Market Structure HH, HL, LH and LLMarket Structure Indicator (HH, HL, LH, LL) – Explanation and Usage
Overview:
This indicator is designed to detect and visualize market structure shifts by identifying Higher Highs (HH), Higher Lows (HL), Lower Highs (LH), and Lower Lows (LL). It plots a ZigZag structure to mark trend changes, helping traders analyze price swings and market direction.
Indicator Logic:
The indicator operates based on ZigZag swing points to define trend shifts and structure changes.
Identifying Market Swings:
It finds local highs and lows using the ZigZag Length (zigzag_len), which defines how many bars back to check for a new swing high/low.
If the current high is the highest over zigzag_len periods, it marks it as a swing high.
If the current low is the lowest over zigzag_len periods, it marks it as a swing low.
Determining Market Structure:
Uptrend: Higher Highs (HH) & Higher Lows (HL)
Downtrend: Lower Lows (LL) & Lower Highs (LH)
The script continuously tracks the last two highs (h0, h1) and last two lows (l0, l1) to classify the current market structure.
Visual Elements:
ZigZag Line (Optional): Connects major swing highs and lows for trend visualization.
Labels (HH, HL, LH, LL):
HH (Higher High) – Price is making new highs → Uptrend Continuation.
HL (Higher Low) – Price forms a higher bottom → Uptrend Confirmation.
LL (Lower Low) – Price is making new lows → Downtrend Continuation.
LH (Lower High) – Price forms a lower top → Downtrend Confirmation.
Breakout Confirmation with Fibonacci Factor (Optional)
The indicator includes an option to confirm breakouts using the fib_factor, which ensures price moves beyond a certain retracement level.
How to Use This Indicator in Trading:
1. Identifying Trends & Trend Reversals
Uptrend: Look for a sequence of HH and HL.
Downtrend: Look for a sequence of LL and LH.
Trend Reversal: If price transitions from HH-HL to LH-LL, it signals a shift from an uptrend to a downtrend (and vice versa).
2. Confirming Entry & Exit Points
Buy Entry (Long Position)
Enter after a Higher Low (HL) is confirmed in an uptrend.
Combine with support zones or moving averages for confirmation.
Sell Entry (Short Position)
Enter after a Lower High (LH) is confirmed in a downtrend.
Combine with resistance zones or moving averages for confirmation.
Exit Strategy
Exit long trades when price fails to make a HH and forms an LH instead.
Exit short trades when price fails to make a LL and forms an HL instead.
3. Spotting Breakouts & Order Blocks
The Fib Factor setting allows traders to filter false breakouts by confirming price movement beyond a retracement threshold.
Potential Order Blocks can be identified by looking at the last major swing point before a breakout.

Shift
Shifted Symbol Overlay with OffsetThe Shifted Symbol Overlay Indicator is a custom TradingView indicator designed to overlay the price data of one stock or asset over another, allowing for direct visual comparison. This is particularly useful for comparing the performance of two assets over different time periods. The indicator enables you to shift the data from one asset either forward or backward in time, making it easier to compare historical data from one stock with more recent data from another. The indicator supports shifting both to the right (future periods) and to the left (earlier periods), helping traders and analysts explore correlations or divergences between two financial instruments.
The indicator also includes a normalization option that adjusts the scale of the two assets, so you can compare them even if they have vastly different price levels. This is useful when you're interested in relative performance rather than the absolute price values.
MultiType Shifting Predictive Moving Averages (MA) CrossoverJust 2 Moving Averages with adjustable settings and shifting capability, plus signals and predicting continuations.
At the time of publish these different types of MAs are supported:
- SMA (Simple)
- EMA (Exponential)
- DEMA (Double Exponential)
- TEMA (Triple Exponential)
- RMA (Adjusted Exponential)
- WMA (Weighted)
- VWMA (Volume Weighted)
- SWMA (Symmetrically Weighted)
- HMA (Hull)
I'm looking forward to any idea about filtering the signals. Thanks.
MultiTimeFrame Shifting Predictive Bollinger BandsThis is the optimized version of my MTFSBB indicator with capability of possible bands prediction in case of negative shifting (to the left).
Make me happy by using it and sending me your ideas about the prediction.
MTF Shifting BBs + Reverse Engineering RSIs Overlay on ChartAnother multi-timeframe indicator presents 3 MTF (each) Bollinger Bands and 3 MTF (each) Reverse Engineering RSI and of course with shifting (left/right) capability.
RERSI in a simple term is the RSI but on the main chart alongside with candles.
There are many adjustable options like:
- Show/Hide each BB
- Show/Hide each MA
- Non-integer BB deviation values
- Positive/Negative shifting values
- Show/Hide each RSI
- Show/Hide each RSI Mid Level
- Adjustable Overbought, Oversold and Mid Levels values
I wrote this after my first script MTFSBB, because it's very useful to have BBs and RSIs together on a chart.
Calculating RERSIs will take some time, so be patient with it and feel free to use it.
MultiTimeFrame Shifting Bollinger BandsJust 3 Bollinger Bands with different adjustable timeframes plus shifting (left/right) capability and non-integer deviation values.
I wrote this because I couldn't find the perfect BB indicator that matches my needs. Feel free to use it.
