Pivots and SwingsThis indicator displays simple pivots of varying degrees and connects them into swings whilst displaying the information of each swing.
First order pivot highs are confirmed when the N number of bars each side of the bar in question have a lower high whilst a first order pivot low is confirmed when the N number of bars on each side of the bar in question have a higher low. In this script N is set to 2 as a default, so when the middle bar of a set of 5 bars has the highest high, then it is considered a first order pivot high and vice versa for lows.
Second order pivot highs are confirmed when a first order pivot is higher than the first order pivot points on either side of the pivot point in question. Second order pivot lows are confirmed when a first order pivot low is lower than the first order pivot lows either side of the pivot in question.
Third order pivots follow the same logic but consider the highest and lowest second order pivots
A quick note on how the bars are coloured basis trends. If price breaks through the last first order pivot high, the bars will be coloured in a (default) green sequence and will stay green until price moves back below the most recent first order pivot low, at which time it will revert to a (default) red sequence.
The information about the duration and magnitude of the swings are displayed in an effort to identify when a swing leg of an overall trend may be shortening which signifies a weakening trend, or lengthening to signify a trend that is gaining in strength.
I hope you find this indicator useful!

Support and Resistance ZoneSupport and Resistance Zone Indicator :
Introduction :
The purpose of this indicator is to identify the chart symbol's main supports and resistances. It displays these key zones, which are very important psychological points for traders. Since support and resistance are not very precise levels, the indicator displays them as zones.
Pivots :
Pivots are a key concept in identifying support and resistance. The indicator uses two types of pivot:
Pivot high : This is a high point that has not been reached by a user-defined number of candles on either the left and right of this candle. The " left pivot leg " is the number of candles before this pivot point that have not reached the realized high, and the " right pivot leg " is the number of candles after this pivot point that have not reached this high. If these two conditions are met, the pivot point is considered a turning point, and resistance is probably the cause.
Pivot low : This is a low point that has not been reached by a user-defined number of candles on either the left or right. The " left pivot leg " is the number of candles before this pivot point that have not reached the candle low, and the " right pivot leg " is the number of candles after this pivot point that have not reached this low. If these two conditions are met, the pivot point is considered a turning point, and support is probably the cause.
Support/Resistance area :
If a pivot point has been identified, the indicator considers it a resistance if it's a pivot high, or a support if it's a pivot low. To define the support or resistance zone, we'll use the ATR (Average True Range), an indicator that measures asset volatility. We'll take the ATR of the candle for which the pivot was spotted, and use it as the width of the support or resistance zone. Thus the upper line of support/resistance is at pivot+atr/2 and the lower line is at pivot-atr/2 . The greater the volatility, the larger the zone.
New Support/Resistance :
If a new pivot has been identified, but the level of this pivot lies between the lower line and the upper line of the previous support or resistance, the indicator considers this to be the same support or resistance as before. In this case, no new support or resistance is created. The pivot must be outside the area of the previous support or resistance to be validated.
Anticipated Support/Resistance :
This indicator also allows early detection of support or resistance. To do this, the value of the right pivot legs will be shortened in order to find these areas more quickly. The support or resistance will then be considered anticipated and may disappear at any time if the high/low is reached. On the other hand, if the high/low is not reached, and a number of candles equal to the " Right Pivot Legs" parameter has elapsed since the detection of this anticipated support/resistance, it will be considered validated and will integrate the other supports/resistances of the chart.
Extended supports/resistances :
For a more optimal view, the indicator allows the user to choose the number of last support or resistance levels to be extended to the last candle. This must be specified in the indicator parameters.
Parameters :
Pivot Legs : Determine the left and right legs of the pivot i.e the number of candle before and after the pivot that doesn’t reach pivot point. The pivot is validated only if this two conditions are verified.
Extend Last Supports : Number of supports to extend to the last bar
Extend Last Resistances : Number of resistances to extend to the last bar
Show Support/Resistance Anticipated : If yes, will find anticipated support and resistance
Right Pivot Legs for Anticipation : Determine the right legs of pivots to find faster a support or a resistance.
Conclusion :
This indicator plot support and resistance zones based on pivot. The width of support and resistance zones are calculated with ATR. Possibility to find anticipated support and resistance in order to have more timeliness informations.
Enjoy the indicator and don’t forget to take the trade ;)

Geometric Trend Angle [AstroHub]This script, "Geometric Trend Angle," is designed to identify trend reversals based on the geometric angle of the price chart. Here's a detailed explanation of its originality, functionality, and usage:
Originality and Usefulness:
The uniqueness of this script lies in its approach to trend reversal detection through the calculation of the geometric trend angle. Unlike traditional methods, this script combines the analysis of the angle of the price movement with specific conditions for identifying potential trend reversals.
