Channels With Patterns [ChartPrime]The Channels With Patterns indicator is an attempt at minimizing the delay in forming a trend channel. This indicator uses a single pivot in conjunction with a smooth version of the price to estimate the direction of an emerging trend. Using ATR, this indicator estimates the volatility of the new trend by adjusting the channel size by a multiple of the current ATR.
One of the biggest complains for any trend indicator is that it takes too long to create a channel or trend line. This indicator estimates the trend channel by checking if the price is moving in the correct direction and then it projects the channel from a single pivot. To allow for some margin of error, this script uses an offset to help center the channel.
This offset is generated from the ATR at the time of formation. In conjunction with forming estimated trend channels, this indicator features select candle stick patterns. These candle stick patterns are filtered by location in the formed trend channel. If the price is within an extremity of the trend channel it will appear. Filtering classical vanilla candle stick patterns using this methodology can result in some interesting results and possible confluence points for traders. For example; a bearish hammer appearing when filtered in an upper zone might add an extra level of realtime unique confluence traders.
Traders can use this script as a general trend line indicator that is a bit more forward looking than others, or it can be used it as its full blown trend channel estimator. Due to the fact that this is an estimate using the minimum possible information to make the channel, its accuracy will not always be perfect and can suffer compared to alternative methods.
When configuring the indicator it is important to understand the role of each input. Here is a description of all of the settings provided:
Presets (`preset`): This input allows users to quickly configure the indicator based on the market they are trading in. Selecting "Stocks," "Forex," or "Crypto" automatically adjusts various parameters to settings deemed optimal for these markets. The "User" option lets traders manually configure settings for a more personalized approach.
Style (`style`): This setting determines how pivot points are calculated. "Wick" uses the high and low of candlesticks (including wicks), which can be more sensitive to market extremes. "Body" uses only the open and close prices (the body of the candlesticks), potentially offering a more stable pivot point calculation.
Break Style (`break_style`): This option defines what price is used to determine if a channel has been broken. "Close" uses the closing price of a candlestick, while "High/Low" uses the highest and lowest prices. This affects how channel breaks are identified and can influence trading signals.
Instant Mode (`instant`): When enabled, this feature allows the indicator to form channels more quickly by initiating them as soon as potential formations are detected. This can provide earlier signals but may increase the risk of false positives.
ATR Length (`atr_length`): This input sets the period for the Average True Range (ATR), a common volatility indicator. A longer ATR period may smooth out the channel but could delay responsiveness to market changes. A shorter period might make the channel more responsive but potentially more erratic.
Offset Center (`offset`): Adjusts the vertical positioning of the channel. This can help in aligning the channel more accurately with the price action, depending on market conditions and personal trading strategies.
Size (`atr_multiplier`): Alters the channel's size relative to the ATR. A higher multiplier makes a wider channel, which might be useful in more volatile markets. A lower multiplier tightens the channel, which could be better for less volatile conditions.
Padding % (`padding`): This setting adjusts the padding within the top and bottom quarters of the channel. It essentially fine-tunes the channel's sensitivity to price movements near its boundaries.
Pivot Length (`pivot_length`): Determines the number of bars used to calculate pivot points. A longer length may provide more significant pivot points but can reduce the number of channels formed.
Pivot Look Forward (`look_forward`): Sets the number of bars to look forward in the pivot calculation, affecting how quickly the channel adapts to new pivots.
Average H/L Length (`avg_length`): Controls the smoothing of the high and low prices used in the channel calculation. A longer average length can lead to smoother, more gradual channel slopes.
Enable Hammer (`enable_hammer`): When enabled, the indicator will highlight Hammer candlestick patterns, which are often considered bullish reversal indicators.
Enable Inverted Hammer (`enable_ihammer`): This toggles the display of Inverted Hammer patterns, typically viewed as potential bullish reversal signals.
Enable Bullish Engulfing (`enable_bullish_engulfing`): Enables the identification of Bullish Engulfing patterns, another type of bullish reversal indicator.
Enable Bearish Engulfing (`enable_bearish_engulfing`): When activated, this highlights Bearish Engulfing patterns, which are often interpreted as bearish reversal signals.
Extend Channel (`extend`): This option, when enabled, extends the drawn channels forward until they are either broken or a new channel is formed.
Show Break Label (`show_break_label`): Toggles the display of labels indicating where the channel has been broken, providing visual cues for potential trade entries or exits.
Channel History Length (`history_length`): Determines how many historical channels are displayed on the chart. This can be useful for analyzing past performance and patterns.
Channel Colors (`top_color`, `bottom_color`, `center_color`): These settings allow customization of the channel's appearance by setting the colors of the top, bottom, and center lines.
Line Transparency (`line_trans`): Adjusts the transparency of the channel lines, helping to balance visibility with chart readability.
Center Line Transparency (`center_trans`): Specifically sets the transparency level of the center line of the channel.
Channel Fill Transparency (`fill_trans`): Modifies the transparency of the filled areas between the channel lines, which can enhance chart clarity and focus on the price action.
Break Colors (`break_up_color`, `break_down_color`): Sets the colors for labels that appear when the channel is broken, either upwards or downwards.
Break Label Text Color (`text_color`): Determines the color of the text in the break labels, enhancing readability based on the chart's background and color scheme.
Candle Pattern Colors (`h_color`, `ih_color`, `bullish_engulfing_color`, `bearish_engulfing_color`): These inputs allow for the customization of the colors used to highlight various candle patterns on the chart.
Candle Pattern Text Color (`candle_text_color`): Sets the color of the text for labels associated with candle pattern indicators.
