Hyperfork Matrix🔱 Hyperfork Matrix 🔱 A manual Andrews Pitchfork tool with action/reaction propagation lines and lattice matrix functionality. This indicator extends Dr. Alan Andrews' and Patrick Mikula's median line methodology by automating the projection of reaction and action lines at equidistant intervals, creating a time-price grid that highlights where pivot levels intersect the matrix.
Three pitchfork variants are supported: Original, Schiff, and Modified Schiff. Each variant adjusts the anchor point position to accommodate different trend angles.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ THE METHOD
Andrews Pitchfork
Dr. Alan Andrews developed the pitchfork as a trend channel tool. The core principle: price tends to return to the median line roughly 80% of the time. When it fails to reach the median, a reversal may be developing.
A pitchfork requires three pivot points:
• Point A — The anchor (starting pivot)
• Point B — First swing in the opposite direction
• Point C — Second swing, same direction as A
The median line runs from Point A through the midpoint of B-C. Parallel lines through B and C form the channel boundaries.
Action/Reaction Principle
Based on Newton's third law ("action and reaction are equal and opposite"), this principle suggests that price movements elicit proportional reactions in the future. By projecting lines at equal intervals along the pitchfork's slope, we anticipate where these reactions may occur.
Lattice Matrix
The lattice squares pivot price levels to the matrix structure. A horizontal from your selected pivot intersects the pitchfork and propagation lines, with verticals drawn at each intersection. These verticals mark time points where price-time geometry converges—potential areas to watch for trend changes.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ HOW THE INDICATOR WORKS
This section explains the calculation flow from your inputs to the final drawing.
Step 1 — Pivot Selection
You click on the chart to select three timestamps. The indicator retrieves the high or low price at each timestamp based on your starting pivot type selection:
• Starting with "Low" creates a Low-High-Low pattern
• Starting with "High" creates a High-Low-High pattern
Step 2 — Anchor Calculation
The anchor position depends on your pitchfork variant:
• Original — Anchor stays at Point A
• Schiff — Anchor shifts 50% toward B in price (Y-axis only)
• Modified Schiff — Anchor shifts 50% toward B in both time and price
Step 3 — Median Line
A line is drawn from the anchor through the midpoint of the B-C segment. This median line defines the channel's slope and center.
Step 4 — Parallel Tines
Parallel lines are drawn through Points B and C, maintaining the median line's slope. These form the upper and lower channel boundaries.
Step 5 — Extra Parallels
If configured, additional parallel lines are drawn at equal spacing beyond B and C. The spacing equals the distance from the median to each tine.
Step 6 — Handle Length
The "handle" is the segment from the anchor to the B-C midpoint. This length becomes the unit of measurement for propagation.
Step 7 — Propagation Points
Points are placed along the median line at handle-length intervals:
• Forward points extend into the future
• Backward points extend into the past
Step 8 — Reaction Lines
Through each propagation point, a line is drawn parallel to B-C (the transversal slope). These reaction lines mark time-price zones based on the original swing rhythm, where trend changes may occur.
Step 9 — Action Lines
Through each propagation point, a line is drawn parallel to A-B (the initial move slope). These action lines project the original momentum into future price zones.
Step 10 — Lattice Grid
If enabled, a horizontal line is drawn at the price level of your selected pivot. Vertical lines are then drawn at every intersection between this horizontal and the selected line type (pitchfork, reaction, or action lines).
Step 11 — Alert Monitoring
On each bar, the indicator checks if the price has crossed any of the drawn lines. Crossings trigger alerts based on your configuration.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ PITCHFORK VARIANTS
Original (Andrews)
The classic pitchfork. The anchor remains at Point A. Best suited for strong trending markets where price respects steep channels.
Schiff
Named after Jerome Schiff, a student of Andrews. The anchor shifts halfway toward Point B in price only—same time position as A, but price is the midpoint of A and B.
