Hobble Skirt Bottom Impede Fashion (by ChartArt)A very noisy indicator to detect bottoms and new uptrends.
Original idea by ChartArt.
First published indicator - constructive criticism welcome.
(The indicator is experimental and doesn't work most of the time.)
I would describe it as an "coincident indicator". The signals occur at approximately the same time as the conditions it signifies. Rather than predicting future events it changes at the same time to the upside as possible bottoms show up.
P.S. hobble skirt is a syllable of chart, that is how I came up with the name
"A hobble skirt was a skirt with a narrow enough hem to significantly impede the wearer's stride, and was a short-lived fashion trend around the turn of the twentieth century."
P.P.S. Bottoms are also short-lived...

Renko Chart EmulationRenko charts are a popular tool in technical analysis, known for their ability to filter out market noise and focus purely on price movements. Unlike traditional candlestick or bar charts, Renko charts are not time-based but are constructed using bricks that represent a fixed price movement. This makes them particularly useful for identifying trends and key levels of support and resistance. While Renko charts are commonly found on platforms with specialized charting capabilities, they can also be emulated in Pine Script as a line indicator.
The Renko emulation indicator in Pine Script calculates the movement of price based on a user-defined brick size. Whenever the price moves up or down by an amount equal to or greater than the brick size, a new level is plotted, indicating a shift in price direction. This approach helps traders visualize significant price moves without the distractions of smaller fluctuations. By plotting the Renko levels as a continuous line and coloring it based on direction, this indicator provides a clean and straightforward representation of market trends.
Traders can use this Renko emulation line to identify potential entry and exit points, as well as to confirm ongoing trends. The simplicity of Renko charts makes them a favorite among those who prefer a minimalist approach to technical analysis. However, it is essential to choose an appropriate brick size that aligns with the volatility of the trading instrument. A smaller brick size may result in frequent signals, while a larger one can smooth out the chart, focusing only on the most substantial price movements. This script offers a flexible solution for incorporating Renko-style analysis into any trading strategy.
[TheMandalor] Invert or Mirror Chart SUPPORT RESSISTANTThis is a new idea to find supports and resistant’s for any charts.
What is the concept of this indicator:
1. It is used close and inverted it on chart
2. When the real chart and the inverted chart is crossing together several times, this point will be important on this concept that means the price will care about this point again and again.
3. When you draw a horizontal line as support and resistance check it with this indicator too, if your support and resistance is touched with inverted chart, it will be more important than normal support/ resistance.
4. This indicator has plot candle too, it means you can compare regular chart with the inverted one at same time if you need.
Here is the steps:
1. When you add the indicator to your chart it will add your ticker as inverted.
2. Change your chart type to line chart.
3. Fix your scale in both sides left and right (the indicator's side is on the left).
4. Now you must have two type of line charts, one is yours (The blue one) and one is plotted with this indicator (The purple one).
5. Draw a horizontal line where these two lines have more crossing at the middle of chart, this line will be a powerful line later.
6. Find other more crossed points and draw horizontal line for them too.
7. Now you can see these indicator's support and resistant’s, now you can remove the indicator and watch how the price will touch, reverse, or stay on your new type of support and resistant’s lines.
PS: I have added candle plotting too if you need it.
Crab Harmonic Pattern [TradingFinder] Harmonic Chart patterns🔵 Introduction
The Crab pattern is recognized as a reversal pattern in technical analysis, utilizing Fibonacci numbers and percentages for chart analysis. This pattern can predict suitable price reversal areas on charts using Fibonacci ratios.
The structure of the Crab pattern can manifest in both bullish and bearish forms on the chart. By analyzing this structure, traders can identify points where the price direction changes, which are essential for making informed trading decisions.
The pattern's structure is visually represented on charts as shown below. To gain a deeper understanding of the Crab pattern's functionality, it is beneficial to become familiar with its various harmonic forms.
🟣 Types of Crab Patterns
The Crab pattern is categorized into two types based on its structure: bullish and bearish. The bullish Crab is denoted by the letter M, while the bearish Crab is indicated by the letter W in technical analysis.
Typically, a bullish Crab pattern signals a potential price increase, whereas a bearish Crab pattern suggests a potential price decrease on the chart.
The direction of price movement depends significantly on the price's position within the chart. By identifying whether the pattern is bullish or bearish, traders can determine the likely direction of the price reversal.
Bullish Crab :
Bearish Crab :
🔵 How to Use
When trading using the Crab pattern, crucial parameters include the end time of the correction and the point at which the chart reaches its peak. Generally, the best time to buy is when the chart nears the end of its correction, and the best time to sell is when it approaches the peak price.
