This innovative system changes everything, offering tools that have never before been available in the trading community. With groundbreaking features like
KillZones
High Timeframe RSI (HTF RSI) and
True Midline
this system is seeks to solve major problems that hurt traders every day.
KillZones give traders an edge by pinpointing critical price levels where momentum and liquidity shift.
The Custom High Timeframe RSI brings real-time higher timeframe trend confirmation directly to your chart, eliminating the need to wait for candles to close. A totally new way to calculate HTF RSI without waiting for higher time candles to close.
The True Midline adjusts dynamically, showing exactly when the market is in equilibrium or transitioning between bullish and bearish momentum.
Custom Heiken-Ashi Oscillator Candles:
It uses customized Heiken Ashi candle calculations that allow it present trends more accurately while the candles are limited to an oscillator as opposed to price values. Candle up or candle down doesnt always mean long or short. Ive included a setting called "Secret Sauce Colors" to alter the colors of the Heiken Ashi candles so they will be colored to the actual trend taking place instead of just bullish or bearish closing.
The Liquidity Ribbon:
This indicator contains a built in customized version of a Stochastic Oscillator called "The Liquidity Ribbon" which shows you when liquidity of either side is entering and existing the market. It uses calculations of market and volume pressure to give you a visual representation of who is trying to alter asset pricing. This is NOT the stochastic RSI but I've given you guys an visual approach of something that looks similar.
The ribbon has bullish and bearish sides that flip over eachother. As one grows, the other shrinks so yo u can see in real time the flow of money from either side and whos winning.
Bullish and Bearish Premium and Discount Zones
What Are They?
Bullish and Bearish Premium and Discount Zones are visualized on the indicator as distinct colored sections within the oscillator, providing a quick snapshot of market conditions:
Bearish Premium Zone: Indicates areas of overextension in bearish momentum, often associated with ranging markets.
Bearish Discount Zone: Highlights opportunities where bearish trends are gaining strength and momentum is trending.
Bullish Discount Zone: Marks areas in bullish conditions where the market is consolidating or ranging.
Bullish Premium Zone: Identifies zones where bullish momentum is strong and trends are more pronounced.
How to Use Them?
For long trades, consider the following:
Scalping Opportunities: When the market is trending higher and Heiken-Ashi candles are closing above the high-timeframe RSI, short-term long scalps can be executed in the Discount Bullish Zone, where consolidation occurs.
Trending Trades: Larger, more sustained long trades can be taken when price moves into the Premium Bullish Zone, signaling stronger upward momentum.
Breakout Trading: When price crosses into a trending zone and simultaneously breaks through previous price resistance or support, this confluence solidifies entries for breakout trades across previous highs or lows, providing a higher probability for successful trades.
This structured use of Premium and Discount Zones gives traders a clear edge, offering insights into both market range and trend strength.
True Midline
What Is It?
The True Midline represents the dynamic equilibrium between buyers and sellers, adapting to real-time market activity. Unlike fixed midlines in traditional oscillators, it adjusts based on where buyers and sellers enter and exit the market.
How Does It Work?
The midline accounts for four key activities: buyer entry, buyer exit, seller entry, and seller exit. This holistic approach highlights shifts in momentum and periods of reduced activity, such as when both buyers and sellers exit simultaneously, creating larger ranging zones.
How to Use It?
Consolidation Zones: Narrow midline ranges signal market indecision, often preceding breakouts.
Momentum Shifts: Crossing above or below the midline indicates transitions into bullish or bearish conditions.
Ranging Markets: Identifies reduced interest during simultaneous buyer and seller exits, helping avoid false signals.
The True Midline offers a clearer picture of market balance, helping traders navigate trends and consolidations with confidence.
Dynamic Trending Zones:
What Are They?
Dynamic Trending Zones represent areas of high volatility and breakout potential, reflecting shifts in market momentum and participation. These zones are self-adjusting and directly influence the midline's position.
There are two zones:
Bullish Trending Zone: Signals increased buyer momentum.
Bearish Trending Zone: Signals increased seller momentum.
How Are They Calculated?
The zones are derived using a combination of volume pressure and momentum changes, but these changes need to be sufficient to have moved price over time:
The indicator tracks sudden shifts in momentum relative to volume changes to identify critical thresholds for breakouts.
A "need-to-cross" point is established in each zone, acting as a breakout trigger.
If opposing or additional volume and momentum are insufficient, the zone remains unchanged until market conditions shift.
This ensures the zones dynamically adapt to real-time market activity while maintaining accuracy during periods of indecision or consolidation.
How to Use Them?
Bullish Breakouts: Crossing into the bullish zone and breaking a previous resistance signals strong buyer momentum. Check for contraction in the bearish zone to confirm dominance.
Bearish Breakouts: Similarly, crossing into the bearish zone while breaking a support level confirms seller strength.
