LEGEND IsoPulse Fusion Universal Volume Trend Buy Sell RadarLEGEND IsoPulse Fusion • Universal Volume Trend Buy Sell Radar
One line summary
LEGEND IsoPulse Fusion reads intent from price and volume together, learns which features matter most on your symbol, blends them into a single signed Fusion line in a stable unit range, and emits clear Buy Sell Close events with a structure gate and a liquidity safety gate so you act only when the tape is favorable.
What this script is and why it exists
Many traders keep separate windows for trend, volume, volatility, and regime filters. The result can feel fragmented. This script merges two complementary engines into one consistent view that is easy to read and simple to act on.
LEGEND Tensor estimates directional quality from five causally computed features that are normalized for stationarity. The features are Flow, Tail Pressure with Volume Mix, Path Curvature, Streak Persistence, and Entropy Order.
IsoPulse transforms raw volume into two decaying reservoirs for buy effort and sell effort using body location and wick geometry, then measures price travel per unit volume for efficiency, and detects volume bursts with a recency memory.
Both engines are mapped into the same unit range and fused by a regime aware mixer. When the tape is orderly the mixer leans toward trend features. When the tape is messy but a true push appears in volume efficiency with bursts the mixer allows IsoPulse to speak louder. The outcome is a single Fusion line that lives in a familiar range with calm behavior in quiet periods and expressive pushes when energy concentrates.
What makes it original and useful
Two reservoir volume split . The script assigns a portion of the bar volume to up effort and down effort using body location and wick geometry together. Effort decays through time using a forgetting factor so memory is present without becoming sticky.
Efficiency of move . Price travel per unit volume is often more informative than raw volume or raw range. The script normalizes both sides and centers the efficiency so it becomes signed fuel when multiplied by flow skew.
Burst detection with recency memory . Percent rank of volume highlights bursts. An exponential memory of how recently bursts clustered converts isolated blips into useful context.
Causal adaptive weighting . The LEGEND features do not receive static weights. The script learns, causally, which features have correlated with future returns on your symbol over a rolling window. Only positive contributions are allowed and weights are normalized for interpretability.
Regime aware fusion . Entropy based order and persistence create a mixer that blends IsoPulse with LEGEND. You see a single line rather than two competing panels, which reduces decision conflict.
How to read the screen in seconds
Fusion area . The pane fills above and below zero with a soft gradient. Deeper fill means stronger conviction. The white Fusion line sits on top for precise crossings.
Entry guides and exit guides . Two entry guides draw symmetrically at the active fused entry level. Two exit guides sit inside at a fraction of the entry. Think of them as an adaptive envelope.
Letters . B prints once when the script flips from flat to long. S prints once when the script flips from flat to short. C prints when a held position ends on the appropriate side. T prints when the structure gate first opens. A prints when the liquidity safety flag first appears.
Price bar paint . Bars tint green while long and red while short on the chart to mirror your virtual position.
HUD . A compact dashboard in the corner shows Fusion, IsoPulse, LEGEND, active entry and exit levels, regime status, current virtual position, and the vacuum z value with its avoid threshold.
What signals actually mean
Buy . A Buy prints when the Fusion line crosses above the active entry level while gates are open and the previous state was flat.
Sell . A Sell prints when the Fusion line crosses below the negative entry level while gates are open and the previous state was flat.
Close . A Close prints when Fusion cools back inside the exit envelope or when an opposite cross would occur or when a gate forces a stop, and the previous state was a hold.
Gates . The Trend gate requires sufficient entropy order or significant persistence. The Avoid gate uses a liquidity vacuum z score. Gates exist to protect you from weak tape and poor liquidity.
Inputs and practical tuning
Every input has a tooltip in the script. This section provides a concise reference that you can keep in mind while you work.
Setup
Core window . Controls statistics across features. Scalping often prefers the thirties or low fifties. Intraday often prefers the fifties to eighties. Swing often prefers the eighties to low hundreds. Smaller responds faster with more noise. Larger is calmer.
Smoothing . Short EMA on noisy features. A small value catches micro shifts. A larger value reduces whipsaw.
Fusion and thresholds
Weight lookback . Sample size for weight learning. Use at least five times the horizon. Larger is slower and more confident. Smaller is nimble and more reactive.
Weight horizon . How far ahead return is measured to assess feature value. Smaller favors quick reversion impulses. Larger favors continuation.
Adaptive thresholds . Entry and exit levels from rolling percentiles of the absolute LEGEND score. This self scales across assets and timeframes.
Entry percentile . Eighty selects the top quintile of pushes. Lower to seventy five for more signals. Raise for cleanliness.
Exit percentile . Mid fifties keeps trades honest without overstaying. Sixty holds longer with wider give back.
Order threshold . Minimum structure to trade. Zero point fifteen is a reasonable start. Lower to trade more. Raise to filter chop.
Avoid if Vac z . Liquidity safety level. One point two five is a good default on liquid markets. Thin markets may prefer a slightly higher setting to avoid permanent avoid mode.
IsoPulse
Iso forgetting per bar . Memory for the two reservoirs. Values near zero point nine eight to zero point nine nine five work across many symbols.
Wick weight in effort split . Balance between body location and wick geometry. Values near zero point three to zero point six capture useful behavior.
Efficiency window . Travel per volume window. Lower for snappy symbols. Higher for stability.
Burst percent rank window . Window for percent rank of volume. Around one hundred to three hundred covers most use cases.
Burst recency half life . How long burst clusters matter. Lower for quick fades. Higher for cluster memory.
IsoPulse gain . Pre compression gain before the atan mapping. Tune until the Fusion line lives inside a calm band most of the time with expressive spikes on true pushes.
Continuation and Reversal guides . Visual rails for IsoPulse that help you sense continuation or exhaustion zones. They do not force events.
Entry sensitivity and exit fraction
Entry sensitivity . Loose multiplies the fused entry level by a smaller factor which prints more trades. Strict multiplies by a larger factor which selects fewer and cleaner trades. Balanced is neutral.
Exit fraction . Exit level relative to the entry level in fused unit space. Values around one half to two thirds fit most symbols.
Visuals and UX
Columns and line . Use both to see context and precise crossings. If you present a very clean chart you can turn columns off and keep the line.
HUD . Keep it on while you learn the script. It teaches you how the gates and thresholds respond to your market.
Letters . B S C T A are informative and compact. For screenshots you can toggle them off.
Debug triggers . Show raw crosses even when gates block entries. This is useful when you tune the gates. Turn them off for normal use.

How to connect signals to your risk plan
This is an indicator. You remain in control of orders and risk.