This produces a less steep channel, better suited for:
• Shallow trends
• Corrective phases
• Markets where the original pitchfork angle is too aggressive
Modified Schiff
The anchor shifts halfway toward Point B in both time and price—positioned at the midpoint of the A-B segment.
This creates an even gentler slope than the standard Schiff variant. Use when:
• Trends are weak or ranging
• Price doesn't respect steeper channel angles
• You need a middle ground between Original and Schiff
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ ACTION & REACTION LINES
Reaction Lines
These run parallel to the B-C segment (the "transversal"). They represent the market's response rhythm—the swing from B to C sets a pattern that may repeat at predictable intervals.
Action Lines
These run parallel to the A-B segment (the initial impulse). They project the original momentum forward, suggesting where similar price movements may begin or end.
Forward vs Backward
• Forward Lines — Project into the future beyond the B-C midpoint
• Backward Lines — Project into the past before Point A
Most analysis focuses on forward lines, but backward lines can reveal historical confluence with past pivots.
Propagation Spacing
Lines are spaced at equal intervals defined by the handle length (anchor to B-C midpoint). This creates a rhythmic structure where each segment equals the original pitchfork's core measurement.
Action Lines
Reaction Lines
Extra Parallels with/ both Action & Reactions Line extended within the grid
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ LATTICE MATRIX
The lattice creates a grid overlay within the pitchfork structure.
Horizontal Line
A horizontal line is drawn at the price level of your selected pivot (A, B, or C). This squares the pivot's price level to find where it aligns with the matrix structure. These confluences may represent higher-probability reaction points in time.
Vertical Lines
Vertical lines are drawn at every point where the horizontal intersects your selected line source. These verticals mark time points—potential areas to watch for trend changes.
• Pitchfork & Parallels — Intersections with median and all parallel tines
• Action Lines — Intersections with action transversals
• Reaction Lines — Intersections with reaction transversals
• Action & Reaction — Both types combined
Envelope Clamping
Lattice lines are automatically clamped to stay within the pitchfork's channel envelope (bounded by the outermost parallels). This keeps the grid visually clean and focused on relevant areas.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ ALERTS
The indicator monitors price crossings and triggers alerts when the price moves through any drawn line type.
Available Alert Types
• Pitchfork Lines — Crossing the median or any parallel
• Action Lines — Crossing any action transversal (when action lines are drawn)
• Reaction Lines — Crossing any reaction transversal (when reaction lines are drawn)
• Lattice Horizontal — Crossing the horizontal price level (when lattice is enabled)
• Any Line Crossing — Combined alert for all of the above
Setting Up Alerts
1. Right-click on the indicator or use the alert menu
2. Select "Create Alert."
3. Choose the desired condition from the dropdown
4. Configure notification preferences (pop-up, email, webhook, etc.)
Alert Timing
Alerts trigger once per bar close when a crossing is detected between the previous and current bar's close prices.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ HOW TO USE
Basic Setup
1. Add the indicator to your chart
2. When prompted, click on three pivot points in sequence: A, B, C
3. Choose starting pivot type: Auto (detects pattern), Low (LHL), or High (HLH)
4. The pitchfork draws automatically
Adjusting the Pitchfork
• Change the variant (Original/Schiff/Modified Schiff) if the angle doesn't suit your trend
• Add extra parallel levels to see where price might react beyond the main channel
• Disable or Adjust price range min/max to hide parallels outside your focus area
Adding Propagation Lines
• Adjust forward offset to add/remove lines beyond auto-extend (0 = to current bar)
• Choose which line types to display: Reaction Only, Action Only, or Both
• Customize colors to distinguish line types visually
Using the Lattice
• Enable "Draw Lattice" in the Lattice settings group
• Select which pivot's price level to use for the horizontal
• Choose the intersection source that matches your analysis style
• Look for time zones where verticals cluster—these may be significant dates
Log Scale Charts
If your chart uses logarithmic scale, enable "Logarithmic Scale" in Pitchfork Settings. This ensures all calculations transform correctly for log price axes.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

Mikula's Master 360° Square of 12Mikula’s Master 360° Square of 12
An educational W. D. Gann study indicator for price and time. Anchor a compact Square of 12 table to a start point you choose. Begin from a bar’s High or Low (or set a manual start price). From that anchor you can progress or regress the table to study how price steps through cycles in either direction.
