Custom SMA Plot It creates a custom indicator named "Custom SMA Plot (CSP)" that overlays on a price chart. The indicator fetches the closing prices and calculates a 14-period simple moving average (SMA) of these prices. This SMA is then visually represented as a blue line, which starts from the SMA value of the bar 100 candles ago and extends to the current bar's SMA value. The line has a thickness of 1 unit.
When price breaks over wave go long.
When price breaks below wave go short.

Elliott Wave with Supertrend Exit - Strategy [presentTrading]## Introduction and How it is Different
The Elliott Wave with Supertrend Exit provides automated detection and validation of Elliott Wave patterns for algorithmic trading. It is designed to objectively identify high-probability wave formations and signal entries based on confirmed impulsive and corrective patterns.
* The Elliott part is mostly referenced from Elliott Wave by @LuxAlgo
Key advantages compared to discretionary Elliott Wave analysis:
- Wave Labeling and Counting: The strategy programmatically identifies swing pivot highs/lows with the Zigzag indicator and analyzes the waves between them. It labels the potential impulsive and corrective patterns as they form. This removes the subjectivity of manual wave counting.
- Pattern Validation: A rules-based engine confirms valid impulsive and corrective patterns by checking relative size relationships and fib ratios. Only confirmed wave counts are plotted and traded.
- Objective Entry Signals: Trades are entered systematically on the start of new impulsive waves in the direction of the trend. Pattern failures invalidate setups and stop out positions.
- Automated Trade Management: The strategy defines specific rules for profit targets at fib extensions, trailing stops at swing points, and exits on Supertrend reversals. This automates the entire trade lifecycle.
- Adaptability: The waveform recognition engine can be tuned by adjusting parameters like Zigzag depth and Supertrend settings. It adapts to evolving market conditions.
ETH 1hr chart
In summary, the strategy brings automation, objectivity and adaptability to Elliott Wave trading - removing subjective interpretation errors and emotional trading biases. It implements a rules-based, algorithmic approach for systematically trading Elliott Wave patterns across markets and timeframes.
## Trading Logic and Rules
The strategy follows specific trading rules based on the detected and validated Elliott Wave patterns.
Entry Rules
- Long entry when a new impulsive bullish (5-wave) pattern forms
- Short entry when a new impulsive bearish (5-wave) pattern forms
The key is entering on the start of a new potential trend wave rather than chasing.
Exit Rules
- Invalidation of wave pattern stops out the trade
- Close long trades on Supertrend downturn
- Close short trades on Supertrend upturn
- Use a stop loss of 10% of entry price (configurable)
Trade Management
- Scale out partial profits at Fibonacci levels
- Move stop to breakeven when price reaches 1.618 extension
- Trail stops below key swing points
- Target exits at next Fibonacci projection level
Risk Management
- Use stop losses on all trades
- Trade only highest probability setups
- Size positions according to chart timeframe
- Avoid overtrading when no clear patterns emerge
## Strategy - How it Works
The core logic follows these steps:
1. Find swing highs/lows with Zigzag indicator
2. Analyze pivot points to detect impulsive 5-wave patterns:
- Waves 1, 3, and 5 should not overlap
- Waves 3 and 5 must be longer than wave 1
- Confirm relative size relationships between waves
3. Validate corrective 3-wave patterns:
- Look for overlapping, choppy waves that retrace the prior impulsive wave
4. Plot validated waves and Fibonacci retracement levels
5. Signal entries when a new impulsive wave pattern forms
6. Manage exits based on pattern failures and Supertrend reversals
Impulsive Wave Validation
The strategy checks relative size relationships to confirm valid impulsive waves.
For uptrends, it ensures:
```
Copy code- Wave 3 is longer than wave 1
- Wave 5 is longer than wave 2
- Waves do not overlap
```
Corrective Wave Validation
The strategy identifies overlapping corrective patterns that retrace the prior impulsive wave within Fibonacci levels.
Pattern Failure Invalidation
If waves fail validation tests, the strategy invalidates the pattern and stops signaling trades.
## Trade Direction
The strategy detects impulsive and corrective patterns in both uptrends and downtrends. Entries are signaled in the direction of the validated wave pattern.
