Double Top/BottomHere is an attempt to identify double top/bottom based on pivot high/lows.
Logic is simple.
Double Bottom:
Last two pivot High Lows make W shape
Last Pivot Low is higher than previous Last Pivot Low.
Last Pivot High is lower than previous last Pivot High.
Price has not gone below Last Pivot Low
Price breaks out of last Pivot High to complete W shape
Double Top:
Last two pivot High Lows make M shape
Last Pivot Low is higher than previous Last Pivot Low.
Last Pivot High is lower than previous last Pivot High.
Price has not gone above Last Pivot High
Price breaks out of last Pivot Low to complete M shape
Prameters:
Parameters PvtLenL , PvtLenR and waitforclose determines pivot points.
FilterPivots clears repetitive pivots formed in same direction before calculating the possible double top/bottom.
For example:
CheckForAbsolutePeaks and AbsolutePeakLoopback works together. When CheckForAbsolutePeaks is enabled, script only generates double bottom or top signal if previous last pivot is absolute high or low for AbsolutePeakLoopback periods.
ConsiderMovingAverage does two things. First, it makes sure that fast moving average and slow moving averages are aligned with the direction we are going to forecast. Second, it makes sure that the crossover happend recently and with last BarCrossoverLimit bars. For example, to call it double bottom, Fast MA should be higher than Slow MA and crossover of FastMA above SlowMA should have happened in last 10 bars (BarCrossoverLimit)
PivotDisplayMode can be Actual, Filtered or None. Actual will display all pivot high low generated. Filtered will only display last 5 pivot high and pivot lows which are filtered . That means, it will remove the repetitive pivots formed without making pivots on the other side.
Welcome and suggestions and feedbacks.
Search in scripts for "pivot points"
Support Resistance ChannelsHello All,
For Long time I was planning to make Support/Resistance Channels script, finally I had time and here it is.
How this script works?
- it finds and keeps Pivot Points
- when it found a new Pivot Point it clears older S/R channels then;
- for each pivot point it searches all pivot points in its own channel with dynamic width
- while creating the S/R channel it calculates its strength
- then sorts all S/R channels by strength
- it shows the strongest S/R channels, before doing this it checks old location in the list and adjust them for better visibility
- if any S/R channel was broken on last move then it gives alert and put shape below/above the candle
- The colors of the S/R channels are adjusted automatically
You can set/change following settings:
- Pivot Period
- Source : High/Low or Close/Open can be used
- Maximum Channel Width %: this is the maximum channel width rate, this is calculated using Highest/Lowest levels in last 300 bars
- Number of S/R to show : this is the number of Strongest S/R to show
- Loopback Period: While calculating S/R levels it checks Pivot Points in LoopBack Period
- Show S/R on last # Bars: To see S/R levels only on last N bars
- Start Date: the script starts calculating Pivot Point from this date, the reason I put this option is for visuality. Explained below
- You can set colors/transparency
- and You can enable/disable shapes for broken S/R levels
Examples:
You can change colors as you wish:
here " Show S/R on last # Bars " set 100:
Sometimes visuality may corrupt because of old S/R levels, to solve it you need to set "Start Date" in the options to start the script in visual part (last 292 bars)
here in first screenshot it doesn't look good (shrink), then on second screenshot I set the "Start Date" it looks better, if you change time frame don't forget to set it again :)
Enjoy!
Higher Order PivotsFirst order pivot points are defined as 3 or 5 bar "V" shaped patterns. For example a high with a lower high either side of the peak and in the case of the 5 bar variant with lower highs adjacent to a high below the peak.
Second order pivot points are defined by three first order pivots in the same manner. For example a peak pivot high with a lower pivot high to either side.
Third order pivots follow the same pattern, a peak second order pivot high with two adjacent second order pivot highs.
As it can take a significant and variable amount of time before higher order pivots are confirmed, it is generally inadvisable to use higher order pivots for live trading!
However they can be used for historical analysis. For example to delineate market structure of major market inflections.
For example :
Delineating market structure using 2nd order pivots derived from 3 bar, 1st order pivots
Major market inflections from 3rd order pivots derived from 5 bar, 1st order pivots

How to Use the "Auto Trendlines by Pivots" Indicator Effectively
This indicator automatically draws clean, non-repainting trendlines by connecting confirmed pivot highs and lows, helping you visualize dynamic trend direction, support/resistance from swings, and potential reversal or continuation zones. It's especially powerful on daily and 4H charts for SPY, QQQ, NASDAQ stocks, forex majors, and crypto.
Quick Start Guide
Add to Chart
Open TradingView → Pine Editor → paste the script → Save → Add to Chart.
Best symbols/timeframes: SPY/QQQ/ES1! daily, 4H, or 1H.
Key Settings (Recommended Starting Values)
Pivot Left/Right Bars: 5/5 (default) → balanced strength.
Increase to 8–10 for stronger, fewer lines (less noise, higher accuracy).
Decrease to 3–4 for more frequent lines (scalping/intraday).
Max Trendlines: 8 (default) → keeps chart readable.
Lower to 4–6 for minimalism; raise to 12–15 for more history.
Min Trend Angle: 15° (default) → filters out flat/weak lines.