Momentum Confirmation: Ensure current momentum is leading the high-timeframe RSI for more reliable trade setups.
Zone Analysis : Expansion of a zone signals increased participation (e.g., more buyers or sellers entering), while contraction indicates reduced activity or that buyers and or sellers are closing their positions.
These zones provide actionable insights into breakout potential and market momentum, helping traders make informed decisions in volatile conditions.
High Timeframe RSI (HTF RSI)
What Is It?
The High Timeframe RSI gives you real-time higher timeframe RSI values directly on your lower timeframe chart. This means you don’t have to wait for the higher timeframe candle to close before seeing the RSI updates—it’s always live.
Why Is It Needed?
Normally, to see the RSI on a higher timeframe, you have to wait for that timeframe to close. This can be slow and lead to missed opportunities. The HTF RSI solves this by showing you the higher timeframe RSI values as soon as each lower timeframe candle closes, giving you faster insights and no delays.
How It works?
Rather than just using the standard RSI, the HTF RSI compares the momentum on your current timeframe with what it would be on the higher timeframe. It takes into account how many candles on your current chart fit into each higher timeframe candle. This makes sure that the higher timeframe RSI is accurate and reflects the real momentum, even when switching between timeframes.
How to Use It?
Trend Confirmation:
When the HTF RSI is above the midline, it shows a bullish trend on the higher timeframe, and if your current momentum is also bullish, it strengthens your trade setup.
When the HTF RSI is below the midline, it shows a bearish trend, and if your current momentum is bearish, it supports short trade setups.
If bearish momentum is above the HTF RSI, it suggests a local downtrend within a larger bullish trend.
Major Benefits
Custom Timeframes: You can use any higher timeframe you choose, not just the typical ones.
Real-Time Updates: Get higher timeframe RSI values with each candle, without delays.
Better Trading Insights: Align your trades with both lower and higher timeframe trends to make more informed decisions.
With HTF RSI, you get a clear view of higher timeframe trends in real time, so you can act faster and smarter on your trades.
ORB with ATR Trailing SL [Bluechip Algos]This is a simple ORB (Opening Range Breakout) Indicator that not only signals breakout directions based on the opening session range but also includes trailing stop levels to manage ongoing trades. Instead of regular fixed Stop loss, we use ATR indicator (ATR based SL) to trail the stop loss that might help in maximizing the profitable trades. This helps especially during the trending days where market moves unidirectionally.
About the Indicator
Opening Range Identification: The indicator defines an initial session timeframe and captures the highest and lowest prices during this period.

Swing Data - Optimized SK60
v. 1.83
indicator adjust to time frame.
This Pine Script code generates a trading indicator that calculates and displays various data points on a stock, including Average Daily Range (ADR%), Market Cap, Current Volume, Free Cash Flow (FCF) Yield %, Float %, whether moving averages (MA) are inline, and the moving averages of certain indexes like the Russell 2000, Nasdaq 100, and S&P 500. Here’s a breakdown of the script and how to use it.
Key Concepts and Functionality
Indicator Definition: The script begins by defining the indicator with a title (Swing Data - Optimized ADR%...) and short title (Optimized Swing Data), which will appear on the chart. The overlay=true command ensures that the indicator is drawn on the main price chart rather than in a separate pane.
Sector and Ticker:
s = syminfo.tickerid: This stores the ticker ID of the stock being analyzed.
sector = syminfo.sector: This retrieves the sector to which the stock belongs. If the sector information is unavailable, it assigns the value "N/A".
Dynamic Inputs: Several input parameters allow you to customize the indicator:
adrp_len: Defines the length for ADR% calculation.
len: Defines the moving average length for volume.
tbl_size, bg_col, and txt_col: Control the table's appearance, including the size of the text, background color, and text color.
posTable: Allows positioning of the table on the chart. Options include top-left, top-right, bottom-left, and bottom-right.
show_empty_row: Adds an empty row above the displayed values if set to true.
Volume Unit Handling (f_vol_unit): This function converts volume into appropriate units, like thousands (K), millions (M), or billions (B), to make volume easier to read. It’s applied to both the current volume and the average daily volume.
Moving Averages for Indexes (f_ma_indexes): This function calculates the 10-day, 20-day, 50-day, and 200-day simple moving averages (SMAs) for an index (such as Russell 2000 or Nasdaq 100). It also checks whether the MAs are inline, meaning if shorter MAs are above longer MAs, which is usually a bullish sign. It returns the result as "YES" or "NO" and assigns a color (green for yes, red for no).
Volume and Price Data: The script fetches several important data points:
vol_display: Current volume in human-readable units.
avgDaVol: Average daily volume.
adrp: Average Daily Range (ADR%) over a specified length.
fcf_yield_percent: Free Cash Flow Yield percentage.
