Momentum-based ZigZag (incl. QQE) NON-REPAINTINGI spent a lot of time searching for the best ZigZag indicator. Difficulty with all of them is that they are always betting on some pre-defined rules which identify or confirm pivot points. Usually it is time factor - pivot point gets confirmed after a particular number of candles. This methodology is probably the best when market is moving relatively slow, but when price starts chopping up and down, there is no way the ZigZag follows accurately. On the other hand if you set it too tight (for example pivot confirmation after only 2 or even 1 candle), you will get hundreds of zigzag lines and they will tell you nothing.
My point of view is to follow the market. If it has reversed, then it has reversed, and there is no need to wait pre-defined number of candles for the confirmation. Such reversals will always be visible on momentum indicators, such as the most popular MACD. But a single-line moving average can be also good enough to notice reversals. Or my favourite one - QQE, which I borrowed (and improved) from JustUncleL, who borrowed it from Glaz, who borrowed it from... I don't even know where Quantitative Qualitative Estimation originates from. Thanks to all these guys for their input and code.
So whichever momentum indicator you choose - yes, there is a pick-your-poison-type selector as in in-famous Moving Average indicators - once it reverses, a highest (or lowest) point from the impulse is caught and ZigZag gets printed.
One thing I need to emphasize. This indicator DOES NOT REPAINT. It might look like the lines are a bit delayed, especially when compared to all the other ZigZag indicators on TradingView, but they are actually TRUE. There is a value in this - my indicator prints pivot points and Zigzag exactly on the moment they have been noticed, not earlier faking to be faster than they could be.
As a bonus, the indicator marks which impulse had strength in it. It is very nice to see a progressing impulse, but without force - a very likely that reversal on a bigger move is happening.
I'm about to publish some more scripts based on this ZigZag algo, so follow me on TradingView to get notified.
Enjoy!

Trend Key PointsEach trend has its high and low key points that are important in the next prices. Sometimes it's hard to find out the keys with a naked eye, so I tried to code a simple indicator to marking these points also, as a bonus, to draw support and resistance lines from previous critical pivot points.
Let me explain the details with a downtrend. If we consider the previous trend, each downtrend starts with a HH and end with a LL. There are always many tries between that HH and LL to turn the trend up. This indicator counts that inner attempts. The higher the number of attempts, the more important move has been started from the beginning (HH). These numbers take their final form when the trend ends and are included in the label at the beginning of each trend.
Key points with 3 and more inner tries are consider as critical point by default but It's alterable and you can change it as you want. The indicator draws lines from critical points too, so you can use that lines as support and resistance in next candles.
Likewise, there are marks below inner LLs and above inner HHs.
This indicator idea is entirely my own and is a product I've really thought about, AND you have allowed to use and share it anywhere to anyone. I did my best to make it useful, even so I am open to any improvement. If you have an idea or a suggestion, don't forget to leave a comment.
John Carter Pivot Points
This script is based on John Carter Mastering The Trade book. Pivot calculation is based on the previous day high, low, and close.
What Are the Trading Rules for Pivot Buys on Trending Days?
Sells are reversed.
1. Each day I update the appropriate pivot levels on the charts to reflect the previous day’s action. On Mondays, I also
update the weekly pivots, and on the first trading day of a new month, I update the monthly pivots.
2. The first pivot play is done in conjunction with the gap, if there is one. If there is a gap down, then I buy a decline into
the closest pivot level. If there isn’t a playable gap (more than 10 YM points or 1 ES point), then I will wait until
9:45 a.m. eastern to initiate the first play.
3. If the volume on the five-minute ES chart is more than 25,000 contracts, then I’ll wait for the markets to penetrate a
pivot level and move up at least a quarter of the way to the next pivot level. Once this happens, I will then set up a
bid to buy the first retracement back to the violated pivot level.
4. I enter my trades with limit orders only. I place orders “just in front of” the pivot. For the YM, I use 3 points; for the
ES, 0.25 point; for the NQ, 0.50 point; for the TF, 0.20 point; and for individual stocks, 5 cents. For example, if I’m
trading the YM and the pivot level is 10,000, then I would buy a decline to 10,003 and short a rally to 9997
.Sometimes the pivot will be an odd number, such as 1117.38 on the ES. In this case, I always round in the direction of
the trade. So, if I’m bidding for a long, I will round 1117.38 to 1117.50, and my bid will be 1117.75. If I’m offering a
short, I will round 1117.38 down to 1117.25 and place my offer at 1117.00. My stops and targets, then, would be “just
in front of” these appropriate long and short levels.
5. Once filled, I place an order to close the first half at the next pivot level and the second half at the pivot level after
that, using the same “just in front of” parameters.
6. I place a stop at 20 points for the YM, 2 points for the ES, 4 points for the NQ, and 1.50 points for the Russell. For
stocks, I will use a stop based roughly on the price of the stock. If the stock is under $10 a share, I will use a stop of
20 cents. If it is between $10 and $20, I will use a stop of 30 cents; if it is between $20 and $30, I will use a stop of
40 cents, and so on, adding another 10 cents for each $10 increment in price. (A $75 stock would have an 80-cent
stop, for example.)
7. If the first target is hit, I will then move up the stop to my entry-level pivot, minus the “just in front of” fractions
discussed in rule 3. For example, if I get in a YM long at 10,003 and the pivot is at 10,000, then my new stop would
be 9997 once the first target is hit.
8. If I am in a trade at the market close and neither my stop nor my target has been hit, I will close out my position “at the
market” at 4:10 p.m. eastern for futures, and at 3:58 p.m. eastern for stocks.
9. I don’t initiate any new positions after 3:30 p.m. eastern, but I will manage existing positions into the close.
10. The markets rarely have a sustained move above R3 or below S3. If I trade to those levels, I will always fade the
move.
11. After two losers in a row, I’m done with pivots for the day.
What Are the Trading Rules for Pivot Buys on Choppy Days?
Once again, sells are the same, just reversed. The rules for choppy days are identical except for the targets. On choppy days, I
just focus on the YM and the ES. My first target is mechanical: 10 points for the YM and 1 point for the ES on half of my
position. Once this is hit, I will trail up my stop in the same way I would for a trending trade. The second target becomes the
“just in front of” level for the actual next pivot level
Strategy - Bobo PAPATRHi I've revamped this bot mentioned in the linked idea to make it work with v4 of pine. In doing so there are some very significant changes to how it works. The main one is that it no longer uses traditional daily pivot calculations to calculate the bands. It creates a more dynamic intraday set of pivot points based on recent price action rather than yesterday's ohlc. As published, the bot is tuned for a 15 min time frame. But it actually works well on lower time frames you just need to adjust the lookback periods in settings a bit to re tune it. It's also tuned to ES really but will need tweaking for a different instrument at the very least.
The basic concept is recent price action is used to calculate a 'middle' around which red and green bands are located. Their position or width is largely determined by recent volatility. The middle line is again calculated from recent price action. The three lines from that form a tradeable range with green at the top and red at the bottom. The strategy is simple enough, it shorts as it sinks from outside red, and longs when rising above green. The basic principle being that once you enter that range you have a high probability of hitting the middle before you hit your stop loss. So the basic principle is you are trying to capture the inherent ranginess of liquid indices like S&P 500. That back and forth movement that happens. The bot is capturing this by fading extremes of a recent range but the problem with that is you'dd get murdered in a strong trend. To mitigate that there is a trend calculation running in the background the will prevent trading against firm trends mostly. So the bot should trade mostly in rangy conditions because that is what it is trying to do.
Bot will close issue close signals automatically upon crossing the middle, it also will close automatically at predefined stops or limits. These values are denominated in market mintick values. For example the CFD SPX500 has a mintick of 0.1. Therefore a stop value of 100 will equate to 10 points on the index. If trading the same market via ES1! the mintick value is different - 0.25. So in this case a value of 40 is required to set the stop at 10 points.
Anyway shout if you have questions. Hope it's useful.