Stops . A simple choice is an ATR multiple measured on your chart timeframe. Intraday often prefers one point two five to one point five ATR. Swing often prefers one point five to two ATR. Adjust to symbol behavior and personal risk tolerance.
Exits . The script already prints a Close when Fusion cools inside the exit envelope. If you prefer targets you can mirror the entry envelope distance and convert that to points or percent in your own plan.
Position size . Fixed fractional or fixed risk per trade remains a sound baseline. One percent or less per trade is a common starting point for testing.
Sessions and news . Even with self scaling, some traders prefer to skip the first minutes after an open or scheduled news. Gate with your own session logic if needed.
Limitations and honest notes
No look ahead . The script is causal. The adaptive learner uses a shifted correlation, crosses are evaluated without peeking into the future, and no lookahead security calls are used. If you enable intrabar calculations a letter may appear then disappear before the close if the condition fails. This is normal for any cross based logic in real time.
No performance promises . Markets change. This is a decision aid, not a prediction machine. It will not win every sequence and it cannot guarantee statistical outcomes.
No dependence on other indicators . The chart should remain clean. You can add personal tools in private use but publications should keep the example chart readable.
Standard candles only for public signals . Non standard chart types can change event timing and produce unrealistic sequences. Use regular candles for demonstrations and publications.
Internal logic walkthrough
LEGEND feature block
Flow . Current return normalized by ATR then smoothed by a short EMA. This gives directional intent scaled to recent volatility.
Tail pressure with volume mix . The relative sizes of upper and lower wicks inside the high to low range produce a tail asymmetry. A volume based mix can emphasize wick information when volume is meaningful.
Path curvature . Second difference of close normalized by ATR and smoothed. This captures changes in impulse shape that can precede pushes or fades.
Streak persistence . Up and down close streaks are counted and netted. The result is normalized for the window length to keep behavior stable across symbols.
Entropy order . Shannon entropy of the probability of an up close. Lower entropy means more order. The value is oriented by Flow to preserve sign.
Causal weights . Each feature becomes a z score. A shifted correlation against future returns over the horizon produces a positive weight per feature. Weights are normalized so they sum to one for clarity. The result is angle mapped into a compact unit.
IsoPulse block
Effort split . The script estimates up effort and down effort per bar using both body location and wick geometry. Effort is integrated through time into two reservoirs using a forgetting factor.
Skew . The reservoir difference over the sum yields a stable skew in a known range. A short EMA smooths it.
Efficiency . Move size divided by average volume produces travel per unit volume. Normalization and centering around zero produce a symmetric measure.
Bursts and recency . Percent rank of volume highlights bursts. An exponential function of bars since last burst adds the notion of cluster memory.
IsoPulse unit . Skew multiplied by centered efficiency then scaled by the burst factor produces the raw IsoPulse that is angle mapped into the unit range.
Fusion and events
Regime factor . Entropy order and streak persistence form a mixer. Low structure favors IsoPulse. Higher structure favors LEGEND. The blend is convex so it remains interpretable.
Blended guides . Entry and exit guides are blended in the same way as the line so they stay consistent when regimes change. The envelope does not jump unexpectedly.
Virtual position . The script maintains state. Buy and Sell require a cross while flat and gates open. Close requires an exit or force condition while holding. Letters print once at the state change.
Disclosures
This script and description are educational. They do not constitute investment advice. Markets involve risk. You are responsible for your own decisions and for compliance with local rules. The logic is causal and does not look ahead. Signals on non standard chart types can be misleading and are not recommended for publication. When you test a strategy wrapper, use realistic commission and slippage, moderate risk per trade, and enough trades to form a meaningful sample, then document those assumptions if you share results.
Closing thoughts
Clarity builds confidence. The Fusion line gives a single view of intent. The letters communicate action without clutter. The HUD confirms context at a glance. The gates protect you from weak tape and poor liquidity. Tune it to your instrument, observe it across regimes, and use it as a consistent lens rather than a prediction oracle. The goal is not to trade every wiggle. The goal is to pick your spots with a calm process and to stand aside when the tape is not inviting.

Composite Stochastic Oscillator (CSO) [SharpStrat]Composite Stochastic Oscillator (CSO)
The Composite Stochastic Oscillator (CSO) is a refined momentum tool designed to improve on the limitations of the traditional stochastic indicator. Standard stochastics are often too sensitive, producing choppy signals and frequent false turns. CSO tackles this problem by combining multiple stochastic calculations, each with different lengths and smoothing settings, into a single, balanced output.
The goal of combining these stochastic variants is to create a more stable and reliable reading of market momentum. Each version of the stochastic captures different aspects of price behavior like shorter ones react faster, while longer ones filter noise. CSO brings them together mathematically to form a composite oscillator that reacts smoothly and consistently across varying market conditions. This makes it a useful improvement over the standard stochastic, providing traders with a more dependable signal while retaining the familiar interpretation framework.
How It Works
Calculates five independent stochastic oscillators with customizable K, D, and slowing parameters.
Each stochastic contributes to the final composite value according to its assigned weight, allowing the user to emphasize faster or slower reactions.
The resulting composite K is then smoothed into a D line using a chosen moving average method (SMA, EMA, WMA, or RMA).
The oscillator is plotted along with optional overbought/oversold levels and a color fill to enhance visual interpretation.
A compact on-chart table displays the current K and D readings for quick reference.
Comparison with normal Stochastic
Compared to a standard stochastic, the CSO generally produces smoother lines and fewer false flips. As evident in the comparison chart, this improves upon the normal stochastic by reducing noise and making signals more reliable, although results depend on parameter settings too.
How To Use It
Use the CSO exactly like a normal stochastic: look for crossovers, overbought/oversold zones, and divergences.
In practice, CSO should provides smoother and more consistent signals than the regular stochastic, especially in sideways or volatile markets.
When plotted beside a standard stochastic, you’ll notice CSO avoids many of the false reversals that clutter traditional readings.
Customization Options
Choice of smoothing method (SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA).
Full control over each stochastic component’s parameters and weights.
Adjustable overbought/oversold levels and display preferences.
Option to enable or disable the on-chart table and zone fills.
Note
This indicator is shared purely for educational and research purposes. It is not financial advice and should not be treated as a ready-made trading system.
I encourage you to experiment with different parameter values (periods, weights, smoothing) to explore how the behavior changes and to learn from the results.