## Usage
- Use on charts showing clear Elliott Wave patterns
- Start with daily or weekly timeframes to gauge overall trend
- Optimize Zigzag and Supertrend settings as needed
- Consider combining with other indicators for confirmation
## Default Settings
- Zigzag Length: 4 bars
- Supertrend Length: 10 bars
- Supertrend Multiplier: 3
- Stop Loss: 10% of entry price
- Trading Direction: Both
Price by Volume ColumnsThis indicator allows you to identify how price changes for a given time period are sensitive to the volume. You will identify these changes as bars in the bottom of the chart. You may see the changes in bars for better understanding of price movements, identify trends. Please take trades at your own risk and discretion
SRTL, 2EMA & TRAMASRTL - Support Resistance and Trend Line with Double EMA and TRAMA
The SRTL indicator is a powerful tool for technical analysis that seamlessly integrates support and resistance levels, trend lines, and moving average signals. It offers traders a comprehensive view of the market's dynamics, making it a valuable addition to any trading toolkit. Here's a concise summary of its key features and functionalities:
Key Features:
- Dynamic Support and Resistance Levels based on Pivot Points
- Trend Lines based on Recent Pivot Points
- Double Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) with adjustable lengths
- Trend Regularity Adaptive Moving Average (TRAMA) for trend identification
- Buy and Sell signals based on the crossover of EMAs
The indicator is composed of 4 main components:
1. Support and resistance levels: The indicator calculates support and resistance levels based on pivot points and a channel width parameter. These levels can be used to identify potential entry and exit points for trades. The script calculates and plots dynamic support and resistance levels based on pivot points. Users can adjust the period for calculating pivot points, loopback period, and S/R strength to customize the levels' sensitivity.
2. Trend Lines: The script identifies and plots trend lines based on recent pivot points. Users can customize the number of pivot points to consider and the start date to begin plotting the trend lines. The script identifies and plots trend lines based on recent pivot points. By adjusting the number of pivot points to consider and the start date, traders can visualize potential trends and assess the market's overall direction. This feature helps traders understand the prevailing market sentiment and make informed trading decisions.
3. Double Exponential Moving Averages (EMA): The script calculates and plots two Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) with customizable lengths. A crossover of these EMAs can be used as a signal for potential trend changes. The study calculates and displays two Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) with adjustable lengths. The crossover of these EMAs serves as a crucial signal for potential trend changes. When the faster EMA crosses above the slower EMA, a "Buy" signal is generated, and when the faster EMA crosses below the slower EMA, a "Sell" signal is generated.
4. Trend Regularity Adaptive Moving Average (TRAMA): The script calculates and plots the TRAMA, a unique adaptive moving average that helps identify trends and adapt to market conditions. The indicator includes the Trend Regularity Adaptive Moving Average (TRAMA), an adaptive moving average designed to identify trends and adapt to varying market conditions. TRAMA helps traders gauge the strength of a trend and provides valuable insights into potential trend reversals.
5. Signals: The script generates "Buy - Green" and "Sell- Red" signals based on the crossover of the two EMAs and Pivot Point Trend Levels. That Also Customizable.
How to Use:
The SRTL indicator is a powerful tool for technical analysis, offering multiple layers of information for traders. When the price approaches dynamic support or resistance levels, The dynamic support and resistance levels are based on pivot points and adjust to the market's current conditions. The trend lines help visualize potential trends and can be adjusted to show different numbers of pivot points. Additionally, the Double EMA and TRAMA lines provide further insight into the market's momentum and potential reversals. Traders can assess the potential for trend reversals or breakouts. The trend lines help visualize the market's prevailing direction, and the crossover of the Double EMA signals potential entry and exit points.
Traders should use this study as part of a broader trading strategy and combine it with other technical indicators, fundamental analysis, and risk management techniques. Additionally, it's essential to test the indicator thoroughly in a demo or back testing environment before applying it to live trading to ensure its compatibility with individual trading styles and preferences.
Price Deviation Indicator (PDI)Management
The Price Deviation Indicator (PDI) was developed by "DimArt". This indicator allows you to determine the percentage deviation of the price from its average value over a certain period of time. The larger the deviation, the higher the histogram on the indicator chart. The PDI indicator can be useful for identifying a trend reversal in combination with other technical indicators, such as RSI, MACD, and others. For example, if the RSI and MACD indicators show the beginning of a possible trend reversal, using the PDI indicator can confirm this signal by showing the deviation of the current price from the average price. This can help the trader make more accurate trading decisions based on a strong signal.
Description
To calculate the values of the "Price Deviation Indicator" (PDI), we use the following steps:
• Determine the "Period" variable, which specifies the number of bars used to calculate the average price. (Default value is 20)
• Calculate the average price over the specified period using the "sma()" (simple moving average) function.
• Calculate the percentage difference between the current price and the average price using the formula: ((close - avg_price) / avg_price) * 100 .
• Set levels to change the color of the histogram based on price deviation from the average value. "Histogram Color" is a parameter to customize the color of the histogram based on deviation levels. By default, if the deviation is more than 5%, the histogram will be red; if it is less than -5%, it will be green, and for all other deviations, it will be blue. However, this parameter can be changed to other values.
• Draw a histogram of price change relative to the average value. The "Style" parameter allows you to choose the style of the indicator (histogram). By default, the "Histogram" style is set, but you can also select "Line on Close" or "Line on Open".