ADR Calculation: The ADR% is calculated using the formula 100 * (ta.sma(high / low, adrp_len) - 1) and is fetched for the daily timeframe.
FCF Yield Color Logic: The Free Cash Flow yield is classified into three categories:
Green: Undervalued if FCF yield is over 5%.
Yellow: Neutral between 2-5%.
Red: Overvalued if below 2%.
MA's Inline Check for the Stock: The script checks if the stock's 10-day, 20-day, 50-day, and 200-day moving averages are inline (i.e., in a bullish alignment where shorter MAs are higher than longer MAs).
Float % Calculation: The float percentage is calculated as the ratio of float shares outstanding (FSO) to total shares outstanding (TSO). The color is set based on its breakout potential:
Red: Below 20% (manipulation risk).
Green: 20-50% (ideal breakout range).
Yellow: Above 50%.
Price Change %: The script calculates the percentage change in price between the current and previous close.
Volume Color Logic: The color of the "Current Volume" is based on whether it indicates buying or selling pressure:
Green: Volume is higher than average, and the price increased more than ADR%.
Red: Volume is higher than average, and the price decreased more than ADR%.
Yellow: Default color if neither condition is met.
Market Cap: The market cap is calculated by multiplying the total shares outstanding (TSO) by the current close price, and it’s displayed in a human-readable unit (K, M, or B).
Display Table:
A table is created to display all the calculated data in an organized manner. It includes fields for Market Cap, Avg Volume, ADR%, Current Volume, FCF Yield %, Float %, MA's Inline status, and Sector. Additionally, it shows the inline status for the Russell 2000, Nasdaq 100, and S&P 500.
How to Use:
Customization: Users can customize the inputs, including the length of ADR% and volume moving averages, and adjust the table size, text color, and position.
Visualization: The indicator provides a comprehensive table on the chart showing key data points for technical analysis, including whether moving averages are inline for both the stock and major indexes.
This indicator is particularly useful for swing traders or technical analysts who want a clear overview of a stock’s volume, volatility (via ADR%), and the alignment of moving averages, combined with fundamental metrics like market cap and free cash flow yield.

🔍 How It Works
This script operates by identifying session-specific ranges based on highs and lows from the beginning of the selected session (Asia, America, Europe, or others). After a user-defined wait period (default: 120 bars), it calculates the highest and lowest points and creates upper and lower zones using the Average True Range (ATR) to adapt to market volatility. If the price breaks above or below these zones, it is identified as a breakout, and the script dynamically calculates up to three take-profit targets for both bullish and bearish scenarios using an ATR multiplier. The indicator also includes alerts for breakouts and take-profit hits, providing real-time trading signals.
Volatility Breaker Blocks [BigBeluga]The Volatility Breaker Blocks indicator identifies key market levels based on significant volatility at pivot highs and lows. It plots blocks that act as potential support and resistance zones, marked in green (support) and blue (resistance). Even after a breakout, these blocks leave behind shadow boxes that continue to impact price action. The sensitivity of block detection can be adjusted in the settings, allowing traders to customize the identification of volatility breakouts. The blocks print triangle labels (up or down) after breakouts, indicating potential areas of interest.
🔵 IDEA
The Volatility Breaker Blocks indicator is designed to highlight key areas in the market where volatility has created significant price action. These blocks, created at pivot highs and lows with increased volatility, act as potential support and resistance levels.
The idea is that even after price breaks through these blocks, the remaining shadow boxes continue to influence price movements. By focusing on volatility-driven pivot points, traders can better anticipate how price may react when it revisits these areas. The indicator also captures the natural tendency for price to retest broken resistance or support levels.
🔵 KEY FEATURES & USAGE
◉ High Volatility Breaker Blocks:
The indicator identifies areas of high volatility at pivot highs and lows, plotting blocks that represent these zones. Green blocks represent support zones (identified at pivot lows), while blue blocks represent resistance zones (identified at pivot highs).
Support:
Resistance:
◉ Shadow Blocks after Breakouts:
When price breaks through a block, the block doesn't disappear. Instead, it leaves behind a shadow box, which can still influence future price action. These shadow blocks act as secondary support or resistance levels.
If the price crosses these shadow blocks, the block stops extending, and the right edge of the box is fixed at the point where the price crosses it. This feature helps traders monitor important price levels even after the initial breakout has occurred.
◉ Triangle Labels for Breakouts:
After the price breaks through a volatility block, the indicator prints triangle labels (up or down) at the breakout points.
◉ Support and Resistance Retests:
One of the key concepts in this indicator is the retesting of broken blocks. After breaking a resistance block, price often returns to the shadow box, which then acts as support. Similarly, after breaking a support block, price tends to return to the shadow box, which becomes a resistance level. This concept of price retesting and bouncing off these levels is essential for understanding how the indicator can be used to identify potential entries and exits.