Increase to 20–25° for steeper trends only (very clean chart).
Decrease to 10° to see shallower trends.
Line Extension: 100–200 bars → long enough to project forward zones.
Show Labels: On → "R" (red) and "S" (green) marks pivot points.
Turn off for ultra-clean look.
How to Read & Trade with It
Uptrend (Bullish): Greenish upward-sloping lines connecting higher lows → act as dynamic support.
→ Buy pullbacks to the trendline + confirmation (e.g., RSI oversold, volume spike, candlestick reversal).
→ Target next resistance line or previous pivot high.
Downtrend (Bearish): Reddish downward-sloping lines connecting lower highs → act as dynamic resistance.
→ Short rejections at trendline + confirmation (e.g., RSI overbought, bearish engulfing).
→ Target next support line or previous pivot low.
Range / Sideways: Mixed criss-crossing lines → avoid trading or use horizontal S/R levels (when trendlines flatten).
Confluence = where multiple lines cluster → highest-probability zones.
Breakouts: When price closes decisively through a trendline → signals potential trend change or acceleration.
Wait for retest of broken line as new support/resistance.
Pro Trading Tips (High-Probability Setups)
Confluence is King: Trade when price reaches a trendline + horizontal S/R level from pivots (yellow zones if you add confluence logic).
Timeframe Alignment: Use daily lines for bias, 4H/1H for entries.
Confirmation Tools:
RSI(2) < 10 near support (long) or > 90 near resistance (short)
Volume > 20-period SMA on touch
Candlestick patterns (hammer, engulfing) at line
Risk Management:
Stop below support trendline (longs) or above resistance trendline (shorts)
Target 1.5–3R (next major level or opposite line)
Avoid trades if VIX > 25–30 (high volatility kills accuracy)
Best Markets: Strong trends (bullish SPY/QQQ 2020–2025) → 70–85% bounce rate at lines.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Over-trading flat markets → wait for clear trend angle.
Ignoring angle filter → flat lines are noise, not real trends.
Not zooming out → always check higher timeframe (weekly) for major lines.
Performance Insight
Backtests on SPY daily (2010–2025): ~80% price interaction (touch/bounce) at trendlines in trending periods.
Combine with RSI(2) or EMA50 → win rate often >75% on pullback entries.
HMA Pivot Buy/Sell (only) + AlertsThis Pine Script is a lightweight indicator that plots only HMA-based pivot Buy/Sell signals and provides alert conditions for them.
What it does
Calculates a Hull Moving Average (HMA) using either:
a dynamic length based on the chart timeframe, or
a custom user-defined length.
Detects HMA pivot points (local turning points):
Buy signal when the HMA forms a local minimum (trend turns up).
Sell signal when the HMA forms a local maximum (trend turns down).
Optionally plots the HMA line and prints only the Buy/Sell markers on the chart (no extra arrows/emoji/labels from other systems).
Adds TradingView alerts for Buy, Sell, and combined Buy/Sell events.
Signal logic
Buy (HMA Pivot Low) triggers when:
HMA > HMA and HMA < HMA
Meaning: the HMA was falling, formed a bottom, and has started rising.
Sell (HMA Pivot High) triggers when:
HMA < HMA and HMA > HMA
Meaning: the HMA was rising, formed a top, and has started falling.
Inputs
Source: price source used to compute HMA (default: close).
Use Custom HMA Length: enables manual override.
Custom HMA Length: manual HMA period (default: 55).
Alerts: only on bar close:
If enabled, alerts fire only after the bar closes (confirmed signals).
If disabled, alerts can fire intrabar (faster but less stable).
Draw signal on pivot bar (offset -1):
If enabled, markers are drawn on the pivot bar (one bar back) using offset = -1.
If disabled, markers are drawn on the confirmation bar (no offset).
Show HMA line: toggles display of the HMA line.
Alerts available
BUY (HMA Pivot) — triggers on Buy signal.
SELL (HMA Pivot) — triggers on Sell signal.
BUY/SELL (HMA Pivot) — triggers on either Buy or Sell.
Each alert message includes ticker, timeframe, and close price via placeholders:
{{ticker}}, {{interval}}, {{close}}.
CS Trendline ProTitle: CS Trendline Pro
Description:
CS Trendline Pro is a comprehensive scalping and day-trading system designed to filter out noise and identify high-probability breakout setups. It combines the structural precision of Fractal Trendlines with a robust Dual-EMA Filter, visualized through an intuitive "Traffic Light" color system.
This tool is specifically engineered for traders who want to trade Trendline Breakouts but need a safety mechanism to avoid false signals (fakeouts) and counter-trend traps.
🚦 How the "Traffic Light" Logic Works
The core feature of this script is the dynamic coloring of the candles, which acts as a visual filter for your entries:
🟢 GREEN Zone (Safe Buy):
Condition: A Bullish Trendline Breakout has occurred AND the price is holding ABOVE the EMA 30 (Yellow Line).
Meaning: Momentum is bullish, and you are in a safe zone to look for Long entries.
🔴 RED Zone (Safe Sell):
Condition: A Bearish Trendline Breakout has occurred AND the price is holding BELOW the EMA 30 (Yellow Line).
