Volume Histogram with ThresholdsVolume Histogram with Thresholds
Description:
This indicator displays a histogram of volume bars with color coding based on customizable volume thresholds. It helps traders quickly identify potential breakouts and breakdowns by comparing current volume against a moving average of past volume.
Features:
Customizable Average Volume Period – Allows you to set a lookback period for calculating average volume.
Color-Coded Bars for Quick Visual Reference:
Gray: Below average volume (low activity)
Blue: Near average volume (normal activity)
Green: Above average volume (potential breakout/breakdown)
Red: Significantly above average volume (high-confidence move)
Plots an Orange Reference Line – Represents the average volume for easy comparison.
Usage:
Adjust "Average Volume Period" to set the moving average length for volume.
Modify "Above Average" and "High Volume" multipliers to fine-tune breakout/breakdown sensitivity.
Look for green and red bars to confirm strong moves in price action.
This indicator can help confirm the validity of breakouts and breakdowns by visually emphasizing volume surges. 🚀
Explanation of Presets in the Indicator
The indicator comes with three user-configurable settings that determine how volume is analyzed and displayed. Here’s what they do and why they matter:
1. Average Volume Period (Default: 50)
This setting controls the number of past bars used to calculate the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of volume.
A larger value (e.g., 100) smooths out fluctuations and gives a broader view of average volume trends.
A smaller value (e.g., 20) makes the average more responsive to recent volume changes.
2. Above Average Threshold (Multiplier, Default: 1.5)
This defines the first level of volume increase that is considered above average.
If the current volume is 1.5 times greater than the moving average volume, the histogram bar turns green.
You can lower this value (e.g., 1.2) to make the indicator more sensitive or increase it (e.g., 2.0) to filter out smaller spikes.
3. High Volume Threshold (Multiplier, Default: 2.5)
This determines the threshold for what is considered significantly above average volume.
If the current volume is 2.5 times greater than the moving average volume, the histogram bar turns red.
This setting helps highlight extremely strong volume surges, which are more likely to indicate high-confidence breakouts or breakdowns.
How to Adjust These Presets for Different Market Conditions
If you trade high-volatility assets, you might want to increase the multipliers (e.g., 2.0 and 3.5) to focus only on the strongest moves.
If you trade low-liquidity assets, you might need to lower the multipliers (e.g., 1.2 and 2.0) to capture smaller but meaningful volume shifts.
Short-term traders (scalping/day trading) may prefer a lower average volume period (e.g., 20) to get faster signals.
By tweaking these settings, you can adapt the indicator to your trading style and the asset you’re analyzing. 🚀

Smart Volume S/R Pro [The_lurker]مؤشر "Smart Volume S/R Pro " هو أداة تحليل فني متقدمة مصممة لمساعدة المتداولين في تحديد مستويات الدعم والمقاومة القوية بناءً على حجم التداول، مع إضافة ميزات تحليلية متطورة مثل تصفية الاتجاه ، مناطق الثقة ، تقييم القوة ، حساب احتمالية الاختراق ، قياس السيولة ، تحديد الأهداف السعرية ، ومستويات فيبوناتشي . وايضا تقديم تسميات (Labels) بجانب كل مستوى دعم ومقاومة، تحتوي على أرقام ومعلومات دقيقة تعكس حالة السوق. هذه التسميات ليست مجرد زينة، بل أدوات تحليلية تساعد المتداولين على اتخاذ قرارات مستنيرة بناءً على بيانات السوقيهدف هذا المؤشر إلى توفير رؤية شاملة للسوق .
الوظائف الرئيسية للمؤشر
1- تحديد مستويات الدعم والمقاومة بناءً على حجم التداول العالي
يقوم المؤشر بتحليل الأشرطة (Bars) السابقة (حتى 300 شريط افتراضيًا) لتحديد النقاط التي شهدت أعلى مستويات حجم التداول.
يرسم خطوط أفقية تمثل مستويات المقاومة (عند أعلى سعر في تلك الأشرطة) والدعم (عند أدنى سعر)، ويمكن للمستخدم اختيار عدد الخطوط المعروضة (من 1 إلى 6).
2- تصفية الاتجاه باستخدام مؤشر ADX
يستخدم المؤشر مؤشر الاتجاه المتوسط (ADX) لتقييم قوة الاتجاه في السوق.
عندما تكون قوة الاتجاه عالية (تتجاوز عتبة محددة، 25 افتراضيًا)، يقلل المؤشر عدد مستويات الدعم والمقاومة المعروضة للتركيز فقط على المستويات الأكثر أهمية.
3- مناطق الثقة الديناميكية
يضيف المؤشر مناطق حول مستويات الدعم والمقاومة بناءً على متوسط المدى الحقيقي (ATR)، مما يساعد المتداولين على تصور النطاقات التي قد يتفاعل فيها السعر مع هذه المستويات.
يمكن تعديل عرض هذه المناطق باستخدام مضاعف ATR.
4- تقييم قوة المستويات
يحسب المؤشر قوة كل مستوى بناءً على حجم التداول، عدد المرات التي تم اختبار المستوى فيها (Touch Count)، وقرب السعر الحالي من المستوى.
يتم عرض درجة القوة (من 0 إلى 100) بجانب كل مستوى إذا تم تفعيل هذه الخاصية.
5- احتمالية الاختراق
يقدّر المؤشر احتمالية اختراق كل مستوى بناءً على الزخم (ROC)، قوة المستوى، والمسافة بين السعر الحالي والمستوى.
يظهر الاحتمال كنسبة مئوية إذا تم تفعيل الخيار، مما يساعد المتداولين على توقع الحركات المحتملة.
6- تحليل السيولة التاريخية
يقيس المؤشر السيولة حول كل مستوى بناءً على حجم التداول في النطاقات القريبة منه.
يمكن عرض قيم السيولة في التسميات أو استخدامها لتعديل عرض الخطوط (الخطوط الأكثر سيولة تظهر أعرض).
7- الأهداف السعرية
عند تفعيل هذه الخاصية، يحسب المؤشر أهداف سعرية للاختراق (Breakout) والارتداد (Reversal) بناءً على الزخم وقوة المستوى وATR.
يمكن عرض هذه الأهداف كنصوص في التسميات أو كخطوط أفقية على الرسم البياني.
8- مستويات فيبوناتشي
يرسم المؤشر مستويات فيبوناتشي (0.0، 0.236، 0.382، 0.5، 0.618، 0.786، 1.0) بناءً على أعلى وأدنى سعر في فترة النظرة الخلفية.
يمكن للمستخدم اختيار أي من هذه المستويات لعرضها أو إخفائها.
9- تنبيه شامل للاختراق
يوفر المؤشر تنبيهًا واحدًا يشمل جميع المستويات، حيث يُطلق التنبيه عندما يخترق السعر أي مستوى دعم أو مقاومة مع رسالة توضح نوع الاختراق والمستوى المخترق.
كيفية عمل المؤشر
الخطوة الأولى: يحدد المؤشر الأشرطة ذات الحجم العالي خلال فترة النظرة الخلفية المحددة (Lookback Period).
الخطوة الثانية: يرسم مستويات الدعم والمقاومة بناءً على أعلى وأدنى الأسعار في تلك الأشرطة، مع مراعاة عدد الخطوط المختارة من المستخدم.
الخطوة الثالثة: يطبق مرشح الاتجاه (إذا كان مفعلاً) لتقليل عدد المستويات في حالة الاتجاه القوي.
الخطوة الرابعة: يضيف التحليلات الإضافية مثل القوة، السيولة، احتمالية الاختراق، والأهداف السعرية، ويرسم مناطق الثقة ومستويات فيبوناتشي حسب الإعدادات.
الخطوة الخامسة: يراقب السعر ويطلق تنبيهًا عند الاختراق.
الإعدادات القابلة للتخصيص
1- فترة النظرة الخلفية (Lookback Period): عدد الأشرطة التي يتم تحليلها (افتراضيًا 300).
2- عدد الخطوط (Number of Lines): من 1 إلى 6 مستويات دعم ومقاومة.
3- الألوان والأنماط: يمكن تغيير ألوان الخطوط وأنماطها (ممتلئة، متقطعة، منقطة).
4- التسميات: تفعيل/تعطيل التسميات، وحجمها، وموقعها، ولون النص.
5- مرشح الاتجاه: تفعيل/تعطيل ADX، وتعديل طوله وعتبته.

