Fractal Breakout Strategy [KL]Fractal Breakout Strategy
This strategy will enter into a Long position when (a) bullish fractal is formed, combined with (b) ATR is relatively low. Trailing stop loss is set based on ATR.
Bullish fractal pattern :
A bullish fractal pattern looks like this:
It is formed when lower-low has reached a local minimum followed by higher-lows.
By default, this script plots the pivot point (the local minimum) using green crosses. This line will extend to the right until the next bullish fractal is formed. The local minimum pivot point is considered as key level of support. For long position entry, entry price must be higher or equal to it.
On the other hand, a bearish fractal pattern looks like the exact opposite. Reversing the logic, it is a local maximum indicated by higher-highs followed by lower-highs. This is shown by red crosses.
Why use ATR to confirm entry :
Two reasons to enter when ATR is low:
1) Since trailing stop loss is based on ATR, entering the market when ATR is low means risking less for potentially high reward.
2) Low ATR often signals price consolidation. There are two favorable scenarios, either: (i) period of accumulation, or (ii) bull flag, ideally followed by breakout.
Determining whether ATR is low :
Relative lows are quantified out by using the method in my other script: Modified ATR Indicator
The method involves applying two-tailed hypothesis testing to assess whether ATR (ie. by default lookback period of 5) has greatly deviated from a larger sample size (ie. lookback period of 50). Assuming ATR is normally distributed and variance is known, then test statistic (z) can be used to determine whether ATR5 is within the critical area under Null Hypothesis: ATR5 == ATR50. If z falls below/above the left/right critical values (ie. 1.645 for a 90% confidence interval), then ATR is determined to the relatively low/high respectively. For the purpose of assessing whether ATR is low, the left-tail is the main focus.
Profit taking :
Profits by default are taken over 3 levels based on risk to reward ratio (ie. 1R, 2R, 3R). When a target is met at each level, strategy will close out one third of current position size. Remainders (ie. already taken once at 1R, but not yet reaching 2R or 3R) will eventually be closed at the trailing stop loss price.

EneX SignalEneX is signal that give recommendation signals for entry and exit on spot market. This indicators not suitable for leverage trading in futures market.
EneX signal consider several indicators and has entry and exit rules.
EneX signal is suitable for investors who believe in trend following strategy (disclaimer on).
This script composed by Yohan Naftali for educational purpose only. Reader who will use this signal must do own research.
Indicator and Plot Involved
1. Williams Fractals with default periods = 2
2. William Alligator Indicators with default simple moving average 8, 13, and 21
3. Exponential Moving Averages with default value EMA 50, 100, and 200
4. Relative Strength Index with default overbought level = 80 and oversold level = 20
5. Williams Fractals are joined to create support and resistance line and fill area between support and resistance lines.
Entry signal conditions
1. Entry on Weakness when bullish fractal appear on n/2 period
2. Entry when price break resistance line
All entry condition must above EMA and alligator signal and not in overbought RSI
Exit signal conditions
1. Lowest price is below Exponential Moving Average
2. Lowest price is below William alligator lines
You can easily find entry and exit points by using Entry (E), Exit(X) signals
How to use
1. Monitor chart and wait until E or X signals
2. Entry if Entry Signal (E) appear (green colored label)
3. Exit if Exit Signal (X) appear (red colored label)
4. Change indicators setting when necessary
Best Practice
1. Entry only when entry signal (E) appear
2. Never entry when price below William alligator signal
3. Exit when exit signal (X) appear
4. Not exit when exit signal appear when you believe or you have information that price will be rebound
5. Exit if you believe that current price meet your target price
6. Always wise when use EneX signals

Forex Fractal EMA ScalperThis is a forex scalper designed for very short timeframes 1-5 min max.
At the same time due to the short timeframe, is recommend to re optimize it weekly .
Its components are
Fractals
Triple EMA with different lengths
Rules for entry:
For long : we have an up fractal and all 3 ema are in ascending order
For short: we have a down fractal and all 3 ema are in descending order.
Rules for exit
We exit when we either get a reverse order or when we hit the take profit or stop loss calculated in fixed pips.
Williams Fractals BUY/SELL signals indicatorThis indicator made with using Williams Fractals, 20 50 100 Moving Averages and Relative Strength Index. You can easily find entry points by using Long (L), Short (S) signals.
This is a 15min scalping strategy for BTC:USDT Perpetual pair. For use different pairs or TFs you may need to change settings.
How to use
****************
When flashing Long (L) or Short (S) signal you should wait until the candle closing for the confirmation.
After that candle closed with the signal, you can enter a trade in next candle opening.
Your SL should be 3.1% from etnry and TP should be 0.5% from entry for best results. (You can use Long Position / Short Position tool in Prediction and Measurement Tools in drawing pannel to calculate this. This settings only for BTC:USDT Perp 15 min TF. For other TFs or Pairs settings may vary. You can easily change these settings and backtest your own.)
After entering a trade you can be ignored next signals until close the trade.

