SPY 4 Hour Swing TraderThe purpose of this script is to spot 4 hour pivots that indicate ~30 trading day swings. As VIX starts to drop options trading will get more boring and as we get back on the bull and can benefit from swing trading strategy. Swing trading doesn't make a whole lot of sense when VIX is above 28. Seems to get best results on 4 hour chart for this one. This indicator spots a go long opportunity when the 5 ema crosses the 13 ema on the 4 hour along with the RSI > 50 and the ADX > 20 and Stoichastic values (smoothed line < 80 or line < 90) and close > last candle close and the True Range < 6. It also spots uses a couple different means to determine when to exit the trade. Sell condition is primarily when the 13 ema crosses the 5 ema and the MACD line crosses below the signal line and the smoothed Stoichastic appears oversold (greater than 60) and slop of RSI < -.2. Stop Losses and Take Profits are configurable in Inputs along with ability to include short trades plus other MACD and Stoichastic settings. If a stop loss is encountered the trade will close. Also once twice the expected move is encountered partial profits will taken and stop losses and take profits will be re-established based on most recent close. Also a VIX above 28 will trigger any open positions to close. If trying to use this for something other than SPXL it is best to update stop losses and take profit percentages and check backtest results to ensure proper levels have been selected and the script gives satisfactory results.

SPY 1 Hour Swing TraderThe purpose of this script is to spot 1 hour pivots that indicate ~5 to 6 trading day swings. Results indicate that swings are held approximately 5 to 6 trading days on average, over the last 6 years. This indicator spots a go long opportunity when the 5 ema crosses the 13 ema on the 1 hour along with the RSI > 50. It also spots uses a couple different means to determine when to exit the trade. Sell condition is primarily when the 13 ema crosses the 5 ema and the MACD line crosses below the signal line and the smoothed Stoichastic appears oversold (greater than 60). Stop Losses and Take Profits are configurable in Inputs along with ability to include short trades plus other MACD and Stoichastic settings. If a stop loss is encountered the trade will close. Also once twice the expected move is encountered partial profits will taken and stop losses and take profits will be re-established based on most recent close. Once long trades are exited, short trades will be initiated if recent conditions appeared oversold and input option for short trading is enabled. If trying to use this for something other than SPXL it is best to update stop losses and take profit percentages and check backtest results to ensure proper levels have been selected and the script gives satisfactory results.
NOMMO AUTOMATE🖖 Hi all!
Check out my NOMMO AUTOMATE indicator for trend detection, trend change points, hedging opposite trend impulses.
What the script do:
☑️ Detecting local and global trends and trend change points, detecting opposite to current trend impulses.
How the script do it:
☑️ The indicator compares RSI indicators on chosen by user Trend TF1 and Trend TF2 and marks trend change points.
☑️ The indicator compares different length HMA indicators on chosen by user Hedge TF to detect opposite to current trend impulses.
How to use it:
☑️ There are 4 states in the indicator: Long, Short, Flat, Hedge, marked by corresponding (adjustable) color zones, where Long = uptrend, Short = downtrend, Flat = sideways movement, Hedge = possible impulse in the opposite trend direction.
☑️ Select Trend TF1 and Trend TF2 and RSI length to determine the trend, depending on how a big picture you want to see, the more major TF you choose the more global picture of the trend change you get.
☑️ Select Hedge TF to determine the possible impulses opposite to the current trend (does not work in detected Flat movement).
☑️ For each trading pair you need to try individual settings, the default settings I use for BTC swing trading, to reduce the noise level of hedging put Hedge TF the same as the smaller Trend TF.
☑️ Try different settings, experiment and you will find the most suitable settings for your trading pair.
