Step Channel Momentum Trend [ChartPrime]OVERVIEW
Step Channel Momentum Trend is a momentum-based price filtering system that adapts to market structure using pivot levels and ATR volatility. It builds a dynamic channel around a stepwise midline derived from swing highs and lows. The system colors price candles based on whether price remains inside this channel (low momentum) or breaks out (strong directional flow). This allows traders to clearly distinguish ranging conditions from trending ones and take action accordingly.
⯁ STRUCTURAL MIDLNE (STEP CHANNEL CORE)
The midline acts as the backbone of the trend system and is based on structure rather than smoothing.
Calculated as the average of the most recent confirmed Pivot High and Pivot Low.
The result is a step-like horizontal line that only updates when new pivot points are confirmed.
This design avoids lag and makes the line "snap" to recent structural shifts.
It reflects the equilibrium level between recent bullish and bearish control.
This unique step logic creates clear regime shifts and prevents noise from distorting trend interpretation.
⯁ DYNAMIC VOLATILITY BANDS (ATR FILTERING)
To detect momentum strength, the script constructs upper and lower bands using the ATR (Average True Range):
The distance from the midline is determined by ATR × multiplier (default: 200-period ATR × 0.6).
These bands adjust dynamically to volatility, expanding in high-ATR environments and contracting in calm markets.
The area between upper and lower bands represents a neutral or ranging market state.
Breakouts outside the bands are treated as significant momentum shifts.
This filtering approach ensures that only meaningful breakouts are visually emphasized — not every candle fluctuation.
⯁ MOMENTUM-BASED CANDLE COLORING
The system visually transforms price candles into momentum indicators:
When price (hl2) is above the upper band, candles are green → bullish momentum.
When price is below the lower band, candles are red → bearish momentum.
When price is between the bands, candles are orange → low or no momentum (range).
The candle body, wick, and border are all colored uniformly for visual clarity.
This gives traders instant feedback on when momentum is expanding or fading — ideal for breakout, pullback, or trend-following strategies.
⯁ PIVOT-BASED SWING ANCHORS
Each confirmed pivot is plotted as a label ⬥ directly on the chart:
They also serve as potential manual entry zones, SL/TP anchors, or confirmation points.
⯁ MOMENTUM STATE LABEL
To reinforce the current market mode, a live label is displayed at the most recent candle:
Displays either:
“ Momentum Up ” when price breaks above the upper band.
“ Momentum Down ” when price breaks below the lower band.
“ Range ” when price remains between the bands.
Label color matches the candle color for quick identification.
Automatically updates on each bar close.
This helps discretionary traders filter trades based on market phase.
USAGE
Use the green/red zones to enter with momentum and ride trending moves.
Use the orange zone to stay out or fade ranges.
The step midline can act as a breakout base, pullback anchor, or bias reference.
Combine with other indicators (e.g., order blocks, divergences, or volume) to build high-confluence systems.
CONCLUSION
Step Channel Momentum Trend gives traders a clean, adaptive framework for identifying trend direction, volatility-based breakouts, and ranging environments — all from structural logic and ATR responsiveness. Its stepwise midline provides clarity, while its dynamic color-coded candles make momentum shifts impossible to miss. Whether you’re scalping intraday momentum or managing swing entries, this tool helps you trade with the market’s rhythm — not against it.
Grafik Formasyonları
Rolling VWAP Channel [LuxAlgo]The Rolling VWAP Channel indicator creates a channel by analyzing a large number of Volume Weighted Average Prices (VWAPs) and determining a Channel based on percentile linear interpolation throughout the VWAPs.
🔶 USAGE
In this indicator, we have formed a Channel by first calculating multiple VWAPs, each with their respective anchor, then locating prices using "Percentile Linear Interpolation".
Note: Percentile Linear Interpolation locates the price point at which a specified percentage of VWAPs fall below it.
For example, a percentile of 50% would mean that 50% of the VWAP values fall below this price.
This method of analysis is important since the VWAPs are not often evenly distributed; therefore, we are able to draw importance to different levels by analyzing in percentiles.
When visualized, there is typically clustering of the VWAP values, which occurs at any given time, as seen below.
The channel can be tailored to each individual, with full control of each percentile represented in the channel. That being said, a general concept is that these clustered areas are clear results of sideways price action, which would lead us to believe that after interactions at these levels, we should expect to see a directional decision made by the market closely after.
🔶 DETAILS
The Rolling VWAP calculation calculates a user-specified number of VWAPs (up to 500), each anchored to a unique starting point in the chart based on the start of a new timeframe.
Each new timeframe that occurs causes a new VWAP to initialize. When the total number of desired VWAPs is reached, the oldest VWAP is removed and re-initialized, anchored to the current bar. Hence, the name " Rolling " VWAPs
This method allows us to automatically generate and manage large amounts of VWAPs without the need for user interaction.
After we have generated these VWAPs, we are able to run analyses on their returned values, such as the "Percentile Linear Interpolation" mentioned in the section above.
🔶 SETTINGS
Anchor Period: Choose which time period to use as the anchor point to initialize new VWAPs from.
VWAP Source: Choose the source for your VWAPs to calculate.
VWAP Amount: Sets the number of VWAPs to use. After this amount is on the chart, the oldest will be rolled.
🔹 Channel Lines
Toggle: Enable the associated VWAP Channel percentile line.
Percentile: Adjust each line's percentile independently for your needs.
Width: Adjust the width of the associated percentile line.
🔹 Calculation
Calculated Bars: Tells the indicator how many bars to calculate on, for faster calculations with less history, use a lower value. Setting this to 0 will remove the bar constraint.

Triangle Asc/Descending Patterns [Drobode]█ DESCRIPTION
The script automatically tracks the descending or ascending triangle pattern. The script provides advanced settings, allowing you to adjust the pattern accuracy from high to low depending on your needs and technical analysis style. The main goal of the script is to facilitate the routine work of a trader in identifying certain trading situations (patterns). However, you should understand that the script is not a full-fledged self-sufficient strategy, in case of receiving a signal, it is recommended that you additionally conduct a comprehensive thorough analysis before taking trading actions. The script can be useful for traders of all levels, both beginners and experienced analysts. This variation of the script, in case of identifying a pattern, draws a contour triangle with the background color of the figure. The ascending triangle has a blue color, the descending triangle has a red color. The logic of the script provides that one of the legs (one side) of the triangle is always a horizontal line, simultaneously being a line of resistance or support, other variations of triangle patterns are not tracked. According to generally defined beliefs and observations of pattern formation, a descending and ascending triangle may indicate a possible breakdown of the conditional horizontal level to which the price of the instrument has approached, however, at the same time it is necessary to deeply analyze many other factors at this point, in particular, such as volumes, consolidation, volatility, and so on.
█ SCRIPT SETTINGS
By default, the script was pre-developed and tested on the M15 timeframe with the USDT.P crypto futures instruments.
Alert
The Alert function in the script is enabled by default, you just need to activate the Alert in the TradingView window and select the signal source - Triangle Asc/Descending Patterns .
The notification provides the following information (example):
Triangle_Ascending
Ticker- EGLDUSDT.P
Price-19.754
Timeframe- 15
Period length-160
Periods length
The script allows you to set the period length (number) of bars on which the calculation will be performed. Different periods make it possible to cover more timeframes (in particular, larger timeframes). The calculation is performed simultaneously on all periods, but you can turn off "Period length 3" and "Period length 4" by clicking on the check mark, this can speed up the script. The following period values are set by default: "Period length 1" – 80,
"Period length 2" – 160, "Period length 3" – 300, "Period length 4" – 681.
