Normalized EMA Cycle (NEC)Normalized EMA Cycle (NEC)
The Normalized EMA Cycle (NEC) is a versatile momentum and trend reversal tool designed to detect high-probability turning points and gauge the strength of price cycles.
It combines fast and slow Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), dynamic normalization, and adaptive transparency to create clear, intuitive reversal signals on the chart.
🔹 How It Works
EMA Differencing
The NEC calculates the difference between a fast EMA and a slower EMA:
Fast EMA Length (default 6) captures short-term momentum.
Slow EMA Length (default 16) tracks broader trends.
The slope of this difference identifies accelerating or decelerating momentum.
Normalization to 0–100 Scale
The raw EMA difference is scaled relative to the recent Alpha Period range (default 6 bars).
This transforms the value into a normalized oscillator ranging between 0 and 100.
A 3-period Hull Moving Average (HMA) smooths this series to reduce noise.
Overbought and Oversold Thresholds
By default:
Overbought Level: 75
Oversold Level: 25
Crossovers of these levels are used to detect potential reversals.
Adaptive Alpha Adjustment
The normalized value is transformed into an “Alpha Schaff” line, dynamically shifting between price and normalized cycles.
This helps the model adjust to different volatility regimes.
Trend Reversal Logic
Bullish Reversal:
Normalized oscillator crosses above the Oversold Level.
EMA difference slope is positive.
Bearish Reversal:
Normalized oscillator crosses below the Overbought Level.
EMA difference slope is negative.
Additional confirmation comes when price crosses the Alpha Schaff line in the direction of momentum.
Dynamic Confidence Visualization
The indicator calculates a trend confidence score based on the normalized separation of the EMAs.
The transparency of reversal markers dynamically adjusts:
Strong trends = more opaque signals
Weak trends = more transparent signals
🔹 How to Use
✅ Entries
Long Signal: Aqua upward label appears below a bar.
Conditions:
Bullish reversal or price crossing above Alpha Schaff
Normalized slope is rising
Short Signal: Fuchsia downward label appears above a bar.
Conditions:
Bearish reversal or price crossing below Alpha Schaff
Normalized slope is falling
✅ Trend Strength
The less transparent the signal marker, the more significant the trend.
✅ Customization
Use the inputs to fine-tune sensitivity:
Shorter EMAs: Faster signals
Longer EMAs: Smoother trends
Alpha Period: Adjusts the lookback range for normalization
🟢 Best Practices
NEC is best used in combination with other trend confirmation tools (e.g., price structure, volume, or higher timeframe EMAs).
Avoid relying on signals in extremely low-volume or choppy ranges.

Swing High/Low with Liquidity Sweeps🧠 Overview
This indicator identifies swing highs and swing lows based on user-defined candle lengths and checks for liquidity sweeps—situations where the price breaks a previous swing level but then closes back inside, indicating a potential false breakout or stop hunt. It also supports visual labeling and alerts for these events.
⚙️ Inputs
Swing Length (must be odd number ≥ 3):
Determines how many candles are used to identify swing highs/lows. The central candle must be higher or lower than all neighbors within the range.
Example: If swingLength = 5, the central candle must be higher/lower than the 2 candles on both sides.
Sweep Lookback (bars):
Defines how many bars to look back for possible liquidity sweeps.
Show Swing Labels (checkbox):
Optionally display labels on the chart when a swing high or low is detected.
Show Sweep Labels (checkbox):
Optionally display labels on the chart when a liquidity sweep occurs.
🕯️ Swing Detection Logic
A Swing High is detected when the high of the central candle is greater than the highs of all candles around it (as per the defined length).
A Swing Low is detected when the low of the central candle is lower than the lows of surrounding candles.
Swing labels are placed slightly above (for highs) or below (for lows) the candle.
💧 Liquidity Sweep Logic
A Sweep High is triggered if:
The current high breaks above a previously detected swing high,
And then the candle closes below that swing high,
Within the configured lookback window.
A Sweep Low is triggered if:
The current low breaks below a previous swing low,
And then closes above it,
Within the lookback window.
These are often seen as stop hunts or fake breakouts.
🔔 Alerts
Sweep High Alert: Triggered when a sweep above a swing high occurs.
Sweep Low Alert: Triggered when a sweep below a swing low occurs.
You can use these to set up TradingView alerts to notify you of potential liquidity grabs.
📊 Use Cases
Identifying market structure shifts.
Spotting fake breakouts and potential reversals.
Assisting in smart money concepts and liquidity-based trading.
Supporting entry timing in trend continuation or reversal strategies.
Simple RSIThe Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. It helps traders identify overbought or oversold conditions in the market.
This script plots the 14-period RSI, which is one of the most commonly used settings.
How It Works:
The RSI ranges from 0 to 100.
Values above 70 suggest the asset may be overbought (a potential sell area).
Values below 30 suggest the asset may be oversold (a potential buy area).
LaCrazy Smash CandleLaCrazy Smash Candle highlights powerful engulfing candles that signal potential momentum reversals or breakout continuation.
Smash Long: The candle's low touches or dips below the prior candle's low, then closes above the previous high with a strong body (minimum % of the candle range).
Smash Short: The candle's high touches or exceeds the prior high, then closes below the previous low with a strong body.
These “Smash” moves often occur at key pivot points, signaling decisive rejections or trend continuation. Customize the body strength filter to match your strategy needs.
Leveraged Liquidation ZonesOVERVIEW
This indicator estimates potential liquidation zones based on leveraged positions (25x, 50x, 75x, 100x). It visually displays upper and lower bounds for each leverage tier, allowing traders to infer areas where the market might be seeking liquidity.
CONCEPTS
In leveraged markets, especially crypto derivatives, price often moves towards zones of high liquidation potential — areas where traders using high leverage are likely to be stopped out. These zones represent concentrations of liquidity that can serve as targets for price movement.
This script models simplified liquidation areas by calculating the price range within which positions using specific leverage levels would be at risk, assuming no maintenance margin and using the previous candle close as a reference.
