Volatility semaphore Support&Resistance multi timeframe [LM]Hello Traders,
I would like to introduce you volatility semaphore support&resistance levels. The idea is the same as the pivot
semaphore script of mine to spot the importance of support&resistence.
It is little bit different than previous script as it uses different line API than previous volatility support& resistance multi timeframe . You have more control over hat and how many lines are rendered(better to use odd numbers in line count setting as it always finds 2 S/R lines). Also this indicator has setup for contol whether you want wicky candles or no by setting percentage of candle body that is accepted.
I hope you will enjoy it.

Resistances and supports based on simplified Volume ProfileThis study tries to highlight support and resistances
as they are defined by
TradingLatino TradingView user
His definition is based on volume peaks
on the official TradingView Volume Profile
indicator that seem rather big on size.
As a bonus it also serves as a rather simple volume profile indicator.
As you can see it only show last blocks volume profile.
It's aimed at BTCUSDT pair and 4h timeframe.
HOW IT WORKS
HOW IT WORKS - Recent Profile Block
It gathers volume from the last 100 Bars
in order to draw the recent profile block
Volume that intersects with current level range
being studied is added to its value.
Additionally the current level price is modified
so that it matches the level price where most
of the volume has concentrated
So you get a pretty accurate way of the volume
while at the same time the level are not stuck
to arbitrary level prices.
HOW IT WORKS - Resistances and Supports
It calculates the level which its price it's
nearer (from below) to the current price level
Resistance is found steping up (from current prive level)
level by level
till you find a level which its value
is higher than the previous level value.
Support is found steping down (from current prive level)
level by level
till you find a level which its value
is higher than the previous level value.
That way you ignore rather small
resistances and support values.
Finally the resistances and supports are drawn next to the recent profile block
so that you can look at them with ease.
If you hover over the label you can double check if you are looking at
current price, resistance or support levels.
SETTINGS
Bars in recent profile block : How many previous period volumes are used to calculate the recent profile block
Row width multiplier : Adjust how big the recent profile block seems to be
Resistances prices number of decimal digits : How many digits is shown at the resistance and support level prices.
WARNING
Please be aware that depending on your security and timeframe you might need to modify the
'Bars in recent profile block' setting so that the study does not timeout.
USAGE
If your strategy calculates take profit
limits on higher resistances based
on volume you could use this indicator
resistance detector
FEEDBACK 1
This is my first volume indicator.
I suppose that each trader
has his own approach on defining
resistances and supports.
I'm interested on knowing if the default way
this resistances and supports are calculated
matches what other traders would have
highlighted manually on the chart.
FEEDBACK 2
I have only used this identifier in BTCUSDT 4h timeframe.
I'm interested to know what needs to be tweaked
in other securities and timeframes.
PINE STUDY TRICK
This study let's you choose the number of decimals the label will use.
CREDITS
I have reused and adapted some code from
'Poor man's volume profile' study
which it's from TradingView IldarAkhmetgaleev user.
I also wanted to thank him for helping me understanding his study.
Volume Cluster Support & ResistanceVolume Cluster Support & Resistance
This indicator identifies potential Support and Resistance (S/R) levels on the chart using Volume-Based Point of Control (POC) Clustering. It offers extensive customization for calculation parameters, display styles, and visualization options, including S/R zones, color gradients, and historical reaction markers.
How It Works
Volume Based S/R:
Scans the specified Clustering Lookback period for "High Volume Bars", defined as bars where volume exceeds the average volume (over Volume Lookback Period) multiplied by the High Volume Threshold Multiplier.
Calculates the Point of Control (POC) for each high-volume bar using hl2.
Clusters these high-volume bar POCs: POCs within a proximity defined by Cluster Proximity (ATR) (Average True Range multiplier) are grouped together.
Filters these clusters, requiring a Min Bars in Cluster to form a valid S/R zone.
(Image showing the indicator being used on the Bitcoin 5min chart)
The center price of valid clusters determines the S/R level. Clusters above the current price become potential Resistance, and those below become potential Support.
Calculates the offset based on the most recent bar included in the cluster.
Level Selection & Display:
The indicator identifies multiple potential S/R levels.
It then selects and displays the top Number of S/R Levels to Display support levels below the current price and resistance levels above the current price.
(Image showing the indicator on the GBP/USD 5min chart)
ATR Usage:
The Average True Range (ta.atr(14)) is used in two key areas:
Determining the proximity threshold for grouping POCs in the 'Volume Based' clustering (clusterProximityAtr).
Calculating the width of the S/R zones when 'Use Zone Visualization' is enabled (zoneAtrMultiplier).
Key Features & Components
Dual Calculation Methods: Choose between Pivot-based S/R or Volume-based POC clustering.
Volume Confirmation: Pivots require volume confirmation; Volume method directly analyzes high-volume bars.
POC Clustering: Groups high-volume areas to identify significant price zones.
Configurable Lookbacks: Adjust periods for volume averaging, pivot detection, and clustering analysis.
Dynamic S/R Display: Shows a configurable number of the most relevant S/R levels relative to the current price.
Optional Zone Visualization: Display levels as filled zones with configurable width (ATR-based), fill transparency, and border transparency. Includes a dashed center line.
Optional Historical Reactions: Mark past price interactions (lows bouncing off support zones, highs rejecting from resistance zones) directly on the chart (Warning: Can significantly impact performance).
Customizable Styling: Control line style (Solid, Dashed, Dotted), width, color (separate for Support & Resistance), and horizontal extension (None, Left, Right, Both).
Price Labels: Toggle visibility of price labels next to each S/R level/zone.
Visual Elements Explained
S/R Lines/Zones: Plotted lines or filled zones representing calculated support and resistance levels. Color-coded for Support (default green) and Resistance (default magenta).
Line/Zone Borders: Appearance controlled by Style settings (Style, Width, Extension). Can have a gradient color effect based on age if enabled.
Zone Fills: Semi-transparent fills for zones (if enabled), with configurable transparency. Fill color matches the border color (including gradient effect if enabled).
Zone Center Line: A thin, dashed line indicating the exact calculated S/R price within a zone.
Price Labels: Text labels showing the exact price of the S/R level.
Historical Reactions: Small dot markers appearing on historical bars where price potentially reacted to a displayed zone (only if Show Historical Reactions is enabled).
