CPR Option Selling StrategyGood afternoon traders,
This is a script I built for option selling, in attempt to have a high success rate.
The gist of how it works:
It uses the opening or close of the current chart's timeframe opening bar when referenced against a designated (higher) timeframe's central pivot range (CPR).
Using that comparison, this script calculates an option to sell: put, call, or iron condor. It will calculate a call value using an average of the CPR central pivot and the max value of the prior higher timeframe's high or R1 (whichever is higher.)
It does the same for the put side, but uses the higher timeframe's low or S1 (whichever is lower.)
It will use the option on the other side of the source (open or close) of the CPR as the "option in play."
Settings:
There are many settings, most are simply "viewable" settings, and probably self explanatory, others, not so much:
"Source for Trigger" - this is the value used on the "opening bar," such as the close. This value is the one compared to the Central Pivot Range in determining whether to sell a call (if the source is lower,) sell a put (if the source is higher,) or an iron condor if it's in the CPR.
"Show Historical Win/Loss Percentages" - this shows a table in the bottom right of the W/L percentages for the current ticker and settings. Used for a quick glance at historical success rates.
"Extend Developing Levels Into the Future" - This will extend the developing values for CPR values, call and put values into the future (good for trying to trade early or setting up pre-market trades, assuming there will not be huge gap in one direction or another.)
"Select Higher Timeframe" - "Auto" will choose the higher timeframe for you. "Manual" will use the next field...
"If Manual, Timeframe for Pivots" - allows you to choose a different higher timeframe.
The next two sections are simply whether to show the plots for different levels of traditional and/or camarilla pivot points.
The last section will allow you to just filter on certain days. Really only useful for "backtesting" certain 0DTE trades on some daily options during the hourly chart.
Example use:
An example use (which I completed last week) on the chart referenced in this share: I sold a put-spread for $0.90, selling a 590 and buying a 570 strike in the middle of the week. I was looking at an hourly timeframe chart with a weekly pivot timeframe for the strategy.
Obviously, making only $0.90 on a $20 spread, there is a lot more to lose than to make, but I did some other analysis to go with it, so I felt safe, and I had a stop set for $1.50. So it worked, along with 3 other plays I did, very similar, and if that "Historical Win/Loss Percentage" is accurate, which I am fairly certain it is, I felt good about it.
The key all comes down to what you sell it for, right? That piece only you can determine. :)
Happy trading and enjoy,
Deuce

Swing Pivots High LowBINANCE:BTCUSDT
This indicator is an opensource merge of the built in 'Pivot Points High Low' and the most popular 'Swing-high-low-support-resistance' indicators. The original 'Pivot Points High Low' does not have extensions with better visibility, while the most popular 'Swing-high-low-support-resistance' has no source available. I've also added additional configurable alert conditions for Pivot High and Low Crossover/Crossunder.
Please read the official documentation for further information about the indicator.
Combo Backtest 123 Reversal & Pivot Point V2 This is combo strategies for get a cumulative signal.
First strategy
This System was created from the Book "How I Tripled My Money In The
Futures Market" by Ulf Jensen, Page 183. This is reverse type of strategies.
The strategy buys at market, if close price is higher than the previous close
during 2 days and the meaning of 9-days Stochastic Slow Oscillator is lower than 50.
The strategy sells at market, if close price is lower than the previous close price
during 2 days and the meaning of 9-days Stochastic Fast Oscillator is higher than 50.
Second strategy
Pivot points simply took the high, low, and closing price from the previous period and
divided by 3 to find the pivot. From this pivot, traders would then base their
calculations for three support, and three resistance levels. The calculation for the most
basic flavor of pivot points, known as ‘floor-trader pivots’, along with their support and
resistance levels.

Derivative Pivot HL Points Hello.
This script aims to take into account mutable variable Pivot Points' periods.
While doing this, it takes the period between 2 signals that I use in the script:
And these periods in my Pivot HL function integrated into len length (Mutable variables) :
The cornerstone of the script is these facts.
Pivot can be optimized by playing with reversal periods.
These pre-formed levels can be used as Supply and Demand levels.
Regards.
Accum/Dist + 200 EMAAccumulation / Distribution Indicator with a 200 EMA applied to it.
Helps to identify market trends and especially useful if combined with Pivot Points.
When AD line is above the 200 EMA and price is hovering above the central Pivot, we assume a bullish bias towards R1 and R2 resistance points. And vice-versa.
Standard Deviation W/Q/M PivotsThis is a re-iteration of the standard deviation of daily pivots with the pivots applied on weekly, monthly, quarterly and yearly levels. For intraday traders the weekly pivot points will act as a major support resistance levels. Quarterly and monthly pivot points are useful for short-term positions while the yearly pivot determines the stock's long term support-resistance levels and useful in determining if the stock is in a bullish/bearish leg.
SMC Academy [PhenLabs]📊 SMC Academy
Version: PineScript™ v6
📌 Description
The SMC Academy indicator is a comprehensive educational tool designed to demystify Smart Money Concepts (SMC) for traders of all levels. Unlike standard indicators that simply print signals, this script uses a “Learning Phase” system that allows users to toggle between individual concepts—such as Market Structure, Liquidity, Imbalances, and Order Blocks—or view them all simultaneously. It lets you focus on one piece of the puzzle at a time.
🚀 Points of Innovation
Progressive Learning Modes: Toggle between 5 distinct phases to master concepts individually before using the Full Strategy Mode.
Educational Tooltips: Hover over labels to read detailed explanations of why a BOS, MSS, or Liquidity zone was identified.
Smart Filtering: Uses ATR and Volume integration to filter out low-quality Fair Value Gaps and weak Order Blocks.
HTF Dashboard: A built-in panel analyzes Higher Timeframe (4H) data to ensure you are trading in alignment with the broader trend.
🔧 Core Components
Market Structure Engine: Automatically detects Swing Highs and Lows to map out market direction using configurable swing lengths.
Liquidity Manager: Identifies unmitigated swing points that serve as Buy-Side (BSL) and Sell-Side (SSL) liquidity magnets.
Imbalance Detector: Highlights Fair Value Gaps (FVG) where price inefficiencies exist, using ATR thresholds to ignore noise.
Order Block Identifier: Locates the specific candles responsible for structure breaks, validated by volume analysis.
🔥 Key Features
Break of Structure (BOS): Automatically marks trend continuation signals with solid lines and color-coded labels.
Market Structure Shift (MSS): Identifies potential trend reversals when significant swing points are breached.
Dashboard Context: Displays the current trend direction and the 4H context directly on your chart.
Custom Alerts: Built-in alert conditions for structure breaks and new Order Blocks allow for automated tracking.