The natural tendency of price to retest broken resistance or support levels.
Additionaly indicator can display retest signals of broken support or resistance
◉ Customizable Sensitivity:
The sensitivity of volatility detection can be adjusted in the settings. A higher sensitivity captures fewer but more significant breakouts, while a lower sensitivity captures more frequent volatility breakouts. This flexibility allows traders to adapt the indicator to different trading styles and market conditions.
🔵 CUSTOMIZATION
Calculation Window: Defines the window of bars over which the breaker blocks are calculated. A larger window will capture longer-term levels, while a smaller window focuses on more recent volatility areas.
Volatility Sensitivity: Adjusts the threshold for volatility detection. Lower sensitivity captures smaller breakouts, while higher sensitivity focuses on larger, more significant moves.
Retest Signals: Display or hide retest signals of shadow boxes
Swing Points [CrossTrade]The "Swing Points" indicator is designed to help identify key swing points, trends, and potential support and resistance areas on a trading chart. This indicator overlays on the price chart and offers several features for enhanced market analysis.
Swing Point Identification: The indicator identifies swing highs and lows (pivot points) over a user-defined period. These points are crucial in understanding market reversals and momentum.
Swing Points Display: Users have the option to visually display these pivot points on the chart. Swing highs are marked with a red "H" above the bar, and swing lows with a green "L" below the bar, aiding in quick visual identification.
Center Line Calculation and Display: A dynamic center line is calculated using the pivot points, providing a baseline that adapts to market movements. The center line's appearance changes based on its position relative to the current price, making it a useful trend indicator.
Support and Resistance Levels: The indicator plots horizontal support and resistance lines based on the swing lows and highs, respectively. This feature helps traders identify potential areas of price consolidation or breakout.
Customization Options: Users can customize the period for swing point calculation and choose whether to display the pivot points, center line, and support/resistance levels.
Alert Features
Swing High Break Alert: An alert is triggered when a new swing high is detected, signaling a potential upward momentum shift.
Swing Low Break Alert: This alert activates when a new swing low is formed, possibly indicating a downward momentum shift.
Center Line Trend Color Change Alert: Alerts users when the center line changes its trend color, which could signify a change in overall market trend direction.
False Breakouts [TradingFinder] Fake Breakouts Failure🔵 Introduction
Technical indicators are essential tools for analysts and traders in financial markets, helping them predict price movements and make better trading decisions. One of the key concepts in technical analysis that should be carefully considered is the "False Breakout."
This phenomenon occurs when a price temporarily breaks through a significant support or resistance level but fails to hold and quickly returns to its previous range. Understanding this concept and applying it in trading can reduce risks and increase profitability.
🟣 What is a False Breakout?
A Fake Breakout, as the name suggests, refers to a breakout that appears to occur but fails to sustain, leading the price to quickly revert back to its previous range. This situation often happens when inexperienced or non-professional traders, under psychological pressure and eager to enter the market quickly, initiate trades.
This creates opportunities for professional traders to take advantage of these short-term fluctuations and execute successful trades.
🟣 The Importance of Recognizing False Breakouts
Recognizing False Breakouts is crucial for any trader aiming for success in financial markets. False Breakouts typically occur when the market approaches a critical support or resistance level.
In these situations, many traders are waiting to see if the price will break through this level. However, when the price quickly returns to its previous range, it indicates weakness in the movement and the inability to sustain the breakout.
🟣 How to identify False Breakouts?
To identify Fake Breakouts, it is important to carefully analyze price charts and look for signs of a quick price reversal after breaking a key level.
Here are some chart patterns that may help you identify a False Breakout :
1. Pin Bar Pattern : The Pin Bar is a candlestick pattern that indicates a price reversal. This pattern usually appears near support and resistance levels, showing that the price attempted to break through a key level but failed and reversed.
2. Fakey Pattern : This pattern, which consists of several candlesticks, indicates a False Breakout and a quick price return to the previous range. It usually appears near key levels and can signal a trend reversal.
3. Using Multiple Timeframes : One way to identify False Breakouts is by using charts of different timeframes. Sometimes, a breakout on a one-hour chart may be a False Breakout on a daily chart. Analyzing charts across multiple timeframes can help you accurately identify this phenomenon.
🔵 How to Use
Once you identify a False Breakout, you can use it as a trading signal. For this, it is best to look for trading opportunities in the opposite direction of the False Breakout. In other words, if a False Breakout occurs at a resistance level, you might consider selling opportunities, and if it happens at a support level, you might look for buying opportunities.
Here are some key points for trading based on False Breakouts :
1. Patience and Discipline : Patience and discipline are crucial when trading with False Breakouts. Wait for the False Breakout to clearly form before entering a trade.