Configuration Options
Users can adjust the following parameters in the indicator settings:
Calculation Method: Select "Pivot Based" or "Volume Based".
Volume Zone Settings (Volume Based): Threshold multiplier, clustering lookback, cluster proximity (ATR), minimum bars per cluster.
Display Options: Toggle S/R visibility, price tags, set the number of levels to show.
Volume Settings: Volume lookback period, volume multiplier (for Pivot confirmation).
Style Settings: Line style, width, extension, support/resistance text and line colors, enable gradient coloring, set gradient start/end colors.
Zone Visualization: Enable/disable zones, set zone width (ATR multiplier), fill and border transparency, enable/disable historical reaction markers (performance warning).
Interpretation Notes
This indicator identifies potential areas of support and resistance based on historical price action and volume analysis. These levels are not guaranteed reversal points.
The 'Volume Based' method focuses on areas where significant trading activity occurred, while the 'Pivot Based' method focuses on price turning points confirmed by volume.
Use the displayed levels in conjunction with other technical analysis tools, price action patterns, and risk management strategies.
Be mindful of the performance impact when enabling Show Historical Reactions, especially on longer timeframes or with large lookback periods. The default setting is false for optimal performance.
The max_bars_back setting is optimized for performance; increasing it significantly may slow down chart loading.
Risk Disclaimer
Trading involves significant risk. This indicator is provided for analytical and educational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice or a trading recommendation. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always use sound risk management practices and never trade with capital you cannot afford to lose.
Support and resistance zonesDiscretionary traders often use support and resistance zones that are based on past price action of the instrument traded.
This simple script is used to plot support and resistance zones for a given instrument. The data for the zones themselves has to be determined by the past price action of the instrument and are not based on the provided data by Tradingview.
The zones input has to come as a string. Each zone consists of a string with: ",,<"S"|"R"|"L">,<"Normal"|"Strong">"" The different zone strings have to be seperated by either new line or space.
An example for the zones input looks like:
3919.25,3919.25,L,Normal
3897.50,3906.50,R,Normal
3891.00,3894.50,S,Strong
I appreciate any feedback.
Compression support&resistance [LM]Hello traders,
I would like to present you Compression support&resistance script. The idea behind is to look for areas of price compression(inside bar candles). Basically the S/R lines are created after three candles that are formed in certain pattern and volume conditions. First candle of pattern is usually the most volatile and fist inside bar after volatile candle high and low creates S/R lines in order to look for breakouts or for future bounces of the S/R line. Also by default volume has to be decreasing from candle to candle, although this condition can be controlled by setting.
It has various settings as my other S/R scripts for multi timeframe analysis. The current timeframe uses line API but for multi timeframe I use plot lines. There are two filters. Volume filter for declining volume of the pattern candles and volatility filter which renders line only in case that pattern occurs after some % change has happened within some lookback period.
Credit also for this indicator goes to @berkek as he took time to explain it to me.
Hope you will enjoy it,
Lukas
Active PMI Support/Resistance Levels [EdgeTerminal]The PMI Support & Resistance indicator revolutionizes traditional technical analysis by using Pointwise Mutual Information (PMI) - a statistical measure from information theory - to objectively identify support and resistance levels. Unlike conventional methods that rely on visual pattern recognition, this indicator provides mathematically rigorous, quantifiable evidence of price levels where significant market activity occurs.
- The Mathematical Foundation: Pointwise Mutual Information
Pointwise Mutual Information measures how much more likely two events are to occur together compared to if they were statistically independent. In our context:
Event A: Volume spikes occurring (high trading activity)
Event B: Price being at specific levels
The PMI formula calculates: PMI = log(P(A,B) / (P(A) × P(B)))
Where:
P(A,B) = Probability of volume spikes occurring at specific price levels
P(A) = Probability of volume spikes occurring anywhere
P(B) = Probability of price being at specific levels
High PMI scores indicate that volume spikes and certain price levels co-occur much more frequently than random chance would predict, revealing genuine support and resistance zones.
- Why PMI Outperforms Traditional Methods
Subjective interpretation: What one trader sees as significant, another might ignore
Confirmation bias: Tendency to see patterns that confirm existing beliefs
Inconsistent criteria: No standardized definition of "significant" volume or price action
Static analysis: Doesn't adapt to changing market conditions
No strength measurement: Can't quantify how "strong" a level truly is
PMI Advantages:
✅ Objective & Quantifiable: Mathematical proof of significance, not visual guesswork
✅ Statistical Rigor: Levels backed by information theory and probability
✅ Strength Scoring: PMI scores rank levels by statistical significance
✅ Adaptive: Automatically adjusts to different market volatility regimes
✅ Eliminates Bias: Computer-calculated, removing human interpretation errors
✅ Market Structure Aware: Reveals the underlying order flow concentrations
- How It Works
Data Processing Pipeline:
Volume Analysis: Identifies volume spikes using configurable thresholds
Price Binning: Divides price range into discrete levels for analysis
Co-occurrence Calculation: Measures how often volume spikes happen at each price level
PMI Computation: Calculates statistical significance for each price level
Level Filtering: Shows only levels exceeding minimum PMI thresholds
Dynamic Updates: Refreshes levels periodically while maintaining historical traces
Visual System:
Current Levels: Bright, thick lines with PMI scores - your actionable levels
Historical Traces: Faded previous levels showing market structure evolution
Strength Tiers: Line styles indicate PMI strength (solid/dashed/dotted)
Color Coding: Green for support, red for resistance
Info Table: Real-time display of strongest levels with scores

Enter short on failure to break through
Stop above the PMI level
Target: Next PMI support level
Risk Management:
Stop Loss Placement
Place stops 0.1-0.5% beyond PMI levels (adjust for volatility)
Higher PMI scores warrant tighter stops
Use ATR-based stops for volatile assets
Position Sizing
Larger positions at PMI levels >2.0 (highest conviction)
Smaller positions at PMI levels 0.5-1.0 (lower conviction)
Scale out at multiple PMI targets
- Key Warning Signs & What to Watch For
Red Flags:
🚨 Very Low PMI Scores (<0.3): Weak statistical significance, avoid trading
🚨 No Volume Confirmation: PMI level without recent volume spikes may be stale
🚨 Overcrowded Levels: Too many levels close together suggests poor parameter tuning
🚨 Outdated Levels: Historical traces are reference only, not tradeable
Optimization Tips:
✅ Regular Recalibration: Adjust parameters monthly based on market regime changes
✅ Volume Context: Always check for recent volume activity at PMI levels
✅ Multiple Timeframes: Confirm PMI levels across different timeframes
✅ Market Conditions: Higher thresholds during high volatility periods
Interpreting PMI Scores
PMI Score Ranges:
0.5-1.0: Moderate statistical significance, proceed with caution
1.0-1.5: Good significance, reliable for most trading strategies
1.5-2.0: Strong significance, high-confidence trade setups
2.0+: Very strong significance, institutional-grade levels
Historical Context: The historical trace system shows how support and resistance evolve over time. When current levels align with multiple historical traces, it indicates persistent market memory at those prices, significantly increasing the level's reliability.