🎨 Visualization
Structure Lines: Solid lines indicate confirmed breaks (Green for Bullish, Red for Bearish).
Liquidity Zones: Dotted lines extending rightward indicate resting liquidity levels that price may target.
FVG Boxes: Shaded boxes highlight imbalance zones, automatically extending for a user-defined number of bars.
Dashboard: A clean, non-intrusive table in the top-right corner displays trend status and active mode.
📖 Usage Guidelines
Setting Categories
Learning Mode: Select from ‘1. Market Structure’ through ‘5. Full Strategy Mode’ to filter what appears on the chart.
Swing Detection Length: Default (5). Determines the sensitivity of the swing high/low detection.
Structure Break Type: Options (Close/Wick). Choose whether a candle close or just a wick is required to confirm a break.
Min FVG Size: Default (0.5 ATR). Filters out gaps smaller than this multiplier to reduce noise.
Filter Weak OBs by Volume: Default (True). Only highlights Order Blocks where volume exceeds the 20-period average.
✅ Best Use Cases
Educational Study: Isolate “Phase 1: Market Structure” to practice identifying trend changes without distraction.
Trend Following: Use “Phase 3: Imbalances” to find entry points within an established trend.
Reversal Trading: Combine “Phase 2: Liquidity” and “Phase 4: Order Blocks” to catch reversals at key levels.
⚠️ Limitations
Subjectivity: Market structure can be interpreted differently depending on the swing length settings used.
Ranging Markets: Like all trend-following concepts, false BOS/MSS signals may generate during choppy, sideways price action.
Repainting: While the signals are non-repainting once confirmed, the live candle may flash a signal before the close if “Close” mode is selected.
💡 What Makes This Unique
Interactive Learning: The inclusion of tooltip explanations transforms this from a simple tool into an active mentor.
Phase-Based Workflow: The ability to strip the chart back to basics at the click of a button is unique to the PhenLabs ecosystem.
🔬 How It Works
Swing Analysis: The script calculates pivot highs and lows based on your length input to define the structural landscape.
Break Validation: It checks if price crosses these pivot points to trigger BOS (Continuation) or MSS (Reversal) logic.
Volume Confirmation: For Order Blocks, it looks back inside the swing leg to find the specific candle responsible for the move, verifying it has significant volume.
💡 Note:
For the best experience, start in Phase 1 to calibrate your Swing Detection Length to the specific volatility of the asset you are trading before enabling Full Strategy Mode.
Range Trading StrategyOVERVIEW
The Range Trading Strategy is a systematic trading approach that identifies price ranges
from higher timeframe candles or trading sessions, tracks pivot points, and generates
trading signals when range extremes are mitigated and confirmed by pivot levels.
CORE CONCEPT
The strategy is based on the principle that when a candle (or session) closes within the
range of the previous candle (or session), that previous candle becomes a "range" with
identifiable high and low extremes. When price breaks through these extremes, it creates
trading opportunities that are confirmed by pivot levels.
RANGE DETECTION MODES
1. HTF (Higher Timeframe) Mode:
Automatically selects a higher timeframe based on the current chart timeframe
Uses request.security() to fetch HTF candle data
Range is created when an HTF candle closes within the previous HTF candle's range
The previous HTF candle's high and low become the range extremes
2. Sessions Mode:
- Divides the trading day into 4 sessions (UTC):
* Session 1: 00:00 - 06:00 (6 hours)
* Session 2: 06:00 - 12:00 (6 hours)
* Session 3: 12:00 - 20:00 (8 hours)
* Session 4: 20:00 - 00:00 (4 hours, spans midnight)
- Tracks high, low, and close for each session
- Range is created when a session closes within the previous session's range
- The previous session's high and low become the range extremes
PIVOT DETECTION
Pivots are detected based on candle color changes (bullish/bearish transitions):
1. Pivot Low:
Created when a bullish candle appears after a bearish candle
Pivot low = minimum of the current candle's low and previous candle's low
The pivot bar is the actual bar where the low was formed (current or previous bar)
2. Pivot High:
Created when a bearish candle appears after a bullish candle
Pivot high = maximum of the current candle's high and previous candle's high
The pivot bar is the actual bar where the high was formed (current or previous bar)
IMPORTANT: There is always only ONE active pivot high and ONE active pivot low at any
given time. When a new pivot is created, it replaces the previous one.
RANGE CREATION
A range is created when:
(HTF Mode) An HTF candle closes within the previous HTF candle's range AND a new HTF
candle has just started
(Sessions Mode) A session closes within the previous session's range AND a new session
has just started
Or Range Can Be Created when the Extreme of Another Range Gets Mitigated and We Have a Pivot low Just Above the Range Low or Pivot High just Below the Range High
Range Properties:
rangeHigh: The high extreme of the range
rangeLow: The low extreme of the range
highStartTime: The timestamp when the range high was actually formed (found by looping
backwards through bars)
lowStartTime: The timestamp when the range low was actually formed (found by looping
backwards through bars)
highMitigated / lowMitigated: Flags tracking whether each extreme has been broken
isSpecial: Flag indicating if this is a "special range" (see Special Ranges section)
RANGE MITIGATION
A range extreme is considered "mitigated" when price interacts with it:
High is mitigated when: high >= rangeHigh (any interaction at or above the level)
Low is mitigated when: low <= rangeLow (any interaction at or below the level)
Mitigation can happen:
At the moment of range creation (if price is already beyond the extreme)
At any point after range creation when price touches the extreme
SIGNAL GENERATION
1. Pending Signals:
When a range extreme is mitigated, a pending signal is created:
a) BEARISH Pending Signal:
- Triggered when: rangeHigh is mitigated
- Confirmation Level: Current pivotLow
- Signal is confirmed when: close < pivotLow
- Stop Loss: Current pivotHigh (at time of confirmation)
- Entry: Short position
Signal Confirmation
b) BULLISH Pending Signal:
- Triggered when: rangeLow is mitigated
- Confirmation Level: Current pivotHigh
- Signal is confirmed when: close > pivotHigh
- Stop Loss: Current pivotLow (at time of confirmation)
- Entry: Long position
IMPORTANT: There is only ever ONE pending bearish signal and ONE pending bullish signal
at any given time. When a new pending signal is created, it replaces the previous one
of the same type.