==================================================================================تسميات (Labels) بجانب كل مستوى دعم ومقاومة، تحتوي على أرقام ومعلومات دقيقة تعكس حالة السوق. هذه التسميات ليست مجرد زينة، بل أدوات تحليلية تساعد المتداولين على اتخاذ قرارات مستنيرة بناءً على بيانات السوق. في هذا الشرح، سنستعرض كل رقم أو قيمة تظهر في التسميات ومعناها العملي.
مكونات التسميات
التسميات تظهر بجانب كل مستوى دعم (Support) ومقاومة (Resistance) وتبدأ بحرف "S" للدعم أو "R" للمقاومة، تليها مجموعة من الأرقام والقيم التي يمكن تفعيلها أو تعطيلها حسب إعدادات المستخدم. إليك تفصيل كل عنصر:
1- عدد اللمسات (Touch Count)
الرمز: يظهر مباشرة بعد "S" أو "R" (مثال: "R: 5" أو "S: 3").
المعنى: يشير إلى عدد المرات التي اختبر فيها السعر هذا المستوى دون اختراقه.
الفائدة: كلما زاد عدد اللمسات، كلما كان المستوى أقوى وأكثر أهمية. على سبيل المثال، إذا كان "R: 5"، فهذا يعني أن السعر ارتد من هذا المستوى 5 مرات، مما يجعله مقاومة قوية محتملة.
2- قوة المستوى (Strength Rating)
الرمز: يظهر بين قوسين مربعين (مثال: " ").
المعنى: قيمة من 0 إلى 100 تعكس قوة المستوى بناءً على عوامل مثل حجم التداول، عدد اللمسات، وقرب السعر الحالي من المستوى.
الفائدة: القيم العالية (مثل 75 أو أكثر) تشير إلى مستوى قوي يصعب اختراقه، بينما القيم المنخفضة (مثل 30 أو أقل) تدل على ضعف المستوى وسهولة اختراقه. يمكن للمتداول استخدام هذا لتحديد المستويات الأكثر موثوقية.
3- احتمالية الاختراق (Breakout Probability)
الرمز: يبدأ بحرف "B" متبوعًا بنسبة مئوية (مثال: "B: 60%").
المعنى: نسبة من 0% إلى 100% تُظهر احتمالية اختراق السعر للمستوى بناءً على الزخم الحالي، قوة المستوى، والمسافة بين السعر والمستوى.
الفائدة: نسبة مرتفعة (مثل 60% أو أكثر) تعني أن السعر قد يخترق المستوى قريبًا، بينما النسب المنخفضة (مثل 20%) تشير إلى احتمال ارتداد السعر. هذا مفيد لتوقع الحركة التالية.
4- قيمة السيولة (Liquidity Value)
الرمز: يبدأ بحرف "L" متبوعًا برقم (مثال: "L: 1200").
المعنى: يمثل متوسط حجم التداول في النطاق القريب من المستوى، مما يعكس السيولة التاريخية حوله.
الفائدة: القيم العالية تدل على وجود سيولة كبيرة، مما يعني أن السعر قد يتفاعل بقوة مع هذا المستوى (إما بالارتداد أو الاختراق). القيم المنخفضة تشير إلى سيولة ضعيفة، مما قد يجعل المستوى أقل تأثيرًا.
5- الأهداف السعرية (Price Targets)
الرمز: يبدأ بـ "BT" (هدف الاختراق) و"RT" (هدف الارتداد) متبوعين بأرقام (مثال: "BT: 150.50 RT: 148.20").
المعنى:
BT (Breakout Target): السعر المحتمل الذي قد يصل إليه السعر بعد اختراق المستوى.
RT (Reversal Target): السعر المحتمل الذي قد يصل إليه السعر إذا ارتد من المستوى.
الفائدة: تساعد المتداولين في تحديد نقاط الخروج المحتملة بعد الاختراق أو الارتداد، مما يسهل وضع خطة تداول دقيقة.
أمثلة عملية
تسمية مقاومة: "R: 4 B: 25% L: 1500 BT: 155.00 RT: 152.00"
المستوى اختُبر 4 مرات، قوته 80 (قوي جدًا)، احتمالية الاختراق 25% (منخفضة، أي احتمال ارتداد أعلى)، السيولة 1500 (مرتفعة)، هدف الاختراق 155.00، هدف الارتداد 152.00.
الاستنتاج: المستوى قوي ومن المرجح أن يرتد السعر منه، لكن إذا اخترق، فقد يصل إلى 155.00.
تسمية دعم: "S: 2 B: 70% L: 800 BT: 145.00 RT: 147.50"
المستوى اختُبر مرتين، قوته 40 (متوسطة إلى ضعيفة)، احتمالية الاختراق 70% (مرتفعة)، السيولة 800 (متوسطة)، هدف الاختراق 145.00، هدف الارتداد 147.50.
الاستنتاج: المستوى ضعيف ومن المحتمل أن يخترقه السعر ليهبط إلى 145.00.
كيفية الاستفادة من التسميات
تحديد القوة والضعف: استخدم قوة المستوى (Strength) لمعرفة ما إذا كان المستوى موثوقًا للارتداد أو عرضة للاختراق.
توقع الحركة: انظر إلى احتمالية الاختراق (Breakout Probability) لتحديد ما إذا كنت ستنتظر اختراقًا أو ترتدًا.
إدارة المخاطر: استخدم الأهداف السعرية (BT وRT) لتحديد نقاط جني الأرباح أو وقف الخسارة.
تقييم السيولة: ركز على المستويات ذات السيولة العالية لأنها غالبًا تكون نقاط تحول رئيسية في السوق.
تأكيد التحليل: ادمج عدد اللمسات مع القوة والسيولة للحصول على صورة كاملة عن أهمية المستوى.
تخصيص التسميات
يمكن للمستخدم تفعيل أو تعطيل أي من هذه القيم (القوة، الاحتمالية، السيولة، الأهداف) من إعدادات المؤشر.
يمكن أيضًا تغيير حجم التسميات (صغير، عادي، كبير)، موقعها (يمين، يسار، أعلى، أسفل)، ولون النص لتناسب احتياجاتك.
التسميات في هذا المؤشر هي بمثابة لوحة تحكم صغيرة بجانب كل مستوى دعم ومقاومة، تقدم لك معلومات فورية عن قوته، احتمالية اختراقه، سيولته، وأهدافه السعرية. بفهم هذه الأرقام، يمكنك تحسين قراراتك في التداول، سواء كنت تبحث عن نقاط دخول، خروج، أو إدارة مخاطر. إذا كنت تريد أداة تجمع بين البساطة والعمق التحليلي .
تنويه:
المؤشر هو أداة مساعدة فقط ويجب استخدامه مع التحليل الفني والأساسي لتحقيق أفضل النتائج.