Percentage deviation of extremes
The next settings are the percentage deviation from the hypotenuse and horizontal leg, which creates the zone in which the extremes of the bars that will form the triangle shape should be. The smaller the deviation, the greater the accuracy and the closer to the hypotenuse and leg the bar extrema should be, however, in this case the number of pattern identifications will be smaller. By default, the deviation zone from the hypotenuse "Deflection zone of tangents to the hypotenuse" is - 0.4%, the deviation zone from the horizontal leg "Tangent deviation zone horizontal leg" is - 0.08%.
The presence of extrema at certain points on the sides of a triangle
The last block of settings are the conditions that increase the accuracy of the proportions of the pattern figure. These settings are aimed at confirming the presence of extrema in certain areas along the hypotenuse and horizontal leg. Thus, enabling "Extrema on the horizontal leg almost along the entire length" means that only those triangles will be tracked in which the horizontal leg zone has extrema almost along the entire length of this leg, this increases the accuracy but reduces the number of detected patterns. "Extremes present on second half of horizontal leg (more than 50%)" assumes that only those triangles will be tracked in which the extrema are present on the second half of the length of the given leg (more than 50%) in the zone of the horizontal leg. "Presence of an extrema in the middle region of the hypotenuse" assumes that only those triangles will be tracked in which the extrema are present on a certain segment of length in the central region of the hypotenuse.
Support and Resistance Power Channel [ChartPrime]The Support and Resistance Power Channel indicator helps traders visualize key support and resistance zones, along with buy and sell power within those zones. By identifying the highest and lowest prices within a defined range, this indicator provides insight into potential price reversals and market strength. It calculates the strength of buy and sell pressure within the zones and includes additional features like midline values and delayed signals to reduce false breakouts.
⯁ KEY FEATURES AND HOW TO USE
⯌ Support and Resistance Zones :
This indicator identifies dynamic support (lower zone) and resistance (upper zone) levels, allowing traders to easily visualize key price levels. These zones are customizable with settings for the length of the channel and how far the zones extend into the future. The zones can be used to predict areas of potential price reversal or consolidation.
⯌ Buy and Sell Power :
Within the upper resistance zone, the indicator calculates Sell Power based on the number of bearish candles, while the lower support zone calculates Buy Power based on bullish candles. This feature helps traders understand the strength of buying or selling activity within each zone.
Example of buy and sell power tracking:
⯌ Highest, Lowest, and Mid Price Levels :
The indicator marks the highest and lowest price levels within the channel with an "X," and displays these values at the end of the channel. Additionally, the midline (average of the high and low) is plotted with a dotted line, showing a key area that the price often retests during trends.
⯌ Delayed Signal Markers :
To prevent false breakouts, the indicator includes a 2-bar delay for signals. These signals are plotted when the price crosses above or below the resistance or support zones, confirming potential reversals or breakouts. Arrows or diamonds are used to mark these signals on the chart.
Example of delayed breakout signals on the chart:
⯌ Extend Zones into the Future :
In the settings, traders can extend the support and resistance zones further into the future, allowing for ongoing analysis even after the initial levels have been identified. This feature can help with forward-looking trade planning.
⯁ USER INPUTS
Length : Defines the number of bars used to calculate the support and resistance zones.
Extend : Sets how far the support and resistance zones should be extended into the future.
Top and Bottom Colors : Allows customization of the colors for the support and resistance zones.
⯁ CONCLUSION
The Support and Resistance Power Channel indicator provides a powerful and visually intuitive way to track key market levels, buy and sell pressure, and potential reversals. With its real-time zone plotting and the calculation of power within each zone, it offers traders essential insights for making more informed trading decisions.
Chart Patterns (PRO) [ActiveQuants]Unlock the full potential of chart pattern trading with Chart Patterns (PRO) ! This advanced indicator goes beyond basic detection, offering a comprehensive suite of tools for serious traders. Automatically identify an extensive range of reversal and continuation patterns, complete with projected price targets , visually appealing pattern fills , and a sophisticated multi-status alert system .
How It Works
The indicator employs a sophisticated multi-stage process:
Precision Pivot Detection: At its heart, the indicator identifies significant swing highs and lows (pivot points) using an optimized internal period. These pivots are the fundamental building blocks for all pattern recognition. ( Users can toggle visibility of these pivots ).
Advanced Pattern Recognition Engine: Sequences of these pivot points are meticulously analyzed against a vast library of predefined geometric conditions to identify chart patterns. This includes checks for relative pivot heights/lows, slope analysis of trendlines, and ATR-based proportionality for patterns like Head & Shoulders.
Dynamic Status Tracking & Invalidation:
- Active: A pattern's initial structure is identified (e.g., two tops of a Double Top, or the converging trendlines of a Pennant). The pattern is developing.
- Confirmed: The pattern completes, and price breaks out/down from a key level (e.g., neckline, trendline) in the expected direction. Price targets are plotted upon confirmation.
- Invalidated: If price breaks out/down in the opposite direction of what's expected for an "Active" pattern, or if a new pivot forms that structurally compromises an "Active" Double Top/Bottom or Head & Shoulders before its confirmation, the pattern is marked "Invalid".
Price Target Projection: For confirmed patterns (excluding simple HH/LL structures), the indicator automatically calculates and plots potential price targets based on common technical analysis principles (e.g., pattern height projected from the breakout point).
█ DETECTED CHART PATTERNS
Chart Patterns (PRO) identifies a comprehensive list of 20 patterns, categorized for clarity:
I. Simple Market Structures:
Lower Low (LL): Indicates bearish pressure, potentially forming part of a larger downtrend.
Lower Low & Lower High (LL & LH): Stronger confirmation of a bearish trend.
Higher High (HH): Signals bullish strength, potentially part of an uptrend.
Higher High & Higher Low (HH & HL): Stronger confirmation of a bullish trend.
II. Reversal Patterns:
These patterns typically signal a potential end of the current trend and the beginning of a new one in the opposite direction.
Double Top (DT): Bearish reversal. Two distinct peaks at similar levels.
Double Bottom (DB): Bullish reversal. Two distinct troughs at similar levels.
Head and Shoulders (H&S): Bearish reversal. A central peak (head) flanked by two smaller peaks (shoulders).
Inverse Head and Shoulders (Inv H&S): Bullish reversal. A central trough (head) flanked by two smaller troughs (shoulders).
Rising Wedge From Uptrend (RW From UT): Bearish reversal. Converging trendlines with an upward slant during an uptrend.
Falling Wedge From Downtrend (FW From DT): Bullish reversal. Converging trendlines with a downward slant during a downtrend.
Bearish Ascending Triangle (Reversal): Bearish reversal. A horizontal resistance line with rising support, typically occurring after a downtrend.
Bullish Descending Triangle (Reversal): Bullish reversal. A horizontal support line with falling resistance, typically occurring after an uptrend.
III. Continuation Patterns:
These patterns typically suggest a temporary pause in the prevailing trend, after which the trend is likely to resume.
Rising Wedge From Downtrend (RW From DT): Bearish continuation. An upward-slanted consolidation during a downtrend.
Falling Wedge From Uptrend (FW From UT): Bullish continuation. A downward-slanted consolidation during an uptrend.
Bearish Pennant: Bearish continuation. A small symmetrical triangle (converging trendlines) after a sharp downward move.
Bullish Pennant: Bullish continuation. A small symmetrical triangle (converging trendlines) after a sharp upward move.