Continuation Suite v1 — 5m/15mContinuation Suite v1 — 5m/15m (Non-Repainting, S/R + Trend Continuation)
What it does
Continuation Suite v1 is a practical intraday toolkit that combines non-repainting trend-continuation signals with auto-built Support/Resistance (S/R) from confirmed pivots. It’s designed for fast, liquid names on 5m charts with an optional 15m higher-timeframe (HTF) overlay. You get: stacked-EMA bias, disciplined pullback+reclaim entries, optional volume/volatility gates, a “Strong” signal tier, solid S/R lines or zones, and a compact dashboard for fast reads.
⸻
Why traders use it
• Clear bias using fast/mid/slow EMA stacking.
• Actionable entries that require a pullback, a reclaim, and (optionally) a minor break of prior extremes.
• Signal quality gates (volume vs SMA, ATR%, ADX/DI alignment, EMA spacing, slope).
• Non-repainting logic when “Confirm on Close” = ON. Intrabar previews show what’s forming, but confirmed signals only print on bar close.
• S/R that matters: confirmed-pivot lines or ATR-sized zones, optional HTF overlay, and auto de-dup to avoid clutter.
⸻
Signal construction (no magic, just rules)
Bullish continuation (base):
1. Trend: EMA fast > EMA mid > EMA slow
2. Pullback: price pulls into the stack (lowest low or close vs EMA fast/mid over a lookback)
3. Reclaim: close > EMA fast and close > open
4. Break filter (optional): current bar takes out the prior bar’s high
5. Filters: volume > SMA (if enabled) and ATR% ≤ max (if enabled)
6. Cooldown: a minimum bar gap between signals
Bearish continuation (base): mirror of the above.
Strong signals: base conditions plus ADX ≥ threshold, DI alignment (DI+>DI- for longs; DI->DI+ for shorts), minimum EMA-spacing %, and minimum fast-EMA slope.
Reference stops:
• Longs: lowest low over the pullback lookback
• Shorts: highest high over the pullback lookback
Alerts are included for: Bullish Continuation, Bearish Continuation, STRONG Bullish, STRONG Bearish.
⸻
S/R engine (current TF + optional HTF)
• Builds S/R from confirmed pivots only (left/right bars).
• Choose Lines (midlines) or Zones (ATR-sized).
• Zones merge when a new pivot lands near an existing zone’s mid (ATR-scaled epsilon).
• Touches counter tracks significance; you can require a minimum to draw.
• HTF overlay (default 15m) draws separate lines/zones with tiny TF tags on the right.
• De-dup option hides current-TF zones that sit too close to HTF zones (ATR-scaled), reducing overlap.
• Freeze on Close (optional) keeps arrays stable intrabar; snapshots show levels immediately as bars open.
⸻
Presets
• Auto: Detects QQQ-like tickers (QQQ, QLD, QID) or SoFi; else defaults to Custom.
• QQQ: Tighter ATR% and EMA settings geared to index-ETF behavior.
• SoFi: Wider ATR allowances and longer mid/slow for single-name behavior.
• Custom: Expose all key inputs to tune for your product.
⸻
Dashboard (top-right)
• Preset in use
• Bias (Bullish CONT / Bearish CONT / Neutral)
• Strong (Yes/No)
• Volatility (ATR% bucket)
• Trend (ADX bucket)
• HTF timeframe tag
• Volume (bucket or “off”)
• Signals mode (Close-Confirmed vs Intrabar)
⸻
Inputs you’ll actually adjust
Trend/Signals
• Fast/Mid/Slow EMA lengths
• Pullback lookback, Min bars between signals
• Volume filter (vol > SMA N)
• ATR% max filter (cap excessive volatility)
• Require break of prior bar’s high/low
• “Strong” gates: min EMA slope, min EMA spacing %, ADX length & threshold
Support/Resistance
• Lines vs Zones
• Pivot left/right bars
• Extend left/right (bars)
• Max pivots kept (current & HTF)
• Zone width (× ATR), Merge epsilon (× ATR), Min gap (× ATR)
• Min touches, Max zones per side near price
• De-dup current TF vs HTF (× ATR)
Repainting control
• Confirm on Close: when ON, signals/SR finalize on bar close (non-repainting)
• Freeze on Close: freeze S/R intrabar with snapshot updates
• Show previews: translucent intrabar labels for what’s forming
⸻
How to use it (straightforward)
1. Load on 5-minute chart (baseline). Keep Confirm on Close ON if you hate repainting.
2. Use Bias + Strong + S/R context. If a long prints into HTF resistance, you have information.
3. Manage risk off the reference stop (pullback extreme). If ATR% reads “Great,” widen expectations; if “Poor,” size down or pass.
4. Alerts: wire the four alert types to your workflow.
⸻
Notes and constraints
• Designed for liquid symbols. Thin books and synthetic “volume” will degrade the volume gate.
• S/R is pivot-based. On very choppy tape, touch counts help. Increase min touches or switch to Lines to declutter.
• If your chart timeframe isn’t 5m, behavior changes because lengths are in bars, not minutes. Tune lengths accordingly.
⸻
Disclaimers
This is a research tool. No signals are guaranteed. Markets change, outliers happen, slippage is real. Nothing here is financial advice—use your own judgment and risk management.

Swing H1 + M15 ComboThis indicator only use to H1 & M15 timeframe
✅ Entry Guidelines
Identify the Trend (H1 Swing Call)
A confirmed Swing Buy on H1 sets the trend to bullish.
A confirmed Swing Sell on H1 sets the trend to bearish.
The trend only changes when a new confirmed swing signal closes on H1.
Confirm with M15
On M15, wait for a buy signal if the H1 trend is bullish.
On M15, wait for a sell signal if the H1 trend is bearish.
✅ How It Works
H1 Swing Calls define the overall trend direction (bullish or bearish).
M15 CE Signals confirm short-term entries in line with the H1 trend.
A trade setup is only valid when both timeframes agree.
📈 Entry Strategy
Buy Setup:
H1 confirms a Swing Buy trend
M15 prints a CE Buy signal
Stop loss: below nearest swing low / structure
Sell Setup:
H1 confirms a Swing Sell trend
M15 prints a CE Sell signal
Stop loss: above nearest swing high / structure
Swing Failure Pattern SuvorovIndicator: Logic-based Swing Failure Pattern (SFP)
What is the logic of my indicator based on and what makes it unique:
1. The indicator can calculate extreme candles that close with huge shadows and a small body and it works on any timeframe.
2. The indicator analyzes the volumes on which the desired bar was closed. This function is customizable. That is, you can build a search for signals according to your trading strategy, based on the number of volumes. What does this mean - you select the number of previous bars where the indicator calculates the average value and based on these numbers, you can set up: how many times the desired candle should be larger than the previous average volume.
3. Since SFP is based on the removal of important liquidity, the search for such situations occurs from swing structures (swing high/low). When these parameters are found on the chart (on history), the indicator draws the situation and shows where important liquidity was removed and why the trading situation appeared right now.