2. Signal Confirmation:
- Bearish: Confirmed when price closes below the pivot low (confirmation level)
- Bullish: Confirmed when price closes above the pivot high (confirmation level)
- Upon confirmation, a trade is entered immediately
- The confirmation line is drawn from the pivot bar to the confirmation bar
TRADE EXECUTION
When a signal is confirmed:
1. Position Management:
- Any existing position in the opposite direction is closed first
- Then the new position is entered
2. Stop Loss:
- Bearish (Short): Stop at pivotHigh
- Bullish (Long): Stop at pivotLow
3. Take Profit:
- Calculated using Risk:Reward Ratio (default 2:1)
- Risk = Distance from entry to stop loss
- Target = Entry ± (Risk × R:R Ratio)
- Can be disabled with "Stop Loss Only" toggle
4. Trade Comments:
- "Range Bear" for short trades
- "Range Bull" for long trades
SPECIAL RANGES
Special ranges are created when:
- A range high is mitigated AND the current pivotHigh is below the range high
- A range low is mitigated AND the current pivotLow is above the range low
In these cases:
- The pivot value is stored in an array (storedPivotHighs or storedPivotLows)
- A "special range" is created with only ONE extreme:
* If pivotHigh < rangeHigh: Creates a range with rangeHigh = pivotLow, rangeLow = na
* If pivotLow > rangeLow: Creates a range with rangeLow = pivotHigh, rangeHigh = na
- Special ranges can generate signals just like normal ranges
- If a special range is mitigated on the creation bar or the next bar, it is removed
entirely without generating signals (prevents false signals)
Special Ranges
REVERSE ON STOP LOSS
When enabled, if a stop loss is hit, the strategy automatically opens a trade in the
opposite direction:
1. Long Stop Loss Hit:
- Detects when: position_size > 0 AND position_size <= 0 AND low <= longStopLoss
- Action: Opens a SHORT position
- Stop Loss: Current pivotHigh
- Trade Comment: "Reverse on Stop"
2. Short Stop Loss Hit:
- Detects when: position_size < 0 AND position_size >= 0 AND high >= shortStopLoss
- Action: Opens a LONG position
- Stop Loss: Current pivotLow
- Trade Comment: "Reverse on Stop"
The reverse trade uses the same R:R ratio and respects the "Stop Loss Only" setting.
VISUAL ELEMENTS
1. Range Lines:
- Drawn from the time when the extreme was formed to the mitigation point (or current
time if not mitigated)
- High lines: Blue (or mitigated color if mitigated)
- Low lines: Red (or mitigated color if mitigated)
- Style: SOLID
- Width: 1
2. Confirmation Lines:
- Drawn when a signal is confirmed
- Extends from the pivot bar to the confirmation bar
- Bearish: Red, solid line
- Bullish: Green, solid line
- Width: 1
- Can be toggled on/off
STRATEGY SETTINGS
1. Range Detection Mode:
- HTF: Uses higher timeframe candles
- Sessions: Uses trading session boundaries
2. Auto HTF:
- Automatically selects HTF based on current chart timeframe
- Can be disabled to use manual HTF selection
3. Risk:Reward Ratio:
- Default: 2.0 (2:1)
- Minimum: 0.5
- Step: 0.5
4. Stop Loss Only:
- When enabled: Trades only have stop loss (no take profit)
- Trades close on stop loss or when opposite signal confirms
5. Reverse on Stop Loss:
- When enabled: Hitting a stop loss opens opposite trade with stop at opposing pivot
6. Max Ranges to Display:
- Limits the number of ranges kept in memory
- Oldest ranges are purged when limit is exceeded
KEY FEATURES
1. Dynamic Pivot Tracking:
- Pivots update on every candle color change
- Always maintains one high and one low pivot
2. Range Lifecycle:
- Ranges are created when price closes within previous range
- Ranges are tracked until mitigated
- Mitigation creates pending signals
- Signals are confirmed by pivot levels
3. Signal Priority:
- Only one pending signal of each type at a time
- New signals replace old ones
- Confirmation happens on close of bar
4. Position Management:
- Closes opposite positions before entering new trades
- Tracks stop loss levels for reverse functionality
- Respects pyramiding = 1 (only one position per direction)
5. Time-Based Drawing:
- Uses time coordinates instead of bar indices for line drawing
- Prevents "too far from current bar" errors
- Lines can extend to any historical point
USAGE NOTES
- Best suited for trending and ranging markets
- Works on any timeframe, but HTF mode adapts automatically
- Sessions mode is ideal for intraday trading
- Pivot detection requires clear candle color changes
- Range detection requires price to close within previous range
- Signals are generated on bar close, not intra-bar
The strategy combines range identification, pivot tracking, and signal confirmation to
create a systematic approach to trading breakouts and reversals based on price structure, past performance does not in any way predict future performance
Camarilla Pivot Plays (Lite) [BruzX]█ OVERVIEW
This indicator implements the Camarilla Pivot Points levels and a system for suggesting particular plays. It only 3rd, 4th, and 6th levels, as these are the only ones used by the system. It also optionally shows the Central Pivot Range, which is in fact between S2 and R2. In total, there are 12 possible plays, grouped into two groups of six. The algorithm evaluates in real-time which plays fulfil their precondition and shows the candidate plays. The user must then decide if and when to take the play.
█ CREDITS
The Camarilla pivot plays are defined in a strategy developed by Thor Young, and the whole system is explained in his book "A Complete Day Trading System". This description is self-sufficient for effective use.
█ FEATURES
Display the 3rd, 4th and 6th Camarilla pivot levels
Works for stocks, futures, indices, forex and crypto
Automatically switches between RTH and ETH data based on criteria defined by the system.
Option to force RTH/ETH data and force a close price to be used in the calculation.
Preconditions for the plays can be toggled on/off
Works correctly on both RTH and ETH charts
Well-documented options tooltips
Well-documented and high-quality open-source code for those who are interested
█ HOW TO USE
The defaults work well; at a minimum, just add the indicator and watch the plays being called. For US futures, you will probably want to chat the "Timezone for sessions" to New York and the regular session times to 09:30 - 16:00. The following diagram shows its key features.
By default, the indicator draws plays 1 days back; this can be changed up to 20 days. The labels can be shifted left/right using the "label offset" option to avoid overlapping with other labels in this indicator or those of another indicator.
An information box at the top-right of the chart shows:
The data currently in use for the main pivots. This can switch in the pre-market if the H/L range exceeds the previous day's H/L, and if it does, you will see that switch at the time that it happens
Whether the current day's pivots are in a higher or lower range compared to the previous day's.
The width of the pivots compared to the previous day
The current candidate plays fulfilling preconditions. You then need to watch the price action to decide whether to take the play.
The resistance pivots are all drawn in the same colour (red by default), as are the support pivots (green by default). You can change the resistance and support colours, but it is not possible to have different colours for different levels of the same kind.
