TrendLine Toolkit w/ Breaks (Real-Time)The TrendLine Toolkit script introduces an innovating capability by extending the conventional use of trendlines beyond price action to include oscillators and other technical indicators. This tool allows traders to automatically detect and display trendlines on any TradingView built-in oscillator or community-built script, offering a versatile approach to trend analysis. With breakout detection and real-time alerts, this script enhances the way traders interpret trends in various indicators.
🔲 Methodology
Trendlines are a fundamental tool in technical analysis used to identify and visualize the direction and strength of a price trend. They are drawn by connecting two or more significant points on a price chart, typically the highs or lows of consecutive price movements (pivots).
Drawing Trendlines:
Uptrend Line - Connects a series of higher lows. It signals an upward price trend.
Downtrend Line - Connects a series of lower highs. It indicates a downward price trend.
Support and Resistance:
Support Line - A trendline drawn under rising prices, indicating a level where buying interest is historically strong.
Resistance Line - A trendline drawn above falling prices, showing a level where selling interest historically prevails.
Identification of Trends:
Uptrend - Prices making higher highs and higher lows.
Downtrend - Prices making lower highs and lower lows.
Sideways (or Range-bound) - Prices moving within a horizontal range.
A trendline helps confirm the existence and direction of a trend, providing guidance in aligning with the prevailing market sentiment. Additionally, they are usually paired with breakout analysis, a breakout occurs when the price breaches a trendline. This signals a potential change in trend direction or an acceleration of the existing trend.
The script adapts this methodology to oscillators and other indicators. Instead of relying on price pivots, which can only be detected in retrospect, the script utilizes a trailing stop on the oscillator to identify potential swings in real-time, you may find more info about it here (SuperTrend toolkit) . We detect swings or pivots simply by testing for crosses between the indicator and its trailing stop.
type oscillator
float o = Oscillator Value
float s = Trailing Stop Value
oscillator osc = oscillator.new()
bool l = ta.crossunder(osc.o, osc.s) => Utilized as a formed high
bool h = ta.crossover (osc.o, osc.s) => Utilized as a formed low
This approach enables the algorithm to detect trendlines between consecutive pivot highs or lows on the oscillator itself, providing a dynamic and immediate representation of trend dynamics.
🔲 Breakout Detection
The script goes beyond trendline creation by incorporating breakout detection directly within the oscillator. After identifying a trendline, the algorithm continuously monitors the oscillator for potential breakouts, signaling shifts in market sentiment.
🔲 Setup Guide
A simple example on one of my public scripts, Z-Score Heikin-Ashi Transformed
🔲 Settings
Source - Choose an oscillator source of which to base the Toolkit on.
Zeroing - The Mid-Line value of the oscillator, for example RSI & MFI use 50.

Flow of Trade [Orderflowing]Flow of Trade | Supply & Demand Zones | Turtle Soup Reversal Pattern Detection (+)
Built using Pine Script V5.
Introduction
The Flow of Trade indicator is a trading tool designed to leverage the principles of Supply and Demand, along with automatic “Turtle Soup” reversal pattern detection.
This indicator is made for traders who aim to identify potential market reversal points, supported by multi-timeframe analysis for a more complete market overview.
Core Concepts and Innovation
Supply and Demand (S&D) Zones
At the heart of the Flow of Trade indicator is the concept of Supply & Demand, along with Market Imbalance, which is sound for identifying the Supply and Demand zones.
The Turtle Soup Reversal Pattern Detection
Named after the ICT-derived trading pattern, the Flow of Trade script tries to find and plot these "failed breakout" reversals based on the user input configuration.
Inputs
The Flow of Trade indicator offers customization, allowing traders to fit the tool to their specific analysis needs and trading style.
Zone Ratio: Determines the scale of imbalance required for a candle to be considered for a zone. A higher value indicates a need for a more significant imbalance, making zones less frequent but potentially more reliable.
Zone Extension: Specifies how far to the right of the latest bar the zones should extend, providing a visual projection of potential future support and resistance areas.
Display LTF Zones: Enables the visualization of zones from lower timeframes on the current chart, offering a multi-timeframe perspective on supply and demand areas.
Supply and Demand Zone Colors: Customize the colors for supply (red) and demand (blue) zones, including opacity for chart visibility.
Border Color: Adjust the border color to find a suitable view of the zones. Optionally disable the S&D colors with 0% opacity and only keep border colors for a border-only view.
Text Display Settings: Options to display high/low quotes information within zones.
Timeframe Options: Select which timeframes to include in the analysis, from shorter periods like 30M to longer ones like Daily (D) or Weekly (W), allowing for a complete view across different timeframes.
How It Works
Imbalance Calculation.
The indicator looks at consecutive candles to measure the magnitude of price movement and volume imbalances.
A significant imbalance between buying and selling pressure is what defines a potential supply or demand zone.
Supply Zones Identification.
A supply zone is flagged when there's imbalance favoring sellers, typically after a notable price drop. It looks for a consolidation phase where the price fails to achieve a higher high, suggesting an area where sellers might regain control.
Demand Zones Identification.
A demand zone is marked in the presence of a buyer-dominated imbalance, especially after a significant price rally.
The indicator seeks periods of consolidation where the price doesn't make a lower low, indicating potential buyer accumulation.
Multi-Timeframe Imbalance Analysis.
The indicator extends its imbalance analysis across multiple timeframes of identified zones.
This multi-layered approach allows traders to discern the strength and relevance of supply and demand zones within a broader multi-timeframe market context.
Turtle Soup Reversal Pattern Detection.
The Turtle Soup pattern detection is fitted into the imbalance analysis.
The indicator scans for setups within or near the identified supply and demand zones, providing an additional layer of confirmation for potential reversals.
The Turtle Soup Pattern Logic
Attempts at detecting false breakouts within the zones. For example, a bearish Turtle Soup pattern emerges when the price dips below a demand zone but quickly reverses, indicating a failed breakout and potential upward momentum.
Integration and Practical Application
The Flow of Trade indicator integrates these elements, marking out S&D zones while also scanning for reversal patterns within or adjacent to these zones.
The added multi-timeframe analysis can help the traders understanding of broader market context, enabling you to find the relative strength of MTF zones and see how reversal setups perform in the specific asset.
Strategic Entry and Exit Points: Use the confluence of S&D zones and Turtle Soup patterns to find possible entry and exit points.
Risk Management: Potentially leverage the defined zones for setting stop-loss levels and managing trade risk based on supply and demand concepts.
Confirmation and Confluence: Apply multi-timeframe analysis to validate S&D zones and Turtle Soup patterns.