How it Works:
Length and Trend Angle: The user sets the "Length" parameter, determining the period for calculating the trend angle. The script then computes the trend angle, representing the change in prices over the specified period.
Trend Reversal: The script identifies potential trend reversals when the trend angle changes from positive to negative, and the current closing price is higher than the previous closing price.
Green Reversal: Additionally, the script looks for instances where the trend angle changes from negative to positive, and the current closing price is lower than the previous closing price, indicating a potential reversal to the downside.
Graphical Representation: The script visually highlights the identified reversal points on the chart with labels ("Trend Reversal" and "Green Reversal") and draws a line from the reversal point for better visualization.
Alerts: Traders are alerted to potential trend reversals and green reversals, allowing for timely responses to changing market dynamics.
How to Use:
Apply the script to your TradingView chart.
Customize the "Length" parameter based on your preference and analysis.
Observe the colored candles and graphical elements to identify potential trend reversals.
Pay attention to alerts for timely notifications of reversal signals.
Conclusion:
The "Geometric Trend Angle" script provides a unique perspective on trend reversals, combining geometric angle analysis with specific conditions for improved accuracy. Traders can use it as part of their overall analysis to make informed decisions in the dynamic market environment.
Local Highs & Lows ATC-LHAL [ATC]What does this indicator do?
This indicator plots the highest and lowest historical price for each candle for a specified time interval, so you can see for each candle which price was the historical ("local") maximum or minimum in the defined time interval. It helps you not to lose sight of previous highs and lows, even when working with short time frames.
In the example chart you can see the highest price for each candle, that have occurred during a defined time interval (adjustable in the indicator settings), here as an example during 1 day.
So, for example, during trading in a 5m chart, you can always see the highest and lowest price, that occurred e.g. some time ago.
Where is the benefit?
For trading, it can be a strategic advantage to know the last decisive high or low in a defined period of time.
If the time frame is very short, e.g. 5m as in the example chart shown, then the overall overview is often missing: It is often of interest to know at what price the last high was within the last day, for example. This indicator can therefore be configured by specifying a time interval so that this local high is always displayed. In the example chart, this high is shown as a plotted green line.
The same is true with the historical low point in a defined interval: This is shown in red in the example chart. As an example, one day was specified for the lookback period for both the local high and the local low.
How is the data for each candle calculated?
The indicator's script plots the highest or lowest price for each candle that occurred in the specified time period. The loopback periods can be defined separately for the high price and low price.
How is the indicator configured?
Inside of the settings of the indicator you can set the High Lookback Interval and the Low Lookback Interval easily, for example 1 day, or 30 minutes, just as you like.
This interval will be the lookback period, and the highest or lowest price that occurred during this interval will be plotted.
Why is this script special?
Unlike most other scripts, the time interval can be specified in seconds, minutes, hours or days and not by a number of candles. It is therefore independent of the time interval. It is no longer necessary to adjust the number of candles accordingly, when you switch the time frame.
Have fun!
HT: Intraday LevelsIndicator draws several most important intraday levels: last day RTH high/low, ETH high/low, Half Back, Day Close and current day RTH Day Open. These levels often act as support/resistance for intraday price movements. Also, they can help to assess day character and control of power.
Indicator can be used for ETH + RTH sessions.
Important notes:
• User must specify RTH session time, appropriate for his time zone and exchange
• Half-back is calculated as a middle line between RTH High and Low.
• Day Close is always equal to close of the last bar of the previous day
• RTH Day Open will be redrawn for the current day as soon as it is known (after RTH session opens and at least one bar gets confirmed).
Known issues:
• Day open will not be shown if there is no bar, clearly corresponding to RTH open time (e.g. if 4h timeframe is selected)
• For some ETH sessions it is not possible to determine session’s last bar (this is pine script limitation) until next day trading starts. This means that daily levels will be also update with only then.
Parameters:
Date – user can select date, for which levels will be plotted. Works only if “Use” check box is on. Otherwise, levels will be plotted for the last day. (“time” value doesn’t matter; unfortunately, there is no way to hide the input box)
RTH Open/Close time – it is important to specify time, appropriate for your time zone.