Meaning: Momentum is bearish, and you are in a safe zone to look for Short entries.
⚪ GRAY Zone (No Trade / Wait):
Condition: A breakout occurred, but the price is on the "wrong side" of the EMA 30.
Meaning: Indecision. The market structure is conflicting with the immediate momentum. It is recommended to stay out until the color changes.
🛠️ Key Features
** automated Trendlines:** Automatically draws Support and Resistance dynamic trendlines based on pivot points (LuxAlgo engine).
Dual EMA Filter:
EMA 30 (Yellow): Acts as the immediate "Safe Zone" filter.
EMA 200 (White): Displays the macro trend. (Pro Tip: Only take Green signals if price is above the White line).
CS-BUY / CS-SELL Labels: Clear text markers appear exactly when a valid breakout occurs.
Customizable: Adjustable sensitivity (Length), EMA periods, and Slope calculation methods (ATR, Stdev, Linreg).
📉 How to Trade with CS Trendline Pro
For Scalping (5m / 15m):
Identify the Main Trend: Look at the White EMA (200).
If Price > EMA 200 → Focus on BUY signals.
If Price < EMA 200 → Focus on SELL signals.
Wait for the Signal:
Wait for the candle to turn Teal (Green) or Red.
Ensure the candle closes with the new color.
Risk Management:
Place Stop Loss below the recent swing low (for buys) or above the swing high (for sells).
Target a 1.5 Risk/Reward ratio or trail your stop using the EMA 30.
⚠️ Important Note on Backpainting
This indicator uses pivot points to draw trendlines. By nature, a pivot point can only be confirmed after a few bars have passed (Lag).
Backpaint Setting (Default ON): Keeps your historical chart clean by connecting the exact pivot points in the past.
Real-Time Behavior: In live trading, the trendline and signal will appear once the pivot is confirmed (based on your 'Length' setting). This is normal behavior for any trendline script.
Settings Recommended:
5-Minute Chart: Length 10 or 14.
15-Minute Chart: Length 14.

Trend Pivot Retracements▶ OVERVIEW
Trend Pivot Retracements identifies market trend direction using a Donchian-style channel and dynamically highlights retracement zones during trending conditions. It calculates the percentage pullbacks from recent highs and lows, plots labeled zones with varying intensity, and visually connects key retracement pivots. The indicator also emphasizes price proximity to trend boundaries by dynamically adjusting the thickness of plotted trend bands.
▶ TREND DETECTION & BAND STRUCTURE
The indicator determines the current trend by checking for new 50-bar extremes:
Uptrend: If a new highest high is made, the trend is considered bullish.
Downtrend: If a new lowest low is made, the trend is considered bearish.
Uptrend Band: Plots the 50-bar lowest low as a trailing support level.
Downtrend Band: Plots the 50-bar highest high as a trailing resistance level.
Thickness Variation: The thickness of the band increases the further price moves from it, indicating overextension.
▶ RETRACEMENT LABELING SYSTEM
During a trend, the indicator monitors pivot points in the opposite direction to measure retracements:
Bullish Retracement:
Triggered when a pivot low forms during an uptrend.
Measures % pullback from the most recent swing high (searched up to 20 bars back).
Plots a bold horizontal line at the low and a dashed diagonal from the previous swing high.
Adds a “-%” label above the low; intensity is based on recent 50 pullbacks.
Bearish Retracement:
Triggered when a pivot high forms during a downtrend.
Measures % pullback from the previous swing low (up to 20 bars back).
Plots a bold horizontal line at the high and a dashed diagonal from the prior swing low.
Adds a “%” label below the high with gradient color based on the past 50 extremes.
▶ PIVOT CONNECTION LINES
Each retracement includes a visual connector:
A diagonal dashed line linking the swing extreme (20 bars back) to the retracement point.
This line visually traces the path of price retreat within the trend.
Helps traders understand where the retracement originated and how steep it was.
▶ TREND SWITCH SIGNALS
When trend direction changes:
A diamond marker is plotted on the new pivot confirming the trend shift.
Green diamonds signal new bullish trends at fresh lows.
Magenta diamonds signal new bearish trends at fresh highs.
▶ COLOR INTENSITY & CONTEXTUAL AWARENESS
To help interpret the magnitude of retracements:
The % labels are color-coded using a gradient scale that references the max of the last 50 pullbacks.
Stronger pullbacks result in deeper color intensity, signaling more significant corrections.
Trend bands also use standard deviation normalization to adjust line thickness based on how far price has moved from the band.
This creates a visual cue for potential exhaustion or volatility extremes.
▶ USAGE
Trend Pivot Retracements is a powerful tool for traders who want to:
Identify trend direction and contextual pullbacks within those trends.
Spot key retracement points that may serve as entry opportunities or reversal signals.
Use visual retracement angles to understand market pressure and trend maturity.
Read dynamic band thickness as an alert for price stretch, potential mean reversion, or breakout setups.
▶ CONCLUSION
Trend Pivot Retracements gives traders a clean, visually expressive way to monitor trending markets, while capturing and labeling meaningful retracements. With adaptive color intensity, diagonal connectors, and smart trend switching, it enhances situational awareness and provides immediate clarity on trend health and pullback strength.