Alerts (`new_channel_alert`, `break_alert`, `hammer_alert`, `ihammer_alert`, `bullish_engulfing_alert`, `bearish_engulfing_alert`): These toggles enable or disable alerts for different events, such as the formation of new channels, channel breaks, or the appearance of specific candle patterns. This feature is crucial for traders who rely on timely notifications for potential trading opportunities.
We have provided a few presets to allow you to get a feeling for how the indicator works with different settings easily. Here is a description of the settings used in each preset:
Stocks Preset:
Style: "Wick"
Break Style: False (High/Low)
Instant Mode: True
ATR Length: 10
Size (ATR Multiplier): 4
Pivot Length: 10
Pivot Look Forward: 15
Average H/L Length: 18
Forex Preset:

Average H/L Length: 18
This script first starts by defining and collecting the relevant data for the main body of the code with data(). This generates the pivot data, the levels, the ranges, the averages, the deltas, and finally the candle sticks. Once there is a higher low, or lower high detected via the pivots and the current price it triggers the formation of the new channel. It takes the delta between the last pivot and the current average price and projects the trend channel using this delta. If the price exceeds the extremities of the channel it will classify this as a break from the estimated structure and begin looking for a new channel. The idea is that when trending, the price will oscillate between extremities as defined by a range and direction. If the price is inside of one of these extremities the script will look for candle stick patterns. This is how the script operates.
On a more technical level, this script is meant to showcase Pine Script's custom types and methods. We have made use of a properties pattern allows functions to use a minimal number of arguments. This allows you to add new inputs without modifying a string of functions. The use of methods and data structures allows the main body of the code to be easy to understand and for the script as a whole to be easily modified. We have made sure that the script is modular so that users can incorporate this into their own custom scripts. It should be easy to expand on this script as the main logic is fairly compact and open for easy modification. All features are packed into their own function for easy use elsewhere. This is particularly evident in the candle stick section. I have simplified the process of creating candle stick patterns by creating a type. All users have to do is make methods for this type.
candle()=>
polarity = open < close
body_top = math.max(open, close)
body_bottom = math.min(open, close)
body_range = body_top - body_bottom
top_wick = high - body_top
bottom_wick = body_bottom - low
average_body = ta.ema(body_range, 14)
average_top_wick = ta.ema(top_wick, 14)
average_bottom_wick = ta.ema(bottom_wick, 14)
has_body = body_range != 0
has_top_wick = top_wick != 0
has_bottom_wick = bottom_wick != 0
above_average_body = body_range > average_body

In conclusion, this script offers a blend of rapid trend channel formation and candlestick pattern recognition, making it a unique tool for traders looking for a more proactive approach to trend analysis.
TrendGuard Flag Finder - Strategy [presentTrading]
Introduction and How It Is Different
In the vast world of trading strategies, the TrendGuard Flag Finder stands out as a unique blend of traditional flag pattern detection and the renowned SuperTrend indicator.
- A significant portion of the Flag Pattern detection is inspired by the "Flag Finder" code by @Amphibiantrading, which serves as one of foundational element of this strategy.
- While many strategies focus on either trend-following or pattern recognition, this strategy harmoniously combines both, offering traders a more holistic view of the market.
- The integration of the SuperTrend indicator not only provides a clear direction of the prevailing trend but also offers potential stop-loss levels, enhancing the strategy's risk management capabilities.

ETHBTC 6hr chart
Strategy: How It Works
The TrendGuard Flag Finder is primarily built on two pillars:
1. Flag Pattern Detection : At its core, the strategy identifies flag patterns, which are continuation patterns suggesting that the prevailing trend will resume after a brief consolidation. The strategy meticulously detects both bullish and bearish flags, ensuring traders can capitalize on opportunities in both rising and falling markets.
What is a Flag Pattern? A flag pattern consists of two main components:
1.1 The Pole : This is the initial strong price move, which can be either upwards (for bullish flags) or downwards (for bearish flags). The pole represents a strong surge in price in a particular direction, driven by significant buying or selling momentum.
1.2 The Flag : Following the pole, the price starts consolidating, moving against the initial trend. This consolidation forms a rectangular shape and is characterized by parallel trendlines. In a bullish flag, the consolidation will have a slight downward tilt, while in a bearish flag, it will have a slight upward tilt.
How the Strategy Detects Flags:
Identifying the Pole: The strategy first identifies a strong price movement over a user-defined number of bars. This movement should meet a certain percentage change to qualify as a pole.
Spotting the Flag: After the pole is identified, the strategy looks for a consolidation phase. The consolidation should be counter to the prevailing trend and should be contained within parallel lines. The depth (for bullish flags) or rally (for bearish flags) of this consolidation is calculated to ensure it meets user-defined criteria.
2. SuperTrend Integration : The SuperTrend indicator, known for its simplicity and effectiveness, is integrated into the strategy. It provides a dynamic line on the chart, signaling the prevailing trend. When prices are above the SuperTrend line, it's an indication of an uptrend, and vice versa. This not only confirms the flag pattern's direction but also offers a potential stop-loss level for trades.
When combined, these components allow traders to identify potential breakout (for bullish flags) or breakdown (for bearish flags) scenarios, backed by the momentum indicated by the SuperTrend.
Usage
To use the SuperTrend Enhanced Flag Finder:
- Inputs : Begin by setting the desired parameters. The strategy offers a range of user-controlled settings, allowing for customization based on individual trading preferences and risk tolerance.
- Visualization : Once the parameters are set, the strategy will identify and visually represent flag patterns on the chart. Bullish flags are represented in green, while bearish flags are in red.
- Trade Execution : When a breakout or breakdown is identified, the strategy provides entry signals. It also offers exit signals based on the SuperTrend, ensuring that traders can capitalize on the momentum while managing risk.