How magic works:
☑️ RSI Trend TF1 > 50 + RSI Trend TF2 > 50 = Long
☑️ RSI Trend TF1 > 50 + RSI Trend TF2 < 50 = Flat
☑️ RSI Trend TF1 < 50 + RSI Trend TF2 > 50 = Flat
☑️ RSI Trend TF1 < 50 + RSI Trend TF2 < 50 = Short
☑️ Long + Hedge TF (HMA 10 < HMA 70 < HMA 200) = Hedge
☑️ Short + Hedge TF (HMA 10 > HMA 70 > HMA 200) = Hedge
For example:
☑️ Try Trend TF1 = 1D, Trend TF2 = 1D and Hedge TF = 1D, with RSI period = 21, to check mid-term trend on BTCUSD
May the trade force be with you.
Volume Profile Fixed Range Support and Resistance LevelsThis script is based on the excellent Volume Profile / Fixed Range indicator by @LonesomeTheBlue, so all credit for the foundations of this indicator goes to @LonesomeTheBlue
I basically made 5 instances of the original script and added horizontal lines at the beginning and end of the each Value Area. To use the script as a support and resistance tool without the Value Areas and Point of Control (POC) labels you just need to untick "Boxes" and "Labels" in the "Style" section of the “Settings”.
The default look-back periods (in bars) are 7, 30, 60, 180 and 365, but you can change this or the colour of the lines easily in the “Settings”.
The dashed lines are the respective POC.
I find this tool to be very useful for quickly identifying interest levels on any chart while also ensuring a certain amount of objectivity in your TA.
Hope you find it useful and thanks again to @LonesomeTheBlue for going through the trouble of coding this and being so generous to share it with the rest of us!
Good luck out there!
Pivot Breaches by nnamdertWhat does this Indicator do?
This Pivot Point Line Breach Indicator is a simple yet powerful tool that automatically plots lines at the high and low pivot point levels and extends the lines forward to the most recent real-time bar. When the price breaches a line, the line stops at that breach point. The unbreached lines, however, continue on until they are eventually breached or the indictor reaches the maximum number of lines set by the user.
How is this Indicator helpful?
The pivot point lines plotted on the chart show areas where the price may eventually revert to. By knowing whether or not these lines have been breached, traders can easily identify potential entry points or support lines that are likely to be breached, especially when used with other indicators.
As shown in the screenshot below, some lines have been breached, while several others remain. Once the lines were breached, we could clearly see that the price moved quickly to the next level.
The indicator user inputs enable the plotting of up to 500 lines on the chart, if the user chooses to set the limit to 500. However, the default setting is currently set to a lower number, allowing traders to easily view the most recent unbreached pivot points.
The plotted lines are located at the close and high or low of the bar that generated the line. When there is a long wick, the two lines are plotted far from each other. A breach of both lines, particularly in the case of a long wick, indicates strong movement in the direction of the breach.
Thank you for using my indicator, and I hope it helps you make profitable trading decisions.
Relative Strength Index w/ STARC Bands and PivotsThis is an old script that I use with some useful RSI strategies from "Technical Analysis for the Trading Professional" 2nd edition by Constance Brown.
The base RSI comes with the option for custom length, and has some pre-configured ranges for looking at exits and entrances. The idea is to be bullish when bounces happen in the red zone during an already bullish trend or when the indicator enters green without a rejection. Be bearish if the indicator falls through the red zone or fails to enter green during an already bearish trend.
I have added the formulas used for creating STARC bands (just think fancier volatility bands) with adjustable tolerances. The idea is to look out for when the RSI touches one of the bands and reverses. This is usually indicative of a strong reversal (though the timing will be up to the trader). Best use this on shorter time frames during a volatile time of a stock's price action.
Although a little messy, there is a small segment of the script which includes pivot points. I like to use these because they make indicating local highs/lows for finding divergences easier.
Finally, I have added a couple of customizable EMAS for the RSI itself. Useful when combined with the other features!
Pivot Highs&lows: Short/Medium/Long-term + Spikeyness FilterShows Pivot Highs & Lows defined or 'Graded' on a fractal basis: Short-term, medium-term and long-term. Also applies 'Spikeyness' condition by default to filter-out weak/rounded pivots
ES1! 4hr chart (CME) shown above, with lookback = 15; clearly identifying the major highs & lows on the basis of how they are fractally 'nested' within lesser Pivots.