What you’re looking at :
Zodiac rail (far left): the twelve signs.
Degree rail: 24 rows in 15° steps from 15° up to 360°/0°.
Transit rail and Natal rail: track one planet per rail. Each planet is placed at its current row (℞ shown when retrograde). As longitude advances, the planet climbs bottom → top, then wraps to the bottom at the next sign; during retrograde it steps downward.
Hover a planet’s cell to see a tooltip with its exact longitude and sign (e.g., 152.4° ♌︎). The linked price cell in the grid moves with the planet’s row so you can follow a planet’s path through the zodiac as a path through price.
Price grid (right): the 12×24 Square of 12. Each column is a cycle; cells are stepped price levels from your start price using your increment.
Bottom rail: shows the current square number and labels the twelve columns in that square.
How the square is read
The square always begins at the bottom left. Read each column bottom → top. At the top, return to the bottom of the next column and read up again. One square contains twelve cycles. Because the anchor can be a High or a Low, you can progress the table upward from the anchor or regress it downward while keeping the same bottom-to-top reading order.
Iterate Square (shifting)
Iterate Square shifts the entire 12×24 grid to the next set of twelve cycles.
Square 1 shows cycles 1–12; Square 2 shows 13–24; Square 3 shows 25–36, etc.
Visibility rules
Pivot cells are table-bound. If you shift the square beyond those prices, their highlights won’t appear in the table.
A/B levels and Transit/Natal planetary lines are chart overlays and can remain visible on the table as you shift the square.
Quick use
Choose an anchor (date/time + High/Low) or enable a manual start price .
Set the increment. If you anchored with a Low and want the table to step downward from there, use a negative value.
Optional: pick Transit and Natal planets (one per rail), toggle their plots, and hover their cells for longitude/sign.
Optional: turn on A/B levels to display repeating bands from the start price.
Optional: enable swing pivots to tint matching cells after the anchor.
Use Iterate Square to shift to later squares of twelve cycles.

These are exploratory examples to spark ideas:

Path of the Planets🪐 Path of the Planets
Path of the Planets is an open-source Pine Script™ v6 indicator. It is inspired by W.D. Gann’s Path of Planets chart, specifically the Chart 5-9 artistic replica by Patrick Mikula "shown below". The script visualizes planetary positions so you can explore possible correlations with price. It overlays geocentric and heliocentric longitudes and declinations using the AstroLib library and includes an optional positions table that shows, at a glance, each body’s geocentric longitude, heliocentric longitude, and declination. This is an educational tool only and not trading advice.
Key Features
Start point: Choose a date and time to begin plotting so studies can align with market events.
Adjustments: Mirror longitudes and shift by 360° multiples to re-frame cycles.
Planets: Toggle geocentric and heliocentric longitudes and declinations for Sun, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. Moon declination is available.
Positions table: Optional color-coded table (bottom-right) with three columns labeled Geo, Helio, and Dec. Values show degrees with the zodiac sign for the longitudes and degrees for declinations.
Visualization: Solid lines for geocentric longitudes, circles for heliocentric longitudes, and columns for declinations. Includes a zero-declination reference line.
How It Works
Converts bar timestamps to Julian days via AstroLib.
Fetches positions with AstroLib types: geocentric (0), heliocentric (1), and declination (3).
Normalizes longitudes to the −180° to +180° range, applies optional mirroring and 360° shifts, and converts longitudes to zodiac sign labels for the table.