Advanced Support and Resistance Levels[MAP]Advanced Support and Resistance Levels Indicator

Overview
The "Advanced Support and Resistance Levels" indicator, created, is a sophisticated tool designed for TradingView's Pine Script v6 platform. It identifies and plots key support and resistance levels on a price chart, enhancing technical analysis by incorporating pivot strength, volume weighting, and level decay. The indicator overlays lines, zones, and labels on the chart, providing a visual representation of significant price levels where the market has historically reversed or consolidated.
Purpose
This indicator, authored by , aims to:
Detect significant pivot points (highs and lows) with customizable strength requirements.
Track and rank support/resistance levels based on their recency, volume, and number of touches.
Display these levels as lines and optional zones, with strength-based visual cues (e.g., line thickness and opacity).
Offer flexibility through user-configurable settings to adapt to different trading styles and market conditions.
Features
Pivot Detection:
Identifies high and low pivots using a strength parameter, requiring a specified number of bars on either side where no higher highs or lower lows occur.
Incorporates closing price checks and SMA-based trend confirmation to filter out noise and ensure pivots align with the broader market direction.
Level Management:
Maintains a dynamic array of levels with attributes: price, type (support/resistance), bars since last touch, strength, and volume.
Merges nearby levels within a tolerance percentage, updating prices with a strength-weighted average.
Prunes weaker or older levels when exceeding the maximum allowed, prioritizing those with higher calculated strength.
Strength Calculation:
Combines the number of touches (strength), volume (if enabled), and age decay (if enabled) into a single metric.
Volume weighting uses a logarithmic scale to emphasize high-volume pivots without over-amplifying extreme values.
Age decay reduces the importance of older levels over time, ensuring relevance to current price action.
Visualization:
Draws horizontal lines at each level, with thickness reflecting the number of touches (up to a user-defined maximum).
Optional price zones around levels, sized as a percentage of the price, to indicate areas of influence.
Labels display the level type (S for support, R for resistance), price, and strength score, with position (left or right) customizable.
Line opacity varies with strength, providing a visual hierarchy of level significance.
Plots small triangles at detected pivot points for reference.
Inputs
Lookback Period (lookback, default: 20): Number of bars to consider for trend confirmation via SMA. Range: 5–100.
Pivot Strength (strength, default: 2): Number of bars required on each side of a pivot to confirm it. Range: 1–10.
Price Tolerance % (tolerance, default: 0.5): Percentage range for merging similar levels. Range: 0.1–5.
Max Levels to Show (maxLevels, default: 10): Maximum number of levels displayed. Range: 2–50.
Zone Size % (zoneSizePercent, default: 0.1): Size of the S/R zone as a percentage of the price. Range: 0–1.
Line Width (lineWidth, default: 1): Maximum thickness of level lines. Range: 1–5.
Show Labels (showLabels, default: true): Toggle visibility of level labels.
Label Position (labelPos, default: "Right"): Position of labels ("Left" or "Right").
Level Strength Decay (levelDecay, default: true): Enable gradual reduction in strength for older levels.
Volume Weighting (volumeWeight, default: true): Incorporate volume into level strength calculations.
Support Color (supportColor, default: green): Color for support levels.
Resistance Color (resistColor, default: red): Color for resistance levels.
How It Works
Pivot Detection:
Checks for pivots only after enough bars (2 * strength) have passed.
A high pivot requires strength bars before and after with no higher highs or closes, and a short-term SMA above a long-term SMA.
A low pivot requires strength bars before and after with no lower lows or closes, and a short-term SMA below a long-term SMA.
Level Tracking:
New pivots create levels with initial strength and volume.
Existing levels within tolerance are updated: strength increases, volume takes the maximum value, and price adjusts via a weighted average.
Levels older than lookback * 4 bars with strength below 0.5 are removed.
If the number of levels exceeds maxLevels, the weakest (by calculated strength) are pruned using a selection sort algorithm.
Drawing:
Updates on the last confirmed bar or in real-time.
Lines extend lookback bars left and right from the current bar, with thickness based on touches.
Zones (if enabled) are drawn symmetrically around the level price.
Labels show detailed info, with opacity tied to strength.
Usage
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to any TradingView chart via the Pine Script editor, as designed by .
Adjust Settings: Customize inputs to match your trading strategy (e.g., increase strength for stronger pivots, adjust tolerance for tighter level merging).
Interpret Levels: Focus on thicker, less transparent lines for stronger levels; use zones to identify potential reversal areas.
Combine with Other Tools: Pair with trend indicators or oscillators for confluence in trading decisions.
Notes
Performance: The indicator uses arrays and sorting, which may slow down on very long charts with many levels. Keep maxLevels reasonable for efficiency.
Accuracy: Enhanced by trend confirmation and volume weighting, making it more reliable than basic S/R indicators, thanks to 's design.
Limitations: Real-time updates may shift levels as new pivots form; historical levels are more stable.
Example Settings
For day trading: lookback=10, strength=1, tolerance=0.3, maxLevels=5.
For swing trading: lookback=50, strength=3, tolerance=0.7, maxLevels=10.

Candle Body Support/Resistance [LuxAlgo]The Candle Body Support/Resistance indicator is a tool that provides Support/Resistance levels from high-volatility candles, a concept originally described by Steve Nison in "Beyond Candlesticks".
Users can define the candle body percentage used to set the detected support/resistance levels. Occurrences of price testing the returned levels are highlighted using user-customizable dots.
