Three Anchored Moving Averages (VWAP / SMA / EMA)
This indicator allows users to anchor three types of moving averages (Simple Moving Average (SMA), Exponential Moving Average (EMA), and Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP)) to specific points in time (anchor points)
Key Features:
Select from three Moving Average Types:
Simple Moving Average (SMA): Averages the closing prices over a specified period.
Exponential Moving Average (EMA): Gives more weight to recent prices, making it more responsive to new information.
Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP): Averages the price weighted by volume, useful for understanding the average price at which the asset has traded over a period.
Up to Three Anchor Points:
Users can set up to three different anchor points to calculate the moving averages from specific dates and times. This allows for analysis of price action starting from significant points or specific events. For example, you can anchor to the low and high of a move to identify key levels or to points where the price takes off from a previous anchored MA.
Customisable Sentiment Options:
Each anchor point can be associated with a sentiment input (Auto, Bull, Bear, None), which influences if the MAs are displayed as lines or zones/bands:
Auto: Automatically determines the sentiment based on whether anchor points are on pivot highs and lows. If anchored to a pivot high, the system will assume a bearish sentiment and display a red band or zone between the MA OHLC4 and High. Anchoring to a pivot low will display a green band (OHLC4 - Low).
Bull: Forces a bullish sentiment (Green Band - OHLC4 to Low)
Bear: Forces a bearish sentiment (Red Band - OHLC4 to High)
None: Ignores sentiment and displays a single line (OHLC4)
Chart Matching:
The indicator includes an option to display the moving averages only if the chart symbol matches a specified ticker. This feature ensures that the indicator is relevant to the specific asset being analysed.
How to Use the Indicator:
1. Set Anchor Points: When added to your chart, select three anchor points by point and click. If you only wish to anchor to a single point, click on that point three times and disable the other two in settings once the indicator is applied.
2. Select Moving Average Type: Choose between SMA, EMA, or VWAP using the dropdown menu. EMAs are the most responsive.
3. Enable/Disable Anchor Points: Use the checkboxes to enable or disable each anchor point.
4. Select Sentiment Type: Choose between Auto, Bull, Bear, or None.
5. Chart Matching: Optionally, specify a chart symbol to restrict the indicator's display to that particular asset.
6. Interpret the Plots: The indicator plots the high, mid, and low values of the selected moving average type from each anchor point. The fills between these plots help identify potential support and resistance zones. These should be used as points of interest for pullback reversals or potential continuation if the price breaks through.
Practical Applications:
Trend Analysis: Identify the overall trend direction from specific historical points.
Support and Resistance: Determine key dynamic support and resistance levels based on anchored moving averages.
Event-Based Analysis: Anchor the moving averages to significant events (e.g., earnings releases, economic data) to study their impact on price trends.
Multi Timeframe Analysis: Higher Timeframe Anchors can be used to identify longer term trend analysis. Switching to a lower timeframe for execution triggers at these points wont distort the MA levels as they are anchored to a specific point in time
Intraday or Swing Trading: trend analysis using anchor points can be used for any style of trading (Intraday / Swing / Invest). Use anchored levels as points of interest and wait for hints in price action to try and catch the next move.

Anchored Chandelier ExitThe Chandelier Exit is a popular tool among traders used to help determine appropriate stop loss levels. Originally developed by Chuck LeBeau, the Chandelier Exit takes into account market volatility and adjusts the stop loss level dynamically. This indicator builds upon the original Chandelier Exit by allowing the trader to select an anchor date or starting point for the indicator to begin calculating from.
The Original Chandelier Exit
Before we get into the details of the Anchored Chandelier Exit, let's review the original. Essentially a dynamic ATR stop loss, the Chandelier Exit provides a trailing stop that moves higher or lower based on volatility.
The Chandelier Exit is calculated based on the following criteria:
🔶ATR - The ATR is used to measure the volatility of a security over a lookback period. The ATR length determines the number of bars to consider when calculating the average true range. The shorter the length, the more responsive the level will be.
🔶ATR Multiplier - The default multiplier is set to 3. This is used to determine the sensitivity of the Chandelier Exit. The higher the ATR multiplier the wider the stop levels will be. A lower multiplier will tighten stop levels.
🔶Highest / Lowest Points - Determine the highest high (bullish trade) or lowest low (bearish trade) during the lookback period. The default length is 22 bars.
Calculating the Chandelier Exit
Bullish trades - Highest High - ATR * Multiplier
Bearish trades - Lowest Low + ATR * Multiplier
The Anchored Chandelier Exit
The Anchored Chandelier Exit is a new twist on the original, allowing traders to adapt their stop loss levels based on specific market events, levels or bars.
Similar to the original, traders can select the ATR length and multiplier, however, the high or low from which the ATR is subtracted or added is first determined at the anchor bar.
As new bars form, the indicator checks for the previous high/low to be breached. If the high or low is exceeded, the highest/lowest point is updated and the Chandelier Exit is recalculated.
When the indicator is first loaded to your chart, it will ask you to select an anchor bar and choose the bias for the trade.
A bullish (long) bias trade will plot the Chandelier Exit below price action, while a bearish (short) bias trade will plot the Chandelier Exit above price action.