Time zone – your chart time zone (as UTC offset)
Visuals – controls visibility and colors
Script is published as an open source. It uses two libraries: Levels Lib and Functions Lib. First one demonstrates how to work with pine-script object model and arrays. You can also reuse it in your custom scripts where there is need to construct any support/resistance levels. The second library contains some useful functions for working with time and dates.
Disclaimer
This indicator should not be used as a standalone tool to make trading decisions but only in conjunction with other technical analysis methods.
Liquidity Grabs | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Liquidity Grabs indicator! This indicator can renders bubbles with different sizes at candles that have liquidity grabs, which happen when a liquidity areas (buyside / sellside liquidity) is swept. These candles often fill a lot of market orders that were sitting on the liquidity zone. You can check "How Does It Work" section for more information.
Features of the new Liquidity Grabs Indicator :
Renders Liquidity Grabs
Customizable Algorithm
Customizable Styles
Alerts
🚩UNIQUENESS
Liquidity grabs can be useful when determining candles that have executed a lot of market orders, and planning your trades accordingly. This indicator renders liquidity grabs in an unique bubble style, the size of the bubble is calculated by the size of the wick that caused the liquidity grab. The indicator also lets you customize the pivot length and the wick-body ratio for liquidity grabs.
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Liquidity grabs occur when one of the latest pivots has a false breakout. Then, if the wick to body ratio of the bar is higher than 0.5 (can be changed from the settings) a bubble is plotted. Using the wick length as a metric to measure liquidity is good because long wicks can translate to a large amount of buyers / sellers entering the market.
The bubble size is determined by the wick to body ratio of the candle.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Pivot Length -> This setting determines the range of the pivots. This means a candle has to have the highest / lowest wick of the previous X bars and the next X bars to become a high / low pivot.
Wick-Body Ratio -> After a pivot has a false breakout, the wick-body ratio of the latest candle is tested. The resulting ratio must be higher than this setting for it to be considered as a liquidity grab.
It's All MidsIt's All Mids extends mid-lines of a candle forward until the price revisits (covers) the midpoint. A higher timeframe can be used for the mid candles than the chart (but not the reverse). There is no data to support this is a meaningful concept.
While this script is intended to be functional, correct and useful it is important that you understand that not only is this the first script I've written but also that "I am an idiot."(tm) Using a stranger's indicator is questionable, but using a self-proclaimed idiot's indicator to trade real money is unquestionably stupid. Don't be like me. Be smart. You are responsible for what you do with this script. The source is unlocked, so feel free to copy and modify it.
Terms:
- A "mid" is the (high+low)/2 price of a previous candle that has not been auctioned since the candle close. All candles will initially have a mid unless they close on exactly their midpoint.
- A "covered" mid is a mid for which the midpoint has been auctioned since the candle closed. There is an option to display a number of these so that when a mid is hit the line doesn't just disappear from the chart and you forget what you were doing.
- A "low priority" mid is the mid of a candle which was auctioned in the previous candle(s) (chart's timeframe, not the mid's timeframe)-- chopchopchop. I have no data to show that this matters, or really, that anything matters at all.
My use: I chart a 60m mid on ES on a 5 or 15 minute chart. I am lying. I use it for something else but if I tell you that then I give away my incredible alpha that has made me so rich I can spend my time crying in corner about all the money I've lost.

Machine Learning Breakouts (from Pivots)I developed the 'Machine Learning Breakouts (from Pivots)' indicator to revolutionize the way we detect breakout opportunities and follow trend, harnessing the power of pivot points and machine learning. This tool integrates the k-Nearest Neighbors (k-NN) method with the Euclidean distance algorithm, meticulously analyzing pivot points to accurately forecast multiple breakout paths/zones. "ML Pivots Breakouts" is designed to identify and visually alert traders on bullish breakouts above high lines and bearish breakouts below low lines, offering essential insights for breakout and trend follower traders.
For traders, the instruction is clear: a bullish breakout signal is given when the price crosses above the forecasted high line, indicating potential entry points for long positions. Conversely, a bearish breakout signal is provided when the price breaks below the forecasted low line, suggesting opportunities to enter short positions. This makes the indicator a vital asset for navigating through market volatilities and capitalizing on emerging trends, designed for both long and short strategies and adeptly adapting to market shifts.
In this indicator I operate in a two-dimensional space defined by price and time. The choice of Euclidean distance as the preferred method for this analysis hinges on its simplicity and effectiveness in measuring and predicting straight-line distances between points in this space.
The Machine Learning Breakouts (from Pivots) Indicator calculations have been transitioned to the MLPivotsBreakouts library, simplifying the process of integration. Users can now seamlessly incorporate the "breakouts" function into their scripts to conduct detailed momentum analysis with ease.