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator is focused around daily Camarilla pivots and evaluates the preconditions for 12 possible plays: 6 when in a higher range, 6 when in a lower range. The plays are labelled by two letters—the first indicates the range, the second indicates the play—as shown in this diagram:
The pivots can be calculated using only RTH (Regular Trading Hours) data, or ETH (Extended Trading Hours) data, which includes the pre-market and post-market. The indicator implements logic to automatically choose the correct data, based on the rules defined by the strategy. This is user-overridable. With the default options, ETH will be used when the H/L range in the previous day's post-market or current day's pre-market exceeds that of the previous day's regular market. In auto mode, the chosen pivots are considered the main pivots for that day and are the ones used for play evaluation. The "other" pivots can also be shown—"other" here meaning using ETH data when the main pivots use RTH data, and vice versa.
The plays must fulfil a set of preconditions. There are preconditions for valid region and range, price sweeps into levels, correct pivot width, opening position, price action, and whether neutral range plays and premarket plays are enabled. When all the preconditions are fulfilled, the play will be shown as a candidate.
█ NOTE FOR FUTURES
Futures don't officially have a pre-market or post-market like equities. Let's take ES on CME as an example. It trades from 18:00 ET Sunday to 17:00 Friday (ET), with a daily pause between 17:00 and 18:00 ET. However, most of the trading activity is done between 09:30 and 16:00, which you can tell from the volume spikes at those times, and this coincides with NYSE/NASDAQ regular hours. So we define a pseudo-pre-market from 18:00 the previous day to 09:30 on the current day, then a pseudo-regular market from 08:30 to 16:00, then a pseudo-post-market from 16:00 to 17:00. The indicator then works exactly the same as with equities—all the options behave the same, just with different session times defined for the pre-, regular, and post-market, with "RTH" meaning just the regular market and "ETH" meaning all three.
█ LIMITATIONS
The pivots are very close to those shown in DAS Trader Pro. They are not to-the-cent exact, but within a few cents. The reasons are:
TradingView provides free real-time data from CBOE One, not full exchange data (you can pay for this though, and it's not expensive), and
the close/high/low are taken from the intraday timeframe you are currently viewing, not daily data—which are very close, but often not exactly the same. For example, the high on the daily timeframe may differ slightly from the daily high you'll see on an intraday timeframe.
Despite these caveats, occasionally large spikes will be seem in one platform and not the other (even with paid data), or the spikes will reach significantly difference prices. Where these spikes create the daily high or low, this can cause significantly different pivots levels. The more traded the stock is, the less the difference tends to be. Highly traded stocks are usually within a few cents (but even they occasionally have large differences in spikes). There is nothing that can be done about this.
The 6th Camarilla level does not have a standard definition and may not match the level shown on other platforms. It does match the definition used by DAS Trader Pro.
Replay mode for stocks does not work correctly. This is due to some important Pine Script variables provided by the TradingView platform and used by the script not being assigned correct values in replay mode. Futures do not use these variables, so they should work in replay mode.
The indicator is an intraday indicator (despite also being able to show weekly and monthly pivots on an intraday chart). It deactivates on a daily timeframe and higher. Sub-minute timeframes are also not supported.
The indicator was developed and tested for US/European stocks, US futures and EURUSD forex and BTCUSD. It should work as intended for stocks and futures in different countries, and for all forex and crypto, but this is tested as much as the security it was developed for.
█ DISCLAIMER
This indicator is provided for information only and should not be used in isolation without a good understand of the system and without considering other factors. You should not take trades using real money based solely on what this indicator says. Any trades you take are entirely at your own risk.
Confluence Zone BuilderWhat It Does
The Confluence Zone Builder is a technical analysis indicator that identifies high-probability price levels by detecting where multiple technical factors align (converge) at the same price area. These "confluence zones" represent levels where price is statistically more likely to react - either bouncing (support/resistance) or breaking through (breakout targets).
How It Works
1. Multi-Factor Analysis
The indicator calculates key technical levels from various sources:
Fibonacci Retracements (23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, 78.6%) - Support/resistance levels based on recent price swings
Fibonacci Extensions (127.2%, 141.4%, 161.8%, 200%, 261.8%) - Breakout targets beyond the current range (both bullish and bearish)
Pivot Points (Classic pivots: P, R1-R3, S1-S3) - Daily/weekly reference points traders watch
Moving Averages (EMA 20, 50 and SMA 100, 200) - Dynamic support/resistance that institutions track
VWAP - Volume-weighted average price, popular among institutional traders
Psychological Levels - Round numbers that attract orders
Previous Period Levels - Prior day/week high, low, and close
2. Proximity Clustering
When multiple factors fall within a defined proximity range (default 0.5%), they're grouped together into a single "confluence zone." This prevents cluttering the chart with dozens of individual lines.
3. Weighted Scoring System
Not all technical factors are equal. The indicator assigns importance weights:
Key Fibonacci levels (61.8%) and major MAs (200, 50) get higher weights (2.0-2.5x)
Pivot points and VWAP get medium weights (1.5x)
Minor factors get lower weights (1.0x)
The total score reflects both the number of factors and their importance.
4. Historical Validation
The indicator analyzes the last 50 bars (customizable) to track:
Touches: How many times price reached each zone
Rejections: Times price bounced off the zone (✅)
Breaks: Times price broke through the zone (❌)
Win Rate: Percentage of times the zone held (rejections ÷ touches)
5. Dynamic Adjustment
Zones aren't static - they adapt based on how price interacts with them:
Strengthens (+0.5 per rejection, +0.2 per touch): Zones that repeatedly hold become more important
Weakens (-0.8 per break): Zones that fail to hold lose credibility
Visual Indicators:
Thick solid lines = Strong zones (more rejections than breaks)
Dashed lines = Weak zones (more breaks than rejections)
Color-coded by score: Blue (low), Yellow (medium), Red (high)
What You Gain From Using It
For Support/Resistance Trading:
High-probability entries: Enter at zones with high confluence scores and strong historical win rates
Better risk management: Place stops beyond strong confluence zones that are likely to hold
Reduced false signals: Multi-factor confirmation reduces reliance on single indicators
For Breakout Trading:
Target identification: Fibonacci extensions provide profit targets beyond current ranges
Breakout confirmation: Weak zones (dashed lines, low win rates) are easier to break - ideal for breakout entries
False breakout avoidance: Strong zones (thick lines, high win rates) require more confirmation before entering
For Position Management:
Exit planning: Take profits at high-confluence zones ahead
Stop placement: Use strong zones as logical stop-loss levels
Trade filtering: Higher probability setups occur at stronger zones
Key Advantages:
Objective confluence detection - No manual line drawing needed
Data-driven validation - Historical performance shows which zones actually matter
Adaptive intelligence - Zones strengthen/weaken based on real price action
Clean visualization - Top zones only, with compact labels showing score and factors
Customizable - Adjust weights, components, and thresholds to your trading style
Bottom Line:
Instead of guessing which technical level matters most, this indicator does the heavy lifting - analyzing multiple factors, validating them historically, and highlighting only the zones where price is most likely to react. It's like having confluence analysis automated with statistical backing.