FEATURES
Visual zones for 25x, 50x, 75x, and 100x leverage levels.
Customizable visibility and colors for each leverage tier.
Real-time zone calculation based on the previous candle close.
Simple and clean design to overlay directly on price action.
USAGE
Use this tool to identify areas of liquidity accumulation or potential price magnet zones. High-leverage liquidations often lead to volatile movements when triggered, so tracking these zones can help anticipate breakout or reversal behavior.
You can toggle individual leverage levels via the settings panel, and adjust color transparency to suit your chart theme. This tool is most effective when combined with volume spikes, order book analysis, or high-frequency behavior.
Price Depth Analysis to the MAHello Traders! Today, I bring you an indicator that can greatly assist you in your trading. This indicator aims to analyze the Expansion and Contraction process of the price in relation to a moving average. We refer to "Expansion" when the price moves away from the moving average; a significant expansion could signal that the asset is in a strong trend. On the other hand, when we refer to "Contraction", it's when the price approaches or returns to the moving average. A contraction could signal that the asset is losing momentum and might be preparing for a trend change or consolidation.
To use the indicator, the first thing you need to do is define the type of analysis you want to perform (from the indicator settings) whether you want to evaluate prices above the moving average or below. You should also select the type of moving average and its period.
The indicator will search for the maximum distance in all the chart bars, which will be represented with a yellow label.
From that value, the indicator will generate a certain number of proportional levels (configurable up to 20) and will count all the bars that reached each level. This will be represented in a table showing both the number of bars that reached each range and the percentage in relation to the total bars of all ranges.
Additionally, there's the possibility to view the ranges directly for the current price, providing a good reference.
>> Alerts:
The indicator comes with alerts that notify traders about specific price movements in relation to a moving average (MA). These alerts are triggered when the price enters different ranges, either above or below the MA.
>> Settings:
- Type of Analysis: Users can choose to analyze the price either above or below the MA.
- Length of the moving average: Length of the MA.
- Source of the moving average: Source to calculate the MA (e.g., close, open).
- Type of moving average: Type of MA (SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, HMA).
- Show Moving Average: Option to display or hide the MA on the chart.
- Number of levels: Number of levels or ranges to categorize the distance between the price and the MA.
- Number of decimals: Number of decimals to display in labels and tables.
- Show Ranges: Option to display or hide the ranges on the chart.
- Extend Range: Extension of the ranges into future bars.
- Range Fill Transparency: Transparency of the range fill.
>> Potential Utility of the Indicator:
- Entry and Exit Optimization:
By understanding the percentages of each range, traders can identify optimal levels to enter or exit a trade, maximizing profits and minimizing losses.
- Risk Management:
Range percentages can help determine market volatility. A range with a high percentage indicates greater volatility, which can be useful for setting wider stop losses or adjusting position size.
- Overbought and Oversold Zone Identification:
If a price is at the upper or lower extreme of its percentage range, it may indicate overbought or oversold conditions, respectively. These zones can be opportunities for counter-trend trades.
- Momentum Assessment:
A rapid change in range percentages can indicate strong momentum in a particular direction. Traders can use this information to ride the momentum wave or prepare for a potential reversal.
- False Signal Filtering:
By combining range percentage knowledge with other indicators, traders can filter out signals that might be less reliable, thus improving trade accuracy.
- Strategic Planning:
Knowing range percentages allows traders to adapt their strategies according to market conditions. For instance, in a market with narrow ranges and low percentages, they might opt for range strategies. In markets with wide ranges and high percentages, they might look for trend strategies.
- Trend Strength Evaluation:
If range percentages show that the price consistently stays at one end of the range, this may signal a strong and sustained trend.
- Improved Trading Discipline:
By basing trading decisions on quantitative data like range percentages, traders can trade more objectively and disciplined, avoiding impulsive or emotion-based decisions.
>> Future Indicator Update:
- In future versions, we plan to incorporate a detailed analysis based on the historical behavior of candles after the price enters a specific range. For instance, if after an upward movement the price enters a certain range and historically, the next candle tends to be bearish in a high percentage of occasions, this information will be highlighted and presented clearly to the user. The idea behind this addition is to provide traders with a statistical edge, allowing them to anticipate potential market movements with greater accuracy. Moreover, this information could be used to seek trading opportunities in smaller timeframes, aligning the trade direction based on the probability of this mentioned candle.
>> Conclusions:
- In summary, a detailed understanding of each range's percentages in an indicator provides traders with a valuable tool to analyze the market, make informed decisions, and enhance their trading. By grasping the significance of these percentages, traders can adapt their strategies and techniques to fully leverage the opportunities the market presents.
Ticker Pulse Meter + Fear EKG StrategyDescription
The Ticker Pulse Meter + Fear EKG Strategy is a technical analysis tool designed to identify potential entry and exit points for long positions based on price action relative to historical ranges. It combines two proprietary indicators: the Ticker Pulse Meter (TPM), which measures price positioning within short- and long-term ranges, and the Fear EKG, a VIX-inspired oscillator that detects extreme market conditions. The strategy is non-repainting, ensuring signals are generated only on confirmed bars to avoid false positives. Visual enhancements, such as optional moving averages and Bollinger Bands, provide additional context but are not core to the strategy's logic. This script is suitable for traders seeking a systematic approach to capturing momentum and mean-reversion opportunities.
How It Works
The strategy evaluates price action using two key metrics:
Ticker Pulse Meter (TPM): Measures the current price's position within short- and long-term price ranges to identify momentum or overextension.
Fear EKG: Detects extreme selling pressure (akin to "irrational selling") by analyzing price behavior relative to historical lows, inspired by volatility-based oscillators.
Entry signals are generated when specific conditions align, indicating potential buying opportunities. Exits are triggered based on predefined thresholds or partial position closures to manage risk. The strategy supports customizable lookback periods, thresholds, and exit percentages, allowing flexibility across different markets and timeframes. Visual cues, such as entry/exit dots and a position table, enhance usability, while optional overlays like moving averages and Bollinger Bands provide additional chart context.