10 Minute Futures Session Open RangeInspired by SamRecio's 30sec OR script.
The 10 minute Opening Range (OR) dynamically identifies and visualizes the opening range of a trading session within the first 10 minutes after the market opens at 9:30 AM EST, concluding at 4:00 PM EST, reflecting the typical trading hours for U.S. stock exchanges. This indicator is particularly useful for strategies that rely on the initial market momentum and direction established during the early moments of the trading session.
Upon activation, the indicator calculates the highest (orHigh) and lowest (orLow) price levels reached during the first 10 minutes of the trading session, marking these levels with green (for the high) and red (for the low) lines directly on the chart overlay. Additionally, it computes and plots a midpoint (midPoint) between these high and low levels, displayed as a blue line, offering a visual reference for the median of the opening range.
The calculations are reset daily to ensure the indicator accurately reflects the opening range for each new trading session. By doing so, it avoids carrying over data from previous days, maintaining relevance and precision for day traders and those utilizing short-term trading strategies. The indicator also incorporates timezone adjustments to align with the America/New_York timezone, ensuring that the opening range is accurately captured regardless of the user's local timezone.
This tool is invaluable for traders looking to capitalize on breakout or reversion strategies around the opening range, providing clear visual cues for significant price levels established at the start of the trading session. By focusing on the first 10 minutes of trading, it caters to a specific segment of the market that believes the initial movements can set the tone for the rest of the day's trading activity.
Timely Opening Range Breakout Strategy [TORB] (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Timely Opening Range Breakout (TORB) indicator builds upon the classic Open Range Breakout (ORB) concept. The ORB strategy is a popular trading setup used to identify trades around the opening range of an asset. It's based on the idea that the first few minutes (15-60 minutes) of trading often set the tone for the rest of the day, with breakouts above or below the opening range signifying potential trends.
TORB refines the concept by stating that a trade is only valid if there is sufficient market activity. This means a breakout beyond the upper or lower range is only of interest during the most active trading hours, as defined by PMMV (Per-Minute Mean Volume)
█ How It Works
ORB
The indicator works by first defining a session's opening range based on user-specified settings, including the session's start and end times and the applicable time zone. During this session, it calculates the high and low price points, which form the basis for identifying potential breakout levels.
PMMV
PMMV (Per-Minute Mean Volume) provides a snapshot of the market's activity level at each minute of the trading day. PMMV is calculated by averaging the trading volume in a one-minute interval over a specified number of trading days. This script uses the average volume over the last N periods to determine the PMMV value. This average volume provides a smoother representation of volume activity compared to using a single volume value. It considers the volume over a broader timeframe, filtering out short-term fluctuations and potentially offering a more reliable indicator of underlying market activity.
TORB
TORB works by integrating the Opening Range Breakout (ORB) highs and lows with the Per-Minute Mean Volume (PMMV) metric to assess the validity of breakouts. The objective is to identify breakouts from the opening high and low levels during periods of heightened market activity, as indicated by PMMV.
█ How to Use
To effectively utilize the Timely Opening Range Breakout (TORB) strategy, follow these steps:
Identify Active Hours: Employ PMMV to pinpoint periods of peak activity within the trading day.
Apply Basic ORB Rules: If the price surpasses the upper range (resistance), buy; if it breaches the lower range (support), sell.
Breakouts
The TORB strategy identifies breakout signals when the price moves beyond the established range, supported by volume exceeding a set threshold. This technique aims to eliminate false signals, focusing on price movements during high market activity.
█ Settings
Session
Trading Session: Customize the trading session's start and end times.
Volume
Volume analysis is integral to the TORB strategy, as it uses volume data to confirm the strength and validity of breakout signals.
Period: Sets the number of periods (or bars) to calculate the average volume, which is then used to assess market activity level.
Sensitivity and Significance: Adjusts how responsive the volume analysis is to changes in trading volume. By adjusting the sensitivity, traders can decide how much emphasis to place on volume spikes, potentially reducing false breakouts and focusing on those supported by significant trading activity.
Breakout Threshold
This setting establishes a criterion to identify when the price movement is significant enough.
Threshold: Traders set a threshold level to identify high market activity. If the PMMV is greater than or equal to this threshold, it indicates significant market activity.
Setting the correct threshold is key to balancing sensitivity and specificity. Too low of a threshold may lead to many false positives, while too high of a threshold might filter out potentially profitable breakouts. This setting helps in pinpointing when market activity indicates a strong move, thereby aligning trade entries with moments of heightened market momentum.