Trend Pivots Profile [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
The Trend Pivots Profile is a dynamic volume profile tool that builds profiles around pivot points to reveal where liquidity accumulates during trend shifts. When the market is in an uptrend , the indicator generates profiles at low pivots . In a downtrend , it builds them at high pivots . Each profile is constructed using lower timeframe volume data for higher resolution, making it highly precise even in limited space. A colored trendline helps traders instantly recognize the prevailing trend and anticipate which type of profile (bullish or bearish) will form.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Pivot-Driven Profiles : Profiles are only created when a new pivot forms, aligning liquidity analysis with market structure shifts.
Trend-Contextual : Profiles form at low pivots in uptrends and at high pivots in downtrends.
Lower Timeframe Data : Volume and close values are pulled from smaller timeframes to provide detailed, high-resolution profiles inside larger pivot windows.
Adaptive Bin Sizing : Bin size is automatically calculated relative to ATR, ensuring consistent precision across different markets and volatility conditions.
Point of Control (PoC) : The highest-volume level within each profile is marked with a PoC line that extends until the next pivot forms.
Trendline Visualization : A wide, semi-transparent line follows the rolling average of highs and lows, colored blue in uptrends and orange in downtrends.
🔵 FEATURES
Pivot Length Control : Adjust how far back the script looks to detect pivots (e.g., length 5 → profiles cover 10 bars after pivot).
Pivot Profile toggle :
On → draw the filled pivot profile + PoC + pivot label.
Off → hide profiles; show only PoC level (clean S/R mode).
Trend Length Filter : Smooths trendline detection to ensure reliable up/down bias.
Precise Volume Distribution : Volume is aggregated into bins, creating a smooth volume curve around the pivot range.
PoC Extension : Automatically extends the most active price level until a new pivot is confirmed.
Profile Visualization : Profiles appear as filled shapes anchored at the pivot candle, colored based on trend.
Trendline Overlay : Thick, semi-transparent trendline provides visual guidance on directional bias.
Automatic Cleanup : Old profiles are deleted once they exceed the chart’s capacity (default 25 stored profiles).
🔵 HOW TO USE
Spotting Trend Liquidity : In an uptrend, monitor profiles at low pivots to see where buyers concentrated. In downtrends, use high-pivot profiles to spot sell-side pressure.
Watch the PoC : The PoC line highlights the strongest traded level of the pivot structure—expect reactions when price retests it.
Anticipate Trend Continuation/Reversal : Use the trendline (blue = bullish, orange = bearish) together with pivot profiles to forecast directional momentum.
Combine with HTF Context : Overlay with higher timeframe structure (order blocks, liquidity zones, or FVGs) for confluence.
Fine-Tune with Inputs : Adjust Pivot Length for sensitivity and Trend Length for smoother or faster trend shifts.
🔵 CONCLUSION
The Trend Pivots Profile blends pivot-based structure with precise volume profiling. By dynamically plotting profiles on pivots aligned with the prevailing trend, highlighting PoCs, and overlaying a directional trendline, it equips traders with a clear view of liquidity clusters and directional momentum—ideal for anticipating reactions, pullbacks, or breakouts.
Channels by TradingConTotoThis indicator plots clear and minimalistic High (H) and Low (L) pivot points only within the selected trading session (e.g., 10:00–12:00).
During the active session, the background is shaded for easy visual reference, and pivot labels alternate automatically — meaning no consecutive H or L points appear in a row. This makes it simple to identify real swing changes within a specific session.
⚙️ Features
Detects and labels pivots only during the chosen time range.
Alternating logic prevents consecutive highs or lows (H → L → H → L).
Clean session background highlight for visual clarity.
Fully customizable parameters (session time, sensitivity, colors, etc.).
Ideal for intraday traders, scalpers, and structure-based strategies.
💡 Suggested Use
Perfect for traders who focus on specific market sessions (e.g., New York, London, or custom hours).
The alternating pivot logic helps visualize market swings and structural shifts without visual clutter, making it an excellent companion for price action analysis.
OSAMA RASMIHow this script works?
- it finds and keeps Pivot Points
- when it found a new Pivot Point it clears older S/R channels then;
- for each pivot point it searches all pivot points in its own channel with dynamic width
- while creating the S/R channel it calculates its strength
- then sorts all S/R channels by strength
- it shows the strongest S/R channels, before doing this it checks old location in the list and adjust them for better visibility
- if any S/R channel was broken on last move then it gives alert and put shape below/above the candle
- The colors of the S/R channels are adjusted automatically

Pivot and Wick Boxes with Break Signals█ OVERVIEW
This Pine Script® indicator draws support and resistance levels based on high and low pivot points and the wicks of pivot candles. When the price breaks these levels, breakout signals are generated, with an optional volume filter for greater precision. The indicator is fully customizable, allowing users to adjust box styles, pivot length, and signal settings.
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator relies on several key elements to identify and visualize important price levels and trading signals:
Pivot Identification
High and low pivots are detected using the ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow functions with a configurable pivot length. Boxes are drawn based on the pivot level and the wick of the pivot candle (top for high pivots, bottom for low pivots).
List of Features
1 — High and Low Pivot Boxes: The indicator draws boxes based on high pivot candles (red) and low pivot candles (green) and their wicks, with options to customize colors, border styles, and background gradient. Boxes are limited to 500 bars back, meaning support and resistance levels older than 500 candles are not displayed to maintain chart clarity.
2 — Breakout Signals: When the price closes above the upper edge of a high pivot box, a breakout signal is generated (green triangle below the bar). When the price closes below the lower edge of a low pivot box, a breakout signal is generated (red triangle above the bar).
Signals can be filtered using volume, requiring the volume at the breakout to exceed the average volume multiplied by a configurable multiplier.
3 — Box Management: The indicator limits the number of displayed boxes (default is 15 for high pivots and 15 for low pivots), removing the oldest boxes when the limit is reached. Boxes older than 500 bars are automatically removed.
Volume Filtering
An optional volume filter allows users to require breakout signals to be confirmed by volume exceeding the moving average of volume (calculated over a selected period, default is 20 days).
█ OTHER SECTIONS
FEATURES
• Show High/Low Pivot Boxes: Enables or disables the display of boxes for high and low pivots.
• Pivot Length: Specifies the number of bars back and forward for detecting pivots (default is 5).
• Max Boxes: Sets the maximum number of boxes for high and low pivots (default is 15).
• Volume Filter: Enables a volume filter for breakout signals, with a configurable multiplier and average period.
• Box Style: Allows customization of border color, background gradient, border width, and border style (solid, dashed, dotted).