Application of the Indicator
The PDI indicator is based on the assumption that the price of any asset always tends to its mean value. Using PDI on higher timeframes allows you to determine the overall market trend, whereas on smaller timeframes, situations can be found when the price is in negative territory, and the histogram starts to smoothly transition from negative to positive value. This can be a signal to buy, as the price is likely in an oversold condition and ready to change its trend. On the other hand, if the strength of the price slows down or begins to approach 0, this may indicate that the asset is overbought and starting to turn towards oversold, which is a signal to sell. A beautiful feature of the PDI indicator is its simplicity and conciseness, which allows you to quickly and easily identify a trend change and make trading decisions based on a strong signal.
Conclusion
The "Price Deviation Indicator" (PDI) can be useful in analyzing price movements in the market. It allows you to calculate the relative difference between the current price and the average price, allowing you to identify market saturation and change in trend. The indicator can be used in technical analysis to make decisions about buying or selling assets on the exchange. It can also be useful for traders of different levels of experience, as its settings can be adapted depending on the user's needs and requirements. Overall, this indicator is one of the tools that can help in analyzing price and volumes to determine possible investment prospects in assets.
Zigzag Trend-based Color [SteinG]Zigzag Indicator with Trend-based Color Coding and Info Table
This indicator is forked from Trendoscope's Recursive Zigzag
The Zigzag Indicator with Trend-based Color Coding and Info Table is a powerful tool for technical analysis, designed to help you identify significant price swings, visualize trends, and analyze pivot points with ease. This advanced indicator offers enhanced functionalities and improved visual representation.
The primary purpose of the Zigzag Indicator is to identify and highlight important price reversals, commonly referred to as pivot points, in a given chart. These pivot points are essential in recognizing trend changes and potential market turning points. With the Zigzag Indicator, you can quickly identify these pivotal moments and gain valuable insights into market dynamics.
One of the standout features of this indicator is the color coding applied to the Zigzag line, which intuitively reflects the trend associated with each pivot point. The color scheme is as follows:
- Green : Indicates an upward trend, representing a bullish movement in the price.
- Lime : Represents a retracement during an upward trend, indicating a temporary pullback before the uptrend resumes.
- Red : Signifies a downward trend, indicating a bearish movement in the price.
- Orange : Represents a retracement during a downward trend, indicating a temporary bounce before the downtrend resumes.
This color coding allows you to easily visualize the prevailing market sentiment and make more informed trading decisions accordingly.
In addition to the visual representation, the Zigzag Indicator also includes an informative table that provides essential details about each pivot point. The table presents the following information for each pivot point:
1. Pivot Value : The price level at which the pivot point occurs.
2. Direction : Indicates whether the pivot point represents an upward or downward trend.
3. Fibo Ratios : Displays the Fibonacci retracement levels between two consecutive pivot points, offering insights into potential support and resistance levels.
The inclusion of this comprehensive info table enables you to analyze pivot points more effectively, understand the underlying price dynamics, and identify key trading opportunities.
MACD Fake Filter [RH]Introducing a new indicator for the TradingView community based on the MACD indicator! This innovative tool goes beyond traditional MACD signals by analyzing positive and negative waves to determine the average height of the waves to filter false cross-over or cross-under signals during the sideways market.
There are two types of waves created by the MACD line, one is a positive wave above the "zero" line and another is a negative wave below "zero" line. Each wave has peaks. This indicator will find the average height of the positive waves' peaks and plot as a green line(by default). Vice-versa it will also find the average height of the negative waves' peaks and plot as a red line(by default).
Example :
This indicator will show labels when the MACD line crosses-under the MACD signal line above the average height of the positive waves.
Vice-versa, the indicator will show labels when the MACD line crosses-above the MACD signal line below the average height of the negative waves.
Example:
Alerts are also available for these types of cross-over and cross-under.
Enhanced WaveTrend OscillatorThe Enhanced WaveTrend Oscillator is a modified version of the original WaveTrend. The WaveTrend indicator is a popular technical analysis tool used to identify overbought and oversold conditions in the market and generate trading signals. The enhanced version addresses certain limitations of the original indicator and introduces additional features for improved analysis and comparison across assets.
WaveTrend:
The original WaveTrend indicator calculates two lines based on exponential moving averages and their relationship to the asset's price. The first line measures the distance between the asset's price and its EMA, while the second line smooths the first line over a specific period. The result is divided by 0.015 multiplied by the smoothed difference ('d' for reference). The indicator aims to identify overbought and oversold conditions by analyzing the relationship between the two lines.
In the original formula, the rudimentary estimation factor 0.015 times 'd' fails to accomodate for approximately a quarter of the data, preventing the indicator from reaching the traditional stationary levels of +-100. This limitation renders the indicator quantitatively biased, as it relies on the user's subjective adjustment of the levels. The enhanced version replaces this factor with the standard deviation of the asset's price, resulting in improved estimation accuracy and provides a more dynamic and robust outcome, we thereafter multiply the result by 100 to achieve a more traditional oscillation.