Bearish Flag: Bearish continuation. A short, rectangular consolidation (parallel trendlines, often upward sloping) after a sharp downward move.
Bullish Flag: Bullish continuation. A short, rectangular consolidation (parallel trendlines, often downward sloping) after a sharp upward move.
Bearish Descending Triangle: Bearish continuation. Horizontal support and a descending resistance line during a downtrend.
Bullish Ascending Triangle: Bullish continuation. Horizontal resistance and an ascending support line during an uptrend.
█ KEY FEATURES
- Automatic Price Target Projection:
Once a pattern is "Confirmed," a price target is automatically plotted on the chart.
Targets are calculated based on established technical methods, typically measuring the height of the pattern and projecting it from the breakout point.
Includes a label displaying the target price level. Toggle with Show Price Targets .
- Advanced Multi-Status Alerts:
Never miss an opportunity with highly configurable alerts.
Receive notifications when a pattern is:
- Developing (Active): Get an early heads-up.
- Confirmed: Act on breakout signals.
- Invalidated: Re-assess your strategy quickly.
Alerts automatically include the pattern type and its status (e.g., "Double Top - Confirmed ✅").
Additional contextual information included by default: Ticker Symbol, Chart Timeframe, Current Price, and Projected Target Price (for confirmed patterns).
Enable/disable all alerts via the Enable Alerts setting.
- Comprehensive Pattern Validation & Invalidation:
Patterns like Wedges, Triangles, Pennants, and Flags are monitored for breakouts. A breakout in the expected direction confirms the pattern; a breakout in the opposite direction invalidates it.
Double Tops/Bottoms and Head & Shoulders have pre-confirmation invalidation logic: if a new pivot forms that compromises the pattern's structure before the neckline breaks, the pattern is marked "Invalid". This helps filter out weaker setups.
ATR is used internally for proportional checks in patterns like Head & Shoulders, ensuring more reliable formations.
- Superior Visualizations:
Pattern Fills: Wedges, Triangles, Pennants, and Flags are visually enhanced with a semi-transparent fill between their trendlines, making them easy to spot.
Clear Necklines & Trendlines: Critical lines for patterns are drawn clearly.
Distinct Labels: Each pattern receives a main label (e.g., "H&S", "BullP"). Double Tops/Bottoms and H&S also get individual component labels (Top 1/2, Shoulder 1/Head/Shoulder 2).
Customizable Colors: Set distinct colors for bullish and bearish patterns.
- Pattern Display Control:
Toggle visibility for each of the 20 individual pattern types.
Filter displayed patterns by their status: All , Active , Confirmed , or Invalid .

█ UNDERSTANDING PATTERN INVALIDATION
Trendline Patterns (Wedges, Triangles, Pennants, Flags): An "Active" pattern is invalidated if price breaks its trendlines in the direction opposite to the expected breakout before a confirmation occurs. E.g., an Active Bullish Pennant is invalidated if price breaks below its lower trendline.
Neckline Patterns (Double Tops/Bottoms, H&S): An "Active" pattern can be invalidated before a neckline break if a new pivot point forms that violates the pattern's structural integrity.
Example (Double Top): If Top 1, Neckline (P5), and Top 2 form (Active status), but before price breaks below P5, a new swing low forms at or above P5, the Double Top is invalidated. This indicates a failure to break support and potential renewed strength.
█ ALERTS GUIDE
Add the " Chart Patterns (PRO) " indicator to your chart.
Ensure Enable Alerts is checked in the indicator settings.
In TradingView, click the "Alert" icon (clock) in the right toolbar or press ALT + A .
In the "Create Alert" dialog:
- Condition: Select " Chart Patterns (PRO) ".
- For the condition dropdown below it, choose " Any alert() function call ". This will trigger for any alert generated by the script.
- Interval: Choose whatever interval you want the alert to be triggered.
- Expiration: Choose the expiration date.
Customize your alert notification preferences (popup, email, webhook, etc.) and click " Create ".
You will now receive alerts for pattern status changes (Developing, Confirmed, Invalidated) with detailed information.
█ CONCLUSION
The Chart Patterns (PRO) indicator is an indispensable tool for traders aiming to optimize their workflow. By automatically identifying and drawing classical chart patterns, it eliminates the need for manual chart analysis, thereby enabling users to dedicate substantially less time to chart monitoring. Its comprehensive detection, coupled with actionable insights like price targets and a meticulous status tracking system with alerts, provides a significant analytical edge. Automate your pattern recognition and drawing, and concentrate on making informed trading decisions with enhanced efficiency.
█ IMPORTANT NOTES
⚠ Confirmation is Crucial: While "Active" patterns provide early warnings, always await "Confirmed" status (e.g., neckline/trendline breaks) and consider volume and broader market context.
⚠ Non-Repainting Logic: Pattern detection and status updates are based on confirmed price bars and pivot points. Once a pattern is fully formed and its status set (Active, Confirmed, Invalid), it will not repaint its historical state. Initial drawing of "Active" patterns extends to the current bar and updates dynamically.
⚠ Combine with Other Tools: No indicator is a standalone solution. Use Chart Patterns (PRO) in conjunction with other forms of analysis (e.g., fundamental analysis, other indicators, volume analysis) and robust risk management .
⚠ Historical Data: Ensure sufficient historical data on your chart for patterns to form and be detected accurately. The Show Last History (Bars) setting can manage this.
⚠ Lagging Nature: By their very definition, chart patterns are lagging indicators as they require a sequence of price action and several pivot points to complete their formation.
█ RISK DISCLAIMER
Trading involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. The Chart Patterns (PRO) indicator and its generated information are for educational and informational purposes only. It does not constitute financial advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any security. Chart patterns and projected targets indicate potential price movements based on historical tendencies but do not guarantee future results. Always conduct your own due diligence, consider multiple factors, and consult with a qualified financial advisor before making investment decisions. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
📈 Happy trading! 🚀
Chart Patterns [ActiveQuants]The Chart Patterns indicator is a comprehensive tool designed to automatically identify a variety of common chart patterns directly on your price chart. By detecting sequences of pivot highs and lows , this indicator helps traders spot potential trend continuations , reversals , and key market structures such as Double Tops and Double Bottoms . Enhance your technical analysis by quickly recognizing these formations as they emerge.
How It Works
The indicator operates in a two-stage process:
Pivot Point Detection: It first identifies significant swing highs and swing lows (pivot points) based on a user-defined Period . These pivots form the fundamental building blocks for pattern recognition.
Pattern Recognition: Using the sequence of these detected pivot points, the script then applies logical rules to identify the following patterns:
Lower Low (LL)
Lower Low & Lower High (LL & LH)
Higher High (HH)
Higher High & Higher Low (HH & HL)
Double Tops
Double Bottoms
Patterns are drawn on the chart with connecting lines and labeled for easy identification. Double Tops and Double Bottoms also feature a status system: " Active " while forming, " Confirmed " upon neckline breakout, or " Invalid " if specific conditions negate the pattern before confirmation.
█ KEY FEATURES
Comprehensive Pattern Detection: Identifies six distinct types of chart patterns, offering insights into both trend continuation and potential reversals.
Pivot-Based Analysis: Uses a robust method of identifying pivot highs and lows as the foundation for pattern formation.
Pattern Status for Double Tops/Bottoms:
- Active: A Double Top or Double Bottom pattern has formed its two peaks/troughs and the intervening neckline point, but the price has not yet broken beyond the neckline. The pattern is developing .
- Confirmed: The price has decisively closed beyond the neckline (below for Double Top, above for Double Bottom), signaling a potential entry or validation of the pattern.