HOW TO USE
1 — Add the indicator to your TradingView chart by selecting “Pivot and Wick Boxes with Break Signals” from the indicators list.
2 — Configure the settings in the indicator’s dialog window, adjusting pivot length, maximum number of boxes, colors, and style.
3 — Enable the volume filter if you want signals to be confirmed by high volume.
4 — Monitor breakout signals (green triangles below bars for upward breakouts, red triangles above bars for downward breakouts) on the chart.
LIMITATIONS
• New pivots are detected with a delay equal to the set pivot length. A lower pivot length value results in faster pivot detection but produces pivots with less significance as support or resistance levels compared to those generated with a longer value.
• Breakout signals may produce false signals in volatile market conditions, especially without the volume filter.
• Boxes are limited to 500 bars back, which may exclude older pivots on long-term charts.
Auto-Calculated Pivot Line/Zone (Based on Time Range)Automatically Calculated Pivot Line/Zone
Harness the power of precision with this Custom Time Range Average Line indicator—designed to pinpoint key equilibrium and pivot levels within consolidation zones after a breakout. Select any start and end time to capture the critical price action shaping the market structure between swings, and calculate the true average price using your choice of open, close, high, low, or midpoint.
Once the defined period concludes, the indicator freezes the average and extends it forward as a clear horizontal ray, acting as a powerful reference for fair value and market balance. This dynamic line shines brightest within consolidation phases, helping traders identify pivot points and equilibrium zones that often serve as magnets for price after a breakout.
Customize the line width to suit your style—use a thinner line width input for a precise single average line, or increase the width to visually represent a broader range or zone. Fully adjustable line color and thickness options ensure this tool integrates seamlessly into any chart setup.
Elevate your trading edge by visualizing the hidden balance points between market swings—turning consolidation chaos into clear, strategic opportunities!
Pullback Pro Dow Strategy v7 (ADX Filter)
### **Strategy Description (For TradingView)**
#### **Title:** Pullback Pro: Dow Theory & ADX Strategy
---
#### **1. Summary**
This strategy is designed to identify and trade pullbacks within an established trend, based on the core principles of Dow Theory. It uses market structure (pivot highs and lows) to determine the trend direction and an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to pinpoint pullback entry opportunities.
To enhance trade quality and avoid ranging markets, an ADX (Average Directional Index) filter is integrated to ensure that entries are only taken when the trend has sufficient momentum.
---
#### **2. Core Logic: How It Works**
The strategy's logic is broken down into three main steps:
**Step 1: Trend Determination (Dow Theory)**
* The primary trend is identified by analyzing recent pivot points.
* An **Uptrend** is confirmed when the script detects a pattern of higher highs and higher lows (HH/HL).
* A **Downtrend** is confirmed by a pattern of lower highs and lower lows (LH/LL).
* If neither pattern is present, the strategy considers the market to be in a range and will not seek trades.
**Step 2: Entry Signal (Pullback to EMA)**
* Once a clear trend is established, the strategy waits for a price correction.
* **Long Entry:** In a confirmed uptrend, a long position is initiated when the price pulls back and crosses *under* the specified EMA.
* **Short Entry:** In a confirmed downtrend, a short position is initiated when the price rallies and crosses *over* the EMA.
**Step 3: Confirmation & Risk Management**
* **ADX Filter:** To ensure the trend is strong enough to trade, an entry signal is only validated if the ADX value is above a user-defined threshold (e.g., 25). This helps filter out weak signals during choppy or consolidating markets.
* **Stop Loss:** The initial Stop Loss is automatically and logically placed at the last market structure point:
* For long trades, it's placed at the `lastPivotLow`.
* For short trades, it's placed at the `lastPivotHigh`.
* **Take Profit:** Two Take Profit levels are calculated based on user-defined Risk-to-Reward (R:R) ratios. The strategy allows for partial profit-taking at the first target (TP1), moving the remainder of the position to the second target (TP2).
---
#### **3. Input Settings Explained**
**① Dow Theory Settings**
* **Pivot Lookback Period:** Determines the sensitivity for detecting pivot highs and lows. A smaller number makes it more sensitive to recent price swings; a larger number focuses on more significant, longer-term pivots.
**② Entry Logic (Pullback)**
* **Pullback EMA Length:** Sets the period for the Exponential Moving Average used to identify pullback entries.
**③ Risk & Exit Management**
* **Take Profit 1 R:R:** Sets the Risk-to-Reward ratio for the first take-profit target.
* **Take Profit 1 (%):** The percentage of the position to be closed when TP1 is hit.
* **Take Profit 2 R:R:** Sets the Risk-to-Reward ratio for the final take-profit target.
**④ Filters**
* **Use ADX Trend Filter:** A master switch to enable or disable the ADX filter.
* **ADX Length:** The lookback period for the ADX calculation.
* **ADX Threshold:** The minimum ADX value required to confirm a trade signal. Trades will only be placed if the ADX is above this level.
---
#### **4. Best Practices & Recommendations**
* This is a trend-following system. It is designed to perform best in markets that exhibit clear, sustained trending behavior.
* It may underperform in choppy, sideways, or strongly ranging markets. The ADX filter is designed to help mitigate this, but no filter is perfect.
* **Crucially, you must backtest this strategy thoroughly** on your preferred financial instrument and timeframe before considering any live application.
* Experiment with the `Pivot Lookback Period`, `Pullback EMA Length`, and `ADX Threshold` to optimize performance for a specific market's characteristics.

HMA Swing Levels [BigBeluga]An advanced swing structure and trend-following tool built on Hull Moving Average logic, designed to detect major reversals and track dynamic support/resistance zones.
This indicator analyzes price swings using pivot highs/lows and a smoothed HMA trend baseline. It highlights key reversal levels and keeps them active until breached, giving traders a clear visual framework for price structure and trend alignment. The pivots are calculated in real-time using non-lagging logic, making them highly responsive to market conditions.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Combines a fast-reacting Hull Moving Average (HMA) with pivot logic to capture precise directional changes.
Detects non-lagging reversal highs and lows when pivot points form and the HMA direction flips.
Projects these reversal levels forward as horizontal support/resistance lines until broken by price.
Active trend is shown with a step-style trail line that reflects HMA bias over time.
🔵 FEATURES
Swing Level Detection:
Identifies high/low reversals when trend direction changes and plots horizontal zones.
Non-lagging logic of swing points detection:
if h == high and high < h and change > 0
// Detected Swing High
if l == low and low > l and change < 0
// Detected Swing Low
Persistent Support & Resistance Lines:
Each detected swing high or low is extended forward until price invalidates the level. Dotted style is applied once breached.
Color-Coded Trend Trail:
Displays a stepped trend trail using HMA slope: lime = uptrend, blue = downtrend.