Average Pivot Range - JDThe "Average Pivot Indicator" is an alternative to the "Average True Range"
and is based in "pivot points" calculated with a Jurik ma, (same as the "Zero-Lag"ZigZag")
the indicator calculates the range in the price swing between the two last pivot points.
A green/red candle shows the range that price has risen/fallen since the last swing low/high
As with the normal ATR, this can be used to set price targets, stoplosses, to gauge volatility,...
I added an option to insert a commission/fee percentage to make it easy to see if a timeframe is worth trading
or if you will likely get "eaten" by fees.
(note the fee should be entered per transaction!! The indicator will calculate it one time for entry and once for exit)
The indicator can be displayed in percentage (upper chart) or in absolute value/ticks (lower chart)
The normal ATR is added too, so you don't have to chose which one you add to your chart! ;-)
if you find other uses, please leave your ideas in the comments!
Shoutout to Everget for the awesome Jurik code!!

Eminaest Pivots V2Simple Pivot Points plotting script.
You can choose to plot Daily, Weekly and Monthly Pivot Points. Separate or two of them or all together.
RSI Cascade DivergencesRSI Cascade Divergences is a tool for detecting divergences between price and RSI with an extended cascade-based strength accumulation logic. A “cascade” represents a sequence of multiple divergences linked through RSI pivot points. The indicator records RSI pivots, checks whether a divergence is present, assigns a strength value to each structure, and displays only signals that meet your minimum strength thresholds.
How Divergence Logic Works
The indicator identifies local RSI extremes (pivots) based on Pivot Length and Pivot Confirm.
For every confirmed pivot it stores:
the RSI value at the pivot,
the corresponding value of the RSI Source price,
the pivot’s bar index.
How a Divergence Is Formed
A divergence is detected when two consecutive RSI pivots of the same type show opposite dynamics relative to the price source defined in RSI Source (default: close), not relative to chart highs/lows.
Bearish divergence: the price source value at the second pivot is higher, but RSI forms a lower high.
Bullish divergence: the price source value at the second pivot is lower, but RSI forms a higher low.
The indicator does not use price highs/lows — only the selected price source at the pivot points.
Cascade Strength Calculation
Each new pivot is compared only with the previous pivot of the same type.
A cascade grows in strength if:
divergence conditions are met,
the difference in RSI values exceeds Min. RSI Distance,
the previous structure already had some strength or the previous pivot was formed in the OB/OS zone.
If the divergence occurs as RSI exits OB/OS, strength is additionally increased by +1.
Behavior in Strong Trends
Divergences may appear repeatedly and even form cascades with high strength. However, if price does not react meaningfully, this indicates strong trend pressure.
In such cases, divergences stop functioning as reversal signals:
RSI attempts to counter-move, but the dominant trend continues.
The indicator accurately reflects this — cascades may form but fail to trigger any reversal, which itself suggests a powerful, persistent trend.
Filtering and Context Reset
To avoid retaining irrelevant pivots:
when RSI is above Overbought → low pivots are cleared;
when RSI is below Oversold → high pivots are cleared.
This prevents false cascades during extreme RSI conditions.
Input Parameters
RSI Source — price source used in RSI calculations (close, hl2, ohlc4, etc.).
RSI Length — RSI calculation period.
Overbought / Oversold — RSI threshold zones.
Pivot Length — number of bars to the left required for a pivot.
Pivot Confirm — bars to the right required to confirm the pivot.
Min. RSI Distance — minimum difference between two pivot RSI values for the divergence to be considered meaningful.
Min. Strength (Bull / Bear) — minimum accumulated strength for:
confirming the signal,
displaying the strength label,
triggering alerts.
Weaker signals below these thresholds appear as dashed guide structures.
Visual
Display settings for lines, markers, and colors.
These parameters do not affect the indicator logic.
Important
Divergences — including cascades — should not be used as a standalone trading signal.
Always combine them with broader market context, trend analysis, structure, volume, and risk management tools.

Market Structure Pivots TrendThis indicator identifies and visualizes key market structure by plotting confirmed, non-repainting pivot points. It goes beyond simple markers by classifying the pivots, extending dynamic support/resistance lines, and providing a visual representation of the current trend state.
Key Features:
Non-Repainting Pivot Detection:
Uses a standard lookback method (left and right bars) to identify historical pivot points.
Note on Confirmation: Pivots are only confirmed after the Pivot Right Bars input has passed. This is essential for ensuring the signal is non-repainting, but it introduces an inherent lag.
Automatically classifies the sequence of pivots according to Dow Theory: Higher Highs (HH), Higher Lows (HL), Lower Highs (LH), and Lower Lows (LL).
Pivot Classification Filter:
Price Tolerance Filter: A user-defined percentage tolerance filters out insignificant market noise. A pivot is only classified as 'Higher' or 'Lower' if its price exceeds the previous one by more than the set tolerance, leading to more robust signals.
Equal Pivot Detection: The tolerance also enables the detection of Equal Highs (EH) and Equal Lows (EL), highlighting consolidation zones.
Dynamic Support & Resistance Lines:
When enabled, the indicator extends a horizontal line from the most recent confirmed pivot high and low.
These lines update in real-time, providing clear S/R levels.
Lines automatically terminate if the price decisively breaks through them or if a new pivot of the same type is formed.
Trend State Visualization:
A built-in state machine analyzes the sequence of pivots and breaks to determine the current market trend (Uptrend, Downtrend, or Neutral).
Plots a dynamic step-line based on recent highs/lows to visually represent the current trend state.
Full Customization & Alerts:
Display Options: Choose between simple triangles or detailed text labels that show the pivot type, price, and the absolute or relative change from the previous pivot of the same type.
Visual Styling: Full control over colors for all six pivot types (HH, LH, EH, LL, HL, EL) and line styles.
Comprehensive Alerts: Set up alerts for every new pivot formation (e.g., HH, LL), for S/R line breaks, and for changes in the overall trend state (Up, Down, Neutral).