Anchored Relative StrengthThe Anchored Relative Strength (RS) Indicator is a tool designed for traders to compare the performance of a selected stock or security against a benchmark index or another security starting from a specific point in time.
Traditional Relative Strength
The traditional RS line is a popular tool used to compare the performance of a stock, typically calculated as the ratio of the stock's price to a benchmark index's price. It helps identify outperformers and underperformers relative to the market or a specific sector.
The Anchored Approach
The Anchored RS line enhances the traditional concept of the RS line by introducing an anchored approach, where calculations begin from a user-defined date. This feature provides the flexibility to start the comparison from a specific historical event, earnings, market peak, trough, or any date significant to the trader's analysis.
Calculating Relative Strength
The RS value is calculated by dividing the close price of the chosen stock by the close price of the comparative symbol (SPX by default). This calculation is performed for each bar since the Anchor Date.

Supply and Demand Anchored [LuxAlgo]The Supply and Demand Anchored indicator is an anchored version of the popular Supply and Demand Visible Range indicator. Once adding the indicator to the chart, users need to manually select the starting and ending points for the indicator's calculation. The estimated supply/demand zones are then extended.
🔶 USAGE
The proposed indicator makes use of the same method highlighted in previous posts (see related scripts section below) to estimate supply and demand zones.
When adding the indicator to the chart, users will be prompted to select a starting and ending point for the calculation of the supply and demand zones, click on your chart to select those points.
Once calculated, each zone/level will be extended to the right of the chart. These can be used as support/resistance zones. Clicking on one of the graphical elements of the indicator or the indicator title will highlight the starting and ending calculation points, these can be dragged to be set at different locations.
🔶 SETTINGS
Threshold %: Percentage of the total visible range volume used as a threshold to set supply/demand areas. Higher values return wider areas.
Resolution: Determines the number of bins used to find each area. Higher values will return more precise results.
Intra-bar TF: Timeframe used to obtain intra-bar data.