Automatic Labeling:
Each reversal level is labeled with its price for clear reference.
Age-Based Line Thickness:
Every level increases in thickness every 250 bars. The longer the level lasts, the stronger it is.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use green (support) and blue (resistance) levels to frame key reaction zones.
Trade with the trend defined by the trail color: lime for bullish bias, blue for bearish.
Explore where buy or sell orders are stacked
Look for breaks of swing lines to anticipate trend shifts or breakout setups.
Adjust the "Trend Change" input to tune the sensitivity of swing detection.
Adjust the "SwingLevels" input to define how far back to search for valid pivots.
🔵 CONCLUSION
HMA Swing Levels offers a hybrid approach to structural and trend-based trading. With automated non-lagging swing detection, persistent support/resistance tracking, and intuitive HMA-based trend coloring, it provides a powerful visual system for discretionary and systematic traders alike.
Gartley 222 Strategy (Final Full Version)Gartley 222 Strategy (Bullish Pattern) — Repaint-Free, Backtestable
This strategy is based on the classic Gartley 222 harmonic pattern, originally introduced by H.M. Gartley in Profits in the Stock Market (1935). It identifies potential bullish reversal zones by detecting a five-point retracement structure (X-A-B-C-D) using pivot points and Fibonacci confluence.
🧠 Strategy Logic:
Detects valid pivot-based X, A, B, C points
Validates Gartley ratios:
AB = 61.8%–78.6% of XA
CD = 78.6%–88.6% of AB
Enters long at point D only after pivot confirmation (non-repainting)
Exits at 127% Fibonacci extension of XA or on stop loss
🔍 Features:
✅ Repaint-free and fully backtestable
✅ Visual X–A–B–C–D pattern lines on chart
✅ Customizable pivot length, risk, and reward ratios
✅ Alerts for real-time Gartley Buy pattern completion
Ideal for swing traders using 4H or Daily timeframes on trending instruments like NIFTY, BANKNIFTY, or major stocks.
Multi-Timeframe S/R & Breakout Projection1) What This Script Does
Collects S/R levels from the 15-minute and 1-hour timeframes, using each timeframe’s pivot detection.
Sorts those pivot-based levels by their distance from the current price, so you see the nearest levels first.
Draws up to a user-defined number of those levels as horizontal rays on the current chart.
Checks breakouts at the nearest S/R line (the one with the smallest distance from price):
Real Breakout: price breaks above a level and sustains above it for the specified number of bars.
False Breakout: price breaks above but quickly closes back below within the specified lookback.
On confirmation of a real or false breakout, that S/R line changes color to green if price is going higher, or red if price is going lower.
Displays a small table in the corner with:
Daily Trend: bullish or bearish, using an SMA on a 30-minute timeframe.
Sentiment: bullish or bearish, using RSI on the same 30-minute timeframe.
2) How It Works
Multi-Timeframe Pivot Detection
The script uses request.security() to fetch pivot highs/lows from two higher timeframes (15m and 60m).
It collects up to a user-specified number of these pivots (numRecent) from each TF.
Sorting & Plotting S/R Lines
Once pivot values are gathered, the script calculates their “distance” from current price.
It sorts them so that the S/R lines drawn on your chart are the nearest ones first.
Each line is drawn with a color and style you can customize:
srRayColor sets the overall color (e.g. yellow).
srRayStyleOptions can be Solid, Dashed, or Dotted.
Breakout Determination
After drawing the lines, the script looks at the nearest line and applies two specialized checks (f_isFalseBreakout & f_isRealBreakout):
A real breakout occurs if price closes above (or below) and remains on that side for breakLook bars.
A false breakout occurs if price closes above (or below) but quickly returns.
When a breakout is confirmed, that nearest line changes color to:
Green if price is ultimately going up,
Red if price is going down.
Daily Trend & Sentiment Table
A small table in the bottom-right corner shows:
Daily Trend: uses a 30-minute SMA to see if your price is above/below on that timeframe.
Sentiment: uses the RSI (also on 30m). A value over 50 suggests bullish sentiment; under 50 suggests bearish.
3) How to Use It
Timeframes & Pivots
Choose how many pivots (numRecent) from each TF to fetch (up to 10 total). A higher number means you’ll see more historical S/R lines.
Customize pivotLeft & pivotRight for how “wide” the pivot detection is.
Line Customization
In the script’s Inputs tab, you’ll find:
S/R Rays Color – sets the hue of the lines.
S/R Line Style – pick from Solid, Dashed, or Dotted.
Liquidity Lines Color – color for the smaller pivot lines from your chart timeframe’s pivot detection.
Breakout Lookback
breakLook determines how many bars must confirm or refute the breakout. Adjust it based on how conservative or aggressive you want the breakout detection.
Check the Table
In the bottom-right, watch the script’s “Daily Trend” & “Sentiment”. This can be a quick filter for trades:
“Bullish” daily trend with a bullish sentiment is often more favorable for long trades.
Conversely, “Bearish” daily trend & sentiment can confirm short ideas.
Scenarios
If you see a “Real Breakout” label near the line, the script recolors that line green or red, indicating a possible continuous move.
A “False Breakout” label suggests the price has quickly retraced.
4) Originality & Concepts
Multi-Timeframe Approach: Many S/R indicators fetch only local pivot lines; here, we explicitly gather pivot points from two separate TFs (15m & 60m) and project them onto your lower timeframe chart.
Distance-Based Sorting ensures you only see the nearest lines on the chart, preventing clutter from excessive lines.
Breakout Logic used is straightforward but effective: it checks if price truly holds beyond a level (real breakout) or fails to hold (false breakout).
Line Recoloring provides immediate visual feedback on the success or failure of the breakout.
5) Chart Usage
Plot this script on a relatively low timeframe chart (like the 1m, 5m, or 15m) to see the higher timeframe S/R lines.
Select how many S/R lines you want to show, choose the line style, set your pivot detection parameters, then watch for breakouts.
Tips:
Start with fewer lines (maxLevels=3 or 5) so the chart remains clear.
You can experiment with a small breakLook if you want more immediate breakout signals, or a higher breakLook if you need stronger confirmation.
Enjoy using the “Multi-Timeframe S/R & Breakout Projection” script! It simplifies the manual process of spotting higher timeframe pivot lines and helps you quickly assess potential breakouts or fakes on your intraday charts, all while giving you a snapshot of the higher timeframe’s trend and sentiment.
Pivot S/R with Volatility Filter## *📌 Indicator Purpose*
This indicator identifies *key support/resistance levels* using pivot points while also:

## *⚙ SETTINGS – Detailed Breakdown*
### *1️⃣ ◆ General Settings*
#### *🔹 Pivot Length*
- *Purpose:* Determines how many bars to analyze when identifying pivots.