Calculation Overview
Price Range Calculations:
Short-Term Range: Uses the lowest low (min_price_short) and highest high (max_price_short) over a user-defined short lookback period (lookback_short, default 50 bars).
Long-Term Range: Uses the lowest low (min_price_long) and highest high (max_price_long) over a user-defined long lookback period (lookback_long, default 200 bars).
Percentage Metrics:
pct_above_short: Percentage of the current close above the short-term range.
pct_above_long: Percentage of the current close above the long-term range.
Combined metrics (pct_above_long_above_short, pct_below_long_below_short) normalize price action for signal generation.
Signal Generation:
Long Entry (TPM): Triggered when pct_above_long_above_short crosses above a user-defined threshold (entryThresholdhigh, default 20) and pct_below_long_below_short is below a low threshold (entryThresholdlow, default 40).
Long Entry (Fear EKG): Triggered when pct_below_long_below_short crosses under an extreme threshold (orangeEntryThreshold, default 95), indicating potential oversold conditions.
Long Exit: Triggered when pct_above_long_above_short crosses under a profit-taking level (profitTake, default 95). Partial exits are supported via a user-defined percentage (exitAmt, default 50%).
Non-Repainting Logic: Signals are calculated using data from the previous bar ( ) and only plotted on confirmed bars (barstate.isconfirmed), ensuring reliability.
Visual Enhancements:
Optional moving averages (SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, or SMMA) and Bollinger Bands can be enabled for trend context.
A position table displays real-time metrics, including open positions, Fear EKG, and Ticker Pulse values.
Background highlights mark periods of high selling pressure.
Entry Rules
Long Entry:
TPM Signal: Occurs when the price shows strength relative to both short- and long-term ranges, as defined by pct_above_long_above_short crossing above entryThresholdhigh and pct_below_long_below_short below entryThresholdlow.
Fear EKG Signal: Triggered by extreme selling pressure, when pct_below_long_below_short crosses under orangeEntryThreshold. This signal is optional and can be toggled via enable_yellow_signals.
Entries are executed only on confirmed bars to prevent repainting.
Exit Rules
Long Exit: Triggered when pct_above_long_above_short crosses under profitTake.
Partial exits are supported, with the strategy closing a user-defined percentage of the position (exitAmt) up to four times per position (exit_count limit).
Exits can be disabled or adjusted via enable_short_signal and exitPercentage settings.
Inputs
Backtest Start Date: Defines the start of the backtesting period (default: Jan 1, 2017).
Lookback Periods: Short (lookback_short, default 50) and long (lookback_long, default 200) periods for range calculations.
Resolution: Timeframe for price data (default: Daily).
Entry/Exit Thresholds:
entryThresholdhigh (default 20): Threshold for TPM entry.
entryThresholdlow (default 40): Secondary condition for TPM entry.
orangeEntryThreshold (default 95): Threshold for Fear EKG entry.
profitTake (default 95): Exit threshold.
exitAmt (default 50%): Percentage of position to exit.
Visual Options: Toggle for moving averages and Bollinger Bands, with customizable types and lengths.
Notes
The strategy is designed to work across various timeframes and assets, with data sourced from user-selected resolutions (i_res).
Alerts are included for long entry and exit signals, facilitating integration with TradingView's alert system.
The script avoids repainting by using confirmed bar data and shifted calculations ( ).
Visual elements (e.g., SMA, Bollinger Bands) are inspired by standard Pine Script practices and are optional, not integral to the core logic.
Usage
Apply the script to a chart, adjust input settings to suit your trading style, and use the visual cues (entry/exit dots, position table) to monitor signals. Enable alerts for real-time notifications.
Designed to work best on Daily timeframe.
Oscillator Volume Profile [Trendoscope®]The Oscillator Volume Profile indicator is designed to construct a volume profile based on predefined oscillator levels. It integrates volume data with oscillator readings to offer a unique perspective on market dynamics.
🎲 Selectable Oscillators:
Users can select from an array of oscillator options for the basis of the volume profile, including:
Relative Strength Index (RSI)
Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO)
Center of Gravity (COG)
Money Flow Index (MFI)
Rate of Change (ROC)
Commodity Channel Index (CCI)
Stochastic Oscillator (Stoch)
True Strength Index (TSI)
Williams %R (WPR)
The length parameters - Length, Fast Length, Slow Length allows users to define the period over which the chosen oscillator is calculated, tailoring the sensitivity of the indicator to their trading strategy.
🎲 Dynamic Overbought/Oversold Ranges:
This indicator enhances traditional concepts by introducing dynamic overbought and oversold levels. These adaptable thresholds are calculated using various methods, including:
🎯 Highest/Lowest Range Method : This method establishes the range based on the highest and lowest values of the oscillator within the last N bars.
🎯 Moving Average Range Method : The range is derived from a moving average of the oscillator, providing a smoothed threshold that reflects more recent market conditions.
In addition to these methods, the indicator incorporates a unique 'Sticky Border' feature:
🎯 Sticky Border: With this option enabled, the dynamic ranges maintain their levels until the oscillator breaks out of the range. Once a breakout occurs, the levels are recalculated and updated. This mechanism ensures that the borders remain consistent and relevant, only adjusting to significant market movements that warrant a recalculation.
Users can select their preferred method for determining dynamic ranges, allowing for a customized approach that aligns with their analysis and trading strategy. The sticky border feature further refines this functionality, offering continuity until a decisive market move occurs.
🎲 Volume Profile Calculation Parameters:
🎯 Trend Filter: The indicator provides a versatile trend filter with four selectable options:
Uptrend: The volume profile is calculated when the oscillator indicates an uptrend.
Downtrend: The volume profile is calculated when the oscillator indicates a downtrend.
Any: The volume profile is calculated regardless of the trend.