Example of High/Low (H/L) Quotes from Zones:
Example of MTF S&D Zones (4H/D/W):
Conclusion
The Flow of Trade indicator is of time-tested market principles and along with innovative pattern recognition, designed to offer traders a customizable method for more systematized view of supply and demand, along with reversal signals.
Its multi-timeframe analysis can be useful for decision-making and systemizing your trading layout.
Disclaimer
While the Flow of Trade Indicator is a useful tool for analysis, it is important for traders to remember that no single tool can guarantee success.
Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Do not solely rely on the signals from the Flow of Trade indicator.
The indicator is meant to be used as confluence to an existing strategy.
Pivot Points + Day First Candle Breakout + VWAP + Supertrend This indicator amalgamates several key indicators to provide a comprehensive analysis for trading decisions, including SuperTrend, Pivot Points, VWAP, along with the Day First Candle Breakout strategy.
Key Features:
Day First Candle Breakout: Identifies potential breakout opportunities based on the first candle of the trading day. It utilizes the high and low of the initial trading range to determine entry points.
Timeframe Selection: Allows users to select the timeframe for analyzing the first candle (e.g., 5, 15, or 60 minutes).
Previous Day and Week High/Low: Displays the high and low of the previous day and week to provide additional context for trading decisions and assess the strength of the trend.
Trend Strength Analysis: Indicates whether the current price is above or below the previous day's high or low, signaling a stronger bullish or bearish trend respectively.
SuperTrend Indicator: Visualizes the trend direction and potential reversal points based on the SuperTrend indicator. It helps traders to stay aligned with the prevailing trend and avoid premature exits.
Pivot Points: Presents key support and resistance levels derived from Pivot Points, assisting traders in identifying potential reversal or breakout zones.
VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price): Plots VWAP to provide insight into the average price traded over a given period, aiding in determining the fair value of the asset and potential buying/selling zones.
Trading Signals:
Buy Signal: Triggered when the price exceeds the high of the initial trading range after an upward price gap.
Sell Signal: Generated when the price falls below the low of the initial trading range after a downward price gap.
Caveats for Effective Trading:
Extended Trading Ranges: Adjusts support and resistance levels if the initial trading range extends beyond the defined timeframe.
Morning Noise Consideration: Exercises caution during volatile morning sessions to avoid false breakouts and whipsaws.
Pullbacks and Narrow Range Bars: Looks for opportunities during pullbacks or when the price forms narrow range bars to enter trades, reducing the risk of sudden reversals.
Day First Candle BreakoutR-DFCB V1.5: Day First Candle Breakout
This indicator identifies potential breakout opportunities based on the first candle of the trading day. It considers the high and low of the initial trading range to determine possible entry points, along with the previous day's high and low to gauge the strength of the trend.
Key Features:
Day First Candle Breakout: Analyzes the first candle of the trading day to identify potential breakout scenarios.
Timeframe Selection: Allows users to select the timeframe for analyzing the first candle (e.g., 5, 15, or 60 minutes).
Previous Day and Week High/Low: Displays the high and low of the previous day and week to provide additional context for trading decisions.
Previous Day Trend Strength: Indicates whether the current price is above or below the previous day's high or low, signaling a stronger bullish or bearish trend respectively.
Trading Signals:
Buy Signal: Triggered when the price exceeds the high of the initial trading range after an upward price gap.
Sell Signal: Generated when the price falls below the low of the initial trading range after a downward price gap.
Trend Strength Analysis:
Strong Bullish Trend: If the current price is above the previous day's high, it indicates a stronger bullish trend.
Strong Bearish Trend: If the current price is below the previous day's low, it suggests a stronger bearish trend.
Caveats for Effective Trading:
Extended Trading Ranges: Adjusts support and resistance levels if the initial trading range extends beyond the defined timeframe.
Morning Noise Consideration: Exercises caution during volatile morning sessions to avoid false breakouts and whipsaws.
Pullbacks and Narrow Range Bars: Looks for opportunities during pullbacks or when the price forms narrow range bars to enter trades, reducing the risk of sudden reversals.
VWAP SpiderThe VWAP Spider indicator enhances the conventional Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) analysis by anchoring it to the first candle and incorporating an extensive series of standard deviation (SD) lines, extending up to +8 SDs with additional half-step increments. This configuration provides a more suitable set of lines for identifying support and resistance, distinguishing it from existing VWAP and SD indicators. Its design, featuring color gradients for fills and distinct labels for each line, aims to improve the utility and user experience.
Optimal Timeframes:
It is recommended for use on weekly or monthly resolutions to ensure all price and volume history is included.
Distinctive Features:
The indicator includes a more extensive array of SD lines than typically found in VWAP indicators, enhancing the depth of market analysis.
The visual presentation is optimized with color gradients and clear labeling, facilitating ease of use and integration into trading strategies.
Practical Use of the VWAP Spider:
SD Lines as Support and Resistance : Observe the interactions between the price and the SD lines closely. These can serve as dynamic support and resistance indicators, influencing trading decisions.
Analyzing Historical Price Action : Investigate how the price has historically interacted with the SD lines. Identify which lines have frequently acted as support and resistance in the past, as they will often continue to be revisited.
Strategic Application : Leverage insights from the interactions between price and SD lines to fine-tune entry and exit points. For example, a rebound from an SD line may suggest a strong entry point, while breaching an SD line could indicate a potential exit.
This indicator is freely available and open-source on TradingView for all. It is designed to help traders enhance their market analysis and strategic decision-making.
ka66: Swing/Pivot Point LinesThis indicator draws swing-highs and swing-lows, also called pivot highs and lows.
A swing high is a bar which has a higher-high than its surrounding bars (to the left and the right).
A swing low is a bar which has a lower-low than its surrounding bars (to the left and the right).
A common example of a pivot is Bill Williams' Fractal, which specifies that the centre bar must have a higher high than 2 bars to its left, and 2 bars to its right for a swing high, taking into account 5 bars at a time. Similarly, for a swing low, the centre bar must have a lower low than the 2 bars to its left and right.
This indicator allows configurable adjacent bars as input. Entering 2, means it essentially picks out a Williams Fractal. But you can select 1 (say for higher timeframes), using one 1 bar to the left and right of the centre bar.
The indicator will draw Swing/Pivot High/Low as circles at the same price level as the centre bar, till the next one shows up. Drawing is offset so it starts at the centre bar (the swing bar), showing exactly where the pivot bar is.
There are 2 main uses of pivot points, in various strategies:
Market Structure: to objectively define higher-highs/lows and lower-highs/lows in Trend Analysis.
More generally, to then determine if a trend might reverse, or continue as pivot levels are broken.
Messy pivot structures easily point out ranging markets.