-- in the above chart Short term pivot highs (STH) are simply represented by green 'ʌ', and short-term pivot lows (STL) are simply represented by orange 'v'.
//Basics: (as applying to pivot highs, the following is reversed for pivot lows)
-Short term highs (STH) are simple pivot highs, albeit refined from standard with the 'spikeyness' filter.
-Medium-term highs (MTH) are defined as having a lower STH on either side of them.
-Long-term highs (LTH) are defined as having a lower MTH on either side of them.
//Purpose:
-Education: Quick and easy visualization of the strength or importance of a pivot high or low; a way of grading them based on their larger context.
-Backtesting: use in combination with other trading methods when backtesting to see the relative significance and price sensitivity of LTHs/LTLs compared to lower grade highs and lows.
//Settings:
-Choose Pivot lookback/lookforward bars: One setting, the basis from which all further pivot calculations are done.
-Toggle on/off 'Spikeyness' condition to filter-out weak/rounded/unimpressive pivot highs or lows (default is ON).
-Toggle on/off each of STH, MTH, LTH, STL, MTL, LTL; and choose label text-styles/colors/sizes independently.
-Set text Vertically, horizonally, or simply use 'ʌ' or 'v' symbols if you want to declutter your chart.
//Usage notes:
-Pivots take time to print (lookback bars must have elapsed before confirmation). Fractally nested pivots as here (i.e. a LTH), take even longer to print/confirm, so please be patient.
-Works across timeframes & Assets. Different timeframes may require slightly tweaked lookback/forward settings for optimal use; default is 15 bars.
Example usage with just symbolic labels short-term, med-term, long-term with 1x, 2x and 3x ʌ/v respectively:
Three-Day Rolling PivotThe three-day rolling pivot is another pivot concept,
which may be used by intermediate positions, for several days or even weeks.
It can be utilized in many ways, such as to determine an entry point or trailing stop.
As the name suggests, this pivot is based on the last three days.
I learned this concept of the book "The logical Trader" by Mark Fisher.
Kudos go to him!
My version of the Three-Day Rolling Pivot uses actual data!
And all similar scripts I have found so far calculate future data and don't take into account the original data.
I hope this script will help some people to do some better decisions.
And I am pleased to get some advice to make this script even better!
Future data vs original data
Pine Script v5 Reference Manual:
Merge strategy for the requested data position... This merge strategy can lead to undesirable effect of getting data from "future" on calculation on history. This is unacceptable in backtesting strategies, but can be useful in indicators.
e2e4 on Stack Overflow said:
Pine v1-v2's security() function is using the lookahead parameter by default, which could be modified in v3-v5...
stackoverflow.com
I haven't found a script which put this into account jet.
I leave this option available for people that wanna more speculated data. But it's disabled by default.
Long/Short Example
You can enter Long when the market cross over the upper line (default color is green) and you should put your trailing stop 1-5 ticks below the lower line (default color is red).
The opposite when Shorting, then the market has to cross down the lower line and your trailing stop should be 1-5 ticks above the upper line.
How does this script work:
First it fetches the highest high of ...
yesterday,
the day before yesterday,
and the day before that.
After that the script looks for the highest high of all three.
Next it does the same for previous lowest low.
Last but not least, it fetches the closing price of the last day.
After that it adds all three prices together and divide them by three.
This result in a three day pivot price.
Then it adds the highest high and lowest low of the three last days and divide it by two.
This gives us the second number we need to calculate the differential.
The differential is the gap between the three day pivot price and the second number.
Sometimes the second number is bigger than the three day pivot price so I took that into account too. Other wise the colors plotted would be on the wrong site.
Finally, the script is rounding the numbers to the nearest minimum tick of that security.