External: Users can input values from an external indicator. The volume profile is then calculated only when the external indicator's value is non-zero, integrating external analysis into the volume profile construction.
🎯 Precision: Users have the option to define the precision for calculating the volume profile, which is crucial due to the varying scales of different oscillators (e.g., some oscillators range from 0 to 100, while others from -1 to 1). Selecting an appropriate precision ensures that the volume profile is accurately aligned with the minimal price range significant to the chosen oscillator. This setting requires user intervention for optimal configuration, as automatic calculation is not feasible due to the diverse nature of oscillator ranges.
🎯 Number of Bars: Users can select a specific number of bars for volume profile calculation, or opt to include all available historical bars for a comprehensive profile.
🎲 Selecting the right precision:
Users must select the right precision based on their choice of indicator. For example, RSI values range from 0-100. Hence, the default precision of 1 work fine on RSI as the volume profiles are plotted from 0 to 100 at the interval of 0.1
But, the default precision of 1 will not be ok on TSI because TSI values range from -1 to 1. Hence, using 1 as precision will result in very less volume profile lines as shown below.
Due to this, it is necessary to increase the precision for oscillators such as TSI where the range between highest and lowest value is far less. Once we set the precision to 2, we can see more appropriate volume profile division.
🎲 Note of thanks:
This publication uses polyline feature for drawing volume profiles. The advantage of using polyline is that we can overcome max 500 lines issue that we face by using the regular line objects. More details of polyline can be found in the tradingview blog post
Further, using polyline for display of volume profiles is inspired by the publications of fikira and KioseffTrading
Non-Psychological Levels🟩 Non-Psychological Levels is a structural analysis tool that segments price action into objective ranges, identifying Broken and Unbroken levels without relying on psychological or time-based assumptions. By emphasizing mechanically derived price behavior, it provides traders with a clear framework for analyzing support and resistance in a consistent and unbiased manner across various market conditions.
This indicator introduces a new approach to understanding market structure by focusing on price movement within defined segments, free from behavioral patterns, round numbers, or specific time intervals. While the indicator is time-agnostic in design, it works within the natural time progression of the chart, ensuring that segmentation aligns with the inherent structure of price movement. Broken levels, where price has breached a structural boundary, and Unbroken levels, which remain intact, are visualized with horizontal lines. These structural zones are complemented by dynamically boxed segments that contextualize both historical and ongoing price behavior.
By offering an objective perspective, the Non-Psychological Levels indicator complements psychology-based tools, helping traders explore market dynamics from multiple angles. When structural levels align with psychological zones, they reinforce critical price areas; when they differ, they provide opportunities to analyze price behavior from an alternative lens. This indicator is designed as both an educational framework and a practical tool, encouraging a deeper understanding of structural price behavior in technical analysis.
⭕ THEORY AND CONCEPT ⭕
The Non-Psychological Levels indicator is grounded in the principle of analyzing price behavior without reliance on psychological assumptions or time-based factors. Its primary purpose is to provide a structural framework for identifying support and resistance levels by focusing solely on price movement within mechanically defined segments. By removing external influences such as sentiment, time intervals, or market sessions, the indicator offers an unbiased lens through which traders can observe price dynamics.
Non-psychology, as defined here, refers to an approach that excludes behavioral and emotional patterns—like fear, greed, or herd mentality—from price analysis. Traditional tools often depend on these patterns to identify zones such as pivots or Fibonacci retracements, but these methods can be inconsistent in volatile markets. In contrast, the Non-Psychological Levels indicator focuses entirely on what price is doing, free from assumptions about trader behavior or external time constraints.
The indicator’s time-agnostic and mechanically driven design segments price action into consistent ranges, highlighting "Broken" levels (where price breaches structural boundaries) and "Unbroken" levels (where price holds). These structural zones remain unaffected by subjective or external influences, ensuring clarity and consistency across different markets and timeframes. By doing so, the indicator reveals a pure view of price structure, independent of psychological biases.
Importantly, the Non-Psychological Levels indicator is not intended to replace psychology-based tools but to complement them. When its structural levels align with psychological zones like round numbers or session highs/lows, the significance of these areas is reinforced. Conversely, when the levels differ, the contrast provides traders with alternative insights into market dynamics. This dual perspective—blending mechanical objectivity with behavioral analysis—enhances the depth and flexibility of market evaluation.
The following principles outline the theoretical foundation of the indicator and its unique contribution to structural price analysis:
Time-Agnostic Design : The indicator avoids reliance on time-based factors like daily opens, session intervals, or specific events. Instead, it segments price action using bar indexes, ensuring that structural levels are identified independently of external time variables. While the x-axis of a chart inherently represents time, this indicator abstracts away its influence, allowing traders to focus purely on price movement without the bias of temporal context.
Mechanical and Neutral Framework : Every calculation within the indicator is predetermined by a set of mechanical rules, ensuring no subjective input or interpretation affects the results. This objectivity guarantees that levels are derived solely from observed price behavior, providing a reliable framework that traders can trust to remain consistent across different assets, timeframes, and market conditions.
Broken and Unbroken Levels : Broken levels represent zones where price has breached a structural boundary, while Unbroken levels highlight areas where price has consistently respected its range. This distinction provides a clear and systematic method for identifying key support and resistance levels, offering insights into where future price interactions are most likely to occur.
Neutral Price Behavior : By dividing price action into equal segments, the indicator removes the influence of external factors like trader sentiment or psychological expectations. Each segment independently determines significant levels based purely on price action, enabling a structural view of the market that abstracts away behavioral or emotional biases.
Complement to Psychological Tools : While the indicator itself avoids behavioral assumptions, its levels can align with psychological zones like round numbers, pivots, or Fibonacci levels. When these structural and psychological levels overlap, it reinforces the importance of key areas, while divergences offer opportunities to examine price behavior from a new perspective.
Educational Value : The indicator encourages traders to explore the contrast between structural and psychological analysis. By introducing a framework that isolates price behavior from external influences, it challenges traditional methods of technical analysis, fostering deeper insights into market structure and behavior.