There are a few of these, some closed source, which I don't like, since I think people should generally know what they are trading with, and I want to make sure I understand the logic exactly.
Market Structure (Range) & Internal Liquidity
This indicator will simplify the price-action reading of any trader/investor by decluttering his/her charts from un-important & confusing candles to highlight the true momentum candles which are usually formed by institutional buying/selling .
The indicator will be a good tool in the arsenal of the following styles of Trading/Investing
Smart Money / Liquidity Concepts
Price Action Concepts
Demand & Supply Concepts
Support & Resistance Concepts
UNIQUE FEATURES:
1. Market Structure - Range & Internal Liquidity:
Unlike other liquidity indicators, this indicator only highlights liquidity levels of significant importance. Not every intermediate high & low in a chart are worthy of noticing, hence by enabling the 'Swings' & 'Range (BoS)' feature in the indicator settings, the structure highs and lows (external liquidity) in a chart can be identified.
Any other liquidity levels within a market range (Range between structural High & Low) is known as internal liquidity which price targets to collect enough orders before heading towards the external liquidity levels.
2. Gaps (Fair Value Gaps / Imbalance):
Not every imbalance / gap between candles are important & trade-worthy. This feature of the indicator is different from the other widely available imbalance indicators & only highlights gaps formed by true momentum candles. Gaps between unimportant inside bars are not highlighted, as these bars occur in the absence of momentum.
3. True Price Action:
Looking at the two charts below, we can clearly observe the difference between price action of a confusing normal chart & the simplified price action highlighted by the indicator. This feature declutters the charts by only highlighting the candles a trader / investor should notice in a chart.
This feature when used in confluence with the liquidity levels feature & gap feature of the indicator, helps identify the true demand & supply zones (order blocks) in a chart.
Before
After
4. Zig Zag Lines:
This unique feature which is useful to Identify & Backtest different entry types taught by Smart Money Traders . This feature helps the trader understand the True Fractal Nature of price. This can also be seen as an alternate to the default line chart feature.
Examples of Entry Types taken by Smart Money Traders
ADDITIONAL FEATURES:
(These features are essential addons to trade liquidity. However, these are derived from publicly available indicators from the Tradingview library, but with a different interpretation for a better visualization of charts & or to time better trade entries without cluttering the charts)
a. Inside Bar & Outside Bars:
Identify not just a single Inside Bar as highlighted by other indicators, but to highlight a series of candles which are within a master candle range and are exhibiting unimportant sideways price action.
Outside Bars only relevant to momentum candles are highlighted, ignoring candles that occur within a master candle range. Highs & Lows of such Outside Bars are used by aggressive traders to identify liquidity levels in the charts.
b. Highs & Lows of previous Monthly / Weekly / Daily & Hourly Candles:
This feature draws Highs & Lows of previous Monthly / Weekly / Daily & Hourly Candles on the extreme right hand side of the chart to keep the charts clean.
Additionally for Hourly time frame, the indicator includes a setting to select the hourly candle time frame (60 min / 75 min / 240 min), which are personal and different for each trader.
UNDERLYING CONCEPT:
In the image below we see how a large majority of Traders / Investors incorrectly mark Structure markings, mistaking a raid of internal liquidity as a Break of Structure, thereby taking trades opposite to the broader trend of the markets
However, this indicator has a higher accuracy of identifying the correct price structure by only marking a structure high or low, when a subsequently opposite side liquidity is taken/raided. Further the broader trend of the markets can be easily identified by looking as to which side the Break of Structure has happened. (This is visible in the indicator in the form of 'Range' feature, so if a Range High is broken then it is understood to be in an uptrend & vice versa)
The underlying core functionality of the indicator is best displayed by the image below
USECASE OF THE INDICATOR:
Before taking any Buying/Selling position in the markets, a Trader / Investor must analyze the price action on the following parameters
HTF & LTF Trend Identification (To judge if trade is Pro-Trend or Counter-Trend)
Is Price at a High Probability Area of Interest?
Is Price satisfying the trade entry conditions?
Let us see how this indicator can be used as a complete trading system in itself and addresses each of the above parameters
Disclaimer: Illustrations shown below are just for understanding the features of the indicator & does not guarantee profitability. Every trader must back test their setups to arrive at a setup with an edge (positive expectancy) before they start actively trading the setup.
1. HTF & LTF Trend Identification (Pro-Trend / Counter-Trend) using 'Range (BoS)' feature of the indicator
Let's assume a Day Trader, uses hourly chart (75 min) to frame his Higher Time Frame (HTF) ideas & 15min charts (LTF) for trade entries
Looking at the chart below the Trader concludes that the HTF has most recently broken the structure to the downside and is considered Bearish till price action is below the range high of 48600 levels. It can also be concluded that the price is currently in a Bullish retracement.
The Trader can choose to take both Pro-Trend or Counter-Trend Trades, timing the trade entries using the LTF charts.
Looking at the LTF chart below, it is evident that price on LTF has also broken structure to the downside and is now aligned with the HTF Bearish Trend. The Trader will now look to get into short trades, to take trades both in line with HTF & LTF trend.
2. Let's identify if Price is at a High Probability Area of Interest, using either single or combination of the 'Swings' / 'Gaps' / 'Outside Bars' / 'HL of previous M,W,D, H candles' features of the indicator
Definition of High Probability Level / Area differs from each Traders perspective depending upon which of the Trading Styles (mentioned in the beginning) does one use.
Smart Money Traders
SMC Traders are known to get into trades early and their high R:R trades are taken mostly at a High Probability Area of Interest which are identified by them on HTF, by looking for candles with imbalance (gaps) & or candles which have taken out a previous liquidity and then having creating imbalance (gaps).
Also Turtle Soups is one of the favorite setups for SMC traders, where a trader enters a trade on LTF (typically 1 min/3min & 5min) after grabbing HTF liquidity lying at H/L of outside bar / previous monthly, weekly, daily or hourly candles.
Demand & Supply Traders
Some of the Best Demand & Supply Traders have the patience to wait for trades and take trades at the extreme Demand & Supply Zones within a market Range.
As illustrated below, the extreme hourly supply zone just below the structure high, which has the confluence of imbalance and Bearish HTF confirmation resulted in a good R:R trade.
Price Action Traders & Support & Resistance Traders
From the illustration below we can see how the 15 min Range breakdown confirms the breakdown of the Inverted Cup Pattern for Price Action Traders & Support & Resistance Traders using the same area of breakdown as the new Resistance to enter Short trades
3. Let's identify if Price is satisfying the Trade Entry Conditions using the 'Zig-Zag Lines' feature
Statistics say that majority (> 80%) of Traders blow up their accounts multiple times or completely give up and never achieve profitability.