Multi-Timeframe High Low (@JP7FX)Multi-Timeframe High Low Levels (@JP7FX)
This Price Action indicator displays high and low levels from a selected timeframe on your current chart.
These levels COULD represent areas of potential liquidity, providing key price points where traders can target entries, reversals, or continuation trades.
Key Features:
Display high and low levels from a selected timeframe.
Customize line width, colors for high and low levels, and label text color.
Enable or disable the display of high levels, low levels, and labels.
Receive alerts when the price takes out high or low levels.
How to use:
It is important to note that using this indicator on it's own is not advisable. Instead, it should be combined with other tools and analysis for a more comprehensive trading strategy.
Possibly look to use my MTF Supply and Demand Indicator to look for zones to trade from at these levels?
If the price breaks above a high level, you might consider entering a long position, with the expectation that the price will continue to rise. Conversely, if the price breaks below a low level, you may think about entering a short position, anticipating further downward movement.
On the other hand, you can also use high or low levels to look for reversal trades, as these areas can represent attractive liquidity zones.
By identifying these key price points, you could take advantage of potential market reversals and capitalise on new trading opportunities.
Always remember to use this indicator in conjunction with other technical analysis tools for the best results.
Additionally, you can enable alerts to notify you when the price takes out high or low levels, helping you stay informed about significant price movements.
This indicator could be a valuable tool for traders looking to identify key price points for potential trading opportunities.
As always with the markets, Trade Safe :)
Fractals PivotsWhich trader does not know pivots? There are a lot of varieties of pivots indicators of which some are a default on most trading platforms. So what better way to challenge yourself then to create your own kind of pivots. Let's welcome the idea of Fractal Pivots.
Williams Fractal or fractals is a technical analysis indicator introduced by the famous trader Bill Williams in his book ‘Trading Chaos’. He developed it on the basis of the Chaos Theory and trading psychology. The indicator is centred around the idea that there is repetition in price behaviour and fractals can provide an insight into those repetitive patterns.
How does the indicator turn these into pivot lines?
The user will set a time period in which the script will look for fractals. It will then remember all the fractals that happen during that time period.
Let's say you are trading the hourly chart with a weekly pivot setting like in the chart this script is published on. The script will highling the 1h fractals that are happening. Then the next week it will use these exact fractals from previous week to draw the pivot lines.
Another example here is an 8h chart. Look how it uses the previous week fractals this week.
Let me know if you find a very great fractal length+timeframe setting where the levels really get respected. I would really appreciate that.
ADX trend reversal/continuation spotterThis indicator is based on ADX and uses a method based on pivot points to identify a possible trend reversal or trend continuation.
To better understand how to use this indicator, follow these instructions:
Check which type of line ADX is below/above.
If the ADX line is above the green line and has changed color, you can expect a possible trend change.
Similarly, if the ADX line is below the red line and has changed color, you can expect a continuation of the previous trend or a possible trend uptake based on the current situation in the chart.

Pivot Trendlines with Breaks [HG]🧾 Pivot Trendlines and Breaks
A script meant to debut and provide an example usage of the Simple Trendlines library using Pine Script's built-in pivot system.
In under 50 lines of code, with inputs, plots, styling, and alerts included we're able to create trendlines with a breakout system.
▶️ How it works
Calculating pivot points helps traders identify moments at which the market's attitude can shift from bullish to bearish. In the background, the script tracks pivot events for trendlines and uses a system that prevents any leakage between the trendlines before they are drawn.

Pivots For IndicatorsThis is an overlay indicator that finds and identifies pivots. It is very sensitive so works best on smoother oscillators such as Stoch RSI. Make sure you set the source to your indicator after you overlay it. You will need to adjust the rev high and low inputs in the settings. For example Stoch RSI would have a revhigh = 80 and revlow = 20. This script is not designed to work on the chart.