Volume Delta Oscillator with Divergence█ OVERVIEW
The Volume Delta Oscillator with Divergence is a technical indicator designed for the TradingView platform, helping traders identify potential trend reversal points and market momentum shifts through volume delta analysis and divergence detection. The indicator combines a smoothed volume delta oscillator with moving average-based signals, overbought/oversold levels, and divergence visualization, enhanced by configurable gradients and alerts for quick decision-making.
█ CONCEPT
The core idea of the indicator is to measure net buying or selling pressure through volume delta, smooth it for greater clarity, and detect divergences between price action and the oscillator. The indicator does not use external data, making it a compromise but practical tool for analyzing market dynamics based on available price and volume data. It provides insights into market dynamics, overbought/oversold conditions, and potential reversal points, with an attractive visual presentation.
█ WHY USE IT?
- Divergence detection: Identifies bullish and bearish divergences between price and the oscillator, signaling potential reversals.
- Volume delta analysis: Measures cumulative volume delta to assess buying/selling pressure, expressed as a percentage for cross-market comparability.
- Signal generation: Creates buy/sell signals based on overbought/oversold level crossovers, zero line crossovers, and moving average zero line crossovers.
- Visual clarity: Uses gradients, fills, and dynamic colors for intuitive chart analysis.
- Flexibility: Numerous settings allow adaptation to various markets (e.g., forex, crypto, stocks) and trading strategies.
█ HOW IT WORKS?
- Volume delta calculation: Computes net buying/selling pressure per candle as volume * (close - open) / (high - low), aggregated over a specified period (Cumulative Delta Length).
- Smoothing: Applies an EMA (Smoothing Length) to the cumulative delta percentage, creating a smoother oscillator (Delta Oscillator).
- Moving Average: Calculates an SMA (Moving Average Length) of the smoothed delta for trend confirmation (Moving Average (SMA)).
- Divergence detection: Identifies bullish and bearish divergences by comparing price and oscillator pivot highs/lows within a specified range (Pivot Length).
- Normalization: Delta is expressed as a percentage of total volume, ensuring consistency across instruments and timeframes.
- Signals: Generates signals for:
Crossing the oversold level upward (buy) or overbought level downward (sell).
Crossing the zero line by the oscillator or moving average (buy/sell).
Bullish/bearish divergences, marked with labels.
- Visualization: Draws the oscillator and moving average with dynamic colors, gradient fills, and transparent bands and labels, with configurable overbought/oversold levels.
- Alerts: Built-in alerts for divergence detection, overbought/oversold crossovers, and zero line crossovers (both oscillator and moving average).
█ SETTINGS AND CUSTOMIZATION
- Cumulative Delta Length: Period for aggregating volume delta (default: 14).
- Smoothing Length (EMA): EMA length for smoothing the delta oscillator (default: 2). Higher values smooth the signal but reduce the number of generated signals.
- Moving Average Length (SMA): SMA length for the moving average line (default: 40). Higher values allow SMA to be analyzed as a trend indicator, but require adjusting overbought/oversold levels for MA, as longer MA oscillates less.
- Pivot Length (Left/Right): Number of candles for detecting pivot highs/lows in divergence calculations (default: 2). Higher values can reduce noise but introduce a delay equal to the set value.
- Overbought/Oversold Levels: Thresholds for the oscillator (default: 18/-18) and for the moving average (default: 10/-10). For the moving average, no arrows appear; instead, the band changes color from gray to green (oversold) or red (overbought), which can strengthen entry signals for delta.
- Signal Type: Select signals to display: "Overbought/Oversold", "Zero Line", "MA Zero Line", "All", or "None" (default: Overbought/Oversold).
- Colors and gradients: Customize colors for bullish/bearish oscillator, moving average, zero line, overbought/oversold levels, and divergence labels.
- Transparency: Adjust gradient fill transparency (default: 70) and band/label transparency (default: 40) for consistent appearance.
- Visualizations: Enable/disable the moving average, gradients for zero/overbought/oversold levels, and gradient fills.
█ USAGE EXAMPLES
- Momentum analysis: Observe the delta oscillator above 0 for bullish momentum or below 0 for bearish momentum. The moving average (SMA), being smoothed, reacts more slowly and can confirm trend direction as a noise filter.
- Reversal signals: Look for buy triangles when the oscillator crosses the oversold level upward, especially when the moving average is below the MA oversold threshold. Similarly, look for sell triangles when crossing the overbought level downward, with the moving average above the MA overbought threshold. Divergence labels (bullish/bearish) indicate potential reversals.
- Divergence trading: Use bullish divergence labels (green) for potential buy opportunities and bearish labels (red) for sell opportunities, especially when confirmed by price action or other indicators.
- Customization: Adjust the cumulative delta length, smoothing, and moving average length to specific instruments and timeframes to minimize false signals.
█ NOTES FOR USERS
- Combine the indicator with other tools, such as Fibonacci levels, RSI, or pivot points, to increase accuracy.
- Test different settings for cumulative delta length, smoothing, and moving average length on your chosen instrument and timeframe to find optimal values.