2. Use Stop Loss : Setting an appropriate stop loss is vital when trading based on False Breakouts. Typically, the stop loss can be placed near the level where the False Breakout occurred.
3. Seek Confirmations : Before entering a trade, look for additional confirmations. These can include other analyses or technical indicators that show the price is likely to return to its previous level.
🔵 Settings
🟣 Logical settings

🔵Conclusion
False Breakouts, as a key concept in technical analysis, are powerful tools for identifying sudden price changes and using them in trading. Understanding this phenomenon and applying it can help traders perform better in financial markets and avoid potential losses.
To benefit from False Breakouts, traders need to carefully analyze charts and use the appropriate analytical tools. By leveraging this strategy, traders can achieve lower-risk and higher-reward trades.

🟣 ACD Methodology
The ACD strategy is versatile, applicable to various markets such as stocks, commodities, and forex, providing clear buy and sell signals to set price targets and stop losses.
This strategy operates on the premise that the opening range of trades holds statistical significance daily, suggesting that initial market movements impact the market's behavior throughout the day.
Known as a breakout strategy, the ACD method thrives in volatile or strongly trending markets like crude oil and stocks.
Some key rules for employing the ACD strategy include :
Utilize points A and C as critical reference points, continually monitoring these during trades as they act as entry and exit markers.
Analyze daily and multi-day pivot ranges to understand market trends. Prices above the pivots indicate an upward trend, while prices below signal a downward trend.
In forex trading, the ACD strategy can be implemented using the ACD indicator, a technical tool that gauges the market's supply and demand balance. By evaluating trading volume and price, this indicator assists traders in identifying trend strength and optimal entry and exit points.
To effectively use the ACD indicator, consider the following :
Identifying robust trends: The ACD indicator can help pinpoint strong, consistent market trends.
Determining entry and exit points: ACD generates buy and sell signals to optimize trade timing.
Bullish Setup :
When the "A up" line is breached, it’s wise to wait briefly to confirm it’s not a "Fake Breakout" and that the price stabilizes above this line.
Upon entering the trade, the most effective stop loss is positioned below the "A down" line. It's advisable to backtest this to ensure the best outcomes. The recommended reward-to-risk ratio for this strategy is 1, which should also be verified through backtesting.
Bearish Setup :
When the "A down" line is breached, it’s prudent to wait briefly to ensure it’s not a "Fake Breakout" and that the price stabilizes below this line.
Upon entering the trade, the most effective stop loss is positioned above the "A up" line. Backtesting is recommended to confirm the best results. The recommended reward-to-risk ratio for this strategy is 1, which should also be validated through backtesting.
Advantages of Combining Kill Zone and ACD Method in Market Analysis :
Precise Trade Timing : Integrating the Kill Zone strategy with the ACD Method enhances precision in trade entries and exits. The ACD Method identifies key points for trading, while the Kill Zone focuses on high-activity periods, together ensuring optimal timing for trades.
Better Trend Identification : The ACD Method’s pivot ranges help spot market trends, and when combined with the Kill Zone’s emphasis on periods of significant price movement, traders can more effectively identify and follow strong market trends.

Head and Shoulders PatternHello Traders!
The Head and Shoulders Pattern indicator utilizes a unique swing-based pattern recognition to pinpoint head and shoulders patterns in real-time with unparalleled precision.
The head and shoulders chart pattern is a technical analysis pattern used to identify potential trend reversals in financial markets. It consists of three swing highs (peaks), with the middle peak being the highest and the two outside swing highs being slightly lower. The middle peak is referred to as the "head" and the two outside peaks are referred to as the "shoulders."
The pattern typically forms after an uptrend and is in most cases a bearish signal. The neckline is a support level that connects the lows of the two shoulders. Once the price breaks below the neckline, the pattern is confirmed, and a new down trend starts. Conversely, an "inverse head and shoulders" pattern forms after a downtrend and is a bullish signal.

How to Trade with the TRN Head and Shoulders Indicator
Identify the Pattern
Add the Head and Shoulders Pattern Indicator to your chart and look for the pattern on the asset and timeframe of your choice. The pattern is detected in real-time. If the pattern develops further in the next bars, then the indicator updates the pattern accordingly until a breakout is confirmed or the pattern becomes invalid.
You can also use the built-in alerts to easily get notified when a pattern occurs. In the indicator settings in the "Alerts" section you can choose whether you want to get notified when a pattern is
1. in the making (Pattern active),
2. confirms an up breakout (B/O Up Confirmed)
3. confirms a down breakout (B/O Down Confirmed)
4. (Unconfirmed) in case a pattern breakout occurs, even if the pattern is not yet confirmed
This allows you to stay informed about potential breakout opportunities that are still awaiting confirmation.