Price Trendlines + Break Signals█ OVERVIEW
The "Price Trendlines + Break Signals" indicator is a technical analysis tool that automatically draws trendlines based on price pivot points and detects breakout signals. Designed for traders seeking precise market signals, the indicator identifies key pivot points, draws trendlines (resistance and support), and generates breakout signals with background highlighting. It offers flexible settings and alerts for breakout signals.
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator was created to provide traders with an alternative source of signals based on trendlines. Breakouts and bounces from trendlines can signal a trend change or the end of a correction. Combining these signals with other technical analysis tools can form the basis for building diverse trading strategies.
█ FEATURES
-Pivot Point Calculation: The indicator identifies pivot points (pivot high and pivot low) based on the closing price, with configurable left and right bars for pivot detection. Setting a higher number of bars results in fewer but more significant trendlines, with a delay corresponding to the specified length. Lower values generate more trendlines, but they are less significant. Crossovers are signaled only after the trendline is drawn, so sometimes no signals appear on crossed trendlines—this indicates the price passed through the line before it was detected.
- Trendlines: Draws trendlines connecting price pivot points—upper lines for downtrends (resistance) and lower lines for uptrends (support). Lines can be extended by a specified number of bars (default: 50).
- Tolerance Margin: Trendlines are widened by a tolerance margin, calculated using the average candle body size over a specified period and its multiplier. Reducing the multiplier to zero leaves only the trendline without a margin. Breaking this zone is a condition for generating signals.
- Breakout Signals: Generates signals when the price breaks through a trendline (bullish for upper lines, bearish for lower lines), with background highlighting for signal confirmation.
Alerts: Built-in alerts for:
- Upper trendline breakout (bullish signal).
- Lower trendline breakout (bearish signal).
Customization: Allows adjustment of pivot parameters, trendline extension length, tolerance margin, line colors, fills, and signal background transparency.
█ HOW TO USE
Adding the Indicator: Add the indicator to your TradingView chart via the Pine Editor or Indicators menu.
Configuring Settings:
- Left Bars for Pivot: Number of bars back for detecting pivots (default: 10).
- Right Bars for Pivot: Number of bars forward to confirm pivots (default: 10).
- Extend past 2nd pivot: Number of bars to extend the trendline after the second pivot (default: 50, 0 = no extension).
- Average Body Periods: Period for calculating the average candle body size used for the tolerance margin (default: 100).
- Tolerance Multiplier: Multiplier for the tolerance margin based on the average candle body size (default: 1.0).
Colors and Style:
- Upper trendline (resistance): default red.
- Lower trendline (support): default green.
- Line fills: colors with transparency (default 70).
- Signal background: green for bullish signals, red for bearish signals (default transparency 85).
Interpreting Signals:
- Trendlines: Upper lines (red) indicate a downtrend, lower lines (green) indicate an uptrend. Signals appear after a trendline breakout with the tolerance margin. Each trendline generates only one breakout signal, though it may still act as resistance or support for the price.
- Breakout Signals: Green background indicates an upper trendline breakout (bullish), red background indicates a lower trendline breakout (bearish).
- Alerts: Set up alerts in TradingView for trendline breakout signals.
Combining with Other Tools: Use with support/resistance levels, Fibonacci levels, RSI, pivot points, or FVG (Fair Value Gap) for signal confirmation.
█ APPLICATIONS
The "Price Trendlines + Break Signals" indicator is designed to identify trends and potential reversal points, supporting both trend-following and contrarian strategies:
- Trend Confirmation: Trendlines indicate the direction of the price trend, and bounces from them may signal the end of a correction.
- Reversal Strategies: Breakout signals can be used as cues to enter positions in anticipation of a trend change or correction.
- Noise Filtering: The tolerance margin reduces false signals, enhancing reliability.
█ NOTES
- Trendline crossovers are signaled only after the trendline is drawn, so sometimes no signals appear on crossed trendlines—this indicates the price passed through the line before it was detected.
- Each trendline generates only one breakout signal, though it may still act as a level of support or resistance for the price.
- Setting a higher number of bars for pivots results in fewer but more significant trendlines, with a delay corresponding to the specified length. Lower values generate more trendlines, but they are less significant.
- Adjust settings (e.g., number of bars for pivots, tolerance multiplier) to suit your trading style and timeframe.
- Combine with other technical analysis tools, such as RSI, pivot points, or FVG, to enhance signal accuracy.
- For high-volatility markets, consider increasing the tolerance margin to reduce false signals.
Trend Lines by Pivots (Enhanced)### **📌 Detailed Explanation of the TradingView Indicator Code**
This **Pine Script v5** indicator automatically **detects trend lines** based on pivot highs and pivot lows. It helps traders visualize **support and resistance levels** using dynamic trend lines.
---
## **🔹 How the Indicator Works**
The indicator identifies **key pivot points** in price action and then **draws trend lines** connecting them. It works as follows:
1. **Detects Pivot Highs and Lows**:
- A **pivot high** is a local maximum where the price is higher than surrounding bars.
- A **pivot low** is a local minimum where the price is lower than surrounding bars.
2. **Stores the Last Two Pivot Points**:
- The script remembers the last **two pivot highs** and **two pivot lows**.
- These points are used to **draw resistance and support lines** dynamically.
3. **Plots Resistance and Support Lines**:
- The script continuously **updates** and **extends** the trend lines to the right as new pivots are found.
- **Red Line (Resistance):** Connects the last two pivot highs.
- **Green Line (Support):** Connects the last two pivot lows.
---
## **🔹 Code Breakdown**
### **1️⃣ Inputs for User Customization**
```pinescript
leftLen = input.int(2, "Left Pivot Length")
rightLen = input.int(2, "Right Pivot Length")
highLineColor = input.color(color.red, "Resistance Line Color")
lowLineColor = input.color(color.green, "Support Line Color")
```
- **leftLen & rightLen:** Define how many bars on the left and right should be used to confirm a pivot.
- **highLineColor:** Sets the color of the resistance trend line (default: **red**).
- **lowLineColor:** Sets the color of the support trend line (default: **green**).
---
### **2️⃣ Detect Pivot Highs & Lows**
```pinescript
pivotHigh = ta.pivothigh(leftLen, rightLen)
pivotLow = ta.pivotlow(leftLen, rightLen)
```
- `ta.pivothigh(leftLen, rightLen)`: Detects a **pivot high** if it's the highest price in a certain range.
- `ta.pivotlow(leftLen, rightLen)`: Detects a **pivot low** if it's the lowest price in a certain range.
---
### **3️⃣ Store the Last Two Pivot Points**
#### **🔺 Storing Resistance (Pivot Highs)**
```pinescript
var float lastPivotHigh1 = na
var int lastPivotHighIndex1 = na
var float lastPivotHigh2 = na
var int lastPivotHighIndex2 = na
```
- These variables store **the last two pivot highs** and their **bar indices** (position on the chart).
#### **🔻 Storing Support (Pivot Lows)**
```pinescript
var float lastPivotLow1 = na
var int lastPivotLowIndex1 = na
var float lastPivotLow2 = na
var int lastPivotLowIndex2 = na
```
- These variables store **the last two pivot lows** and their **bar indices**.
---
### **4️⃣ Update Pivot Points When New Ones Are Found**
#### **Updating Resistance (Pivot Highs)**
```pinescript
if not na(pivotHigh)
lastPivotHigh2 := lastPivotHigh1
lastPivotHighIndex2 := lastPivotHighIndex1
lastPivotHigh1 := pivotHigh
lastPivotHighIndex1 := bar_index - rightLen
```
- If a new **pivot high** is found:
- The **previous pivot** becomes `lastPivotHigh2`.
- The **new pivot** becomes `lastPivotHigh1`.
- The index (`bar_index - rightLen`) marks where the pivot occurred.
#### **Updating Support (Pivot Lows)**
```pinescript
if not na(pivotLow)
lastPivotLow2 := lastPivotLow1
lastPivotLowIndex2 := lastPivotLowIndex1
lastPivotLow1 := pivotLow
lastPivotLowIndex1 := bar_index - rightLen
```
- Similar to pivot highs, this section updates **pivot lows** dynamically.
---
### **5️⃣ Create and Update Trend Lines**
#### **🔺 Drawing the Resistance Line**
```pinescript
var line highLine = na
if not na(lastPivotHigh2) and not na(lastPivotHigh1)
if na(highLine)
highLine := line.new(lastPivotHighIndex2, lastPivotHigh2, lastPivotHighIndex1, lastPivotHigh1, color=highLineColor, extend=extend.right)
else
line.set_xy1(highLine, lastPivotHighIndex2, lastPivotHigh2)
line.set_xy2(highLine, lastPivotHighIndex1, lastPivotHigh1)
line.set_color(highLine, highLineColor)
```
- If **two pivot highs** exist:
- **First time:** Creates a new **resistance line** connecting them.
- **Updates dynamically:** Adjusts the line when a new pivot appears.
#### **🔻 Drawing the Support Line**
```pinescript
var line lowLine = na
if not na(lastPivotLow2) and not na(lastPivotLow1)
if na(lowLine)
lowLine := line.new(lastPivotLowIndex2, lastPivotLow2, lastPivotLowIndex1, lastPivotLow1, color=lowLineColor, extend=extend.right)
else
line.set_xy1(lowLine, lastPivotLowIndex2, lastPivotLow2)
line.set_xy2(lowLine, lastPivotLowIndex1, lastPivotLow1)
line.set_color(lowLine, lowLineColor)
```
- Same logic applies for **support levels**, creating or updating a **green trend line**.
---
## **🔹 How to Use This Indicator**
1. **Apply the script in TradingView**:
- Open **Pine Script Editor** → Paste the code → Click **"Add to Chart"**.
2. **Interpret the Lines**:
- **Red line (Resistance):** Price may struggle to break above it.
- **Green line (Support):** Price may bounce off it.
3. **Trading Strategy**:
- **Breakout Strategy:**
- If the price **breaks resistance**, expect a bullish move.
- If the price **breaks support**, expect a bearish move.
- **Reversal Trading:**