[JL] Supertrend Zone Pivot Point with zigzag fibThis is an open-source Pine script that generates a Supertrend Zone Pivot Point with Zigzag Fib indicator for TradingView. The indicator displays the Supertrend Zone, pivot points, and Fibonacci levels on the chart.
One of the unique features of this indicator is that it uses a Zigzag that does not repaint, ensuring accurate high and low points for the pivot points.
Another feature is that when the Supertrend is in an uptrend, only the highest points are taken as pivot points, and when it's in a downtrend, only the lowest points are taken as pivot points.
The Fibonacci levels are calculated based on the previous high and low pivot points, with labels displaying the corresponding levels on the chart.
The indicator also includes options to show/hide the Zigzag and Fibonacci levels.
Overall, this indicator is useful for identifying key pivot points and Fibonacci levels in the Supertrend Zone, providing valuable information for traders to make informed decisions.
RSI Trendlines with BreakoutsA pivot-based breakout indicator that attempts to provide traders with a visual aid for finding breakouts on the RSI. Similar to how we use trendlines on our charts, using them on the Relative Strength Index can also give us a sense of direction in the markets.
This script uses its own pivot-based system that checks for real-time swing levels and triggers a new pivot event after every dip and nth bars. The breakout alerts that are given were not designed to be taken as signals since their purpose is to provide an extra bit of confluence. Because of this, I added no other conditions that try to make the alerts "perfect", but instead, print every breakout that is detected. Despite stating this, I did happen to add a condition that checks the difference in RSI and the breakout value, but that's as far as it'll go.
There are alerts built-in to the script, along with adjustable repainting options.
🔳 Settings
Lookback Range: Lookback period to trigger a new pivot point when conditions are met.
RSI Difference: The difference between the current RSI value and the breakout value. How much higher in value should the current RSI be compared to the breakout value in order to detect a breakout?
RSI Settings
Styling Options
🔳 Repaint Options
On: Allows repainting
Off - Bar Confirmation: Prevents repainting and generates alerts when the bar closes. (1 candle later)
🔳 How it Works
Before a trendline is drawn, the script retrieves the slope between the previous pivot point and the current. Then it adds or subtracts the slope x amount of times (based on the lookback range) from the current pivot value until the current x-axis is reached. By doing this we can get a trendline that will detect a breakout accurately.
The result
When using the RSI Difference condition, the script will print breakouts whenever the condition is true, because of this dotted lines were added to track where the alert was triggered.

Minervini Pullback Strategy_Trend-Template QualifierGeneral Description and Unique Features of this Script
Introducing the ultimate trend-following (long-only) strategy that offers a unique feature you won't find anywhere else!
1. Our script/strategy utilizes Mark Minervini's Trend-Template as a qualifier for identifying stocks and other financial securities in confirmed uptrends. Mark Minervini, a 3x US Investment Champion, developed the Trend-Template, which covers eight different and independent characteristics that can be adjusted and optimized in this trend-following strategy to ensure the best results. The strategy will only trigger buy-signals in case the optimized qualifiers are being met.
2. Our strategy is based on supply/demand balance in the market, making it timeless and effective across all timeframes. Whether you're day trading using 1- or 5-min charts or swing-trading using daily charts, this strategy can be applied and works very well.
3. We also incorporate technical indicators such as RSI and MACD to identify low-risk pullback entries in the context of confirmed uptrends. By doing so, the risk profile of this strategy and drawdowns are being reduced to an absolute minimum, giving you peace of mind while trading.
Minervini’s Trend-Template and the ‘Stage-Analysis’ of the Markets
This strategy is a so-called 'long-only' strategy. This means that we only take long positions, short positions are not considered.
The best market environment for such strategies are periods of stable upward trends in the so-called stage 2 - uptrend.
In stable upward trends, we increase our market exposure and risk.
In sideways markets and downward trends or bear markets, we reduce our exposure very quickly or go 100% to cash and wait for the markets to recover and improve. This allows us to avoid major losses and drawdowns.