- *Usage:*
- *Low values (5-20):* More pivots, better for scalping.
- *High values (50-200):* Fewer but stronger levels for swing trading.
- *Example:*
- Pivot Length = 50 → Only the most significant highs/lows over 50 bars are marked.
#### *🔹 Test Threshold (Max Test Count)*
- *Purpose:* Sets how many times a level can be tested before being invalidated.
- *Example:*
- Test Threshold = 3 → After 3 tests, the level is ignored (likely to break).
#### *🔹 Zone Range*
- *Purpose:* Creates a price buffer around pivots (±0.001 by default).
- *Why?* Markets often respect "zones" rather than exact prices.
---
### *2️⃣ ◆ Volatility Filter (ATR)*
#### *🔹 ATR Period*
- *Purpose:* Smoothing period for Average True Range calculation.
- *Default:* 14 (standard for volatility measurement).
#### *🔹 ATR Multiplier (Min Move)*
- *Purpose:* Requires pivots to show *meaningful price movement*.
- *Formula:* Min Move = ATR × Multiplier
- *Example:*
- ATR = 10 pips, Multiplier = 1.5 → Only pivots with *15+ pip swings* are valid.
#### *🔹 Show ATR Filter Info*
- Displays current ATR and minimum move requirements on the chart.
---
### *3️⃣ ◆ Volume Analysis*
#### *🔹 Volume Change Threshold (%)*
- *Purpose:* Filters for *unusual volume spikes* (institutional activity).
- *Example:*
- Threshold = 1.2 → Requires *120% of average volume* to confirm signals.
#### *🔹 Volume MA Period*
- *Purpose:* Lookback period for "normal" volume calculation.
---
### *4️⃣ ◆ Wick Analysis*
#### *🔹 Wick Length Threshold (Ratio)*
- *Purpose:* Ensures rejection candles have *long wicks* (strong reversals).
- *Formula:* Wick Ratio = (Upper Wick + Lower Wick) / Candle Range
- *Example:*
- Threshold = 0.6 → 60% of the candle must be wicks.
#### *🔹 Min Wick Size (ATR %)*
- *Purpose:* Filters out small wicks in volatile markets.
- *Example:*
- ATR = 20 pips, MinWickSize = 1% → Wicks under *0.2 pips* are ignored.
---
### *5️⃣ ◆ Display Settings*
- *Show Zones:* Toggles support/resistance shaded areas.
- *Show Traps:* Highlights liquidity traps (▲/▼ symbols).
- *Show Tests:* Displays how many times levels were tested.
- *Zone Transparency:* Adjusts opacity of zones.
---
## *🎯 Practical Use Cases*
### *1️⃣ Liquidity Trap Detection*
- *Scenario:* Price spikes *above resistance* then reverses sharply.
- *Requirements:*
- Long wick (Wick Ratio > 0.6)
- High volume (Volume > Threshold)
- *Outcome:* *Short Trap* signal (▼) appears.
### *2️⃣ Strong Support Level*
- *Scenario:* Price bounces *3 times* from the same level.
- *Indicator Action:*
- Labels the level with test count (3/5 = 3 tests out of max 5).
- Turns *red* if broken (Break Count > 0).

## *💡 Master-Level Usage Techniques*
### *Institutional Order Flow Analysis*
1. *Step 1:* Identify pivot levels with ≥3 tests
2. *Step 2:* Watch for volume contraction near levels
3. *Step 3:* Enter when trap signal appears with:
- Wick > 2×ATR
- Volume > 1.5× average
### *Multi-Timeframe Confirmation*
1. *Higher TF:* Find weekly/monthly pivots
2. *Lower TF:* Use this indicator for precise entries
3. *Example:*
- Weekly pivot at $180
- 4H shows liquidity trap → High-probability reversal
---
## *⚠ Critical Mistakes to Avoid*
1. *Using Default Settings Everywhere*
- Crude oil needs higher ATR multiplier than bonds
2. *Ignoring Trap Context*
- Traps work best at:
- All-time highs/lows
- Major psychological numbers (00/50 levels)
3. *Overlooking Cumulative Volume*
- Check if volume is building over multiple tests
Breakouts with timefilter [LuciTech]Here's the updated description with "colors" replaced by "colours" throughout, maintaining the original structure and content:
Breaking Point 2.0
This is a technical analysis overlay indicator designed to identify breakout levels based on pivot highs and lows, with a focus on price action during customizable time windows using London time (UK). It draws horizontal lines at pivot points and plots signals when price breaks above or below these levels, offering traders a tool to monitor potential bullish or bearish movements. The indicator includes options for time filtering and displaying only the most recent breakout.
Features
The Pivot Breakout Lines display horizontal lines at detected pivot highs (bullish) and pivot lows (bearish), coloured green and red by default. These lines extend from the pivot point to the breakout bar and can be set to show only the latest breakout.
The Breakout Signals mark bullish breakouts with an upward triangle below the bar and bearish breakouts with a downward triangle above the bar, using customizable colours.
The Time Filter restricts signals and lines to a specific window (default: 14:30–15:00 UK), which can be toggled on or off. A shaded background highlights this period when enabled.
How It Works
The indicator calculates pivot highs and lows using a user-defined lookback period (default: 5 bars). When price closes above a pivot high, it triggers a bullish signal and draws a line from the pivot to the breakout bar. When price closes below a pivot low, it triggers a bearish signal with a corresponding line.
If the time filter is active, signals and lines only appear within the specified window. Outside this period—or if the filter is disabled—they appear based solely on price action. The indicator maintains up to three recent pivots in memory, removing older ones as new pivots form.
Alerts are available for both bullish and bearish breakouts, triggered when signals occur.
Settings
Length controls the lookback period for pivot detection (default: 5).
Colours Bull/Bear sets the colours for bullish (default: green) and bearish (default: red) lines and signals.
Show Last Breakout toggles whether only the most recent breakout line and signal are displayed (default: false).
Time Filter enables or disables the time restriction (default: true).
Fill Background toggles a shaded area during the time window (default: true), with a customizable colour.
Time Settings define the start hour/minute and end hour/minute for the filter (default: 14:30–15:00).
Interpretation
The Pivot Breakout Lines highlight levels where price has previously reversed, potentially acting as support or resistance. A breakout above a pivot high may suggest bullish momentum, while a breakout below a pivot low may indicate bearish pressure.
The Breakout Signals provide visual cues for these events, useful for timing entries or exits. When "Show Last Breakout" is enabled, the chart focuses on the most recent signal, reducing clutter.
The Time Filter and background shading help traders concentrate on specific trading sessions, such as high-volatility periods. When disabled, the indicator tracks breakouts across all times.