Default Settings
The strategy comes with a set of default settings optimized for general use:
- SuperTrend Parameters: Length set to 10 and Factor set to 5.0.
- Bull Flag Criteria: Max Flag Depth at 7, Max Flag Length at 10 bars, Min Flag Length at 3 bars, Prior Uptrend Minimum at 9%, and Flag Pole Length between 7 to 13 bars.
- Bear Flag Criteria: Similar settings adjusted for bearish patterns.
- Display Options: By default, both bullish and bearish flags are displayed, with breakout and breakdown points highlighted.

Elliott Wave [LuxAlgo]The Elliott Wave indicator allows users to detect Elliott Wave (EW) impulses as well as corrective segments automatically on the chart. These are detected and displayed serially, allowing users to keep track of the evolution of an impulse or corrective wave.
Fibonacci retracements constructed from detected impulse waves are also included.
This script additionally allows users to get alerted on a wide variety of trigger conditions (see the ALERTS section below).
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Source
• "high" -> options high, close, maximum of open/close
• "low" -> options low, close, minimum of open/close
🔹 ZigZag
• The source and length are used to check whether a new Pivot Point is found.
Example:
• source = high/low, length = 10:
• There is a new pivot high when:
- previous high is higher than current high
- the highs of 10 bars prior to previous high are all lower
• These pivot points are used to form the ZigZag lines, which in their turn are used for pattern recognition
🔶 USAGE
The basic principles we use to identify Elliott Wave impulses are:
• A movement in the direction of the trend ( Motive/Impulse wave ) is divided in 5 waves (Wave 1 -> 5)
• The Corrective Wave (against the trend) is divided in 3 waves (Wave A -> C)
• The waves can be subdivided in smaller waves
• Wave 2 can’t retrace more than the beginning of Wave 1
• Wave 4 does not overlap with the price territory of Wave 1
Here we see an example:
Let's look at the development:
• 1 bar after point (5) a confirmed 5 Motive Wave pattern is found (1 -> 5; The 5 Waves can also be seen as one large Wave 1 ).
• Next, the script draws a set of Fibonacci lines, which are area's where the Corrective Wave potentially will bounce.
Here we see the fifth wave is getting larger, the previous highest point is updated, and the Wave 5 is larger than Wave 3 :
(At this point, the pattern is invalidated, and it display as dotted)
Further progression in time:
At this point, a confirmed " 3 Corrective Wave pattern " is found (a -> c)
When a new high has developed, a circle is drawn (in the same color of the lines)
However, when the bottom of the drawn box has breached, a red cross will be visualized.
Further progression:
Later on, a bearish confirmed " 5 Motive Wave pattern " is found (1 -> 5):
When a Corrective Wave becomes invalidated, the ABC pattern will display as dashed (not dotted):

🔶 ALERTS
Dynamic alerts are included in the script, you only need to set 1 alert to receive following messages:
• When a new EW Motive Pattern is found (Bullish/Bearish )
• When a new EW Corrective Pattern is found (Bullish/Bearish )
• When an EW Motive Pattern is invalidated (Bullish/Bearish )
• When an EW Corrective Pattern is invalidated (Bullish/Bearish )
• When possible, a start of a new EW Motive Wave is found (Bullish/Bearish )
• Here is information how you can set these alerts()
Recursive Zigzag [Trendoscope]Here is an another outcome of Object Oriented Zigzag and Pattern Ecosystem of Libraries.
We already have another implementation of recursive zigzag which makes use of earlier library rzigzag . Here in this example, we make use of similar logic but leverage the new type and method based Zigzag system libraries to derive the indicator.
🎲 Design Overview
Similar to Recursive Auto Pitchfork, here too the indicator code is around 50 lines. Whereas most of the heavy lifting is done by the libraries.
🎲 Base Libraries
Base libraries are those which does not have any dependency. They form basic structures which are later used in other libraries. These libraries need to be crafted carefully so that minimal updates are done later on. Any updates on these libraries will impact all the dependent libraries and scripts.
🎯 Drawing
DrawingTypes - Defines basic drawing types Point, Line, Label, Box, Linefill and related property types.
DrawingMethods - All the methods or functionality surrounding Basic types are defined here.
🎲 Layer 1 Libraries
These are the libraries which has direct dependency on base libraries.
🎯 Zigzag
ZigzagTypes - Types required for defining Zigzag and Divergence
ZigzagMethods - Methods associated with Zigzag Type definitions.
🎲Indicator
Indicator draws zigzags based on given length. And then recursively derives next level zigzags based on previous levels. As per the utility, indicator is useful in several ways
Visualising price structure based on zigzag pivots - which in turn can help visualise patterns.
Ability to add any oscillator makes it easy to spot divergences with choice of indicators.
Programmers can use the derived values to build complex algorithms such as automatic pattern recognition.
🎯 Settings
Settings are explained via tooltips. These are very much straight forward and directly related to zigzag, oscillators and divergence.

Volume confirmation
You can active volume increasing confirmation for some of pattern with adjustable increase % relative to prior candle | candles.
Oscillator Confirmation
Active oscillator confirmation. Select your approved oscillator from list (Stochastic, RSI, StochRSI, MFI, StochMFI) then enter desired value for marking candles as bullish | bearish pattern.
Bollinger Bands Confirmation
Active BB confirmation. Configure your Bollinger Bands. Now only see the patterns which reached or crossed from Bands. Also you can enable BB clod to have your BB indicator at the same time.
Adjustable Flexibility and Precision
You can set tolerance% for Osc and BB Confirmation - each one separately - for more control.

