Price Extreme BandsPrice Extreme Bands Description
This indicator calculates and displays Price Extreme Bands based on an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and True Range Average True Range (TR ATR). It utilizes a custom "Super Smoother" function to smooth the bands, providing a clearer representation of potential price extremes without sacrificing accuracy.
Usage
Built for specifically for intraday timeframes, this indicator identifies short term price extremes and volatility ranges. Traders can observe when price moves towards the outer bands, suggesting strong momentum or potential overbought/oversold conditions. The filled zones highlight areas of increased volatility which can used as exit criteria for a trade, possible reversal points in ranging markets or price ranges where price momentum could slow in trending markets.
Key Features
Length Input: Controls the length of the EMA and TR ATR calculations.
Multiplier Inputs: Uses two fixed multipliers (1.71 and 2.50) to create bands.
Super Smoother: Applies a custom smoothing function to the bands for reduced noise.
Fill Zones: Fills the areas between the inner and outer bands to highlight potential volatility ranges.
Calculation:
1. EMA (Basis): Calculates the Exponential Moving Average of the selected source.
2. TR ATR: Calculates the True Range and then smoothes it using RMA (Rolling Moving Average).
3. Bands: Calculates upper and lower bands using the EMA and ATR, with multipliers of 1.71 and 2.50.
4. Super Smoother: Applies a smoothing function to the calculated bands.
Visuals:
Basis Line: Plots the EMA (basis) (invisible by default).
Inner Bands (1.71 Multiplier): Plots the smoothed bands with a distinct color (e.g., orange) (invisible by default).
Outer Bands (2.50 Multiplier): Plots the smoothed bands with a different color (e.g., purple) (invisible by default).
Fill Zones: Fills the region between the inner and outer upper bands and the inner and outer lower bands with a translucent color (e.g. light blue).
// Note: The plot lines are invisible by default. To view the basis, upper and lower band lines, adjust the visibility settings in the indicator's settings.
Uniqueness: Ready of the box. Code and parameters built specifically for 1m to 15m timeframes provides users with an indicator to easily identify price extremes. The use of TR ATR and addition of the Super Smoother calculation create a easier visualization and implementation compared to existing price band options.

Relative Vigor Index (RVI) with EMD [AIBitcoinTrend]👽 Adaptive Relative Vigor Index with EMD & Signals (AIBitcoinTrend)
The Adaptive Relative Vigor Index (RVI) with Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) is an enhanced version of the traditional RVI, designed to improve signal clarity and responsiveness to market conditions. By integrating EMD smoothing and adaptive volatility-based trailing stops.
👽 What Makes the Adaptive RVI with EMD Unique?
Unlike the standard RVI, which often lags in volatile markets, this version refines price momentum detection by applying Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD), effectively filtering out noise. Additionally, it features ATR-based trailing stops for precise trade execution.
Key Features:
EMD-Enhanced RVI – Filters out short-term noise, improving signal accuracy.
Crossover & Crossunder Signals – Generates trade signals based on RVI trends.
ATR-Based Trailing Stop – Adjusts dynamically based on volatility for optimal risk management.
👽 The Math Behind the Indicator
👾 RVI Calculation with EMD Smoothing
The Relative Vigor Index (RVI) measures trend strength by comparing the relationship between closing and opening prices, relative to the high-low range. Traditional RVI uses fixed smoothing, whereas this version applies Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) to extract dominant price cycles and improve trend clarity.
How It Works:
The RVI is initially calculated using a weighted moving average (WMA) over a specified period.
EMD refines the RVI signal by removing high-frequency noise, creating a smoothed RVI component.
This results in a more stable and reliable trend indicator.
👽 How Traders Can Use This Indicator
👾 Trailing Stop & Signal-Based Trading
Bullish Setup:
✅ RVI crosses above EMD → Buy signal.
✅ A bullish trailing stop is placed at low - ATR × Multiplier.
✅ Exit if price crosses below the stop.
Bearish Setup:
✅ RVI crosses below EMD → Sell signal.
✅ A bearish trailing stop is placed at high + ATR × Multiplier.
✅ Exit if price crosses above the stop.
👾 Detecting Overbought & Oversold Areas
This indicator helps traders identify potential reversal zones by highlighting overbought and oversold conditions.
Overbought Zone: When RVI moves above 0.4, the market may be overextended, signaling a potential reversal downward.
Oversold Zone: When RVI moves below -0.4, the market may be undervalued, suggesting a possible upward reversal.
Using these levels, traders can confirm entry and exit points alongside divergence signals for higher probability trades.
👽 Why It’s Useful for Traders
EMD-Based Signal Enhancement: Filters out noise, refining momentum signals.
Adaptive ATR-Based Risk Management: Automatically adjusts stop-loss levels to market conditions.
Works Across Multiple Markets & Timeframes: Effective for stocks, forex, crypto, and futures trading.

2022 Model ICT Entry Strategy [TradingFinder] One Setup For Life🔵 Introduction
The ICT 2022 model, introduced by Michael Huddleston, is an advanced trading strategy rooted in liquidity and price imbalance, where time and price serve as the core elements. This ICT 2022 trading strategy is an algorithmic approach designed to analyze liquidity and imbalances in the market. It incorporates concepts such as Fair Value Gap (FVG), Liquidity Sweep, and Market Structure Shift (MSS) to help traders identify liquidity movements and structural changes in the market, enabling them to determine optimal entry and exit points for their trades.