🔍 UNDERSTANDING STRUCTURAL LEVELS 🔍
The Non-Psychological Levels indicator offers a straightforward yet powerful way to understand market structure by segmenting price action into mechanically defined ranges. This segmentation highlights two key elements: "Broken" levels, where price has breached structural boundaries, and "Unbroken" levels, which remain intact and respected by price action. Together, these components create a framework for identifying potential areas of support and resistance.
Broken Levels : These are structural boundaries that price has surpassed, indicating areas where previous support or resistance failed. Broken levels often signal transitions in price behavior, such as shifts in momentum or the start of trending movements. They provide insight into zones where price has already tested and moved beyond.
Unbroken Levels : These levels remain intact within a given price segment, marking areas where price has consistently respected boundaries. Unbroken levels are particularly useful for identifying potential reversal points or zones of continued support or resistance. Their persistence across price action often makes them reliable indicators of market structure.
The visual segmentation of price action into distinct ranges allows traders to observe how price transitions between structural zones. For example:
- Clusters of Unbroken levels near the current price may suggest strong support or resistance, offering areas of interest for reversals or breakouts.
- Gaps between Unbroken levels highlight areas of price inefficiency or low interaction, which may become significant if revisited.
By focusing solely on structural price behavior, the Non-Psychological Levels indicator enables traders to analyze price independently of time or psychological factors. This makes it a valuable tool for understanding price dynamics objectively, whether used on its own or alongside other indicators.
🛠️ SETTINGS 🛠️
The Non-Psychological Levels indicator offers various customizable settings to help users tailor its visualization to their specific trading style and market conditions. These settings allow adjustments to sensitivity, level projection, and the source of price calculations (e.g., wicks or closing prices). Below, we outline each setting and its impact on the chart, along with examples to illustrate their functionality.
Custom Settings
Sensitivity : This setting adjusts the balance between detailed and broader structural levels by controlling the number of segments. Higher values result in more segments, revealing finer price levels, while lower values consolidate segments to highlight major price movements.
Source : Allows the user to choose between 'Wick' or 'Close' for detecting levels. Selecting 'Wick' emphasizes the absolute highs and lows of price action, while 'Close' focuses on closing prices within each segment.
Level Labels : Configures the visual representation of price levels, allowing users to toggle between price values, symbols (▲ ▼), or disabling labels altogether. This setting ensures clarity in how Broken and Unbroken levels are displayed on the chart.
Unbroken Levels : - - - Users can customize the colors and label styles for Unbroken levels, which highlight areas where price has respected structural boundaries.
Broken Levels : -|- Similar to Unbroken levels, users can specify the visual appearance of Broken levels, including color customization for Broken highs and lows. These settings help distinguish areas where price has breached a structural boundary.
Projection Options : This setting allows users to control how broken and unbroken levels are visually extended on the chart. The Future option projects lines forward to the right of the current price, showing potential future relevance of levels. The All option extends lines both forward and backward, providing a comprehensive view of how levels align with historical and potential future price action. The None option disables projections, keeping the chart focused solely on current segment levels without any extensions.
Segments : Includes options for customizing the segment visualization:
- Live Segment : Toggles the display of a highlighted box representing the current developing segment, helping users focus on ongoing price action.
- Boxes : Allows users to display filled boxes around each segment for additional visual emphasis.
- Segment Colors : Users can define separate colors for support (lower) and resistance (upper) segments, making it easier to interpret directional trends.
- Boundaries : Enables or disables vertical lines to mark segment boundaries, providing a clearer view of structural divisions.
Repaint : This setting allows users to enable or disable triangle labels within the live segment. When enabled, the triangles dynamically update to reflect real-time price behavior during the live bar but will repaint until the bar is fully confirmed. Disabling this option prevents the triangles from appearing during the live bar, reducing potential confusion as they may otherwise flash on and off during price updates. This setting ensures users can choose their preferred visualization while maintaining clarity in real-time analysis.
Color Settings : Offers extensive customization for all visual elements, including Broken and Unbroken levels, segment boundaries, and live segments. These settings ensure the indicator can adapt to individual preferences for chart readability.
🖼️ CHART EXAMPLES 🖼️
The following chart examples illustrate different configurations and features of the Non-Psychological Levels indicator. These examples highlight how the indicator’s settings influence the visualization of structural price behavior, helping traders understand its functionality in various scenarios.
Broken and Unbroken Levels : Orange prices are Broken HIghs. Blue prices are Broken Lows. Green and Red are Unbroken.
Boundaries : Enable Boundaries to visualize segments.
High Sensitivity Setting : A high sensitivity setting produces fewer segments and levels, emphasizing broader price ranges and major structural zones. This configuration is better suited for higher timeframes or identifying overarching trends.
Low Sensitivity Setting : A low sensitivity setting results in a greater number of segments and levels, offering a granular view of price structure. This configuration is ideal for analyzing detailed price movements on lower timeframes.
Live Segment with Triangles Enabled : This example shows the live segment box with triangle labels enabled. These triangles update dynamically during the live bar but may repaint until the bar is confirmed, helping traders observe real-time price behavior.
Broken and Unbroken Levels : This example highlights Broken levels (where price has breached structural boundaries and are drawn through subsequent price action) and Unbroken levels (where price has respected structural boundaries). These distinctions visually identify areas of potential support and resistance.
Broken and Unbroken Levels with Projection: All : This example demonstrates the "Project All" feature, where broken and unbroken levels are extended both forward and backward on the chart. This visualization highlights historical and potential future support and resistance zones, helping traders better understand how price interacts with these structural levels over time.
Segment Boxes with Boundaries : Filled boxes around individual segments visually distinguish each price interval, offering clarity in observing structural price transitions.