Relative Strength Scoring SystemRelative Strength Scoring System :
Important prerequisite :
This indicator can be loaded on any forex chart, i.e. a currency pair, but must not be loaded on any other asset due to certain market closures.
The chart timeframe must be less than or equal to the trading timeframe, which is the indicator's first parameter. A timeframe equal to that of the "Trading Timeframe" parameter is preferable.
Introduction :
This indicator measures the relative strength of a currency against all other currencies using spread formulas. It gives an indication of which currencies are bullish, neutral or bearish. The ultimate aim of this indicator is to find out which pair will generate a higher probability of gain than the others by pairing the most bullish pair with the most bearish pair.
Spread formulas :
To find the relative strength of a currency compared with others, we use the following spreads formulas :
USD = (FX:USDJPY/100+SAXO:USDEUR+FX:USDCHF+SAXO:USDGBP+FX:USDCAD+SAXO:USDAUD+FX_IDC:USDNZD)/7
JPY = (SAXO:JPYUSD/100+FX_IDC:JPYAUD/100+FX_IDC:JPYCAD/100+FX_IDC:JPYNZD/100+FX_IDC:JPYCHF/100+SAXO:JPYEUR/100+FX_IDC:JPYGBP/100)/7
CHF = (FX:CHFJPY/100+SAXO:CHFUSD+SAXO:CHFEUR+FX_IDC:CHFGBP+FX_IDC:CHFCAD+SAXO:CHFAUD+FX_IDC:CHFNZD)/7
EUR = (FX:EURJPY/100+FX:EURUSD+FX:EURCHF+FX:EURGBP+FX:EURCAD+FX:EURAUD+FX:EURNZD)/7
GBP = (FX:GBPJPY/100+FX:GBPUSD+FX:GBPCHF+SAXO:GBPEUR+FX:GBPCAD+FX:GBPAUD+FX:GBPNZD)/7
CAD = (FX:CADJPY/100+SAXO:CADUSD+FX:CADCHF+FX_IDC:CADGBP+SAXO:CADEUR+FX_IDC:CADAUD+FX_IDC:CADNZD)/7
AUD = (FX:AUDJPY/100+FX:AUDUSD+FX:AUDCHF+SAXO:AUDGBP+FX:AUDCAD+SAXO:AUDEUR+FX:AUDNZD)/7
NZD = (FX:NZDJPY/100+FX:NZDUSD+FX:NZDCHF+SAXO:NZDGBP+FX:NZDCAD+SAXO:NZDAUD+SAXO:NZDEUR)/7
CRYPTO = (BITSTAMP:BTCUSD+BITSTAMP:ETHUSD+BITSTAMP:LTCUSD+BITSTAMP:BCHUSD)/4
Timeframes :
As mentioned in the prerequisites, the chart timeframe must not be greater than the trading timeframe. The latter corresponds to the timeframe chosen by the trader to enter a position, and is the indicator's first parameter. Once this has been chosen, the algorithm selects the timeframes of the "Trend" and "Velocity" charts. Here's how it allocates them :
Trading TF => ("Velocity TF", "Trend TF")
"5min" => ("15min ", "60min")
"15min" => ("60min ", "4h")
"30min" => ("2h ", "8h")
"60min" => ("4h ", "12h")
"4h" => ("12h", "1D")
"6h" => ("1D", "3D")
"8h" => ("1D", "4D")
"12h" => ("2D", "1W")
"1D" => ("3D", "1W")
Trend Scoring System :
When the timeframe of the trend graph has been allocated, the algorithm will establish this graph's score using three criteria :
Trend chart pivot points: if the last two pivots, high and low, are increasing, the score is 1; if they are decreasing, the score is -1; else the score is 0.
SMA: if its slope is increasing with a candle strictly above the SMA value, the score is 1; if its slope is decreasing with a candle strictly below it, the score is -1; otherwise, it is 0.
MACD: if the MACD is positive, the score is 1, if it is negative, the score is -1; else it's 0.
We then sum the scores of these three criteria to find the trend score.
Velocity Scoring System :
In the same way, we analyze the score of the "velocity" graph with its corresponding timeframe using three criteria :
The EMA: if its slope is increasing with a candle strictly above the EMA value, the score is 1; if its slope is decreasing with a candle strictly below it, the score is -1; otherwise, it is 0.
The RSI: if the RSI's EMA has an increasing slope with an RSI strictly greater than the value of this EMA, the score is 1; and if the RSI's EMA has a decreasing slope with an RSI strictly less than this EMA, the score is -1; otherwise it is 0.