Enhancements and Features:
The enhanced version of the WaveTrend indicator addresses several limitations of the original indicator and introduces additional features-
Dynamic Estimation: The original indicator uses an arbitrary estimation factor, while the enhanced version replaces it with the standard deviation of the asset's price. This modification provides a more dynamic and accurate estimation, adapting to the specific price characteristics of each asset.
Stationary Support and Resistance Levels: The enhanced version provides stationary key support and resistance levels that range from -150 to 150. These levels are determined based on the analysis of the indicator's data and encompass more than 95% of the indicator's values. These levels offer important reference points for traders to identify potential price reversals or significant price movements.
Comparison Across Assets: The enhanced version allows for better comparison and analysis across different assets. By incorporating the standard deviation of the asset's price, the indicator provides a more consistent and comparable interpretation of the market conditions across multiple assets.
Upon closer inspection of the modification in the enhanced version, we can observe that the resulting indicator is a smoothed variation of the Z-Score!
f_ewave(src, chlen, avglen) =>
basis = ta.ema(src, chlen)
dev = ta.stdev(src, chlen)
wave = (src - basis) / dev * 100
ta.ema(wave, avglen)
Z-Score Analysis:
The Z-Score is a statistical measurement that quantifies how far a particular data point deviates from the mean in terms of standard deviations. In the enhanced version, the calculation involves determining the basis (mean) and deviation (standard deviation) of the asset's price to calculate its Z-Score, thereafter applying a smoothing technique to generate the final WaveTrend value.

Monday_Weekly_Range/ErkOzi/Deviation Level/V1"Hello, first of all, I believe that the most important levels to look at are the weekly Fibonacci levels. I have planned an indicator that automatically calculates this. It models a range based on the weekly opening, high, and low prices, which is well-detailed and clear in my scans. I hope it will be beneficial for everyone.
***The logic of the Monday_Weekly_Range indicator is to analyze the weekly price movement based on the trading range formed on Mondays. Here are the detailed logic, calculation, strategy, and components of the indicator:
***Calculation of Monday Range:
The indicator calculates the highest (mondayHigh) and lowest (mondayLow) price levels formed on Mondays.
If the current bar corresponds to Monday, the values of the Monday range are updated. Otherwise, the values are assigned as "na" (undefined).
***Calculation of Monday Range Midpoint:
The midpoint of the Monday range (mondayMidRange) is calculated using the highest and lowest price levels of the Monday range.
***Fibonacci Levels:
// Calculate Fibonacci levels
fib272 = nextMondayHigh + 0.272 * (nextMondayHigh - nextMondayLow)
fib414 = nextMondayHigh + 0.414 * (nextMondayHigh - nextMondayLow)
fib500 = nextMondayHigh + 0.5 * (nextMondayHigh - nextMondayLow)
fib618 = nextMondayHigh + 0.618 * (nextMondayHigh - nextMondayLow)
fibNegative272 = nextMondayLow - 0.272 * (nextMondayHigh - nextMondayLow)
fibNegative414 = nextMondayLow - 0.414 * (nextMondayHigh - nextMondayLow)
fibNegative500 = nextMondayLow - 0.5 * (nextMondayHigh - nextMondayLow)
fibNegative618 = nextMondayLow - 0.618 * (nextMondayHigh - nextMondayLow)
fibNegative1 = nextMondayLow - 1 * (nextMondayHigh - nextMondayLow)
fib2 = nextMondayHigh + 1 * (nextMondayHigh - nextMondayLow)
***Fibonacci levels are calculated using the highest and lowest price levels of the Monday range.
Common Fibonacci ratios such as 0.272, 0.414, 0.50, and 0.618 represent deviation levels of the Monday range.
Additionally, the levels are completed with -1 and +1 to determine at which level the price is within the weekly swing.
***Visualization on the Chart:
The Monday range, midpoint, Fibonacci levels, and other components are displayed on the chart using appropriate shapes and colors.
The indicator provides a visual representation of the Monday range and Fibonacci levels using lines, circles, and other graphical elements.
***Strategy and Usage:
The Monday range represents the starting point of the weekly price movement. This range plays an important role in determining weekly support and resistance levels.
Fibonacci levels are used to identify potential reaction zones and trend reversals. These levels indicate where the price may encounter support or resistance.
You can use the indicator in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and indicators to conduct a more comprehensive analysis. For example, combining it with trendlines, moving averages, or oscillators can enhance the accuracy.
When making investment decisions, it is important to combine the information provided by the indicator with other analysis methods and use risk management strategies.
Thank you in advance for your likes, follows, and comments. If you have any questions, feel free to ask."
