SuperTrend Enhanced Pivot Reversal - Strategy [PresentTrading]
- Introduction and How it is Different
The SuperTrend Enhanced Pivot Reversal is a unique approach to trading that combines the best of two worlds: the precision of pivot reversal points and the trend-following power of the SuperTrend indicator. This strategy is designed to provide traders with clear entry and exit points, while also filtering out potentially false signals using the SuperTrend indicator.
BTCUSDT 6hr
ETHBTC 6hr
Unlike traditional pivot reversal strategies, this approach uses the SuperTrend indicator as a filter. This means that it only takes trades that align with the overall trend, as determined by the SuperTrend indicator. This can help to reduce the number of false signals and improve the overall profitability of the strategy.
The Pivot Reversal Strategy with SuperTrend Filter is particularly well-suited to the cryptocurrency market for the reason of High Volatility. This means that prices can change rapidly in a very short time, making it possible to make a profit quickly. The strategy's use of pivot points allows traders to take advantage of these rapid price changes by identifying potential reversal points
- Strategy: How it Works
The strategy works by identifying pivot reversal points, which are points in the price chart where the price is likely to reverse. These points are identified using a combination of the ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow functions, which find the highest and lowest points in the price chart over a certain period.
Once a pivot reversal point is identified, the strategy checks the direction of the SuperTrend indicator. If the SuperTrend is positive (indicating an uptrend), the strategy will only take long trades. If the SuperTrend is negative (indicating a downtrend), the strategy will only take short trades.
The strategy also includes a stop loss level, which is set as a percentage of the entry price. This helps to limit potential losses if the price moves in the opposite direction to the trade.
- Trade Direction
The trade direction can be set to "Long", "Short", or "Both". This allows the trader to choose whether they want to take only long trades (buying low and selling high), only short trades (selling high and buying low), or both. This can be useful depending on the trader's view of the market and their risk tolerance.
- Usage
To use the Pivot Reversal Strategy with SuperTrend Filter, simply input the desired parameters into the script and apply it to the price chart of the asset you wish to trade. The strategy will then identify potential trade entry and exit points, which will be displayed on the price chart.
- Default Settings
The default settings for the strategy are as follows:
ATR Length: 5
Factor: 2.618
Trade Direction: Both
Stop Loss Level: 20%
Commission: 0.1%
Slippage: 1
Currency: USD
Each trade: 10% of account equity
Initial capital: $10,000
These settings can be adjusted to suit the trader's preferences and risk tolerance. Always remember to test any changes to the settings using historical data before applying them to live trades.

Market Smith IndicatorsMarket Smith has a collection of tools that are useful for identifying stocks. On their charts they have a 21/50/200 day moving averages, high and low pivot points, a relative strength line, and a relative strength rating. This script contains indicators for the following:
21/50/200 Day Moving Averages
High and Low pivot points
A Relative Strength line
A Relative Strength rating
21/50/200 Day Moving Averages
The 21/50/200 Day moving averages are simple moving averages. They are visible in any chart increment but to use them properly you need to set you charts to be by day. Labels will appear on the right of the lines to show that they are representative of 21/50/200 day moving averages.
High and Low pivot points
The High and Low pivot points are green for high pivot points and red for low points. They are show in the Market Smith style with the numbers simply above the pivot points.
Relative Strength line
The Relative Strength line is a line that shows the strength of the stock compared to the S&P 500. In this case we utilize the SPX ticker to compare the stock to. This line is almost identical to the Market Smith tool and is an excellent tool to determine how a stock is doing compared to the market. When movements in the stock and shown with sideways trending of the RS line that means that the stock is following the market. When a stock is outperforming the market the RS line will follow.
Relative Strength rating
Thank you to ©Fred6724 for the RS Rating inspiration. They wrote excellent open source code for a RS Rating comparable to Market Smith. As the RS Rating in Market Smith is not open source it is difficult to know exactly how it is being calculated. After simplifying Fred's code and building upon a few ideas I had I compared the RS Rating to multiple Market Smith Ratings. The rating is close but often off by multiple points. If there is anyone who has a better idea on how to get this rating or how to improve on the code please send me a PM or fork this project. This rating is a good indicator to see how a certain stock compares to other stocks in the market. In Market Smith they are able to utilize their database to compare it to all other stocks. Since we do not have access to the same tools we are only able to compare it to the percentage of stocks above the 200, 150, 100, 50, and 20 day moving average.
Using these tools together are a small fraction what make people like Bill O'neill and Jim Roppel so successful. I plan on updating the RS Rating as I continue to work on this project so if there is anyone who has ideas then please send me a PM. Ultimately the goal of this project is to have a solution that is identical to Market Smith.

K's Pivot PointsPivot points are a popular technical analysis tool used by traders to identify potential levels of support and resistance in a given timeframe. Pivot points are derived from previous price action and are used to estimate potential price levels where an asset may experience a reversal, breakout, or significant price movement.
The calculation of pivot points involves a simple formula that takes into account the high, low, and close prices from the previous trading session or a specific period. The most commonly used pivot point calculation method is the "Standard" or "Classic" method. Here's the formula:
Pivot Point (P) = (High + Low + Close) / 3
In addition to the pivot point itself, several support and resistance levels are calculated based on the pivot point value.
K's Pivot Points try to enhance them by incorporating multiple elements and by applying a re-integration strategy to validate two events:
* Found_Support: This event represents a basing market that is bound to recover or at least shape a bounce.