SAR parabolic: if the SAR is below the price, the score is 1; if it is above the price, the score is -1.
We then sum the scores of these three criteria to find the velocity score.
Relative Strength Scoring System :
Once the trend score and velocity score have been calculated, we determine the relative strength score of each currency using the following algorithm :
If trend score >=2 and velocity score >=2, the currency is bullish.
If trend score <=2 and velocity score <=2, currency is bearish
If (trendScore>=2 or velocityScore>=2) and (trendScore=1 or velocityScore=1) the currency is not yet bullish
If (trendScore<=2 or velocityScore<=2) and (trendScore=-1 or velocityScore=-1) the currency is not yet bearish.
Otherwise the currency is neutral

3 Pivots Interpolation BreakoutsI designed the '3 Pivots Interpolation Breakouts' indicator to intuitively identify breakout opportunities using pivot points. This tool stems from my need to anticipate market direction and capitalize on breakouts. It uses a line interpolated from three pivot highs or lows to forecast upcoming breakouts. This offers a straightforward way to visualize potential bullish and bearish breakouts with color-coded extrapolations. The aim is to simplify breakout detection, enhancing your trading strategy with precise, actionable insights.
Pivot Extremes BreakoutI created the "Pivot Extremes Breakout" (PEB) indicator to easily spot breakout zones using pivot points. This tool comes from my need to anticipate market direction and capitalize on breakouts. PEB uses the last two pivot points to predict price paths and highlights potential breakout areas, adjusting for any timeframe. It simplifies seeing where the market might move next with color-coded lines and zones, aiming to improve your trading decisions.
Liquidity LevelsThe "Liquidity Levels" indicator on TradingView is designed to identify and highlight liquidity levels in the market. This indicator is based on pivot highs and lows with an adjustable offset to adjust the importance and length of the identified levels.
The strength of this indicator lies in its ability to highlight changes in liquidity levels, which can be crucial for traders. By marking pivot highs and lows, potential areas of high liquidity are highlighted, which can indicate where significant market movements or reversal points may occur.
The flexibility of whether the calculation is based on the closing price or the high/low prices allows for customisable analysis. The visual representation of liquidity levels by lines makes it easier to identify and monitor these key areas in the chart, which can provide additional value for traders.
Timeframe PivotsUse this tool to plot open prices from any timeframe as a pivot level with the option to go advanced and turn on extensions (instructions below), which review the relationship between previous and current open prices to build range extensions up to six levels wide.
Please be aware extensions, nor vwap are not enabled by default! It is up to the user to determine how they wish to setup this indicator. Please read the full description for utilizing this indicator so that it's well known the complete feature set and understanding of how to enable additional plots, complete instruction is provided for all users below.
Default configuration example:
To enable extensions the user must open the indicator configuration by clicking the gear icon for "Timeframe Pivots", depending on screen resolution scrolling with mouse may need to occur in order to find the section labeled "Extensions", use the mouse or equivalent human interface device to check the checkbox to the right of the color plots and line type drop down.
Extensions enabled example:
Timeframe Selection
Timeframes available to the indicator are any timeframe the platform makes available to the user by default, or also if the TradingView user has higher tier plan to create custom timeframes - those should be available as well. To adjust timeframe the user must open the indicator configuration by clicking the gear icon for "Timeframe Pivots", depending on screen resolution scrolling with mouse may need to occur in order to find the input labeled "Timeframe", use the mouse or equivalent human interface device select the drop down and select timeframe suitable to users application.
How the extension width and extensions are calculated:
The exact process takes the new timeframe change open price calculates the difference between prior open, once that has been completed then it's divided in half to build extensions.
Code example:
Extension Width = (Open - Open ) / 2
How the extensions are calculated:
// +1 for positive extension, -1 for negative extension
(Extension Width * (Configured Multiplier * 1)) + Pivot Open Price
+1 Extension:
$5 * (1.0 * 1) + $400 = $405
-1 Extension:
$5 * (1.0 * -1) + $400 = $395
So it should be established how each projected extension, either positive or negative, is created.
Range bound market detection and notes:
One note regarding the ranges, sometimes the open prices of each period can be close in proximity to their predecessor, there's not enough range to build meaningful projections. In these situations this means the market is most likely range bound and prior range data is utilized to continue providing guidance. This addresses an issue with other pivot indicators that will instead blindly follow price and present useless pivot ranges.
