How it Works
- Pivot Point Calculation: The script determines pivot highs and lows using either wicks or body prices over a specified term (Short, Medium, Long), corresponding to 5, 15, or 30 bars.
- Volume Analysis: Calculates average volume over twice the pivot length and identifies volume spikes exceeding the user-defined threshold, crucial for confirming support and resistance levels.
- Box Management: Maintains arrays of support and resistance boxes, limiting the number based on user settings (All, Recent Few, Recent Several).
Settings Explained
- Source: Choose between 'Wicks' or 'Bodies' to determine whether pivot points are calculated using candle wicks or body prices.
- Pivot Term: Select 'Short' (5 bars), 'Medium' (15 bars), or 'Long' (30 bars) to adjust the distance for pivot calculation. Longer terms take more bars to confirm support/resistance.
- Volume Threshold (multiplier): Set a multiplier of average volume to detect volume spikes, essential for validating support/resistance levels.
- Extend Until Price Hits: Enable this to extend support/resistance boxes until the price touches them, providing dynamic levels.
- Gray Out Boxes Once Hit: Enable this to gray out the boxes once the price interacts with them, indicating that they are no longer active.
- Max Boxes Displayed: Choose 'All', 'Recent Few' (up to 3 boxes each for bull and bear), or 'Recent Several' (up to 10 boxes each for bull and bear) to control the number of visible boxes.
- Invalidate Condition: Select 'Touch' to invalidate a box when the price touches it or 'Through' to invalidate when the price passes entirely through the box.
- Candle Colors: Option to color candles based on neutral, bullish, or bearish conditions for easier visual analysis.
Application
- Strategic Planning: Assists traders in pinpointing potential entry and exit points by marking significant support and resistance zones.
- Trend Confirmation: Validates trend strength and potential reversals with volume-based analysis of support and resistance levels.