As we discussed, the end of the price correction and the time to reach the peak are measured using Fibonacci ratios. By analyzing these levels, traders can estimate the end of the correction in the chart waves and select a buying position for their stock or asset upon reaching that ratio.
🟣 Bullish Crab Pattern
In this pattern, the stock price is expected to rise at the pattern's completion, transitioning into an upward trend. The bullish Crab pattern usually begins with an upward trend, followed by a price correction, after which the stock resumes its upward movement.
If a deeper correction occurs, the price will change direction at some point on the chart and rise again towards its target price. Price corrections play a critical role in this pattern, as it aims to identify entry and exit points using Fibonacci ratios, allowing traders to make purchases at the end of the corrections.
When the price movement lines are connected on the chart, the bullish Crab pattern resembles the letter M.
🟣 Bearish Crab Pattern
In this pattern, the stock price is expected to decline at the pattern's completion, leading to a strong downward trend. The bearish Crab pattern typically starts with a price correction in a downward trend and, after several fluctuations, reaches a peak where the direction changes downward, resulting in a significant price drop.
This pattern uses Fibonacci ratios to identify points where the price movement is likely to change direction, enabling traders to exit their positions at the chart's peak. When the price movement lines are connected on the chart, the bearish Crab pattern resembles the letter W.

Fair Value Gap ChartThe Fair Value Gap chart is a new charting method that displays fair value gap imbalances as Japanese candlesticks, allowing traders to quickly see the evolution of historical market imbalances.
The script is additionally able to compute an exponential moving average using the imbalances as input.
🔶 USAGE
The Fair Value Gap chart allows us to quickly display historical fair value gap imbalances. This also allows for filtering out potential noisy variations, showing more compact trends.
Most like other charting methods, we can draw trendlines/patterns from the displayed results, this can be helpful to potentially predict future imbalances locations.
Users can display an exponential moving average computed from the detected fvg's imbalances. Imbalances above the ema can be indicative of an uptrend, while imbalances under the ema are indicative of a downtrend.
Note that due to pinescript limitations a maximum of 500 lines can be displayed, as such displaying the EMA prevent candle wicks from being displayed.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Candle Structure
The Fair Value Gap Chart is constructed by keeping a record of all detected fair value gaps on the chart. Each fvg is displayed as a candlestick, with the imbalance range representing the body of the candle, and the range of the imbalance interval being used for the wicks.
🔹 EMA Source Input
The exponential moving average uses the imbalance range to get its input source, the extremity of the range used depends on whether the fvg is bullish or bearish.
When the fvg is bullish, the maximum of the imbalance range is used as ema input, else the minimum of the fvg imbalance is used.
Season ChartThis overlay is built on the idea of seasonal charts.
It is constructed by taking the percentage change from each close and recording that change for every trading day of any year that is within the sample. We then take the average for each day of all the years.
These averages are then cumulated to create the chart as per traditional seasonal chart construction.
I have also taken a trimmed mean of the averages to try and dampen the impact one off moves that may have a dramatic effect on the daily averages (for example the crash to $0 in oil in April 2020) however, even removing 10% may not guarantee one off moves won’t affect the average.
The construction of the chart is completely dependent on the data provided by TradingView and so it is recommended that if longer sample sizes are used, the user go back to check that the years contained within the sample have a full history. Some data may have large gaps in their history and this can distort the seasonality readings.
I have attempted to align the chart with the first trading day of the year, but the start of some months may be out by a day or two as it becomes difficult to track all weeks with differing market holidays closures each year and this in turn varies the total amount of actual trading days in each year as well as leap years.
This overlay is designed for the Daily time frame only and will not work on Crypto or any other instrument that trades outside of usual business weekdays. Future updates may include the ability to adapt to Crypto instruments.

█ CONCEPTS
Green and Red Candles
• A green candle is one that closes with a close price equal to or above the price it opened.
• A red candle is one that closes with a close price that is lower than the price it opened.
Swing Highs and Swing Lows
• A swing high is a green candle or series of consecutive green candles followed by a single red candle to complete the swing and form the peak.
• A swing low is a red candle or series of consecutive red candles followed by a single green candle to complete the swing and form the trough.
Peak and Trough Prices
• The peak price of a complete swing high is the high price of either the red candle that completes the swing high or the high price of the preceding green candle, depending on which is higher.
• The trough price of a complete swing low is the low price of either the green candle that completes the swing low or the low price of the preceding red candle, depending on which is lower.
Historic Peaks and Troughs
The current, or most recent, peak and trough occurrences are referred to as occurrence zero. Previous peak and trough occurrences are referred to as historic and ordered numerically from right to left, with the most recent historic peak and trough occurrences being occurrence one.