4. The indicator gives recommendations on possible takes and stops.
The structure of takes has a built-in logic for searching for previous swings to remove liquidity, as well as searching for imbalances to cover them (50 and 100%).
5. For TP (Take Profit): there are 3 TPthat can be adjusted to your trading strategy (Risk/Profit). For example: you always trade from 2 to 1 on the 1st Take, 3 to 1 on the second, 5 to 1 on the third: you can set all this in the indicator and all your targets will be detected by the indicator, taking into account the logic of searching for important ranges. If, for example, in your 3 to 1 range there are no important zones for TP, then the indicator writes that NaN (not found).
6. The indicator works on any timeframe.
7. The indicator has a built-in RSI logic, which comes as an additional function to the indicator. If this function is enabled, then trading situations are detected only when there is a divergence (from the swing point to the extreme bar that has formed).
Trade Holding Time Background HighlighterTrade Holding Time Background Highlighter
This script visually highlights the chart background based on how old each bar is relative to the current time. It’s designed for crypto futures traders (and other active traders) who want to quickly see whether price action falls inside a day trading window, a swing trading window, or is considered older history.
⸻
🔑 Features
• Dynamic Background Highlighting
• Day Trader Zone (default = last 24 hours, light green).
• Swing Trader Zone (default = last 2 weeks, light yellow).
• Older Zone (beyond 2 weeks, light gray).
• Customizable Colors
• Choose your own background colors for each zone.
• Adjust opacity to make shading subtle or bold.
• Adjustable Timeframes
• Change day trading hours (default: 24 hours).
• Change swing trading window (default: 14 days).
• Simple, Intuitive Design
• Instantly see whether the current market structure is suitable for scalps/day trades, swing trades, or simply part of older price action.
⸻
🎯 Why Use This?
As a futures/perpetual trader, knowing the context of price action is crucial:
• Scalpers/Day Traders focus on the most recent 24h.
• Swing Traders look back 1–2 weeks.
• Anything older often has less weight for short-term setups.
This script highlights those zones automatically, saving you time and giving clarity on whether you’re trading inside a fresh opportunity window or old, less relevant price action.
Sniper Swing — Short TF (Clean Signals) [v6]📘 How to Use the Sniper Swing Indicator
1. What It Does
It looks for short-term swing breaks in price.
It uses an oscillator (RSI/Stoch) and swing pivots to confirm moves.
It gives you 3 clear signals only:
BUY → Enter long (expecting price to go up).
Gay bear → Enter short (expecting price to go down).
EXIT → Close your trade (long or short).
Candles also change color:
Green = in a BUY trade.
Red = in a Gay bear trade.
Neutral (gray/none) = no trade.
2. When to Use
Works best on short timeframes (1m–5m) for scalping/intraday.
Use on liquid markets (MES/ES, NQ, SPY, BTC, ETH).
Avoid dead hours with no volume (like overnight futures lull or midday chop).
3. How to Trade With It
A. BUY trade
Wait for a BUY triangle below the candle.
Confirm:
Candle turned green.
Price broke a recent swing high.
Oscillator shows strength (indicator does this for you).
Enter long at the close of that candle.
Place your stop-loss:
At the yellow stop line (auto trailing stop), or
Just below the last swing low.
Stay in while candles are green.
Exit when:
An orange X appears, or
Price hits your stop.
B. Gay bear (short) trade
Wait for a Gay bear triangle above the candle.
Confirm:
Candle turned red.
Price broke a recent swing low.
Oscillator shows weakness.
Enter short at the close of that candle.
Place stop-loss:
At the yellow stop line, or
Just above the last swing high.
Stay in while candles are red.
Exit on an orange X or stop hit.
4. Pro Tips for New Traders
Only take one signal at a time → don’t double dip.
Quality > Quantity: ignore weak, sideways markets. Best signals happen during trends.
Start small: trade micros (MES) or small position sizes.
Use alerts: set TradingView alerts for BUY/Gay bear/EXIT so you don’t miss setups.
Think of the indicator like a navigator: it tells you the likely path, but you’re the driver → always manage risk.
5. Quick Mental Checklist
Signal? (BUY or Gay bear triangle)
Confirmed? (candle color + swing break)
Enter? (on close)
Stop? (yellow line or swing)
Exit? (orange X or stop)

Recent Range DetectorOverview
The Recent Range Detector is a specialized indicator designed to identify when an asset is currently range-bound, providing traders with clear support and resistance levels for range trading strategies. Unlike traditional indicators that focus on trend detection, this tool specifically answers the question: "Is the price range-bound right now, and what are the exact trading levels?"
Key Features
✅ Smart Range Detection - Uses a multi-factor scoring system to identify legitimate ranges
✅ Dynamic Support/Resistance Levels - Automatically calculates and displays key trading levels
✅ Range Quality Scoring - Provides confidence levels (Strong/Moderate/Weak Range)
✅ Touch Validation - Counts actual price touches to confirm range reliability
✅ Breakout Detection - Alerts when price exits the established range
✅ Visual Clarity - Clean boxes, lines, and labels for easy interpretation
How It Works
The indicator analyses recent price action using three core metrics:
Touch Quality (40%) - How many times price has respected support/resistance levels
Containment Quality (40%) - What percentage of recent bars stayed within the range
Recent Respect (20%) - Whether the latest price action confirms the range
These combine into a Range Score (0-1) that determines range strength and reliability.