One of the primary reasons for this is Traders punching trades randomly and without having proper Setup or rules for entering Trades.
Also in order to arrive at rules or execute the different entry models (couple of examples highlighted earlier) taught by different Trainers, a Trader needs to learn to visualize charts in a similar format to what the trainers are teaching.
The Zig-Zag lines feature is a form of line chart that joins the swing high points to the swing low points on the chart to represent the True Price action & a proper fractal nature of the markets, unlike the line chart which is formed by only by joining the closing value of each candle.
From the image below we can see that the Zig-Zag lines feature eliminates the randomness visible in the line chart and is a more smoother chart. Using this feature one can back test the various entry models widely available on the internet or arrive at a user specific model which he/she is comfortable with.
CONCLUSION:
Trading with a deeper understanding of Price Action allows a Trader/Investor to enter or exit trades with ease. Price Action trading allows individuals to keep their charts clean and stay away from the other lagging technical indicators and enter trades much earlier than other technical indicators.
This indicator attempts in simplifying the understanding of price action for every one and identify potential high probability areas / levels where one should enter / exit trades.
This indicator will be an important tool in the arsenal of any Trader / Investor to take better informed trades, however it does not guarantee profitability of a Trader, due to the randomness of the markets & external factors that influence each trader.

Dynamic Trailing (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Dynamic Trailing (Zeiierman) indicator enhances the traditional SuperTrend approach by providing a more nuanced, adaptable tool for trend analysis and market volatility assessment. It combines techniques to identify dynamic support and resistance levels, trend directions, and market volatility. By integrating the Average True Range (ATR) with a unique multiplier system and smoothing mechanisms, this indicator offers a nuanced approach to trend-following strategies, making it a valuable asset for traders looking to leverage SuperTrend methodologies with additional insights into market dynamics.
█ How It Works
At its core, this indicator builds on the traditional SuperTrend formula by utilizing a modified ATR calculation to define the deviation for dynamic support and resistance levels. These levels are dynamically adjusted based on market volatility. The innovation lies in the addition of the Hull Moving Average (HMA) and the Triple Exponential Moving Average (TEMA) for an enhanced smoothing effect, making the indicator's trend signals more reliable and less prone to market noise. The trend direction is determined by comparing the closing price with the dynamic levels, facilitating clear bullish or bearish signals.
The indicator incorporates a 'Supertrend' function, which uses the dynamic levels and the price’s position relative to them to determine the trend direction. This determination is visualized through color-coded lines and a cloud zone, which expands or contracts based on the ATR and a user-defined width setting, illustrating the market's volatility and trend strength.
ATR Calculation: Utilizes the Average True Range (ATR) to measure market volatility. The ATR is a cornerstone of this indicator, helping to dynamically adjust the support and resistance levels according to the market’s changing conditions.
Supertrend Calculation: Implements a supertrend formula that combines the ATR with user-defined multipliers to plot potential trend directions. This feature helps in identifying whether the market is in an uptrend or downtrend, offering visual cues for potential reversals.
TEMA Calculation: Employs the Triple Exponential Moving Average (TEMA) through a Hull Moving Average (HMA) calculation to smooth out price data. This smoothing process helps in reducing market noise and makes the trend direction clearer.
Dynamic Support and Resistance: Calculates dynamic support and resistance levels by applying a deviation (derived from the ATR and user-defined multiplier) to the smoothed price data. These levels adapt to market conditions, providing areas where price might experience support or resistance.
Trend and Cloud Calculation: Determines the overall trend direction and plots a 'Cloud' zone around it, which adjusts in width based on the ATR and a user-defined cloud width setting. This cloud acts as a visual buffer, indicating the strength and stability of the current trend.
█ How to Use
Trend Identification: The primary function of this indicator is to help traders quickly identify the prevailing market trend. A change in the color of the dynamic trailing line or its position relative to the price can signal potential trend reversals.
Dynamic Support and Resistance: Unlike static levels, the dynamic levels adjust with market conditions, providing current areas where the price might experience support or resistance.
Dynamic Support
Dynamic Resistance
█ Settings
Mult (Multiplier): Adjusts the multiplier for the ATR calculation, affecting the deviation distance for support and resistance levels. Higher values decrease sensitivity and vice versa.
Len (Length): Sets the period for the HMA in the TEMA calculation, influencing the indicator's responsiveness to price changes.
Smoothness: Determines the smoothness of the dynamic support and resistance lines by setting the SMA length. Higher values result in smoother lines.
Cloud Width : Modifies the width of the cloud, providing a visual representation of market volatility.
Color Settings (upcol and dncol): Allows users to customize the colors of the indicator's lines and cloud, aiding in visual trend identification.

Consider this as more of a visual aid to add to your confluences.
Use a side by side chart layout with different timeframes to see more zones.
(See example of use at the bottom)
Pullback trades are popular with zones.
⭑⭑⭑ Zones ⭑⭑⭑
How are zones created?
Supply zones are created when the price drops quickly, so are found above the price action.
Demand zones are created when the price rallies quickly, so are found below the price action.
The script uses a combination of quick price movements and user defined minimum price % changes. All user defined settings have default settings which vary depending on asset type and timeframe.
What is a strong zone?
The zones boxes have either a dashed border or a solid border. A solid border represents a strong zone which is when
the price has moved very quickly from it, or
the price has bounced off the zone multiple times.
What is a deactivated zone?
When the price has gone through the zone by a certain %, the zone is deactivated and displayed in a more transparant colour.
How are deactivated zones used for switch zones?
When a new zone is created, it is checked to see if it overlaps a recently deactivated zone.
e.g. If a new demand zone overlaps a recently deactivated supply zone, then the zone has switched from supply to demand. This might mean the new zone could be a strong one and the number of hits on the previous zone (also a potential indicator of strength) is displayed in the zone label tooltip.
Zone information
Basic zone information can be found in the zone label.
Users can choose what information is displayed in the label including the number of hits and prices.
More detailed information can be found in the zone label tooltip.
Hovering over the label will display more information including the zone start time and height %.
DBD/RBR/RBD/DBR/FVG
Zones are defined as drop base drop, rally base rally, rally base drop, drop base rally, and fair value gap.
Zone height
Users have the option of choosing
Wick to wick, or
Wick to body
The indicator does its best to meet the user preference but sometimes it is not possible. The information in the label tooltip will show if the preference was matched.
Minimum and maximum height default settings help to prevent zone boxes which might fill the whole chart.
⭑⭑⭑ Lines of Interest ⭑⭑⭑
Lines of interest are displayed as an added bonus.
Long wick
Long wicks might show areas of support or resistance. Very long and long wicks are defined by the % change in the wicks.
