Elliott Wave [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
Elliott Wave automatically finds and draws an Elliott-style 5-wave impulse and a dashed projection for a potential -(a)→(b)→(c) correction. It detects six sequential reversal points from rolling highs/lows — 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, (a) — validates their relative placement, and then renders the wave with labels and horizontal reference lines. If price invalidates the structure by closing back through the Wave-5 level inside a 100-bar window, the pattern is cleared (optionally kept as “broken”) while key dotted levels remain for context.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Reversal harvesting from extremes : The script scans highest/lowest values over a user-set Length and stores swing points with their bar indices.
Six-point validation : A pattern requires six pivots (1…5 and (a)). Their vertical/temporal order must satisfy Elliott-style constraints before drawing.
Impulse + projection : After confirming 1→5, the tool plots a curved polyline through the pivots and a dashed forward path from (a) toward (b) (midpoint of 5 and (a)) and back to (c).
Risk line (invalidator) : The Wave-5 price is tracked; a close back through it within 100 bars marks the structure as broken.
Minimal persistence : When broken, the wave drawing is removed to avoid noise, while dotted horizontals for waves 5 and 4 remain as reference.
🔵 FEATURES
Automatic pivot collection from rolling highs/lows (user-controlled Length ).
Wave labeling : Points 1–5 are printed; the last collected swing is marked b
. Projected i
& i
are shown with a dashed polyline.
Breaker line & cleanup : If price closes above Wave-5 (opposite for bears) within 100 bars, the pattern is removed; only dotted levels of 5 and 4 stay.
Styling controls :
Length (pivot sensitivity)
Text Size for labels (tiny/small/normal/large)
Wave color input
Show Broken toggle to keep invalidated patterns visible
Lightweight memory : Keeps a compact buffer of recent pivots/draws to stay responsive.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Set sensitivity : Increase Length on noisy charts for cleaner pivots; decrease to catch earlier/shorter structures.
Wait for confirmation : Once 1→5 is printed and (a) appears, use the Wave-5 line as your invalidation. A close back through it within ~100 bars removes the active wave (unless Show Broken is on).
Plan with the dashed path : The (a)→(b)→(c) projection offers a scenario for potential corrective movement and risk placement.
Work MTF : Identify cleaner waves on higher TFs; refine execution on lower TFs near the breaker or during the move toward (b).
Seek confluence : Align with structure (S/R), volume/Delta, or your trend filter to avoid counter-context trades.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Elliott Wave systematizes discretionary wave analysis: it detects and labels the 5-wave impulse, projects a plausible (a)-(b)-(c) path, and self-cleans on invalidation. With clear labels, dotted reference levels, and a practical breaker rule, it gives traders an objective framework for scenario planning, invalidation, and timing.