* Found_Resistance: This event represents a toppish market that is bound to consolidate or at least shape a pause.
K's Pivot Points are calculated following these steps:
1. Calculate the highest of highs for the previous 24 periods (preferably hours).
2. Calculate the lowest of lows for the previous 24 periods (preferably hours).
3. Calculate a 24-period (preferably hours) moving average of the close price.
4. Calculate K's Pivot Point as the average between the three previous step.
5. To find the support, use this formula: Support = (Lowest K's pivot point of the last 12 periods * 2) - Step 1
6. To find the resistance, use this formula: Resistance = (Highest K's pivot point of the last 12 periods * 2) - Step 2
The re-integration strategy to find support and resistance areas is as follows:
* A support has been found if the market breaks the support and shapes a close above it afterwards.
* A resistance has been found if the market surpasses the resistance and shapes a close below it afterwards.
The lookback period (whether 24 and 12) can be modified but the default versions work well.
Bank Nifty ScalpingThis indicator is designed for scalping purposes.
Users have the option to input the desired source and enable or disable the following indicators:
Multiple EMA (Exponential moving average)
Simultaneously displays multiple moving averages to quickly identify shifts in momentum and obtain confirmation from slower-moving averages.
By default, the EMA display settings are configured to show the 20-day EMA and the 200-day EMA. However, users have the flexibility to modify the display settings according to their preferences. This means that users can customize the indicator to show the EMA values of their choice, such as EMA 50 and EMA 100.
VWAP ( Volume weighted average price )
Default value is set to ‘hl2’
A bullish trend is indicated when the price is above the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP), while a bearish trend is indicated when the price is below the VWAP.
VWMA ( Volume weighted moving average )
In the VWMA (Volume Weighted Moving Average) indicator, a default value of 20 is used. If the price is higher than the VWMA, it typically indicates a bullish trend. Conversely, if the price is lower than the VWMA, it suggests a bearish trend. The VWMA takes into account both price and volume, providing a weighted average that can help identify shifts in market sentiment.
Multiple SuperTrends
Default value is 10 and 2 / 10 and 3
A bullish trend is identified when the price is above the SuperTrend indicator, whereas a bearish trend is observed when the price is below the SuperTrend indicator.
Camarilla Pivot Points (Level 3 and 4 only)
Levels 3 and 4 serve as crucial support and resistance levels, acting as the final line of defense against strong trends. These levels are expected to generate reversals, where price often changes direction.
CPR ( Central Pivot Points)
The Daily Central Pivot Point Indicator is a popular tool used in technical analysis. It calculates several levels based on the previous day's high, low, and closing prices.
Strong Volume
The user has the ability to set the average volume for Nifty and BankNifty indices to calculate strong volume.
Elder Impulse System
The Impulse System, developed by Alexander Elder and discussed in his book "New Trading for a Living," is a censorship trading system designed to determine whether a trade should be allowed or prohibited. Additionally, it can be used to identify when a trend is starting to weaken. The Impulse System relies on the following factors:
1. Slope of a Fast Exponential Moving Average (EMA): The fast EMA's slope reflects the price's inertia or momentum.
2. Slope of the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD): The MACD's slope indicates the strength or power of the price movement.
Based on these factors, the Impulse System categorizes candles or price bars into three colors:
* Green Candle: When both the fast EMA and MACD are rising, indicating upward momentum.
* Red Candle: When both the fast EMA and MACD are declining, suggesting downward momentum.
* Blue Candle: In all other cases where the conditions for green or red candles are not met, representing a neutral or uncertain market condition.
By applying the Impulse System, traders can gain insights into the market trend, its strength, and potential shifts in momentum, helping them make informed trading decisions.
Happy Trading

BE-TrendLines & Price SentimentsOverview
The trendline is one of the most potent and flexible tools in trading. A rising trendline indicates an upward trend, a falling trendline indicates a downward trend, and a flat trendline indicates a range-bound bond market.
Breakouts, price bounces, and reversal / Retest tactics are all types of trades that may be made using a trendline. Additionally, stop-loss and profit-trailing orders can be based on trendlines as support and resistance levels, appropriately.
Technical Calculations for Trendlines & Price Sentiments:
Pivot points for a specified time frame and the Prevailing High/Low for the most recent bars are used to derive trendlines. While Pivot Points alert us to price movements, High/Low tells us where Bulls and Bears find a middle ground. This provides a remarkable set of conditions from which to extrapolate the efficacy of the Trendlines.
The term "price sensitivity" refers to how much a change in the price of a product causes consumers to alter their purchase habits. It's the relationship between price shifts and shifts in consumer demand. So, for example, if a 30% jump in the cost of a product leads to a 10% drop in purchases, we can conclude that the item has a price sensitivity of 0.33%.
Basis the above theoretical statement, If the underlying asset's price drops, the indicator shall compute data on the amount of volume being pumped (Inflow vs Outflow) into the market (if available), or the percentage by which the price has changed. This will be compared to the recent drop rate to see if the behavior has changed at the similar value zone and non similar value zone. similar calculation shall be done if the price of the underlying rises.
Traders may benefit from hearing about Trendlines in their "Story Telling" form, which we now present. To help you comprehend it better, candles are divided into three Sentiment groups based on their color. Colors: Green (with its shades), Silver, and Red (including its shades). Green signifies a Bullish Trend, Silver a neutral trend, and Red a Brearish Trend.