Check Pattern Statistics
The pattern statistics make it easy for you to see how successful a pattern is on the asset and timeframe you are watching. You should always check the statistics before entering a trade. The chart displays the statistics in the upper right corner. These statistics are categorized into two sections: "long" for inverse head and shoulders patterns and "short" for head and shoulders patterns.
In the initial columns, labeled as "short" and "long", the identified breakouts are further divided based on whether the risk-reward ratio (R) is below a specified value (< x) or equal to/greater than the specified value (>= x). The following columns represent the count of the events:
1. Occ. (Occurrence) categorized according to the values of R from the first column
2. TP1, TP2, TP3 (Take Profit) - targets 1, 2 and 3
3. SL (Stop Loss)
4. T/O (Time Out) - neither stop loss or targets where hit in a certain amount of time
Breakout – Entry, Stop Loss and Targets
The indicator automatically displays the entry price line (EP) in grey at the point where the price breaks through the neckline, indicating a breakout. Once a breakout has been confirmed, place a buy order near the EP level for a long position, or a sell order for a short position. Set your stop-loss at the price level of the red stop-loss line (SL) and set your take-profits at the price level of the green take-profit-lines (TP1, TP2, TP3).
Risk Management
The Head and Shoulders Pattern Indicator comes with a built-in risk management feature. Just go to the settings and scroll down to the section "Risk Management". Here you can enter your Account Size and the percentage you want to Risk when you enter a position after a pattern breakout.
In the "Trade Management" section, you have the option to define the minimum accepted risk-reward ratio for confirmed rectangles. This means that breakouts of patterns failing to meet the minimum risk-reward ratio will not be considered as confirmed signals. If a breakout gets confirmed, the indicator automatically calculates the position size (Quantity). You can read the quantity from the gray entry point line (EP), which is located to the right of the risk-reward ratio (R). Note that your risk-reward ratio (R) is calculated based on TP1.
Customization and Settings
The indicator can scan for smaller and larger patterns at the same time. Adjust the Head and Shoulders Sizes in the indicator settings to align them with your preferences. A larger size results in larger patterns. Depending on the asset class, the market or the market phase, different sizes should be used for the Head and Shoulders pattern detection.
To detect more patterns, increase the tolerance level, even though it may result in lower accuracy. However, be mindful that a higher tolerance level may result in more patterns hitting their stop-loss. Look for a tolerance level that leads to favorable statistics and focus on trading patterns with a proven performance history.
Finally, you have the flexibility to customize various visual elements, such as the color of the pattern and whether to display values like price, target, or risk-reward ratio on your chart. You can also choose where these values appear.
Computation Details
The real-time detection of the Head and Shoulders Pattern Indicator utilizes a unique swing-based pattern recognition. The difference to other swing-based computations is that the pivot points are identified without a look-ahead value. The result is a faster and better real-time detection. Furthermore, the detection of the ratios between the single swings is based on a dynamic volatility measurement similar to the ATR. The tolerance level unites several internal parameters into one and results in a user-friendly setting.

Breakout Conditions
Identifying breakout conditions is paramount for successfully recognizing and capitalizing on chart patterns. Trading tools equipped with diverse breakout conditions offer traders a comprehensive approach to deciphering market trends and making informed decisions.
This section delves into the set of breakout conditions built within TRN Harmonics, exploring their functionalities, applications, and the benefits they provide in the realm of chart pattern recognition.
TRN Bars Signal + Trend
The Harmonics Pattern Suite includes also the TRN Bars algorithm. It is designed to spot bullish and bearish trends and reversals. The trend analysis is based on a new algorithm that weights several different inputs:
1. classical and advanced bar patterns and their statistical frequency
2. probability distributions of price expansions after certain bar patterns
3. bar information such as wick length in %, overlapping of the previous bar in % and many more
4. historical trend and consolidation analysis
If you use this breakout condition, the breakout is determined by the next signal (reversal, continuation, breakout) or trend change of the TRN bars after one of the harmonic patterns has been completed. These Breakout conditions give you the accurate trend recognition of the TRN Bars to find the perfect entry.
TRN Bars Signal
If a harmonic pattern gets completed and you use this breakout condition, the breakout will be determined by the next confirmed signal (reversal, continuation, breakout) of the TRN Bars. These Breakout Condition delivers signals with reenforced reliability, but they occur not as often as other breakout conditions.
RSI Crossing
With this breakout condition, a breakout for a long position gets determined, when the RSI line crosses above the RSI moving average (MA) after one of the harmonic patterns has been completed. A bearish breakout after a completed harmonic pattern gets determined, when the RSI line crosses below the RSI MA.
You can choose your preferred RSI and MA length in the indicator settings under the “Trade Management” section.