This simple rule gives us a significant advantage over most undisciplined traders and amateurs!
'The Trend is your Friend'. This is a very old but true quote.
What's behind it???
• 98% of stocks made their biggest gains in a Phase 2 upward trend.
• If a stock is in a stable uptrend, this is evidence that larger institutions are buying the stock sustainably.
• By focusing on stocks that are in a stable uptrend, the chances of profit are significantly increased.
• In a stable uptrend, investors know exactly what to expect from further price developments. This makes it possible to locate low-risk entry points.
The goal is not to buy at the lowest price – the goal is to buy at the right price!
Each stock goes through the same maturity cycle – it starts at stage 1 and ends at stage 4
Stage 1 – Neglect Phase – Consolidation
Stage 2 – Progressive Phase – Accumulation
Stage 3 – Topping Phase – Distribution
Stage 4 – Downtrend – Capitulation
This strategy focuses on identifying stocks in confirmed stage 2 uptrends. This in itself gives us an advantage over long-term investors and less professional traders.
By focusing on stocks in a stage 2 uptrend, we avoid losses in downtrends (stage 4) or less profitable consolidation phases (stages 1 and 3). We are fully invested and put our money to work for us, and we are fully invested when stocks are in their stage 2 uptrends.
But how can we use technical chart analysis to find stocks that are in a stable stage 2 uptrend?
Mark Minervini has developed the so-called 'trend template' for this purpose. This is an essential part of our JS-TechTrading pullback strategy. For our watchlists, only those individual values that meet the tough requirements of Minervini's trend template are eligible.
The Trend Template
• 200d MA increasing over a period of at least 1 month, better 4-5 months or longer
• 150d MA above 200d MA
• 50d MA above 150d MA and 200d MA
• Course above 50d MA, 150d MA and 200d MA
• Ideally, the 50d MA is increasing over at least 1 month
• Price at least 25% above the 52w low
• Price within 25% of 52w high
• High relative strength according to IBD.
We have developed an algorythm (for TradingView) that uses Minervini’s trend template as a qualifier. This means that the strategy only generates trading signals in case the selected elements of the trend template are being met. The user is fully flexible to adjust the requirements of this Trend-Template qualifier:
This strategy is normally applied to the daily chart ideal for selecting individual stocks for trend-following strategies. Nevertheless, Minervini’s principles are timeless and this alogrithmic strategy with the Trend-Template qualifier can also be applied to any other timframe.
The qualifier #9 (RS-Ratings) can be modified and optimized in the strategy’s settings to fit your individual needs.
In general, it should be noted that ideally all 8/8 trend template criteria are met. Stocks or other securities that meet only some of these 8 criteria can also be very promising candidates for this strategy, provided that backtesting yields good results.
The Pullback Strategy
For the JS-TechTrading pullback strategy, only stocks and other financial instruments that meet the selected criteria of Mark Minervini's trend template are considered. If not, the strategy will not generate any signals.
Further prerequisites for generating a buy signal is that the individual value is in a short-term oversold state (RSI).
When the selling pressure is over and the continuation of the uptrend can be confirmed by the MACD after reaching a price low, a buy signal is issued by the pullback strategy.
Stop-loss limits and profit targets can be set variably.
Relative Strength Index (RSI)
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a technical indicator developed by Welles Wilder in 1978. The RSI is used to perform a market value analysis and identify the strength of a trend as well as overbought and oversold conditions. The indicator is calculated on a scale from 0 to 100 and shows how much an asset has risen or fallen relative to its own price in recent periods.
The RSI is calculated as the ratio of average profits to average losses over a certain period of time. A high value of the RSI indicates an overbought situation, while a low value indicates an oversold situation. Typically, a value > 70 is considered an overbought threshold and a value < 30 is considered an oversold threshold. A value above 70 signals that a single value may be overvalued and a decrease in price is likely , while a value below 30 signals that a single value may be undervalued and an increase in price is likely.