Bullish Trend
Bearish Trend
Neutral Trend
Sentiment Price Cycle in Trending Market: Green (Directional Bullish), Dark Green (Bullish Trend Loosing its Strength), Silver (Neutral Trend), Red (Directional Bearish), Dark Red (Bearish Trend Loosing its Strength)
Sentiment Price Cycle in RangeBound Market: Green (Over Brought), Silver (Neutral) & Red (Over Sold)
How to Initiate Trade when price is within TL:
Fake Break Out Trade:
BreakDown Trade:
BreakOut Trade:
Couple of Other Features in the Indicator:
Single Alerts = These are the alerts where in, as and when the Event happens Alerts shall the trigerred. like On BreakOut, BreakDown, TouchOf Up TrendLine, TouchOf DownTrendLine, Retest Of Up TrendLine, Retest of DownTrendLine.
Conditional Alerts = These are those type of Alerts where in you can combine 2 or 3 conditions to trigger an Alert. Like
Sample 1 - After Down TL is tested for 3 times, If BreakOut happens and the setiment turns Bullish within 5 Candles.
Sample 2 - After Up TL is tested for 2 times, If Price Bounces backUp from TL and the setiment turns Bullish within 5 Candles.
Similarly you can customize the combination of events for getting the alert.

Rolling Pivot PointsStandard Pivot Points are calculated from the previous day’s (week/month/year) close/low/high values. But what is the day close for cryptocurrencies trading 24/7 on exchange? Does it make sense to use a specific time price as a close if it continues trading after that?
So I solved that issue with Rolling Pivot Points, where I calculate pivot points not at the end of the period but for every bar on a rolling basis. Every time I recalculate pivot points, I look at a window of period length in bars and base my calculations on these bars. This way, you get smooth pivot points changing with every bar, and it should better represent support and resistance for the price.
In this indicator, I implement three types of pivot points.
Camarilla
Fibonacci
Traditional
In terms of period, you can select any one you want. If you’ll keep Auto Indicator well, compute period automatically. For two days, for example, use ‘Day’ in Period and 2 in Period Mult parameters.
You can also change the type of MA used to smooth Pivot Points.
Disclaimer
Please remember that past performance may not be indicative of future results.
Due to various factors, including changing market conditions, the strategy may perform less well than in historical backtesting.
This post and the script don’t provide any financial advice.
Tweezer PatternThis is a rudimentary indicator to plot tweezer bottoms and tweezer tops. I use this primarily on the 15 minute, but may be applicable to other timeframes.
Criteria for a Tweezer Bottom:
- We were previously in a downtrend (determined by the color of the previous two candles)
- The current candle is green
- The current and previous candle have lower wicks
- The current candle open is approximately the same as the previous candle close (adjustable through settings)
Criteria for a Tweezer Top:
- We were previously in an uptrend (determined by the color of the previous two candles)
- The current candle is red
- The current and previous candle have upper wicks
- The current candle open is approximately the same as the previous candle close (adjustable through settings)
Potential Improvements:
- Determine trend through TA, for example using SMAs
- Ensure wick length as some percentage of candle height instead of just checking for existence
- Ensure tweezer candle is large or has some required minimum volume to reduce false positives
For any improvements or ideas, feel free to contact me :)

Basic PRISM Algorithm [ByteBoost]The Basic ByteBoost PRISM strategy is designed to operate in various market conditions by leveraging the concept of brownian motion theory, which refers to the unpredictable movement of particles suspended in a fluid. This characteristic of random motion can be effectively utilized for analyzing time series data, such as market candles. Based on this notion, we are making the following assumptions regarding the market.
The stock price exhibits characteristics of Brownian motion.
The stock price is distributed in a log-normal pattern.
Volatility remains constant over time.
Options can only be exercised upon expiration.
Risk-free interest does not fluctuate over time.
There are no random or arbitrary opportunities present in the market.
Development Notes
This Strategy was developed with the PineScript language, version 5. This indicator, and most of the descriptions below, were derived largely from the TradingView reference manual. Feedback and suggestions for improvement are more than welcome, as well as recommended input settings and best practices to assist and guide new users effectively.
Features
The ByteBoost PRISM indicator is capable of analyzing multiple aspects of market behavior simultaneously such as:
Detection of potential trend reversals.
Assessment of trend strength and market sentiment.
Identification of stop loss levels.
Discovery of potential entry and exit points.
Ensuring compatibility and effectiveness with other indicators.
Visualization of strategy using historical data.
Strategy Description
PRISM is an all in one strategy that allows the visualization of entry and exit points as well as the historical performance for every set of parameters. PRISM is a slow paced indicator recommended for the 1h timeframe, because it operates on the belief that markets move in a Brownian motion, for which it leaves enough space and time for the market to decide a trend and catch it at the right time as well as finding appropriate exits given the trend.
PRISM can exist in either an uptrend or downtrend state, but it does not necessarily imply that it reflects the true trend being observed. Instead, it emphasizes capturing significant movements and capitalizing on them by utilizing oscillator levels and exit points calculated based on oversold or overbought values, along with the volatility associated with these movements.
Usage
To use this strategy it is first needed to select a correct set of inputs that correspond to the market you are using, the extra, win difference and oscillator length are dependent on the current market and the average price it manages, so these inputs need to be modified for every pair of assets used.
The long and short tags signify the opportune moment to initiate a new position in the market, whether it's a long or short position, respectively. The exit tags indicate when these positions should be closed. If no exits occur before a new long or short position emerges, it is essential to conclude the existing position and commence a new one in the opposite direction.