Settings & Parameters
Range Lookback Period (Default: 15)
Number of bars to analyse for range detection
Shorter periods = more responsive to recent ranges
Longer periods = more stable, fewer false signals
Range Tolerance (Default: 2.0%)
Tolerance for price touches around exact highs/lows
Lower values = stricter range requirements
Higher values = more flexible range detection
Minimum Touches (Default: 3)
Required number of support/resistance touches for valid range
Higher values = more confirmed ranges, fewer signals
Lower values = more sensitive, earlier detection
Visual Options
Show Range Box: Displays the range boundaries
Show Support/Resistance Lines: Extends levels into the future
Understanding the Output
Range Score (0.000 - 1.000)
0.7+ = Strong Range (Green) - High confidence range trading setup
0.5-0.7 = Moderate Range (Yellow) - Decent range with some caution
0.3-0.5 = Weak Range (Orange) - Low confidence, be careful
<0.3 = Not Ranging - Avoid range trading strategies
Range Status Classifications
Strong Range - Perfect for range trading strategies
Moderate Range - Good range with normal risk
Weak Range - Marginal range, use smaller positions
Not Ranging - Price is trending or too choppy for range trading
Key Metrics in Info Table
Range Size (%) - Size of the range relative to price level
5-15% = Ideal range size for most strategies
<5% = Tight range, lower profit potential
>15% = Wide range, higher profit potential but more risk
Support/Resistance Levels - Exact price levels for entries/exits
Use these as your key trading levels
Support = potential buy zone
Resistance = potential sell zone
Total Touches - Number of times price respected the levels
3-5 touches = Newly formed range
6-10 touches = Well-established range
10+ touches = Very strong, reliable range
Price Position (%) - Current location within the range
0-20% = Near support (potential long opportunity)
80-100% = Near resistance (potential short opportunity)
40-60% = Middle of range (wait for better entry)
Visual Elements
Range Box
Green Box = Strong Range (Score ≥ 0.7)
Yellow Box = Moderate Range (Score 0.5-0.7)
Orange Box = Weak Range (Score 0.3-0.5)

Expansion Triangle [TradingFinder] MegaPhone Broadening🔵 Introduction
The Expanding Triangle, also known as the Broadening Formation, is one of the key technical analysis patterns that clearly reflects growing market volatility, increasing indecision among participants, and the potential for sharp price explosions.
This pattern is typically defined by a sequence of higher highs and lower lows, forming within two diverging trendlines. Unlike traditional triangles that converge to a breakout point, the expanding triangle pattern becomes wider over time, leaving no precise apex for a breakout to occur.
From a price action perspective, the pattern represents a prolonged tug-of-war between buyers and sellers, where neither side has taken control yet. Each aggressive swing opens the door to new opportunities whether it's a trend reversal, range trading, or a momentum breakout. This dual nature makes the pattern highly versatile across market conditions, from exhausted trend ends to volatile consolidation zones.
The custom-built indicator for this pattern uses a combination of smart algorithms and detailed analysis of swing dynamics to automatically detect expanding triangles and highlight low-risk entry points.
Traders can use this tool to capitalize on high-probability setups from shorting near the upper edge of the structure with confirmation, to trading bearish breakouts during trend continuations, or entering long positions near the lower boundary during bullish reversals. The chart examples included in this article demonstrate these three highly practical trading scenarios in live market conditions.
A major advantage of this indicator lies in its structural filtering engine, which analyzes the behavior of each price leg in the triangle. With four adjustable filter levels from Very Aggressive, which highlights all potential patterns, to Very Defensive, which only triggers when price actually touches the triangle's trendlines the indicator ensures that only structurally sound and verified setups appear on the chart, reducing noise and false signals significantly.
Long Setup :
Short Setup :
🔵 How to Use
The pattern typically forms in conditions of heightened uncertainty and volatility, where price swings generate a series of higher highs and lower lows. The expanding triangle consists of three key legs bounded by diverging trendlines. The indicator intelligently analyzes each leg's direction and angle to determine whether a valid pattern is forming.
At the core of the indicator’s logic is its leg filtering system, which controls the quality of the pattern and filters out weak or noisy setups. Four structural filter modes are available to suit different trading styles and risk preferences. In Very Aggressive mode, filters are disabled, and the indicator detects any pattern purely based on the sequence of swing points.
This mode is ideal for traders who want to see everything and apply their own discretion.
In Aggressive mode, the indicator checks whether each new leg extends no more than twice the length of the previous one. If a leg overshoots excessively, the structure is invalidated.
In Defensive mode, the filter enforces a minimum movement requirement each leg must move at least 2% of the previous one. This prevents the formation of shallow, weak patterns that visually resemble triangles but lack substance.
The strictest setting, Very Defensive, combines all previous filters and additionally requires the price to physically touch the triangle’s trendlines before issuing a signal. This ensures that setups only appear when real market interaction with key structural levels has occurred, not based on assumptions or geometry alone. This mode is ideal for traders seeking maximum precision and minimal risk.
🟣 Bullish Setup
A bullish setup within the Expanding Triangle pattern occurs when price revisits the lower support boundary after a series of broad swings typically near the third leg of the formation. This area often represents a shift in momentum, where sellers begin to lose strength and buyers prepare to take control.
Ideally, the setup is accompanied by a bullish reversal candle (e.g. doji, pin bar, or engulfing) near the lower trendline. If the Very Defensive filter is active, the indicator will only issue a signal if price makes a confirmed touch on the trendline and reacts from that level. This significantly improves signal accuracy and filters out premature entries.
After confirmation, traders may choose to enter a long position on the bullish candle or shortly afterward. A logical stop-loss is placed just below the recent swing low within the pattern. The target can be set at or near the upper trendline, or projected using the full height of the triangle added to the breakout point. On higher timeframes, this reversal often marks the beginning of a strong uptrend.
🟣 Bearish Setup
A bearish setup forms when price climbs toward the upper resistance trendline, usually as the third leg completes. This is where buyers often begin to show exhaustion, and sellers step in with strength providing an ideal low-risk entry point for short positions.
As with the bullish setup, if the Candle Confirmation filter is enabled, the indicator will only show a signal when a bearish reversal candle forms at the point of contact. If Defensive or Very Defensive filters are also active, the setup must meet strict criteria of proportionate leg movement and an actual trendline touch to qualify.
Once confirmed, traders can enter on the reversal candle, placing a stop-loss slightly above the recent high. The target can be set at the lower trendline or calculated based on the triangle's full height, projected downward. This setup is particularly useful at the end of weak bullish trends or in volatile market tops.
🔵 Settings
🟣 Logic Settings
Pivot Period : Defines how many bars are analyzed to identify swing highs and lows. Higher values detect larger, slower structures, while lower values respond to faster patterns. The default value of 13 offers a balanced sensitivity.
Pattern Filter :
Very Aggressive : Detects all patterns based on point sequence with no structural checks.
Aggressive : Ensures each leg is no more than 2x the size of the previous one.
Defensive : Requires each leg to be at least 2% the size of the previous leg.
Very Defensive : The strictest level; only confirms patterns when price touches trendlines.
Candle Confirmation : When enabled, the indicator requires a valid confirmation candle (doji, pin bar, engulfing) at the interaction point with the trendline before issuing a signal. This reduces false entries and improves entry precision.
🟣 Alert Settings
Alert : Enables alerts for SSS.
Message Frequency : Determines the frequency of alerts. Options include 'All' (every function call), 'Once Per Bar' (first call within the bar), and 'Once Per Bar Close' (final script execution of the real-time bar). Default is 'Once per Bar'.
Show Alert Time by Time Zone : Configures the time zone for alert messages. Default is 'UTC'.