This Full ICT Day Trading Model empowers traders to pinpoint the Previous Day High/Low as well as the highs and lows of critical sessions like the London and New York sessions. These levels act as Liquidity Zones, which are frequently swept prior to a market structure shift (MSS) or a retracement to areas such as Optimal Trade Entry (OTE).
Bullish :
Bearish :
🔵 How to Use
The ICT 2022 model is a sophisticated trading strategy that focuses on identifying key liquidity levels and price movements. It operates based on two main principles. In the first phase, the price approaches liquidity zones and sweeps critical levels such as the previous day’s high or low and key session levels.
This movement is known as a Liquidity Sweep. In the second phase, following the sweep, the price retraces to areas like the FVG (Fair Value Gap), creating ideal entry points for trades. Below is a detailed explanation of how to apply this strategy in bullish and bearish setups.
🟣 Bullish ICT 2022 Model Setup
To use the ICT 2022 model in a bullish setup, start by identifying the Previous Day High/Low or key session levels, such as those of the London or New York sessions. In a bullish setup, the price usually moves downward first, sweeping the Liquidity Low. This move, known as a Liquidity Sweep, reflects the collection of buy orders by major market participants.
After the liquidity sweep, the price should shift market structure and start moving upward; this shift, referred to as Market Structure Shift (MSS), signals the beginning of an upward trend. Following MSS, areas like FVG, located within the Discount Zone, are identified. At this stage, the trader waits for the price to retrace to these zones. Once the price returns, a long trade is executed.
Finally, the stop-loss should be set below the liquidity low to manage risk, while the take-profit target is usually placed above the previous day’s high or other identified liquidity levels. This structure enables traders to take advantage of the upward price movement after the liquidity sweep.
🟣 Bearish ICT 2022 Model Setup
To identify a bearish setup in the ICT 2022 model, begin by marking the Previous Day High/Low or key session levels, such as the London or New York sessions. In this scenario, the price typically moves upward first, sweeping the Liquidity High. This move, known as a Liquidity Sweep, signifies the collection of sell orders by key market players.
After the liquidity sweep, the price should shift market structure downward. This movement, called the Market Structure Shift (MSS), indicates the start of a downtrend. Following MSS, areas such as FVG, found within the Premium Zone, are identified. At this stage, the trader waits for the price to retrace to these areas. Once the price revisits these zones, a short trade is executed.
In this setup, the stop-loss should be placed above the liquidity high to control risk, while the take-profit target is typically set below the previous day’s low or another defined liquidity level. This approach allows traders to capitalize on the downward price movement following the liquidity sweep.
🔵 Settings
Swing period : You can set the swing detection period.
Max Swing Back Method : It is in two modes "All" and "Custom". If it is in "All" mode, it will check all swings, and if it is in "Custom" mode, it will check the swings to the extent you determine.
Max Swing Back : You can set the number of swings that will go back for checking.
FVG Length : Default is 120 Bar.
MSS Length : Default is 80 Bar.
FVG Filter : This refines the number of identified FVG areas based on a specified algorithm to focus on higher quality signals and reduce noise.
Types of FVG filters :
Very Aggressive Filter: Adds a condition where, for an upward FVG, the last candle's highest price must exceed the middle candle's highest price, and for a downward FVG, the last candle's lowest price must be lower than the middle candle's lowest price. This minimally filters out FVGs.
Aggressive Filter: Builds on the Very Aggressive mode by ensuring the middle candle is not too small, filtering out more FVGs.
Defensive Filter: Adds criteria regarding the size and structure of the middle candle, requiring it to have a substantial body and specific polarity conditions, filtering out a significant number of FVGs.
Very Defensive Filter: Further refines filtering by ensuring the first and third candles are not small-bodied doji candles, retaining only the highest quality signals.
🔵 Conclusion
The ICT 2022 model is a comprehensive and advanced trading strategy designed around key concepts such as liquidity, price imbalance, and market structure shifts (MSS). By focusing on the sweep of critical levels such as the previous day’s high/low and important trading sessions like London and New York, this strategy enables traders to predict market movements with greater precision.
The use of tools like FVG in this model helps traders fine-tune their entry and exit points and take advantage of bullish and bearish trends after liquidity sweeps. Moreover, combining this strategy with precise timing during key trading sessions allows traders to minimize risk and maximize returns.
In conclusion, the ICT 2022 model emphasizes the importance of time and liquidity, making it a powerful tool for both professional and novice traders. By applying the principles of this model, you can make more informed trading decisions and seize opportunities in financial markets more effectively.

Alternate Bat Harmonic Pattern [TradingFinder] ALT Bat Indicator🔵 Introduction
The Alternate Bat harmonic pattern is one of the most precise and practical tools in technical analysis, introduced by Scott Carney in 2003. This pattern focuses on specific Fibonacci ratios, such as 0.382 at point B and 1.13XA at point D, to identify Potential Reversal Zones (PRZ) where price is likely to reverse.
The Alternative Bat pattern emerged as a result of repeated failures observed in the standard Bat pattern. Traders entering trades near the 0.886XA level of the standard Bat often encountered losses. In the Alternate Bat, point D extends beyond 0.886XA, typically reversing at 1.13XA, offering a more accurate identification of the reversal zone.