Self-regulatory
The user has the ability to change input factors depending on their point of view.
Behind the pattern recognition algorithms, there are relationships and similarities in their appearance that cause them to be influenced by each other. Simultaneously with changing the determining factors of each pattern by you, script automatically adjusts other details in accordance with your changes.
Alerts
You can set for type of pattern or each one of pattern have been detected.
Fully Costumizable
All of these options can be change and adjust.
Note 1.
The patterns are based on extensive study of reference and famous sources and the experience of me and my friends in trading and analysis with price action methods.
Note 2.
Due to the Pine limitations in the number of outputs | plots for each script, our attempt has been made to select the best and most important patterns.
Note 3.
So far, many scripts have been written in this field, but our experience with all of them and even the build in version was not satisfactory, and this was the initial motivation for making the script.
We strive to improve progress and elimination of shortcomings and we will continue to make this better.
Note 4.
Through personal experience and based on the principles of market and candlestick psychology, we discovered a new type of pattern and named it as Kayo.
kayo is a two candle pattern which formed when:
1.We have a pivot point with prior candles as left bars and following candles as right bar. Pivot candle called as second candle.
2.In a bullish kayo, first candle must closed descending and second candle must closed as ascending. For bearish kayo vise versa.
3.In a bullish kayo, second candle's lower wick must be longer then upper wick.
4. A pattern marked as kayo when its conditions do not correspond to any of the other patterns(include the confirmation that user added), ie it has the last naming priority over the other patterns.
Note 5.
When you active confirmation options for patterns like hammer, engulf and etc which they conditions are like kayo in some extent, if they can't pass the confirmation steps, they can be marked as kayo pattern.
Note 6.
If you active volume confirmation for Three white soldiers | Three black crows, the confirmation get passed if the volume of forth or third candle increased as value as entered relative to volume EMA3 of 3 candles.
Note 7.
In a bullish pattern all highs of following candles MUST be higher than prior highs and all lows of following candles MUST be higher than prior lows. For bearish patterns vise versa.
This type of confirmation depends on High and Low NOT close!

Tactical Holding [SwissAlgo]Tactical Holding
A visual framework for managing long-term positions across market cycles
--------------------------------------------------------------
Purpose
Instead of holding a fixed position through all market conditions , you can use this framework to adjust your exposure tactically . By reducing positions during distribution phases and accumulating during favorable accumulation zones, you may end up holding more units of the asset over complete market cycles - even if you temporarily exit or reduce exposure during unfavorable periods. This approach aims to help you compound your holdings by taking advantage of market volatility rather than simply enduring it.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Recommended Settings
Timeframe : Weekly (1W) chart
Chart Type : Standard candlesticks (select 'Bar' type Candles)
This indicator is designed for higher timeframe analysis. While it can be applied to other timeframes, the logic and signal generation are optimized for weekly charts to filter out short-term noise and focus on major market cycles.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Key Features
♦ Market State Classification
The indicator aims to categorize potential market conditions into five color-coded states based on technical confluences:
* Bull (bright green): Multiple bullish indicators align
* Bull Retrace (teal): Bullish structure with temporary weakness
* Bull ⇆ Bear Reversal (yellow): Transitional phase between trends
* Bear (bright red): Multiple bearish indicators align
* Bear Retrace (Pale Red/Maroon): Bearish structure with temporary strength
♦ Visual Elements
* Candles change color based on the current market state
* A 50-period EMA tracks with the same color coding, providing visual trend context
* Small arrow markers appear when specific pattern conditions are met (zones for potential distribution or accumulation)
* A legend table (toggle on/off) explains the color system
* A label shows the current state name on the chart
♦ Pattern Recognition
The system monitors for two types of potential entry/exit zones:
1. State transition patterns after periods of market regime consistency
2. RSI divergence patterns (when price and momentum move in opposite directions)
♦ Customization
* Toggle the legend table visibility through settings
* All calculations are transparent and use standard technical analysis methods
--------------------------------------------------------------
How It Works
Think of this indicator as a traffic light system for your portfolio:
♦ Green zones suggest the asset might be in an environment where long-term holders historically have remained invested
Bright green (Bull) : Multiple technical indicators align in a potentially strong bullish phase
Pale green (Bull Retrace) : Bullish structure remains intact, but momentum shows temporary weakness - often a pullback within an uptrend
♦ Red zones suggest conditions where long-term holders might consider reducing exposure or waiting for better entry points
Dark red (Bear) : Multiple technical indicators align in a potentially strong bearish phase
Pale red (Bear Retrace) : Bearish structure remains intact but shows temporary strength - often a bounce within a downtrend
♦ Yellow zones indicate the market is in transition between bull and bear regimes - a time for increased attention as the trend direction becomes uncertain
The system doesn't predict future prices. Instead, it helps you understand the current technical environment by doing the heavy lifting of analyzing multiple indicators at once and presenting them in a simple visual format.
Example: During the 2022 crypto bear market, the indicator would have displayed extended red periods, signaling defensive conditions for holders. When accumulation arrows appeared in late 2022-early 2023, it highlighted potential re-entry zones as the technical regime transitioned back toward green, before the 2024 recovery.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Who This Is For
♦ Long-term investors who want to hold assets through cycles but prefer a systematic approach to position sizing and timing rather than buying and never selling .
♦ Portfolio managers looking for a visual tool to help determine when to increase or decrease exposure to specific assets based on technical regime changes.
♦ Swing traders on higher timeframes who want to align their positions with the broader market structure rather than fighting the trend.