The Smart Volume S/R Pro indicator is an advanced technical analysis tool designed to help traders identify strong support and resistance levels based on trading volume, with the addition of advanced analytical features such as trend filtering, confidence zones, strength assessment, breakout probability calculation, liquidity measurement, price target identification, and Fibonacci levels. It also provides labels next to each support and resistance level, containing accurate numbers and information that reflect the market condition. These labels are not just decorations, but analytical tools that help traders make informed decisions based on market data. This indicator aims to provide a comprehensive view of the market.
Main functions of the indicator
1- Identifying support and resistance levels based on high trading volume
The indicator analyzes previous bars (up to 300 bars by default) to identify the points that witnessed the highest levels of trading volume.
It draws horizontal lines representing resistance levels (at the highest price in those bars) and support (at the lowest price), and the user can choose the number of lines displayed (from 1 to 6).
2- Filtering the trend using the ADX indicator
The indicator uses the Average Directional Index (ADX) to assess the strength of a trend in the market.
When the strength of the trend is high (exceeding a specified threshold, 25 by default), the indicator reduces the number of support and resistance levels displayed to focus only on the most important levels.
3- Dynamic Confidence Zones
The indicator adds zones around support and resistance levels based on the Average True Range (ATR), helping traders visualize the ranges in which the price may interact with these levels.
The width of these zones can be adjusted using the ATR multiplier.
4- Assessing the Strength of Levels
The indicator calculates the strength of each level based on trading volume, the number of times the level has been tested (Touch Count), and the proximity of the current price to the level.
A strength score (from 0 to 100) is displayed next to each level if this feature is enabled.
5- Breakout Probability
The indicator estimates the probability of breaking each level based on momentum (ROC), the strength of the level, and the distance between the current price and the level.
The probability is displayed as a percentage if the option is enabled, helping traders anticipate potential moves.
6- Historical Liquidity Analysis
The indicator measures liquidity around each level based on the trading volume in the ranges near it.
The liquidity values can be displayed in the labels or used to adjust the width of the lines (the most liquid lines appear wider).
7- Price Targets
When this feature is enabled, the indicator calculates price targets for breakout and reversal based on momentum, level strength and ATR.
These targets can be displayed as text in the labels or as horizontal lines on the chart.
8- Fibonacci Levels
The indicator plots Fibonacci levels (0.0, 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.786, 1.0) based on the highest and lowest price in the lookback period.
The user can choose which of these levels to display or hide.
9- Comprehensive Breakout Alert
The indicator provides a single alert that includes all levels, where the alert is triggered when the price breaks any support or resistance level with a message explaining the type of breakout and the level broken.
How the indicator works
Step 1: The indicator identifies the bars with high volume during the specified Lookback Period.
Step 2: Draws support and resistance levels based on the highest and lowest prices in those bars, taking into account the number of lines selected by the user.
Step 3: Apply the trend filter (if enabled) to reduce the number of levels in case of a strong trend.
Step 4: Adds additional analyses such as strength, liquidity, breakout probability, and price targets, and draws confidence zones and Fibonacci levels according to the settings.
Step 5: Monitors the price and triggers an alert when the breakout occurs.
Customizable Settings
1- Lookback Period: Number of bars to analyze (default 300).
2- Number of Lines: From 1 to 6 support and resistance levels.
3- Colors and Styles: Line colors and styles can be changed (filled, dashed, dotted).
4- Labels: Enable/disable labels, their size, location, and text color.
5- Trend Filter: Enable/disable ADX, and modify its length and threshold.
6- Confidence Zones: Enable/disable, and modify the ATR length and multiplier.
7- Strength and Breakout Probability: Enable/disable the display, and modify the ROC length.
8- Liquidity: Enable/disable the effect of liquidity on the display of the lines and their values in the labels.
9- Price Targets: Enable/disable the targets and display them as lines.
10- Fibonacci: Choose the displayed levels and the color of the lines.
Indicator Benefits
High Accuracy: It relies on trading volume to determine the levels, which makes it more reliable than random levels.
Flexibility: It provides extensive customization options that allow traders to adapt it to their strategies.
Comprehensive Analysis: Combines support and resistance, trend, liquidity, and targets in one tool. Ease of Use: Labels and alerts make it easy to follow the market without complexity.
Labels next to each support and resistance level contain accurate numbers and information that reflect the market situation. These labels are not just decorations, but analytical tools that help traders make informed decisions based on market data. In this explanation, we will review each number or value that appears in the labels and their practical meaning.
Label Components
Labels appear next to each support and resistance level and begin with the letter "S" for support or "R" for resistance, followed by a set of numbers and values that can be enabled or disabled according to the user's settings. Here is a breakdown of each element:
1- Touch Count
Symbol: Appears immediately after "S" or "R" (example: "R: 5" or "S: 3").
Meaning: Indicates the number of times the price has tested this level without breaking it.
Benefit: The more touches, the stronger and more important the level. For example, if it is "R: 5", it means that the price has bounced off this level 5 times, making it a potentially strong resistance.
2- Strength Rating
Symbol: Appears between square brackets (example: " ").
Meaning: A value from 0 to 100 that reflects the strength of the level based on factors such as trading volume, number of touches, and proximity of the current price to the level.
Benefit: High values (such as 75 or more) indicate a strong level that is difficult to break, while low values (such as 30 or less) indicate a weak level that is easy to break. A trader can use this to determine the most reliable levels.
3- Breakout Probability
Symbol: Starts with the letter "B" followed by a percentage (example: "B: 60%").
Meaning: A percentage from 0% to 100% that shows the probability of the price breaking the level based on the current momentum, the strength of the level, and the distance between the price and the level.
Interest: A high percentage (such as 60% or more) means that the price may soon break through the level, while low percentages (such as 20%) indicate that the price may bounce. This is useful for anticipating the next move.
4- Liquidity Value
Symbol: Starts with the letter "L" followed by a number (example: "L: 1200").
Meaning: Represents the average trading volume in the range near the level, reflecting historical liquidity around it.
Interest: High values indicate high liquidity, meaning that the price may react strongly to this level (either by bouncing or breaking through). Low values indicate low liquidity, which may make the level less influential.
5- Price Targets
Symbol: Starts with "BT" (breakout target) and "RT" (rebound target) followed by numbers (example: "BT: 150.50 RT: 148.20").
Meaning:
BT (Breakout Target): The potential price that the price may reach after breaking the level.
RT (Reversal Target): The potential price that the price may reach if it rebounds from the level.
Utility: Helps traders identify potential exit points after a breakout or rebound, making it easier to develop an accurate trading plan.
Working examples
Resistance label: "R: 4 B: 25% L: 1500 BT: 155.00 RT: 152.00"
Level tested 4 times, strength 80 (very strong), probability of breakout 25% (low, i.e. higher probability of rebound), liquidity 1500 (high), breakout target 155.00, rebound target 152.00.
Conclusion: The level is strong and the price is likely to rebound from it, but if it breaks, it may reach 155.00.
Support Label: "S: 2 B: 70% L: 800 BT: 145.00 RT: 147.50"
Level tested twice, Strength 40 (medium to weak), Breakout Probability 70% (high), Liquidity 800 (medium), Breakout Target 145.00, Rebound Target 147.50.
Conclusion: The level is weak and the price is likely to break it to drop to 145.00.
How to use labels
Determine strength and weakness: Use the level's strength to see if the level is reliable for a bounce or vulnerable to a breakout.
Predict the move: Look at the Breakout Probability to determine whether to wait for a breakout or a bounce.
Risk Management: Use price targets (BT and RT) to set take profit or stop loss points.
Liquidity Evaluation: Focus on levels with high liquidity as they are often key turning points in the market.
Analysis Confirmation: Combine the number of touches with strength and liquidity to get a complete picture of the level’s importance.
Customize Labels
The user can enable or disable any of these values (strength, probability, liquidity, targets) from the indicator settings.
The size of the labels (small, normal, large), their position (right, left, top, bottom), and the color of the text can also be changed to suit your needs.
The labels in this indicator act as a small dashboard next to each support and resistance level, providing you with instant information about its strength, probability of breakout, liquidity, and price targets. By understanding these numbers, you can improve your trading decisions, whether you are looking for entry points, exit points, or risk management. If you want a tool that combines simplicity with analytical depth.