A key characteristic of this pattern is its M- or W-shaped structure, where the midpoint B retraces 0.382XA or less. Additionally, the CD leg requires an extension of 2.0 to 3.618 to complete the pattern. Due to its accuracy and the predictable behavior of price near the PRZ, the Alternate Bat pattern is recognized as a powerful tool for forecasting price reversals.
In the bullish Alternative Bat pattern, an M-shaped structure forms. After an initial upward movement (XA), price undergoes a short correction at point B (0.382XA) and then declines toward point D (1.13XA and an extension of 2.0 to 3.618BC), where a potential upward reversal is expected.
In the bearish Alternate Bat pattern, a W-shaped structure forms. After an initial downward movement (XA), price retraces slightly at point B (0.382XA) and then rises toward point D (1.13XA and an extension of 2.0 to 3.618BC), where a potential downward reversal is anticipated.
🔵 How to Use
The Alternate Bat harmonic pattern is a key tool for identifying potential reversal zones (PRZ) in the market. By leveraging the 0.382 retracement at point B and the 1.13XA extension at point D, along with symmetrical price structures, this pattern offers precise reversal opportunities in both bullish and bearish market conditions.
🟣 Bullish Alternate Bat Pattern
The bullish Alternate Bat pattern forms during a downtrend, signaling a potential reversal to the upside. This pattern consists of three downward movements with two corrective waves, ultimately reaching point D, which marks the PRZ.
At the PRZ, the convergence of Fibonacci levels—1.13XA and extensions ranging from 2.0 to 3.618BC—creates a strong support zone where price is likely to reverse upward.
🟣 Bearish Alternative Bat Pattern
The bearish Alternate Bat pattern develops during an uptrend, indicating a potential reversal to the downside. This pattern features three upward price movements with two retracements, ending at point D, where the PRZ forms.
Point D is defined by the 1.13XA extension and the 2.0 to 3.618BC projection, creating a strong resistance zone where price is expected to reverse downward.
🔵 Setting
🟣 Logical Setting
ZigZag Pivot Period : You can adjust the period so that the harmonic patterns are adjusted according to the pivot period you want. This factor is the most important parameter in pattern recognition.
Show Valid Format : If this parameter is on "On" mode, only patterns will be displayed that they have exact format and no noise can be seen in them. If "Off" is, the patterns displayed that maybe are noisy and do not exactly correspond to the original pattern.
Show Formation Last Pivot Confirm : if Turned on, you can see this ability of patterns when their last pivot is formed. If this feature is off, it will see the patterns as soon as they are formed. The advantage of this option being clear is less formation of fielded patterns, and it is accompanied by the latest pattern seeing and a sharp reduction in reward to risk.
Period of Formation Last Pivot : Using this parameter you can determine that the last pivot is based on Pivot period.
🟣 Genaral Setting
Show : Enter "On" to display the template and "Off" to not display the template.
Color : Enter the desired color to draw the pattern in this parameter.
LineWidth : You can enter the number 1 or numbers higher than one to adjust the thickness of the drawing lines. This number must be an integer and increases with increasing thickness.
LabelSize : You can adjust the size of the labels by using the "size.auto", "size.tiny", "size.smal", "size.normal", "size.large" or "size.huge" entries.
🟣 Alert Setting
Alert : On / Off
Message Frequency : This string parameter defines the announcement frequency. Choices include: "All" (activates the alert every time the function is called), "Once Per Bar" (activates the alert only on the first call within the bar), and "Once Per Bar Close" (the alert is activated only by a call at the last script execution of the real-time bar upon closing). The default setting is "Once per Bar".
Show Alert Time by Time Zone : The date, hour, and minute you receive in alert messages can be based on any time zone you choose. For example, if you want New York time, you should enter "UTC-4". This input is set to the time zone "UTC" by default.
🔵 Conclusion
The Alternate Bat harmonic pattern, with its precise Fibonacci ratios like 0.382 and 1.13XA, is a reliable tool for identifying Potential Reversal Zones (PRZ) in financial markets. By recognizing symmetrical price structures and focusing on both bullish and bearish scenarios, traders can identify optimal entry and exit points with high accuracy.
The key strength of this pattern lies in its ability to define strong support and resistance zones near the PRZ, increasing the probability of price reversals. Combining the pattern with candlestick confirmations and volume analysis enhances its effectiveness.
Ultimately, incorporating the Alternative Bat pattern with proper risk management and Fibonacci-based targets allows traders to enter the market confidently and capitalize on potential price reversals.

3 Drive Harmonic Pattern [TradingFinder] Three Drive Reversal🔵 Introduction
The Three Drive harmonic pattern closely resembles other price structures such as Wedge Pattern and Three Push Pattern, yet it stands out due to its precise use of Fibonacci ratios and symmetrical price movements.
This pattern comprises three consecutive and symmetrical price drives, each validated by key Fibonacci ratios (1.27 and 1.618), which help identify critical Potential Reversal Zones (PRZ).
Unlike the Wedge, which relies on converging trend lines and can indicate either continuation or reversal, and the Three Push, which lacks defined Fibonacci ratios and symmetry, the Three Drive pattern defines PRZ with greater accuracy, providing traders with high-probability trading opportunities.