Very long wick lines are always displayed, and long wicks are displayed if they are not near a zone.
Possible Support / Resistance
After a big rally or drop, lines are displayed to show where the price might pullback to. These lines can act as possible support or resistance, and
are taken from recently deactivated zones. A solid line respresents a strong deactivated zone.
⭑⭑⭑ Alerts ⭑⭑⭑
Limit the number of alerts to the recommended ones. Consider this as more of a visual aid to add to your confluences.
Alert types
Early alerts happen immediately.
Bar end alerts happen when the bar closes.
Alert display
Alerts can be displayed on the chart with symbols. The most recent symbols have a tooltip which allow alert information to be displayed when hovering over them.
It is recommended to turn the alert display off, as it can clutter up the chart. The alerts will continue to work with the display off.

All Time High (ATH) Levels [LuxAlgo]The All Time High (ATH) Levels indicator displays a user-set amount of historical all-time high levels made on the user's chart, highlighting potential key price levels.
Displayed levels can be filtered out based on their duration, as well as their relative distance from each other.
The script also evaluates the role a level might have as a support or resistance using a percentage, classifying ATH levels as either support or resistance depending on the result.
🔶 USAGE
On certain assets market participants give a high level of attention to all-time highs made by an asset, with the most pertinent example being Bitcoin.
Previous all-time highs can play important roles as psychological price levels, with the most recent ones often offering major resistance points, and older ones being used as support.
Users can filter out temporary ATHs using the ATH Minimum Duration setting, removing any ATH that lasts less than the user-specified number of bars. Higher values of this setting effectively preserve ATHs that become distinguishable peaks. These can offer more significant support/resistance levels.
When displaying each historical level some of them can be very close to each other. Users can use the "Minimum Distance Between ATH" setting to filter out levels too close to each other, with higher values of this setting returning more spaced levels. Distances are first evaluated from the most recent ATH. Note that this setting can cause repainting.
🔹 SR Classification
The script evaluates the ability of an ATH level to act as a support or resistance since its occurrence, and measures its strength as a percentage, with higher percentage values suggesting a stronger support or resistance.
Levels classified with "R" suggest that the price was located below the level most of the time, indicative of a resistance, while a level classified with "S" suggests that the price was located above the level most of the time, indicative of a support.
Percentages between 99% to 50% are often indicative of supports/resistances being tested, while values below 50% reflect more centered levels. A value of 100% suggests that an ATH level was not tested enough. users can filter out any level with a percentage below the "Minimum %" setting.
🔶 SETTINGS
Show Last ATH: Specify the amount of most recent ATH's to display.
ATH Minimum Duration: Minimum duration (in bars) of an ATH, that is the minimum number of bars that must elapse before another ATH can be made.
Minimum Distance Between ATH: Minimum distance between displayed ATH levels, starting from the most recent ATH. This distance is a multiple of the average true range.
🔹 SR Classification
Show SR%: Show percentage as well as ATH level classification.
Minimum %: Minimum percentage values required to display an ATH level.
True Median (With EMA)
This indicator was inspired by the concept of mean revision and is best to be used with that strategy in mind. True median takes the high and low within a determined length and finds the average between those two points and then plots an EMA for the median with an optional EMA for both the high and low.
HOW TO USE:
This indicator has a few uses it can be implemented with.
The first and most obvious is that it can act as an area of support and resistance within bigger and smaller time frames. Second, the median can act as an entry or exit point, as generally big movements will occur within the mediums of price points. EMA crossovers are also a way to use this indicator, if the median, high, or low cross over their EMA, that can act as a signal for price movement and continuation of a pre existing trend. Of course this is also a good indicator of volatility, as the wider the channels are between high and low the more volatile things are becoming.
I hope you enjoy and let me know how this indicator works for you!
ICT Concept [TradingFinder] Order Block | FVG | Liquidity Sweeps🔵 Introduction
The "ICT" style is one of the subsets of "Price Action" technical analysis. ICT is a method created by "Michael Huddleston", a professional forex trader and experienced mentor. The acronym ICT stands for "Inner Circle Trader".
The main objective of the ICT trading strategy is to combine "Price Action" and the concept of "Smart Money" to identify optimal entry points into trades. However, finding suitable entry points is not the only strength of this approach. With the ICT style, traders can better understand price behavior and adapt their trading approach to market structure accordingly.
Numerous concepts are discussed in this style, but the key practical concepts for trading in financial markets include "Order Block," "Liquidity," and "FVG".
🔵 How to Use
🟣Order Block
Order blocks are a specific type of "Supply and Demand" zones formed when a series of orders are placed in a block. These orders could be created by banks or other major players. Banks typically execute large orders in blocks during their trading sessions. If they were to enter the market directly with a small quantity, significant price movements would occur before the orders are fully executed, resulting in less profit. To avoid this, they divide their orders into smaller, manageable positions. Traders should look for "buy" opportunities in "demand order blocks" areas and "sell" opportunities in "supply order blocks".
🟣Liquidity
These levels are where traders aim to exit their trades. "Market Makers" or smart money usually collects or distributes their trading positions near levels where many retail traders have placed their "Stop Loss" orders. When the liquidity resulting from these losses is collected, the price often reverses direction.
A "Stop Hunt" is a move designed to neutralize liquidity generated by triggered stop losses. Banks often use significant news events to trigger stop hunts and acquire the liquidity released in the market. If, for example, they intend to execute heavy buy orders, they encourage others to sell through stop hunts.
As a result, if there is liquidity in the market before reaching the order block region, the credibility of that order block is higher. Conversely, if liquidity is near the order block, meaning the price reaches the order block before reaching the liquidity area, the credibility of that order block is lower.
🟣FVG (Fair Value Gap)
To identify the "Fair Value Gap" on the chart, one must analyze candle by candle. Focus on candles with large bodies, examining one candle and the one before it. The candles before and after this central candle should have long shadows, and their bodies should not overlap with the body of the central candle. The distance between the shadows of the first and third candles is called the FVG range.
These zone function in two ways :
•Supply and Demand zone: In this case, the price reacts to these zone, and its trend reverses.
•Liquidity zone: In this scenario, the price "fills" the zone and then reaches the order block.
Important Note: In most cases, FVG zone with very small width act as supply and demand zone, while zone with a significant width act as liquidity zone, absorbing the price.
🔵 Setting
🟣Order Block
Refine Order Block : When the option for refining order blocks is Off, the supply and demand zones encompass the entire length of the order block (from Low to High) in their standard state and remain unaltered. On the option for refining order blocks triggers the improvement of supply and demand zones using the error correction algorithm.