- Invalid: An " Active " Double Top or Double Bottom pattern can be invalidated if, before a neckline breakout occurs, a new pivot point forms that negates the pattern’s structural integrity. For example, if a new pivot low forms above or at the neckline of an Active Double Top, the pattern is considered invalid because the market failed to break down and instead showed relative strength.
Customizable Visuals: Allows users to define colors for bullish and bearish patterns, line widths, and the visibility of pivot points.
Selective Pattern Display: Users can choose to display all patterns or filter by status (Active, Confirmed, Invalid) for Double Tops/Bottoms. Individual pattern types can also be toggled on or off.
Historical Analysis Control: The Show Last History (Bars) input allows users to specify how far back the indicator should plot patterns, optimizing performance and chart readability.
Clear Labeling: Patterns are clearly labeled on the chart, with Double Tops/Bottoms also showing " Top 1 ," " Top 2 ," or " Bottom 1 ," " Bottom 2 " labels.
█ PATTERNS DETECTED
Lower Low (LL): Indicates a potential bearish continuation or the start of a downtrend. Forms when price makes a lower low during an uptrend.
Lower Low & Lower High (LL & LH): A stronger confirmation of a bearish trend, where the market forms a lower low followed by a lower high .
Higher High (HH): Signals a potential bullish continuation or the start of an uptrend. Forms when price makes a higher high during a downtrend.
Higher High & Higher Low (HH & HL): A stronger confirmation of a bullish trend, where the market forms a higher high followed by a higher low .
Double Top: A bearish reversal pattern characterized by two distinct peaks at roughly the same price level, separated by a trough (neckline). Confirmation occurs when price breaks below the neckline.
Double Bottom: A bullish reversal pattern featuring two distinct troughs at roughly the same price level, separated by a peak (neckline). Confirmation occurs when price breaks above the neckline.
█ EXAMPLE: DOUBLE TOP INVALIDATION
Understanding how a Double Top or Double Bottom can be invalidated is crucial. Here's an example for a Double Top:
Formation: The indicator identifies two peaks (Top 1, Top 2) at a similar price level, with a corrective trough (Neckline Pivot P5) in between. The pattern is labeled " Double Top " and is in an " Active " state. ( Imagine points P4 and P6 are the two tops, and P5 is the low point of the neckline between them ).
Pre-Breakout Condition: The price action continues, but before it breaks decisively below the P5 neckline level, a new significant swing low (a new pivot low) forms.
Invalidation Check: The indicator checks the price level of this new pivot low. If this new pivot low occurs at a price equal to or higher than the P5 neckline level, the " Active " Double Top pattern is re-labeled as " Invalid Double Top ". ( See image below for a visual representation of this scenario )
In this example, the Double Top formed with Top 1 (P4) and Top 2 (P6). The neckline is at P5. Before price broke below P5, a new pivot low formed at the red circle. Since this new pivot low is above the P5 neckline, the Double Top is marked " Invalid ".
The logic is that the market failed to break the neckline support and instead established a higher low (or a low at the support level), suggesting that the immediate bearish pressure has waned, thus invalidating the bearish reversal implication of the Double Top before it could confirm. A similar logic applies to Double Bottoms (a new pivot high forming below or at the neckline before an upside breakout).

█ CONCLUSION
The Chart Patterns indicator is a versatile and powerful assistant for traders who utilize classical chart pattern analysis. By automating the detection of key formations and providing clear visual cues along with status updates for patterns like Double Tops and Bottoms, it allows traders to focus on strategy development and execution. With its customizable settings, it can be adapted to various instruments and timeframes, making it a valuable addition to any technical trader's toolkit.
█ IMPORTANT NOTES
⚠ Pivot Period Sensitivity: The Period setting for pivot detection is crucial. A shorter period will identify more frequent, smaller swings, while a longer period will focus on more significant turning points. Adjust this setting based on the asset's volatility, the timeframe you are trading and your trading style.
⚠ Confirmation is Key: While the indicator identifies patterns, always wait for pattern confirmation (e.g., neckline breaks for Double Tops/Bottoms) and consider other factors like volume and market context before making trading decisions.
⚠ Confirmed Bars for Detection: Patterns are identified based on confirmed pivot points, which means a pivot is recognized period bars after it has formed. Status updates for Double Tops/Bottoms (Active, Confirmed, Invalid) also occur on confirmed bars. This approach enhances reliability and reduces the likelihood of repainting based on intra-bar price fluctuations.
⚠ Not a Standalone System: Chart patterns provide valuable insights, but they should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools (e.g., trendlines, moving averages, oscillators) and a sound risk management plan.
⚠ Lagging Nature: By their very definition, chart patterns are lagging indicators as they require a sequence of price action and several pivot points to complete their formation.

NR4 & NR7 with Breakouts [LuxAlgo]NR4 & NR7 with Breakouts is a simple indicator that utilizes the NR4 and NR7 candle patterns to display candle ranges and signals from range breakouts.
🔶 USAGE
The Narrow Range Patterns are candle formations determined by the last candle having a narrower (high-low) range than the previous number. This indicator showcases the 2 most recognized Narrow Range Patterns, which are the 4 and 7 bar variants (NR4 and NR7).
These patterns, introduced by Toby Crabel, are thought to provide insight for potential market breakouts by identifying periods of low volatility indicated by a candle with a small range. This is due to the idea that markets often move from periods of low volatility (contraction) to high volatility (expansion), and the NR4 and NR7 patterns help spot these transitions.
By utilizing these patterns, traders are better able to anticipate and respond to market shifts for better decision-making and risk management.
NOTE: These patterns have traditionally been studied on the Daily Timeframe Chart. This indicator allows the user to select a timeframe to generate these patterns from. It is suggested to be mindful of this when considering these patterns.
In this indicator, on the bar after the pattern is detected, the Narrow Range Bar will be highlighted with a zone, and lines displaying the range will extend from it. These ranges are helpful for providing levels to set limit orders and for managing risk.
Users are able to adjust which pattern they want visualized on their chart, please note;
All NR7s are NR4s but not all NR4s are NR7s.
Because of this, you will notice that when selecting "NR4" to display, the colors will change, but the detected ranges will not change.
🔹 Signals
When a Narrow Range Bar is detected, the script will wait for the price to close outside of the Range, then a signal will fire indicating the direction of exit. The signals are produced from the last NR4 or NR7 and will have the potential to fire from that range until a new NR4 or NR7 is detected.
After a signal fires, the logic goes into a "reset" period where it will wait for the price to reach the Range Mean before firing another signal.
These signals can be anticipated by considering the underlying logic and watching price approach the range extremities, and can be improved by utilizing other market information for confluence.
🔶 SETTINGS
Timeframe: Choose which timeframe to identify the NR4 and NR7 Pattern on. This must be Higher than the chart timeframe.
Pattern Type: Choose which (or all) patterns to display.
Breakout Patterns Detector: Triangle & Wedge [Splirus]This indicator identifies Breakout Patterns such as Ascending Triangles , Descending Triangles , Symmetric Triangles , Ascending Wedges , and Descending Wedges , using candlestick charts and Trendlines. It provides visual cues, stop-loss (SL), and take-profit (TP) levels, alongside a detailed dashboard to evaluate performance. The indicator supports two alert modes: Manual Mode for trader notifications and Bot Mode for automated trading signals.
To achieve optimal results, users are encouraged to experiment with indicator parameters and analyze the dashboard summary to find the perfect configuration for each timeframe, pair, and market condition.