This pattern appears in both bullish and bearish trends. After the completion of the third drive (Drive 3), it signals the market's readiness to reverse direction. The PRZ in this pattern serves as a crucial zone where price is highly likely to reverse, offering a strategic point for entering or exiting trades. Professional traders utilize the Three Drive pattern and PRZ as essential tools for analyzing and capitalizing on potential market reversals.
Bullish Pattern :
Bearish Pattern :
🔵 How to Use
The Three Drive harmonic pattern is an effective tool for identifying potential reversal points in the market. By utilizing Fibonacci extension levels (1.27 and 1.618) and focusing on the pattern’s symmetry, traders can pinpoint Potential Reversal Zones (PRZ) where the price is likely to change direction. This pattern works in both bearish and bullish scenarios, each with distinct characteristics and trading opportunities.
🟣 Bullish Three Drive Pattern
The bullish Three Drive pattern develops during a downtrend, indicating a potential reversal to the upside. Similar to its bearish counterpart, this pattern features three consecutive downward price movements (drives) with retracements in between. The third drive concludes within the PRZ, which serves as a strong support zone where the price is expected to reverse upwards.
The first drive begins with a downward movement, followed by a retracement to the 0.618 Fibonacci level. The second drive continues downward to reach a 1.27 or 1.618 Fibonacci extension of the retracement. Finally, the third drive aligns with the PRZ, where a confluence of Fibonacci levels creates a high-probability support zone.
In the PRZ, traders look for bullish confirmation signals such as bullish candlestick patterns (e.g., bullish engulfing or pin bars) or increasing trading volume. Once confirmation is observed, the PRZ becomes an ideal entry point for a buy position. Stop-loss orders are placed slightly below the PRZ to minimize risk, while take-profit targets are set at key resistance levels or Fibonacci retracement levels.
🟣 Bearish Three Drive Pattern
The bearish Three Drive pattern forms during an uptrend, signaling a potential reversal to the downside. This pattern consists of three consecutive upward price movements (drives) and intermediate retracements. Each drive aligns with Fibonacci extension levels, and the third drive ends within the PRZ, indicating a high probability of a bearish reversal.
In the first drive, the price moves upward and then retraces to approximately the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement level, forming the base for the second drive. The second drive then extends upward to the 1.27 or 1.618 Fibonacci extension of the preceding retracement. This process repeats for the third drive, which reaches the PRZ, typically defined by the convergence of Fibonacci levels from previous drives.
Once the PRZ is identified, traders look for confirmation signals such as bearish candlestick patterns (e.g., bearish engulfing or pin bars) or declining trading volume. If confirmation is present, the PRZ becomes an optimal zone for entering a sell position. Stop-loss levels are typically placed slightly above the PRZ to protect against pattern failure, and take-profit targets are set at key support levels or Fibonacci retracement levels of the overall structure.
🟣 Three Drive Vs Wedge Pattern Vs 3 Push pattern
The Three Drive, Wedge, and Three Push patterns are all used to identify potential price reversal points, but they differ significantly in structure and application. The Three Drive pattern is based on three consecutive and symmetrical price movements, validated by precise Fibonacci ratios (1.27 and 1.618), to define Potential Reversal Zones (PRZ).
In contrast, the Wedge pattern relies on converging trend lines and does not require Fibonacci ratios; it can act as either a reversal or continuation pattern. Meanwhile, the Three Push pattern shares similarities with Three Drive but lacks precise symmetry and Fibonacci-based validation.
Instead of a PRZ, Three Push focuses on identifying areas of support and resistance, often signaling weakening momentum in the current trend. Among these, the Three Drive pattern is more reliable for pinpointing high-probability reversal zones due to its strict Fibonacci-based and symmetrical structure.

The default setting is "Once per Bar".
Show Alert Time by Time Zone : The date, hour, and minute you receive in alert messages can be based on any time zone you choose. For example, if you want New York time, you should enter "UTC-4". This input is set to the time zone "UTC" by default.
🔵 Conclusion
The Three Drive pattern is a highly effective harmonic tool for identifying potential reversal points in the market. By leveraging its symmetrical structure and precise Fibonacci ratios (1.27 and 1.618), this pattern provides traders with clear entry and exit signals, enhancing the accuracy of their trades.
Whether in bullish or bearish scenarios, the identification of the Potential Reversal Zone (PRZ) serves as a critical aspect of this pattern, enabling traders to anticipate price movements with greater confidence.
Compared to similar patterns like Wedge and Three Push, the Three Drive pattern stands out for its stringent reliance on Fibonacci levels and symmetrical price movements, making it a more robust choice for forecasting reversals. However, as with any technical analysis tool, its effectiveness increases when combined with confirmation signals, such as candlestick patterns, volume analysis, and broader market context.
Mastering the Three Drive pattern requires practice and attention to detail, especially in accurately defining the PRZ and ensuring the pattern adheres to its criteria. Traders who consistently apply this pattern as part of a comprehensive trading strategy can capitalize on high-probability opportunities and improve their overall performance in the market.
RSI with Dynamic ColorsThe "RSI with Dynamic Colors" is a custom indicator built on top of the traditional Relative Strength Index (RSI), which helps traders identify overbought or oversold market conditions. This enhanced version includes added functionality like dynamic colors, highlighting specific conditions, and more customization options. Here's a breakdown of how this indicator works:
Indicator Components:
Relative Strength Index (RSI) Calculation:
The RSI is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. It oscillates between 0 and 100, helping traders determine if an asset is overbought or oversold.