🔶 USAGE
Support/Resistance levels are drawn from volatile candles, that is candles having a body (range between opening and closing price) whose magnitude is larger than the Volatility Threshold , which is determined by the multiplicative factor of an ATR (Average True Range) using a user set length.
The level starts from the opening price +/- a percentage of the open-close range. Users can adjust the percentage of the candle body used as support/resistance levels respectively, with higher percentage values returning levels prone to get reached sooner by the price.
A test is considered valid when a wick passes through the Support/Resistance level while the closing price is not breaking it.
Two modes are included, Trailing and Historical , both affecting the displayed elements of the indicator, these are described in the sub-section below.
🔹 Historical
The Historical Mode will draw a separate line from every Volatile Candle . When this line is tested, a dot will be drawn.
In the above example, the red resistance line was tested once until a bullish volatile candle formed, which closed just below the resistance level. The resistance level was tested again, after which the newly created support level was broken quickly, and the price decreased. These levels proved helpful later, acting as resistance/support levels (illustrated by the extra manually drawn dashed white lines).
To prevent cluttering Support/Resistance , lines will be deleted when the line is mitigated and hasn't been tested.
When a Support/Resistance line reaches its Maximum Line Length , it will also be deleted when it has not been tested.
🔹 Trailing
When a new volatile candle of the same type (bullish/bearish) appears while the Support/Resistance isn't broken, this line will be updated with the values of the new volatile candle. This creates a trailing line and a less cluttered chart.
Unlike the Historical mode , a line will not be deleted after a while or when it is mitigated. Instead, the line won't be updated anymore. A new line will start from the next found volatile candle.
Using the same situation as the Historical Mode example, we can note the future significance of old support/resistance levels (illustrated by the extra manually drawn dashed white lines).
The user can switch between these 2 modes, each offering a unique perspective on the market. This provides a more in-depth examination of the market, enhancing the user's trading analysis.
Using a copy of our indicator while using both modes can also be helpful.
🔶 DETAILS
The Support level is the opening price of a bullish volatile candle plus a user-set percentage of the candle's body, while the Resistance level is the opening price of a bearish volatile candle minus a percentage of the candle's body.
The following example illustrates the ATR with the multiplicative factor (Volatility Threshold) where the body of Volatile candles exceeds the ATR limits. Changing the Volatility Threshold and ATR length gives users extra flexibility to adjust to their needs.
🔹 Max Line Length
When using the Historical Mode and the duration of a displayed level reaches the user-set Max Line Length value, the level will return to the last test or be deleted when it has not been tested.
🔶 SETTINGS
Display Mode: Display mode of the indicator.
Support %: Sets the distance of the Support Line from the opening price relative to the candle body.
Resistance %: Sets the distance of the Resistance Line from the opening price relative to the candle body.
🔹 Filter
Length ATR: Amount of bars for the calculation of the Average True Range.
Volatility Threshold: multiplicative factor of ATR.
Max Line Length: Maximum allowed duration/length (in bars) of a Support/Resistance level.
Support and Resistance (High Volume Boxes) [ChartPrime]Support and Resistance (High Volume Boxes)
◆ Overview:
The "Support and Resistance" indicator identifies key support and resistance levels using pivot points and volume analysis. It visually represents these levels with dynamically colored boxes, indicating the strength of the volume. This helps traders recognize potential price reversals and key zones for buy and sell opportunities.
◆ Key Features:
Dynamic Support and Resistance Boxes:
The indicator plots support and resistance boxes based on pivot points and volume above threshold for positive volume boxes and below lower threshold for negative volume boxes.
Box colors change from transparent to more intense based on volume, reflecting the strength of support or resistance.
Boxes expands until a new box of the same type appears.
Volume-Based Color Coding:
Boxes are color-coded based on the amount of volume:
Green boxes indicate support levels with positive volume.
Red boxes indicate resistance levels with negative volume.
Hold Signals:
Green diamonds (◆) indicate when support holds, signaling potential buy opportunities.
Red diamonds (◆) indicate when resistance holds, signaling potential sell opportunities.
Breakout Labels:
If the price falls below a support level, that level will become resistance. If the price rises above a resistance level, it will often become support. As the price moves past a level of support or resistance, it is thought that supply and demand has shifted, causing the breached level to reverse its role.
Labels "Break Sup" and "Break Res" are displayed when support or resistance levels are broken, indicating significant market movements.
◆ Break Resistance:
◆Break Support:
◆ Usage Notes:
This indicator helps traders identify strong support and resistance levels, offering visual cues for potential price reversals.
By analyzing volume at these levels, traders can gauge the strength of these zones and make more informed trading decisions.
◆ Settings:
Lookback Period: The number of bars to look back for pivot points.
Delta Volume Filter Length: The length of the volume filter for more accurate volume analysis. (Higher input, will filter low volume boxes)
Adjust Box Width: Adjusts the width of the support and resistance boxes.
This indicator is designed to enhance your trading by providing clear visual cues for support and resistance levels based on volume, making it easier to spot potential price reversals and key trading opportunities.
Autodrawn Support and Resistance LevelsAutodrawn Support and Resistance Levels is an indicator that helps traders identify key support and resistance levels on a chart. These levels are important because they can help traders make decisions about when to buy or sell an asset. The indicator uses three lookback periods to identify recent highs and lows and then draws lines at the highest support and resistance levels for those periods. The lines are color-coded, with green indicating support and red showing resistance. The thickness of the lines can also be adjusted to match a trader's preferences. The lines are updated automatically as new data is added to the chart, making it easy for traders to identify new levels of support and resistance as they emerge. Overall, this indicator is a helpful tool for traders who want to quickly and easily identify critical levels on a chart to inform their trading decisions.
By having one lookback period on a medium-term timeframe (e.g. 50), a short-term timeframe (e.g. 10), and a long-term timeframe (e.g. 300), it can be easier to identify support and resistance levels that are relevant to the current market trend, and see multiple critical levels at once. This can help you make more informed decisions about when to enter and exit trades, as well as where to set stop-loss orders. It may be valuable to consider that as shorter-term and longer-term support/resistance levels become closer together, it is more likely for there to be a reversal in the opposite direction.
