## Title
PivotX - Exhaustion & Pivot Detection

## Description

**PivotX** is a powerful visual indicator that helps traders identify when major buying or selling pressure has exhausted and when significant market reversals are likely to occur. Think of it as your market "exhaustion detector" that spots the exact moments when one side of the market runs out of steam.

### What Does PivotX Do?

PivotX watches for three critical market conditions:

1. **Selling Exhaustion** - When sellers have pushed price down aggressively but can't push it lower anymore. This is when buyers step in and price often reverses upward.

2. **Buying Exhaustion** - When buyers have pushed price up aggressively but can't push it higher anymore. This is when sellers step in and price often reverses downward.

3. **Major Pivot Points** - Key price levels where the market has made significant turns, marking important support (bottoms) and resistance (tops).

### How It Works (Simple Explanation)

Imagine a tug-of-war between buyers and sellers:
- When sellers are winning (price dropping), PivotX watches for when they get tired
- When buyers are winning (price rising), PivotX watches for when they get tired
- When one side gets exhausted, the other side usually takes over - that's when reversals happen!

PivotX uses multiple signals to confirm exhaustion:
- Volume patterns (when trading activity slows down after a big move)
- Price stabilization (when price stops moving in one direction)
- Absorption patterns (when high volume doesn't move price much - someone is absorbing the pressure)
- Support/Resistance levels (when price bounces off key levels)

### Visual Signals

**Green X Markers** (Below Price)
- Appears when selling has exhausted
- Buyers are stepping in
- Potential upward reversal signal

**Red X Markers** (Above Price)
- Appears when buying has exhausted
- Sellers are stepping in
- Potential downward reversal signal

**Yellow Diamonds**
- Marks major pivot points (support/resistance)
- Shows where significant price turns occurred
- Helps identify key levels for future trades

**Neon Green/Red Lines**
- Support lines (green) - where price found a bottom
- Resistance lines (red) - where price found a top
- These levels often act as future support/resistance

### Best Use Cases

✅ **Swing Trading** - Catch reversals at major pivot points
✅ **Scalping** - Enter trades when exhaustion is confirmed
✅ **Trend Following** - Identify when trends are losing steam
✅ **Support/Resistance Trading** - Use pivot lines as key levels
✅ **Reversal Trading** - Enter counter-trend trades at exhaustion points

### Settings Explained

**Detection Settings:**
- **Lookback Period** - How many bars to analyze (default: 20)
- **Volume Threshold** - Minimum volume spike to consider (default: 1.5x average)
- **Exhaustion Periods** - Bars to check for exhaustion signals (default: 3)
- **Min Price Move %** - Minimum price movement to trigger analysis (default: 2%)

**Pivot Detection:**
- **Pivot Strength** - Bars on each side for pivot confirmation (default: 3)
- Higher = fewer but stronger pivots
- Lower = more but weaker pivots

**Visual Settings:**
- Toggle exhaustion markers, pivot points, and support/resistance lines
- Customize colors to match your chart theme

### Pro Tips

1. **Wait for Confirmation** - PivotX requires multiple signals before showing exhaustion. This reduces false signals but means you might miss some early entries.

2. **Combine with Price Action** - Use PivotX signals with candlestick patterns for stronger confirmation.

3. **Watch the Pivot Lines** - The support/resistance lines often act as key levels. Price bouncing off these lines can be strong reversal signals.

4. **Volume Matters** - The indicator is more reliable when volume patterns confirm the exhaustion signals.

5. **Timeframe Flexibility** - Works on all timeframes, but signals on higher timeframes (4H, Daily) tend to be more reliable.

### What Makes PivotX Unique?

Unlike simple pivot indicators, PivotX combines:
- Volume exhaustion analysis
- Price action confirmation
- Multi-signal validation
- Clean, non-intrusive visualization
- Automatic support/resistance line drawing

This multi-layered approach helps filter out noise and focus on high-probability reversal setups.

### Important Notes

⚠️ **Not Financial Advice** - This indicator is a tool, not a guarantee. Always use proper risk management.

⚠️ **No Indicator is Perfect** - PivotX helps identify potential reversals, but markets can be unpredictable. Always use stop losses.

⚠️ **Combine with Other Analysis** - For best results, use PivotX alongside other technical analysis tools and your trading strategy.