In this version, the RSI is calculated with a configurable lookback period (default is 14) and applies smoothing to both upward and downward price changes using the Relative Moving Average (RMA).
Dynamic Coloring:
The indicator dynamically changes the color of the RSI line based on its value. Specific thresholds include:
Blue: When the RSI is at or above an extreme overbought level (≥ 85).
Red: When the RSI is in the overbought zone (≥ 70 but < 85).
Yellow: When the RSI is at or below the extreme oversold level (≤ 15).
Green: When the RSI is in the oversold zone (≤ 30 but > 15).
White: When the RSI is between the oversold and overbought zones.
Moving Average Options (MA):
The indicator allows the user to plot an optional moving average of the RSI for additional trend confirmation. Users can select from various types of moving averages, including Simple Moving Average (SMA), Exponential Moving Average (EMA), and others.
Bollinger Bands can be optionally applied around the RSI to visualize volatility.
Overbought and Oversold Highlights:
It provides visual highlights (green for overbought and red for oversold) in the background of the RSI plot, making it easier to identify potential reversal zones.
Divergence Detection (Optional):
The indicator can optionally display regular bullish or bearish divergence, which can signal potential trend reversals. Divergence occurs when price moves in the opposite direction of the RSI.
Bullish divergence is indicated when the price makes lower lows while the RSI makes higher lows.
Bearish divergence is shown when the price makes higher highs while the RSI makes lower highs.
Alerts:
Users can set up alerts for bullish or bearish divergence, making it easier to get notified when key conditions occur in the market.
Use Case:
This custom RSI indicator is designed for traders who want to combine the classic RSI functionality with enhanced visual aids, such as color coding for different RSI zones, customizable moving averages, and Bollinger Bands. It is particularly useful for identifying potential market tops and bottoms by highlighting overbought/oversold conditions and divergence signals.
In summary, this indicator not only retains the traditional RSI's power but also adds new layers of insight through color, moving averages, and divergence detection, helping traders make better-informed decisions.

Birdies [LuxAlgo]The Birdies indicator uses a unique technique to provide support/resistance curves based on a circle connecting the last swing high/low.
A specific, customizable part of this circle acts as a curve of interest, which can trigger visual breakout signals.
🔶 USAGE
The script projects a bird-like pattern when a valid Swing point is found. Multiple customization options are included.
🔹 Trend & Support/Resistance Tool
The color fill patterns and the wing boundaries can give insights into the current trend direction as well as serve as potential support/resistance areas.
In the example above, "Birdies" coincide with pullback and support/resistance zones.
🔹 Swing Length & Buffer
Besides the "Swing Length", with higher values returning longer-term Swing Levels, the script's behavior can be fine-tuned with filters ("Settings" - "Validation").
🔹 Validation
To minimize clutter, three filters are included:
Minimum X-Distance: The minimum amount of bars between subsequent Swings
Minimum Y-Distance: The minimum amount of bars between subsequent Swings
Buffer (Multiple of ATR)
The "Minimum X/Y-Distance" creates a zone where a new Swing is considered invalid. Only when the Swing is out of the zone, can it be considered valid.
In other words, in the example above, a Swing High can only be valid when enough bars/time have passed, and the difference between the last Swing and the previous is more than the ATR multiplied by the "Minimum Y-Distance" factor.
The "Buffer" creates a line above/below the "Birdy", derived from the measured ATR at the conception of the "Birdy" multiplied with a factor ("Buffer").
When the closing price crosses the "Birdy", it must also surpass this buffer line to produce a valid signal, lowering the risk of clutter as a result.
🔶 DETAILS
Birdies are derived from a circle that connects two Swing points. The left-wing curve originates from the most recent "Swing point" to the last value on the circle before crossing its midline. The mirror image of the left wing creates the right wing.
Enabling "Origine" will draw a line from the last Swing to the first.
🔹 Style
The publication includes a style setting with four options.
The first, "Birdy," shows a bird-like shape derived from a circle connecting the last Swing High and Swing Low.
The second option holds everything from the first option but connects both wingtips, providing potential horizontal levels of interest.
When setting "Birdy" to "None", the visual breakout signals will not defer from previous settings, but the focus is shifted towards the fill color, which can help detect potential trend shift.
A fourth setting, "Left Wing", will only show the left part of the "Birdy" pattern, removing the right part from the equation. This will change the visual breakout signals, providing alternative signals.
🔶 SETTINGS
Swing Length: The period used for swing detection, with higher values returning longer-term Swing Levels.
🔹 Validation
Minimum X-Distance: The minimum amount of bars between subsequent Swings
Minimum Y-Distance: The minimum amount of bars between subsequent Swings
Buffer (Multiple of ATR)
🔹 Style
Bullish Patterns: Enable / color
Bearish Patterns: Enable / color
Buffer Zone: Show / Color
Color Fill: Show color fill between two Birdies (if available)
Origine: Show the line between both Swing Points
🔹 Calculation
Calculated Bars: Allows the usage of fewer bars for performance/speed improvement
HMA Z-Score Probability Indicator by Erika BarkerThis indicator is a modified version of SteverSteves's original work, enhanced by Erika Barker. It visually represents asset price movements in terms of standard deviations from a Hull Moving Average (HMA), commonly known as a Z-Score.
Key Features:
Z-Score Calculation: Measures how many standard deviations the current price is from its HMA.