Upper Trends
• A return line uptrend is formed when the current peak price is higher than the preceding peak price.
• A downtrend is formed when the current peak price is lower than the preceding peak price.
• A double-top is formed when the current peak price is equal to the preceding peak price.
Lower Trends
• An uptrend is formed when the current trough price is higher than the preceding trough price.
• A return line downtrend is formed when the current trough price is lower than the preceding trough price.
• A double-bottom is formed when the current trough price is equal to the preceding trough price.
Range
The range is simply the difference between the current peak and current trough prices, generally expressed in terms of points or pips.
Retracement and Extension Ratios
Retracement and extension ratios are calculated by dividing the current range by the preceding range and multiplying the answer by 100. Retracement ratios are those that are equal to or below 100% of the preceding range and extension ratios are those that are above 100% of the preceding range.
Measurement Tolerances
Tolerance refers to the allowable variation or deviation from a specific value or dimension. It is the range within which a particular measurement is considered to be acceptable or accurate. I have applied this concept in my pattern detection logic and have set default tolerances where applicable, as perfect patterns are, needless to say, very rare.
Chart Patterns
Generally speaking price charts are nothing more than a series of swing highs and swing lows. When demand outweighs supply over a period of time prices swing higher and when supply outweighs demand over a period of time prices swing lower. These swing highs and swing lows can form patterns that offer insight into the prevailing supply and demand dynamics at play at the relevant moment in time.
‘Let us assume… that you the reader, are not a member of that mysterious inner circle known to the boardrooms as “the insiders”… But it is fairly certain that there are not nearly so many “insiders” as amateur trader supposes and… It is even more certain that insiders can be wrong… Any success they have, however, can be accomplished only by buying and selling… hey can do neither without altering the delicate poise of supply and demand that governs prices. Whatever they do is sooner or later reflected on the charts where you… can detect it. Or detect, at least, the way in which the supply-demand equation is being affected… So, you do not need to be an insider to ride with them frequently… prices move in trends. Some of those trends are straight, some are curved; some are brief and some are long and continued… produced in a series of action and reaction waves of great uniformity. Sooner or later, these trends change direction; they may reverse (as from up to down), or they may be interrupted by some sort of sideways movement and then, after a time, proceed again in their former direction… when a price trend is in the process of reversal… a characteristic area or pattern takes shape on the chart, which becomes recognisable as a reversal formation… Needless to say, the first and most important task of the technical chart analyst is to learn to know the important reversal formations and to judge what they may signify in terms of trading opportunities’ (Edwards & Magee, 1948).
This is as true today as it was when Edwards and Magee were writing in the first half of the last Century, study your patterns and make judgements for yourself about what their implications truly are on the markets and timeframes you are interested in trading.
Over the years, traders have come to discover a multitude of chart and candlestick patterns that are supposed to pertain information on future price movements. However, it is never so clear cut in practice and patterns that where once considered to be reversal patterns are now considered to be continuation patterns and vice versa. Bullish patterns can have bearish implications and bearish patterns can have bullish implications. As such, I would highly encourage you to do your own backtesting.
There is no denying that chart patterns exist, but their implications will vary from market to market and timeframe to timeframe. So it is down to you as an individual to study them and make decisions about how they may be used in a strategic sense.
█ INPUTS
• Change pattern and label colours
• Show or hide patterns individually
• Adjust pattern ratios and tolerances
• Set or remove alerts for individual patterns
█ NOTES
I have decided to rename some of my previously published patterns based on the way in which the pattern completes. If the pattern completes on a swing high then the pattern is considered bearish, if the pattern completes on a swing low then it is considered bullish. This may seem confusing but it makes sense when you come to backtesting the patterns and want to use the most recent peak or trough prices as stop losses. Patterns that can complete on both a swing high and swing low are for such reasons treated as neutral, namely all broadening and wedge variations. I trust that it is quite self-evident that double and triple bottom patterns are considered bullish while double and triple top patterns are considered bearish, so I did not feel the need to rename those.
The patterns that have been renamed and what they have been renamed to, are as follows:
• Ascending Elliot Waves to Bearish Elliot Waves
• Descending Elliot Waves to Bullish Elliot Waves
• Ascending Head and Shoulders to Bearish Ascending Head and Shoulders
• Descending Head and Shoulders to Bearish Descending Head and Shoulders
• Head and Shoulders to Bearish Head and Shoulders
• Ascending Inverse Head and Shoulders to Bullish Ascending Head and Shoulders
• Descending Inverse Head and Shoulders to Bullish Descending Head and Shoulders
• Inverse Head and Shoulders to Bullish Head and Shoulders
You can test the patterns with your own strategies manually by applying the indicator to your chart while in bar replay mode and playing through the history. You could also automate this process with PineScript by using the conditions from my swing and pattern libraries as entry conditions in the strategy tester or your own custom made strategy screener.