SL Hunter Tracker SL Hunter Tracker
coded by Bogdan Vaida
SL Hunter Tracker is a meticulous hunter that tracks SL hunters.
First it plots the fractals on the chart, then it draws lines from them
to the last wick that touched that height. You can add sweep alerts, once
per bar close, so that you get notified when a wick was touched.
Tested on: EURUSD 30'
OS FractalsAn up fractal is formed when a high is both preceded and followed by lower highs. A down fractal is formed when a low is both preceded and followed by higher lows.
Bill Williams uses a period of 2 (2 after and 2 before) to define a fractal. This indicator has 2 as default but lets you decide the range you want.
The indicator lets you also select alerts when price crosses an up of down fractal, which would usually mean to entry a position. This indicator works best when used with an alligator, as long signals are valid above the Balance Line and short signals are valid when triggered below the Balance Line.
Any comments for improvement are welcome.
Fractal lines multi time framePlot lines using last two William's fractals to find trends, it supports different resolutions and alerts
Fractals ROC AlertI am playing William's Fractals and got an idea to calculate each fractal's strength by these rules:
- downFractal. FractalROC = (close - lowest(n+1))/(open【2*n】-lowest(n+1))
- upFractal FractalROC = (highest(n+1)-close)/(highest(n+1)-open【2*n】)
And set up a level to filter small fractals.
Bigger FractalROC, Stronger trend
OS AlligatorOS Alligator includes Bill and Justine Williams´ indicators explained both in their "New Trading Dimensions" and "Trading Chaos: Second Edition" books. This script replicates the visual alerts shown on their graphs.
OS Alligator includes:
- Fractals (with labels for easy reading)
- Divergent Bars (signaled by top and bottom triangles)
- Zone bar colors (the bar is green when both AO and AC are green, red when both are red, and black when different)
- Zone buys and sells (subsequent AO of the same color), with letter Z
- Saucer buys and sells, with letter S
- Highest High and Lowest Low tracking (for traling stop setting)
- Balance line (Teeth) crossover alerts
and of course the Alligator's Mouth (Lips, Teeth, Jaw) with SMMA.
All these functions are customizable both in periods and in color. For example if you want to modify the Fractal or HiLo periods you can do so.
You can also add alerts based on any or all indicators.
Thank you for reading. Any comments for improvement are welcome.

2B detector betaIdentifying a trend reversal is practically tricky, given that price movement is somewhat unpredictable and mostly obeys a power law. In which the price difference is primarily out of normal distribution. According to Benoit Mandelbrot, the price distribution follows an alpha-stable distribution with α equal to 1.7.
Real data observation suggests that stock prices do not follow the Random Walk Hypothesis or Brownian motion. Instead, they follow a fractal pattern. Fractals exhibit similar patterns at different scales called self-similarity. Using this character, one can develop fractal patterns to identify local highs and local lows.
This indicator identifies the reversal signal so-called 2B base on the following logic:
1. Identify local highs and local lows with fractals
2. Define relative positions of those local highs and lows (ABC and 2B)
3. Define the local range of ABC and B

[SCL] Bitcoin Hashrate Dips (Miner Capitulation)Gives long-term buy signals for Bitcoin from dips and recoveries in the hashrate (the "miner capitulation" theory). It has an overlay and a standalone mode and is fully configurable. It uses Williams Lows and ATR instead of moving averages.
Features that might be interesting for Pinescripters:
+ Automatic (as far as is possible currently) adjustment of plots for overlay and standalone display modes.
+ A neat label function for debugging floats
+ Fully commented
+ The debug that I used to overcome problems in developing it is left in
+ Ideas for how to deal with a wildly oscillating and exponentially increasing data source
You need to run this indicator on the Bitcoin daily chart for it to make any sense. The best is a BTC/USD chart with a long history, such as BNC:BLX.