Higher Time Frame Support/Resistance [BigBeluga]The Higher Time Frame Support/Resistance indicator is a tool designed to display pivot points derived from higher timeframes on your current chart. These pivot points are calculated based on the highs and lows of price action in different timeframes, and the indicator draws horizontal lines to represent these levels. These lines act as potential support and resistance zones, giving traders key market levels that may influence future price movement.
Each pivot line is color-coded and labeled with its price value and the timeframe it originates from. This allows traders to clearly differentiate between the significance of the levels based on their timeframe. For example, weekly pivot levels may represent stronger, more long-term support and resistance, while hourly pivots offer more immediate, short-term levels to watch.
🔵 IDEA
The Higher Time Frame Support/Resistance indicator is designed to simplify the process of tracking key support and resistance levels across multiple timeframes. Pivot points, which represent turning points in the market, are essential for identifying areas where price might reverse or break out. By displaying these levels from higher timeframes directly on the current chart, traders can quickly identify and react to critical areas in the market without needing to switch between different timeframe charts.
The indicator labels each pivot point with the specific timeframe it comes from (e.g., 4H, 1D, 1W), making it easy for traders to assess the relative strength of each level. Stronger levels from higher timeframes are likely to act as more significant barriers or support zones, while lower timeframe levels can be used for more precise entries and exits.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
Pivot Levels from Multiple Timeframes:
The indicator calculates pivot highs and lows from various higher timeframes (e.g., 4H, 1D, 1W) and plots these levels on the current chart. These pivot points are represented by horizontal lines that extend across the chart, serving as potential support and resistance zones.
Color-Coded Support and Resistance Lines:
Each pivot level is color-coded based on its timeframe, helping traders quickly differentiate between short-term and long-term support and resistance. This visual aid simplifies the analysis and allows for a clearer understanding of key market levels.
Price Labels and Timeframe Information:
In addition to the pivot lines, the indicator displays labels at each level with the corresponding price and timeframe. For example, a label may show "D Pivot High" followed by the exact price. This helps traders understand the origin and significance of each line, allowing for more informed trading decisions.
Labels up and down mark highs and lows from higher timeframes:
Pivot Shadows for Enhanced Clarity:
The indicator can also draw shadow lines that represent the pivot points but with increased transparency. These shadows allow traders to keep track of previous pivots without cluttering the chart with too many solid lines. The width and transparency of these shadows can be customized in the settings.
🔵 HOW TO USE
🔵 CUSTOMIZATION
Timeframes and Pivot Length: Customize which higher timeframes (e.g., 4H, 1D, 1W) you want to display pivot levels from. Adjust the pivot length to control how sensitive the indicator is in detecting market highs and lows.
Line Style and Colors: Adjust the line style (solid, dashed, dotted) and colors for each timeframe to match your personal preference or chart theme. This customization helps in maintaining a clear and visually appealing chart.
Shadow Line Width and Transparency: Control the width and transparency of the shadow pivot lines to reduce chart clutter while still keeping track of key historical levels.

The data cells have a background color to differ from title cells. You can configure this is a different parameter (iDataColor). You might even set the same color for data as for the titles if you will.
---
Mathematical Background:
Monthly and Weekly Extremums:
The indicator calculates the High (H) and Low (L) of the previous month and week, ensuring accurate representation of these key levels.
Standard Monthly Pivot Point:
The standard pivot point is determined based on the previous month's data using the formula:
PivotPoint = (PrevMonthHigh + PrevMonthLow + Close ) / 3
Monthly Pivot Points (R1, R2, R3, S1, S2, S3):
Additional pivot points are calculated for Resistances (R) and Supports (S) using the monthly data:
R1 = 2 * PivotPoint - PrevMonthLow
S1 = 2 * PivotPoint - PrevMonthHigh
R2 = PivotPoint + (PrevMonthHigh - PrevMonthLow)
S2 = PivotPoint - (PrevMonthHigh - PrevMonthLow)
R3 = PrevMonthHigh + 2 * (PivotPoint - PrevMonthLow)
S3 = PrevMonthLow - 2 * (PrevMonthHigh - PivotPoint)
---
Code Explanation and Interpretation:
The table displayed beneath the chart provides the following information:
Monthly Extremums:
(H) High of the previous month
(L) Low of the previous month
// Function to get the high and low of the previous month
getPrevMonthHighLow() =>
var float prevMonthHigh = na
var float prevMonthLow = na
monthChanged = month(time) != month(time )
if (monthChanged)
prevMonthHigh := high
prevMonthLow := low
Weekly Extremums:
(H) High of the previous week
(L) Low of the previous week
// Function to get the high and low of the previous week
getPrevWeekHighLow() =>
var float prevWeekHigh = na
var float prevWeekLow = na
weekChanged = weekofyear(time) != weekofyear(time )
if (weekChanged)
prevWeekHigh := high
prevWeekLow := low
Monthly Pivots:
Pivot: Standard pivot point based on the previous month's data
// Function to calculate the standard pivot point based on the previous month's data
getStandardPivotPoint() =>
= getPrevMonthHighLow()
pivotPoint = (prevMonthHigh + prevMonthLow + close ) / 3
Resistances:
R3, R2, R1: Monthly resistance levels
// Function to calculate additional pivot points based on the monthly data
getMonthlyPivotPoints() =>
= getPrevMonthHighLow()
pivotPoint = (prevMonthHigh + prevMonthLow + close ) / 3
r1 = (2 * pivotPoint) - prevMonthLow
s1 = (2 * pivotPoint) - prevMonthHigh
r2 = pivotPoint + (prevMonthHigh - prevMonthLow)
s2 = pivotPoint - (prevMonthHigh - prevMonthLow)
r3 = prevMonthHigh + 2 * (pivotPoint - prevMonthLow)
s3 = prevMonthLow - 2 * (prevMonthHigh - pivotPoint)
Initializing and Populating the Table:
The myTable variable initializes the table with a blue background, and subsequent table.cell functions populate the table with headers and data.
// Initialize the table with adjusted bgcolor
var myTable = table.new(position = iPosition, columns = 5, rows = 10, bgcolor = color.new(color.blue, 90), border_width = 1, border_color = color.new(color.blue, 70))
Dynamic Data Population:
Data is dynamically populated in the table using the calculated values for Monthly Extremums, Weekly Extremums, Monthly Pivot Points, Resistances, and Supports.