📊 SUMMARY 📊
The Non-Psychological Levels indicator provides a unique framework for analyzing structural price behavior through the identification of Broken and Unbroken levels. These levels act as a mechanical representation of support and resistance, independent of psychological biases or time-based factors. By focusing purely on price movement within defined segments, the indicator offers a neutral and consistent approach to understanding market dynamics.
This method complements traditional tools by providing an unbiased perspective. When structural levels align with psychological zones—such as round numbers or session-based highs and lows—they reinforce the significance of these areas as key price zones. When they diverge, the indicator introduces an alternative view, prompting further exploration of price behavior. This dual perspective enhances the depth of analysis by combining the mechanical and behavioral aspects of price action.
The Non-Psychological Levels indicator is not designed to generate trading signals or predict future price movements but serves as a visual and educational tool. Its adaptability across all markets and timeframes allows traders to integrate it into their broader strategies. By highlighting structural price dynamics, the indicator offers a fresh perspective on market analysis while remaining compatible with other technical tools.
⚙️ COMPATIBILITY AND LIMITATIONS ⚙️
Asset Compatibility :
The Non-Psychological Levels indicator is compatible with all asset classes, including cryptocurrencies, forex, stocks, and commodities. It can be applied to any chart or timeframe, making it a flexible tool for structural price analysis. Users should adjust the Sensitivity setting to ensure the segmentation aligns with the price behavior of the specific asset being analyzed. For instance, higher sensitivity values are more suitable for assets with large price ranges, while lower values work well for assets with tighter ranges.
Visual Range Dependency :
The indicator is optimized to perform calculations only within the visible range of the chart. This is a significant advantage, as it prevents unnecessary calculations and maintains efficient performance. However, because of this dependency, levels may appear to "recalculate" when the chart is zoomed in or out quickly or shifted abruptly. While this does not affect the integrity of the levels, it may cause a temporary lag as the indicator adjusts to the new visual range.
Persistence of Levels Beyond Visibility :
Even if levels are not visible on the chart due to zoom or scroll settings, they still exist in the background and are recalculated when revisited. This ensures that the structural price analysis remains consistent, regardless of the chart view.
Box Limitations in Pine Script :
The indicator is subject to Pine Script's inherent limitation of 500 boxes. This means that no more than 500 segments or level boxes can be drawn on the chart simultaneously. For most configurations, this limitation is mitigated by focusing on the visual range, but users employing very low sensitivity settings may exceed the limit. In such cases, only the most recent 500 boxes will be displayed, potentially omitting earlier segments.
Lag with Low Sensitivity Settings :
When sensitivity is set to a low value, the indicator creates many more segments, resulting in finer granularity and a higher number of boxes. While this provides detailed structural levels, it may increase the likelihood of exceeding Pine Script’s 500-box limit or cause a temporary lag when rendering a dense set of boxes over a wide visual range. Users should adjust sensitivity to balance detail with performance, especially on assets with high volatility or broad price ranges.
Live Segment Caution :
The live segment box updates in real time to reflect price movements as the segment is still developing. Since the segment high and segment low are not yet finalized, users should interpret this feature as a dynamic visualization of current price behavior rather than a definitive structural analysis. This ensures clarity during ongoing price action while maintaining the integrity of the indicator's framework.
Cross-Market Versatility :
The indicator’s time-agnostic and mechanical design ensures that it functions identically across all markets and timeframes. However, users should consider the unique characteristics of different markets when interpreting the results, as certain assets (e.g., highly volatile cryptocurrencies) may require sensitivity adjustments for optimal segmentation.
Visual Range Dependency: Levels recalculate efficiently within the chart's visible range but may lag temporarily when zooming or scrolling quickly.
These considerations ensure that the Non-Psychological Levels indicator remains robust and versatile while highlighting some inherent limitations of Pine Script and real-time recalculations. Users can mitigate these constraints by carefully adjusting sensitivity and understanding how the visual range dependency affects performance.
⚠️ DISCLAIMER ⚠️
The Non-Psychological Levels indicator is a visual analysis tool and is not designed as a predictive or trading signal indicator. Its primary purpose is to highlight structural price levels, providing an objective framework for understanding support and resistance within mechanically segmented price action.
The indicator operates within the visible range of the chart to ensure efficiency and adaptiveness, but this recalculation should not be interpreted as a forecast of future price behavior. While the structural levels may align with significant price zones in hindsight, they are purely a reflection of observed price dynamics and should not be used as standalone trading signals.
This indicator is intended as an educational and visual aid to complement other analysis methods. Users are encouraged to integrate it into a broader trading strategy and make adjustments to the settings based on their individual needs and market conditions.
🧠 BEYOND THE CODE 🧠
The Non-Psychological Levels indicator, like other xxattaxx indicators , is designed with education and community collaboration in mind. Its open-source nature encourages exploration, experimentation, and the development of new approaches to price analysis. By focusing on structural price behavior rather than psychological or time-based factors, this indicator introduces a fresh perspective for users to study.
Beyond its visual utility, the indicator serves as an educational framework for understanding the concept of non-psychological analysis. It offers traders an opportunity to explore price dynamics in a purely mechanical way, challenging conventional methods and fostering deeper insights into structural behavior. This approach is especially valuable for those interested in exploring new concepts or seeking alternative perspectives on market analysis.
Your comments, suggestions, and discussions are invaluable in shaping the future of this project. We actively encourage your feedback and contributions, which will directly help us refine and improve the Non-Psychological Levels indicator. We look forward to seeing the creative ways in which you use and enhance this tool. MVS
GIGANEVA V6.61 PublicThis enhanced Fibonacci script for TradingView is a powerful, all-in-one tool that calculates Fibonacci Levels, Fans, Time Pivots, and Golden Pivots on both logarithmic and linear scales. Its ability to compute time pivots via fan intersections and Range interactions, combined with user-friendly features like Bool Fib Right, sets it apart. The script maximizes TradingView’s plotting capabilities, making it a unique and versatile tool for technical analysis across various markets.