Absolute ZigZag LibLibrary "Absolute_ZigZag_Lib"
This ZigZag Library is a Bit different. Instead of using percentages or looking more than 1 bar left or right, this Zigzag library calculates pivots by just looking at the current bar highs and lows and the ones of one bar earlier.
This is the most accurate way of calculating pivots and it also eliminates lag.
The library also features a solution for bars that have both a higher high and a higher low like seen below.
You can also use your own colors for the labels and the lines.
You can also quickly select a one-colored theme without changing all colors at once

Interactive Motive Wave ChecklistHere is an interactive tool that can be used for learning a bit about Elliott Waves
🎲 How it works?
The script upon load asks users to enter 6 pivots in an order. Once all 6 pivots are selected on the interactive chart, the script will calculate if the structure is a valid motive wave.
When you load the script, you will see a prompt on the chart to select points on the chart to form 6 pivots.
When you select the 6 pivots, the checklists are populated on the chart to notify users which conditions for qualifying the selection has passed and which of them are failed.
🎲 Conditions for Motive Wave
Motive wave can be either Impulse or Diagonal Wave. Diagonal wave can be either expanding or contracting diagonals. To learn more about diagonal waves, please go through this idea.
Rules for generic motive waves are as below
Pivots in order - Checks wether the pivots selected are in progressive order.
Directions in order - Checks if the pivot directions are correct - either PH, PL, PH, PL, PH, PL or PL, PH, PL, PH, PL, PH
Wave 2 never moves beyond the start of wave 1 - Wave 2 retracement is less than 100% of wave1
Wave 3 always moves beyond the end of wave 1 - Wave 3 retracement is more than 100% of wave2
Wave 3 is never the shortest one - Checks if Wave 3 is bigger than either Wave 1 or wave 5 or both.
Now, these are the specific rules for Impulse Waves on top of Motive Wave conditions
Wave 4 never moves beyond the end of Wave 1 - meaning wave 1 and wave 4 never overlap on price scale.
Wave 1, 3, 5 are all not extended. We check for retracement ratios of more than 200% to be considered as extended wave.
Below are the conditions for Diagonal Waves on top of Motive Wave conditions
Wave4 never moves beyond the start of Wave 3 - Wave 4 retracement is less than 100%
Wave 4 always ends within the price territory of Wave 1 - Unlike impulse wave, wave 4 intersects with wave 1 in case of diagonal waves. This is the major difference between impulse and diagonal wave.
Waves are progressively expanding or contracting - Wave1 > Wave3 > Wave5 and Wave2 > Wave4 to be contracting diagonal. Wave1 < Wave3 < Wave5 and Wave2 < Wave4 to be expanding diagonal wave.
Here is an example of diagonal wave projection
Here is an example of impulse wave projection
Discrete Fourier Transform Overlay [wbburgin]The discrete Fourier transform (DFT) overlay uses a discrete Fourier transform algorithm to identify trend direction. This is a simpler interpretation that only uses the magnitude of the first frequency component obtained from the DFT algorithm, but can be useful for visualization purposes. I haven't seen many Fourier scripts on TradingView that actually have the magnitude plotted on the chart (some have lines, for instance, but that makes it difficult to look into the past or to see previous lines).
About the Discrete Fourier Transform
The DFT is a mathematical transformation that decomposes a time-domain signal into its constituent frequency components. By applying the DFT to OHLC data, we can interpret the periodicities and trends present in the market. I've designed the overlay so that you can choose your source for the Fourier transform, as well as the length.
Settings and Configuration
The "Fourier Period" is the transform length of the DFT algorithm. This input indicates the number of data points considered for the DFT calculation. For example, if this input is set to 20, the DFT will be performed on the most recent 20 data points of the input series. The transform length affects the resolution and accuracy of the frequency analysis. A shorter transform length may provide a broader frequency range but with less detail, while a longer transform length can provide finer frequency resolution but may be computationally more intensive (I recommend using under 100 - anything above that might take too much time to load on the platform).
The "Fourier X Series" is the source you want the Fourier transform to be applied to. I have it set in default to the close.
"Kernel Smoothing" is the bar-start of the rational quadratic kernel used to smooth the frequency component. Think of it just like a normal moving average if you are unfamiliar with the concept, it functions similarly to the "length" value of a moving average.

Title : "The Dual-Dynamic Fibonacci Retracement Script: An Advanced Tool for Comprehensive Market Analysis"
As the author of the "Dual-Dynamic Fibonacci Retracement Script", I am delighted to introduce you to this cutting-edge tool for technical analysis. Unlike conventional Fibonacci scripts, this advanced model incorporates multiple unique features and adjustments that make it a powerful asset for any market analyst. Whether you're dealing with forex, commodities, equities or any other market, this script is versatile enough to enhance your trading strategy.