This is not designed for:
* Day traders or scalpers
* Those seeking exact entry/exit prices
* Automated trading systems (this is a visual decision-support tool)
--------------------------------------------------------------
Understanding the Visuals
When you apply Tactical Holding to a chart, you'll see:
1. Colored candles - Instantly see what market regime the asset is in
2. Colored EMA line (thick line) - Provides a dynamic support/resistance reference that changes color with market conditions
3. Small arrows (↑ ↓) - Mark bars where specific technical patterns complete
4. State label - Shows current market classification
5. Legend table (top right) - Quick reference guide for the color system
6. Warning banner (top center) - Reminds you to use weekly charts
The visual design prioritizes clarity over complexity. You should be able to glance at a chart and immediately understand the current technical environment.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Important Limitations
This indicator cannot:
* Predict future price movements
* Guarantee profitable trades
* Work equally well on all assets or timeframes
* Replace your own research and risk management
Technical considerations:
* Divergence detection has a 3-bar confirmation lag (by design, to avoid false signals)
* State transitions require multiple technical confirmations, which may cause delayed reactions to rapid market changes
* The system is reactive, not predictive - it responds to price action after it occurs
* Performance varies significantly between trending assets (like Solana) and stable assets (like Apple)
--------------------------------------------------------------
Practical Application
Consider using this indicator as one component of a broader investment framework:
♦ Understanding Position Context:
The color-coded states can help frame your thinking about current holdings:
Bull: Technical conditions that have historically been associated with sustained uptrends
Bull Retrace: Pullbacks within an overall bullish structure- these periods may offer opportunities to evaluate entry points or reassess existing positions
Reversal (Yellow): Transitional phases where the trend direction is unclear - periods that may warrant closer monitoring
Bear Retrace: Temporary strength within an overall bearish structure - rallies that historically have often faded
Bear: Technical conditions that have historically been associated with sustained downtrends
♦ Interpreting Signal Arrows:
Arrow markers indicate when specific technical pattern conditions have been met. These are observation points, not instructions:
A signal appearing doesn't mean immediate action is required
Treat arrows as prompts for further analysis rather than automatic triggers
Consider the broader context: fundamentals, your investment timeline, risk tolerance, and overall market conditions
Signals show when historical technical patterns have formed - not whether those patterns will lead to the same outcomes as in the past
The framework is designed to organize information visually, not to tell you what to do. Your investment decisions should incorporate this technical perspective alongside other factors relevant to your situation.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Technical Methodology
For transparency, the indicator uses:
* RSI (14) with a 14-period SMA to assess momentum direction
* MACD (12,26,9) to confirm trend strength and histogram momentum
* Stochastic RSI with K and D line crossovers for additional confirmation
* 50-period EMA as the primary trend filter
* Linear regression-based slope analysis to detect flat/transitional periods
* Pivot-based divergence detection following standard technical analysis principles
All calculations use publicly available technical analysis formulas. Nothing is hidden or proprietary beyond the specific combination and weighting of these standard tools.

• Not a "holy grail" - combine with other analysis and proper risk management
• Requires patience - quality setups are infrequent but high-probability
• Always backtest on historical data before live trading
ELLIOTT WAVE THEORY BACKGROUND
------------------------------
Elliott Wave Theory, developed by Ralph Nelson Elliott in the 1930s, proposes that market prices move in predictable wave patterns driven by investor psychology. An impulse wave consists of five sub-waves (three in the trend direction, two corrections), followed by a three-wave correction. This indicator automates the identification of these patterns and validates them against Elliott's original rules.
DISCLAIMER
----------
This indicator is for educational and informational purposes only. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always conduct your own analysis and never trade with money you cannot afford to lose. The indicator provides signals based on technical analysis patterns and does not constitute financial advice.

Engulfing Pattern[SpeculationLab]Overview
This script detects two types of engulfing / outer bar patterns and marks them directly on the chart:
Body Engulfing – The current candle’s body range (open–close) completely covers the entire range (high–low) of the previous candle.
Range Engulfing – The current candle’s full range (high–low, including wicks) completely covers the entire range (high–low) of the previous candle.
Direction logic:
Bull – The previous candle is bearish and the selected engulfing rule is met.
Bear – The previous candle is bullish and the selected engulfing rule is met.
Optional: Require the current candle to have the opposite color of the previous one.
This is an open-source pattern recognition tool for learning, backtesting, and chart review. It is not financial advice.
Key Features
Two detection modes:
body – Body engulfs previous entire range
range – Wicks engulf previous entire range
Direction detection based on the previous candle’s color, with optional opposite-color confirmation
Chart markers: “BULL” /“BEAR” above bars
Alert-ready: built-in conditions for bullish and bearish engulfing patterns
Parameters
Engulfing Type: body / range
body: Current body must fully cover the previous candle’s high–low range
range: Current full range (high–low) must fully cover the previous candle’s high–low range
Require Opposite Previous Candle (default: off):
When enabled, the engulfing pattern must also have the opposite color from the previous candle to trigger
Usage Tips
Engulfing patterns are price action structures; combine with trend, key levels, and volume for context
Signals confirm on bar close (barstate.isconfirmed) to reduce repainting
Can be used with personal risk management rules (stop-loss, take-profit, filters)
Disclaimer
For educational and research purposes only – not financial advice
Past performance of patterns does not guarantee future results
Trading involves risk; always manage it responsibly

Candle/Keltner Channels BUY SELLWhy Use Candlesticks?
They help traders visualize price action
Used in technical analysis and price pattern recognition (e.g., Doji, Engulfing, Hammer)
Assist in determining entry and exit points
Why Traders Use Keltner Channels?
Keltner Channels are widely used by traders for identifying trends, detecting volatility, and spotting trade opportunities.
1. Trend Identification
The middle line (EMA) shows the general trend.