For example, let's say you're watching a stock XYZ. After a prolonged falling movement, the RSI value of this stock has fallen to 26. This means that the stock is oversold and that it is time for a potential recovery. Therefore, a trader might decide to buy this stock in the hope that it will rise again soon.
Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD)
The MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) is a technical indicator used in both short-term and long-term trading strategies. The indicator was developed by Gerald Appel and is one of the most well-known indicators for the stock market.
The MACD consists of two lines calculated by the difference between two moving averages. The first line is a fast moving average that targets a short period of time. The second line is a slow moving average that targets a longer period of time. In addition, a trigger line is calculated, which consists of another moving average of the MACD line.
The MACD line is the difference between the fast and slow moving average.
The greater the difference between the two lines, the more likely a subsequent price increase. The lower the difference, the more likely a subsequent price drop is.
If the MACD line crosses upwards over the trigger line, this is a buy signal that signals a potential price increase. If the MACD line crosses down below the trigger line, this is a sell signal that signals a potential price weakening.
This strategy is applicable to all timeframes and the relevant parameters for the underlying indicators (RSI and MACD) can be adjusted and optimized as needed.
Backtesting
Backtesting give outstanding results on all timeframes and drawdowns can be reduced to a minimum level. Swing-Traders (daily charts) will see that the strategy does not give any buy signals during market corrections and bear markets.
Settings for backtesting are:
- Period from Jan 2000 until now
- Starting capital 100k USD
- Position size = 25% of equity
- 0.01% commission = USD 2.50.- per Trade
Other comments
• This strategy has been designed to identify the most promising, highest probability entries and trades for each stock or other financial security.
• The trend-template qualifier is highly selective and filters out the most promising swing-trading entries. As a result, you will normally only find a single-digit number of trades for each stock or other financial security per year in case you apply this strategy for the daily charts. Shorter timeframes will result in a higher number of trades / year.
• As a result, traders need to apply this strategy for a full watchlist rather than just one financial security.

Take Session High/Low Alert [MsF]Japanese below / 日本語説明は英文の後にあります。
-------------------------
This indicator that displays High/Low lines for each session. The Key Levels of each session can be visually recognized, which is useful for PD Array analysis. You can display the last 3 days. Based on trinity by ICT.
The biggest feature is that the color shape of the line changes when reaching High/Low. Of course, you can also set alerts.
Unreached High/Low lines can be extended to the right. hides all timeframes over 1 hour. (alert is alive)
You can choose 4 sessions. If you only want to use 3 sessions, you can do that by setting the same session time for 2 of the 4 session settings.
About Parameter Settings
Session Time: Please set it to be a 24-hour cycle. You can also specify the time zone. The default is NY time.
Basis/Other color: The first time specified in "Session Time" in this indicator's parameter is the "Basis color". "Other color" is a line other than that.
Enable Time Lines: You can turn on/off the display of vertical lines.
High/Low color: High/Low line setting that has not been reached.
Taken color: High/Low line setting that has already been reached.
Extend Lines: Allows unreached High/Low lines to be extended to the right in the chart.

Auto Unlimited Fibs 1.0Still in development, this indicator automatically draws unlimited Fibonacci Retracements so you don't have to keep manually drawing them.
Upwards moves are colored green by default and downward moves are colored red by default, idea being an upward move creates a green retracement level that may be an area to buy and vice versa for short moves. The retracements are drawn on every 3-bar swing high/low, this idea was taken from Inner Circle Trader (ICT). If the move then goes on to retrace past the 0.764 fib retracement, the move is mitigated. If a new high or low is put in the fib gets extended. The mitigation levels are customisable.
Also hides moves that are below a minimum size, as I don't like to see fibs of small moves, these are hidden based on a % of price, customisable in the script.
As the fibs get extended/mitigated and hidden you should end up with all the fibs that are still valid for a retracement.
There is a display option to draw shorter lines as things can get pretty messy with lots of fibs on one chart. Also, bigger moves have longer lines and are slightly brighter in color, shorter moves are shorter lines and duller in color.