Hull Moving Average (HMA): This moving average provides a more responsive baseline for Z-Score calculations.
Flexible Display: Offers both area and candlestick visualization options for the Z-Score.
Probability Zones: Color-coded areas showing the statistical likelihood of prices based on their Z-Score.
Dynamic Price Level Labels: Displays actual price levels corresponding to Z-Score values.
Z-Table: An optional table showing the probability of occurrence for different Z-Score ranges.
Standard Deviation Lines: Horizontal lines at each standard deviation level for easy reference.
How It Works:
The indicator calculates the Z-Score by comparing the current price to its HMA and dividing by the standard deviation. This Z-Score is then plotted on a separate pane below the main chart.
Green areas/candles: Indicate prices above the HMA (positive Z-Score)
Red areas/candles: Indicate prices below the HMA (negative Z-Score)
Color-coded zones:
Green: Within 1 standard deviation (high probability)
Yellow: Between 1 and 2 standard deviations (medium probability)
Red: Beyond 2 standard deviations (low probability)
The HMA line (white) shows the trend of the Z-Score itself, offering insight into whether the asset is becoming more or less volatile over time.
Customization Options:
Adjust lookback periods for Z-Score and HMA calculations
Toggle between area and candlestick display
Show/hide probability fills, Z-Table, HMA line, and standard deviation bands
Customize text color and decimal rounding for price levels
Interpretation:
This indicator helps traders identify potential overbought or oversold conditions based on statistical probabilities. Extreme Z-Score values (beyond ±2 or ±3) often suggest a higher likelihood of mean reversion, while consistent Z-Scores in one direction may indicate a strong trend.
By combining the Z-Score with the HMA and probability zones, traders can gain a nuanced understanding of price movements relative to recent trends and their statistical significance.
Support and Resistance Signals MTF [LuxAlgo]The Support and Resistance Signals MTF indicator aims to identify undoubtedly one of the key concepts of technical analysis Support and Resistance Levels and more importantly, the script aims to capture and highlight major price action movements, such as Breakouts , Tests of the Zones , Retests of the Zones , and Rejections .
The script supports Multi-TimeFrame (MTF) functionality allowing users to analyze and observe the Support and Resistance Levels/Zones and their associated Signals from a higher timeframe perspective.
This script is an extended version of our previously published Support-and-Resistance-Levels-with-Breaks script from 2020.
Identification of key support and resistance levels/zones is an essential ingredient to successful technical analysis.
🔶 USAGE
Support and resistance are key concepts that help traders understand, analyze and act on chart patterns in the financial markets. Support describes a price level where a downtrend pauses due to demand for an asset increasing, while resistance refers to a level where an uptrend reverses as a sell-off happens.
The creation of support and resistance levels comes as a result of an initial imbalance of supply/demand, which forms what we know as a swing high or swing low. This script starts its processing using the swing highs/lows. Swing Highs/Lows are levels that many of the market participants use as a historical reference to place their trading orders (buy, sell, stop loss), as a result, those price levels potentially become and serve as key support and resistance levels.
One of the important features of the script is the signals it provides. The script follows the major price movements and highlights them on the chart.
🔹 Breakouts (non-repaint)
A breakout is a price moving outside a defined support or resistance level, the significance of the breakout can be measured by examining the volume. This script is not filtering them based on volume but provides volume information for the bar where the breakout takes place.
🔹 Retests
Retest is a case where the price action breaches a zone and then revisits the level breached.
🔹 Tests
Test is a case where the price action touches the support or resistance zones.
🔹 Rejections
Rejections are pin bar patterns with high trading volume.
Finally, Multi TimeFrame (MTF) functionality allows users to analyze and observe the Support and Resistance Levels/Zones and their associated Signals from a higher timeframe perspective.
🔶 SETTINGS
The script takes into account user-defined parameters to detect and highlight the zones, levels, and signals.
🔹 Support & Resistance Settings
Detection Timeframe: Set the indicator resolution, the users may examine higher timeframe detection on their chart timeframe.
Detection Length: Swing levels detection length
Check Previous Historical S&R Level: enables the script to check the previous historical levels.
🔹 Signals
Breakouts: Toggles the visibility of the Breakouts, enables customization of the color and the size of the visuals
Tests: Toggles the visibility of the Tests, enables customization of the color and the size of the visuals
Retests: Toggles the visibility of the Retests, enables customization of the color and the size of the visuals

L&S Volatility Index Refurbished█ Introduction
This is my second version of the L&S Volatility Index, hence the name "Refurbished".
The first version can be found at this link:
The reason I released a separate version is because I rewrote the source code from scratch with the aim of both improving the indicator and staying as close as possible to the original concept.
I feel that the first version was somewhat exotic and polluted in relation to the indicator originally described by the authors.
In short, the main idea remains the same, however, the way of presenting the result has been changed, reiterating what was said.
█ CONCEPTS
The L&S Volatility Index measures the volatility of price in relation to a moving average.
The indicator was originally described by Brazilian traders Alexandre Wolwacz (Stormer) and Fábio Figueiredo (Vlad) from L&S Educação Financeira.
Basically, this indicator can be used in two ways:
1. In a mean reversion strategy, when there is an unusual distance from it;
2. In a trend following strategy, when the price is in an acceptable region.
As an indicator of volatility, the greatest utility is shown in first case.