If price consistently stays above the middle line, it indicates a strong uptrend.
If price stays below, it signals a downtrend.
Use: Traders follow the trend direction to enter trades in line with momentum.
2. Volatility Measurement
The width of the channel expands and contracts based on Average True Range (ATR).
Wider channels = high volatility, tighter channels = low volatility.
Use: Helps traders decide when to expect breakouts or calm periods.
3. Breakout Signals
A break above the upper band can signal a bullish breakout.
A break below the lower band can signal a bearish breakout.
Use: Traders use this for momentum trading and breakout entries.
4. Overbought/Oversold Conditions
Price touching or crossing the upper band may suggest it's overbought.
Price touching or crossing the lower band may suggest it's oversold.
Use: Traders combine this with RSI or MACD to confirm reversal setups.
5. Trade Entry and Exit
When price pulls back to the middle EMA during a trend, it may present a buy/sell opportunity.
Exits can also be planned if price returns inside the bands after a breakout.
Use: Helps with precise entry and exit timing.
6. Combines Well With Other Indicators
Commonly used with:
RSI (for confirmation)
MACD (for momentum)
Candlestick patterns (for price action signals)
Combining Candlestick Patterns with Keltner Channels gives traders a powerful method to confirm entries, spot reversals, and improve accuracy. Here’s why this combination works so well:
1. Context for Candlestick Signals
Candlestick patterns (like doji, engulfing, or pin bars) show potential price reversals, but they need context to be reliable. Keltner Channels provide that context:
A bullish candlestick near the lower band suggests a stronger buy signal.
A bearish candlestick near the upper band strengthens a sell signal.
2. Filtering False Signals
Candlestick patterns occur frequently, and not all are meaningful.
The location within the Keltner Channel helps filter out weak or false patterns.
Example: A bullish engulfing candle outside the lower band = high-probability reversal.
3. Improved Entry Timing
Traders wait for a candlestick pattern confirmation when price touches or crosses a Keltner band.
This avoids premature entries and allows tighter stop-losses.
4. Better Risk-Reward Setup
Candlestick entry near channel extremes (upper/lower band) lets traders place stop-losses just beyond recent highs/lows.
The target can be the opposite side of the channel or the middle EMA.
5. Visual Simplicity
Keltner Channels + Candles are visually intuitive.
Even beginner traders can easily recognize:
Overextended candles near channel edges.
Confirmed breakouts or reversals.

Artaking 2Components of the Indicator:
Moving Averages:
Short-Term Moving Average (MA): This is a 50-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) applied to the closing price. It is used to track the short-term trend of the market.
Long-Term Moving Average (MA): This is a 200-period SMA used to track the long-term trend.
Day Trading Moving Average: A 20-period SMA is used specifically for day trading signals, focusing on shorter-term price movements.
Purpose:
The crossing of these moving averages (short-term crossing above or below long-term) provides basic buy and sell signals, indicative of potential trend reversals or continuations.
ADX (Average Directional Index) for Trend Strength:
ADX Calculation: The ADX is calculated using a 14-period length with 14-period smoothing. The ADX value indicates the strength of a trend, regardless of direction.
Strong Trend Condition: The indicator considers a trend to be strong if the ADX value is above 25. This threshold helps filter out trades during weak or sideways markets.
Purpose:
To ensure that the strategy only generates signals when there is a strong trend, thus avoiding whipsaws in low volatility or range-bound conditions.
Support Levels:
Support Level Calculation: The indicator calculates the lowest close over the last 100 periods. This level is used to identify significant support zones where the price might find a floor.
Purpose:
Support levels are critical in identifying potential areas where the price might bounce, making them ideal for setting stop losses or identifying buy opportunities.
Volatility Spike (Proxy for News Trading):
ATR (Average True Range) Calculation: The indicator uses a 14-period ATR to measure market volatility. A volatility spike is identified when the ATR is greater than 1.5 times the 14-period SMA of the ATR.
Purpose:
This serves as a proxy for news events or other sudden market movements that could make the market unpredictable. The indicator avoids generating signals during these periods to reduce the risk of being caught in a volatile, potentially news-driven move.
Fibonacci Retracement Levels:
61.8% Fibonacci Level: Calculated from the highest high and lowest low over the long MA period, this retracement level is widely regarded as a significant support or resistance level.
Purpose:
Position traders often use Fibonacci levels to identify potential reversal points. The indicator incorporates the 61.8% level to fine-tune entries and exits.
Candlestick Patterns for Price Action Trading:
Bullish Engulfing Pattern: A bullish reversal pattern where a green candle fully engulfs the previous red candle.
Bearish Engulfing Pattern: A bearish reversal pattern where a red candle fully engulfs the previous green candle.
Purpose:
These patterns are classic signals used in price action trading to identify potential reversals at key levels, especially when they align with other conditions like support/resistance or Fibonacci levels.
Signal Generation:
The indicator generates buy and sell signals by combining the above elements:
Buy Signal:
A buy signal is triggered when:
The short-term MA crosses above the long-term MA (indicating a potential uptrend).
The trend is strong (ADX > 25).
The current price is near or below the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level, suggesting a potential reversal.
No significant volatility spike is detected, ensuring the market isn’t reacting unpredictably to news.
Sell Signal:
A sell signal is triggered when:
The short-term MA crosses below the long-term MA (indicating a potential downtrend).
The trend is strong (ADX > 25).
The current price is near or above the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level, suggesting potential resistance.
No significant volatility spike is detected.
Day Trading Signals:
Independent of the main trend signals, the indicator also generates intraday buy and sell signals when the price crosses above or below the 20-period day trading MA.