RSI Trendlines and Divergences█OVERVIEW
The "RSI Trendlines and Divergences" indicator is an advanced technical analysis tool that leverages the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to draw trendlines and detect divergences. Designed for traders seeking precise market signals, the indicator identifies key pivot points on the RSI chart, draws trendlines between pivots, and detects bullish and bearish divergences. It offers flexible settings, background coloring for breakout signals, and divergence labels, supported by alerts for key events. The indicator is universal and works across all markets (stocks, forex, cryptocurrencies) and timeframes.
█CONCEPTS
The indicator was developed to provide an alternative signal source for the RSI oscillator. Trendline breakouts and bounces off trendlines offer a broader perspective on potential price behavior. Combining these with traditional RSI signal interpretation can serve as a foundation for creating various trading strategies.
█FEATURES
- RSI and Pivot Calculation: Calculates RSI based on the selected source price (default: close) with a customizable period (default: 14). Identifies pivot points on RSI and price for trendlines and divergences.
- RSI Trendlines: Draws trendlines connecting RSI pivots (upper for downtrends, lower for uptrends) with optional extension (default: 30 bars). The trendline appears and generates a signal only after the first RSI crossover. Lines are colored (red for upper, green for lower).
- Trendline Fill: Widens the trendline with a tolerance margin expressed in RSI points, reducing signal noise and visually highlighting trend zones. Breaking this zone is a condition for generating signals, minimizing false signals. The tolerance margin can be increased or decreased.
- Divergence Detection: Identifies bullish and bearish divergences based on RSI and price pivots, displaying labels (“Bull” for bullish, “Bear” for bearish) with adjustable transparency. Divergence labels appear with a delay equal to the specified pivot length (default: 5). Higher values yield stronger signals but with greater delay.
- Breakout Signals: Generates signals when RSI crosses the trendline (bullish for upper lines, bearish for lower lines), with background coloring for signal confirmation.
- Alerts: Built-in alerts for:
Detection of bullish and bearish divergences.
Upper trendline crossover (bullish signal).
Lower trendline crossover (bearish signal).
- Customization: Allows adjustment of RSI length, pivot settings, line colors, fills, labels, and transparency of signals and background.
█HOW TO USE
Add the indicator to your TradingView chart via the Pine Editor or Indicators menu.
Configuring Settings.
RSI Settings
- RSI Length: Period for RSI calculation (default: 14).
- SMA Length: Period for RSI moving average (default: 9).

- Divergence Label Transparency: Transparency of labels (0-100, default: 40).
- Signal Background Transparency: Transparency of breakout signal background (0-100, default: 80).
Interpreting Signals
- Trendlines: Upper lines (red) indicate RSI downtrends, lower lines (green) indicate uptrends. The trendline appears and generates a signal only after the first RSI crossover. Trendline breakouts suggest potential trend reversals.
- Divergences: “Bull” labels indicate bullish divergence (potential rise), “Bear” labels indicate bearish divergence (potential decline), with a delay based on pivot length (default: 5). Divergences serve as confirmation or warning of trend reversal, not as standalone signals.
- Signal Background: Green background signals bullish breakouts, red background signals bearish breakouts.
- RSI Levels: Horizontal lines at 70 (overbought), 50 (midline), and 30 (oversold) help assess market zones.
- Alerts: Set up alerts in TradingView for divergences or trendline breakouts.
Combining with Other Tools: Use with support/resistance levels, Fibonacci levels, or other indicators for signal confirmation.
█APPLICATIONS
The "RSI Trendlines and Divergence" indicator is designed to identify trends and potential reversal points, supporting both trend-following and reversal strategies:
- Trend Confirmation: Trendlines indicate the RSI trend direction, with breakouts signaling potential reversals. The indicator is functional in traditional RSI usage, allowing classic RSI interpretation (e.g., returning from overbought/oversold zones). Combining trendline breakouts with RSI signal levels, such as a return from overbought or oversold zones paired with a trendline breakout, strengthens the signal.
- Divergence Detection: Divergences serve as confirmation or warning of trend reversal, not as standalone signals.
█NOTES
- Adjust settings (e.g., RSI length, pivots, tolerance) to suit your trading style and timeframe.