Pivot Candles with MFI Opacity (No Plot)How to Use the Pivot Candles with MFI Opacity Indicator for Trade Entries and Position Management
Overview
This indicator is designed not only to display key pivot levels (support and resistance) and Money Flow Index (MFI) signals on your chart, but also to help you structure systematic order entries and position management. By combining pivot levels with dynamic MFI-based candle opacity, the indicator provides a visual framework that technical analysts and quants can use to time buy and sell stop orders as well as to pyramid positions or take profits.
Trade Entry with Pivot Levels
Buy Stop Orders Above R1:
Concept: In many technical setups, resistance levels such as R1 are viewed as potential breakout points. A buy stop order placed just above R1 allows you to enter a long position only when price decisively breaks the prior resistance, confirming bullish momentum.
How It Works:
The indicator calculates pivot levels based on the previous higher‑timeframe bar, so R1 is “locked in” for the current period.
When the current candle closes above R1, it may signal a breakout.
Technical analysts often place a buy stop order slightly above R1 (for example, a few ticks or pips above the level) to confirm the move.
Practical Application:
Quants and systematic traders can program their models to monitor when the current close exceeds R1.
Once this condition is met, a buy stop order is triggered to capture the breakout move, ensuring that you only participate if the price decisively moves upward.
Sell Stop Orders Below S1:
Concept: Conversely, S1 acts as a support level. A sell stop order placed just below S1 is designed to capture a breakdown. This order is activated when price closes below S1, indicating that selling pressure may be overwhelming.
How It Works:
With pivot levels fixed from the previous higher‑timeframe bar, S1 provides a reference for potential support.
A close below S1 can be interpreted as a sign of a bearish reversal or a continuation of a downtrend.
Practical Application:
Quants set up their systems to watch for a break below S1.
A sell stop order is positioned just below S1 to ensure that if the support level fails, the system can quickly initiate a short position to capture the downward move.
Using MFI for Position Management
Pyramiding and Profit Taking:
Dynamic Candle Opacity:
The Money Flow Index (MFI) in this indicator not only provides overbought/oversold alerts but also controls the opacity of your candlesticks. When MFI readings are high, the candles become more opaque, indicating strong buying pressure. Conversely, lower MFI values lead to more transparent candles, suggesting reduced momentum.
Pyramiding Long Positions:
Strategy:
In a strong trend, technical analysts might choose to add to a winning position gradually—a process known as pyramiding.
Implementation:
As long as the price remains above R1 and MFI readings are supportive (high and consistent), you may consider adding to your long position incrementally.
Each new buy stop order can be set above R1 with slightly adjusted trigger levels to capture further breakout strength.
Risk Management:
Quants use the MFI reading as a risk filter; if MFI begins to drop or the candles become significantly more transparent, it may be a cue to stop pyramiding or even begin taking profits.
Taking Profit Using MFI and Pivot Reversals:
Profit Targeting:
When price reaches higher resistance levels (e.g., R2 or R3) or shows signs of overextension in conjunction with extreme MFI levels (for instance, a sudden drop in MFI after a strong rally), you can begin taking partial profits.
Systematic Exit:
A systematic strategy might include scaling out of the position as the price approaches the next resistance level or when the MFI indicates that buying momentum is waning.
Similarly, for short positions entered below S1, profit targets might be set near subsequent support levels, with exits triggered if MFI suggests a reversal.
Summary
Entry Orders:
Place buy stop orders just above R1 to capture breakouts.
Place sell stop orders just below S1 to capture breakdowns.
Position Management with MFI:
Use MFI-based candle opacity as a visual indicator of momentum.
Pyramid positions in the direction of the trend when MFI confirms strength.
Consider partial exits if MFI readings start to reverse or if the price nears the next pivot level.
By following this systematic approach, technical analysts and quants can use the indicator not only as a visual tool but as an integral part of an automated or semi-automated trading system that emphasizes disciplined entries, pyramiding, and profit-taking.
Composite Indicator (Donchian + OBV)Composite Indicator (Donchian + OBV)
The Composite Indicator (Donchian + OBV) is a powerful tool designed to evaluate the strength of market breakouts and momentum trends , offering traders a comprehensive perspective on price action. This indicator combines the Donchian Channel with On-Balance Volume (OBV) to create a dynamic and easy-to-interpret metric scaled between -1 and 1 .
Key Features
Breakout Strength Analysis:
- The indicator assesses the strength of price breakouts relative to the upper and lower bounds of the Donchian Channel.
- Positive values close to 1 indicate a strong bullish breakout.
- Negative values close to -1 indicate a strong bearish breakout.
Momentum Detection with OBV:
- On-Balance Volume (OBV) tracks the cumulative buying and selling volume to gauge market momentum.
- The smoothed OBV trend ensures the momentum component aligns with price action, reducing noise.
Integrated Composite Value:
- Combines breakout strength and OBV momentum into a single metric for enhanced clarity.
- The final composite value highlights whether the market is bullish, bearish, or neutral.
Divergence Detection:
- Spot bullish divergences when the indicator rises while price falls, suggesting a potential upward reversal.
- Identify bearish divergences when the indicator falls while price rises, hinting at a potential downward reversal.
How It Works
Donchian Channel Analysis:
- Calculates the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined period to establish the upper and lower channels .
- Breakouts beyond these channels contribute to the breakout strength component.
OBV Momentum:
- Measures cumulative volume trends to validate price movements.
- Momentum is derived from the rate of change in smoothed OBV values.
Composite Calculation:
- Combines breakout strength and OBV momentum, normalized and scaled to -1 to 1 for clarity.
How to Use
Bullish Breakout:
- When the indicator value approaches 1 , it signals a strong upward breakout supported by positive OBV momentum.
- Example Action: Consider a Buy if price breaks the upper Donchian Channel with increasing OBV.
Bearish Breakout:
- When the indicator value approaches -1 , it indicates a strong downward breakout supported by negative OBV momentum.
- Example Action: Consider a Sell if price breaks the lower Donchian Channel with decreasing OBV.
Neutral Market:
- When the value is near 0 , the market is likely balanced with no significant breakout or momentum detected.
Divergence Opportunities:
- Bullish Divergence: Price makes lower lows, but the indicator trends upward → Potential upward reversal.

RY-Parabolic Stop and ReverseParabolic Stop and Reverse with Support Resistance (PSAR-SR)
Identify dynamic support and resistance levels based on price movements.
Reduce false signals often generated by the regular PSAR.
Provide more accurate trading decisions by considering previous reversal points as support and resistance.
How Does PSAR-SR Work?
PSAR Reversal Points:
When the regular PSAR generates a reversal signal, the price at that reversal point is used as support (in an uptrend) or resistance (in a downtrend).
Support and Resistance Lines:
Support: A line drawn from the previous PSAR reversal point in an uptrend.
Resistance: A line drawn from the previous PSAR reversal point in a downtrend.
Price often moves sideways between these support and resistance levels before a breakout occurs.
Breakout Above/Below Support and Resistance:
A Buy signal is generated when the price breaks above resistance with a new candle closing above it.
A Sell signal is generated when the price breaks below support with a new candle closing below it.
Strategy Using PSAR-SR
Wait for the Breakout:
Avoid buying or selling immediately when the PSAR gives a signal.
Confirm that the price breaks past the support or resistance levels and forms a new candle outside those lines.
Use Alongside Other Indicators:
PSAR-SR is not recommended as a standalone tool. Use additional confirmation indicators such as:
Moving Average: To identify long-term trends.
RSI or MACD: To confirm momentum or overbought/oversold conditions.
Advantages of PSAR-SR
Reduces False Signals:
By focusing on previous support and resistance levels, PSAR-SR avoids invalid signals.
Helps Identify Breakouts:
It provides better insight for traders to enter the market during valid breakouts.
Limitations of PSAR-SR
Not Suitable for Sideways Markets:
If the price moves sideways for an extended period, the signals may become less effective.
Requires Additional Confirmation:
Should be used in combination with other indicators to improve accuracy.
Conclusion
PSAR-SR is a helpful tool for identifying dynamic support and resistance levels and generating buy/sell signals based on price breakouts. However, it should always be used with additional indicators for confirmation to avoid false trades.
Disclaimer:
Use this indicator at your own risk, and always perform additional analysis before making any trading decisions.

Volume Surge Momentum Detector [CHE]Volume Surge Momentum Detector – Discover explosive price movements fueled by sudden volume spikes.
Volume Surge Momentum Detector – Capture Key Inflection Points Using Volume Dynamics
Description:
This indicator helps traders identify highprobability entries by focusing on volume dynamics. Significant price movements often occur when interest in a stock rises, and this is reflected in volume spikes. The Volume Analysis Indicator is designed to detect key inflection points such as breakouts and capitulations by analyzing the relationship between volume and price. It enables traders to avoid false breakouts, identify trend exhaustion, and make informed trading decisions.
Key Features:
VolumeBased Inflection Points: The indicator tracks the volume levels to detect when there is significant interest in a stock. High volume signals increased market participation, often preceding large price moves.
Breakout Detection: It identifies breakouts by detecting price moves beyond a key level (the highest price over a certain period) along with a volume spike, indicating strong momentum.
Capitulation Detection: Capitulation is detected when a strong trend weakens and reverses with increased volume, signaling potential trend exhaustion.
Volume Thresholds: By using statistical measures, the indicator identifies unusually high or low volume based on the average volume and standard deviations, helping traders to spot major turning points in the market.
This tool simplifies volume bar analysis by automatically highlighting significant volume events, which often indicate large upcoming price movements.
Detailed Breakdown:
1. Volume as a Catalyst for Price Movements:
Volume is essential for price action. Without sufficient volume, price moves may not be sustained. This indicator highlights moments of increased market interest by tracking significant volume increases, helping traders stay ahead of major price movements.
2. Breakouts and Capitulation Detection:
Breakout: Detected when the volume exceeds an upper threshold (based on two standard deviations above the average volume) and the price breaks above the highest close of the previous period. These moments are marked with green labels on the chart.
Capitulation: Detected when volume increases significantly but the trend cannot sustain itself, and the price reverses below the lowest close of the previous period. These moments are marked with red labels on the chart, indicating potential trend exhaustion.
3. Sentiment and Market Dynamics:
Market sentiment can lead to price inflections when one side of the market becomes overbought or exhausted. Volume spikes in either direction provide clues as to whether a trend will continue or reverse. This indicator helps identify these critical points by monitoring volume patterns.
4. Visual Representation:
Green Bars: High volume indicating strong market interest or momentum.
Red Bars: Low volume, signaling potential lack of interest or exhaustion.
Gray Bars: Normal volume, helping to distinguish significant market events from regular activity.
Breakout and Capitulation Labels: Green labels for breakouts and red labels for capitulation points are shown directly on the chart for easy reference.
5. Alerts for Key Signals:
Breakout Alert: Notifies traders when a breakout occurs with strong volume, indicating a potential for significant price movement.
Capitulation Alert: Alerts traders when a capitulation occurs, suggesting a trend reversal.
High and Low Volume Alerts: Receive notifications when the volume exceeds the upper or lower thresholds, highlighting key moments of market interest or disinterest.
Why This Indicator Matters:
Traders often miss significant price moves or enter too late. This indicator helps traders by identifying highprobability entry points before the stock makes major moves. By focusing on volume spikes, the indicator provides insight into market sentiment and allows traders to act quickly.
How It Works:
1. Calculate Volume Significance: The indicator calculates the average volume over a userdefined period (`length`) and identifies significant deviations using standard deviations.
2. Mark Key Levels: Breakouts are detected when price moves above recent highs with significant volume, while capitulation is flagged when trends show exhaustion with a volume spike and price reversal.
3. Receive Alerts: Traders can set up alerts for key events like breakouts, capitulations, and significant volume changes to stay informed in realtime.
Perfect For:
Active traders looking to spot early market movements driven by volume changes.
Traders who want to avoid false breakouts by confirming price moves with volume spikes.
Swing traders identifying capitulation points to reduce exposure or enter positions on trend reversals.
How to Use:
Customize the "Average Period" to determine how many bars are used to calculate the average volume.
Adjust the "Multiplier for Standard Deviation" to finetune the sensitivity of high and low volume detection.
Enable alerts to receive realtime notifications for breakouts, capitulations, or volume spikes.
Conclusion:
Volume analysis is essential to understanding stock movements. This indicator simplifies the process of identifying breakouts and capitulation points by using volume dynamics. Whether you are a beginner looking for powerful tools or an experienced trader refining your strategy, this indicator offers valuable insights into market behavior driven by volume.
Additional Insights:
1. Statistical Significance: The use of standard deviations to identify high and low volume gives the indicator a statistical basis, helping to reduce noise and false signals.
2. Flexible Alerts: Traders can set up custom alerts based on their trading preferences, whether they focus on volume changes or price breakouts and reversals.