🔵 Conclusion
The Expanding Triangle pattern, with its wide structure and volatility-driven nature, represents chaos but also opportunity. For traders who can read its behavior, it provides some of the most powerful setups for reversals, breakouts, and range-based trades. While the pattern may seem messy at first glance, it is built on clear logic and when properly detected, it offers high-probability opportunities.
This indicator doesn’t just draw expanding triangles it intelligently evaluates their structural quality, validates price interaction through candle confirmation, and allows the trader to fine-tune the detection logic through adjustable filter levels. Whether you’re a reversal trader looking for a turning point, or a breakout trader hunting momentum, this tool adapts to your strategy.
In volatile or uncertain markets, where fakeouts and sudden shifts are common, this indicator can become a cornerstone of your trading system helping you turn volatility into structured, high-quality opportunities.

Auto AI Trendlines [TradingFinder] Clustering & Filtering Trends🔵 Introduction
Auto AI trendlines Clustering & Filtering Trends Indicator, draws a variety of trendlines. This auto plotting trendline indicator plots precise trendlines and regression lines, capturing trend dynamics.
Trendline trading is the strongest strategy in the financial market.
Regression lines, unlike trendlines, use statistical fitting to smooth price data, revealing trend slopes. Trendlines connect confirmed pivots, ensuring structural accuracy. Regression lines adapt dynamically.
The indicator’s ascending trendlines mark bullish pivots, while descending ones signal bearish trends. Regression lines extend in steps, reflecting momentum shifts. As the trend is your friend, this tool aligns traders with market flow.
Pivot-based trendlines remain fixed once confirmed, offering reliable support and resistance zones. Regression lines, adjusting to price changes, highlight short-term trend paths. Both are vital for traders across asset classes.
🔵 How to Use
There are four line types that are seen in the image below; Precise uptrend (green) and downtrend (red) lines connect exact price extremes, while Pivot-based uptrend and downtrend lines use significant swing points, both remaining static once formed.
🟣 Precise Trendlines
Trendlines only form after pivot points are confirmed, ensuring reliability. This reduces false signals in choppy markets. Regression lines complement with real-time updates.
The indicator always draws two precise trendlines on confirmed pivot points, one ascending and one descending. These are colored distinctly to mark bullish and bearish trends. They remain fixed, serving as structural anchors.
🟣 Dynamic Regression Lines
Regression lines, adjusting dynamically with price, reflect the latest trend slope for real-time analysis. Use these to identify trend direction and potential reversals.
Regression lines, updated dynamically, reflect real-time price trends and extend in steps. Ascending lines are green, descending ones orange, with shades differing from trendlines. This aids visual distinction.
🟣 Bearish Chart
A Bullish State emerges when uptrend lines outweigh or match downtrend lines, with recent upward momentum signaling a potential rise. Check the trend count in the state table to confirm, using it to plan long positions.
🟣 Bullish Chart
A Bearish State is indicated when downtrend lines dominate or equal uptrend lines, with recent downward moves suggesting a potential drop. Review the state table’s trend count to verify, guiding short position entries. The indicator reflects this shift for strategic planning.
🟣 Alarm
Set alerts for state changes to stay informed of Bullish or Bearish shifts without constant monitoring. For example, a transition to Bullish State may signal a buying opportunity. Toggle alerts On or Off in the settings.
🟣 Market Status
A table summarizes the chart’s status, showing counts of ascending and descending lines. This real-time overview simplifies trend monitoring. Check it to assess market bias instantly.
Monitor the table to track line counts and trend dominance.
A higher count of ascending lines suggests bullish bias. This helps traders align with the prevailing trend.
🔵 Settings
Number of Trendlines : Sets total lines (max 10, min 3), balancing chart clarity and trend coverage.
Max Look Back : Defines historical bars (min 50) for pivot detection, ensuring robust trendlines.
Pivot Range : Sets pivot sensitivity (min 2), adjusting trendline precision to market volatility.
Show Table Checkbox : Toggles display of a table showing ascending/descending line counts.
Alarm : Enable or Disable the alert.
🔵 Conclusion
The multi slopes indicator, blending pivot-based trendlines and dynamic regression lines, maps market trends with precision. Its dual approach captures both structural and short-term momentum.
Customizable settings, like trendline count and pivot range, adapt to diverse trading styles. The real-time table simplifies trend monitoring, enhancing efficiency. It suits forex, stocks, and crypto markets.
While trendlines anchor long-term trends, regression lines track intraday shifts, offering versatility. Contextual analysis, like price action, boosts signal reliability. This indicator empowers data-driven trading decisions.
Swing-Based Volatility IndexSwing-Based Volatility Index
This indicator helps traders quickly determine whether the market has moved enough over the past few hours to justify scalping.
It measures the percentage price swing (high to low) over a configurable time window (e.g., last 4–8 hours) and compares it to a minimum threshold (e.g., 1%).
✅ If the percent move exceeds the threshold → Market is volatile enough to scalp (green background).
🚫 If it's below the threshold → Market is too quiet (red background).
Features:
Adjustable lookback period in hours
Custom threshold for volatility sensitivity
Automatically adapts to the current chart timeframe
This tool is ideal for scalpers and short-term traders who want to avoid entering trades in low-volatility environments.
Suvorov Pro SFP+Indicator: Logic-based Swing Failure Pattern (SFP)
What is the logic of my indicator based on and what makes it unique:
1. The indicator can calculate extreme candles that close with huge shadows and a small body and it works on any timeframe.
2. The indicator analyzes the volumes on which the desired bar was closed. This function is customizable. That is, you can build a search for signals according to your trading strategy, based on the number of volumes. What does this mean - you select the number of previous bars where the indicator calculates the average value and based on these numbers, you can set up: how many times the desired candle should be larger than the previous average volume.
3. Since SFP is based on the removal of important liquidity, the search for such situations occurs from swing structures (swing high/low). When these parameters are found on the chart (on history), the indicator draws the situation and shows where important liquidity was removed and why the trading situation appeared right now.
4. The indicator gives recommendations on possible takes and stops.
The structure of takes has a built-in logic for searching for previous swings to remove liquidity, as well as searching for imbalances to cover them (50 and 100%).
5. For TP (Take Profit): there are 3 TPthat can be adjusted to your trading strategy (Risk/Profit). For example: you always trade from 2 to 1 on the 1st Take, 3 to 1 on the second, 5 to 1 on the third: you can set all this in the indicator and all your targets will be detected by the indicator, taking into account the logic of searching for important ranges. If, for example, in your 3 to 1 range there are no important zones for TP, then the indicator writes that NaN (not found).