1. INDICATOR OVERVIEW & CORE FUNCTIONALITY
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The LOI indicator combines multiple VWAP calculations with moving averages across different timeframes. It's designed to show where institutional money is flowing and help identify key support and resistance levels that actually matter in today's markets.
Primary Functions:
- Multi-timeframe VWAP analysis (Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Yearly)
- Advanced moving average integration (EMA, SMA, HMA)
- Real-time trend direction detection
- Institutional flow analysis
- Dynamic support/resistance identification
Target Users: Day traders, swing traders, position traders, and institutional analysts seeking comprehensive market structure analysis.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. VWAP FOUNDATION & HISTORICAL CONTEXT
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Historical Development: VWAP started in the 1980s when big institutional traders needed a way to measure if they were getting good fills on their massive orders. Unlike regular price averages, VWAP weighs each price by the volume traded at that level. This makes it incredibly useful because it shows you where most of the real money changed hands.
Mathematical Foundation: The basic math is simple: you take each price, multiply it by the volume at that price, add them all up, then divide by total volume. What you get is the true "average" price that reflects actual trading activity, not just random price movements.
Formula: VWAP = Σ(Price × Volume) / Σ(Volume)
Where typical price = (High + Low + Close) / 3
Institutional Behavior Patterns:
- When price trades above VWAP, institutions often look to sell
- When it's below, they're usually buying
- Creates natural support and resistance that you can actually trade against
- Serves as benchmark for execution quality assessment
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. MULTI-TIMEFRAME VWAP ANALYSIS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Core Innovation: Here's where LOI gets interesting. Instead of just showing daily VWAP like most indicators, it displays four different timeframes simultaneously:
**Daily VWAP Implementation**:
- Resets every morning at market open
- Provides clearest picture of intraday institutional sentiment
- Primary tool for day trading strategies
- Most responsive to immediate market conditions
**Weekly VWAP System**:
- Resets each Monday (or first trading day)
- Smooths out daily noise and volatility
- Perfect for swing trades lasting several days to weeks
- Captures weekly institutional positioning
**Monthly VWAP Analysis**:
- Resets at beginning of each calendar month
- Captures bigger institutional rebalancing at month-end
- Fund managers often operate on monthly mandates
- Significant weight in intermediate-term analysis
**Yearly VWAP Perspective**:
- Resets annually for full-year institutional view
- Shows long-term institutional positioning
- Where pension funds and sovereign wealth funds operate
- Critical for major trend identification
Confluence Zone Theory: The magic happens when multiple VWAP levels cluster together. These confluence zones often become major turning points because different types of institutional money all see value at the same price.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. MOVING AVERAGE INTEGRATION SYSTEM
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Multi-Type Implementation: The indicator includes three types of moving averages, each with its own personality and application:
**Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs)**:
- React quickly to recent price changes
- Displayed as solid lines for easy identification
- Optimal performance in trending market conditions
- Higher sensitivity to current price action
**Simple Moving Averages (SMAs)**:
- Treat all historical data points equally
- Appear as dashed lines in visual display
- Slower response but more reliable in choppy conditions
- Traditional approach favored by institutional traders
**Hull Moving Averages (HMAs)**:
- Newest addition to the system (dotted line display)
- Created by Alan Hull in 2005
- Solves classic moving average dilemma: speed vs. accuracy
- Manages to be both responsive and smooth simultaneously
Technical Innovation: Alan Hull's solution addresses the fundamental problem where moving averages are either too slow (missing moves) or too fast (generating false signals). HMAs achieve optimal balance through weighted calculation methodology.
Period Configuration:
- 5-period: Short-term momentum assessment
- 50-period: Intermediate trend identification
- 200-period: Long-term directional confirmation
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. TREND DIRECTION SIGNAL DETECTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Real-Time Momentum Analysis: One of LOI's best features is its real-time trend detection system. Next to each moving average, visual symbols provide immediate trend assessment:
Symbol System:
- ▲ Rising average (bullish momentum confirmation)
- ▼ Falling average (bearish momentum indication)
- ► Flat average (consolidation or indecision period)
Update Frequency: These signals update in real-time with each new price tick and function across all configured timeframes. Traders can quickly scan daily and weekly trends to assess alignment or conflicting signals.
Multi-Timeframe Trend Analysis:
- Simultaneous daily and weekly trend comparison
- Immediate identification of trend alignment
- Early warning system for potential reversals
- Momentum confirmation for entry decisions
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. VISUAL DESIGN & DISPLAY FEATURES
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Color Psychology Framework: The color scheme isn't random but based on psychological associations and trading conventions:
- **Blue Tones**: Institutional neutrality (VWAP levels)
- **Green Spectrum**: Growth and stability (weekly timeframes)
- **Purple Range**: Longer-term sophistication (monthly analysis)
- **Orange Hues**: Importance and attention (yearly perspective)
- **Red Tones**: User-defined significance (custom levels)
Adaptive Display Technology: The indicator automatically adjusts decimal places based on the instrument you're trading. High-priced stocks show 2 decimals, while penny stocks might show 8. This keeps the display incredibly clean regardless of what you're analyzing - no cluttered charts or overwhelming information overload.
Smart Labeling System: Advanced positioning algorithm automatically spaces all elements to prevent overlap, even during extreme zoom levels or multiple timeframe analysis. Every level stays clearly readable without any visual chaos disrupting your analysis.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. CUSTOM LEVEL INTEGRATION
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
User-Defined Level System: Beyond the calculated VWAP and moving average levels, traders can add custom horizontal lines at any price point for personalized analysis.
Strategic Applications:
- **Psychological Levels**: Round numbers, previous significant highs/lows
- **Technical Levels**: Fibonacci retracements, pivot points
- **Fundamental Targets**: Analyst price targets, earnings estimates
- **Risk Management**: Stop-loss and take-profit zones
Integration Features:
- Seamless incorporation with smart labeling system
- Custom color selection for visual organization
- Extension capabilities across all chart timeframes
- Maintains display clarity with existing indicators
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8. REPAINT PROTECTION TECHNOLOGY
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Critical Trading Feature: This addresses one of the most significant issues in live trading applications. Most multi-timeframe indicators "repaint," meaning they display different signals when viewing historical data versus real-time analysis.
Protection Benefits:
- Ensures every displayed signal could have been traded when it appeared
- Eliminates discrepancies between historical and live analysis
- Provides realistic performance expectations
- Maintains signal integrity across chart refreshes
Configuration Options:
- **Protection Enabled**: Default setting for live trading
- **Protection Disabled**: Available for backtesting analysis
- User-selectable toggle based on analysis requirements
- Applies to all multi-timeframe calculations
Implementation Note: With protection enabled, signals may appear one bar later than without protection, but this ensures all signals represent actionable opportunities that could have been executed in real-time market conditions.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9. PRACTICAL TRADING APPLICATIONS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
**Day Trading Strategy**:
Focus on daily VWAP with 5-period moving averages. Look for bounces off VWAP or breaks through it with volume. Short-term momentum signals provide entry and exit timing.
**Swing Trading Approach**:
Weekly VWAP becomes your primary anchor point, with 50-period averages showing intermediate trends. Position sizing based on weekly VWAP distance.
**Position Trading Method**:
Monthly and yearly VWAP provide broad market context, while 200-period averages confirm long-term directional bias. Suitable for multi-week to multi-month holdings.
**Multi-Timeframe Confluence Strategy**:
The highest-probability setups occur when daily, weekly, and monthly VWAPs cluster together, especially when multiple moving averages confirm the same direction. These represent institutional consensus zones.
Risk Management Integration:
- VWAP levels serve as dynamic stop-loss references
- Multiple timeframe confirmation reduces false signals
- Institutional flow analysis improves position sizing decisions
- Trend direction signals optimize entry and exit timing
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10. SETUP & CONFIGURATION RECOMMENDATIONS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Initial Configuration: Start with default settings and adjust based on individual trading style and market focus. Short-term traders should emphasize daily and weekly timeframes, while longer-term investors benefit from monthly and yearly level analysis.
Transparency Optimization: The transparency settings allow clear price action visibility while maintaining level reference points. Most traders find 70-80% transparency optimal - it provides a clean, unobstructed view of price movement while maintaining all critical reference levels needed for analysis.
Integration Strategy: Remember that no indicator functions effectively in isolation. LOI provides excellent context for institutional flow and trend direction analysis, but should be combined with complementary analysis tools for optimal results.
Performance Considerations:
- Multiple timeframe calculations may impact chart loading speed
- Adjust displayed timeframes based on trading frequency
- Customize color schemes for different market sessions
- Regular review and adjustment of custom levels
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FINAL ANALYSIS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Competitive Advantage: What makes LOI different is its focus on where real money actually trades. By combining volume-weighted calculations with multiple timeframes and trend detection, it cuts through market noise to show you what institutions are really doing.
Key Success Factor: Understanding that different timeframes serve different purposes is essential. Use them together to build a complete picture of market structure, then execute trades accordingly.
The integration of institutional flow analysis with technical trend detection creates a comprehensive trading tool that addresses both short-term tactical decisions and longer-term strategic positioning.

Fractal Breakout Trend Following System█ OVERVIEW
The Fractal Breakout Trend Following System is a custom technical analysis tool designed to pinpoint significant fractal pivot points and breakout levels. By analyzing price action through configurable pivot parameters, this indicator dynamically identifies key support and resistance zones. It not only marks crucial highs and lows on the chart but also signals potential trend reversals through real-time breakout detections, helping traders capture shifts in market momentum.
█ KEY FEATURES
Fractal Pivot Detection
Utilizes user-defined left and right pivot lengths to detect local highs (pivot highs) and lows (pivot lows). This fractal-based approach ensures that only meaningful price moves are considered, effectively filtering out minor market noise.
Dynamic Line Visualization
Upon confirmation of a pivot, the system draws a dynamic line representing resistance (from pivot highs) or support (from pivot lows). These lines extend across the chart until a breakout occurs, offering a continuous visual guide to key levels.
Trend Breakout Signals
Monitors for price crossovers relative to the drawn pivot lines. A crossover above a resistance line signals a bullish breakout, while a crossunder below a support line indicates a bearish move, thus updating the prevailing trend.
Pivot Labelling
Assigns labels such as "HH", "LH", "LL", or "HL" to detected pivots based on their relative values.
It uses the following designations:
HH (Higher High) : Indicates that the current pivot high is greater than the previous pivot high, suggesting continued upward momentum.
LH (Lower High) : Signals that the current pivot high is lower than the previous pivot high, which may hint at a potential reversal within an uptrend.
LL (Lower Low) : Shows that the current pivot low is lower than the previous pivot low, confirming sustained downward pressure.
HL (Higher Low) : Reveals that the current pivot low is higher than the previous pivot low, potentially indicating the beginning of an upward reversal in a downtrend.
These labels provide traders with immediate insight into the market structure and recent price behavior.
Customizable Visual Settings