Finally the user can customise the amount to show in each direction, so if you only want to see long moves set the Total Short Fibs To Show to 0, or choose 1 of each if you only want to see the most recent smallest fib.
Three Bar Gap (Simple Price Action - with 1 line plot)This script is tailored towards experienced traders who prefer to view raw price charts during live execution. It searches for a three-bar pattern of what is colloquially called "fair value gap", or "imbalance" and uses a single line to plot the results. The goal is to display price in a way that is as simple as possible so that chart readers who don't prefer to add indicators on their screen will still find this indicator as an acceptable option to consider for.
From a code perspective, this script explores a new PineScript feature called UDT (user-defined types). This is an incredible update because it brings developers one step close to having the ability to create abstract data types.
█ What is price action?
Experienced traders will tell you that the chart that they use for live execution is raw, clean, and uses no indicators. They say they execute on price action, so what exactly is price action?
There is no formal definition to it, but one can agree that it implies the process of analyzing price without considering the fundamentals, without needing to know what the news was about, and without needing to know any of the Greeks (except for the desire to “seek alpha” Ha.haa...). This is not to say that price action traders are executing in their own vacuums without the need to know what is happening around the world. Surely fundamentals and financial models can be used beforehand for developing a bias for what is being traded, but it’s price-first at the moment of execution. That said, Factor (A) is Price.
Factor (B) is time-perception, it’s how the trader reads the tape. How the trader perceives price to change with respect to time is valuable information. Interpretation of "time" will be elaborated in the next section that talks about candlestick patterns detected by this script.
Putting this together, price action means the analysis of price movement by only considering (A) price, and (B) time, to predict which direction the market will move. A speculative trader is timing the market with the expectation to make a quick in-and-out profit; she/she is using price action. On the other hand, a long term investor holding a diversified portfolio with a strategy based on modern portfolio theory combined with fundamental analysis (at this point candlesticks are irrelevant) but has one additional criteria of, say, can only go Long on a stock when it has closed Green on Daily; he/she is also considered to be executing on price action.
█ Candlestick patterns
This script calculates the displacement of highs and lows over three consecutive bars.
A) Down move = When High of the recent confirmed bar is lower than the Low of the previous-previous candle
B) Up move = When Low of the recent confirmed bar is higher than the High of the previous-previous candle
(Note that its the confirmed bar that is being talked about, so it does not repaint)
An ATR filter will be applied to reduce the number of lines generated as many times they might just be associated with minor price changes.
Interpretations:
When price moves quickly across three bars, it can be thought that it has gapped. Although the candle in the middle appears to be solid, it’s not from a conceptual perspective. This is because time itself is arbitrary; timeframes don’t necessarily have to be fixed intervals. Take stocks with regular trading hours for example, if price makes a breakaway gap and you bundle the after-hours and pre-market sessions together as one candle, never minding that intervals should be fixed, then you will see the exact three-bar-gap patterns. Similar happens during intraday sessions on lower timeframes, if you zoom-in closer, you’ll see that ticks within the middle candle are sparsely dispersed. This is why it's called a gap.
█ Parameters with fixed inputs & assumptions used:
ATR is used for filtering out minor movements that will likely be deemed as irrelevant by trader for the purpose of live execution. The following inputs are required:
A) ATR lookback period
B) Multiplier
The product of ATR(len=A) and B produces a threshold for minimum distance that price must gap by. Initially, it was proposed to be only based on one ATR, but often an ATR is too wide and using it will filter out too many lines. Because of this observation, a multiplier (Parameter B) has been introduced to allow users to apply fractional ATR as a threshold.
█ Applications:
For trend followers: Follow the direction of the gap. Entering above recent high/low points above/below the first impulse with a stop-limit order is a viable tactic.
For contrarians fading a trend: The mid-point is a good point of reference for predicting potential areas of support/resistance.