Regarding exits, up to two exits can be executed for each movement. The user has the flexibility to determine how these exits are utilized. In the input section, a specific percentage of equity can be selected to be sold during the first exit. If set to 100%, only a single exit will be presented. Otherwise, the remaining equity will be sold during the second exit or at the next trend reversal depending on which action occurs first.
In case the user requires additional exits beyond the initial two, the alternative exits option can be activated in the inputs. This will provide access to supplementary exits, although they may be less advisable compared to the primary exits.
Inputs / Settings
Capital - If using any leverage multiply the amount of money to invest by the leverage, else input the amount to be invested in every trade.
Start date - The date from which the strategy should begin its analysis. Leave unchanged to start from the earliest available date based on your account's plan.
End date - The date until which the strategy should conduct its analysis. Leave unchanged to continue until the current date.
Extra - The minimum gain required in the market to trigger an exit opportunity. It can be a negative number to allow exits at a loss, potentially minimizing losses.
First exit % - If an exit is decided to be partial, it is very likely that there will be a second exit, this parameter determines the percentage of equity to be sold at the first exit. Note that a second exit may not always be applicable.
Win difference - The minimum difference between the entry point and the first exit to determine whether it should be a full exit or a partial exit, as the exit price approaches the entry price, the probability of a trend reversal increases, a full exit is beneficial.
Oscillator - Enables or disables the main oscillator, which helps determine entry points. Not all assets may benefit from this parameter.
Oscillator length - Specifies the number of candles considered for the entry points oscillator.
Highlighter - Applies a light color between the trend and average price of each bar.
Labels - Displays all the labels on the chart indicating trends, positions and exits.
Candle color - Color codes the inside of the candles with the current signal.
Oscillator points - Adds visual dots to indicate when the oscillator has changed its trend.
Color uptrend - Determines the color scheme for identifying uptrend movements.
Color downtrend - Determines the color scheme for identifying downtrend movements.
Color long - Sets the color scheme for a new long position.
Color short - Sets the color scheme for a new short position.
Color exit - Decides the color scheme for the exit tag and cross shown.
Indicator Visuals
The strategy plots the direction of the trend on the chart and changes its color based on this. It also plots shapes on the chart to denote potential buy (Long) and sell (Short) points, where the signals of short and long will appear as well as exit points which can be found as three different,
Exit 1 - A partial exit which sells the previously selected percentage of equity.
Exit 2 - A second exit that can only happen after an Exit 1 has happened, and sell the remaining amount of equity.
Exit Full - A full exit is executed when the price at the exit point is lower than the entry price plus the win difference value. This condition indicates that it is more advantageous to take a single exit rather than waiting for a second exit.
Strategy Alerts
The strategy does not include built-in alerts. However, alerts can be added using the TradingView interface based on the strategy's buy and sell conditions. This way you will be able to receive notifications on your computer or phone when a new signal goes out.
Details
Repainting: It is important to mention that the strategy can mark false long or short signals, as the oscillator is allowed to repaint on the same candle. So users must make sure the candle has closed on buy/sell conditions.
Excessive capital issue: If you configure the strategy with a big amount of capital (+$1,000,000 for example) it is possible that it will completely stop calculating exit signals, as they will be too big for TradingView’s engine to process.
Conclusion
The ByteBoost PRISM strategy empowers traders by providing comprehensive market analysis, clear entry and exit signals, and the ability to visualize strategy performance using historical data. It is a superior algorithm that maximizes profit potential and minimizes risks, making it the preferred choice for traders seeking a competitive edge in the financial markets.

ADW - Colour TrendColour Trend is an indicator that will give you a visual representation of the trend in a selected market, and alert you when the trend changes. The green colour represents a bullish trend (prices are going up), the red colour represents a bearish trend (prices are going down), and silver represents a neutral trend (prices are relatively stable). The script calculates these trends based on the relative price levels and their moving averages.
Below is a breakdown of the script so you can better understand how these trends are defined.
Function f_p(_length, price) : This function calculates the price relative to its highest and lowest point over the given `_length` of time. This calculation is normalized by multiplying it by 100, giving us a percentage-like measure.
User Inputs : The length of the period (default 12), you can choose to show or hide bar colours (default is true).
Variables cycle_avg, cycle_counter, cycle_count, cycle_trend, cycle_col : These variables are used to calculate the trend cycles. The `cycle_avg` is the average trend cycle, `cycle_counter` keeps track of the current trend cycle, `cycle_count` counts the total number of cycles, `cycle_trend` keeps track of the direction of the cycle (1 for up, -1 for down), and `cycle_col` defines the colour of the current cycle.
Variables ph, pl, avg, mean : These variables calculate the price level relative to the highest and lowest prices (`ph` and `pl`), the average of these two levels (`avg`), and the cumulative average of the price level (`mean`).
Conditionals for cycle trend : The if-statements are checking whether the price level has reached a trend extreme and then updating the trend cycle, colour, count, and average accordingly.
Variable col and bar color : The variable `col` is used to define the colour of the bars based on the average price level. If the `show_barcolor` is true, the colour is determined based on the `avg` value.
Alert Conditions : These are conditions that will send alerts to the user when the trend changes. Specifically, the alerts occur when the colour changes from non-green to green (bull trend), from non-red to red (bear trend), or from non-silver to silver (no trend).
Premium PRISM Algorithm [ByteBoost]The ByteBoost PRISM strategy is designed to operate in various market conditions by leveraging the concept of brownian motion theory, which refers to the unpredictable movement of particles suspended in a fluid. This characteristic of random motion can be effectively utilized for analyzing time series data, such as market candles. Based on this notion, we are making the following assumptions regarding the market.