Price Action Signals:
The indicator can trigger buy or sell signals based purely on price action, such as the occurrence of bullish or bearish engulfing patterns. This is optional and can be enabled or disabled.
Alerts:
The indicator includes built-in alert conditions that notify the trader when a buy or sell signal is generated. This allows traders to act immediately without having to constantly monitor the charts.
Practical Application:
This indicator is versatile and can be used across various trading styles:
Position Trading: The long-term MA, Fibonacci retracement, and ADX provide a solid foundation for identifying long-term trends and potential entry/exit points.
Day Trading: The short-term MA and day trading MA offer quick signals for intraday trading.
Price Action: Candlestick pattern recognition allows for precise entry points based on market sentiment and behavior.
News Trading: The volatility spike filter helps avoid trading during periods of market instability, often driven by news events.
Conclusion:
The Comprehensive Trading Strategy Indicator is a robust tool designed to help traders navigate various market conditions by integrating multiple strategies into a single, coherent framework. It provides clear, actionable signals while filtering out potentially dangerous trades during volatile or weak market conditions. Whether you're a long-term trader, a day trader, or someone who relies on price action, this indicator can be a valuable addition to your trading toolkit.
Enhanced Forex IndicatorDescription of the "Enhanced Forex Indicator"
The "Enhanced Forex Indicator" is designed for traders who want a comprehensive technical analysis tool on the TradingView platform. This script integrates Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), support and resistance zones, and candlestick pattern recognition to provide actionable trading signals, particularly useful for Forex and other financial markets. The script is suitable for intraday trading and swing trading.
Components of the Indicator
Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs):
Short EMA (Blue Line): Faster responding average, good for identifying recent trend changes.
Long EMA (Red Line): Slower moving average, helps in confirming longer-term trends.
Support and Resistance Zones:
Resistance Zone (Red): Area where potential selling pressure could overcome buying pressure, halting price increases temporarily or reversing them.
Support Zone (Green): Area where potential buying pressure could overcome selling pressure, supporting prices and preventing them from falling further.
Candlestick Patterns:
Bullish Engulfing Pattern (Green Triangle Up 'BE'): Suggests a potential upward reversal or start of a bullish trend.
Bearish Engulfing Pattern (Red Triangle Down 'BE'): Indicates a potential downward reversal or start of a bearish trend.
Buy/Sell Signals:
Buy Signal (Green Label 'BUY'): Triggered when the price is above both EMAs and a bullish engulfing pattern is detected.
Sell Signal (Red Label 'SELL'): Triggered when the price is below both EMAs and a bearish engulfing pattern is detected.
Trading Setup:
Entry: Consider entering a buy position when the 'BUY' signal appears, indicating bullish conditions. Enter a sell position when the 'SELL' signal appears, indicating bearish conditions.
Exit: Look for closing signals opposite your entry or use predefined take profit and stop loss levels. For instance, exit a buy position on a 'SELL' signal or when the price drops below the support zone.
Risk Management:
Set stop losses just below the support zone for buy orders and above the resistance zone for sell orders to protect against significant losses.
Adjust position sizes according to your risk tolerance and account balance.
Considerations:
Use this indicator in conjunction with other analysis tools and fundamental data to confirm signals and strengthen your trading strategy.
Periodically backtest the strategy based on this indicator to ensure its effectiveness in current market conditions.
Optimization:
Adjust the lengths of the EMAs and the buffer size of the support and resistance zones to better fit the asset's volatility and your trading timeframe.
Candle Anatomy (feat. Dr. Rupward)# Candle Anatomy (feat. Dr. Rupward)
## Overview
This indicator dissects a single Higher Timeframe (HTF) candle and displays it separately on the right side of your chart with detailed anatomical analysis. Instead of cluttering your entire chart with analysis on every candle, this tool focuses on what matters most: understanding the structure and strength of the most recent HTF candle.
---
## Why I Built This
When analyzing price action, I often found myself manually calculating wick-to-body ratios, estimating retracement levels, and trying to gauge candle strength. This indicator automates that process and presents it in a clean, visual format.
The "Dr. Rupward" theme is just for fun – a lighthearted way to present technical analysis. Think of it as your chart's "health checkup." Don't take it too seriously, but do take the data seriously!
---
## How It Works
### 1. Candle Decomposition
The indicator breaks down the HTF candle into three components:
- **Upper Wick %** = (High - max(Open, Close)) / Range × 100
- **Body %** = |Close - Open| / Range × 100
- **Lower Wick %** = (min(Open, Close) - Low) / Range × 100
Where Range = High - Low
### 2. Strength Assessment
Based on body percentage:
- **Strong** (≥70%): High conviction move, trend likely to continue
- **Moderate** (40-69%): Normal price action
- **Weak** (<40%): Indecision, potential reversal or consolidation
### 3. Pressure Analysis
- **Upper Wick** indicates selling pressure (bulls pushed up, but sellers rejected)
- **Lower Wick** indicates buying pressure (bears pushed down, but buyers rejected)
Thresholds:
- ≥30%: Strong pressure
- 15-29%: Moderate pressure
- <15%: Weak pressure
### 4. Pattern Recognition
The indicator automatically detects:
| Pattern | Condition |
|---------|-----------|
| Doji | Body < 10% |
| Hammer | Lower wick ≥ 60%, Upper wick < 10%, Body < 35% |
| Shooting Star | Upper wick ≥ 60%, Lower wick < 10%, Body < 35% |
| Marubozu | Body ≥ 90% |
| Spinning Top | Body < 30%, Both wicks > 25% |
### 5. Fibonacci Levels
Displays key Fibonacci retracement and extension levels based on the candle's range:
**Retracement:** 0, 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.786, 1.0
**Extension:** 1.272, 1.618, 2.0, 2.618
**Negative Extension:** -0.272, -0.618, -1.0
These levels help identify potential support/resistance if price retraces into or extends beyond the analyzed candle.