It does this through detection of average half range widths, the last 14 ranges to be exact, if the current, (open - open / 2), half range width is smaller than the average, prior half range width will be used.
Code example:
// assume past half range widths are 10, 8, 9, 5, 14, 7, 7, 9, 10, 10, 4, 7, 7, 8
float v_halfRangeWidthToUseForExtensions = na
v_priorHalfRangeWidth = 10
v_avgHalfRangeWidth = 8.2 // past range widths sum = 115 / 14
v_newHalfRangeWidthToUseForExtensions = 2 // new open - open is tiny compared to avg
if v_newHalfRangeWidthToUseForExtensions < v_avgHalfRangeWidth
// replace new half range width with previous one
v_newHalfRangeWidthToUseForExtensions := v_priorHalfRangeWidth
In the code example above if the new half range width was above or equal to the rolling average, no adjustment would be made by the indicator.
VWAP
Additional feature of showing vwap, anchored to the same timeframe as the pivot, provides a trend and volume analysis within the confines of the pivots range.
The user must open the indicator configuration by clicking the gear icon for "Timeframe Pivots", scroll using mouse to the "VWAP" section and click the checkbox next to the "Source" field, past the color plots. They are not enabled by default!
The user can also add the bands for VWAP by clicking the checkbox next to the "Bands" field, past the color plots. They are not enabled by default!
VWAP calculations begin from open price of new timeframe change, then afterwards the "Source" set is utilized, the default is HLC3 which is standard for VWAP indicators.
Multiple Timeframe Analysis (MTFA)
It's simple to create a unique combination of favored timeframes for multiple timeframe analysis, consider daily, weekly and monthly combined analysis for powerful indications of market sentiment and directional bias.
Example MTFA demonstration:
Why was this created?
I created this while investigating the efficacy of open price ranges, it became apparent that these pivot ranges are some of the more price respecting pivots I've ever observed. I also grew tired of lack of price adherence to other pivot indicators widely available.
There exists a relationship between each timeframes open price in comparison to prior open price, if the market is willing to navigate to a prior lower open price from higher open price, it could be perceived as bearish and the extensions (if enabled as instructed above), could be suitable range based projections for future price movements.
Example comparison:
As can be seen, and there are many examples, where Timeframe Pivots provides more discreet levels and potential explanations for price movements.
Blockunity Level Presets (BLP)A simple tool for setting performance targets.
Level Presets (BLP) is a simple tool for setting upside and downside levels relative to the current price of any asset. In this way, you can track which price the asset needs to move towards in order to achieve a defined performance.
How to Use
This indicator is very easy to use, you can set up to 5 upward and downward targets in the parameters.
Elements
The main elements of this tool are upward (default green) and downward (default red) levels.
Settings
Several parameters can be defined in the indicator configuration.
In addition to configuring which performance value to set the level at, you can choose not to display it if you don't need it. For example, here we display only two levels:
You can also choose not to display the labels:
Also concerning labels, you can choose not to display them in currency format, but in numerical format only (for example, if you're viewing a non-USD pair, such as ETHBTC):
Finally, you can modify design elements such as colors, level widths and text size:
How it Works
Here's how upside (_u) and downside (_d) levels are calculated:
source = close
level_1_u = source + (source * (level_1 / 100))
level_1_d = math.max(source - (source * (level_1 / 100)), 0)
Automatic Fibonacci Retracement Golden Pocket (GP)Main info
This script automatically draws you the Fibonacci retracement level called golden pocket from the latest detected pivot point to the actual price. This level is very popular among traders because the price tends to reverse on this level pretty often. You should use this on higher timeframes 15m+.
It is good to keep in mind that this level alone is not enough, you should still have another level there to enter the trade, for example golden pocket in combination with a demand zone is pretty solid. :)
Settings
The length for pivot point calculation is available in the script settings.
You can enable inverted golden pocket (for shorts)
You can hide/show the pivot point labels

█ Strategy: How it Works - Detailed Explanation
🔶 AI-Enhanced SuperTrend Indicators
1. SuperTrend Calculation:
- The SuperTrend indicator is calculated using a moving average and the Average True Range (ATR). The basic formula is:
- Upper Band = Moving Average + (Multiplier × ATR)
- Lower Band = Moving Average - (Multiplier × ATR)
- The moving average type (SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA, VWMA) and the length of the moving average and ATR are adjustable parameters.
- The direction of the trend is determined based on the position of the closing price in relation to these bands.
2. AI Integration with K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN):
- The KNN algorithm is applied to predict trend direction. It uses historical price data and SuperTrend values to classify the current trend as bullish or bearish.