MACD Crossing
If a harmonic pattern gets completed and you use this breakout condition, the breakout gets determined, when the MACD line crosses above the signal line (bullish MACD crossover) for a bullish breakout. Conversely, when the MACD line crosses below the signal line (bearish MACD crossover), a bearish breakout gets determined after a harmonic pattern was completed.
You can choose your preferred MACD length in the indicator settings under the “Trade Management” section.
Swing Flip
Use this breakout condition, if you want a breakout to get determined when the next swing after point D gets detected by the build in swing detection algorithm of TRN Harmonics.
Close Below/Above Last 2 Lows/Highs
With this breakout condition, a breakout for a short position gets determined, if a close below the lows of the last 2 bars gets detected. For a long position, the breakout gets determined if a close above the highs of the last 2 bars gets detected.
Close Below/Above Last 3 Lows/Highs
In this scenario, a short position breakout is confirmed if the price closes below the lows of the previous 3 bars. Conversely, a long position breakout is confirmed if the price closes above the highs of the last 3 bars.
How To Setup Breakout Conditions
Go to indicator settings and choose one of our built-in breakout conditions under the section "Trade Management" of the menu item "Inputs", like for example TRN Bars Signal + Trend. A selection of 7 distinct breakout conditions is at your disposal.
If you use the default settings of the Harmonic Patterns Suite, TRN Bars Signal + Trend will be the breakout condition for the detected harmonic patterns.
Computation Details
The real-time detection of the harmonic patterns utilizes a unique swing-based pattern recognition. The difference to other swing-based computations is that the pivot points are identified without a look-ahead value. The result is a faster and better real-time detection. Furthermore, the detection of the ratios between the single swings is based on a dynamic volatility measurement similar to the ATR.

Bull Bear Trend IndicatorIntroduction: Origin of the Swing Point Indicator
In the quest for a reliable indicator that accurately predicts trend directions and identifies valid highs and lows, the genesis of the Swing Point Indicator emerged. Faced with the challenge of finding a tool that provided comprehensive market analysis and actionable insights, the need for a novel solution became evident. Combining insights gleaned from market analysis and innovative algorithmic approaches, the Swing Point Indicator was born.
Enhanced Feature: Highs and Lows Labeling in Trend Direction
In addition to its core functionalities, the Swing Point Indicator incorporates an advanced feature that enhances the visualization of trend direction. This feature provides further clarity by selectively labeling highs and lows based on the prevailing trend, reinforcing the identification of higher highs and lower lows in uptrends and downtrends, respectively. Overlapping labels on highs and lows signify a potential trend change, providing traders with valuable insight into market reversals.
Detailed Description:
1. Uptrend Labeling:
- Higher Highs (Green Label with Price): In an uptrend, where higher highs are observed, the indicator labels these points with vibrant green color and includes the corresponding price value. This visually highlights the significance of higher highs as pivotal points in the upward trajectory of prices.
- Higher Lows (Red Marker without Text or Diamond): To complement the identification of higher highs, higher lows are marked with a distinct red marker or diamond, devoid of any accompanying text. While these points are crucial in delineating the ascending trend, their emphasis lies in their role as support levels, providing a foundation for upward price movements.
2. Downtrend Labeling:
- Lower Lows (Red Label with Price): Conversely, in a downtrend characterized by lower lows, the indicator labels these points with conspicuous red color, accompanied by the corresponding price value. Lower lows signify critical levels of downward price momentum, acting as indicators of potential bearish continuation.
- Lower Highs (Green Marker without Text or Diamond): Lower highs, indicative of downward retracements in a downtrend, are marked by distinctive green markers or diamonds without accompanying text. While these points denote temporary pauses or pullbacks in the bearish trend, their emphasis lies in their role as resistance levels, impeding upward price movements.
Functionality and Utility:
- Customizable Lookback Candle Count: Traders have the option to adjust the lookback candle count, which is set by default at 108 candles in the settings. This flexibility allows traders to tailor the indicator to their specific trading preferences and timeframes.
- Equal Highs or Lows Option: When enabled, the Swing Point Indicator can identify equal highs or equal lows, providing traders with additional insight into market dynamics.
- Formation Confirmation: A new higher high along with its higher low or a new lower low along with its lower high is confirmed after two candles have closed following the swing point candle. This ensures the reliability of the identified trend direction.
Conclusion:
The incorporation of selective labeling for highs and lows based on trend direction, alongside the introduction of customizable settings and formation confirmation criteria, enhances the effectiveness of the Swing Point Indicator. This feature-rich tool empowers traders with a nuanced understanding of market dynamics, highlighting critical price levels and trend reversals. By offering enhanced visualization, customizable options, and confirmation criteria, the Swing Point Indicator equips traders with the confidence and precision needed to navigate the markets successfully, contributing to more informed and profitable trading strategies.