### 6. Comparison with Previous Candle
When enabled, displays the previous HTF candle (semi-transparent) alongside the current one. This allows you to:
- Compare range expansion/contraction
- Observe momentum shifts
- Identify continuation or reversal setups
---
## Settings Explained
### Display Settings
- **Analysis Timeframe**: The HTF candle to analyze (default: Daily)
- **Offset from Chart**: Distance from the last bar (default: 15)
- **Candle Width**: Visual width of the anatomy candle
- **Show Previous Candle**: Toggle comparison view
### Fibonacci Levels
- Toggle individual levels on/off based on your preference
- Retracement levels for pullback analysis
- Extension levels for target projection
### Diagnosis Panel
- Shows pattern name, strength assessment, and expected behavior
- Can be toggled off if you prefer minimal display
---
## Use Cases
1. **Swing Trading**: Analyze daily candle structure before entering on lower timeframes
2. **Trend Confirmation**: Strong body % with minimal upper wick = healthy trend
3. **Reversal Detection**: Hammer/Shooting Star patterns with high wick %
4. **Target Setting**: Use Fibonacci extensions for take-profit levels
---
## Notes
- This indicator is designed for analysis, not for generating buy/sell signals
- Works best on liquid markets with clean price action
- The "diagnosis" is algorithmic interpretation, not financial advice
- Combine with your own analysis and risk management
---
## About the Name
"Dr. Rupward" is a playful persona I created – combining "Right" + "Upward" (my trading philosophy) with a doctor theme because we're "diagnosing" candle health. It's meant to make technical analysis a bit more fun and approachable. Enjoy!

Candle Intelligence🔹 Candle Intelligence (IM-CI)
Candle Intelligence (IM-CI) is a context-only intraday market behavior indicator designed to help traders understand how price is behaving, not where to buy or sell.
This tool classifies individual candles, detects short-term behavioral patterns, and displays a non-blocking market state to improve decision awareness during live trading.
⚠️ IM-CI does NOT generate buy/sell signals.It is strictly intended for market context, confirmation, and study.
🔍 What This Indicator Does
🧠 Candle Intelligence Layer
Each candle is classified based on volatility-adjusted behavior using ATR:
Strong expansion candles
Normal directional candles
Weak / neutral candles
These classifications are shown as compact candle codes (optional) to quickly read price behavior without clutter.
📐 Pattern Recognition (Context Only)
IM-CI detects short, non-predictive behavioral patterns, such as:
Compression
Absorption
Momentum bursts
Distribution
These patterns are displayed as soft zones, not signals, helping traders visually study how price reacts around key moments.
Cooldown logic is used to prevent repetitive pattern noise.
🌐 Market State Engine
The indicator continuously evaluates recent candle behavior and VWAP positioning to describe the current market condition, such as:
Expansion
Extended
Distribution
Balanced
This state is shown in a small HUD panel and is designed to:
Reduce emotional over-trading
Identify unsuitable market conditions
Improve alignment with higher-probability environments
⚙️ Key Features
ATR-aware candle classification
VWAP extension detection
Timeframe-adaptive candle code visibility
Non-repainting logic
Clean, lightweight HUD panel
Designed for intraday futures & index trading
🛠 How to Use
Use IM-CI as a context filter, not a trigger
Combine with your own execution system
Avoid trading during Extended or unclear states
Best suited for lower timeframes (1–5 min)
⚠️ Disclaimer
This indicator is provided for educational and informational purposes only. It does not constitute financial advice and should not be used as a standalone trading system.

Padder Scalp - Manipulation Triangle + First 15m Session BoxThis indicator combines intraday manipulation detection with session‑based structure and key candlestick pattern labeling to support precision scalp trading.
1. Manipulation Candle Detection (Daily ATR‑Based)
The script calculates the Daily ATR(14) and compares each intraday candle’s range to it.
If a candle’s range is ≥ 20% of the daily ATR, it is flagged as a potential manipulation candle.
A purple triangle is plotted beneath any candle that meets this threshold, helping traders quickly spot abnormal volatility spikes that often precede liquidity grabs or engineered moves.
2. First 15‑Minute RTH Session Box (9:30–9:45 AM)
Designed for use on a 15‑minute chart, the script automatically identifies the first bar of the regular trading session (RTH).
When the 9:30–9:45 candle prints:
- Its high and low are captured
- A session box is created using those levels
- The box extends across the entire trading day
This provides a consistent structural reference point for opening‑range dynamics, liquidity sweeps, and intraday bias.
3. Automatic Box Extension
Once the first RTH candle is detected, the script draws a blue box from that candle’s high/low and continuously extends it to the right for the remainder of the session.
This creates a persistent visual anchor for:
- Breakouts
- Retests
- Rejections
- Mean‑reversion scalps
4. Candlestick Pattern Detection + Labels
The script identifies and labels four high‑value reversal/continuation patterns:
- Bullish Engulfing → green label above the candle
- Bearish Engulfing → red label below the candle
- Hammer → yellow label below the candle
- Inverted Hammer → orange label above the candle
These labels help traders quickly spot actionable price‑action signals without manually scanning every bar.
Overall Purpose
This tool blends volatility‑based manipulation detection, opening‑range structure, and real‑time candlestick pattern recognition into a single, clean visual system.
It’s built for scalpers and intraday traders who rely on:
- Opening‑range levels
- Liquidity cues
- Manipulation signals
- Price‑action confirmation
to time entries with precision.