█ UNDERLYING METHODOLOGY & CALCULATIONS
Fractal Pivot Calculation
The script employs a sliding window technique using configurable left and right parameters to identify local highs and lows. Detected pivot values are sanitized to ensure consistency in subsequent calculations.
Dynamic Line Plotting
When a new pivot is detected, a corresponding line is drawn from the pivot point. This line extends until the price breaks the level, at which point it is reset. This method provides a continuous reference for support and resistance.
Trend Breakout Identification
By continuously monitoring price interactions with the pivot lines, the indicator identifies breakouts. A price crossover above a resistance line suggests a bullish breakout, while a crossunder below a support line indicates a bearish shift. The current trend is updated accordingly.
Pivot Label Assignment
The system compares the current pivot with the previous one to determine if the move represents a higher high, lower high, higher low, or lower low. This classification helps traders understand the underlying market momentum.

Breakout and Retest Signals [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script detects breakout and retest signals by identifying key pivot points in price action and analyzing their relationship with historical swing highs and lows. It highlights breakout structures using ATR-based tolerance levels and volume analysis to confirm potential trend continuations or reversals. The script marks significant price levels with dynamic boxes and dashed lines to help traders visualize breakout and retest areas effectively.
CONCEPTS
The script relies on pivot point analysis, a technique used to identify significant price levels where the market has previously reversed. It dynamically tracks a set number of recent swing highs and lows, allowing traders to see if the price is revisiting a previously significant level. The concept of breakouts and retests is widely used in technical analysis to determine potential entry points. A breakout occurs when the price moves beyond a resistance or support level, and a retest happens when the price returns to test that level before continuing in the breakout direction. This script enhances that analysis by incorporating ATR-based tolerance levels, ensuring that price zones are not too large.
FEATURES
Breakout and Retest Markings : Highlights breakout and retest areas with shaded boxes, allowing traders to visualize where price action is confirming key levels.
Volume Delta and Ratio : Analyzes volume at breakout levels to gauge the strength of the move, displaying volume delta information for additional context. The script also displays the ratio of selling to buying at the retest along traders to make better judgement on their entries.
Multi-Timeframe Adaptability : Dynamically adjusts volume analysis to align with the appropriate lower timeframe, ensuring reliable volume comparisons.
Alerts for Breakout and Retest Events : Traders can receive real-time notifications when bullish or bearish breakout retests are detected.
USAGE
This script is best suited for traders looking to identify strong breakout and retest setups across different timeframes. Users can customize the pivot detection period and swing point memory to adjust sensitivity based on their trading style. The ATR length and multiplier allow further refinement of breakout tolerance, reducing noise in volatile markets. The breakout zones are displayed as shaded boxes, where traders can assess whether a price retest is occurring under favorable conditions. Alerts can be set to notify traders of potential trade opportunities.
Dual Zigzag [Trendoscope®]🎲 Dual Zigzag indicator is built on recursive zigzag algorithm. It is very similar to other zigzag indicators published by us and other authors. However, the key point here is, the indicator draws zigzag on both price and any other plot based indicator on separate layouts.
Before we get into the indicator, here are some brief descriptions of the underlying concepts and key terminologies
🎯 Zigzag
Zigzag indicator breaks down price or any input series into a series of Pivot Highs and Pivot Lows alternating between each other. Zigzags though shows pivot high and lows, should not be used for buying at low and selling at high. The main application of zigzag indicator is for the visualisation of market structure and this can be used as basic building block for any pattern recognition algorithms.
🎯 Recursive Zigzag Algorithm
Recursive zigzag algorithm builds zigzag on multiple levels and each level of zigzag is based on the previous level pivots. The level zero zigzag is built on price. However, for level 1, instead of price level 0 zigzag pivots are used. Similarly for level 2, level 1 zigzag pivots are used as base.
🎲 Components Dual Zigzag Indicator
Here are the components of Dual zigzag indicator
Built in Oscillator - Indicator has built in oscillator options for plotting RSI (Relative Strength Index), MFI (Money Flow Index), cci (Commodity Channel Index) , CMO (Chande Momentum Oscillator), COG (Center of Gravity), and ROC (Rate of Change). Apart from the given built in oscillators, users can also use a custom external output as base. The oscillators are not printed on the price pane. But, printed on a separate indicator overlay.
Zigzag On Oscillator - Recursive zigzag is calculated and printed on the oscillator series. Each pivot high and pivot low also prints a label having the retracement ratios, and price levels at those points. Zigzag on the oscillator is also printed on the indicator overlay pane.
Zigzag on Price - Recursive zigzag calculated based on price and printed on the price pane. This is made possible by using force_overlay option present in the drawing objects. At each zigzag pivot levels, the label having price retracement ratios, and oscillator values are printed.
It is called dual zigzag because, the indicator calculates the zigzag on both price and oscillator series of values and prints them separately on different panes on the chart.
🎲 Indicator Settings
Settings include
Theme display settings to get the right colour combination to match the background.
Zigzag settings to be used for zigzag calculation and display
Oscillator settings to chose the oscillator to be used as base for 2nd zigzag
🎲 Applications
Useful in spotting divergences with both indicator and price having their own zigzag to highlight pivots
Spotting patterns in indicators/oscillators and correlate them with the patterns on price
🎲 Using External Input
If users want to use an external indicator such as OBV instead of the built in oscillators, then can do so by using the custom option.
Here is how this can be done.
Step1. Add both Dual Zigzag and the intended indicator (in this case OBV) on the chart. Notice that both OBV and Dual zigzag appear on different panes.
Step2. Edit the indicator settings of Dual zigzag and set custom indicator by selecting "custom" as oscillator name and then by setting the custom external indicator name and input.
Step 3. You would notice that the zigzag in Dual Zigzag indictor pane is already showing the zigzag pivots based on the OBV indicator and the price pivots display obv values at the pivot points. We can leave this as is.
Step 4. As an additional step, you can also merge the OBV pane and the Dual zigzag indicator pane into one by going into OBV settings and moving the indicator to above pane. Merge the scales so that there is no two scales on the same pane and the entire scale appear on the right.
At the end, you should see two panes - one with price and other with OBV and both having their zigzag plotted.