1. Overview of the Script
The script appears to be a custom technical analysis tool built for TradingView, improving upon an existing script from TradingView’s Community Scripts. It calculates and plots:
Fibonacci Levels: Standard retracement levels (e.g., 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, etc.) based on a user-defined price range.
Fibonacci Fans: Trendlines drawn from a high or low point, radiating at Fibonacci ratios to project potential support/resistance zones.
Time Pivots: Points in time where significant price action is expected, determined by the intersection of Fibonacci Fans or their interaction with key price levels.
Golden Pivots: Specific time pivots calculated when the 0.5 Fibonacci Fan (on a logarithmic or linear scale) intersects with its counterpart.
The script supports both logarithmic and linear price scales, ensuring versatility across different charting preferences. It also includes a feature to extend Fibonacci Fans to the right, regardless of whether the user selects the top or bottom of the range first.
2. Key Components Explained
a) Fibonacci Levels and Fans from Top and Bottom of the "Range"
Fibonacci Levels: These are horizontal lines plotted at standard Fibonacci retracement ratios (e.g., 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, etc.) based on a user-defined price range (the "Range"). The Range is typically the distance between a significant high (top) and low (bottom) on the chart.
Example: If the high is $100 and the low is $50, the 0.618 retracement level would be at $80.90 ($50 + 0.618 × $50).
Fibonacci Fans: These are diagonal lines drawn from either the top or bottom of the Range, radiating at Fibonacci ratios (e.g., 0.382, 0.5, 0.618). They project potential dynamic support or resistance zones as price evolves over time.
From Top: Fans drawn downward from the high of the Range.
From Bottom: Fans drawn upward from the low of the Range.
Log and Linear Scale:
Logarithmic Scale: Adjusts price intervals to account for percentage changes, which is useful for assets with large price ranges (e.g., cryptocurrencies or stocks with exponential growth). Fibonacci calculations on a log scale ensure ratios are proportional to percentage moves.
Linear Scale: Uses absolute price differences, suitable for assets with smaller, more stable price ranges.
The script’s ability to plot on both scales makes it adaptable to different markets and user preferences.
b) Time Pivots
Time pivots are points in time where significant price action (e.g., reversals, breakouts) is anticipated. The script calculates these in two ways:
Fans Crossing Each Other:
When two Fibonacci Fans (e.g., one from the top and one from the bottom) intersect, their crossing point represents a potential time pivot. This is because the intersection indicates a convergence of dynamic support/resistance zones, increasing the likelihood of a price reaction.
Example: A 0.618 fan from the top crosses a 0.382 fan from the bottom at a specific bar on the chart, marking that bar as a time pivot.
Fans Crossing Top and Bottom of the Range:
A fan line (e.g., 0.5 fan from the bottom) may intersect the top or bottom price level of the Range at a specific time. This intersection highlights a moment where the fan’s projected support/resistance aligns with a key price level, signaling a potential pivot.
Example: The 0.618 fan from the bottom reaches the top of the Range ($100) at bar 50, marking bar 50 as a time pivot.
c) Golden Pivots
Definition: Golden pivots are a special type of time pivot calculated when the 0.5 Fibonacci Fan on one scale (logarithmic or linear) intersects with the 0.5 fan on the opposite scale (or vice versa).
Significance: The 0.5 level is the midpoint of the Fibonacci sequence and often acts as a critical balance point in price action. When fans at this level cross, it suggests a high-probability moment for a price reversal or significant move.
Example: If the 0.5 fan on a logarithmic scale (drawn from the bottom) crosses the 0.5 fan on a linear scale (drawn from the top) at bar 100, this intersection is labeled a "Golden Pivot" due to its confluence of key Fibonacci levels.
d) Bool Fib Right
This is a user-configurable setting (a boolean input in the script) that extends Fibonacci Fans to the right side of the chart.
Functionality: When enabled, the fans project forward in time, regardless of whether the user selected the top or bottom of the Range first. This ensures consistency in visualization, as the direction of the Range selection (top-to-bottom or bottom-to-top) does not affect the fan’s extension.
Use Case: Traders can use this to project future support/resistance zones without worrying about how they defined the Range, improving usability.
3. Why Is This Code Unique?
Original calculation of Log levels were taken from zekicanozkanli code. Thank you for giving me great Foundation, later modified and applied to Fib fans. The script’s uniqueness stems from its comprehensive integration of Fibonacci-based tools and its optimization for TradingView’s plotting capabilities. Here’s a detailed breakdown:
All-in-One Fibonacci Tool:
Most Fibonacci scripts on TradingView focus on either retracement levels, extensions, or fans.
This script combines:
Fibonacci Levels: Static horizontal lines for retracement and extension.
Fibonacci Fans: Dynamic trendlines for projecting support/resistance.
Time Pivots: Temporal analysis based on fan intersections and Range interactions.
Golden Pivots: Specialized pivots based on 0.5 fan confluences.
By integrating these functions, the script provides a holistic Fibonacci analysis tool, reducing the need for multiple scripts.
Log and Linear Scale Support:
Many Fibonacci tools are designed for linear scales only, which can distort projections for assets with exponential price movements. By supporting both logarithmic and linear scales, the script caters to a wider range of markets (e.g., stocks, forex, crypto) and user preferences.
Time Pivot Calculations:
Calculating time pivots based on fan intersections and Range interactions is a novel feature. Most TradingView scripts focus on price-based Fibonacci levels, not temporal analysis. This adds a predictive element, helping traders anticipate when significant price action might occur.
Golden Pivot Innovation:
The concept of "Golden Pivots" (0.5 fan intersections across scales) is a unique addition. It leverages the symmetry of the 0.5 level and the differences between log and linear scales to identify high-probability pivot points.
Maximized Plot Capabilities:
TradingView imposes limits on the number of plots (lines, labels, etc.) a script can render. This script is coded to fully utilize these limits, ensuring that all Fibonacci levels, fans, pivots, and labels are plotted without exceeding TradingView’s constraints.
This optimization likely involves efficient use of arrays, loops, and conditional plotting to manage resources while delivering a rich visual output.