Plots and the table update only on and after the selected start time.
Usage Tips
Apply on daily or higher timeframes when studying broader cycles. For degrees, use the left scale.
Limitations at the moment: default latitude, longitude, and timezone are set to 0; aspects and retrogrades are not included; the focus is on raw paths.

Double Numbered Triangle Chart Progression | RegressionThe Double-Numbered Triangle Progression | Regression Indicator enables forecasting of support and resistance levels by progressing or regressing on the Triangle Chart from a user-selected pivot price. The indicator also plots adjustable pivots on both the chart and the Triangle Price and Time Chart.
How to use to forecast support and resistance levels:
1. Select a Pivot Point: Set the correct price to the pivot by selecting High or Low in the indicator.
2. Set Price Increment: Choose a price increment to adjust the starting price on the Triangle Chart (e.g., 1 or -0.01).
3. Rotate to adjust the number of levels on the Triangle Chart.
4. Plot Levels: Choose the Left Edge, Center, or Right Edge of the Triangle Chart to plot support and resistance levels. These levels automatically expand or decrease depending on the number of levels in step 3. The selected angle's price values are applied to the chart with labels on both sides. The left labels represent the time variable, and the right labels indicate the price. The time variable is used in conjunction with my other indicator "Price and Longitude Angles." The same goes for the Double Numbered Square of Nine indicator.
5. Review Levels: Examine the plotted support and resistance levels with recent market pivots.
6. Identify Correlations: Find the Triangle edge or center that aligns with the most market pivots.
7. The indicator plots user-adjustable pivots on both candles/bars and shows their placement on the Triangle Chart in both Progression and Regression. This visualization helps users identify which angles the highs and lows favor from the selected pivot. Pivot levels' colors can be customized. The close price is plotted on the Triangle Chart in real time with a white background.
Each market has its tendencies, favoring specific angles from the Triangle Chart. The basic idea is to choose between the Left edge, Center, or Right edge of the Triangle to forecast support and resistance levels.
Settings:
Overview:
Example of Forecasting Support and resistance level using this indicator:
In the image above, I am regressing from the significant high at a rate of $-0.008 per cell as shown on the main info label. Based on the plotted pivots, I have chosen the right edge of the triangle as it aligns with these recent pivots. I have drawn a lime green vertical line to indicate that as we add layers to the triangle chart, we introduce support and resistance levels based on the identified angle that aligns with these early pivots from the high.
In the image below, I've moved forward in time to illustrate how the initial angle chosen based on the early pivots forecasted support and resistance levels on $DOGE. Do not expect the price to turn sharply at the levels the indicator generates. As P. Mikula mentions in his work, and I apply the same with the Triangle Chart, " The Square of Nine successfully defines market price swings but does not cause the market to form pivots. "
This indicator is inspired by the methodologies detailed by Patrick Mikula in his book, The Definitive Guide to Forecasting using W.D Gann's Square of Nine. I recommend checking it out. He also mentions another use case as a Triangle Price and Time chart in his book, Gann Scientific Method Unveiled, Volume 2, where you can use my open-source indicator "Price and Longitude Angle" alongside both the Doubled Numbered Square of Nine and this Triangle Chart indicator.
FYI, I am not affiliated with Patrick Mikula in any way.
Planned improvements include adding two more angles: Left Center column and Right Center column as additional options to select.
FYI: Please ensure you select the high when regressing from a high. Also, make sure to add enough layers on the Triangle to see all the pivots. Once you've identified an angle, you can hide the table to gain back space on the chart. Use rounding precision for lower prices.
Doubled Numbered Square of Nine Progression | RegressionThe Doubled Number Square of Nine Progression | Regression Indicator enables forecasting of support and resistance levels using the SQ9 progression or regression from a user-selected pivot price. The indicator also plots adjustable pivots on both the chart and the Square of Nine.