This is because it allows identifying abnormal prices, extremely stretched in relation to an average, including market crashes.
How the calculation is done:
First, the distance of the price from a given average in percentage terms is measured.
Then, the historical average volatility is obtained.
Finally the indicator is calculated through the ratio between the distance and the historical volatility.
According to the description proposed by the creators, when the L&S Volatility Index is above 30 it means that the price is "stretched".
The closer to 100 the more stretched.
When it reaches 0, it means the price is on average.
█ What to look for
Basically, you should look at non-standard prices.
How to identify it?
When the oscillator is outside the Dynamic Zone and/or the Fixed Zone (above 30), it is because the price is stretched.
Nothing on the market is guaranteed.
As with the RSI, it is not because the RSI is overbought or oversold that the price will necessarily go down or up.
It is critical to know when NOT to buy, NOT to sell or NOT to do anything.
It is always important to consider the context.
█ Improvements
The following improvements have been implemented.
It should be noted that these improvements can be disabled, thus using the indicator in the "purest" version, the same as the one conceived by the creators.
Resources:
1. Customization of limits and zones:
2. Customization of the timeframe, which can be different from the current one.
3. Repaint option (prints the indicator in real time even if the bar has not yet closed. This produces more signals).
4. Customization of price inputs. This affects the calculation.
5. Customization of the reference moving average (the moving average used to calculate the price distance).
6. Customization of the historical volatility calculation strategy.
- Accumulated ATR: calculates the historical volatility based on the accumulated ATR.
- Returns: calculates the historical volatility based on the returns of the source.
Both forms of volatility calculation have their specific utilities and applications.
Therefore, it is worthwhile to have both approaches available, and one should not necessarily replace the other.
Each method has its advantages and may be more appropriate in different contexts.
The first approach, using the accumulated ATR, can be useful when you want to take into account the implied volatility of prices over time,
reflecting broader price movements and higher impact events. It can be especially relevant in scenarios where unexpected events can drastically affect prices.
The second approach, using the standard deviation of returns, is more common and traditionally used to measure historical volatility.
It considers the variability of prices relative to their average, providing a more general measure of market volatility.
Therefore, both forms of calculation have their merits and can be useful depending on the context and specific analysis needs.
Having both options available gives users flexibility in choosing the most appropriate volatility measure for the situation at hand.
* When choosing "Accumulated ATR", if the indicator becomes difficult to see, there are 3 possibilities:
a) manually adjust the Fixed Zone value;
b) disable the Fixed Zone and use only the Dynamic Zone;
c) normalize the indicator.
7. Signal line (a moving average of the oscillator).
8. Option to normalize the indicator or not.
9. Colors to facilitate direction interpretation.
Since the L&S is a volatility indicator, it does not show whether the price is rising or falling.
This can sometimes confuse the user.
That said, the idea here is to show certain colors where the price is relative to the average, making it easier to analyze.
10. Alert messages for automations.
Support & Resistance Dynamic [LuxAlgo]The Support & Resistance Dynamic indicator aims to return real-time predictive support and resistance zones that are relevant to a detected trend. This makes this indicator similar to our previously published Predictive Ranges indicator.
Users can additionally extend the most recent historical support and resistance zones.
🔶 USAGE
Hypothetical resistance levels in an up-trend or supports in a down-trend would tend to be broken more easily, as such the indicator primary objective is to return reliable real-time support and resistance levels by taking this into account.
When the market is up-trending the indicator will only return support zones, while a down-trending market will cause the indicator to only return resistance zones.
If the price significantly breaks a support/resistance, rendering it unreliable, it can be a sign of a potential reversal.
Users can return support/resistance levels/zones for shorter-term trends by reducing the Multiplicative Factor setting.
🔹 Extension
Users can extend past estimated support/resistance levels, the amount of extended levels is determined by the users. Certain levels can stay relevant in the future, and can also aid in measuring the significance of a breakout, with further past levels being reached being indicative of more significant trends.
🔶 DETAILS
To determine if the price is up-trending or down-trending in order to show either support or resistance, the same method used in the predictive ranges script is used. A central tendency is estimated, if price significantly deviates from it upward an uptrend is detected, else a significant deviation downward would indicate a downtrend.
The central tendency estimate is used for the construction of the support and resistance levels.
🔶 SETTINGS
Multiplicative Factor: Determines the frequency at which new supports/resistances are returned, with lower values returning more frequent levels/zones.
ATR Length: ATR averaging length used as deviation threshold for the central tendency estimate.
Extend Last: Determines the amount of most recent historical supports/resistances to extend to the latest bar.
Dynamic Trailing Support & ResistanceDynamic Trailing Support & Resistance (DTSR) :
Hello Traders !!
DTSR is an objective dynamic support and resistance zone channel, Unlike subjective technical analysis DTSR finds S&R zones by calculating a range threshold within a given range over a specified lookback. FIB (Fibonacci) 38.2% and 61.8% retracement zones are also plotted for intermediate zones of resistance / support within the main resistance / support zones.
Plots
▾ <=> Close or high >= Trailing Resistance
▴ <=> Close or low <= Trailing Support
HH = The Highest High over the given Lookback period
LL = Lowest Low over the given Lookback period
Proximal Lines = The trailing S&R zones over the given lookback
Distal Lines = The HH or LL over the given lookback
DTSR Formula
note : This idea is not original to me, and was inspired by another creators work
Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI) Refurbished▮Introduction
Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI) Indicator is a technical indicator used in technical analysis of stocks and other financial instruments.