Uniqueness & Differentiation:
The "Dual-Dynamic Fibonacci Script" stands out by offering two distinct lookback periods. This feature is what separates it from other scripts available in the market. The first lookback period is longer, focusing on capturing broader market trends. The second lookback period is shorter, allowing for a more granular analysis of near-term market fluctuations. This dual perspective provides a more comprehensive view of the market, allowing you to see both the forest and the trees at the same time.
Fibonacci Levels:
While offering the standard Fibonacci retracement levels (0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.786, and 1.0), the script also gives you the ability to plot 0.114 and 0.886 levels. These additional levels offer an extra layer of depth to your analysis, and can prove crucial in high-volatility markets where they often serve as significant support and resistance points.
Customizable Line Shifts and Extends:
This script provides options for customization of the shift and extension of the plotted lines. This means you can adjust the start and end points of the Fibonacci lines according to your personal trading style and strategy. This level of personalization is not typically available in other scripts, and it allows for a more tailored visual representation.
Flexible Trading Positioning:
Depending on whether the closing price is above or below the midpoint of the pivot high and pivot low, the Fibonacci retracement levels are adjusted accordingly. This ensures the script remains relevant and useful regardless of market conditions.
Clean Visualization:
To prevent clutter and maintain focus on the most relevant price action, the script removes old Fibonacci lines and plots new ones once a new pivot high or low is identified. This clean visualization helps keep your analysis focused and sharp.
How to Use the Script:
To get started, simply adjust the lookback periods according to your trading strategy. If you're a long-term investor or prefer swing trading, a longer lookback period might be appropriate. Conversely, if you're a day trader, a shorter lookback period might be more beneficial.
The "Shift" and "Extend" inputs allow you to control the positioning of the Fibonacci lines on your chart. Positive values shift the lines to the right, while negative values shift them to the left.
You also have the choice to plot the additional Fibonacci levels (0.114 and 0.886) via the "Plot 0.114 and 0.886 levels?" input. Similarly, the "Plot second set of levels?" input lets you decide whether to display the second set of Fibonacci levels derived from the shorter lookback period.
Like any technical analysis tool, this script is most effective when used in conjunction with other indicators and methods of analysis. It is designed to work well in trending markets, where Fibonacci retracements can often indicate potential reversal levels. However, it's always recommended to use a holistic approach to market analysis to maximize the likelihood of successful trades.
Note: the two lines drawn on the chart are there to help the user identify the levels from which the two respective Fib sequences are calculated.
~~~
Input Explanations:
Long Period Pivot High/Low Lookback and Short Period Pivot High/Low Lookback : These settings determine the length of the lookback periods for the long-term and short-term pivot points, respectively. A pivot point is a technical analysis indicator used to determine the overall trend of the market over different time frames. The pivot points are then used to calculate the Fibonacci levels. A longer lookback period will identify pivot points over a broader time frame, capturing major market trends, while a shorter lookback period will identify pivot points over a narrower time frame, capturing more immediate market movements.
Long Period Fibonacci Level Shift and Short Period Fibonacci Level Shift : These inputs control the shift of the Fibonacci levels based on the long and short lookback periods, respectively. If you want to shift the Fibonacci levels to the right, increase the value. If you want to shift the Fibonacci levels to the left, decrease the value. This allows you to adjust the Fibonacci levels to better align with your analysis.
Long Period Fibonacci Level Extend and Short Period Fibonacci Level Extend : These inputs control the extension of the Fibonacci levels based on the long and short lookback periods, respectively. If you want the Fibonacci levels to extend further to the right, increase the value. If you want the Fibonacci levels to extend less to the right, decrease the value. This feature provides the flexibility to adjust the length of the Fibonacci levels according to your personal trading preferences and strategy.
Plot 0.114 and 0.886 levels? : This setting gives you the ability to plot the additional 0.114 and 0.886 Fibonacci levels. These levels provide extra depth to your analysis, particularly in highly volatile markets where they can act as significant support and resistance levels.
Plot second set of levels? : This input allows you to decide whether to plot the second set of Fibonacci levels based on the short lookback period. Displaying this second set of levels can provide a more granular view of market movements and potential reversal points, enhancing your overall analysis.
SuperBollingerTrend (Expo)█ Overview
The SuperBollingerTrend indicator is a combination of two popular technical analysis tools, Bollinger Bands, and SuperTrend. By fusing these two indicators, SuperBollingerTrend aims to provide traders with a more comprehensive view of the market, accounting for both volatility and trend direction. By combining trend identification with volatility analysis, the SuperBollingerTrend indicator provides traders with valuable insights into potential trend changes. It recognizes that high volatility levels often accompany stronger price momentum, which can result in the formation of new trends or the continuation of existing ones.