Pattern Identification
The indicator detects the following breakout patterns based on pivot highs and lows:
Ascending Triangle : Flat upper trendline, rising lower trendline.
Descending Triangle : Flat lower trendline, declining upper trendline.
Symmetric Triangle : Converging trendlines with similar slopes (within a user-defined threshold).
Ascending Wedge : Both trendlines slope upward, converging.
Descending Wedge : Both trendlines slope downward, converging.
Patterns are identified using configurable left and right bars for small and big patterns, with slope thresholds normalized by ATR. A trend confirmation filter ensures breakouts align with market direction, and users can adjust breakout confirmation bars to validate signals.
The goal is to fine-tune these settings to suit specific timeframes and pairs, as each combination may require a unique setup for optimal performance.
Stop-Loss Calculation
Stop-loss levels are calculated dynamically based on pattern type and breakout direction:
Symmetric Triangle : SL is set at the first pivot of the opposite trendline, adjusted by a buffer percentage.
Ascending/Descending Triangle : SL is placed at the breakout trendline’s price, plus the buffer.
Ascending/Descending Wedge : SL is set at the second pivot of the opposite trendline, adjusted by the buffer.
The indicator calculates leverage based on a user-defined risk tolerance percentage. Users should adjust the SL buffer and risk tolerance to balance risk and reward, monitoring the dashboard to assess how these settings impact performance across different timeframes and pairs.
Take-Profit Calculation
Three take-profit levels ( TP1 , TP2 , TP3 ) are calculated using pattern height and user-defined multipliers:
For Ascending/Descending Triangles, height is the difference between the max and min prices within the pattern.
For Symmetric Triangles and Wedges, height is the vertical distance between trendlines at the pattern’s start.
TP levels are set as:
TP1 = Breakout price ± (Height × TP1 Multiplier).
TP2 = Breakout price ± (Height × TP2 Multiplier).
TP3 = Breakout price ± (Height × TP3 Multiplier, with a 1.5x adjustment for Wedges).
Experiment with TP multipliers to optimize the risk-reward ratio, using the dashboard to evaluate TP hit rates and overall profitability for each configuration.
Symmetric Triangle:
Ascending/Descending Wedge:
Ascending/Descending Triangles:
Finding the Perfect Configuration
The indicator’s dashboard provides a comprehensive summary of performance metrics, including total trades, TP1/TP2/TP3 hits, SL hits, profit/loss percentages, and win rates for bullish, bearish, and combined trades. These metrics are crucial for identifying the ideal parameter settings:
Timeframe and Pair Variability : Each timeframe (e.g., 15m, 30min, 1H, 4H, Daily) and pair (e.g., BTC/USD, EUR/USD) behaves differently. Adjust parameters like left/right bars, minimum pattern length, and breakout confirmation bars to match the volatility and trend characteristics of the chosen pair and timeframe.
Parameter Tuning : Modify slope thresholds, trend confirmation filters, and bars inside the pattern to filter out false breakouts. For example, a higher breakout confirmation bar setting may reduce signals but increase reliability on longer timeframes.
Dashboard Analysis : Focus on the dashboard’s win rate, profit/loss ratio, and TP/SL hit frequencies. A “Perfect” win rate (>66%) or high TP hit rate indicates a strong configuration. If the SL hit rate is high, consider tightening the trend confirmation filter or increasing the SL buffer.
Iterative Testing : Test different combinations of settings (e.g., small vs. big patterns, aggressive vs. conservative breakout confirmation) and compare dashboard results over time. The goal is to find a balance where the indicator consistently delivers high win rates and profitability for your specific trading setup.
Alert Modes
The indicator supports two alert modes to suit different trading styles:
Manual Mode : Generates alerts for breakouts with entry price, SL, TP1/TP2/TP3, and leverage, tailored for Crypto or Forex markets. Use this mode to manually evaluate signals while refining configurations.
Bot Mode : Sends automated trading signals. To avoid conflicts, Bot Mode ensures no short position alert is triggered while a long position is active, and vice versa. This mode is ideal once you’ve identified an optimal configuration via the dashboard.
Additional Features
Historical Patterns : Displays past trendlines with customizable transparency and extension, helping users analyze how patterns performed under different settings.
Customizable Settings : Adjust pattern size, breakout confirmation, trend filters, and visual preferences (colors, dashboard location) to match your trading style.
Market Compatibility : Supports Crypto and Forex markets across all timeframes, but requires careful tuning for each market type.
Usage Notes
Start with default settings and monitor the dashboard to establish a baseline performance for your chosen timeframe and pair.
Gradually adjust one parameter at a time (e.g., left/right bars, TP multipliers) and compare dashboard results to identify improvements.
Use historical pattern analysis to understand how past breakouts performed under different configurations, guiding your optimization process.
Once a high win rate and profitability are achieved, consider automating trades with Bot Mode for consistent execution.

RSI Divergence[UgurTash] – Real-Time📈 RSI Divergence – Real-Time, Adaptive, and Intelligent RSI Divergence Detection
🚀 What Does This Indicator Do?
RSI Divergence is a real-time divergence detection tool that helps traders identify bullish and bearish divergences between price and the Relative Strength Index (RSI). Unlike traditional RSI-based indicators, this script offers:
✅ Real-time detection – No need to wait for bar closes or repainting.
✅ Dynamic time-frame adaptation – The script automatically adjusts RSI settings based on the selected chart time frame.
✅ Multi-layered divergence analysis – Supports short-term, medium-term, and long-term divergence detection with an optional all-term mode that dynamically selects the best configuration.
🛠 How Does It Work?
Pivot-Based Divergence Detection:
The script analyzes pivot points on both price and RSI to determine valid divergences.
Bullish divergence occurs when price forms a lower low but RSI trends higher, indicating potential upward momentum.
Bearish divergence occurs when price forms a higher high but RSI trends lower, signaling possible weakness.
Adaptive RSI Calculation:
The RSI length is dynamically adjusted based on the chosen time frame:
Short-Term: RSI (7) for 1-5 min charts.
Medium-Term: RSI (14) for 15-60 min charts.

Prime Bands [ChartPrime]The Prime Standard Deviation Bands indicator uses custom-calculated bands based on highest and lowest price values over specific period to analyze price volatility and trend direction. Traders can set the bands to 1, 2, or 3 standard deviations from a central base, providing a dynamic view of price behavior in relation to volatility. The indicator also includes color-coded trend signals, standard deviation labels, and mean reversion signals, offering insights into trend strength and potential reversal points.
⯁ KEY FEATURES AND HOW TO USE
⯌ Standard Deviation Bands :
The indicator plots upper and lower bands based on standard deviation settings (1, 2, or 3 SDs) from a central base, allowing traders to visualize volatility and price extremes. These bands can be used to identify overbought and oversold conditions, as well as potential trend reversals.
Example of 3-standard-deviation bands around price:
⯌ Dynamic Trend Indicator :
The midline of the bands changes color based on trend direction. If the midline is rising, it turns green, indicating an uptrend. When the midline is falling, it turns orange, suggesting a downtrend. This color coding provides a quick visual reference to the current trend.
Trend color examples for rising and falling midlines:
⯌ Standard Deviation Labels :
At the end of the bands, the indicator displays labels with price levels for each standard deviation level (+3, 0, -3, etc.), helping traders quickly reference where price is relative to its statistical boundaries.
Price labels at each standard deviation level on the chart:
⯌ Mean Reversion Signals :
When price moves beyond the upper or lower bands and then reverts back inside, the indicator plots mean reversion signals with diamond icons. These signals indicate potential reversal points where the price may return to the mean after extreme moves.