█ LIMITATIONS
All green and red candle calculations are based on differences between open and close prices, as such I have made no attempt to account for green candles that gap lower and close below the close price of the preceding candle, or red candles that gap higher and close above the close price of the preceding candle. This may cause some unexpected behaviour on some markets and timeframes. I can only recommend using 24-hour markets, if and where possible, as there are far fewer gaps and, generally, more data to work with.

Propulsion Blocks | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Propulsion Blocks indicator! This new indicator can find & render ICT's propulsion blocks in the current ticker. It's highly customizable with detection, invalidation and style settings. For more information, please visit the "HOW DOES IT WORK ?" section.
Features of the new Propulsion Blocks indicator :
Render Bullish & Bearish Propulsion Blocks
Customizable Algorithm
Enable / Disable Historic Zones
Visual Customizability
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Order blocks occur when there is a high amount of market orders exist on a price range. It is possible to find order blocks using specific formations on the chart. One of which this indicator uses requires a large engulfing candlestick right after another one of the opposite direction. Then if the price comes back to retest the area that two candlesticks create, then it's an order block pattern.
Propulsion blocks are a specific type of order block used in the trading methodology. They build on the concept of order blocks and aim to identify potential areas for strong price movements. They are detected when a candlestick wicks to any existing order block, retesting it. Then a strong momentum in the direction of the order block is needed for the propulsion block to get created. Check this example :
You can use them as entry / exit points, or for confirmations for your trades. For example, a successful retest attempt to a bullish propulsion block might hint a strong bullish momentum. This indicator works best when used together with other ICT concepts.
🚩UNIQUENESS
Propulsion blocks can help traders identify key levels in a chart, and can be used mainly for confirmation. This indicator can identify and show them automatically in your chart, and provides customization settings for order & propulsion block detection and invalidation. Another capability of the indicator is that it combines overlapping order & propulsion blocks so you will have a clean look at the chart without any overlapping zones.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Show Historic Zones -> This setting will hide invalidated propulsion blocks if enabled.
Max Distance To Last Bar -> This setting defines the maximum range that the indicator will find propulsion blocks to the past. Higher options will make older zones visible.
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for Order Block & Propulsion Block Invalidation.
Swing Length -> Swing length is used when finding order block formations. Smaller values will result in finding smaller order blocks.
Fair Value Gap Screener | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Fair Value Gap Screener! This screener can provide information about the latest Fair Value Gaps in up to 5 tickers. You can also customize the algorithm that finds the Fair Value Gaps and the styling of the screener.
Features of the new Fair Value Gap (FVG) Screener :
Find Latest Fair Value Gaps Accross 5 Tickers
Shows Their Information Of :
Latest Status
Number Of Retests
Consumption Percent
Bullish & Bearish Volume
Customizable Algoritm / Styling
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
A Fair Value Gap generally occur when there is an imbalance in the market. They can be detected by specific formations within the chart. This screener then finds Fair Value Gaps accross 5 different tickers, and shows the latest information about them.
Status ->
Far -> The current price is far away from the FVG.
Approaching ⬆️/⬇️ -> The current price is approaching the FVG, and the direction it's approaching from.
Inside -> The price is currently inside the FVG.
Retests -> Retest means the price tried to invalidate the FVG, but failed to do so. Here you can see how many times the price retested the FVG.
Consumed -> FVGs get consumed when a Close / Wick enters the FVG zone. For example, if the price hits the middle of the FVG zone, the zone is considered 50% consumed.
Bullish / Bearish Volume -> Bullish & Bearish volume of a FVG is calculated by analyzing the bars that formed it. For example in a bullish FVG, the bullish volume is the total volume of the first 2 bars forming the FVG, and the bearish volume is the volume of the 3rd bar that forms it.
🚩UNIQUENESS
This screener can detect latest Fair Value Gaps and give information about them for up to 5 tickers. This saves the user time by showing them all in a dashboard at the same time. The screener also uniquely shows information about the number of retests and the consumed percent of the FVG, as well as it's bullish & bearish volume. We believe that this extra information will help you spot reliable FVGs easier.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. Tickers
You can set up to 5 tickers for the screener to scan Fair Value Gaps here. You can also enable / disable them and set their individual timeframes.
2. General Configuration
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for FVG Zone Invalidation.
Zone Filtering -> With "Average Range" selected, algorithm will find FVG zones in comparison with average range of last bars in the chart. With the "Volume Threshold" option, you may select a Volume Threshold % to spot FVGs with a larger total volume than average.