Refine Type : The enhancement of order blocks via the error correction algorithm can be executed through two methods: Defensive and Aggressive. In the Aggressive approach, the widest possible range is taken into account for order blocks.
Show High Levels : If major high levels are to be displayed, set the option for showing high level to Yes.
Show Low Levels : If major low levels are to be displayed, set the option for showing low level to Yes.
Show Last Support : If showing the last support is desired, set the option for showing last support to Yes.
Show Last Resistance : If showing the last resistance is desired, set the option for showing last resistance to Yes.
🟣 FVG
FVG Filter : When FVG filtering is activated, the number of FVG areas undergoes filtration based on the specified algorithm.
FVG Filter Types :
1. Very Aggressive : Apart from the initial condition, an additional condition is introduced. For an upward FVG, the maximum price of the last candle should exceed the maximum price of the middle candle. Similarly, for a downward FVG, the minimum price of the last candle should be lower than the minimum price of the middle candle. This mode eliminates a minimal number of FVGs.
2. Aggressive : In addition to the conditions of the Very Aggressive mode, this mode considers the size of the middle candle; it should not be small. Consequently, a larger number of FVGs are eliminated in this mode.
3. Defensive : Alongside the conditions of the Very Aggressive mode, this mode takes into account the size of the middle candle, which should be relatively large with the majority of it comprising the body. Furthermore, to identify upward FVGs, the second and third candles must be positive, whereas for downward FVGs, the second and third candles must be negative. This mode filters out a considerable number of FVGs, retaining only those of suitable quality.
4. Very Defensive : In addition to the conditions of the Defensive mode, the first and third candles should not be very small-bodied doji candles. This mode filters out the majority of FVGs, leaving only the highest quality ones. Show Demand FVG: Enables the display of demand-related boxes, which can be toggled between off and on. Show Supply FVG: Enables the display of supply-related boxes along the path, which can also be toggled between off and on.
🟣 Liquidity
Statics Liquidity Line Sensitivity : A value ranging from 0 to 0.4. Increasing this value reduces the sensitivity of the "Statics Liquidity Line Detection" function and increases the number of identified lines. The default value is 0.3.
Dynamics Liquidity Line Sensitivity : A value ranging from 0.4 to 1.95. Increasing this value enhances the sensitivity of the "Dynamics Liquidity Line Detection" function and decreases the number of identified lines. The default value is 1.
Statics Period Pivot : Default value is set to 8. By adjusting this value, you can specify the period for static liquidity line pivots.
Dynamics Period Pivot : Default value is set to 3. By adjusting this value, you can specify the period for dynamic liquidity line pivots.
You can activate or deactivate liquidity lines as necessary using the buttons labeled "Show Statics High Liquidity Line," "Show Statics Low Liquidity Line," "Show Dynamics High Liquidity Line," and "Show Dynamics Low Liquidity Line".
Fair Value Gaps
Introducing the Fair Value Gaps (FVG) Indicator by OmegaTools, a distinctive and analytical tool designed for TradingView. This script meticulously identifies and visualizes fair value gaps within the market, offering traders a nuanced understanding of potential price movement areas that are not immediately apparent through traditional analysis.
Concept and Methodology:
Fair Value Gaps are identified as areas on a chart where the price has skipped over, leaving a 'gap' that has not been filled. These gaps often occur due to sudden market movements triggered by news events, changes in market sentiment, or large orders that move the price significantly. The FVG Indicator detects these gaps by analyzing price action and identifying discrepancies between high and low prices over a specified period. This approach is rooted in the belief that markets tend to return to these unfilled spaces, providing potential opportunities for traders.
How It Works:
The indicator scans the chart for gaps between the high of one session and the low of the next (or vice versa), marking these gaps visually for easy identification.
Users can customize the lookback period to adjust the sensitivity of the indicator to recent versus historical data.
The FVG Indicator employs color-coding to distinguish between bullish and bearish gaps, allowing traders to quickly gauge market sentiment around these gaps.
Using the FVG Indicator:
Apply the indicator to any chart on TradingView and adjust the input settings, including the extension of FVGs and aesthetic preferences like color, to suit your analysis style.
Use the visual cues provided by the FVG Indicator to identify potential areas where the market may move to fill the gaps.
Combine the insights from the FVG Indicator with other technical analysis tools or fundamental analysis to validate potential trading opportunities.
Originality and Usefulness:
The FVG Indicator stands out due to its focused approach to identifying and visualizing fair value gaps, a concept that is often overlooked in conventional market analysis. By providing a clear visual representation of these gaps, the indicator adds depth to market analysis, aiding in the identification of potential price reversal zones or continuation signals.
Disclaimer and Responsible Use:
The financial markets are complex and unpredictable. The FVG Indicator is designed to offer analytical insights and should be used as part of a comprehensive trading strategy. It does not guarantee profits or predict market movements with absolute certainty. Traders are encouraged to use this tool judiciously, alongside proper risk management practices. Remember, past performance does not guarantee future results, and trading involves risks, including the potential loss of investment.
close price numberIn this script, we're creating a custom indicator to plot the previous day's closing price on the chart. This script retrieves the previous day's close using ta.change(time('d')) function. Then, it checks the value of the previous day's close and determines the increment accordingly input . Finally, it calculates the current day's close by adding the increment to the previous day's close and plots it on the chart.
The script can be integrated into a trading strategy to generate buy or sell signals based on the crossing closing price+increment line ...
Psychological Levels: previous day close price + increment numbers tend to have psychological significance in trading. Traders often pay attention to these levels because they represent key price levels that are easy to remember and widely recognized. When the price approaches these levels, traders may anticipate increased buying or selling pressure, leading to potential support or resistance.
For take profit and stop loss -Trader can use this as a take profit level on every previous day close+increment or close-decrement
buy signal-
1)whenever price cross any previous day close+number it give buy signal
2) i am using ma for filter buy signal we can enable and disable that function from input
sell signal-
1)whenever price cross any previous day close-number it give sell signal
2) i am using ma for filter sell signal we can enable and disable that function from input

Market Structure Shifts
By combining these components, the ICT Killzones Toolkit provides traders with a comprehensive framework for analyzing the market and identifying setups of interest. Leveraging these tools effectively can enhance traders' decision-making process and improve killzones interpretability.
🔶 USAGE
In forex/futures trading, timing is crucial. ICT Killzone are specific periods when there's a higher chance of finding setups of interest. Mastering these time intervals can offer significant advantages to traders who know how to use them effectively.
The image above highlights a potential setup of interest when using the ICT Killzones Toolkit.
As another example for utilizing the ICT Killzones Toolkit, we can see in the image above when price retests setups generated from killzones such as Order Blocks or Fair Value Gaps, a potential strategy could be to look for entries on those & take profits as the next killzone appears.