It was developed by William Blau in 1993 and is considered to be a momentum indicator that can help identify trend reversal points.
Basically, it's a combination of the True Strength Index with a signal line to help identify turning points in the market.
SMI uses the stochastic formula to compare the current closing price of an asset with the maximum and minimum price range over a specific period.
He then compares this ratio to a short-term moving average to create an indicator that oscillates between -100 and +100.
When the SMI is above 0, it is considered positive, indicating that the current price is above the short-term moving average.
When it is below 0, it is considered negative, indicating that the current price is below the short-term moving average.
Traders use the SMI to identify potential trend reversal points.
When the indicator reaches an extreme level above +40 or below -40, a trend reversal is possible.
Furthermore, traders also watch for divergences between the SMI and the asset price to identify potential trading opportunities.
It is important to remember that the SMI is a technical indicator and as such should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to get a complete picture of the market situation.
▮ Improvements
The following features were added:
1. 7 color themes, for TSI, Signal and Histogram.
2. Possibility to customize moving average type for TSI/Signal.
3. Dynamic Zones.
4. Crossing Alerts.
5. Alert points on specific ranges.
5. Coloring of bars according to TSI/Signal/Histogram.

▮ About Dynamic Zones
'Most indicators use a fixed zone for buy and sell signals.
Here's a concept based on zones that are responsive to the past levels of the indicator.'
The concept of Dynamic Zones was described by Leo Zamansky ( Ph .D.) and David Stendahl, in the magazine of Stocks & Commodities V15:7 (306-310).
Basically, a statistical calculation is made to define the extreme levels, delimiting a possible overbought/oversold region.
Given user-defined probabilities, the percentile is calculated using the method of Nearest Rank.
It is calculated by taking the difference between the data point and the number of data points below it, then dividing by the total number of data points in the set.
The result is expressed as a percentage.
This provides a measure of how a particular value compares to other values in a data set, identifying outliers or values that are significantly higher or lower than the rest of the data.
▮ What to look for
1. Divergences/weakening of a trend/reversal:
2. Supports, resistances, pullbacks:
3. Overbought/Oversold Points:

Flare🔶 METHODS
• Pine Script™ introduces methods ( 1 , 2 )! Much kuddos for the developers, Tradingview, and all who has worked on it!
• This educational script will show the simplified way of writing built-in methods, not to create a new method.
🔹 Simplified way of writing built-in methods:
· Instead of:
newArray = array.new()
array.unshift(newArray, 1)
lin = line.new(na, na, na, na)
line.set_xy1(lin, bar_index , close)
line.set_xy2(lin, bar_index + 10, close)
label newLabel = label.new(bar_index, high)
if barstate.islast
label.delete(newLabel)
· We now can write it like this:
newArray = array.new()
newArray.unshift(1)
lin = line.new(na, na, na, na)
lin.set_xy1(bar_index , close)
lin.set_xy2(bar_index + 10, close)
label newLabel = label.new(bar_index, high)
if barstate.islast
newLabel.delete()
——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
· When using sometimes brackets are necessary:
label lab = label.new(bar_index, high)
if barstate.islast
label.set_color(lab, color.red)
label.delete(lab )
· ->
label lab = label.new(bar_index, high)
if barstate.islast
lab.set_color(color.red)
(lab ).delete() // lab .delete() doesn't compile at the moment
——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
🔶 OVERVIEW OF SCRIPT
• The basic principles are:
· Find 1 point ( close ) x bars back from current bar ( settings: 'x close back').
· Create a 'Flare' shaped object from that point to current bar or further (dependable of "Width of Flare").
· Calculate where current close is located versus the Flare lines.
· On that bases, change colour and draw plotshapes.
· Below bar if current close is located in the upper part of the Flare
· Above bar if current close is located in the lower part of the Flare
· Above & Below if located in the middle part of the Flare
-> Above & Below colours has 3 different colours (adjustable), dependable on the position
🔶 EXAMPLES
· Neutral zone:
· Light Bullish zone:
· Bullish zone:
· Very Bullish / Overbought zone:
· Light Bearish zone:
· Bearish zone:
· Very Bearish / Oversold zone:
🔶 TECHNIQUES
🔹 I. Make a User Defined Type (UDT) Flare, with:
· 5x linefill - array of linefill
· int iDir, which captures the direction (current location of close in Flare)
· color cCol, this is a colour variable in relation to the direction.
🔹 II. Different functions will add a new Flare object, and update the values on each bar.
· Explanation of each function can be found in the script.
🔶 EXTRA's
· The input.color() is located in the function set_flare_B(flare obj)
· Best to put the inputs at the beginning of the script, I included this alternative just to show it is possible (but mostly not ideal)
· Background colour (settings: Bgcolor) can be enabled for better visibility of colours
34 EMA Bands [v2]Updating an older concept here with some more oversold/overbought zones.
Pretty self explanatory, red zone indicate overbought zones and green zone is a oversold. Often, price likes to bounce off of the lower bounds of these zones, but it can sometimes extend all the way through the zone onto the upper boundary.
There are many lines to this indicator, i prefer using it with all the lines off except the outermost ones. However, you can edit it if it suits you better.
Source code is open, so any suggestions to improve its accuracy are welcome :)