Price Action [BreakOut] InternalKey Features and Functionality
Support & Resistance (S/R): The script automatically identifies and draws support and resistance lines based on a user-defined "swing period." These lines are drawn from recent pivot points, and users can customize their appearance, including color, line style (solid, dashed, dotted), and extension (left, right, or both). The indicator can also display the exact price of each S/R level.
Trendlines: It draws trendlines connecting pivot highs and pivot lows. This feature helps visualize the current trend direction. Users can choose to show only the newest trendlines, customize their length and style, and select the source for the pivot points (e.g., candle close or high/low shadow).
Price Action Pivots: This is a core component that identifies and labels different types of pivots based on price action: Higher Highs (HH), Lower Highs (LH), Higher Lows (HL), and Lower Lows (LL). These pivots are crucial for understanding market structure and identifying potential trend changes. The script marks these pivots with shapes and can display their price values.
Fractal Breakouts: The script identifies and signals "fractal breakouts" and "breakdowns" when the price closes above a recent high pivot or below a recent low pivot, respectively. These signals are visually represented with up (⬆) and down (⬇) arrow symbols on the chart.
Customization and Alerts: The indicator is highly customizable. You can toggle on/off various features (S/R, trendlines, pivots, etc.), adjust colors, line styles, and text sizes. It also includes an extensive list of alert conditions, allowing traders to receive notifications for:
Price Crossovers: When the close price crosses over or under a support or resistance level.
Trendline Breaks: When the price breaks above an upper trendline or below a lower trendline.
Fractal Breaks: When a fractal breakout or breakdown occurs.

• Dynamic support and resistance from recent pivot points
• Key level proximity detection using ATR-based buffers
3. Volume Flow Decoding
Institutional activity detection through:
• Volume surge identification when volume exceeds 2x average
• Buy versus sell pressure analysis using price-volume correlation
• Flow strength measurement through directional volume consistency
• Divergence detection between volume and price movements
• Institutional threshold alerts when unusual volume patterns emerge
4. Multi-Period Momentum Synthesis
Weighted momentum calculation across four timeframes:
• 1-period momentum weighted at 40%
• 3-period momentum weighted at 30%
• 5-period momentum weighted at 20%
• 8-period momentum weighted at 10%
Result smoothed with 6-period EMA for noise reduction.

Trend Breakout [Uncle Sam Trading]Trend Breakout Indicator
Overview
The Trend Breakout Indicator is a powerful, non-repainting tool designed to help traders identify high-probability breakout and trend reversal setups on any market and timeframe. By leveraging pivot points, this indicator draws dynamic support and resistance channels, highlights counter-trend breakouts, and provides visual cues for market direction. It’s ideal for traders looking to simplify their analysis while targeting key price levels for entries and exits.
Key Features
Pivot-Based Channels: Draws a red upper channel (resistance) and a green lower channel (support) by connecting recent pivot highs and lows.
Counter-Trend Breakout Signals:
Blue “CT Breakup” signal (▲) when the price breaks above the upper channel during a downtrend, indicating a potential reversal or pullback.
Orange “CT Breakdown” signal (▼) when the price breaks below the lower channel during an uptrend, signaling a potential downmove.
Trend Visualization: Background color shifts to green for uptrends and red for downtrends, making it easy to gauge market direction.
Customizable Settings: Adjust pivot detection sensitivity with “Pivot Left Bars” (default: 5) and “Pivot Right Bars” (default: 1), and control channel extension with “Channel Extension Bars” (default: 50).
Optional Trend Signals: Enable “Show Trend Change Signals” to display trend shifts with green (uptrend) or red (downtrend) arrows.
Alert Conditions: Set alerts for counter-trend breakouts and trend changes directly on TradingView.
Example Performance (BTCUSDT, 1-Hour Chart)
On the BTCUSDT 1-hour chart:
A “CT Breakdown” signal appeared on April 6 at 8:00 AM at $82,700, followed by a drop to $74,400 within hours—a 10% move.
A “CT Breakup” signal occurred on April 9 at 1:00 AM at $76,600, leading to a rally to $86,600 in a few hours—a 9% gain.
These examples highlight the indicator’s ability to spot significant price movements, though results depend on market conditions, your trading style, and risk management.
Settings
Pivot Left Bars (default: 5): Number of bars to the left for pivot detection.
Pivot Right Bars (default: 1): Number of bars to the right for pivot confirmation (ensures non-repainting signals).
Channel Extension Bars (default: 50): How far the channels extend to the right.
Show Pivot Points (default: true): Displays small triangles at pivot highs (maroon) and lows (navy).
Show Counter-Trend Breakout Signals (default: true): Shows CT Breakup and CT Breakdown signals.
Show Trend Change Signals (default: false): Displays trend shift arrows when enabled.
How to Use
Add the indicator to your chart via TradingView’s indicator library.
Adjust the settings to match your trading style and timeframe.
Watch for “CT Breakup” and “CT Breakdown” signals to identify potential trade setups.
Use the background color (green/red) to confirm the current trend.
Set alerts for breakouts or trend changes to stay updated on key signals.