FVG Detection -> With the "Same Type" option, all 3 bars that formed the FVG should be the same type. (Bullish / Bearish). If the "All" option is selected, bar types may vary between Bullish / Bearish.
Detection Sensitivity -> You may select between Low, Normal or High FVG detection sensitivity. This will essentially determine the size of the spotted FVGs, with lower sensitivies resulting in spotting bigger FVGs, and higher sensitivies resulting in spotting all sizes of FVGs.
Order Blocks Screener | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Order Blocks Screener! This screener can provide information about the latest order blocks in up to 5 tickers. You can also customize the algorithm that finds the order blocks and the styling of the screener.
Features of the new Order Blocks Screener :
Find Latest Order Blocks Accross 5 Tickers
Latest Status, Restests, Bullish & Bearish Volume
Customizable Algoritm / Styling
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Order blocks occur when there is a high amount of market orders exist on a price range. It is possible to find order blocks using specific formations on the chart.
The high & low volume of order blocks should be taken into consideration while determining their strengths. The determination of the high & low volume of order blocks are similar to FVGs, in a bullish order block, the high volume is the last 2 bars' total volume, while the low volume is the oldest bar's volume. In a bearish order block scenerio, the low volume becomes the last 2 bars' total volume.
This screener then finds order blocks accross 5 different tickers, and shows the latest information about them.
Status ->
Far -> The current price is far away from the order block.
Approaching ⬆️/⬇️ -> The current price is approaching the order block, and the direction it's approaching from.
Inside -> The price is currently inside the order block.
Retests -> Retest means the price to invalidate the order block, but failed to do so. Here you can see how many times the price retested the order block.
For the bullish / bearish volume, check the "How Does It Work" section.
🚩UNIQUENESS
This screener can detect latest order blocks and give information about them for up to 5 tickers. This saves the user time by showing them all in a dashboard at the same time. The screener shows the number of the retests of the order block as an unique trait. Another unique ability of the screener is that it shows the latest valid order block's bullish and bearish volume in the dashboard.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. Tickers
You can set up to 5 tickers for the screener to scan order blocks here. You can also enable / disable them and set their individual timeframes.
2. General Configuration
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for Order Block Invalidation.
Swing Length -> Swing length is used when finding order block formations. Smaller values will result in finding smaller order blocks.
Chart Time and Price Range It is easy to loose track of time and price volatility when the chart automatically scales to the bars on the chart. This helps you keep track.
This is a very simple indicator that is designed to ensure that you're looking at a segment of the chart that is relevant to the trade you're considering in both price distance and time.
The Problem:
When looking at a chart the lowest price is at the bottom of the screen, the highest price is at the top. The time at the beginning of the chart is based on how many bars and what timeframe you're looking at.
But is the price difference between the two wide or narrow? Are you seeing minutes, hours, or days of price action?
You can get the measure tool out, but you'll change the zoom level and now its different. You change the timeframe and its different.
This Solution:
This indicator puts a table on the screen that will tell you the X/Y distance of everything that is on your chart. If your hold period is 5 minutes, why would you be looking at 3 days of price action to find s/r or make a decision on a trade?
This will show you how much price opportunity was available in the amount of time you are currently viewing. Using the PineCoders VisibleChart library, we're retrieving the time and bar_index of the beginning of the chart so that everything that is currently on the chart is measured and it adapts as that changes.
It will work with light and dark themes (you can change the colors) and can be positioned wherever you prefer to see the information.
Disclaimer: This was a quick release script. I wrote it and published the same day. There could be bugs, so send me a message or add a comment to report anything that isn't behaving correctly.
HTF Candle Boxes for LTF Charts
This indicator allows you to show an outline of a Higher Time Frame (HTF) candle on a Lower Time Frame (LTF) chart. Options include selecting the HTF interval, and an option to either show a single shaded Box for the candle (High to Low), or a shaded box for the body (Open to Close) with the High to Low shown in an unshaded box. The purpose is to easily visualise what the previous HTF candles look like as you are working on the lower charts, for example was yesterday's candle Bullish, Bearsish, indecision, a Doji etc.
Gartley Harmonic Pattern [TradingFinder] Harmonic Chart patterns🔵 Introduction
Research by H.M. Gartley and Scott Carney emphasizes the importance of harmonic patterns in technical analysis for predicting market movements. Gartley's work, particularly the Gartley 222 pattern, is detailed in his book "Profits in the Stock Market" and relies on the specific placement of points X, A, B, C, and D.