How to use to forecast support and resistance levels:
1. Select a Pivot Point: Choose a top or bottom pivot to use as the starting point. Select High or Low in the indicator to set the correct price to the pivot.
2. Set Price Increment or Decrement: Select a price increment to advance the starting price on the Square of Nine (for example 1 or -0.01).
3. Rotate to add or decrease the number of rungs on the Square on Nine: Rotate the Square of Nine and adjust the dimensions. The horizontal levels correlate to the rotation of the Square of Nine.
4. Plot Levels: Select a Square of Nine angle to plot the support and resistance levels based on the selected increments. These levels auto expand and decrease depending on the number of rotations in step 3. The price values from each of the selected diagonal or cardinal cross are applied to the chart with labels on both left and right. Left labels represent the cell the time variable and the right label is price.
5. Review Levels: Conduct a simple review of the plotted support and resistance levels in relation to recent market pivots.
6. Identify Correlations: Identify the Square of Nine cardinal cross or diagonal cross angle that correlates with the most market pivots.
7. The indicator plots user-adjustable pivots on both candles/bars and displays their placement on the Square of Nine in both Progression and Regression. The close price is plotted on the Square of Nine in real-time with a white background. This helps users identify which angles the highs and lows favor from the selected pivot. The pivot levels' colors can be adjusted.
Each market has its tendencies, favoring specific angles from the cardinal or diagonal cross. The basic idea is to choose between the diagonal cross and cardinal cross angles to forecast support and resistance levels.

Overview:
Example on Forecasting Support and resistance level using this indicator:
In the image above, I'm progressing from the significant low at a rate of $200 per cell. Based on the plotted pivots, I've selected the 315-degree angle on the diagonal cross as it aligns with a few recent pivots. Now, I've drawn a vertical line to show that as we add rungs to the Square of Nine, we introduce support and resistance levels based on the identified angle that aligns with these early pivots from the low.
In the image below, I've moved forward in time to show how the initial angle selected based on the early pivot forecasted support and resistance levels around the high in BTC. Do not expect the price to turn sharply at the levels the indicator generates, but use it to help identify SQ9 levels that may form market turns. As P. Mikula mentions in his work, "The Square of Nine successfully defines market price swings but it does not make the market form pivots."
This indicator includes enhancements made to the Gann Square of Nine indicator originally created by @ThiagoSchmitz.
This indicator is inspired by the methodologies detailed by Patrick Mikula in his book " The Definitive Guide to Forecasting using W.D Gann's Square of Nine ." I recommend checking it out. He also mentions another use case as a Price and Time chart in his " Gann Scientific Method Unveiled, Volume 2 ." FYI, I am not affiliated with Patrick Mikula in any way.
Known Issues:
Close price plotted on the Square of Nine in Regression "from a high pivot" takes a current candle to close in order to be plotted. Progression works as expected.
Price and Longitude Angles Planetary Price & Longitude Angles Indicator
This indicator plots planetary price and longitude angles starting from a user-selected date and time, offering a distinctive lens to explore the relationship between price and planetary timing. It supports both heliocentric and geocentric, enabling flexible and in-depth planetary analysis. The angles can be plotted across any time frame for maximum versatility.
How to Use
Once the indicator is loaded, you’ll be prompted to select a starting date and time for your analysis. From there, customize it as follows:
Select Planetary Options:

This indicator is inspired by the methodologies of W.D. Gann and Patrick Mikula, expanding on concepts from Gann Scientific Method Unveiled, Volume 2. It was built using Astrolib by @BarefootJoey
I crafted this tool through dedication to support my own study of these ideas. I’m sharing it open-source not only to deepen my understanding and honor the work of Gann and Mikula, but also to invite collaboration. There’s always room for improvement—whether in functionality, accuracy, or design—and I hope others will join me in refining it. This is for those like me: eager to explore these concepts but lacking tools to experiment with. Let’s build on it together.