This indicator is less useful in markets that have strong trends, where the horizontal support and resistance levels are likely to be less useful than trend line support and resistance levels, however it works well in sideways trading markets

Using this "Support Resistance Interactive" script you can set the Support/Resistance levels interactively by clicking on the chart. Using the SR levels you set, the indicator creates Support Resistance zones. The width of the zones are calculated by using Threshold option and Threshold is the percent of the distance between Highest/Lowest levels in last 300 bars. if you set Threshold = 1 then it means 1% of the distance between Highest/Lowest levels. You can change SR levels by moving the level up/down by using your mouse anytime you want.
Now lets see it step by step;
After you added the indicator it will ask 5 Support/Resistance Levels and when you click any point then it's kept as S/R level and it asks another SR levels. if you want to use only 3 SR levels then last 2 SR levels are not important and you can click anywhere on the chart;
After you set all SR levels, it will ask "Number of Support/Resistance" . if you want to activate first 3 SR lines then set it 3. by default it's 5. when you set it click "Apply" and see the SR zones. that's it.
You can enable/disable alerts and set frequency, then create alerts. as it's interactive tool, the SR levels you set are specific for the current/active symbol. if you open another symbol then you better delete the indicator and add it again
Three Alerts exist in the script: Support Broken, Resistance Broken and Price in SR zone . you can enable/disable the alerts as you wish and you can set frequency for each one as "Once Per Bar" or "Once Per Bar Close"
by default Green/Red/Gray colors are used but You can change the colors using the options. according to the Price moves, SR zone colors are changed automatically.
when we have "Reset" feature to run the script interactively (like we added it for first time) I can update the script, then you will not need to delete/re-add each time you changed the symbol :)
In this example "Threshold" is 2 and "Number of Support/Resistance" is 4.
in this example "Threshold" is 0 and "Number of Support/Resistance" is 5.
Last example; Labels are shown for each zone, you can set location of the labels. SR order and Upper/lower band of each zone are shown in each label.
Enjoy!
Support Resistance ChannelsHello All,
For Long time I was planning to make Support/Resistance Channels script, finally I had time and here it is.
How 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
You can set/change following settings:
- Pivot Period
- Source : High/Low or Close/Open can be used
- Maximum Channel Width %: this is the maximum channel width rate, this is calculated using Highest/Lowest levels in last 300 bars
- Number of S/R to show : this is the number of Strongest S/R to show
- Loopback Period: While calculating S/R levels it checks Pivot Points in LoopBack Period
- Show S/R on last # Bars: To see S/R levels only on last N bars
- Start Date: the script starts calculating Pivot Point from this date, the reason I put this option is for visuality. Explained below
- You can set colors/transparency
- and You can enable/disable shapes for broken S/R levels
Examples:
You can change colors as you wish:
here " Show S/R on last # Bars " set 100:
Sometimes visuality may corrupt because of old S/R levels, to solve it you need to set "Start Date" in the options to start the script in visual part (last 292 bars)
here in first screenshot it doesn't look good (shrink), then on second screenshot I set the "Start Date" it looks better, if you change time frame don't forget to set it again :)
Enjoy!
Support and Resistance MTFSupport and Resistance MTF
Support and Resistance MTF is a powerful tool that automatically detects and visualizes key support and resistance levels based on pivot highs and lows, using a higher timeframe of your choice. It is designed for traders who focus on price action and market structure, and want an adaptive, clean, and customizable indicator that helps identify important market zones.
The script uses configurable pivot logic to identify levels, with user-defined parameters for pivot strength and timeframe. Once a support or resistance level is detected, it is displayed on the chart either as a horizontal line, a shaded box, or both, depending on your display settings. You can fully customize the visual appearance including color, transparency, and line thickness. Levels are automatically extended into the future, and optionally into the past, to give better context.
Each level is monitored for breakout behavior. If price breaks through a level, it can change its role — a former resistance may become support, and vice versa. After a certain number of breakouts (which you define), the level is considered invalid and is automatically removed from the chart. This helps to maintain a clean visual layout and ensures only relevant levels are shown.
The indicator supports multi-timeframe analysis, allowing you to overlay higher-timeframe structure directly on your lower-timeframe trading chart. It is also compatible with Heikin Ashi candles internally for reference, without affecting your main chart type.
Support and Resistance MTF is ideal for traders looking to align intraday setups with higher-timeframe zones, manage risk around structural levels, or simply highlight market turning points in a clear and automated way. Built with Pine Script v5 and optimized for performance, it is both powerful and lightweight.
⚙️ Input Parameters – Description
[Time-Frame
Defines the higher timeframe used for detecting support and resistance levels. For example, you can set this to 1h, 4h, or D to visualize significant levels from a broader market perspective on a lower-timeframe chart.
Left / Right (Pivot Left / Pivot Right)
These parameters control the sensitivity of the pivot detection. A pivot high/low is confirmed if it is higher/lower than the defined number of candles to its left and right. Higher values reduce noise but may miss smaller turning points.
Extend Left
When enabled, the drawn levels (lines and/or boxes) are extended to the left side of the chart, allowing you to see the historical alignment of these levels.
Max Breaks Before Delete
Defines how many times a level can be broken by price before it is removed from the chart. This helps to avoid clutter from outdated or invalidated levels and keeps your chart relevant to current price action.
Draw Lines Only
If enabled, the indicator will draw only horizontal lines for support and resistance zones, omitting the colored background boxes. Useful for a cleaner chart appearance.
Line Width Broken Level
Sets the thickness of the support/resistance lines. Thicker lines can emphasize key levels, especially after a breakout.
Transparency Boxes
Controls the transparency (0–100) of the background boxes representing the zones. A higher value makes the boxes more transparent, lower values make them more opaque.
Transparency Lines
Controls the transparency (0–100) of the horizontal support and resistance lines. This allows for visual fine-tuning based on chart background and personal preference.
Support (Color, Group: Display)
Lets you choose the color used for support zones and lines. By default, it's green, but you can change it to fit your theme or visual preference.
Resistance (Color, Group: Display)
Defines the color for resistance zones and lines. The default is red, but it can be customized freely.
Support and Resistance Logistic Regression | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Logistic Regression Support / Resistance indicator! This tool leverages advanced statistical modeling "Logistic Regressions" to identify and project key price levels where the market is likely to find support or resistance. For more information about the process, please check the "HOW DOES IT WORK ?" section.