█ How Volatility Impacts Trends
Volatility can impact trends by expanding or contracting them, triggering trend reversals, leading to breakouts, and influencing risk management decisions. Traders need to analyze and monitor volatility levels in conjunction with trend analysis to gain a comprehensive understanding of market dynamics.
█ How to use
Trend Reversals: High volatility can result in more dramatic price fluctuations, which may lead to sharp trend reversals. For example, a sudden increase in volatility can cause a bullish trend to transition into a bearish one, or vice versa, as traders react to significant price swings.
Volatility Breakouts: Volatility can trigger breakouts in trends. Breakouts occur when the price breaks through a significant support or resistance level, indicating a potential shift in the trend. Higher volatility levels can increase the likelihood of breakouts, as they indicate stronger market momentum and increased buying or selling pressure. This indicator triggers when the volatility increases, and if the price is near a key level when the indicator alerts, it might trigger a great trend.
█ Features
Peak Signal Move
The indicator calculates the peak price move for each ZigZag and displays it under each signal. This highlights how much the market moved between the signals.
Average ZigZag Move
All price moves between two signals are stored, and the average or the median is calculated and displayed in a table. This gives traders a great idea of how much the market moves on average between two signals.
Take Profit
The Take Profit line is placed at the average or the median price move and gives traders a great idea of what they can expect in average profit from the latest signals.

Triple Top Patterns [theEccentricTrader]█ OVERVIEW
This indicator automatically draws triple top patterns and price projections derived from the ranges that constitute the patterns.
█ CONCEPTS
Green and Red Candles
• A green candle is one that closes with a close price equal to or above the price it opened.
• A red candle is one that closes with a close price that is lower than the price it opened.
Swing Highs and Swing Lows
• A swing high is a green candle or series of consecutive green candles followed by a single red candle to complete the swing and form the peak.
• A swing low is a red candle or series of consecutive red candles followed by a single green candle to complete the swing and form the trough.
Peak and Trough Prices (Basic)
• The peak price of a complete swing high is the high price of either the red candle that completes the swing high or the high price of the preceding green candle, depending on which is higher.
• The trough price of a complete swing low is the low price of either the green candle that completes the swing low or the low price of the preceding red candle, depending on which is lower.
Historic Peaks and Troughs
The current, or most recent, peak and trough occurrences are referred to as occurrence zero. Previous peak and trough occurrences are referred to as historic and ordered numerically from right to left, with the most recent historic peak and trough occurrences being occurrence one.
Broken and Unbroken Peaks and Troughs
Upon the completion of a new swing low the high of the green candle that completes the swing low will be above, below or equal to the current peak price. And similarly, upon the completion of a new swing high the low of the red candle that completes the swing high will be above, below or equal to the current trough price.
If the high price of the green candle that completes the current swing low is higher than or equal to the current peak price then the current peak is broken. If the high of the green candle that completes the current swing low is below the current peak price, then the current peak is unbroken.
Similarly, if the low price of the red candle that completes the current swing high is lower than or equal to the current trough price then the current trough is broken. If the low price of the red candle that completes the current swing high is above the current trough price, then the current trough is unbroken.
Range
The range is simply the difference between the current peak and current trough prices, generally expressed in terms of points or pips.
Retracement and Extension Ratios
Retracement and extension ratios are calculated by dividing the current range by the preceding range and multiplying the answer by 100. Retracement ratios are those that are equal to or below 100% of the preceding range and extension ratios are those that are above 100% of the preceding range.
Triple Bottom and Triple Top Patterns
• Triple bottom patterns are composed of two peaks and three troughs, with the second and third troughs being roughly equal to the first trough.
• Triple top patterns are composed of two troughs and three peaks, with the second and third peaks being roughly equal to the first peak.
Measurement Tolerances
In general, tolerance in measurements refers to the allowable variation or deviation from a specific value or dimension. It is the range within which a particular measurement is considered to be acceptable or accurate. In this script I have applied this concept to the measurement of triple bottom and triple top patterns to increase to the frequency of pattern occurrences.
For example, a perfect triple bottom is very rare. We can increase the frequency of pattern occurrences by setting a tolerance. A ratio tolerance of 10% to both downside and upside, which is the default setting, means we would have a tolerable ratio measurement range between 90-110% for the second and third troughs as ratios of the first trough, thus increasing the frequency of occurrence.

█ LIMITATIONS
All green and red candle calculations are based on differences between open and close prices, as such I have made no attempt to account for green candles that gap lower and close below the close price of the preceding candle, or red candles that gap higher and close above the close price of the preceding candle. This may cause some unexpected behaviour on some markets and timeframes. I can only recommend using 24-hour markets, if and where possible, as there are far fewer gaps and, generally, more data to work with.