Anchored VWAP Pinch & Handoff, Intervals, and Signals"Anchored VWAP Pinch & Handoff, Intervals, and Signals" is an AVWAP toolbox for those who like to use various VWAP trading techniques. The indicator is currently comprised of the following three sections:
• The Pinch & Handoff section (shown above on chart) allows manually setting an upper and lower AVWAP (Pinch) along with an additional AVWAP (Handoff) by entering dates or by dragging the vertical anchor lines to the desired significant events on chart. Each of these three AVWAPs can also be set to show zones above and/or below by a percentage or standard deviation amount. The theory behind this method is that the upper and lower AVWAPs may act as dynamic support and resistance levels, effectively creating a price range or channel. As price moves between these two VWAP levels, it becomes squeezed or consolidated within that range. Further conjecture is that the longer the price remains within the range of the two anchored VWAP values, the higher the potential for an explosive breakout. Traders using this strategy may interpret the prolonged consolidation as a period of price compression, with the expectation that a significant move in either direction is likely to occur. Traders employing the AVWAP Pinch strategy might look for specific chart patterns or additional confirmation signals to enter a trade. For example, a breakout above the upper anchored VWAP level could trigger a long trade, while a breakdown below the lower anchored VWAP level could signal a short trade. Stop-loss orders and profit targets are typically set based on the trader's risk tolerance and the volatility of the asset. The third AVWAP (Handoff) is typically set after price has broken through the Pinch, and is used as a new level of support or resistance. The "Pinch & Handoff" phrase is believed to have been coined by Brian Shannon, who has popularized this method.
• The Intervals section (shown above on chart) is comprised of six periodic AVWAPs which cyclically reset. Their default settings are 1 Day, 2 Days, 1 Week, 1 Month, 1 Quarter, and 1 Year. They each may be set to desired period and when they are enabled the VWAPs whose periods are lower than the current chart timeframe are automatically hidden. For example a 1 Day AVWAP is not useful on a 1 Week chart so it would be hidden from that timeframe. When using AVWAPs from higher timeframes it may be helpful to set your chart to "Scale price chart only". This can be enabled by right clicking on your chart's price column and then left clicking "Scale price chart only" to enable that option.
• The Auto section (shown above on chart) is comprised of two automatic Anchored VWAPs. There are choices for setting anchors automatically based upon Highest Source, Highest Volume, Lowest Source, Lowest Volume, Pivot High, and Pivot Low. Because these two VWAPs work retroactively they are drawn with lines instead of plots. There is currently a limitation of 500 lines that may be drawn at any given time and the logic within this indicator uses a line for every bar of VWAP that is drawn, so if the combined length of both of these VWAPs exceeds 500 bars the earliest lines would disappear. For typical use of looking for the highest high in the last 50 bars or the last fractal this limitation should not be an issue.

All of the plots have been titled including hidden plots that are generated for the AVWAP line drawings. All of the various types of AVWAP within the indicator should be available as choices within the Alert creation dialog if use of alerts is desired.

All-In-One Auto Anchored VWAPsA chart isn't trendy without a VWAP (which stands for volume weighted average price).
This indicator allows you to choose 3 different anchored VWAPs, and customize the anchor period from one of many different options, including:
- Daily
- Weekly
- Monthly
- Quarterly
- Yearly
- All Time
- Specific Pivots
- Specific Sessions
You can then choose whether you want to anchor to the open, highest or lowest value within that period.
The indicator will automatically update every time a new anchor point is triggered. Every VWAP has colors and standard deviation bands as an optional setting.
As interest in the script grows I will continue to add new features.
Click VWAP Anchored with Standard Devation BandsSimply use it by clicking on your chart on the places you find important to determine whether you entries or exits look strong or weak.
Anchored VWAP BandSimple script to anchor vwap to a drag and drop spot on the chart and display it as a band instead of a line.
the AVAP Band displays:
1. The AVWAP using High as the source
2. The AVWAP using OHLC4 as the source
3. The AVWAP using Low as the source
This is just a different way of visualising VWAP from an anchored point in time (Band vs Line)
Multiple Non-Anchored VWAPA lot of VWAP scripts are anchored and only allow single VWAP additions. This script allows up to 5 simultaneous VWAPs, for example monthly, quarterly, yearly, 3 years, etc. Can also be used on smaller timeframes. The non-anchored part of the script allows it to be constantly rolling, with no resets.
I do not endorse this script, it was created at my request :)
Time Anchored Intraday High/Low TrendlineOftentimes, intraday trendlines that are started at specific times, e.g. 8:00am or market open 9:30am, are well respected throughout the trading day.
This indicator draws up tp 3 intraday trendlines that are anchored at user defined times, respectively at the corresponding candle's high and low points.
From there, the line*s xy2 are connected in a way that all following candles are enclosed.
Automated Anchored VWAPThis was reasonably easy to put together and I can't find one that does this in the Library and I've been wanting one. Of course, the drawing tool is just fantastic, but sometimes it can be forgotten as new pivots emerge.
What you'll find elsewhere in the Library is a nice variety of fancier methods for determining an anchor point with labels, lines, timestamps and standard deviations.
This is just a simple script to pull the Anchored VWAP off of the most recent pivot and update that as new pivots become defined.
I wanted it to be really portable so it could easily work into other things you're working on while also keeping the chart reasonably clean.
The way this functions is as follows: A new pivot is found and VWAP is calculated from it. At that point the prior aVWAP is no longer tracked and it picks up from the new pivot .
Of course this means that the plot doesn't generate until the pivot is actually confirmed, which in turn means that the plot doesn't reach back to the pivot , it begins based on whatever "right bars" period you end up choosing.
I kind of like it that way, because you have your eyes on the one that matters until the new one matters.
The downside is that it doesn't track old pivots . The old aVWAP might still be in play. But if you track all of the old one's you'll have a 100 lines on your chart and no one wants that.
I recommend when you look back and think the old one is still in play, use the drawing tool to keep it on the chart.
Otherwise, let the script do the work for you.
Hope its helpful. Let me know what you think should be done to make it better.