[DarkTrader] Pivot Point HeatmapThe indicator calculates pivot points using price data from different timeframes such as 12M, 1M, 1W, 3D, and 1D. For each timeframe, it retrieves the high, low, open, and close prices of the previous bar. The pivot point is calculated as the average of the high, low, and close prices, which provides a central level where market sentiment may shift. This calculation is repeated for each timeframe, ensuring a multi-dimensional view of potential interest zones.
Importance of Pivot Points :
Pivot points are essential tools in technical analysis, providing traders with levels that act as potential support and resistance zones. These zones help identify price levels where reversals or breakouts are more likely to occur.
Visual Representation :
The core feature of this indicator is its ability to visualize pivot points as a heatmap on the chart. Instead of showing just the latest pivot points, it tracks the historical pivot swipe, providing a dynamic view of how price interacts with these key levels. Each pivot point is represented by a line, color-coded based on its position relative to other points, creating a gradient effect that highlights the most critical price areas.
Customization Options :
Traders can customize various aspects of the heatmap to suit their preferences. The indicator offers options to toggle pivot swipe history, enabling traders to either focus on the most recent price interactions or consider how price has behaved over time. The background color and pivot line colors are fully customizable, making it easy to match the heatmap with your chart's theme or emphasize certain price levels.
Detecting Sweeps and Price Interaction :
Another important feature is the detection of price interactions with pivot levels. If the current bar's high and low cross a pivot point, it signals that the pivot level has been "swept" by price action, potentially indicating a change in market sentiment. The indicator either extends the line if the pivot point remains relevant or deletes it if price has broken through. This dynamic adjustment helps traders stay updated on which pivot levels are still valid.
[UST] Protein+Support/Resistance Script: A Comprehensive Overview
Thanks to Pmgjiv for providing the foundation to this improved Version.
In the world of trading, having a robust support and resistance analysis tool can make a significant difference in decision-making and overall strategy. Let's delve into the enhancements made to the support/resistance script and how each component contributes to a trader's arsenal:
Changes and improvements made for the script to help Traders make better rational decisions in their Trading:
1. Multiple Timeframes:
Integrating multiple timeframes into the analysis provides a multi-dimensional view of the market. Traders can now assess price action across different time horizons simultaneously. This feature allows for a deeper understanding of market dynamics and helps in identifying significant support and resistance levels across various timeframes.
2. Timeframe Labels Inside Zones:
By including timeframe labels within the zones, traders can easily identify the origin of each support or resistance level. This contextual information enhances clarity and facilitates more informed decision-making, especially when navigating through multiple timeframes.
3. Visual Zone Update:
Visual updates on zones enable traders to track changes in support and resistance levels in real-time. This dynamic feature enhances the analytical process by providing immediate insights into evolving market conditions, thereby enabling traders to adapt their strategies accordingly.
4. Zones Hit:
Understanding the frequency and intensity of zone hits offers valuable insights into the strength and relevance of support and resistance levels. Traders can gauge the significance of each zone based on its historical interaction with price, thereby gaining a deeper understanding of market sentiment and potential trading opportunities.
5. Option to Turn off Current Timeframe:
The ability to toggle off the current timeframe streamlines chart analysis by focusing only on the most critical support and resistance zones. This decluttering feature helps traders prioritize key levels, reducing cognitive overload and enhancing decision-making efficiency.
Explanation of Additional Functions:
a. Lookback:
The 'lookback' parameter allows traders to customize the age of support and resistance zones based on their trading style and preferences. By adjusting the lookback setting, traders can choose whether to prioritize recent price action or consider historical data, thus tailoring the analysis to their specific trading strategies.
b. Swinglength:
Swinglength determines the sensitivity of the support and resistance zones. By modifying this parameter, traders can control how aggressively the script identifies pivot points. A higher swinglength value results in smoother, more stable zones, whereas a lower value increases sensitivity, capturing smaller price movements.
c. ZigZag Indicator:
The ZigZag indicator plays a pivotal role in identifying significant price reversals. Its period setting determines the number of price bars considered before confirming a pivot point. Traders can utilize this indicator to identify key turning points in the market, aiding in the identification of robust support and resistance levels.
Impact of Sensitivity on Zones:
Adjusting the sensitivity of the ZigZag indicator directly influences the identification and delineation of support and resistance zones. Higher sensitivity levels result in fewer but more robust zones, capturing significant price movements. Conversely, lower sensitivity levels yield more zones, accommodating smaller price fluctuations but potentially introducing noise into the analysis.
d. S/R Range:
The ability to adjust the width of support and resistance zones allows traders to customize the breadth of key areas on a chart. Choosing a wider range encompasses a broader spectrum of prices, thereby identifying more comprehensive support and resistance levels. This flexibility enables traders to adapt their analysis to different market conditions and trading strategies.
Utilization in Trading:
Comprehensive Analysis: By incorporating multiple timeframes, traders gain a holistic view of market dynamics, enabling them to identify high-probability trading opportunities across various horizons.

Customized Analysis: Adjustable parameters such as lookback, swinglength, and sensitivity empower traders to tailor the analysis to their individual trading styles and preferences, enhancing precision and effectiveness.
In summary, these enhancements to the support/resistance script provide traders with a powerful toolkit for analyzing market dynamics, identifying key levels, and executing well-informed trading strategies across various timeframes and market conditions.
Fibonacci Archer Box [ChartPrime]Fibonacci Archer Box (ChartPrime) is a full featured Fibonacci box indicator that automatically plots based on pivot points. This indicator plots retracement levels, time lines, fan lines, and angles. Each one of these features are fully customizable with the ability to disable individual features. A unique aspect to this implementation is the ability to set targets based on retracement levels and time zones. This is set to 0.618 by default but you can pick any Fibonacci zone you like. Also included are markings that show you when Fibonacci levels are met or exceeded. These moments are plotted on the chart as colored dots that can be enabled or disabled. Along with these markings are crosses that can be shown when targets are hit. Both of these markings are colored with the related Fibonacci level colors.
When there is a zig-zag, this indicator will test to see if the zig-zag meets the criteria set up by the user before plotting a new Fibonacci box. You can pick from either higher highs or lower highs for bearish patterns, and higher lows or lower lows for bullish patterns. Both patterns can be set to use both when finding new boxes if you want to make it more sensitive. You also have the option to filter based on minimum and maximum size. If the box isn't within the selected size range, it will simply be ignored. The pivot levels can be configured to use either candle wicks or candle bodies. By default this is configured to use candle wick with a lookforward of 5 and lookback of 10.
We have included alerts for Fibonacci level crosses, Fibonacci time crosses, and target hits. All alerts are found in the add alert section built into tradingview to make alert creation as easy as possible. Each alert is labeled with their correct names to make navigation simple.
W.D. Gann, a renowned figure in the world of trading and market analysis, is often questioned for his use of Fibonacci levels in his strategies. However, evidence points to the fact that Gann did not directly employ Fibonacci price levels in his work. Instead, Gann had his unique approach, dividing price ranges into thirds, eighths, and other fractions, which, although somewhat aligning with Fibonacci levels, are not exact matches. It is clear that Gann was familiar with Fibonacci and the golden ratio, as references to them appear in his recommended reading list and some of his writings. Despite this awareness, Gann chose not to incorporate Fibonacci levels explicitly in his methodologies, preferring instead to use his divisions of price and time. Notably, Gann's emphasis on the 50% level—a marker not associated with Fibonacci numbers—further illustrates his departure from Fibonacci usage. This level, despite its popularity among some Fibonacci enthusiasts, does not stem from Fibonacci's sequence. This is why we opted to call this indicator Fibonacci Archer Box instead of a Gann Box as we didn't feel like it was appropriate.
In summary, the Fibonacci Archer Box (ChartPrime) is a tool that incorporates Fibonacci retracements and projections with an automated pivot point-based plotting system. It allows for customization across various features including retracement levels, timelines, fan lines, and angles, and integrates visual cues for level crosses and target hits. While it acknowledges the methodologies of W.D. Gann, it distinctively utilizes Fibonacci techniques, providing a straightforward tool for market analysis. We hope you enjoy using this indicator as much as we enjoyed making it!
Enjoy