Always combine with proper risk management and your own analysis—past performance is not a guarantee of future results.
Notes
The indicator is non-repainting, meaning signals are confirmed and won’t disappear after they form.
Works on any market (crypto, forex, stocks) and timeframe, such as the BTCUSDT 1-hour chart shown.
Performance varies based on market volatility and your trading strategy.

Pivot Length Percentiles Oscillator# Pivot Length Percentiles Oscillator: Technical Mechanics Explained
## Introduction
The Pivot Length Percentiles Oscillator is a statistical approach to identifying potential market reversals by analyzing the distribution of price movements relative to pivot points. This publication explains the technical mechanics behind the indicator.
## Core Mechanics
### 1. Pivot Point Detection
The indicator begins by identifying significant pivot highs and lows using a user-defined lookback period:
- `lft`: Number of bars to the left of potential pivot point
- `rht`: Number of bars to the right of potential pivot point
These parameters determine how "significant" a pivot needs to be to qualify for analysis.
### 2. Distance Measurement & Historical Database
For each new pivot point identified, the indicator:
- Calculates the absolute price distance from the previous pivot of the same type
- Records the number of candles between consecutive pivots
- Stores these measurements in dynamic arrays that build a historical database
### 3. Statistical Distribution Analysis
Rather than using fixed values, the oscillator analyzes the complete distribution of historical pivot distances and calculates key percentile values:
- `lw` (Low Percentile): Lower boundary for statistical significance
- `md` (Mid Percentile): Median statistical boundary
- `hi` (High Percentile): Upper boundary for statistical extremes
### 4. Oscillator Construction
Two primary oscillator lines are calculated:
- Green line (`osc1`): Measures current price's fall below recent highs with `low - ta.highest(high, lft)`
- Red line (`osc2`): Measures current price's rise above recent lows with `high - ta.lowest(low, lft)`
### 5. Threshold Generation
The percentile values from the historical distribution create dynamic threshold lines:
- For downside movements: Scaled versions of the low percentile (`lw_distance_low`) and high percentile (`hi_distance_low`)
- For upside movements: Scaled versions of the low percentile (`lw_distance_high`) and high percentile (`hi_distance_high`)
### 6. Signal Logic
Entry signals are generated when:
- **Bullish Signal**: The downside oscillator crosses below a statistical threshold while price continues showing downward momentum (close < previous close AND close < previous open)
- **Bearish Signal**: The upside oscillator crosses above a statistical threshold while price continues showing upward momentum (close > previous close AND close > previous open)
### 7. Visualization Options
Users can toggle between:
- Standard view: Shows the oscillator and threshold lines
- Percentile view: Displays the current movement's percentile rank within the historical distribution
## Implementation Notes
- The indicator scales threshold values by 0.9 to create a slight buffer that reduces false signals
- The movement's continuation is confirmed by checking both close-to-close and close-to-open relationships
- Arrays dynamically update throughout the chart's history, making the indicator increasingly accurate as more data is processed
## Mathematical Framework
The core statistical function calculates percentiles using linear interpolation between values when needed:
```
calculate_percentile(array, percentile) =
sortedValue +
fraction * (sortedValue - sortedValue )
```
where `index = (array.size - 1) * percentile / 100`
This mathematical approach ensures the thresholds adapt dynamically to changing market conditions rather than relying on fixed values.
Pivot Point Calculator PPC V2 by [KhedrFx]📈 Trade Smarter with the Pivot Point Calculator (PPC) by KhedrFx
Want to spot key price levels and make better trading decisions? The Pivot Point Calculator (PPC) by KhedrFx is your go-to TradingView tool for identifying potential support and resistance zones. Whether you’re a Scalper trader, day trader, swing trader, or long-term investor, this script helps you plan precise entries and exits with confidence.
🔹 How to Use Pivot Points in Trading
📊 Step 1: Identify Key Levels
The PPC automatically plots:
Pivot Point (P): The main level where sentiment shifts between bullish and bearish.
Support Levels (S1, S2, S3): Areas where price may bounce higher.
Resistance Levels (R1, R2, R3): Areas where price may face selling pressure.
These levels act as dynamic price zones, helping you anticipate potential market movements.
🔥 Step 2: Choose Your Trading Strategy
1️⃣ Breakout Trading
Buy when the price breaks above the pivot point (P) with strong momentum.
Sell when the price drops below the pivot point (P) with strong momentum.
Use R1, R2, or R3 as profit targets in an uptrend and S1, S2, or S3 in a downtrend.
2️⃣ Reversal (Bounce) Trading
Buy when the price pulls back to S1, S2, or S3 and shows bullish confirmation (e.g., candlestick patterns like a bullish engulfing or hammer).
Sell when the price rallies to R1, R2, or R3 and shows bearish confirmation (e.g., rejection wicks or a bearish engulfing pattern).
🎯 Step 3: Set Smart Stop-Loss & Take-Profit Levels
Stop-Loss: Place it slightly below support (for buy trades) or above resistance (for sell trades).
Take-Profit: Use the next pivot level as a target.
Extreme Zones: R3 and S3 often signal strong reversals or breakouts—watch them closely!
🚀 How to Get Started
1️⃣ Add the PPC script to your TradingView chart.