The stock price exhibits characteristics of Brownian motion.
The stock price is distributed in a log-normal pattern.
Volatility remains constant over time.
Options can only be exercised upon expiration.
Risk-free interest does not fluctuate over time.
There are no random or arbitrary opportunities present in the market.
Development Notes
This Strategy was developed with the PineScript language, version 5. This indicator, and most of the descriptions below, were derived largely from the TradingView reference manual. Feedback and suggestions for improvement are more than welcome, as well as recommended input settings and best practices to assist and guide new users effectively.
Features
The ByteBoost PRISM indicator is capable of analyzing multiple aspects of market behavior simultaneously such as:
Detection of potential trend reversals.
Assessment of trend strength and market sentiment.
Identification of stop loss levels.
Discovery of potential entry and exit points.
Ensuring compatibility and effectiveness with other indicators.
Visualization of strategy using historical data.
Customization options available.
Strategy Description
PRISM is an all in one strategy that allows the visualization of entry and exit points as well as the historical performance for every set of parameters. PRISM is a slow paced indicator recommended for the 1h timeframe, because it operates on the belief that markets move in a Brownian motion, for which it leaves enough space and time for the market to decide a trend and catch it at the right time as well as finding appropriate exits given the trend.
PRISM can exist in either an uptrend or downtrend state, but it does not necessarily imply that it reflects the true trend being observed. Instead, it emphasizes capturing significant movements and capitalizing on them by utilizing oscillator levels and exit points calculated based on oversold or overbought values, along with the volatility associated with these movements.
Usage
To use this strategy it is first needed to select a correct set of inputs that correspond to the market you are using, the extra, win difference and oscillator length are dependent on the current market and the average price it manages, so these inputs need to be modified for every pair of assets used.
The long and short tags signify the opportune moment to initiate a new position in the market, whether it's a long or short position, respectively. The exit tags indicate when these positions should be closed. If no exits occur before a new long or short position emerges, it is essential to conclude the existing position and commence a new one in the opposite direction.
Regarding exits, up to two exits can be executed for each movement. The user has the flexibility to determine how these exits are utilized. In the input section, a specific percentage of equity can be selected to be sold during the first exit. If set to 100%, only a single exit will be presented. Otherwise, the remaining equity will be sold during the second exit or at the next trend reversal depending on which action occurs first.
In case the user requires additional exits beyond the initial two, the alternative exits option can be activated in the inputs. This will provide access to supplementary exits, although they may be less advisable compared to the primary exits.
Inputs / Settings
Capital - If using any leverage multiply the amount of money to invest by the leverage, else input the amount to be invested in every trade.
Start date - The date from which the strategy should begin its analysis. Leave unchanged to start from the earliest available date based on your account's plan.
End date - The date until which the strategy should conduct its analysis. Leave unchanged to continue until the current date.
Extra - The minimum gain required in the market to trigger an exit opportunity. It can be a negative number to allow exits at a loss, potentially minimizing losses.
First exit % - If an exit is decided to be partial, it is very likely that there will be a second exit, this parameter determines the percentage of equity to be sold at the first exit. Note that a second exit may not always be applicable.
Win difference - The minimum difference between the entry point and the first exit to determine whether it should be a full exit or a partial exit, as the exit price approaches the entry price, the probability of a trend reversal increases, a full exit is beneficial.
Limit length - Specifies the number of candles to consider for the overbought and oversold market calculation.
Low limit - Sets the minimum value of the limit to decide a short exit.
High limit - Sets the maximum value of the limit to decide a long exit.
Band length - Determines the number of candles to consider for the volatility analysis.
Band height - Sets the multiplication factor of the band to set the maximum and minimum height.
Increment - Determines the rate at which trend reversals occur. A higher value brings the line closer to the current price faster.
Candles exit - Specifies the minimum number of candles required to pass for an exit to become available after initiating a new position.
Oscillator - Enables or disables the main oscillator, which helps determine entry points. Not all assets may benefit from this parameter.
Oscillator length - Specifies the number of candles considered for the entry points oscillator.
Highlighter - Applies a light color between the trend and average price of each bar.
Trend Labels - Displays labels indicating an uptrend or downtrend.
Signal Labels - View the labels indicating a new long or short position.
Exit Labels - Displays the labels indicating exit points.
Candle color - Color codes the inside of the candles with the current signal.

Oscillator points - Adds visual dots to indicate when the oscillator has changed its trend.
Oscillator line - Displays the values of the oscillator to indicate upcoming trend changes.
Alternative exits - Shows additional exits to the ones we recommend, useful if the user missed an exit or needs to have more than two.
Color uptrend - Determines the color scheme for identifying uptrend movements.
Color downtrend - Determines the color scheme for identifying downtrend movements.
Color long - Sets the color scheme for a new long position.
Color short - Sets the color scheme for a new short position.
Color exit - Decides the color scheme for the exit tag and cross shown.
Color alternative exit - Changes the color scheme for the alternative exit cross.
Color oscillator line - Determines the color scheme used for the oscillator line.

ICT Donchian Smart Money Structure (Expo)█ Concept Overview
The Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodology is focused on understanding the actions and implications of the so-called "smart money" - large institutions and professional traders who often influence market movements. Key to this is the concept of market structure and how it can provide insights into potential price moves.