🟣 Defining the Gartley Pattern
The Gartley pattern is a powerful technical analysis tool often seen at the end of a trend, signaling a potential reversal. Ideally, it forms during the first and second waves of Elliott Wave theory, with wave XA representing wave 1 and the entire ABCD correction representing wave 2.
While patterns outside this structure are also valid, the key points of the Gartley pattern align closely with Fibonacci retracement levels. Specifically, point B corrects wave XA to the 61.8% level, point C lies between 38% and 79% of wave AB, and point D extends between 113% and 162% of wave BC.
The bullish Gartley pattern, shown below, forms at the end of a downtrend and signals a potential buying opportunity.
Bullish :
Bearish :
🔵 How to Use
🟣 Bullish Gartley Pattern
To spot a bullish Gartley pattern, follow these rules: the move from point X to point A (the first leg) must be upward. The subsequent move from point A to point B is downward, followed by an upward move from point B to point C.
Finally, the move from point C to point D is downward. On a chart, this pattern resembles the letter M. After the final leg of this pattern, prices are expected to rise from point D.
🟣 Bearish Gartley Pattern
A bearish Gartley pattern forms similarly to the bullish one but in reverse. The initial move from point X to point A should be downward. The next move from point A to point B is upward, followed by a downward move from point B to point C.
The final leg moves upward from point C to point D. This pattern appears as a W on charts, indicating that prices are likely to fall from point D after the final move.
By understanding and identifying Gartley patterns, traders can enhance their technical analysis and improve their decision-making in financial markets. These patterns, when correctly identified, offer significant insights into potential market reversals and continuation patterns.

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.
Recursive Reversal Chart Patterns [Trendoscope]Caution: This algorithm is very heavy and bound to cause timeouts. If that happens, there are few settings you can change to reduce the load. (Will explain them in the description below)
🎲 Recursive Reversal Chart Patterns Indicator
Welcome to another exploration of Zigzag and Pattern ecosystem components. Previously we derived Pitchfork and Recursive Zigzag indicators. This indicator is designed to scan and highlight few popular "Reversal Chart Patterns". Similar to other indicators in the ecosystem, this too is built on recursive zigzags.
Double Taps
Triple Taps
Cup and Handles
Head and Shoulders
Indicator however names the patterns separately for bullish and bearish formations. So, the actual names you see on the screen are
Double Top
Double Bottom
Triple Top
Triple Bottom
Cup and Handle
Inverted Cup and Handle
Head and Shoulders
Inverse Head and Shoulders
Here is a snapshot on how each category of patterns look on the chart.
🎲 Architecture
Many of you may be cursing me for publishing too many libraries. But, these are all preparations for something big. Like other indicators in the Zigzag and Patterns Ecosystem, this too uses a bunch of libraries.

🎯Pattern Selection
Having all the patterns selected on chart may also cause timeouts and will make the chart look messy. It is better to limit one or two patterns on the chart to have clear picture.
🎯Scanner Settings
🎯Indicators.
These are options to use indicators as secondary confirmation to calculate divergence. If selected, the patterns are shown only if the divergence data is inline. Option also available to plugin external indicator. These calculations are not straightforward and not easy to measure by manual inspection. This feature at present is purely experimental.
Have a go and let me know how you feel :)
Pre-market Highs & Lows on regular trading hours (RTH) chartShows pre-market highs and lows on RTH or ETH chart
-Pre-market duration user input (default is 16 'bar hours'; covering the time from S&P RTH close at 4pm >> 9:30am RTH open next day
-Displays on both RTH and ETH charts
-Written for ES (ES1! or e.g ESM2023), but tested and working on SPY, SPX
-Works across timeframes
Example usage on Electronic trading hours (ETH) chart; showing the 'bar hours' user input lookback duration visually
Random Price Action Visible Chartplots randomly generated price (closing basis) from LHS of the chart. Re-plots each time you scroll
-just a curiosity really; perhaps a lesson in seeing patterns where there are none; 'fooled by randomness' etc.
-always anchors/starts from the real close of the asset on the visible Left hand side of the chart.
-adjust ATR as you like (bigger = probably more reliable/realistic).
-adjust ATRmultiple as you like (discretionary; basically how many ATR ranges above/below last bar's random close, will the maximum random value above/below be; default is 1.5x (arbitrary).
Spread ChartThis script lets you chart a spread of a maximum of 3 tickers (one of them being the ticker in the main chart).
Y axis is the currency amount of the spread, that is calculated by this formula:
Y = PnL = quantity * price * handleValue
Y is calculated for each ticker specified, and the sum of Ys obtained is plotted.
this way it is possible to view the PnL of the spread directly.
It is necessary to specify the handle value (point value) in the script inputs (not for the main chart ticker).