E9 Shark-32 PatternUnderstanding the Shark-32 Pattern and its Trading Applications
The Shark-32 Pattern is a bearish technical trading formation used to predict market reversals or trend continuations. It highlights a downward move followed by a corrective rally, signaling a potential resumption of the downtrend. Here’s a breakdown of how it works:
What is the Shark-32 Pattern?
The Shark-32 pattern is a five-wave structure typically observed in bearish markets:
Wave 0 to X: A significant price decline starts the pattern.
Wave X to A: A correction pushes the price slightly upward.
Wave A to B: The price drops again but doesn’t reach the initial low.
Wave B to C: A final sharp decline concludes the pattern.
Once Wave C is formed, it suggests that the market will continue to move downward, presenting a potential selling or shorting opportunity.
Using the Pattern in Trading
This pattern is valuable for traders seeking high-probability bearish setups. The goal is to capitalize on the continuation of a downtrend following the corrective rally (X to A). Identifying the Shark-32 pattern helps anticipate the next wave of selling pressure.
Trading Setup
Identify a Shark-32 pattern.
If the price closes above the pattern's high, buy at the open the next day.
If the price closes below the pattern's low, short at the open the next day.
Sell/cover when the price moves 7% in the direction of the breakout.
Close the trade for a loss if the price moves 7% in the opposite direction.
For example, in a bull market after an upward breakout from a Shark-32, the net gain was $69.55. The method won 56% of the time with 5,218 winning trades and an average gain of $714.07. Conversely, 44% of trades were losers, with an average loss of $747.33. The average holding period was 26 calendar days.
The gains and losses were closely aligned with the 7% threshold set for this test.
Key Target Levels
To enhance the strategy, use dotted projection lines as target levels:
Upper Target: Drawn above the high of the corrective rally (Wave A). If the price breaks above this line, it may signal further upward movement, indicating a potentially weaker downtrend.
Lower Target: Positioned below the low of Wave C, providing a target for bearish trades.
These lines help determine future price targets and assist in setting take-profit or stop-loss levels.
Trading the Breakout
Look for breakouts once the Shark-32 pattern is identified:
Upward Breakout: If the price closes above the green line (high from two bars ago), it indicates a potential reversal to the upside.
Downward Breakout: If the price breaks below the red line (low from two bars ago), it confirms the bearish continuation.
Breakouts allow traders to adjust their positions based on market shifts.
Trading Tips
Continuation: The Shark-32 pattern acts as a continuation 60% of the time, confirming the ongoing trend.
Breakout Confirmation: Wait for the price to close above or below the pattern’s key levels before entering a trade.
Trade with the Trend: Since the Shark-32 is a continuation pattern, expect the breakout to align with the inbound price trend.
Symmetry: Patterns with symmetry often perform better. For more insights, refer to detailed trading literature.
Half-Staff: The Shark-32 can form midway in a trend, similar to flags and pennants.
Shark-32: Trading Performance
Based on an analysis of 23,369 trades, the following performance metrics were observed:
Bull Market with Upward Breakout: The average net profit was $69.55. This method won 56% of the time, with winning trades averaging $714.07. Losing trades, which constituted 44% of the total, had an average loss of $747.33. The average holding period was 26 calendar days.
Bull Market with Downward Breakout: The average net loss was $(76.36). This method won 43% of the time, with winning trades averaging $753.56. Losing trades, which constituted 57% of the total, had an average loss of $706.32. The average holding period was 23 calendar days.
Bear Market with Upward Breakout: The average net loss was $(89.13). This method won 46% of the time, with winning trades averaging $710.77. Losing trades, which constituted 54% of the total, had an average loss of $756.97. The average holding period was 16 calendar days.
Bear Market with Downward Breakout: The average net profit was $65.17. This method won 52% of the time, with winning trades averaging $781.62. Losing trades, which constituted 48% of the total, had an average loss of $722.41. The average holding period was 13 calendar days.
PERFECT PIVOT RANGE DR ABIRAM SIVPRASAD (PPR)PERFECT PIVOT RANGE (PPR) by Dr. Abhiram Sivprasad
The Perfect Pivot Range (PPR) indicator is designed to provide traders with a comprehensive view of key support and resistance levels based on pivot points across different timeframes. This versatile tool allows users to visualize daily, weekly, and monthly pivots along with high and low levels from previous periods, helping traders identify potential areas of price reversals or breakouts.
Features:
Multi-Timeframe Pivots:
Daily, weekly, and monthly pivot levels (Pivot Point, Support 1 & 2, Resistance 1 & 2).
Helps traders understand price levels across various timeframes, from short-term (daily) to long-term (monthly).
Previous High-Low Levels:
Displays the previous week, month, and day high-low levels to highlight key zones of historical support and resistance.
Traders can easily see areas of price action from prior periods, giving context for future price movements.
Customizable Options:
Users can choose which pivot levels and high-lows to display, allowing for flexibility based on trading preferences.
Visual settings can be toggled on and off to suit different trading strategies and timeframes.
Real-Time Data:
All pivot points and levels are dynamically calculated based on real-time price data, ensuring accurate and up-to-date information for decision-making.
How to Use:
Pivot Points: Use daily, weekly, or monthly pivot points to find potential support or resistance levels. Prices above the pivot suggest bullish sentiment, while prices below indicate bearishness.
Previous High-Low: The high-low levels from previous days, weeks, or months can serve as critical zones where price may reverse or break through, indicating potential trade entries or exits.
Confluence: When pivot points or high-low levels overlap across multiple timeframes, they become even stronger levels of support or resistance.
This indicator is suitable for all types of traders (scalpers, swing traders, and long-term investors) looking to enhance their technical analysis and make more informed trading decisions.
Here are three detailed trading strategies for using the Perfect Pivot Range (PPR) indicator for options, stocks, and commodities:
1. Options Buying Strategy with PPR Indicator
Strategy: Buying Call and Put Options Based on Pivot Breakouts
Objective: To capitalize on sharp price movements when key pivot levels are breached, leading to high returns with limited risk in options trading.
Timeframe: 15-minute to 1-hour chart for intraday option trading.
Steps:
Identify the Key Levels:
Use weekly pivots for intraday trading, as they provide more significant levels for options.
Enable the "Previous Week High-Low" to gauge support and resistance from the previous week.
Call Option Setup (Bullish Breakout):
Condition: If the price breaks above the weekly pivot point (PP) with high momentum (indicated by a strong bullish candle), it signifies potential bullishness.
Action: Buy Call Options at the breakout of the weekly pivot.
Confirmation: Check if the price is sustaining above the pivot with a minimum of 1-2 candles (depending on timeframe) and the first resistance (R1) isn’t too far away.
Target: The first resistance (R1) or previous week’s high can be your target for exiting the trade.
Stop-Loss: Set a stop-loss just below the pivot point (PP) to limit risk.
Put Option Setup (Bearish Breakdown):
Condition: If the price breaks below the weekly pivot (PP) with strong bearish momentum, it’s a signal to expect a downward move.
Action: Buy Put Options on a breakdown below the weekly pivot.
Confirmation: Ensure that the price is closing below the pivot, and check for declining volumes or bearish candles.
Target: The first support (S1) or the previous week’s low.
Stop-Loss: Place the stop-loss just above the pivot point (PP).
Example:
Let’s say the weekly pivot point (PP) is at 1500, the price breaks above and sustains at 1510. You buy a Call Option with a strike price near 1500, and the target will be the first resistance (R1) at 1530.
2. Stock Trading Strategy with PPR Indicator
Strategy: Swing Trading Using Pivot Points and Previous High-Low Levels
Objective: To capture mid-term stock price movements using pivot points and historical high-low levels for better trade entries and exits.
Timeframe: 1-day or 4-hour chart for swing trading.
Steps:
Identify the Trend:
Start by determining the overall trend of the stock using the weekly pivots. If the price is consistently above the pivot point (PP), the trend is bullish; if below, the trend is bearish.
Buy Setup (Bullish Trend Reversal):
Condition: When the stock bounces off the weekly pivot point (PP) or previous week’s low, it signals a bullish reversal.
Action: Enter a long position near the pivot or previous week’s low.
Confirmation: Look for a bullish candle pattern or increasing volumes.
Target: Set your first target at the first resistance (R1) or the previous week’s high.
Stop-Loss: Place your stop-loss just below the previous week’s low or support (S1).
Sell Setup (Bearish Trend Reversal):
Condition: When the price hits the weekly resistance (R1) or previous week’s high and starts to reverse downwards, it’s an opportunity to short-sell the stock.
Action: Enter a short position near the resistance.
Confirmation: Watch for bearish candle patterns or decreasing volume at the resistance.
Target: Your first target would be the weekly pivot point (PP), with the second target as the previous week’s low.
Stop-Loss: Set a stop-loss just above the resistance (R1).
Use Previous High-Low Levels:
The previous week’s high and low are key levels where price reversals often occur, so use them as reference points for potential entry and exit.
Example:
Stock XYZ is trading at 200. The previous week’s low is 195, and it bounces off that level. You enter a long position with a target of 210 (previous week’s high) and place a stop-loss at 193.
3. Commodity Trading Strategy with PPR Indicator
Strategy: Trend Continuation and Reversal in Commodities
Objective: To capitalize on the strong trends in commodities by using pivot points as key support and resistance levels for trend continuation and reversal.
Timeframe: 1-hour to 4-hour charts for commodities like Gold, Crude Oil, Silver, etc.
Steps:
Identify the Trend:
Use monthly pivots for long-term commodities trading since commodities often follow macroeconomic trends.
The monthly pivot point (PP) will give an idea of the long-term trend direction.
Trend Continuation Setup (Bullish Commodity):
Condition: If the price is consistently trading above the monthly pivot and pulling back towards the pivot without breaking below it, it indicates a bullish continuation.
Action: Enter a long position when the price tests the monthly pivot (PP) and starts moving up again.
Confirmation: Look for a strong bullish candle or an increase in volume to confirm the continuation.
Target: The first resistance (R1) or previous month’s high.
Stop-Loss: Place the stop-loss below the monthly pivot (PP).
Trend Reversal Setup (Bearish Commodity):
Condition: When the price reverses from the monthly resistance (R1) or previous month’s high, it’s a signal for a bearish reversal.
Action: Enter a short position at the resistance level.
Confirmation: Watch for bearish candle patterns or decreasing volumes at the resistance.
Target: Set your first target as the monthly pivot (PP) or the first support (S1).
Stop-Loss: Stop-loss should be placed just above the resistance level.
Using Previous High-Low for Swing Trades:
The previous month’s high and low are important in commodities. They often act as barriers to price movement, so traders should look for breakouts or reversals near these levels.
Example:
Gold is trading at $1800, with a monthly pivot at $1780 and the previous month’s high at $1830. If the price pulls back to $1780 and starts moving up again, you enter a long trade with a target of $1830, placing your stop-loss below $1770.
Key Points Across All Strategies:
Multiple Timeframes: Always use a combination of timeframes for confirmation. For example, a daily chart may show a bullish setup, but the weekly pivot levels can provide a larger trend context.
Volume: Volume is key in confirming the strength of price movement. Always confirm breakouts or reversals with rising or declining volume.
Risk Management: Set tight stop-loss levels just below support or above resistance to minimize risk and lock in profits at pivot points.
Each of these strategies leverages the powerful pivot and high-low levels provided by the PPR indicator to give traders clear entry, exit, and risk management points across different markets
Tomorrow Floor Pivots with CPR By Nifty ZThe colors for resistance and support levels have been updated to gradient reds and greens for clearer distinction.
The CPR band uses light blue and purple to stand out more effectively.
Here's a detailed explanation of the user inputs and the typical use of **Floor Pivots for Tomorrow’s Market Range** in a trading context, focusing on support, resistance, and breakout scenarios:
The script allows traders to customize key parameters for their analysis:
1. Pivot Timeframe:
- Users can select different timeframes for calculating floor pivots, such as 1 hour, 4 hours, daily, weekly, monthly, etc.
- This is crucial because the timeframe selection influences the granularity of the support and resistance levels for the next trading day.
- For instance, selecting a **Daily** timeframe will calculate floor pivots for the next trading day, while selecting **Weekly** will give levels for the upcoming week.
2. Show Floor Pivots:
- Users can toggle the visibility of the calculated **Floor Pivots**, which include resistance levels (R1, R2, R3, R4) and support levels (S1, S2, S3, S4).
3. Show CPR (Central Pivot Range):
- CPR (Central Pivot Range) is a key area where the price tends to consolidate.
- The script allows users to enable or disable the visibility of CPR, which consists of the BC (Bottom Central Pivot) and TC (Top Central Pivot).
4. Show Labels:
- Users can choose whether or not to display labels indicating the **Pivot**, **Support**, and Resistance levels on the chart. This can be helpful for visual analysis when day trading.
Understanding Floor Pivots
The Floor Pivots (Pivot, Resistance, and Support levels) for tomorrow's market range are calculated based on today’s high, low, and close. These levels help traders anticipate how the market may behave in the upcoming session.
1. Pivot:
- The Pivot Point is a central level, calculated as the average of the high, low, and close. It’s considered a reference point that determines the market’s overall bias.
- If the price is trading **above the pivot**, it generally suggests a **bullish** sentiment for the day.
- If the price is trading **below the pivot**, it suggests a **bearish** sentiment.
2. Resistance Levels (R1, R2, R3, R4):
- R1 is often the first area where price may stall in an uptrend. It represents the first major resistance level.
- **R2**, **R3**, and **R4** mark additional levels of resistance, progressively further away from the current price. These are used to project potential upward targets.
- These resistance levels are areas where the price might encounter selling pressure, especially during day trading.
3. **Support Levels (S1, S2, S3, S4):**
- Similarly, **S1** is the first area where the price might find support in a downtrend.
- **S2**, **S3**, and **S4** provide deeper support levels where the price may bounce from.
- These support zones are used by day traders to anticipate where the price might reverse upward.
### **Role of Resistance and Support in Day Trading**
- **Resistance Levels (R1, R2, R3, R4)** indicate potential areas where price could **stall** during an uptrend. These levels are useful for **short-term traders** looking to set exit points or identify reversal zones.
- **Support Levels (S1, S2, S3, S4)** highlight areas where the price could **find support** and potentially **bounce** higher. These levels are particularly helpful for identifying buy zones in a downtrend.
- If a price **breaks out** above the resistance levels or **breaks down** below the support levels, it often signals a strong trend continuation.
### **Understanding the Central Pivot Range (CPR)**
The **CPR** is formed by two key levels:
- **BC (Bottom Central Pivot):** The midpoint of the day’s high and low.
- **TC (Top Central Pivot):** The difference between the pivot and BC.
The CPR acts as a region of **consolidation** or **indecision** where the market is likely to stay within a narrow range. The width of the CPR gives traders a sense of volatility:
- A **narrow CPR** often signals that a **breakout** is imminent.
- A **wider CPR** suggests that the market could remain range-bound.
### **Market Sentiment Based on Floor Pivots**
The relationship between **today’s** and **tomorrow’s pivots** is crucial in determining the market sentiment for the next day.
1. **Bullish Case (Higher Highs):**
- If **tomorrow's pivot** is higher than **today's pivot**, it indicates a **bullish sentiment**. This suggests that the market is likely to trend upward in the next session.
- In a **bullish overlapping pivot range**, if **Day 1 (today)** is higher than **Day 2 (tomorrow)**, traders expect continued upward momentum.
2. **Bearish Case (Lower Lows):**
- Conversely, if **tomorrow's pivot** is lower than **today's pivot**, it suggests a **bearish sentiment** and that the market could trend downward in the next session.
- In a **bearish overlapping pivot range**, if **Day 1 (today)** is lower than **Day 2 (tomorrow)**, traders expect continued downward pressure.
### **Breakout Scenarios**
A breakout occurs when the price **violates either the support or resistance levels** significantly, indicating that the price is moving in the direction of the breakout.
1. **Bullish Breakout:**
- If the price consistently stays **above the CPR** and **resistance levels (R1, R2)**, it indicates a strong **bullish breakout**.
- This is especially true when the **CPR is narrow** for both days, signaling a buildup in price action and a potential breakout to the upside.
2. **Bearish Breakout:**
- If the price breaks **below the CPR** and **support levels (S1, S2)**, it indicates a **bearish breakout**.
- A narrow CPR on **both days** suggests that a breakout to the downside could be imminent.
3. **Neutral or Ranging Days:**
- Sometimes, the CPR stays **unchanged** for 4-5 days, indicating a period of **consolidation** where the price is moving within a tight range. This often leads to a significant breakout once the consolidation ends.
Strategic Application of Floor Pivots for Tomorrow
Traders use floor pivots to plan their next-day trades by:
- **Aligning with Market Sentiment:** Based on whether tomorrow’s pivot is higher or lower than today’s, traders can align their trades in the direction of the market’s overall bias.
- **Identifying Entry and Exit Points:** Resistance and support levels provide well-defined areas to enter or exit trades, making pivots essential for day trading strategies.
- **Anticipating Breakouts:** Monitoring the width of the CPR and the relation between pivots helps traders anticipate potential breakouts, allowing them to react quickly to sudden price movements.
By effectively using these pivots and understanding their significance, traders can improve their decision-making for short-term trades in the stock or futures markets.
Inverse Head and Shoulders Patterns [theEccentricTrader]█ OVERVIEW
This indicator automatically draws inverse head and shoulders patterns and price projections derived from the ranges that constitute the patterns.
█ CONCEPTS
Green and Red Candles
• A green candle is one that closes with a close price equal to or above the price it opened.
• A red candle is one that closes with a close price that is lower than the price it opened.
Swing Highs and Swing Lows
• A swing high is a green candle or series of consecutive green candles followed by a single red candle to complete the swing and form the peak.
• A swing low is a red candle or series of consecutive red candles followed by a single green candle to complete the swing and form the trough.
Peak and Trough Prices (Basic)
• The peak price of a complete swing high is the high price of either the red candle that completes the swing high or the high price of the preceding green candle, depending on which is higher.
• The trough price of a complete swing low is the low price of either the green candle that completes the swing low or the low price of the preceding red candle, depending on which is lower.
Historic Peaks and Troughs
The current, or most recent, peak and trough occurrences are referred to as occurrence zero. Previous peak and trough occurrences are referred to as historic and ordered numerically from right to left, with the most recent historic peak and trough occurrences being occurrence one.
Upper Trends
• A return line uptrend is formed when the current peak price is higher than the preceding peak price.
• A downtrend is formed when the current peak price is lower than the preceding peak price.
• A double-top is formed when the current peak price is equal to the preceding peak price.
Lower Trends
• An uptrend is formed when the current trough price is higher than the preceding trough price.
• A return line downtrend is formed when the current trough price is lower than the preceding trough price.
• A double-bottom is formed when the current trough price is equal to the preceding trough price.
Range
The range is simply the difference between the current peak and current trough prices, generally expressed in terms of points or pips.
Support and Resistance
• Support refers to a price level where the demand for an asset is strong enough to prevent the price from falling further.
• Resistance refers to a price level where the supply of an asset is strong enough to prevent the price from rising further.
Support and resistance levels are important because they can help traders identify where the price of an asset might pause or reverse its direction, offering potential entry and exit points. For example, a trader might look to buy an asset when it approaches a support level , with the expectation that the price will bounce back up. Alternatively, a trader might look to sell an asset when it approaches a resistance level , with the expectation that the price will drop back down.
It's important to note that support and resistance levels are not always relevant, and the price of an asset can also break through these levels and continue moving in the same direction.
Breakouts and Breakdowns
• A breakout occurs when the price of an asset breaks above a resistance level.
• A breakdown occurs when the price of an asset breaks below a support level.
• A confirmed breakout occurs when the price of an asset breaks and closes above a resistance level.
• A confirmed breakdown occurs when the price of an asset breaks and closes below a support level.
It's important to note that breakouts and breakdowns of resistance and support levels are not always relevant, and the price of an asset can also reverse once it has broken through a level to carry on in the opposite direction.
Trendlines
Trendlines are straight lines that are drawn between two or more points on a price chart. These lines are used as dynamic support and resistance levels for making strategic decisions and predictions about future price movements. For example traders will look for price movements along, and reactions to, trendlines in the form of rejections or breakouts/downs.
Inverse Head and Shoulders Patterns
Inverse head and shoulders patterns are generally characterised by three troughs with the one in the middle being the lowest of the three.
The current peak acts as neckline resistance and the trendline drawn from the preceding peak to current peak acts as dynamic neckline resistance.
Traders typically look for breakouts of Inverse head and shoulders necklines to identify potential trading opportunities, with targets and stop losses set as multiples of the pattern's range.