Williams Fractals with Alerts by MrTuanDoanCustom William Fractals for alerts and educational purpose.
Added custom alerts for Williams Fractals.
Also added filter to show less fractals on chart.
The simple idea how I use fractals in Binary Option is to determine temporary resistance and support.
Simple strategy:
- Mark Resistance/Support on higher time frame (e.g. 5M)
- Set an alert for new fractal
- Whenever a new fractal that appears close to your marked Resistance/Support, go to lower time frame (e.g. 1M)
- Wait for rejection at the level that lower than new down fractal (or higher than new up fractal).
- Enter with the same expiry of lower time frame.
Good luck and happy trading. :-)
Williams Fractals, A simpler scriptA simpler script to filter fractals and support large range parameter.
Deep_Fractal_Signals_and_Rubber_Band_TradesThis indicator is based on Williams Fractals and the TopDog Trading "Rubber Band Trade"
The Deep Fractal Signals are triangles that indicate the price is forming a pattern of decreasing lows in a down trend (orange) or, increasing highs in an up trend (green).
The triangles are placed above or below the last bar of the pattern, unlike Fractals which are drawn 2 candles prior to the current candle, and are re-painted on the chart.
When the triangle is indicated above the moving average in a down trend (blue), or below the moving average in an up trend (yellow), this is a Rubber Band Trade.
When the slope of the moving average is less than the Gain set by the user, or are counter-trend, the triangles are plotted in silver.
When used in conjunction with the Power Analyzer indicator, a signal to the long side should be taken when the Power Analyzer momentum indicator is at a cycle low. Similarly, a signal to the short side should be taken when the indicator is at a cycle high.
The first, second or third signal in a new trend have the highest probability of a follow through.
The indicator sometimes gives a false signal at the very end of the trend, just before the market reverses. This is an attempt by the Market Makers to persuade traders that the trend will continue.

This is the strategy version of my ABCD pattern. I added the Trailing Stop and Trailing Profit upon a follower request
I - Concept
I present to you, ladies and gentlemen, the first screener for harmonic patterns .
Starting with an ACBD pattern screener this time!!
I used the calculations from Ricardo Santo's script
In short, he's using fractals (regular or Bill Williams ) for the pattern calculations. A masterpiece !!!
II - Definitions
The ABCD pattern ( AB=CD ) is one of the classic chart patterns which is repeated over and over again.
The ABCD pattern shows perfect harmony between price and time.
The Williams Fractal is an indicator, developed by Bill Williams , that aims to detect reversal points (highs and lows) and marks them with arrows.
Up fractals and down fractals have specific shapes. The Williams Fractal indicator helps users determine in which direction price will develop
💎Strategy filters💎
I included some cool backtest filters:
- Trailing stop with trigger concept coming from this Trailing Stop Strategy
- Trailing profit with trigger coming from this Trailing Profit Strategy
Last words
It works for all asset classes (Forex, crypto, indices, etc...) and does not repaint
All the BEST

Williams Fractal Trailing StopsUnlike the built-in version, you can configure how many bars it takes to confirm a fractal. This indicator plots all Williams high and low fractals, and a stop line that trails the fractals up and down. Includes long and short stop alerts. You can choose whether the trail flips long-short based on the price being exceeded within a candle or on candle close. This indicator deals only with fractals and doesn't get into the Alligator or anything else.
I've commented it extensively, so that it might be useful for people learning Pinescript. Enjoy!

MultiTimeFrame Fractals D W M [xdecow]This indicator shows fractals in different timeframes. With the possibility of coloring the bars with any combination of current, daily, weekly and monthly timeframes.
The return points are calculated as follows:
high > last 3 highs and close above highest low
low < last 3 lows and closes below lowest high
The direction of higher timeframes fractals tend to be more durable and reliable. This indicator helps to find the fractal alignment of different timeframes, so that you can look for trade opportunities in the same direction as the higher timeframes and improve your chances.

III - How did I set the screener
The visual signals are as follow:
- square: whenever there is an ABCD pattern detected
Then the colors are:
- green when a bullish pattern is detected
- red when a bearish pattern is detected
🔸 The script screenshot shows two red squares matching two ABCD bearish pattern from the above panel. As the chart is showing APPL, I highlighted where the screener mentioned the fruit stock ( APPLE, pun, bad joke, Dave out...)
🔸 I tried to make it as clear as I could with red arrows
Once again, we pushed together the limits of pine script beyond of what we thought was possible, beyond the realm of this world, reaching finally the dreamt pine script heaven (am I going too far? feel free to tell me)
Best regards,
Dave