Over time, however, there has been a notable shift in how some traders interpret and apply this methodology. Initially, it was designed with a focus on the fractal nature of markets. Fractals are recurring patterns in price action that are self-similar across different time scales, providing a nuanced and dynamic understanding of market structure.
However, as the ICT methodology has grown in popularity, there has been a drift away from this fractal-based perspective. Instead, many traders have started to focus more on pivot points as their primary tool for understanding market structure.
Pivot points provide static levels of potential support and resistance. While they can be useful in some contexts, relying heavily on them could provide a skewed perspective of market structure. They offer a static, backward-looking view that may not accurately reflect real-time changes in market sentiment or the dynamic nature of markets.
This shift from a fractal-based perspective to a pivot point perspective has significant implications. It can lead traders to misinterpret market structure and potentially make incorrect trading decisions.
To highlight this issue, you've developed a Donchian Structure indicator that mirrors the use of pivot points. The Donchian Channels are formed by the highest high and the lowest low over a certain period, providing another representation of potential market extremes. The fact that the Donchian Structure indicator produces the same results as pivot points underscores the inherent limitations of relying too heavily on these tools.
While the Donchian Structure indicator or pivot points can be useful tools, they should not replace the original, fractal-based perspective of the ICT methodology. These tools can provide a broad overview of market structure but may not capture the intricate dynamics and real-time changes that a fractal-based approach can offer.
It's essential for traders to understand these differences and to apply these tools correctly within the broader context of the ICT methodology and the Smart Money Concept Structure. A well-rounded approach that incorporates fractals, along with other tools and forms of analysis, is likely to provide a more accurate and comprehensive understanding of market structure.
█ Smart Money Concept - Misunderstandings
The Smart Money Concept is a popular concept among traders, and it's based on the idea that the "smart money" - typically large institutional investors, market makers, and professional traders - have superior knowledge or information, and their actions can provide valuable insight for other traders.
One of the biggest misunderstandings with this concept is the belief that tracking smart money activity can guarantee profitable trading.
█ Here are a few common misconceptions:
Following Smart Money Equals Guaranteed Success: Many traders believe that if they can follow the smart money, they will be successful. However, tracking the activity of large institutional investors and other professionals isn't easy, as they use complex strategies, have access to information not available to the public, and often intentionally hide their moves to prevent others from detecting their strategies.
Instantaneous Reaction and Results: Another misconception is that market movements will reflect smart money actions immediately. However, large institutions often slowly accumulate or distribute positions over time to avoid moving the market drastically. As a result, their actions might not produce an immediate noticeable effect on the market.
Smart Money Always Wins: It's not accurate to assume that smart money always makes the right decisions. Even the most experienced institutional investors and professional traders make mistakes, misjudge market conditions, or are affected by unpredictable events.
Smart Money Activity is Transparent: Understanding what constitutes smart money activity can be quite challenging. There are many indicators and metrics that traders use to try and track smart money, such as the COT (Commitments of Traders) reports, Level II market data, block trades, etc. However, these can be difficult to interpret correctly and are often misleading.
Assuming Uniformity Among Smart Money: 'Smart Money' is not a monolithic entity. Different institutional investors and professional traders have different strategies, risk tolerances, and investment horizons. What might be a good trade for a long-term institutional investor might not be a good trade for a short-term professional trader, and vice versa.
█ Market Structure
The Smart Money Concept Structure deals with the interpretation of price action that forms the market structure, focusing on understanding key shifts or changes in the market that may indicate where 'smart money' (large institutional investors and professional traders) might be moving in the market.
█ Three common concepts in this regard are Change of Character (CHoCH), and Shift in Market Structure (SMS), Break of Structure (BMS/BoS).
Change of Character (CHoCH): This refers to a noticeable change in the behavior of price movement, which could suggest that a shift in the market might be about to occur. This might be signaled by a sudden increase in volatility, a break of a trendline, or a change in volume, among other things.
Shift in Market Structure (SMS): This is when the overall structure of the market changes, suggesting a potential new trend. It usually involves a sequence of lower highs and lower lows for a downtrend, or higher highs and higher lows for an uptrend.
Break of Structure (BMS/BoS): This is when a previously defined trend or pattern in the price structure is broken, which may suggest a trend continuation.
A key component of this approach is the use of fractals, which are repeating patterns in price action that can give insights into potential market reversals. They appear at all scales of a price chart, reflecting the self-similar nature of markets.
█ Market Structure - Misunderstandings
One of the biggest misunderstandings about the ICT approach is the over-reliance or incorrect application of pivot points. Pivot points are a popular tool among traders due to their simplicity and easy-to-understand nature. However, when it comes to the Smart Money Concept and trying to follow the steps of professional traders or large institutions, relying heavily on pivot points can create misconceptions and lead to confusion. Here's why:
Delayed and Static Information: Pivot points are inherently backward-looking because they're calculated based on the previous period's data. As such, they may not reflect real-time market dynamics or sudden changes in market sentiment. Furthermore, they present a static view of market structure, delineating pre-defined levels of support and resistance. This static nature can be misleading because markets are fundamentally dynamic and constantly changing due to countless variables.
Inadequate Representation of Market Complexity: Markets are influenced by a myriad of factors, including economic indicators, geopolitical events, institutional actions, and market sentiment, among others. Relying on pivot points alone for reading market structure oversimplifies this complexity and can lead to a myopic understanding of market dynamics.
False Signals and Misinterpretations: Pivot points can often give false signals, especially in volatile markets. Prices might react to these levels temporarily but then continue in the original direction, leading to potential misinterpretation of market structure and sentiment. Also, a trader might wrongly perceive a break of a pivot point as a significant market event, when in fact, it could be due to random price fluctuations or temporary volatility.