Example of mean reversion signals near bands:
⯌ Standard Deviation Scale on Chart :
A visual scale on the right side of the chart shows the current price position in relation to the bands, expressed in standard deviations. This scale provides an at-a-glance view of how far price has deviated from the mean, helping traders assess risk and volatility.
⯁ USER INPUTS
Length : Sets the number of bars used in the calculation of the bands.
Standard Deviation Level : Allows selection of 1, 2, or 3 standard deviations for upper and lower bands.
Colors : Customize colors for the uptrend and downtrend midline indicators.
⯁ CONCLUSION
The Prime Standard Deviation Bands indicator provides a comprehensive view of price volatility and trend direction.

True Amplitude Envelopes (TAE)The True Envelopes indicator is an adaptation of the True Amplitude Envelope (TAE) method, based on the research paper " Improved Estimation of the Amplitude Envelope of Time Domain Signals Using True Envelope Cepstral Smoothing " by Caetano and Rodet. This indicator aims to create an asymmetric price envelope with strong predictive power, closely following the methodology outlined in the paper.
Due to the inherent limitations of Pine Script, the indicator utilizes a Kernel Density Estimator (KDE) in place of the original Cepstral Smoothing technique described in the paper. While this approach was chosen out of necessity rather than superiority, the resulting method is designed to be as effective as possible within the constraints of the Pine environment.
This indicator is ideal for traders seeking an advanced tool to analyze price dynamics, offering insights into potential price movements while working within the practical constraints of Pine Script. Whether used in dynamic mode or with a static setting, the True Envelopes indicator helps in identifying key support and resistance levels, making it a valuable asset in any trading strategy.
Key Features:
Dynamic Mode: The indicator dynamically estimates the fundamental frequency of the price, optimizing the envelope generation process in real-time to capture critical price movements.
High-Pass Filtering: Uses a high-pass filtered signal to identify and smoothly interpolate price peaks, ensuring that the envelope accurately reflects significant price changes.
Kernel Density Estimation: Although implemented as a workaround, the KDE technique allows for flexible and adaptive smoothing of the envelope, aimed at achieving results comparable to the more sophisticated methods described in the original research.
Symmetric and Asymmetric Envelopes: Provides options to select between symmetric and asymmetric envelopes, accommodating various trading strategies and market conditions.
Smoothness Control: Features adjustable smoothness settings, enabling users to balance between responsiveness and the overall smoothness of the envelopes.
The True Envelopes indicator comes with a variety of input settings that allow traders to customize the behavior of the envelopes to match their specific trading needs and market conditions. Understanding each of these settings is crucial for optimizing the indicator's performance.
Main Settings
Source: This is the data series on which the indicator is applied, typically the closing price (close). You can select other price data like open, high, low, or a custom series to base the envelope calculations.
History: This setting determines how much historical data the indicator should consider when calculating the envelopes. A value of 0 will make the indicator process all available data, while a higher value restricts it to the most recent n bars. This can be useful for reducing the computational load or focusing the analysis on recent market behavior.
Iterations: This parameter controls the number of iterations used in the envelope generation algorithm. More iterations will typically result in a smoother envelope, but can also increase computation time. The optimal number of iterations depends on the desired balance between smoothness and responsiveness.
Kernel Style: The smoothing kernel used in the Kernel Density Estimator (KDE). Available options include Sinc, Gaussian, Epanechnikov, Logistic, and Triangular. Each kernel has different properties, affecting how the smoothing is applied. For example, Gaussian provides a smooth, bell-shaped curve, while Epanechnikov is more efficient computationally with a parabolic shape.
Envelope Style: This setting determines whether the envelope should be Static or Dynamic. The Static mode applies a fixed period for the envelope, while the Dynamic mode automatically adjusts the period based on the fundamental frequency of the price data. Dynamic mode is typically more responsive to changing market conditions.
High Q: This option controls the quality factor (Q) of the high-pass filter. Enabling this will increase the Q factor, leading to a sharper cutoff and more precise isolation of high-frequency components, which can help in better identifying significant price peaks.
Symmetric: This setting allows you to choose between symmetric and asymmetric envelopes. Symmetric envelopes maintain an equal distance from the central price line on both sides, while asymmetric envelopes can adjust differently above and below the price line, which might better capture market conditions where upside and downside volatility are not equal.
Smooth Envelopes: When enabled, this setting applies additional smoothing to the envelopes. While this can reduce noise and make the envelopes more visually appealing, it may also decrease their responsiveness to sudden market changes.
Dynamic Settings
Extra Detrend: This setting toggles an additional high-pass filter that can be applied when using a long filter period. The purpose is to further detrend the data, ensuring that the envelope focuses solely on the most recent price oscillations.
Filter Period Multiplier: This multiplier adjusts the period of the high-pass filter dynamically based on the detected fundamental frequency. Increasing this multiplier will lengthen the period, making the filter less sensitive to short-term price fluctuations.
Filter Period (Min) and Filter Period (Max): These settings define the minimum and maximum bounds for the high-pass filter period. They ensure that the filter period stays within a reasonable range, preventing it from becoming too short (and overly sensitive) or too long (and too sluggish).
Envelope Period Multiplier: Similar to the filter period multiplier, this adjusts the period for the envelope generation. It scales the period dynamically to match the detected price cycles, allowing for more precise envelope adjustments.
Envelope Period (Min) and Envelope Period (Max): These settings establish the minimum and maximum bounds for the envelope period, ensuring the envelopes remain adaptive without becoming too reactive or too slow.
Static Settings
Filter Period: In static mode, this setting determines the fixed period for the high-pass filter. A shorter period will make the filter more responsive to price changes, while a longer period will smooth out more of the price data.
Envelope Period: This setting specifies the fixed period used for generating the envelopes in static mode. It directly influences how tightly or loosely the envelopes follow the price action.
TAE Smoothing: This controls the degree of smoothing applied during the TAE process in static mode. Higher smoothing values result in more gradual envelope curves, which can be useful in reducing noise but may also delay the envelope’s response to rapid price movements.
Visual Settings
Top Band Color: This setting allows you to choose the color for the upper band of the envelope. This band represents the resistance level in the price action.
Bottom Band Color: Similar to the top band color, this setting controls the color of the lower band, which represents the support level.
Center Line Color: This is the color of the central price line, often referred to as the carrier. It represents the detrended price around which the envelopes are constructed.
Line Width: This determines the thickness of the plotted lines for the top band, bottom band, and center line. Thicker lines can make the envelopes more visible, especially when overlaid on price data.
Fill Alpha: This controls the transparency level of the shaded area between the top and bottom bands. A lower alpha value will make the fill more transparent, while a higher value will make it more opaque, helping to highlight the envelope more clearly.
The envelopes generated by the True Envelopes indicator are designed to provide a more precise and responsive representation of price action compared to traditional methods like Bollinger Bands or Keltner Channels. The core idea behind this indicator is to create a price envelope that smoothly interpolates the significant peaks in price action, offering a more accurate depiction of support and resistance levels.
One of the critical aspects of this approach is the use of a high-pass filtered signal to identify these peaks. The high-pass filter serves as an effective method of detrending the price data, isolating the rapid fluctuations in price that are often lost in standard trend-following indicators. By filtering out the lower frequency components (i.e., the trend), the high-pass filter reveals the underlying oscillations in the price, which correspond to significant peaks and troughs. These oscillations are crucial for accurately constructing the envelope, as they represent the most responsive elements of the price movement.