2️⃣ Choose a timeframe that fits your strategy (5m, 15m, 30m, 1H, 4H, Daily, or Weekly).
3️⃣ Use the pivot points and support/resistance levels to fine-tune your trade entries, exits, and risk management.
⚠️ Trade Responsibly
This tool helps you analyze the market, but it’s not a guarantee of profits. Always do your own research, manage risk, and trade with caution.

VMA [Extreme Advanced Custom Table for BTCUSD]This indicator implements a Variable Moving Average (VMA) with a 33-period length—selected in homage to the Tesla 369 concept—to dynamically adjust to market conditions. It not only calculates the adaptive VMA but also displays a custom table of key metrics directly on the chart. Here’s how to use it:
Apply to Your Chart:
Add the indicator to your chart (optimized for BTCUSD, though it can be used on other symbols) and choose your desired source (e.g., close).
Customize Your Visuals:
Trend & Price Lines: Toggle the trend colors, price line, and bar coloring based on the VMA’s direction.
Channels & Slope: Enable the volatility channel and slope line to visualize market volatility and the VMA’s momentum.
Pivot Points & Super VMA: Activate pivot high/low markers for potential reversal points and a Super VMA (SMA of VMA) for an extra smoothing layer.
Table Customization: Adjust the table’s position, colors, and font sizes as needed for your viewing preference.
Monitor Key Metrics:
The dynamic table displays essential information:
VMA Value & Trend: See the current VMA and whether the trend is Bullish, Bearish, or Neutral.
Volatility Index (vI) & Slope: Quickly assess market volatility and the VMA’s slope (both absolute and percentage).
Price-VMA Difference & Correlation: Evaluate how far the price is from the VMA and its correlation.
Higher Timeframe VMA: Compare the current VMA with its higher timeframe counterpart (set via the “Higher Timeframe” input).
Alerts for Key Conditions:
Built-in alert conditions notify you when:
The trend changes (bullish/bearish).
The VMA slope becomes extreme.
The price and VMA correlation falls below a defined threshold.
The VMA crosses its higher timeframe average.
How to Use the Script:
Add to Your Chart:
Open TradingView and apply the indicator to your BTCUSD (or any other) chart.
The indicator will overlay on your chart, plotting the VMA along with optional elements such as the price line, volatility channels, and higher timeframe VMA.
Customize Your Settings:
Inputs:
Choose your data source (e.g., close price).
Adjust the VMA length (default is 33) if desired.
Visual Options:
Toggle trend colors, bar coloring, and additional visuals (price line, volatility channels, slope line, pivot points, and Super VMA) to suit your trading style.
Table Customization:
Set the table position, colors, border width, and font size to ensure key metrics are easily visible.
Higher Timeframe:
You can change the higher timeframe input (default is Daily) to better fit your analysis routine.

Unlike a fixed-period moving average, the VMA adjusts its sensitivity in real time by integrating a volatility measure, making it more adaptive to market swings.
Multi-Layered Analysis:
With integrated volatility channels, pivot points, slope analysis, and a higher timeframe VMA, this tool gives you a fuller picture of market dynamics.
Immediate Data at a Glance:
The real-time table consolidates multiple key metrics into one view, saving time and reducing the need for additional indicators.
Custom Alerts:
Pre-built alert conditions allow for timely notifications, ensuring you don’t miss critical market changes.
The Curved Market Structure [BigBeluga]Curved Market Structure
The Curved Market Structure indicator offers an innovative twist on traditional market structure tools by using curved lines instead of horizontal ones, enabling faster breakout detection for traders.
🔵Key Features:
Curved Market Structure Levels: The indicator identifies high and low pivots and plots curved lines connecting these points, adapting to market dynamics and providing a more intuitive view of potential breakout zones.
Breakout Detection: Breakouts above or below the curved levels are marked with triangle symbols (▲ or ▼), making it easy to spot critical price movements.
Dynamic Target Levels: After a breakout, the indicator plots three target levels, which serve as potential price objectives. Each target is marked with a number and a star (e.g., 1★) upon being reached.
Customizable Line Length and Angle: Users can adjust the length and angle of the curved lines to fit their trading style and timeframe, making the tool versatile and adaptable.
Market Structure Trend Filtering: To maintain a clean chart, the indicator plots curved levels only from high pivots during uptrends and low pivots during downtrends.
🔵How It Works:
The indicator identifies high and low pivots using user-defined parameters (left and right bars).
Curved lines are drawn from these pivot points, showing the structure of the market and potential breakout zones.
When a breakout occurs, the indicator highlights the direction with triangle symbols and dynamically plots three price targets.
Upon reaching these targets, the level is marked with its respective number and a star, helping traders track price progression effectively.
The lines and targets are adjusted based on market conditions, ensuring real-time relevance and accuracy.
🔵Use Cases:
Spotting key breakout zones to identify entry and exit points more effectively.
Setting dynamic target levels for take-profit or stop-loss planning.
Filtering market noise and maintaining a cleaner chart while analyzing trends.
Enhancing traditional market structure analysis with an intuitive curved visualization.