6. The indicator works on any timeframe.
7. The indicator has a built-in RSI logic, which comes as an additional function to the indicator. If this function is enabled, then trading situations are detected only when there is a divergence (from the swing point to the extreme bar that has formed).
Compression Patterns (w/ Trend + Proximity Filter)🧠 Description:
This indicator identifies high-probability price compression patterns within trending environments — a setup prized by experienced swing and day traders alike. It combines the classic NR4, NR7, 2-Bar NR, 3-Bar NR, and Inside Day formations with a powerful trend filter and proximity logic to deliver clear, focused signals.
🔍 What's Inside:
▪️ Compression Patterns
The core of this tool lies in the logic of price compression. These patterns signal the market taking a breath — volatility contracts, volume dries up, and price coils like a spring.
When this happens in the right context, the next move is often explosive.
NR4 / NR7: Narrowest range in 4 or 7 bars — excellent for spotting the quiet before the storm.
2-Bar NR / 3-Bar NR: These identify the tightest consecutive 2 or 3-day ranges over the past 20 days — contextually rare and powerful.
Inside Day: A simple but highly effective consolidation pattern, especially when it clusters around key moving averages.
▪️ Trend Filter (EMA Stack)
You could say this is where most indicators fall apart — no context.
This one doesn’t make that mistake.
Signals only fire when the 10 EMA > 20 EMA > 50 EMA, and price is above the 20 EMA. That’s a strong, established uptrend — the only environment where breakouts are statistically favourable.
Why?
Because trend following works.
It may not give you fixed daily returns, but it’s the only strategy with theoretically infinite profit potential. You risk little, trade less, and position yourself for rare but massive moves. That’s the edge.
▪️ Proximity Filter (1 ATR to EMA)
We’ve added another layer of discipline. Signals only fire when price is:
Within 1 ATR of the 10 EMA (if price is above it), or
Within 1 ATR of the 20 EMA (if price is below the 10 EMA)
This ensures you’re not chasing. You’re waiting for tight, controlled pullbacks into dynamic support — exactly where institutions add size, not exit.
⚙️ Fully Customisable:
Toggle visibility of each pattern
Custom colours and transparency for label & background
Adjustable ATR length and multiplier
Change label text if needed (useful for translations or tweaks)
🎯 Ideal Use Case:
Swing trading off the daily chart
Day trading with VWAP/MACD filters (in alternate versions)
Supplementing price action strategies
🔚 Final Word:
This isn’t an “everything scanner.”
It’s a discerning sniper scope for traders who wait patiently for clean trends, tight consolidations, and perfect proximity — then strike.

Auto Support Resistance Channels [TradingFinder] Top/Down Signal🔵 Introduction
In technical analysis, a price channel is one of the most widely used tools for identifying and tracking price trends. A price channel consists of two parallel trendlines, typically drawn from swing highs (resistance) and swing lows (support). These lines define dynamic support and resistance zones and provide a clear framework for interpreting price fluctuations.
Drawing a channel on a price chart allows the analyst to more precisely identify entry points, exit levels, take-profit zones, and stop-loss areas based on how the price behaves within the boundaries of the channel.
Price channels in technical analysis are generally categorized into three types: upward channels with a positive slope, downward channels with a negative slope, and horizontal (range-bound) channels with near-zero slope. Each type offers unique insights into market behavior depending on the price structure and prevailing trend.
Structurally, channels can be formed using either minor or major pivot points. A major channel typically reflects a stronger, more reliable structure that appears on higher timeframes, whereas a minor channel often captures short-term fluctuations or corrective movements within a larger trend.
For instance, a major downward channel may indicate sustained selling pressure across the market, while a minor upward channel could represent a temporary pullback within a broader bearish trend.
The validity of a price channel depends on several factors, including the number of price touches on the channel lines, the symmetry and parallelism of the trendlines, the duration of price movement within the channel, and price behavior around the median line.
When a price channel is broken, it is generally expected that the price will move in the breakout direction by at least the width of the channel. This makes price channels especially useful in breakout analysis.
In the following sections, we will explore the different types of price channels, how to draw them accurately, the structural differences between minor and major channels, and key trade interpretations when price interacts with channel boundaries.
Up Channel :
Down Channel :
🔵 How to Use
A price channel is a practical tool in technical analysis for identifying areas of support, resistance, trend direction, and potential breakout zones. The structure consists of two parallel trendlines within which price fluctuates.
Traders use the relative position of price within the channel to make informed trading decisions. The two primary strategies include range-based trades (buying low, selling high) and breakout trades (entering when price exits the channel).
🟣 Up Channel
In an upward channel, price moves within a positively sloped range. The lower trendline acts as dynamic support, while the upper trendline serves as dynamic resistance. A common strategy involves buying near the lower support and taking profit or selling near the upper resistance.
If price breaks below the lower trendline with strong volume or a decisive candle, it can signal a potential trend reversal. Channels constructed from major pivots generally reflect dominant uptrends, while those based on minor pivots are often corrective structures within a broader bearish movement.
🟣 Down Channel
In a downward channel, price moves between two negatively sloped lines. The upper trendline functions as resistance, and the lower trendline as support. Ideal entry for short trades occurs near the upper boundary, especially when confirmed by bearish price action or a resistance level.
Exit targets are typically located near the lower support. If the upper boundary is broken to the upside, it may be an early sign of a bullish trend reversal. Like upward channels, a major down channel represents broader selling pressure, while a minor one may indicate a brief retracement in a bullish move.
🟣 Range Channel
A horizontal or range-bound channel is characterized by price oscillating between two nearly flat lines. This type of channel typically appears during sideways markets or periods of consolidation.
Traders often buy near the lower boundary and sell near the upper boundary to take advantage of contained volatility. However, fake breakouts are more frequent in range-bound structures, so it is important to wait for confirmation through candlestick signals and volume. A confirmed breakout beyond the channel boundaries can justify entering a trade in the direction of the breakout.
🔵 Settings
Pivot Period :This parameter defines how sensitive the channel detection is. A higher value causes the algorithm to identify major pivot points, resulting in broader and longer-term channels. Lower values focus on minor pivots and create tighter, short-term channels.
🔔 Alerts
Alert Configuration :
Enable or disable the full alert system
Set a custom alert name
Choose the alert frequency: every time, once per bar, or on bar close
Define the time zone for alert timestamps (e.g., UTC)
Channel Alert Types :
Each channel type (Major/Minor, Internal/External, Up/Down) supports two alert types :
Break Alert : Triggered when price breaks above or below the channel boundaries
React Alert : Triggered when price touches and reacts (bounces) off the channel boundary
🎨 Display Settings
For each of the eight channel types, you can customize:
Visibility : show or hide the channel
Auto-delete previous channels when new ones are drawn
Style : line color, thickness, type (solid, dashed, dotted), extension (right only, both sides)
🔵 Conclusion
The price channel is a foundational structure in technical analysis that enables traders to analyze price movement, identify dynamic support and resistance zones, and locate potential entry and exit points with greater precision.