Inputs
• Show Historic
• Show Necklines

• Pattern Color
• Pattern Neckline Color
• Extend Current Pattern Lines

█ LIMITATIONS
All green and red candle calculations are based on differences between open and close prices, as such I have made no attempt to account for green candles that gap lower and close below the close price of the preceding candle, or red candles that gap higher and close above the close price of the preceding candle. This may cause some unexpected behaviour on some markets and timeframes. I can only recommend using 24-hour markets, if and where possible, as there are far fewer gaps and, generally, more data to work with.

• A green candle is one that closes with a close price equal to or above the price it opened.
• A red candle is one that closes with a close price that is lower than the price it opened.
Swing Highs and Swing Lows
• A swing high is a green candle or series of consecutive green candles followed by a single red candle to complete the swing and form the peak.
• A swing low is a red candle or series of consecutive red candles followed by a single green candle to complete the swing and form the trough.
Peak and Trough Prices (Basic)
• The peak price of a complete swing high is the high price of either the red candle that completes the swing high or the high price of the preceding green candle, depending on which is higher.
• The trough price of a complete swing low is the low price of either the green candle that completes the swing low or the low price of the preceding red candle, depending on which is lower.
Historic Peaks and Troughs
The current, or most recent, peak and trough occurrences are referred to as occurrence zero. Previous peak and trough occurrences are referred to as historic and ordered numerically from right to left, with the most recent historic peak and trough occurrences being occurrence one.
Upper Trends
• A return line uptrend is formed when the current peak price is higher than the preceding peak price.
• A downtrend is formed when the current peak price is lower than the preceding peak price.
• A double-top is formed when the current peak price is equal to the preceding peak price.
Lower Trends
• An uptrend is formed when the current trough price is higher than the preceding trough price.
• A return line downtrend is formed when the current trough price is lower than the preceding trough price.
• A double-bottom is formed when the current trough price is equal to the preceding trough price.
Range
The range is simply the difference between the current peak and current trough prices, generally expressed in terms of points or pips.
Support and Resistance
• Support refers to a price level where the demand for an asset is strong enough to prevent the price from falling further.
• Resistance refers to a price level where the supply of an asset is strong enough to prevent the price from rising further.
Support and resistance levels are important because they can help traders identify where the price of an asset might pause or reverse its direction, offering potential entry and exit points. For example, a trader might look to buy an asset when it approaches a support level , with the expectation that the price will bounce back up. Alternatively, a trader might look to sell an asset when it approaches a resistance level , with the expectation that the price will drop back down.
It's important to note that support and resistance levels are not always relevant, and the price of an asset can also break through these levels and continue moving in the same direction.
Breakouts and Breakdowns
• A breakout occurs when the price of an asset breaks above a resistance level.
• A breakdown occurs when the price of an asset breaks below a support level.
• A confirmed breakout occurs when the price of an asset breaks and closes above a resistance level.
• A confirmed breakdown occurs when the price of an asset breaks and closes below a support level.
It's important to note that breakouts and breakdowns of resistance and support levels are not always relevant, and the price of an asset can also reverse once it has broken through a level to carry on in the opposite direction.
Trendlines
Trendlines are straight lines that are drawn between two or more points on a price chart. These lines are used as dynamic support and resistance levels for making strategic decisions and predictions about future price movements. For example traders will look for price movements along, and reactions to, trendlines in the form of rejections or breakouts/downs.
Head and Shoulders Patterns
Head and shoulders patterns are generally characterised by three peaks with the one in the middle being the highest of the three.
The current trough acts as neckline support and the trendline drawn from the preceding trough to current trough acts as dynamic neckline support.
Traders typically look for breakdowns of head and shoulders necklines to identify potential trading opportunities, with targets and stop losses set as multiples of the pattern's range.

█ LIMITATIONS
All green and red candle calculations are based on differences between open and close prices, as such I have made no attempt to account for green candles that gap lower and close below the close price of the preceding candle, or red candles that gap higher and close above the close price of the preceding candle. This may cause some unexpected behaviour on some markets and timeframes. I can only recommend using 24-hour markets, if and where possible, as there are far fewer gaps and, generally, more data to work with.