Logistic Regression Support / Resistance Features :
Intelligent S/R Identification : The indicator uses a logistic regression model to intelligently identify and plot significant support and resistance levels.
Predictive Probability : Each identified level comes with a calculated probability, indicating how likely it is to act as a true support or resistance based on historical data.
Retest & Break Labels : The indicator clearly marks on your chart when a detected support or resistance level is retested (price touches and respects the level) or broken (price decisively crosses through the level).
Alerts : Real-time alerts for support retests, resistance retests, support breaks, and resistance breaks.
Customizable : You can change support & resistance line style, width and colors.
🚩 UNIQUENESS
What makes this indicator truly unique is its application of logistic regression to the concept of support and resistance. Instead of merely identifying historical highs and lows, our indicator uses a statistical model to predict the future efficacy of these levels. It analyzes underlying market conditions (like RSI and body size at pivot formation) to assign a probability to each potential S/R zone. This predictive insight, combined with dynamic, real-time labeling of retests and breaks, provides a more robust and adaptive understanding of market structure than traditional, purely historical methods.
📌HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The Logistic Regression Support / Resistance indicator operates in several key steps:
First, it identifies significant pivot highs and lows on the chart based on a user-defined "Pivot Length." These pivots are potential areas of support or resistance.
For each detected pivot, the indicator extracts relevant market data at that specific point, including the RSI (Relative Strength Index) and the Body Size (the absolute difference between the open and close price of the candle). These serve as input features for the model.
The core of the indicator lies in its logistic regression model. This model is continuously trained on past pivot data and their subsequent behavior (i.e., whether they were "respected" as support/resistance multiple times). It learns the relationship between the extracted features (RSI, Body Size) and the likelihood of a pivot becoming a significant S/R level.
When a new pivot is identified, the model uses its learned insights to calculate a prediction value—a probability (from 0 to 1) that this specific pivot will act as a strong support or resistance.
If the calculated probability exceeds a user-defined "Probability Threshold," the pivot is designated a "Regression Pivot" and drawn on the chart as a support or resistance line. The indicator then actively tracks how price interacts with these levels, displaying "R" labels for retests when the price bounces off the level and "B" labels for breaks when the price closes beyond it.
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Pivot Length: This setting defines the number of bars used to determine a significant high or low for pivot detection.
Target Respects: This input specifies how many times a level must be "respected" by price action for it to be considered a strong support or resistance level by the underlying model.
Probability Threshold: This is the minimum probability output from the logistic regression model for a detected pivot to be considered a valid support or resistance level and be plotted on the chart.
2. Style
Show Prediction Labels: Enable or disable labels that display the calculated probability of a newly identified regression S/R level.
Show Retests: Toggle the visibility of "R" labels on the chart, which mark instances where price has retested a support or resistance level.
Show Breaks: Toggle the visibility of "B" labels on the chart, which mark instances where price has broken through a support or resistance level.
Support Resistance base Volume RSIThe indicator displays support and resistance levels based on volume and the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
Variable and Input Assignment:
lookback: Determines the period for data lookback.
RsiVisible, RsilabelSize, OversoldForRsi, OverboughtForRsi: Various inputs to adjust RSI indicator parameters.
Indicator Calculation:
highestVol: Finds the highest volume within a certain period.
Rsi: Calculates the RSI value with a period of 14.
roc: Calculates the Rate of Change.
Support and Resistance Level Determination:
Uses a comparison between price change (roc) and RSI value to determine whether the price is rising or falling.
If the price is rising and the current volume is greater than the previous highest volume, a new resistance level is established.
If the price is falling and the current volume is greater than the previous highest volume, a new support level is established.
Support and Resistance Lines:
Creates lines indicating the latest support and resistance levels.
These lines are updated whenever there is a change in support or resistance levels.
RSI Labels:
Displays the RSI value above or below the price chart depending on whether the RSI is above or below the overbought or oversold levels.
If the RSI value is above the overbought level, the label is displayed above the price.
If the RSI value is below the oversold level, the label is displayed below the price.
Labels are removed if the corresponding conditions are not met.
Additional RSI Label:
Adds an additional label displaying the RSI value next to the price chart on the last bar.
The main purpose of this script is to assist traders in identifying support and resistance levels based on price movement, volume, and the RSI indicator. Thus, traders can use this information to make better trading decisions.
Support Resistance - Dynamic v2 w/ Timeframe optionThis script is a modification from the awesome "Support Resistance - Dynamic v2" by @LonesomeTheBlue
This script is very similar to the original indicator mentioned above, but with a modification that, in my opinion, would be very useful for many traders. It enables the option to choose different timeframe to calculate the S/R levels. Very often, traders would like to use higher timeframes to define S/R levels, rather than using the same timeframe that they are trading at. For example, if trading at 5min, we often use 15min, 30min or 1hr timeframe to define our S/R levels.
For example, below shows S/R levels from three different timeframes:
Hope you find value in this indicator~ Enjoy~
Support & Resistance Trendlines with PP + Fib. Channel█ Support & Resistance Trendlines with Pivot Points + Fibonacci Channel
This script automatically draw support and resistance trend lines based on pivot points and add a fibonacci channel.
It will show potential patterns with the help of support and resistance lines as well as breakout target and pullback entry with the fibonacci extension and retracement levels.
It is based on atolelole's script, I only made it more configurable so please check out his script.
I added the possibility to change values and add additional retracement and extension levels.
I also made it customizable with the possibility to change lines color, width and style.
Support Resistance Channels/Zones Multi Time FrameHello All,
For long time I have been getting a lot of requests for Support/Resistance Multi Time Frame script. Here ' Support Resistance Channels/Zones Multi Time Frame ' is in your service.
This script works if the Higher Time Frame you set is higher than the chart time frame. so the time frame in the options should be higher than the chart time frame.