The algorithm works by first applying the high-pass filter to the source price data, effectively detrending the series and isolating the high-frequency price changes. This filtered signal is then used to estimate the fundamental frequency of the price movement, which is essential for dynamically adjusting the envelope to current market conditions. By focusing on the peaks identified in the high-pass filtered signal, the algorithm generates an envelope that is both smooth and adaptive, closely following the most significant price changes without overfitting to transient noise.
Compared to traditional envelopes and bands, such as Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels, the True Envelopes indicator offers several advantages. Bollinger Bands, which are based on standard deviations, and Keltner Channels, which use the average true range (ATR), both tend to react to price volatility but do not necessarily follow the peaks and troughs of the price with precision. As a result, these traditional methods can sometimes lag behind or fail to capture sudden shifts in price momentum, leading to either false signals or missed opportunities.
In contrast, the True Envelopes indicator, by using a high-pass filtered signal and a dynamic period estimation, adapts more quickly to changes in price behavior. The envelopes generated by this method are less prone to the lag that often affects standard deviation or ATR-based bands, and they provide a more accurate representation of the price's immediate oscillations. This can result in better predictive power and more reliable identification of support and resistance levels, making the True Envelopes indicator a valuable tool for traders looking for a more responsive and precise approach to market analysis.
In conclusion, the True Envelopes indicator is a powerful tool that blends advanced theoretical concepts with practical implementation, offering traders a precise and responsive way to analyze price dynamics. By adapting the True Amplitude Envelope (TAE) method through the use of a Kernel Density Estimator (KDE) and high-pass filtering, this indicator effectively captures the most significant price movements, providing a more accurate depiction of support and resistance levels compared to traditional methods like Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels. The flexible settings allow for extensive customization, ensuring the indicator can be tailored to suit various trading strategies and market conditions.

Additionally, it provides alert conditions to notify traders of potential confirmations, enhancing decision-making without cluttering the chart.
⚠️ Important Reminder : The labels indicating double tops and bottoms appear with a delay and are intended to mark the formations after they have already formed. They are not meant to be used as real-time trading signals. While they align perfectly with pivot points in hindsight, please use them as markers for analysis rather than immediate trading triggers.
Flag Screener [QuantVue]Flag Screener is a screening tool that identify bull and bear flags in up to 40 different symbols.
The indicator takes a comma separated list of symbols and then scans the symbols in real time to detect bull or bear flags.
What are flags
Flags are continuation patterns that occur within the general trend of the security. A bull flag represents a temporary pause or consolidation before price resumes it's upward movement, while a bear flag occurs before price continues its downward movement.
Both flag patterns consist of two components:
The Pole
The Flag
The pole is the initial strong upward surge or decline that precedes the flag. The pole is usually a fast move accompanied by heavy volume signaling significant buying or selling pressure.
The flag is then formed as price consolidates after the initial surge or decline from the pole. For a bull flag price will drift slightly downward to sideways, a bear flag will drift upward to sideways. The best flags often see volume dry up during this phase of the pattern.
Indicator Settings
Both components are fully customizable in the indicator so the user can adjust for any time frame or volatility. Select the minimum and maximum accepted limits from the % gain loss required for the pole, the maximum acceptable flag depth or rally and the minimum and maximum number of bars for each component.
FVG Channel [LuxAlgo]The FVG Channel indicator displays a channel constructed from the averages of unmitigated historical fair value gaps (FVG), allowing to identify trends and potential reversals in the market.
Users can control the amount of FVGs to consider for the calculation of the channels, as well as their degree of smoothness through user settings.
🔶 USAGE
The FVG Channel is constructed by averaging together recent unmitigated Bullish FVGs (contributing to the creation of the upper bands), and Bearish unmitigated FVGs (contributing to the creation of the lower bands) within a lookback determined by the user. A higher lookback will return longer-term indications from the indicator.
The channel includes 5 bands, with one upper and one lower outer extremities, as well as an inner series of values determined using the Fibonacci ratios (respectively 0.786, 0.5, 0.236) from the channel's outer extremities.
An uptrend can be identified by price holding above the inner upper band (obtained from the 0.786 ratio), this band can also provide occasional support when the price retraces to it while in an uptrend.
Breaking below the inner upper band with an unwillingness to reach above again is a clear sign of hesitation in the market and can be indicative of an upcoming consolidation or reversal.
This can directly be applied to downtrends as well, below are examples displaying both scenarios.
Uptrend Example:
Downtrend Example:
🔹 Breakout Levels
When the price mitigates all FVGs in a single direction except for 1, the indicator will display a "Breakout Level". This is the level that price will need to cross in order for all FVGs in that direction to be mitigated, because of this they can also be aptly called "Last Stand Levels".
These levels can be considered as potential support and resistance levels, however, should always be monitored for breakouts since a substantial push above or below these points would indicate strong momentum.
🔹 Signals
The indicator includes Bullish and Bearish Signals, these signals fire when all FVGs for a single direction have been mitigated and an engulfing candle occurs in the opposite direction. These are reversal signals and should be used alongside other indicators to appropriately manage risk.
Note: When all FVGs in a single direction have been mitigated, the candles will change colors accordingly.
🔶 DETAILS
The script uses a typical identification method for FVGs. Once identified, the script collects and stores the mitigation levels of the respective bullish and bearish FVGs:
For Bullish FVGs this is the bottom of the FVG.
For Bearish FVGs this is the top of the FVG.
The data is managed to only consider a specific amount of FVG mitigation levels, determined by the set "Unmitigated FVG Lookback". If an FVG is mitigated, it frees up a spot in the memory for a new FVG, however, if the memory is full, the oldest will be deleted.
The averages displayed (Channel Upper and Lower) are created from 2 calculation steps, the first step involves taking the raw average of the FVG mitigation levels, and the second step applies a simple moving average (SMA) smoothing of the precedent obtained averages.
Note: To view the mitigation levels average obtained in the first step, the "Smoothing Length" can be set to 1.
🔶 SETTINGS
Unmitigated FVG Lookback: Sets the maximum number of Unmitigated FVG mitigation levels that the script will use to calculate the channel.
Smoothing Length: Sets the smoothing length for the channel to reduce noise from the raw data.
Periodic Linear Regressions [LuxAlgo]The Periodic Linear Regressions (PLR) indicator calculates linear regressions periodically (similar to the VWAP indicator) based on a user-set period (anchor).
This allows for estimating underlying trends in the price, as well as providing potential supports/resistances.
🔶 USAGE
The Periodic Linear Regressions indicator calculates a linear regression over a user-selected interval determined from the selected "Anchor Period".
The PLR can be visualized as a regular linear regression (Static), with a fit readjusting for new data points until the end of the selected period, or as a moving average (Rolling), with new values obtained from the last point of a linear regression fitted over the calculation interval. While the static method line is prone to repainting, it has value since it can further emphasize the linearity of an underlying trend, as well as suggest future trend directions by extrapolating the fit.
Extremities are included in the indicator, these are obtained from the root mean squared error (RMSE) between the price and calculated linear regression. The Multiple setting allows the users to control how far each extremity is from the other.
Periodic Linear Regressions can be helpful in finding support/resistance areas or even opportunities when ranging in a channel.
The anchor - where a new period starts - can be shown (in this case in the top right corner).
The shown bands can be visualized by enabling Show Extremities in settings ( Rolling or Static method).
The script includes a background gradient color option for the bands, which only applies when using the Rolling method.