A table summarizes the spread configuration, containing all inputs.
Reductionism candle chartHere I am introducing "Reductionism candle chart", in most of the case takeing away those distracting "candles", and also remaining the most of data (4 dots) for each index on the chart.
And only keeping high valuation change "price gap" filled up with candles.
For someone who don't relies on candles to their decision. Usually candles are redundant to them.
For someone who uses candle, definitely not all candles are carrying the same amount of information.
Most often less is more, in terms of representing the thing that is not related to your model.
This script the color and the volatility boundary are changeable, so no additional coding is required to use it.
Enjoy :)
Chart Timeframe Detection - FunctionChart Timeframe Detection - Function
A small and effective function to detect the current chart timeframe in minutes.
It can be used to further detect a specific chart timeframe (a daily timeframe or even a 16h39m timeframe).
The result is returned as integer.

Chart Description: Buy Low, Sell High with Market Structure
This chart utilizes a dynamic trading strategy based on Bollinger Bands, RSI, and market structure analysis to identify high-probability buy and sell signals while aligning with prevailing trends.
Key Elements:
Bollinger Bands:
The upper (red) and lower (green) bands define volatility boundaries based on standard deviations.
The middle line (blue) represents the 20-period simple moving average.
Market Structure:
Swing highs (red triangles labeled "SH") and swing lows (green triangles labeled "SL") are identified to analyze the trend.
Background colors indicate trend direction:
Green Background: Uptrend (Higher Lows).
Red Background: Downtrend (Lower Highs).
RSI Indicator:
Shown in a separate pane, with overbought (red) at 70 and oversold (green) at 30.
Helps confirm signal validity by identifying momentum extremes.
Buy and Sell Signals:
Buy Signals (Green):
Triggered when the price crosses above the lower Bollinger Band, RSI is oversold (<30), and the market is in an uptrend.
Displayed as green "BUY" labels below bars.
Sell Signals (Red):
Triggered when the price crosses below the upper Bollinger Band, RSI is overbought (>70), and the market is in a downtrend.
Displayed as red "SELL" labels above bars.
How to Use:
Trend Identification:
Follow market structure analysis to determine the current trend direction.
Trade only in the direction of the trend (e.g., buy in an uptrend, sell in a downtrend).
Signal Confirmation:
Look for signals aligning with Bollinger Bands, RSI levels, and market structure.
Ignore signals that conflict with the trend to avoid false entries.
Market Conditions:
Best suited for trending markets with clear higher lows or lower highs.
Signals in choppy or sideways markets may require additional confirmation.
Auto Chart Patterns [Trendoscope®]🎲 Introducing our most comprehensive automatic chart pattern recognition indicator.
Last week, we published an idea on how to algorithmically identify and classify chart patterns.
This indicator is nothing but the initial implementation of the idea. Whatever we explained in that publication that users can do manually to identify and classify the pattern, this indicator will do it for them.
🎲 Process of identifying the patterns.
The bulk of the logic is implemented as part of the library - chartpatterns . The indicator is a shell that captures the user inputs and makes use of the library to deliver the outcome.
🎯 Here is the list of steps executed to identify the patterns on the chart.
Derive multi level recursive zigzag for multiple base zigzag length and depth combinations.
For each zigzag and level, check the last 5 pivots or 6 pivots (based on the input setting) for possibility of valid trend line pairs.
If there is a valid trend line pair, then there is pattern.
🎯 Rules for identifying the valid trend line pairs
There should be at least two trend lines that does not intersect between the starting and ending pivots.
The upper trend line should touch all the pivot highs of the last 5 or 6 pivots considered for scanning the patterns
The lower trend line should touch all the pivot lows of the last 5 or 6 pivots considered for scanning the patterns.
None of the candles from starting pivot to ending pivot should fall outside the trend lines (above upper trend line and below lower trend line)
The existence of a valid trend line pair signifies the existence of pattern. What type of pattern it is, to identify that we need to go through the classification rules.
🎲 Process of classification of the patterns.
We need to gather the following information before we classify the pattern.
Direction of upper trend line - rising, falling or flat
Direction of lower trend line - rising, falling or flat
Characteristics of trend line pair - converging, expanding, parallel
🎯 Broader Classifications
Broader classification would include the following types.
🚩 Classification Based on Geometrical Shapes
This includes
Wedges - both trend lines are moving in the same direction. But, the trend lines are either converging or diverging and not parallel to each other.
Triangles - trend lines are moving in different directions. Naturally, they are either converging or diverging.
Channels - Both trend lines are moving in the same direction, and they are parallel to each other within the limits of error.