The script checks total bars and highest/lowest in visible part of the chart and shows all S/R zones that fits according the highest/lowest in visible part. you can see screenshots below if it didn't make sense or if you didn't understand
Let see the options:
Higher Time Frame : the time frame that will be used to get Support/Resistance zones, should be higher than chart time frame
Pivot Period : is the number to find the Pivot Points on Higher time frame, these pivot points are used while calculating the S/R zones
Loopback Period : is the number of total bars on higher time frame which is used while finding pivot points
Maximum Channel Width % : is the percent for maximum width for each channel
Minimum Strength : each zone should contain at least a 1 or more pivot points, you set it here. (Open/High/Low/Close also are considered while calculating the strength)
Maximum Number of S/R : the number of maximum Support/Resistance zones. there can be less S/Rs than this number if it can not find enough S/Rs
Show S/R that fits the Chart : because of we use higher time frame, you should enable this option then the script shows only S/Rs that fits the current chart. if you disable this option, all S/R zones are shown and it may shrink the chart. also you may not see any S/R zone if you don't choose the higher time frame wisely ;)
Show S/R channels in a table : if you enable this option (by default it's enabled) then lower/upper bands of all S/R zones shown in a table ( even if it doesn't fit the chart ). you can change its location. zones are sorted according to their strengths. first one is the strongest.
and the other options is about colors and transparency.
Screenshots before and after zoom-out:
after zoom-out number of visible bars and highest/lowest change and it shows more S/R zones that fits the current chart!
if you see Support Resistance zone like below then you should decrease ' Maximum Channel Width ' or you should set higher time frame better:
You can change colors and transparency:
You can change Table location:
Alerts added :)
P.S. I haven't tested it so much, if you see any issue please drop a comment or send me message
Enjoy!
Multi-TimeFrame Extremum Points Support/ResistanceIntroduction
This is my newest Support/Resistance indicator based on the idea of my previous script which had been featured in Editors' Picks .
Everyone seems to have their own idea of how you should measure support and resistance levels. This code finds the exact highest and lowest price points (Extrema) on the chart and then draws the support and resistance levels on them.
In my opinion, the advantage of this method is that the most powerful resistance/support levels which usually cover the supply/demand areas would be formed on these extremum points, as the following facts state.
Facts
1. Support and resistance levels are one of the key concepts used by technical analysts and form the basis of a wide variety of technical analysis tools. Technical analysts use support and resistance levels to identify price points on a chart where the probabilities favor a pause or reversal of a prevailing trend.
2. Supply and demand zones are natural support and resistance levels and a popular analysis technique used in day trading. The zones are the periods of sideways price action that come before explosive price moves. A supply zone forms before a downtrend and a demand zone forms before an uptrend. When the price leaves the supply/demand zone and starts trending, the strong imbalance between buyers and sellers leads to strong and explosive price movements.
3. Based on Dow Theory, trends persist until a clear reversal occurs. A reversal is a change in the price direction of an asset. Reversals typically refer to large price changes, where the trend changes direction.
Challenges
The most challenging part in implementing a S/R indicator which draws all the levels on the chart is the problem of congestion!
But we should notice two other facts:
1. The more times the price tests a support or resistance area, the more significant the level becomes.
2. A previous support level will sometimes become a resistance level when the price attempts to move back up, and conversely, a resistance level will become a support level as the price temporarily falls back.
So, I solved the problem using these two approaches:
Merging nearby levels and showing the role of the levels in colors and numbers
Avoiding many weaker levels by checking higher time frames
Settings and Usage
There are some options in the indicator settings as described below:
Calculations Time Frame: By changing the time frame, user could keep only the stronger S/R levels on the chart.
Level Colors: By default, lowest points (Supports) are green, highest points (Resistances) are red and merged levels are blue. Note that the transparency of the colors would be calculated automatically; The more opaque the color is, the stronger the level is!
Lines Style and Width: The style of the levels could be solid, dashed or dotted and user could also change the lines width in pixels.
Length of the lines: This option is based on the count of bars, but user could simply choose to extend the levels
Merge Nearby Levels: The proximity of the levels would be calculated automatically based on ATR (Average True Range) and the default length of the formula could be changed.
Labels: Each level could have a label consisting the count of merged levels into one, the percentage of merged supports/resistances and the price of the level. Note that if user choose to see the percentage of S/R roles, the color of each label changes automatically based on the main role of corresponding merged level (e.g., a blue level with a red label means that the level more acted as resistance).
I think the users of my previous S/R indicators could check this one

Price Action - Support & Resistance by DGTSᴜᴘᴘᴏʀᴛ ᴀɴᴅ Rᴇꜱɪꜱᴛᴀɴᴄᴇ , is undoubtedly one of the key concepts of technical analysis
█ Sᴜᴘᴘᴏʀᴛ ᴀɴᴅ Rᴇꜱɪꜱᴛᴀɴᴄᴇ Dᴇꜰɪɴɪᴛɪᴏɴ
Support and Resistance terms are used by traders to refer to price levels on charts that tend to act as barriers, preventing the price of an financial instrument from getting pushed in a certain direction.
A support level is a price level where buyers are more aggressive than sellers. This means that the price is more likely to "bounce" off this level rather than break through it. However, once the price has breached this level it is likely to continue falling until meeting another support level.
A resistance level is the opposite of a support level. It is where the price tends to find resistance as it rises. Again, this means that the price is more likely to "bounce" off this level rather than break through it. However, once the price has breached this level it is likely to continue rising until meeting another resistance level.
A previous support level will sometimes become a resistance level when the price attempts to move back up, and conversely, a resistance level will become a support level as the price temporarily falls back.
█ Iᴅᴇɴᴛɪꜰʏɪɴɢ Sᴜᴘᴘᴏʀᴛ ᴀɴᴅ Rᴇꜱɪꜱᴛᴀɴᴄᴇ
Support and resistance can come in various forms, and the concept is more difficult to master than it first appears. Identification of key support and resistance levels is an essential ingredient to successful technical analysis.
If the price stalls and reverses in the same price area on minimum of two different occasions, then a horizontal line is drawn to show that the market is struggling to move past that area. Those areas are static barriers, one of the most popular forms of support/resistance and are highlighted with horizontal lines.
Repeated test , the more often a support/resistance level is "tested" over an extended period of time (touched and bounced off by price), the more significance is given to that specific level
High volume , the more buying and selling that has occurred at a particular price level, the stronger the support or resistance level is likely to be
Market psychology , plays a major role as traders and investors remember the past and react to changing conditions to anticipate future market movement.