Anchored BTCIntroduce
When looking at altcoins and bitcoins together and seeing coupling and decoupling, we add a bitcoin chart in the "Compare" tab.
We checked where the coupling occurs in "Auto" mode, but if we move the chart, the overlapped position will change.
So I created the “Anchored BTC” indicator, which made the Bitcoin chart immovable.
How to use
First, add a bitcoin chart in the "Compare" tab and compare it with the altcoin chart.
And add the "Correlation Coefficient" built-in indicator to find the part where the correlation coefficient is 0.8 or higher.(it means finding well coupled part)
Among them, set the swing high or swing low part to Time1 and Time2.
Check if it looks the same as the existing BTC chart and you are done.
소개
알트코인과 비트코인을 함께 보며 커플링과 디커플링을 볼 때 우리는 비교 탭에서 비트코인 차트를 추가하여 봅니다.
"오토" 모드로 어느 부분에서 커플링이 일어나는지 체크했는데 차트를 옮기면 겹쳐놓아졌던 위치가 달라지게됩니다.
그래서 "Anchored BTC" 지표를 만들어, 비트코인 차트가 움직이지 못하게 만들었습니다.
사용법
우선 비교탭에서 비트코인차트를 추가하여 알트코인 차트와 비교해봅니다.
그리고 "상관계수" 빌트인 지표를 추가하여 상관계수가 0.8이상인 부분을 찾습니다.(커플링한 부분을 찾는겁니다)
이 중에서 스윙하이나 스윙로우인 부분을 Time1, Time2로 맞춰줍니다.
기존의 BTC차트와 동일하게 보여지는지 확인하면 끝납니다.
Anchored VWAP ClickIt calculates AVWAP set from a mouse click on a chart instead of having to edit a popup box, manually transferring date and time from the chart.
It's the Oct 2021 sample script from Tradingview to demonstrate their new chart interactive capabilities of Pine script.
www.tradingview.com
I take no credit for this, just noticed it wasn't in the Public Library.
This ability to accept OnMouse positional data from the chart, into an indicator has been needed in TV for a long time.
Glad to see they continue to grow the capabilities.
Auto Anchored Volume Weighted Average Price - Custom AVWAP
Based on Brian Shannon's AVWAP - This indicator anchors vwap to the highest high, lowest low and highest volume bar of a user defined lookback period.
In the chart example above on AVAX, the lookback period is set to 90 days
- The blue line depicts AVWAP from the highest bar in in the last 90 dats
- The purple Line is AVWAP from the lowest bar in the last 90 days
- The golden line is AVWAP from the highest volume bar in the last 90 Days
These levels act as a price magnet and strong levels of support and resistance. I use them to identify chart locations for where I want to do business and look for trade setups.
Unlike moving averages, AVWAP will maintain it's chart position no matter the chart resolution. One way to take advantage of this is to wait for price to get to one of these levels, go to lower timeframes and find low risk setups based on your trading strategy.
You can customise the look and feel and which anchors you want displayed. You can use multiple instances with varying lookback periods to display shorter and longer term levels simultaneously
Nic's Anchored VWAP 4Poor mans anchored vwap. Allows you to identified the volume weighted average price from 4 specific points in time.
Best used on key pivot point high's and lows'
VWAP Bands - MultiTF and anchoredThe script has traditional VWAP for two different timeframes along with an option to anchor them to a particular bar. VWAP bands are also included in the script. The bands and VWAP act as hidden support/resistance for the scrip and are useful for intraday trading.
