Three Drive [TradingFinder] 3 Drive Harmonic Pattern Indicator🔵 Introduction
The "Three Drive" pattern is one of the light "RTM" setups suitable for identifying price trend reversals. For this reason, this pattern is considered one of the "Reversal Patterns."
🟣 Bullish 3 Drive
At a price bottom, a formation occurs where the negative trend appears to continue, and lower lows are made.
However, the second low penetrates the range of the first low, and the third low penetrates the range of the second low, indicating a decrease in selling pressure and an increase in buying pressure.
Entry point is issued after the penetration of the third low to the second low, and targets are the highs formed in the "3 Drive."
🟣 Bearish 3 Drive
At a price top, a formation occurs where the positive trend appears to continue, and higher highs are made.
However, the second high penetrates the range of the first high, and the third high penetrates the range of the second high, indicating a decrease in buyers' strength and an increase in sellers' strength.
Entry point is issued after the penetration of the third high to the second high, and targets are the lows formed in the "3 Drive."
Importance :
This pattern bears a striking resemblance to the some of "Harmonic Pattern" and "Ending Diagonal" in the "Elliott Pattern".
🔵 How to Use
There is no need for further confirmation to use this pattern, and you can use it as soon as the pattern forms. However, to reduce errors, it is better to use this pattern when it forms within a "Supply and Demand" or "Support and Resistance" structure.

🔵 Settings
You can set your desired "Pivot Period" via settings for the indicator to identify setups based on it.
Wedgepatterns
wedges and flagsThis script identifies chart patterns: wedges, flags, triangles on the chart
It has many settings. You can choose by which extremums you want to identify patterns - by the edges of wicks (tails, shadows), or by the edges of candle bodies .
You can also adjust the accuracy - how smooth and accurate the shapes must be in order for them to be considered wedges or triangles.
You can also customize other parameters of the figure, for example, how long the flagpole should be in order to consider such a figure a wedge, a flag or a triangle.
You can also set how large the allowable spread of candles relative to the flagpole can be.
The Sensitivity parameter - will allow you to control the number of patterns detected depending on whether you want the patterns to be detected more often, or if they cover more candles and thus be more reliable
You can also customize your styles.
All key settings are accompanied by tooltips
Wolfe Scanner (Multi - zigzag) [HeWhoMustNotBeNamed]Before getting into the script, I would like to explain bit of history around this project. Wolfe was in the back of my mind for some time and I had several attempts so far.
🎯Initial Attempt
When I first developed harmonic patterns, I got many requests from users to develop script to automatically detect Wolfe formation. I thought it would be easy and started boasting everywhere that I am going to attempt this next. However I miserably failed that time and started realising it is not as simple as I thought it would be. I started with Wolfe in mind. But, ran into issues with loops. Soon figured out that finding and drawing wedge is more trickier. I decided will explore trendline first so that it can help find wedge better. Soon, the project turned into something else and resulted in Auto-TrendLines-HeWhoMustNotBeNamed and Wolfe left forgotten.
🎯Using predefined ratios
Wolfe also has predefined fib ratios which we can use to calculate the formation. But, upon initial development, it did not convince me that it matches visual inspection of Wolfe all the time. Hence, I decided to fall back on finding wedge first.
🎯 Further exploration in finding wedge
This attempt was not too bad. I did not try to jump into Wolfe and nor I bragged anywhere about attempting anything of this sort. My target this time was to find how to derive wedge. I knew then that if I manage to calculate wedge in efficient way, it can help further in finding Wolfe. While doing that, ended up deriving Wedge-and-Flag-Finder-Multi-zigzag - which is not a bad outcome. I got few reminders on Wolfe after this both in comments and in PM.
🎯You never fail until you stop trying!!
After 2 back to back hectic 50hr work weeks + other commitments, I thought I will spend some time on this. Took less than half weekend and here we are. I was surprised how much little time it took in this attempt. But, the plan was running in my subconscious for several weeks or even months. Last two days were just putting these plans into an action.
Now, let's discuss about the script.
🎲 Wolfe Concept
Wolfe concept is simple. Whenever a wedge is formed, draw a line joining pivot 1 and 4 as shown in the chart below:
Converging trendline forms the stop loss whereas line joining pivots 1 and 4 form the profit taking points.
🎲 Settings
Settings are pretty straightforward. Explained in the chart below.