ORB Heikin Ashi SPY 5min Correlation StrategyOverview:
The ORB (Opening Range Breakout) strategy combined with Heikin Ashi candles and Relative Volume (RVOL) indicator aims to capitalize on significant price movements that occur shortly after the market opens. This strategy identifies breakouts above or below the opening range, using Heikin Ashi candles for smoother price visualization and RVOL to gauge the strength of the breakout.
Components:
Opening Range Breakout (ORB): The strategy starts by defining the opening range, typically the first few minutes of the trading session. It then identifies breakouts above the high or below the low of this range as potential entry points.
Heikin Ashi Candles: Heikin Ashi candles are used to provide a smoother representation of price movements compared to traditional candlesticks. By averaging open, close, high, and low prices of the previous candle, Heikin Ashi candles reduce noise and highlight trends more effectively.
Relative Volume (RVOL): RVOL compares the current volume of a stock to its average volume over a specified period. It helps traders identify abnormal trading activity, which can signal potential price movements.
Candle for correlation : In this case we are using SPY candles. It can also use different asset
Strategy Execution:
Initialization: The strategy initializes by setting up variables and parameters, including the ORB period, session timings, and Heikin Ashi candle settings.
ORB Calculation: It calculates the opening range by identifying the high and low prices during the specified session time. These values serve as the initial reference points for potential breakouts. For this we are looking for the first 30 min of the US opening session.
After that we are going to use the next 2 hours to check for breakout opportunities.
Heikin Ashi Transformation: Optionally, the strategy transforms traditional candlestick data into Heikin Ashi format for smoother visualization and trend identification.
Breakout Identification: It continuously monitors price movements within the session and checks if the current high breaches the ORB high or if the current low breaches the ORB low. These events trigger potential long or short entry signals, respectively.
RVOL Analysis: Simultaneously, the strategy evaluates the relative volume of the asset to gauge the strength of the breakout. A surge in volume accompanying the breakout confirms the validity of the signal. In this case we are looking for at least a 1 value of the division between currentVolume and pastVolume
Entry and Exit Conditions: When a breakout occurs and is confirmed by RVOL and is within our session time, the strategy enters a long or short position accordingly. It does not have a stop loss or a takie profit level, instead it will always exit at the end of the trading session, 5 minutes before
Position Sizing and Commissions: For the purpose of this backtest, the strategy allocated 10% of the capital for each trade and assumes a trading commission of 0.01$ per share ( twice the IBKR broker values)
Session End: At the end of the trading session, the strategy closes all open positions to avoid overnight exposure.
Conclusion:
The combination of ORB breakout strategy, Heikin Ashi candles, and RVOL provides traders with a robust framework for identifying and capitalizing on early trends in the market. By leveraging these technical indicators together, traders can make more informed decisions and improve the overall performance of their trading strategies. However, like any trading strategy, it's essential to backtest thoroughly and adapt the strategy to different market conditions to ensure its effectiveness over time.

Machine Learning Breakouts (from Pivots)I developed the 'Machine Learning Breakouts (from Pivots)' indicator to revolutionize the way we detect breakout opportunities and follow trend, harnessing the power of pivot points and machine learning. This tool integrates the k-Nearest Neighbors (k-NN) method with the Euclidean distance algorithm, meticulously analyzing pivot points to accurately forecast multiple breakout paths/zones. "ML Pivots Breakouts" is designed to identify and visually alert traders on bullish breakouts above high lines and bearish breakouts below low lines, offering essential insights for breakout and trend follower traders.
For traders, the instruction is clear: a bullish breakout signal is given when the price crosses above the forecasted high line, indicating potential entry points for long positions. Conversely, a bearish breakout signal is provided when the price breaks below the forecasted low line, suggesting opportunities to enter short positions. This makes the indicator a vital asset for navigating through market volatilities and capitalizing on emerging trends, designed for both long and short strategies and adeptly adapting to market shifts.
In this indicator I operate in a two-dimensional space defined by price and time. The choice of Euclidean distance as the preferred method for this analysis hinges on its simplicity and effectiveness in measuring and predicting straight-line distances between points in this space.
The Machine Learning Breakouts (from Pivots) Indicator calculations have been transitioned to the MLPivotsBreakouts library, simplifying the process of integration. Users can now seamlessly incorporate the "breakouts" function into their scripts to conduct detailed momentum analysis with ease.
3 Pivots Interpolation BreakoutsI designed the '3 Pivots Interpolation Breakouts' indicator to intuitively identify breakout opportunities using pivot points. This tool stems from my need to anticipate market direction and capitalize on breakouts. It uses a line interpolated from three pivot highs or lows to forecast upcoming breakouts. This offers a straightforward way to visualize potential bullish and bearish breakouts with color-coded extrapolations. The aim is to simplify breakout detection, enhancing your trading strategy with precise, actionable insights.