- The algorithm calculates the 'distance' between the current data point and historical points. The 'k' nearest data points (neighbors) are identified based on this distance.
- A weighted average of these neighbors' trends (bullish or bearish) is calculated to predict the current trend.

🔶 Pivot Percentile Analysis
1. Percentile Calculation:
- This involves calculating the percentile ranks for high and low prices over a set of predefined lengths.
- The percentile function is typically defined as:
- Percentile = Value at (P/100) × (N + 1)th position
- Where P is the desired percentile, and N is the number of data points.
2. Trend Strength Evaluation:
- The calculated percentiles for highs and lows are used to determine the strength of bullish and bearish trends.
- For instance, a high percentile rank in the high prices may indicate a strong bullish trend, and vice versa for bearish trends.

🔶 Strategy Integration
1. Combining SuperTrend and Pivot Percentile:
- The strategy synthesizes the insights from both AI-enhanced SuperTrend and Pivot Percentile analysis.
- It compares the trend direction indicated by the SuperTrend with the strength of the trend as suggested by the Pivot Percentile analysis.
2. Signal Generation:
- A trading signal is generated when both the AI-enhanced SuperTrend and the Pivot Percentile analysis agree on the trend direction.
- For instance, a bullish signal is generated when both the SuperTrend is bullish, and the Pivot Percentile analysis shows strength in bullish trends.
🔶 Risk Management and Filters
- ADX and DMI Filter: The strategy uses the Average Directional Index (ADX) and the Directional Movement Index (DMI) as filters to assess the trend's strength and direction.
- Dynamic Trailing Stop Loss: Based on the SuperTrend indicator, the strategy dynamically adjusts stop-loss levels to manage risk effectively.
This strategy stands out for its ability to combine real-time AI analysis with established technical indicators, offering traders a nuanced and responsive tool for navigating complex market conditions. The equations and algorithms involved are pivotal in accurately identifying market trends and potential trade opportunities.
█ Usage
To effectively use this strategy, traders should:
1. Understand the AI and Pivot Percentile Indicators: A clear grasp of how these indicators work will enable traders to make informed decisions.
2. Interpret the Signals Accurately: The strategy provides bullish, bearish, and neutral signals. Traders should align these signals with their market analysis and trading goals.
3. Monitor Market Conditions: Given that this strategy is sensitive to market dynamics, continuous monitoring is crucial for timely decision-making.
4. Adjust Settings as Needed: Traders should feel free to tweak the input parameters to suit their trading preferences and to respond to changing market conditions.
█Default Settings and Their Impact on Performance
1. Trading Direction (Default: "Both")
Effect: Determines whether the strategy will take long positions, short positions, or both. Adjusting this setting can align the strategy with the trader's market outlook or risk preference.
2. AI Settings (Neighbors: 3, Data Points: 24)
Neighbors: The number of nearest neighbors in the KNN algorithm. A higher number might smooth out noise but could miss subtle, recent changes. A lower number makes the model more sensitive to recent data but may increase noise.
Data Points: Defines the amount of historical data considered. More data points provide a broader context but may dilute recent trends' impact.
3. SuperTrend Settings (Length: 10, Factor: 3.0, MA Source: "WMA")
Length: Affects the sensitivity of the SuperTrend indicator. A longer length results in a smoother, less sensitive indicator, ideal for long-term trends.
Factor: Determines the bandwidth of the SuperTrend. A higher factor creates wider bands, capturing larger price movements but potentially missing short-term signals.
MA Source: The type of moving average used (e.g., WMA - Weighted Moving Average). Different MA types can affect the trend indicator's responsiveness and smoothness.
4. AI Trend Prediction Settings (Price Trend: 10, Prediction Trend: 80)
Price Trend and Prediction Trend Lengths: These settings define the lengths of weighted moving averages for price and SuperTrend, impacting the responsiveness and smoothness of the AI's trend predictions.
5. Pivot Percentile Settings (Length: 10)
Length: Influences the calculation of pivot percentiles. A shorter length makes the percentile more responsive to recent price changes, while a longer length offers a broader view of price trends.
6. ADX and DMI Settings (ADX Length: 14, Time Frame: 'D')
ADX Length: Defines the period for the Average Directional Index calculation. A longer period results in a smoother ADX line.
Time Frame: Sets the time frame for the ADX and DMI calculations, affecting the sensitivity to market changes.
7. Commission, Slippage, and Initial Capital
These settings relate to transaction costs and initial investment, directly impacting net profitability and strategy feasibility.
