Pivot Move Ranges

█ OVERVIEW
“Pivot Move Ranges” is an indicator that displays only the historical price ranges of moves that match the direction of the current swing.
It measures the price range of each individual swing and draws them as horizontal Δ-boxes positioned at the level of the most recently detected pivot.
The indicator operates with a delay equal to the set pivot detection length – after each new Pivot High, only red Δ-boxes appear showing the sizes of previous downward moves; after each new Pivot Low, only green Δ-boxes appear showing the sizes of previous upward moves. When the swing direction changes, the displayed set of levels instantly switches to the opposite direction.

█ CONCEPTS
The indicator was created to instantly provide the trader with objective, real historical price ranges – perfectly reinforcing classic tools such as Fibonacci extension/retracement, daily/weekly pivots, moving averages, order blocks, or Volume Profile.
It detects classic Pivot High and Pivot Low points:
- New Pivot High → only previous downward moves are shown (red Δ-boxes)
- New Pivot Low → only previous upward moves are shown (green Δ-boxes)

This ensures that at any moment you see only the historical ranges that match the current market direction. Price moves very often repeat themselves – the indicator makes these recurring levels immediately visible and ready to serve as natural reinforcement for other technical analysis tools.

█ FEATURES
- Pivot High / Pivot Low detection with adjustable length (default 12)
- Δ-boxes – thin horizontal lines showing the exact size of previous moves that match the current swing
- Automatic switching of the Δ-box set whenever a new opposite pivot appears
- Memory of the last N moves (default 6, max. 50) – oldest are automatically removed
- Labels showing move size (Δ) and start date/time
- Full color customization (separate for up and down), border and text transparency
- Choice of date format (DD.MM.YYYY or MM/DD/YYYY)
- Small circles marking the exact pivot locations

█ HOW TO USE
Add the indicator to your TradingView chart → paste the code → Add to Chart.
Settings:
- Pivot Length – higher values = fewer but more significant pivots (detected with a delay equal to this length)
- Max Corrections to Keep – how many previous matching moves are displayed at once
- Upward / Downward Box Color – colors of the Δ-boxes
- Box Border Transparency (%) – 0 = solid lines, 50–70 = subtle
- Show Δ Text + Move Start Date – turn labels on/off

Interpretation:
At any given moment the chart shows only the historical ranges of moves in the current direction:
- after a Pivot High → red Δ-boxes = “how far the market previously fell”
- after a Pivot Low → green Δ-boxes = “how far the market previously rose”

█ APPLICATIONS
- Instant reinforcement of technical levels – historical moves matching the current swing direction often coincide with Fibonacci levels, daily/weekly pivots, moving averages, or order blocks
- Fast cluster detection – set a high Max Corrections value (30–50) to see where the largest number of similarly sized moves cluster, then reduce to 6–10 and focus only on the most recent levels

█ NOTES
- On very strong trends, Δ-boxes can be extremely long – this is normal and correct behavior
- Always use as a supporting layer alongside other technical analysis tools