Psychological levels , is a price level that significantly affects the price of an underlying financial instrument. Typically, near round numbers often serve as support and resistance
The following support and resistance related topics are beyond the scope of this study, so they will be mentioned roughly only as a reference for support and resistance concept
Trendlines , Support and resistance levels in trends are dynamic. Throughout an uptrend, levels of support tend to look like a trendline, usually clustering around higher lows. As the price rises, the price where buyers consider the stock to be “too cheap” also changes, which creates new support levels on the way up. The same is also true for resistance levels. In an uptrend, a stock is continuously breaking through perceived resistance levels and making new highs
Moving Averages , is a constantly changing line that smooths out past price data while also allowing the trader to identify support and resistance. In the example Notice how the price of the asset finds support at the moving average when the trend is up, and how it acts as resistance when the trend is down
The Fibonacci Retracement/Extension tool , is a favorite among many short-term traders because it clearly identifies levels of potential support and resistance
Pivot Point Calculations , is another common technical analysis technique, where pivot point is calculated based on the high, low, and closing prices of previous trading session/day and support & resistance levels are projected based on the pivot point, different calculation techniques are available, as presented in this example of an pivot point indicator : PVTvX by DGT
█ Tʀᴀᴅɪɴɢ Bᴀꜱᴇᴅ ᴏɴ Sᴜᴘᴘᴏʀᴛ ᴀɴᴅ Rᴇꜱɪꜱᴛᴀɴᴄᴇ
Once an area or "zone" of support or resistance has been identified, those price levels can serve as potential entry or exit points because, as a price reaches a point of support or resistance, it will do one of two things—bounce back away from the support or resistance level (trading ranges), or violate the price level and continue in its direction (trading breakouts) —until it hits the next support or resistance level
The basic trading method for using support and resistance is to buy near support in uptrends or the parts of ranges or chart patterns where prices are moving up and to sell/sell short near resistance in downtrends or the parts of ranges and chart patterns where prices are moving down. Buying near support or selling near resistance can pay off, but there is no assurance that the support or resistance will hold. Therefore, consider waiting for some confirmation that the market is still respecting that area
Trading breakouts, a breakout is a potential trading opportunity that occurs when an asset's price moves above a resistance level or moves below a support level on increasing volume. The first step in trading breakouts is to identify current price trend patterns along with support and resistance levels in order to plan possible entry and exit points. Once the asset trades beyond the price barrier, volatility tends to increase and prices usually trend in the breakout's direction. Breakouts are such an important trading strategy since these setups are the starting point for future volatility increases, large price swings and, in many circumstances, major price trends. When trading breakouts, it is important to consider the underlying asset's support and resistance levels. The more times an asset price has touched these areas, the more valid these levels are and the more important they become. At the same time, the longer these support and resistance levels have been in play, the better the outcome when the asset price finally breaks out. Asset prices will often move slightly further than we expect them to. This doesn't happen all the time, but when it does it is called a false breakout. Therefore it is important to consider waiting for some confirmation while trading breakouts. It’s also popular for traders to sell 50% of their positions at the resistance level, and hold the rest in anticipation of a breakout above resistance

This experimental study attempts to identify the support and resistance levels. Assumes a simple logic to discover moments where the price is rising or falling consecutively for minimum 3 bars with the condition volume increases on each bar and the last bar’s volume should be bigger than the long term volume moving average. A line will be drawn at the end of the move (highest or lowest, depending on the move direction), the line will be drawn at minimum on the 3rd bar and if condition holds for other consecutive bars the line will switch to 4th, 5th etc bar.
Lines will not be deleted so the historical ones will remain and will emphasis the levels significance when they overlap in feature. Strong levels are more likely to hold and cause the price to move in the other direction, whereas the minor levels may only cause the price to pause and keep moving in the same direction. Determining future levels of support and resistance can drastically improve the returns of a short-term investing strategy
Bar colors will be painted based on the volume of the specific bar to its long term volume moving average. This will help identifying the support and resistance levels significance and emphasis the sings of breakouts
Finally, Volume spikes will be marked on top of the price chart. A high volume usually indicates more interest in the security and the presence of institutional traders. However, a rapidly rising price in an uptrend accompanied by a huge volume may be a sign of exhaustion. Traders usually look for breaks of support and resistance to enter positions. When security break critical levels without volume , you should consider the breakout suspect and prime for a reversal off the highs/lows. Volume spikes are often the result of news-driven events. Volume spike will often lead to sharp reversals since the moves are unsustainable due to the imbalance of supply and demand
A good example with many support and resistance concepts observed on a stock chart and detected by the study
Settings:
Length of volume moving average, where volume moving average is used to detect support and resistance levels, is used as reference to compare with threshold values for volume spikes and colors of the bars
Hint, to get more historical lines scrolling chart to left will enable visualization of them. Please note they may appear to much all 500 line limit is used 😉

Volume Support & Resistance multi timeframe [LM]Hello guys,
I would like to introduce you volume support and resistance horizontals. It draws line horizontal on high and low high volume candles that has volume above volume MA for certain period multiplied by multiplier and also the volume is increasing from previous volume . You can select lines on this timeframe and/or another one.
The colors are dynamic depending whether price is below or above the line:
for the current timeframe green is used for support and blue for resistance
for the other timeframe by default 4h orange is used for support and violet for resistance
There are various sections in setting:
volume - here you can select SMA volume length and multiplier
show and hide section of the current timeframe
other timeframe
show and hide other timeframe horizontals
I'm mainly looking smaller timeframe and trading higher timeframe from level to level
Any suggestions are welcome
Support Resistance MTFHello Traders,
This is Support Resistance script that uses Multi Time Frame. While getting Close/Open/High/Low values of Higher Time Frames the script does NOT use Security function , instead it calculates them.
while choosing Higher Time Frame, you can use "Auto" option so it uses predefined Higher Time Frames, or you can choose the Higher Time Frame Manually from the list. options for HTF => 15mins, 30mins, 60mins, 120mins, 180mins, 240mins, 720mins, Day, Week, 2 Weeks, Months, 3 Months, 6 Months, 12 Months.
You have option to use High/Low or Close/Open values while calculating support resistance levels.
"Period for Highest/Lowest Bars" option is used as loopback period to check if it's Highest/lowest bars. smaller numbers = more sensitive result.
You have option for transparency and coloring of support/resistance levels/zone => Red, Lime, Blue, White, Black, Olive, Gray
An example for 15 min chart, 4hours selected as HTF
You can set transparency and colors as you wish:
You can choose Close/Open prices while calculating S/R levels instead of High/Low
Enjoy!