🔹 Order Blocks
Order Blocks are sections on a price chart where notable buying or selling activity has occured, often signaling interest zones for institutional traders. This toolkit's Order Blocks component pinpoints these areas within the Killzone, which may act as potential support or resistance levels.
🔹 Breaker Blocks
Breaker Blocks are zones built from mitigated order blocks, and highlight zones on the chart where price has previously stalled or reversed. These areas may act as significant barriers to price movement in the future, and the Breaker Blocks component helps traders identify them for potential trading opportunities.
🔹 Fair Value Gaps
Fair value gaps are especially favored by price action traders and arise from market inefficiencies or imbalances, typically when buying and selling are unequal. These gaps often attract price movement before resuming in the same direction. the Fair Value Gaps component of the toolkit helps traders identify and analyze them.
🔹 Market Structure Shifts
Market Structure Shifts refer to significant changes in the overall structure of the market, such as shifts in trend direction, volatility, or trading activity. These shifts can provide valuable insights into market sentiment and potential trading opportunities, and the Market Structure Shifts component helps traders identify and interpret them.
Overall, the ICT Killzone Toolkit combines these components to provide traders with a comprehensive framework for analyzing the markets and identifying high-probability trading setups.

ATR Grid Levels [By MUQWISHI]▋ INTRODUCTION :
The “ATR Levels” produces a sequence of horizontal line levels above and below the Center Line (reference level). They are sized based on the instrument's volatility, representing the average historical price movement on a selected higher timeframe using the average true range (ATR) indicator.
_______________________
▋ OVERVIEW:
_______________________
▋ IMPLEMENTATION:
The indicator starts by drawing a Center Line that is selected by the user from a variety of common levels. Then, it draws a sequence of horizontal lines above and below the Center Line, which are sized based on the most confirmed average true range (ATR) at the selected higher timeframe.
In the top right corner of the chart, there is a table displaying both the selected ATR (in the right cell) and the ATR of the current bar (in the left cell). This feature enables users to compare these two values. It's important to note that the ATR of the current bar may not be confirmed yet, as the market is still active.
_______________________
▋ INDICATOR SETTINGS:
# Section (1): ATR Settings
(1) ATR Period & Smoothing.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
GG - LevelsThe GG Levels indicator is a tool designed for day trading U.S. equity futures. It highlights key levels intraday, overnight, intermediate-swing levels that are relevant for intraday futures trading.
Terminology
RTH (Regular Trading Hours): Represents the New York session from 09:30 to 17:00 EST.
ON Session (Overnight Session): Represents the trading activity from 17:00 to 09:29 EST.
IB (Initial Balance): The first hour of the New York session, from 09:30 to 10:30 EST.
Open: The opening price of the RTH session.
YH (Yesterday's High): The highest price during the RTH session of the previous day.
YL (Yesterday's Low): The lowest price during the RTH session of the previous day.
YC (Yesterday's Close): The daily bar close which for futures gets updated to settlement.
IBH (Initial Balance High): The highest price during the IB session.
IBL (Initial Balance Low): The lowest price during the IB session.
ONH (Overnight High): The highest price during the ON session.
ONL (Overnight Low): The lowest price during the ON session.
VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price): The volume-weighted average price that resets each day.
Why is RTH Important?
Tracking the RTH session is important because often times the overnight session can be filled with "lies". It is thought that because the overnight session is lower volume price can be pushed or "manipulated" to extremes that would not happen during higher volume times.
Why is the ON Session Important Then?
Just because the ON session can be thought as a "lie" doesn't mean it is relevant to know. For example, if price is stuck inside the ON range then you can think of the market as rotational or range-bound. If price is above the ON range then it can be thought of as bullish. If price is below the ON range then it can be thought as bearish.
What is IB?
IB or initial balance is the first hour of the New York Session. Typically the market sets the tone for the day in the first hour. This tone is similarly a map like the ON session. If we are above the IBH then it is bullish and likely a trend day to the upside. If we are below the IBL then it is bearish and likely a trend day to the downside. If we are in IB then we want to avoid conducting business in the middle of IBH and IBL to avoid getting chopped up in a range bound market.
These levels are not a holy grail
You should use this indicator as guide or map for context about the instrument you are trading. You need to combine your own technical analysis with this indicator. You want as much context confirming your trade thesis in order to enter a trade. Simply buying or selling because we are above or below a level is not recommended in any circumstance. If it were that easy I would not publish this indicator.
Adjustments
In the indicator settings you can adjust the RTH, ON, and IB session-time settings. All of the times entered must be in EST (Eastern Standard Time). You may want to do this to apply the levels to a foreign market.
Examples
SMC Fake Zones + InsideBarThis indicator is useful for whom trade with "Smart Money Concept (SMC)" strategy.
It helps SMD traders to identify fake or weak zones in the chart, So they can avoid taking position in this zones.
This indicator marks "Asia session" as well as "London and New York's Lunch Time (one hour before London and NY session starts)" zones.
It also marks Inside Bar candles which SMC trades consider as order flow. You can mark every Inside Bar or only those with opposite color via setting options.
*** As we know in SMC rules
1- Supply and Demand zones in "Asia session and Lunch Times" are fake zones for SMC trading and price will engulf them in most of times.
2- "Asia session high and low" has huge liquidity and usually price sweep that in London session.
This indicator will helps traders to visually identify those Fake zones and Asia session liquidity.
* You can change session times based on your time zone in settings.
* You can set options to show all Inside Bars or only with Opposite color in settings.
SHIBO V6.0**SHIBO v6 - Fibonacci Impulse Analysis Indicator**
*By Shahab Sadeghi (@shahabs2004)*
**Overview:**
Welcome to SHIBO v6, a revolutionary Fibonacci Impulse Analysis Indicator designed to harness the power of a unique chart pattern. The script employs a reverse Fibonacci methodology to identify powerful impulses that first reach Fibonacci level 0.382, experience a correction, and then continue toward Fibonacci level 1. This description delves into the intricacies of how the script calculates precise price targets based on this distinctive pattern.
keep in mind that this Indicator is based on this Idea that each Impulse have its own support and Resistant Levels(stop loss and Target)
**Key Features:**
1. **Reverse Fibonacci Calculation:** SHIBO v6 introduces a novel approach to Fibonacci analysis. Instead of the conventional method where price targets are set from Fibonacci 0 to 1, this script calculates the distance price moves towards Fibonacci 1 from 0.382. This innovative technique identifies potential reversal and continuation zones with unparalleled accuracy.
2. **Impulse and Correction Identification:** Users play a pivotal role in recognizing high-probability trading opportunities. The script requires manual selection and marking of powerful impulses, focusing on identifying corrections and anticipating potential reversal zones within these impulses.