When constructed properly using minor or major pivots, a price channel offers a consistent and intuitive framework for interpreting market behavior—often simpler and more visually clear than many other technical tools.
Understanding the differences between upward, downward, and range-bound channels—as well as recognizing the distinctions between minor and major structures—is critical for selecting the right trading strategy. Upward channels tend to generate buying opportunities, downward channels prioritize short setups, and horizontal channels provide setups for both mean-reversion and breakout trades.
Ultimately, the reliability of a price channel depends on various factors such as the number of touchpoints, the duration of the channel, the parallelism of the lines, and how the price reacts to the median line.
By taking these factors into account, an experienced analyst can effectively use price channels as a powerful tool for trend forecasting and precise trade execution. Although conceptually simple, successful application of price channels requires practice, pattern recognition, and the ability to filter out market noise.

Auto TrendLines [TradingFinder] Support Resistance Signal Alerts🔵 Introduction
The trendline is one of the most essential tools in technical analysis, widely used in financial markets such as Forex, cryptocurrency, and stocks. A trendline is a straight line that connects swing highs or swing lows and visually indicates the market’s trend direction.
Traders use trendlines to identify price structure, the strength of buyers and sellers, dynamic support and resistance zones, and optimal entry and exit points.
In technical analysis, trendlines are typically classified into three categories: uptrend lines (drawn by connecting higher lows), downtrend lines (formed by connecting lower highs), and sideways trends (moving horizontally). A valid trendline usually requires at least three confirmed touchpoints to be considered reliable for trading decisions.
Trendlines can serve as the foundation for a variety of trading strategies, such as the trendline bounce strategy, valid breakout setups, and confluence-based analysis with other tools like candlestick patterns, divergences, moving averages, and Fibonacci levels.
Additionally, trendlines are categorized into internal and external, and further into major and minor levels, each serving unique roles in market structure analysis.
🔵 How to Use
Trendlines are a key component in technical analysis, used to identify market direction, define dynamic support and resistance zones, highlight strategic entry and exit points, and manage risk. For a trendline to be reliable, it must be drawn based on structural principles—not by simply connecting two arbitrary points.
🟣 Selecting Pivot Types Based on Trend Direction
The first step is to determine the market trend: uptrend, downtrend, or sideways.
Then, choose pivot points that match the trend type :
In an uptrend, trendlines are drawn by connecting low pivots, especially higher lows.
In a downtrend, trendlines are formed by connecting high pivots, specifically lower highs.
It is crucial to connect pivots of the same type and structure to ensure the trendline is valid and analytically sound.
🟣 Pivot Classification
This indicator automatically classifies pivot points into two categories :
Major Pivots :
MLL : Major Lower Low
MHL : Major Higher Low
MHH : Major Higher High
MLH : Major Lower High
These define the primary structure of the market and are typically used in broader structural analysis.
Minor Pivots :
mLL: minor Lower Low
mHL: minor Higher Low
mHH: minor Higher High
mLH: minor Lower High
These are used for drawing more precise trendlines within corrective waves or internal price movements.
Example : In a downtrend, drawing a trendline from an MHH to an mHH creates structural inconsistency and introduces noise. Instead, connect points like MHL to MHL or mLH to mLH for a valid trendline.
🟣 Drawing High-Precision Trendlines
To ensure a reliable trendline :
Use pivots of the same classification (Major with Major or Minor with Minor).
Ensure at least three valid contact points (three touches = structural confirmation).
Draw through candles with the least deviation (choose wicks or bodies based on confluence).
Preferably draw from right to left for better alignment with current market behavior.
Use parallel lines to turn a single trendline into a trendline zone, if needed.
🟣 Using Trendlines for Trade Entries
Bounce Entry: When price approaches the trendline and shows signs of reversal (e.g., a reversal candle, divergence, or support/resistance), enter in the direction of the trend with a logical stop-loss.
Breakout Entry: When price breaks through the trendline with strong momentum and a confirmation (such as a retest or break of structure), consider trading in the direction of the breakout.
🟣 Trendline-Based Risk Management
For bounce entries, the stop-loss is placed below the trendline or the last pivot low (in an uptrend).
For breakout entries, the stop-loss is set behind the breakout candle or the last structural level.
A broken trendline can also act as an exit signal from a trade.
🟣 Combining Trendlines with Other Tools (Confluence)
Trendlines gain much more strength when used alongside other analytical tools :
Horizontal support and resistance levels
Moving averages (such as EMA 50 or EMA 200)
Fibonacci retracement zones
Candlestick patterns (e.g., Engulfing, Pin Bar)
RSI or MACD divergences
Market structure breaks (BoS / ChoCH)
🔵 Settings
Pivot Period : This defines how sensitive the pivot detection is. A higher number means the algorithm will identify more significant pivot points, resulting in longer-term trendlines.
Alerts
Alert :
Enable or disable the entire alert system
Set a custom alert name
Choose how often alerts trigger (every time, once per bar, or on bar close)
Select the time zone for alert timestamps (e.g., UTC)
Each trendline type supports two alert types :
Break Alert : Triggered when price breaks the trendline
React Alert : Triggered when price reacts or bounces off the trendline
These alerts can be independently enabled or disabled for all trendline categories (Major/Minor, Internal/External, Up/Down).
Display :
For each of the eight trendline types, you can control :
Whether to show or hide the line
Whether to delete the previous line when a new one is drawn
Color, line style (solid, dashed, dotted), extension direction (e.g., right only), and width
Major lines are typically thicker and more opaque, while minor lines appear thinner and more transparent.
All settings are designed to give the user full control over the appearance, behavior, and alert system of the indicator, without requiring manual drawing or adjustments.
🔵 Conclusion
A trendline is more than just a line on the chart—it is a structural, strategic, and flexible tool in technical analysis that can serve as the foundation for understanding price behavior and making trading decisions. Whether in trending markets or during corrections, trendlines help traders identify market direction, key zones, and high-potential entry and exit points with precision.
The accuracy and effectiveness of a trendline depend on using structurally valid pivot points and adhering to proper market logic, rather than relying on guesswork or personal bias.
This indicator is built to solve that exact problem. It automatically detects and draws multiple types of trendlines based on actual price structure, separating them into Major/Minor and Internal/External categories, and respecting professional analytical principles such as pivot type, trend direction, and structural location.