Descending Inverse Head and Shoulders Patterns
Descending inverse head and shoulders patterns are generally characterised by three troughs with the one in the middle being the lowest of the three and the third trough being lower than the first. Similarly, the two peaks that connect the three troughs are also descending, with the second peak, or right shoulder peak, being lower than the preceding peak, or left shoulder peak.
The current peak acts as neckline resistance and the trendline drawn from the preceding peak to current peak acts as dynamic neckline resistance.
Traders typically look for breakouts of descending head and shoulders necklines to identify potential trading opportunities, with targets and stop losses set as multiples of the pattern's range.

All green and red candle calculations are based on differences between open and close prices, as such I have made no attempt to account for green candles that gap lower and close below the close price of the preceding candle, or red candles that gap higher and close above the close price of the preceding candle. This may cause some unexpected behaviour on some markets and timeframes. I can only recommend using 24-hour markets, if and where possible, as there are far fewer gaps and, generally, more data to work with.
Ascending Broadening Patterns [theEccentricTrader]█ OVERVIEW
This indicator automatically draws ascending broadening patterns and price projections derived from the ranges that constitute the patterns.
█ CONCEPTS
Green and Red Candles
• A green candle is one that closes with a close price equal to or above the price it opened.
• A red candle is one that closes with a close price that is lower than the price it opened.
Swing Highs and Swing Lows
• A swing high is a green candle or series of consecutive green candles followed by a single red candle to complete the swing and form the peak.
• A swing low is a red candle or series of consecutive red candles followed by a single green candle to complete the swing and form the trough.
Peak and Trough Prices (Basic)
• The peak price of a complete swing high is the high price of either the red candle that completes the swing high or the high price of the preceding green candle, depending on which is higher.
• The trough price of a complete swing low is the low price of either the green candle that completes the swing low or the low price of the preceding red candle, depending on which is lower.
Historic Peaks and Troughs
The current, or most recent, peak and trough occurrences are referred to as occurrence zero. Previous peak and trough occurrences are referred to as historic and ordered numerically from right to left, with the most recent historic peak and trough occurrences being occurrence one.
Upper Trends
• A return line uptrend is formed when the current peak price is higher than the preceding peak price.
• A downtrend is formed when the current peak price is lower than the preceding peak price.
• A double-top is formed when the current peak price is equal to the preceding peak price.
Lower Trends
• An uptrend is formed when the current trough price is higher than the preceding trough price.
• A return line downtrend is formed when the current trough price is lower than the preceding trough price.
• A double-bottom is formed when the current trough price is equal to the preceding trough price.
Double Trends
• A double uptrend is formed when the current trough price is higher than the preceding trough price and the current peak price is higher than the preceding peak price.
• A double downtrend is formed when the current peak price is lower than the preceding peak price and the current trough price is lower than the preceding trough price.
Range
The range is simply the difference between the current peak and current trough prices, generally expressed in terms of points or pips.
Support and Resistance
• Support refers to a price level where the demand for an asset is strong enough to prevent the price from falling further.
• Resistance refers to a price level where the supply of an asset is strong enough to prevent the price from rising further.
Support and resistance levels are important because they can help traders identify where the price of an asset might pause or reverse its direction, offering potential entry and exit points. For example, a trader might look to buy an asset when it approaches a support level , with the expectation that the price will bounce back up. Alternatively, a trader might look to sell an asset when it approaches a resistance level , with the expectation that the price will drop back down.
It's important to note that support and resistance levels are not always relevant, and the price of an asset can also break through these levels and continue moving in the same direction.
Breakouts and Breakdowns
• A breakout occurs when the price of an asset breaks above a resistance level.
• A breakdown occurs when the price of an asset breaks below a support level.
• A confirmed breakout occurs when the price of an asset breaks and closes above a resistance level.
• A confirmed breakdown occurs when the price of an asset breaks and closes below a support level.
It's important to note that breakouts and breakdowns of resistance and support levels are not always relevant, and the price of an asset can also reverse once it has broken through a level to carry on in the opposite direction.
Trendlines
Trendlines are straight lines that are drawn between two or more points on a price chart. These lines are used as dynamic support and resistance levels for making strategic decisions and predictions about future price movements. For example traders will look for price movements along, and reactions to, trendlines in the form of rejections or breakouts/downs.
Ascending Broadening Patterns
Ascending broadening patterns are generally characterised by ascending diverging trendlines drawn from four points that form a broadening shape, or megaphone. Traders typically look for breakouts or breakdowns of ascending broadening patterns to identify potential trading opportunities, with targets and stop losses set as multiples of the pattern's range.

Daily/Weekly Wick (Shadow) Range📈 Detailed Guide to the Daily/Weekly Wick (Shadow) Range Indicator
This indicator is a powerful visualization tool designed to map the key price levels established during the previous trading period (either the previous day or the previous week). Instead of just showing a single line for the high and low, it highlights the entire range of the upper and lower wicks (shadows), representing the "battleground" where buyers and sellers were most active.
How It Works
The Wick (Shadow) Range indicator fetches the Open, High, Low, and Close data from the last completed daily or weekly candle and projects those levels onto your current chart. This creates two distinct colored zones.
Upper Wick (Green Zone): This area spans from the Previous High down to the top of the Previous Candle's Body. It visually represents the territory where sellers successfully pushed the price down from its peak. This entire zone can be considered a resistance area.
Lower Wick (Red Zone): This area spans from the bottom of the Previous Candle's Body down to the Previous Low. It shows where buyers stepped in to defend a price level and push it back up. This entire zone can be considered a support area.
How to Use It in Your Trading
This indicator isn't meant to give direct buy or sell signals on its own. Instead, it provides crucial context about market structure. Here are several ways to incorporate it into your strategy:
1. Identifying Key Support & Resistance
This is the indicator's primary function. The most significant levels are:
Key Resistance: The top edge of the green zone (the previous period's high).
Key Support: The bottom edge of the red zone (the previous period's low).
Look for the current price to react when it approaches these boundaries. These are high-probability areas for price to pause or reverse.
2. Watching for Price Rejection (Reversal Trading)
The colored zones are perfect for spotting rejection signals.
Bearish Rejection 📉: If the current price enters the green zone but fails to stay there, closing back below it (often forming a new wick), it's a strong sign that sellers are still in control at that level. This can be an excellent entry signal for a short position.
Bullish Rejection 📈: If the current price dips into the red zone and is quickly bought back up, it shows that buyers are actively defending that area. This can be a great entry signal for a long position.
3. Confirming Breakouts (Trend Trading)
The zones also help validate breakouts.
Bullish Breakout: If the price pushes decisively through the entire green zone and closes above the previous high, it signals that the previous resistance has been broken and the trend may continue upward.
Bearish Breakdown: If the price falls decisively through the entire red zone and closes below the previous low, it confirms that support has failed and the price may continue downward.
4. Setting Context with Timeframes
Weekly Setting: Use the "Weekly" option to identify major, significant support and resistance levels that can influence the market for the entire week. These are powerful levels for swing trading.
Daily Setting: Use the "Daily" option for intraday trading. The previous day's high and low are critical pivot points that many day traders watch.
⚙️ Indicator Settings
The indicator has one simple setting, which you can access by clicking the gear icon ⚙️ next to its name on the chart.
Select Wick Timeframe: This dropdown menu allows you to switch the indicator's calculation between the Daily and Weekly timeframe instantly.

Timeframe:
Tested on the 5-minute chart.
Recommended timeframe: 5-minute
What it does
This indicator marks intraday Buy (green) and Sell (red) zones made by strong close-confirmed breakouts. These zones act as support/resistance. If price later closes through a zone, the zone changes color from that bar forward (support ↔ resistance). It can flip more than once.
How zones form
Single breakout: an opposite-type candle closes beyond the previous candle’s high/low.
Double breakout: a base candle, then two opposite-type candles, and the second one closes beyond the base high/low.
Zone size
Buy zone: from the combo lowest low up to the nearest open/close of the combo.
Sell zone: from the combo highest high down to the nearest open/close of the combo.
Color shift (optional)
If price closes through a zone, it flips color at that bar and behaves as the other side (support ↔ resistance). Flips can happen again later.
Overlap control
When a new zone overlaps an existing same-color zone in the same session, choose:
Merge (combine), or
Suppress (ignore the new one).
Flipped zones use their current color for this.
Right edge & session
All zones extend to the right (your offset). Detection is limited to your chosen session, and you can show only the last N sessions.

How to trade (simple)
A) Initial breakout trade
When a new zone forms, that breakout itself can be a trade idea in the breakout direction, The stoploss will be the zone.
B) Zone breakout trade (flip)
If price later closes out of a zone and it changes color, that breakout is another trade opportunity in the new direction.
C) Retrace & average trade
When price retests a zone, wait for a confirmation candle in the zone’s favor
— bullish close for a green zone, bearish close for a red zone — then average entries inside/near the zone.
Place stops just beyond the opposite edge of the zone.
If the zone flips color, stop averaging; bias changed.