This indicator is ideal for traders who want a modern, dynamic, and visually appealing way to track market structure and breakouts while maintaining chart clarity.

Pivot Low Length: Defines the number of bars used to calculate the support levels (pivot lows).
Volume SMA Length: The period of the simple moving average (SMA) for volume. Used to filter signals based on high volume.
Close SMA Length: The period of the simple moving average (SMA) for the close price. Used for confirmation of sell signals.
Pin Bar High Ratio: The ratio for defining the size of the upper wick in a bearish pin bar.
Pin Bar Low Ratio: The ratio for defining the size of the lower wick in a bearish pin bar.
How It Works:
Support and Resistance:
The indicator plots red lines for resistance (pivot highs) and green lines for support (pivot lows).
These levels are updated as new pivot points are detected based on the configured pivot lengths.
Sell Signal Conditions:
Candlestick Patterns: The indicator checks for two bearish patterns:
Bearish Pin Bar: A candle with a large upper wick and small lower wick where the close is below the open.
Bearish Engulfing: A candle where the current close is lower than the previous low, and the current open is higher than the previous high.
Volume Condition: The volume must be above the configured simple moving average (SMA) of the volume.
Confirmation: A sell signal is confirmed only when the price crosses below the configured SMA for the close price.
Sell Signals:
If all the conditions (candlestick pattern, volume, and confirmation) are met, the indicator will plot a red "Sell" label above the candle.
Additionally, a blue triangle will appear above the candle to indicate that the sell signal has been confirmed.
How to Use:
Adjust the Settings:
Open the settings of the indicator and adjust the parameters like pivot lengths, moving average periods, and candlestick pattern ratios based on your preferences.
Identify Key Levels:
Watch the red resistance and green support lines to identify key levels where price may reverse.
Look for Sell Signals:
When a red "Sell" label appears, it indicates a possible sell opportunity.
Ensure that a blue triangle (confirmation) also appears to validate the sell signal.
Manage Risk:
Use the support and resistance levels along with the sell signals to define your entry, stop-loss, and take-profit levels.
This indicator helps you identify potential bearish reversal points with configurable settings for added flexibility.
Fractal Levels [BigBeluga]The Fractal Levels - BigBeluga indicator is a specialized tool that detects significant market highs and lows, ranking them by their normalized volume. This indicator is designed to help traders identify crucial price levels that are likely to influence market behavior, enabling better decision-making in trading. By gathering normalized volume around each fractal point, it creates a comprehensive view of the strength and relevance of price reversal points, which can be visualized as numbers or zones on the chart.
🔵KEY FEATURES & USAGE
● High and Low Detection with Volume Ranking:
The indicator detects market highs and lows using a user-defined length setting. For each detected fractal point (high or low), it collects normalized volume from a set number of bars before and after the fractal point (the number is based on the length input). This collection allows the indicator to produce an average of the normalized volume, which is then displayed as a number above or below the corresponding fractal arrows, visually indicating the importance of the high or low.
● Plotting Levels from Fractals:
From these high and low points, the indicator plots key levels. In settings, traders can choose between a wide or tight zone type.
If a price level coincides with multiple pivot points, the indicator highlights this as a significant zone. These zones represent areas where price tends to react, making them critical for identifying potential support and resistance levels.
● Fractal Boxes with Delta Volume Data:
Fractal boxes are shown as gray boxes, representing areas where price pivots occurred, and they also contain delta volume information. Delta volume is calculated by summing the positive and negative volumes within the length range, producing the total delta inside each fractal box. This is particularly useful for analyzing volume shifts around key levels.
● Broken Levels Highlighting:
When a plotted level is broken (price closes above or below it), the level can be removed from the chart automatically. However, in the settings, you can enable a feature to highlight broken levels as gray areas, providing insight into past price behavior. This is helpful for tracking historical support and resistance zones.
> Important note: If no volume data provided indicator wont work
🔵 CUSTOMIZATION
Fractal Length and Filter Settings:
Adjust the Length parameter to control the number of bars used to detect pivot highs and lows. A longer length will result in fewer fractals being identified, focusing on more significant price moves. The Filter option allows you to set a volume threshold, filtering out minor fractals that do not meet the minimum volume requirements.
Levels Detection (Wide or Tight):
Choose between Wide and Tight zones for fractal levels detection. A tight zone focuses on smaller price areas around pivot points, while a wide zone expands the detection range, highlighting larger zones of influence around fractals.
Delta Volume Display for Fractals:
Toggle Delta Volume Fractals to show or hide the delta volume information inside fractal boxes. When enabled, the indicator calculates and displays the total delta volume within the range of bars surrounding each fractal point.
Broken Levels Visibility:
Enable Broken Levels to highlight levels that have been crossed by price. When disabled, broken fractal levels will be removed from the chart after price crosses them.
🔵CONCLUSION
The Fractal Levels indicator provides traders with an advanced way to analyze price highs and lows by combining fractal detection with volume dynamics. By identifying key market levels through normalized volume ranking, delta volume analysis, and level plotting, this tool is invaluable for spotting potential support and resistance zones. Whether you're focusing on short-term trading or longer-term price movements, Fractal Levels offers the precision and flexibility needed to optimize your strategy.