🚩 Classification Based on Pattern Direction
This includes
Ascending/Rising Patterns - No trend line is moving in the downward direction and at least one trend line is moving upwards
Descending/Falling Patterns - No trend line is moving in the upward direction, and at least one trend line is moving downwards.
Flat - Both Trend Lines are Flat
Bi-Directional - Both trend lines are moving in opposite direction and none of them is flat.
🚩 Classification Based on Formation Dynamics

🎲 Indicator Settings - Auto Chart Patterns
🎯 Zigzag Settings
Zigzag settings allow users to select the number of zigzag combinations to be used for pattern scanning, and also allows users to set zigzag length and depth combinations.
🎯 Scanning Settings
Number of Pivots - This can be either 5 or 6. Represents the number of pivots used for identification of patterns.
Error Threshold - Error threshold used for initial trend line validation.
Flat Threshold - Flat angle threshold is used to identify the slope and direction of trend lines.
Last Pivot Direction - Filters patterns based on the last pivot direction. The values can be up, down, both, or custom. When custom is selected, then the individual pattern specific last pivot direction setting is used instead of the generic one.
Verify Bar Ratio - Provides option to ignore extreme patterns where the ratios of zigzag lines are not proportionate to each other.
Avoid Overlap - When selected, the patterns that overlap with existing patterns will be ignored while scanning. Meaning, if the new pattern starting point falls between the start and end of an existing pattern, it will be ignored.
🎯 Group Classification Filters
Allows users to enable disable patterns based on group classifications.
🚩 Geometric Shapes Based Classifications
Wedges - Rising Wedge Expanding, Falling Wedge Expanding, Rising Wedge Contracting, Falling Wedge Contracting.

These are the settings that determine the indicator display. The details are provided in the tooltips and are self explanatory.
🎯 Alerts
A basic alert message is enabled upon detection of new pattern on the chart.
Tick based chart [DotH]Version 1.0 - 2nd January 2023
Hi All,
This is my first published indicator, although I have written several hundreds for private use.
Description
Tick based chart
I got intrigued while reading about tick based charts on this page (please note this link/website owner is not affiliated with me) , so I decided to see if it would be possible to recreate this type of chart in TradingView, and here's the results.
This is an implementation for displaying a tick based chart in Trading View. There are benefits to using ticks based candles, as each candle represents the same number of "price moves" rather than an unknown number of moves.
Tick based charts are charts with candles that are rendered in the same way as traditional candles. However, instead of rendering a new candle at a specific time period,tick based candles are rendered after a set number of ticks have occured. For example, in a 50 tick chart, each candle that you see represents exactly 50 ticks, i.e. 50 price changes/moves. Having a view of what happens on the tick level, may help some traders evaluate what is happening within very large candles, or even detect a change in trend, volatility or some other metric which otherwise may not be visible using a standard chart.
Please note that this indicator DOES NOT match/synchronize timewise with the main chart in TradingView. You must view it independently. If you need to see what times are represented in the tick chart, you can look at the custom time labels and X-Axis grid lines in it to get an idea what parts of the tick based chart correspond to the main chart.
Limitations/known issues:
Currently the indicator has been restricted to 100 candles. This is for limiting the line and box usage to a max of 300 objects.
On timeframes above 1 minute, the seconds values will always be 0. In order to be able to see seconds values in the chart scale you need to be on a second level chart, which requires a premium TradingView subscription.
Changing the parameters in the settings will cause the chart to empty and start redrawing from its first candle again. This is because the tick chart is being drawn from realtime data, unlike the standard TradingView charts.
TODOs & Bugs:
Add some moving average indicators (SMA, EMA as a minimum)
Add a corresponding tick based volume chart
Create RSI, MACD, BB variations of this indicator
If you have any ideas/suggestions or bug reports, please feel free to let me know, however keep in mind that I do not have too much spare time to add things, so updates are going to be sporadic.
ABOUT CODE REUSE:
The code is free to use/change. However, if you plan to use this code to make a derivative indicator or strategy, it would be nice to know, so let me know if you feel like it!
Multiple Daily SMA EMA on Intra 1min 5min 15min ChartsThis script is helping you auto plot daily SMA EMA and extensions when you are looking at intraday charts. The script is customizable where user can select which ever levels they are interested in viewing. These daily lines act as support and resistance levels for intraday
The green line represent 20 EMA Daily
The yellow line represent 50 SMA Daily
The olive line represent 200 SMA Daily
The red line is upper Bollinger Band Daily
The black line is lower Bollinger Band Daily
To help you understand which lines are what I would recommend you add this indicator and select "D" timeframe and then see which lines you would like to view for your 1min chart or 5 min chart you can customize from the setting options which plot color you would like to view.