Retracement and extension ratios are calculated by dividing the current range by the preceding range and multiplying the answer by 100. Retracement ratios are those that are equal to or below 100% of the preceding range and extension ratios are those that are above 100% of the preceding range.
Bullish and Bearish Alternate Flag Patterns
• Bullish alternate flags are composed of one peak and two troughs. The second trough being higher than the first.
• Bearish alternate flags are composed of one trough and two peaks. The second peak being lower than the first.
In this script I have used minimum and maximum retracement and extension ratios to set parameters for pattern identification:
• Wave 1 of the pattern, referred to as AB, is set to a minimum ratio of 100%.
• Wave 2 of the pattern, referred to as BC, is set to a maximum ratio of 30%.

█ LIMITATIONS
All green and red candle calculations are based on differences between open and close prices, as such I have made no attempt to account for green candles that gap lower and close below the close price of the preceding candle, or red candles that gap higher and close above the close price of the preceding candle. This may cause some unexpected behaviour on some markets and timeframes. I can only recommend using 24-hour markets, if and where possible, as there are far fewer gaps and, generally, more data to work with.
Bearish Pennant Patterns [theEccentricTrader]█ OVERVIEW
This indicator automatically draws bearish pennant patterns and price projections derived from the ranges that constitute the patterns.
█ CONCEPTS
Green and Red Candles
• A green candle is one that closes with a close price equal to or above the price it opened.
• A red candle is one that closes with a close price that is lower than the price it opened.
Swing Highs and Swing Lows
• A swing high is a green candle or series of consecutive green candles followed by a single red candle to complete the swing and form the peak.
• A swing low is a red candle or series of consecutive red candles followed by a single green candle to complete the swing and form the trough.
Peak and Trough Prices (Basic)
• The peak price of a complete swing high is the high price of either the red candle that completes the swing high or the high price of the preceding green candle, depending on which is higher.
• The trough price of a complete swing low is the low price of either the green candle that completes the swing low or the low price of the preceding red candle, depending on which is lower.
Historic Peaks and Troughs
The current, or most recent, peak and trough occurrences are referred to as occurrence zero. Previous peak and trough occurrences are referred to as historic and ordered numerically from right to left, with the most recent historic peak and trough occurrences being occurrence one.
Broken and Unbroken Peaks and Troughs
Upon the completion of a new swing low the high of the green candle that completes the swing low will be above, below or equal to the current peak price. And similarly, upon the completion of a new swing high the low of the red candle that completes the swing high will be above, below or equal to the current trough price.
If the high price of the green candle that completes the current swing low is higher than or equal to the current peak price then the current peak is broken. If the high of the green candle that completes the current swing low is below the current peak price, then the current peak is unbroken.
Similarly, if the low price of the red candle that completes the current swing high is lower than or equal to the current trough price then the current trough is broken. If the low price of the red candle that completes the current swing high is above the current trough price, then the current trough is unbroken.
Range
The range is simply the difference between the current peak and current trough prices, generally expressed in terms of points or pips.
Upper Trends
• A return line uptrend is formed when the current peak price is higher than the preceding peak price.
• A downtrend is formed when the current peak price is lower than the preceding peak price.
• A double-top is formed when the current peak price is equal to the preceding peak price.
Lower Trends
• An uptrend is formed when the current trough price is higher than the preceding trough price.
• A return line downtrend is formed when the current trough price is lower than the preceding trough price.
• A double-bottom is formed when the current trough price is equal to the preceding trough price.
Wave Cycles
A wave cycle is here defined as a complete two-part move between a swing high and a swing low, or a swing low and a swing high. The first swing high or swing low will set the course for the sequence of wave cycles that follow; for example a chart that begins with a swing low will form its first complete wave cycle upon the formation of the first complete swing high and vice versa.

Retracement and Extension Ratios
Retracement and extension ratios are calculated by dividing the current range by the preceding range and multiplying the answer by 100. Retracement ratios are those that are equal to or below 100% of the preceding range and extension ratios are those that are above 100% of the preceding range.
Bullish and Bearish Pennant Patterns
• Bullish pennants are generally composed of three troughs and two peaks. The first peak being higher than the second peak and the first trough being lower than both the second and third troughs, with the third trough being higher than the second trough.
• Bearish pennants are generally composed of three peaks and two troughs. The first trough being lower than the second trough and the first peak being higher than both the second and third peaks, with third peak being lower than the second peak.
In this script I have used minimum and maximum retracement and extension ratios to set parameters for pattern identification:
• Wave 1 of the pattern, referred to as AB, is set to a minimum ratio of 100%.
• Wave 2 of the pattern, referred to as BC, is set to a maximum ratio of 30%.
• Wave 3 of the pattern, referred to as CD, has no ratio measurements but will always be below 100% by default.
• Wave 4 of the pattern, referred to as DE, has no ratio measurements but will always be below 100% by default.