The indicator colors can be suggestive of the detected trend and are determined as follows:
Method Rolling: a gradient color between red and green indicates the trend; more green if the output is rising, suggesting an uptrend, and more red if it is decreasing, suggesting a downtrend.
Method Static: green if the slope of the line is positive, suggesting an uptrend, red if negative, suggesting a downtrend.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Anchor Type
When the Anchor Type is set to Periodic , the indicator will be reset when the "Anchor Period" changes, after which calculations will start again.
An anchored rolling line set at First Bar won't reset at a new session; it will continue calculating the linear regression from the first bar to the last; in other words, every bar is included in the calculation. This can be useful to detect potential long-term tops/bottoms.
Note that a linear regression needs at least two values for its calculation, which explains why you won't see a static line at the first bar of the session. The rolling linear regression will only show from the 3rd bar of the session since it also needs a previous value.
🔹 Rolling/Static
When Anchor Type is set at Periodic , a linear regression is calculated between the first bar of the chosen session and the current bar, aiming to find the line that best fits the dataset.
The example above shows the lines drawn during the session. The offered script, though, shows the last calculated point connected to the previous point when the Rolling method is chosen, while the Static method shows the latest line.
Note that linear regression needs at least two values, which explains why you won't see a static line at the first bar of the session. The rolling line will only show from the 3rd bar of the session since it also needs a previous value.

HTF TriangleHTF Triangle by ZeroHeroTrading aims at detecting ascending and descending triangles using higher time frame data, without repainting nor misalignment issues.
It addresses user requests for combining Ascending Triangle and Descending Triangle into one indicator.
Ascending triangles are defined by an horizontal upper trend line and a rising lower trend line. It is a chart pattern used in technical analysis to predict the continuation of an uptrend.
Descending triangles are defined by a falling upper trend line and an horizontal lower trend line. It is a chart pattern used in technical analysis to predict the continuation of a downtrend.
This indicator can be useful if you, like me, believe that higher time frames can offer a broader perspective and provide clearer signals, smoothing out market noise and showing longer-term trends.
You can change the indicator settings as you see fit to tighten or loosen the detection, and achieve the best results for your use case.
Features
It draws the detected ascending and descending triangles on the chart.
It supports alerting when a detection occurs.
It allows for selecting ascending and/or descending triangle detection.
It allows for setting the higher time frame to run the detection on.
It allows for setting the minimum number of consecutive valid higher time frame bars to fit the pattern criteria.
It allows for setting a high/low factor detection criteria to apply on higher time frame bars high/low as a proportion of the distance between the reference bar high/low and open/close.
It allows for turning on an adjustment of the triangle using highest/lowest values within valid higher time frame bars.
Settings
Ascending checkbox: Turns on/off ascending triangle detection. Default is on.
Descending checkbox: Turns on/off descending triangle detection. Default is on.
Higher Time Frame dropdown: Selects higher time frame to run the detection on. It must be higher than, and a multiple of, the chart's timeframe. Default is 5 minutes.
Valid Bars Minimum field: Sets minimum number of consecutive valid higher time frame bars to fit the pattern criteria. Default is 3. Minimum is 1.
High/Low Factor checkbox: Turns on/off high/low factor detection criteria. Default is on.
High/Low Factor field: Sets high/low factor to apply on higher time frame bars high/low as a proportion of the distance between the reference bar high/low and open/close. Default is 0. Minimum is 0. Maximum is 1.
Adjust Triangle checkbox: Turns on/off triangle adjustment using highest/lowest values within valid higher time frame bars. Default is on.
Detection Algorithm Notes
The detection algorithm recursively selects a higher time frame bar as reference. Then it looks at the consecutive higher time frame bars (as per the requested number of minimum valid bars) as follows:
Ascending Triangle
Low must be higher than previous bar.
Open/close max value must be lower than (or equal to) reference bar high.
When high/low factor criteria is turned on, high must be higher than (or equal to) reference bar open/close max value plus high/low factor proportion of the distance between reference bar high and open/close max value.
Descending Triangle
High must be lower than previous bar.
Open/close min value must be higher than (or equal to) reference bar low.
When high/low factor criteria is turned on, low must be lower than (or equal to) reference bar open/close min value minus high/low factor proportion of the distance between reference bar low and open/close min value.
Half Cup [LuxAlgo]The Half Cup indicator detects and displays patterns with the shape of a Half Cup , initiating a channel. From this channel, breakouts are detected and highlighted with dots.
Users can control the shape of the Half Cup and the channel length through various settings.
Do note that the displayed half cups are displayed retrospectively, making them subject to backpainting.
🔶 USAGE
The idea behind the indicator is derived from the Cup & Handle pattern, which requires waiting for the pattern full completion.
Our Half Cup publication aims to find opportunities when the potential cup is only formed halfway.
In this example, a green dot shows the first breakout of the upper channel extremity. A few bars later, the price went under it, after which it returned above, triggering a second green dot. Both triggers were good opportunities in this case, and the price rose afterward.
The Half Cup pattern can be the start of a potential complete Cup & Handle (As in the example above, a complete Cup pattern (without the Handle ) is shown, manually drawn with dashed lines).
Every green/red dot, whether on a bullish or bearish pattern, points to a breakout respectively above/below the channel.
Besides drawing patterns and the corresponding breakouts, the Half Cup indicator can also provide insights into trends and potential opportunities in the long run.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Validation
Several criteria must be fulfilled before a visible pattern on the chart is drawn.
Calculations are done beforehand to know where the Half Cup pattern would be positioned.
The pattern's bottom and top edges are checked for the number of bars whose closing price is outside the half-cup area. When the number of breakouts above/below is equal to or lower than the user-defined settings ( Max % Breaks Top/Bottom ), the pattern is drawn together with a brighter-colored channel next to it.
Dots highlighting the channel's breakout can be drawn from that moment until the end of both channel lines.
🔹 Positioning
Users can adjust the following settings to fit their needs:
% Broadness: Moves the Top/Bottom line (bullish or bearish) diagonally upwards/downwards.
Vertical Shift: Shifts the entire pattern up/down.
Channel Length: Sets the line length of the channel.
Note that adjusting the position of the pattern will change the validation; the script will be rerun to check if patterns are still valid or if new patterns can be drawn. Some patterns may disappear, while new ones may appear.
Before adjusting the position, the user can set Max % Breaks Top/Bottom at 100%. When the positioning is set, Max % Breaks Top/Bottom can be set as desired.
🔹 Updated Drawings
The Half Cup pattern is always drawn retrospectively (that is it is subject to backpainting), the channel is drawn from the bar from where the pattern is detected. Every breakout of the channel will remain visible as dots.
When a new swing high/low is found while the previous swing low/high remains the same, the pattern is updated to minimize clutter. The dots of earlier drawings will remain visible (to ensure no repainting occurs), but the color becomes faded, as such bright dots are associated with patterns that are visible on the chart, while faded dots are from removed/updated patterns.
🔶 SETTINGS
Swing Length: Period used for the swing detection, with higher values returning longer-term Swing Levels.
🔹 Validation
Max % Breaks Bottom: Allowed maximum amount of bars where the closing price is below the bottom of the Half Cup pattern against the total width of the pattern (bars).
Max % Breaks Top: Allowed maximum amount of bars where the closing price is above the top of the Half Cup pattern against the total width of the pattern (bars).
🔹 Positioning
% Broadness: Moves the Top/Bottom line (bullish or bearish) diagonally upwards/downwards.
Vertical Shift: Shifts the entire pattern up/down.
Channel Length: Sets the line length of the channel.