3. **Optimized Fibonacci Levels:** Leveraging the reverse Fibonacci approach, the script dynamically computes and draws Fibonacci retracement levels (R1, R2, R3) based on the calculated distance the price has moved towards Fibonacci 1. These levels serve as strategic benchmarks, offering insights into potential price movements and areas of interest.
4. **Dynamic Line Drawings:** SHIBO v6 features dynamic line drawings, including impulse start and end points, Fibonacci levels, and stop-loss levels. These visual elements facilitate a comprehensive understanding of the analysis, assisting users in making well-informed trading decisions.
5. **Informative Table Display:** A dedicated table provides crucial information, including impulse start and end points, Fibonacci levels, and percentage deviations from the current price. This table enhances the user's grasp of the analyzed data, fostering effective decision-making.
6. **Prefix Identification:** Users employing multiple SHIBO indicators on a chart can use the Prefix input to assign a unique identifier to each instance. This streamlines the analysis process, particularly when dealing with multiple instances of the indicator.
**How the Script Calculates Targets:**
1. **Impulse Recognition:** Users manually identify a robust impulse in the price movement, signifying a potential trend change or continuation.
2. **Correction Confirmation:** Anticipate or confirm the start of a correction phase within the selected impulse. Corrections often occur after a strong price movement.
3. **Manual Setting of IS and IE Points:** Set the impulse start (IS) and end (IE) points manually based on the identified impulse and correction.
4. **Fibonacci Level Calculation:** The script dynamically calculates Fibonacci levels (R1, R2, R3) based on the distance the price has moved towards Fibonacci 1 from 0.382. These levels serve as potential targets and areas of interest.
5. **Visual Representation:** The script visually represents the calculated levels through dynamic line drawings, providing a clear picture of potential reversal and continuation zones.
**Advanced Usage (Pro Users):**
- **Customizable Line Drawings:** Explore the commented-out lines in the script for additional functionalities and customization options for line drawings. Pro users can tailor the script to align with unique trading strategies.
**Disclaimer:**
Trading carries inherent risks, and SHIBO v6 introduces a distinctive approach to technical analysis. Exercise caution, conduct thorough analysis, and consider risk management strategies before making trading decisions. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
**Support and Feedback:**
Join the community of traders committed to refining strategies based on reverse Fibonacci impulse analysis. Share your experiences, insights, and suggestions to contribute to the continuous improvement of SHIBO v6.
**how Calculations Goes ?**
Imagine you're analyzing a stock price:
IS (Initial Start Price): Let's say the stock price starts at $100.
IE (Initial End Price): After a significant movement, the price reaches $120.
1. Identify Fibonacci Retracement Levels:
fi1 (0.382): This level suggests a potential retracement of 38.2% of the upward move.
fi2 (0.5000): This level represents a 50% retracement, or halfway back to the starting price.
fi3 (0.6180): This level represents the "Golden Ratio" and another potential support/resistance area.
fi4 (0.7860): This level suggests a retracement of 78.6% and can also be used for stop-loss calculations.
2. Calculate Multiples:
m1: Divide the final price ($120) by the starting price ($100) raised to the power of fi1 (120 / 100^0.382). This gives you a value we'll use later.
m2: Similar calculation, but using fi2 instead of fi1.
m3: Similar calculation, but using fi3 instead of fi1.
3. Calculate Target Prices:
Take Profit (Resistance)
TP1: Raise the value of m1 to the power of 1/(1-fi1). This gives you a potential upside target price based on the 38.2% retracement level.
TP2: Similar calculation, but using m2 and fi2.
TP3: Similar calculation, but using m3 and fi3.
4. Calculate Stop-Loss Levels:
Stop loss(Support)
SL1 or Support: Multiply TP1 by the starting price ($100) raised to the power of fi4. This gives you a potential downside stop-loss level based on the 78.6% retracement from TP1.
SL2: Similar calculation, but using TP2 and fi4.
SL3: Similar calculation, but using TP3 and fi4.
5. Calculate Midpoint Level:
MID: Multiply TP1 by the starting price ($100) raised to the power of fi3. This gives you a potential support/resistance level halfway between TP1 and the starting price.
Remember, these are just potential levels and not guaranteed. It's important to use other technical and fundamental analysis alongside Fibonacci retracements.
Here's the breakdown of the steps and their results:
1. Fibonacci levels define potential support and resistance areas:
The chosen Fibonacci levels (0.382, 0.5, 0.618, and 0.786) are often seen as potential zones where the price might stall or reverse after a strong move.
2. Multiples and target prices:
The multiples (m1, m2, m3) represent price ratios based on different retracement levels.
Target prices (TP1, TP2, TP3) are calculated by raising these multiples to specific exponents. These prices suggest areas where the price might encounter resistance after a retracement (not guaranteed predictions).
3. Stop-loss levels:
Stop-loss levels (SL1, SL2, SL3) are based on the target prices and another Fibonacci level (0.786). They mark price points where a trader might exit a trade to manage risk if the price moves against them.
Essentially, the calculations translate Fibonacci retracement levels into concrete price points for potential entry (targets) and exit (stop-loss) points.
*Happy Trading and Empowered Analysis!*

Features:
Customization Options: Users can adjust the appearance of the lines (color, width, and style) to match their chart setup or preferences.
User-Defined Lookback Length: The number of bars to look back for finding equal highs and lows can be set by the user, allowing for flexibility in different market conditions.
Debug Labels: An optional feature that provides labels at the points of equal highs and lows, useful for analysis and understanding the indicator's workings.
How It Works:
The indicator scans the chart within the user-defined lookback length to find bars where the high or low matches that of the current bar. When such a match is found, a line is drawn connecting these points. This process is repeated for each bar, ensuring that all significant levels of equal highs and lows are marked. The indicator is designed to be intuitive and does not predict future market movements but rather highlights important price levels based on historical data.
Usage:
Identifying Support and Resistance: The lines drawn by the indicator can be used to identify potential support and resistance zones, which are crucial for making informed trading decisions.
Strategy Development: Traders can incorporate the visual cues provided by the indicator into their trading strategies, using them as one of the factors for entry or exit decisions.
Originality:
This indicator offers a unique approach to identifying and visualizing equal highs and lows, providing traders with a clear view of significant price levels. Unlike standard indicators, it allows for extensive customization and applies an innovative method to enhance chart analysis.
Conclusion:
The "Equal Highs and Lows" indicator is a practical tool for traders looking to enhance their chart analysis with visual cues of significant price levels. Its customization options and innovative approach make it a valuable addition to the trading toolkit, suitable for various trading styles and strategies.