Over-simplification: Viewing market structure only through the lens of pivot points simplifies the market to static levels of support and resistance, which can lead to misinterpretation of market dynamics. For instance, a trader might view a break of a pivot point as a definite sign of a trend, when it could just be a temporary price spike.
Ignoring the Fractal Nature of Markets: In the context of the Smart Money Concept Structure, understanding the fractal nature of markets is crucial. Fractals are self-similar patterns that repeat at all scales and provide a more dynamic and nuanced understanding of market structure. They can help traders identify shifts in market sentiment or direction in real-time, providing more relevant and timely information compared to pivot points.
The key takeaway here is not that pivot points should be entirely avoided or that they're useless. They can provide valuable insights and serve as a useful tool in a trader's toolbox when used correctly. However, they should not be the sole or primary method for understanding the market structure, especially in the context of the Smart Money Concept Structure.
█ Fractals
Instead, traders should aim for a comprehensive understanding of markets that incorporates a range of tools and concepts, including but not limited to fractals, order flow, volume analysis, fundamental analysis, and, yes, even pivot points. Fractals offer a more dynamic and nuanced view of the market. They reflect the recursive nature of markets and can provide valuable insights into potential market reversals. Because they appear at all scales of a price chart, they can provide a more holistic and real-time understanding of market structure.
In contrast, the Smart Money Concept Structure, focusing on fractals and comprehensive market analysis, aims to capture a more holistic and real-time view of the market. Fractals, being self-similar patterns that repeat at different scales, offer a dynamic understanding of market structure. As a result, they can help to identify shifts in market sentiment or direction as they happen, providing a more detailed and timely perspective.
Furthermore, a comprehensive market analysis would consider a broader set of factors, including order flow, volume analysis, and fundamental analysis, which could provide additional insights into 'smart money' actions.
█ Donchian Structure
Donchian Channels are a type of indicator used in technical analysis to identify potential price breakouts and trends, and they may also serve as a tool for understanding market structure. The channels are formed by taking the highest high and the lowest low over a certain number of periods, creating an envelope of price action.
Donchian Channels (or pivot points) can be useful tools for providing a general view of market structure, and they may not capture the intricate dynamics associated with the Smart Money Concept Structure. A more nuanced approach, centered on real-time fractals and a comprehensive analysis of various market factors, offers a more accurate understanding of 'smart money' actions and market structure.
█ Here is why Donchian Structure may be misleading:
Lack of Nuance: Donchian Channels, like pivot points, provide a simplified view of market structure. They don't take into account the nuanced behaviors of price action or the complex dynamics between buyers and sellers that can be critical in the Smart Money Concept Structure.
Limited Insights into 'Smart Money' Actions: While Donchian Channels can highlight potential breakout points and trends, they don't necessarily provide insights into the actions of 'smart money'. These large institutional traders often use sophisticated strategies that can't be easily inferred from price action alone.
█ Indicator Overview
We have built this Donchian Structure indicator to show that it returns the same results as using pivot points. The Donchian Structure indicator can be a useful tool for market analysis. However, it should not be seen as a direct replacement or equivalent to the original Smart Money concept, nor should any indicator based on pivot points. The indicator highlights the importance of understanding what kind of trading tools we use and how they can affect our decisions.
The Donchian Structure Indicator displays CHoCH, SMS, BoS/BMS, as well as premium and discount areas. This indicator plots everything in real-time and allows for easy backtesting on any market and timeframe. A unique candle coloring has been added to make it more engaging and visually appealing when identifying new trading setups and strategies. This candle coloring is "leading," meaning it can signal a structural change before it actually happens, giving traders ample time to plan their next trade accordingly.
█ How to use
The indicator is great for traders who want to simplify their view on the market structure and easily backtest Smart Money Concept Strategies. The added candle coloring function serves as a heads-up for structure change or can be used as trend confirmation. This new candle coloring feature can generate many new Smart Money Concepts strategies.
█ Features
Market Structure
The market structure is based on the Donchian channel, to which we have added what we call 'Structure Response'. This addition makes the indicator more useful, especially in trending markets. The core concept involves traders buying at a discount and selling or shorting at a premium, depending on the order flow. Structure response enables traders to determine the order flow more clearly. Consequently, more trading opportunities will appear in trending markets.
Structure Candles
Structure Candles highlight the current order flow and are significantly more responsive to structural changes. They can provide traders with a heads-up before a break in structure occurs

Damage Indicator by Scipio ProScipio Pro's Damage Indicator detects strong momentum on tops and bottoms. It is intended for swing trading.
The script analyzes both recent and less-recent price action and performs candle stick analysis. It also uses SDs and multiple Bollinger Bands to find dynamic levels for entries.
A Bears Damaged signal emerges whenever there is convincing proof of strength at a bottom. Often, when the market reverses quickly, traders are caught offside and are forced to buy higher. The reverse goes for Bulls Damaged signals, which mean there is convincing proof of bearish strength at a (local?) top.
Whether the move gets legs depends in large part on the structure in which the show of momentum takes place. It is sensible to wonder after each signal whether the market structure (and other relevant context such as the majority of cash having been sidelined) dictates that risk-reward is skewed to the upside or to the downside. If, for example, a Bears Damaged signal emerges on the daily and risk-reward on the weekly is skewed to the upside, go 4x larger (again, just an example). If, on the other hand, the same signal emerges on the daily while the risk-reward is skewed to the downside on the weekly, bet much smaller and tighten your stop-loss. For best results, I suggest you always check one timeframe higher for your long-term risk-reward bias. (No financial advice, of course.)
Under Settings you'll find the so-called Noise Protection , which is switched "on" by default. We recommend you keep this switched on. Noise Protection ensures you do not see Damage signals on timeframes lower than the 4 hour. After all, chasing momentum on low timeframes is a losing game. The amount of noise increases exponentially as you move lower down the timeframes. Again, this indicator is for swing trades. Don't use it for scalping.
It should be useful for all assets, but is of course more useful on some than on others. As with all indicators, signals tend to be more meaningful if the asset in question is at least somewhat liquid, for instance.
As always, use at your own risk. Using indicators is no substitute for using one's brain.
Excess Invites Punishment (EIP) by Scipio ProScipio Pro's EIP is a reversal indicator. It is based on two types of evidence.
1) Proof of Fatigue -- The move that triggers the signal is losing momentum
2) Proof of Excess -- The move that triggers the signal is excessive
If both are the case, we get a signal.
The script uses standard deviations and Bollinger Bands for measuring excess and the ATR for the Breakout Continuation Protection (see below). For fatigue, the EIP detects divergences from indicators like OBV, MACD, RSI and more. It expresses these with a number. For example, if the EIP detects 9 bullish divergences, it prints the number 9 below the corresponding candle.
Hesitant Buy and Hesitant Sell mean there may have been a breakout recently, as measured with the ATR, meaning there is an increased likelihood of continuation. These can provide good buys or sells but more caution is warranted. You can adjust the so-called Breakout Continuation Protection in Settings. Doing so may lead to either more or less "hesitant" signals.
The signals don't repaint. Of course, the divergences get recalculated as the market evolves, as they should. But signals like Buy, Sell, Hesitant Buy, and Hesitant Sell never repaint.
The EIP is useful on many different time-frames and with many different assets, be they in stocks or crypto. The images below show results from BTC, MATIC, and S&P 500 over multiple years, both on small and large time-frames.
As always, use at your own risk. Using indicators is no substitute for using one's brain.
Tradveller PivotA pivot strategy is a trading technique that involves identifying key price levels, called pivot points, where a financial instrument is likely to experience a change in direction. Pivot points serve as potential support and resistance levels, which can help traders make informed decisions on when to enter or exit positions, set stop-loss or take-profit orders, and gauge market sentiment.
The pivot point itself is calculated using the high, low, and closing prices of the previous trading period (usually daily, but it can be applied to any timeframe). Once the pivot point is determined, additional support and resistance levels can be calculated around it. There are several methods to calculate these levels, with the most common being the classic, Woodie's, Camarilla, and Fibonacci methods.
A pivot strategy usually involves the following steps:
Calculate the pivot point and support and resistance levels using one of the methods mentioned above.
Observe the market price action and identify if the price is trading above or below the pivot point. If the price is above the pivot point, it indicates bullish sentiment, while trading below the pivot point suggests bearish sentiment.
Use the support and resistance levels to identify potential entry and exit points. Traders might consider buying when the price approaches a support level and selling when it approaches a resistance level.
Set stop-loss orders and take-profit targets based on the calculated levels, ensuring proper risk management.
Pivot strategies can be used in various market conditions and timeframes, and they often work well in combination with other technical analysis tools and indicators. However, like any trading strategy, it's essential to use proper risk management techniques and understand that no strategy guarantees success in every trade.
Jesse Livermore Strategy [Buy & Sell]Jesse Livermore was a famous trader who made a fortune in the early 20th century through his unique approach to trading.
While he did not leave behind a single, specific trading strategy that is attributed to him, I have tried to reproduce one.
His trading strategy was based on understanding market trends and sentiment, and he used several technical indicators to identify potential entry and exit points.
Some of the indicators he used include:
Price Action:
Jesse Livermore relied heavily on price action to make trading decisions.
He believed that the price itself was the best indicator of market sentiment, and that by analyzing the price movement, he could identify trends and market behavior.
Volume:
Livermore also used volume to confirm price movements.
He believed that a rise in volume along with a price increase indicated a strong bullish trend, while a decrease in volume with a price increase indicated a weak trend.
Pivot Points:
Another key component of Jesse Livermore's trading strategy was pivot points.
He used pivot points to identify potential support and resistance levels in the market, which he then used to identify potential entry and exit points.
Jesse Livermore outlined a simple trading system: wait for pivotal points before entering a trade.
When the points come into play, trade them using a buffer, trading in the direction of the overall market.
Let the price dictate your actions and stay with profitable trades until there is good reason to exit the trade.
The one I have tried to reproduce it's based on Pivot High and Low looking back 5 Days, and the average price oscillator.
When the price is bellow the support defined line it's time to Buy ( Long Position ), when the Price line is over the Resistance Line it's time to Sell ( Short Position )
This indicator has to be checked, and tried into a Real-Time context, so using the Replay functionality of TradingView is the best way to see and understand how Signals comes
(NB: look back into the chart without Replay should give you wrong Buy/Sell information)
The Indicator can be used on every TimeFrames, but the better ones are 5min - 15min.
I will add the possibility to choose the TimeFrames value for Pivot High and Low.
I will create a version with Alerts for Buy and Sell and the possibility to integrate it with "3commas Bot" where the best deal can be to set a TP to 1% for each Long or Short Entry.
Let's try it and comment for doubts or questions.