User-Friendly Features:
The Bool Fib Right option simplifies fan projection, making the tool intuitive even for users who may not consistently select the Range in the same order.
The script’s flexibility in handling top/bottom Range selection enhances usability.
4. Potential Use Cases
Trend Analysis: Traders can use Fibonacci Fans to identify dynamic support/resistance zones in trending markets.
Reversal Trading: Time pivots and Golden Pivots help pinpoint moments for potential price reversals.
Range Trading: Fibonacci Levels provide key price zones for trading within a defined range.
Cross-Market Application: Log/linear scale support makes the script suitable for stocks, forex, commodities, and cryptocurrencies.

AiTrend Pattern Matrix for kNN Forecasting (AiBitcoinTrend)The AiTrend Pattern Matrix for kNN Forecasting (AiBitcoinTrend) is a cutting-edge indicator that combines advanced mathematical modeling, AI-driven analytics, and segment-based pattern recognition to forecast price movements with precision. This tool is designed to provide traders with deep insights into market dynamics by leveraging multivariate pattern detection and sophisticated predictive algorithms.
👽 Core Features
Segment-Based Pattern Recognition
At its heart, the indicator divides price data into discrete segments, capturing key elements like candle bodies, high-low ranges, and wicks. These segments are normalized using ATR-based volatility adjustments to ensure robustness across varying market conditions.
AI-Powered k-Nearest Neighbors (kNN) Prediction
The predictive engine uses the kNN algorithm to identify the closest historical patterns in a multivariate dictionary. By calculating the distance between current and historical segments, the algorithm determines the most likely outcomes, weighting predictions based on either proximity (distance) or averages.
Dynamic Dictionary of Historical Patterns
The indicator maintains a rolling dictionary of historical patterns, storing multivariate data for:
Candle body ranges, High-low ranges, Wick highs and lows.
This dynamic approach ensures the model adapts continuously to evolving market conditions.
Volatility-Normalized Forecasting
Using ATR bands, the indicator normalizes patterns, reducing noise and enhancing the reliability of predictions in high-volatility environments.
AI-Driven Trend Detection
The indicator not only predicts price levels but also identifies market regimes by comparing current conditions to historically significant highs, lows, and midpoints. This allows for clear visualizations of trend shifts and momentum changes.
👽 Deep Dive into the Core Mathematics
👾 Segment-Based Multivariate Pattern Analysis
The indicator analyzes price data by dividing each bar into distinct segments, isolating key components such as:
Body Ranges: Differences between the open and close prices.
High-Low Ranges: Capturing the full volatility of a bar.
Wick Extremes: Quantifying deviations beyond the body, both above and below.
Each segment contributes uniquely to the predictive model, ensuring a rich, multidimensional understanding of price action. These segments are stored in a rolling dictionary of patterns, enabling the indicator to reference historical behavior dynamically.
👾 Volatility Normalization Using ATR
To ensure robustness across varying market conditions, the indicator normalizes patterns using Average True Range (ATR). This process scales each component to account for the prevailing market volatility, allowing the algorithm to compare patterns on a level playing field regardless of differing price scales or fluctuations.
👾 k-Nearest Neighbors (kNN) Algorithm
The AI core employs the kNN algorithm, a machine-learning technique that evaluates the similarity between the current pattern and a library of historical patterns.
Euclidean Distance Calculation:
The indicator computes the multivariate distance across four distinct dimensions: body range, high-low range, wick low, and wick high. This ensures a comprehensive and precise comparison between patterns.
Weighting Schemes: The contribution of each pattern to the forecast is either weighted by its proximity (distance) or averaged, based on user settings.
👾 Prediction Horizon and Refinement
The indicator forecasts future price movements (Y_hat) by predicting logarithmic changes in the price and projecting them forward using exponential scaling. This forecast is smoothed using a user-defined EMA filter to reduce noise and enhance actionable clarity.
👽 AI-Driven Pattern Recognition
Dynamic Dictionary of Patterns: The indicator maintains a rolling dictionary of N multivariate patterns, continuously updated to reflect the latest market data. This ensures it adapts seamlessly to changing market conditions.
Nearest Neighbor Matching: At each bar, the algorithm identifies the most similar historical pattern. The prediction is based on the aggregated outcomes of the closest neighbors, providing confidence levels and directional bias.
Multivariate Synthesis: By combining multiple dimensions of price action into a unified prediction, the indicator achieves a level of depth and accuracy unattainable by single-variable models.
Visual Outputs
Forecast Line (Y_hat_line):
A smoothed projection of the expected price trend, based on the weighted contribution of similar historical patterns.
Trend Regime Bands:
Dynamic high, low, and midlines highlight the current market regime, providing actionable insights into momentum and range.
Historical Pattern Matching:
The nearest historical pattern is displayed, allowing traders to visualize similarities
👽 Applications
Trend Identification:
Detect and follow emerging trends early using dynamic trend regime analysis.
Reversal Signals:
Anticipate market reversals with high-confidence predictions based on historically similar scenarios.
Range and Momentum Trading:

### OVERVIEW
**Anchored Darvas Box** lets you drop a single timestamp on your chart and build a Darvas-style consolidation zone forward from that exact candle. The indicator freezes the first user-defined number of bars to establish the range, verifies that price respects that range for another user-defined number of bars, then waits for the first decisive breakout. The resulting rectangle captures every tick of the accumulation phase and the exact moment of expansion—no manual drawing, complete timestamp precision.
---
### HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
Nicolas Darvas’s 1950s box theory tracked institutional accumulation by hand-drawing rectangles around tight price ranges. A trade was triggered only when price escaped the rectangle.
The anchored version preserves Darvas’s logic but pins the entire sequence to a user-chosen candle: perfect for analysing a market open, an earnings release, FOMC minute, or any other catalytic bar.
---
### ALGORITHM DETAIL
1. **ANCHOR BAR**
*You provide a timestamp via the settings panel.* The script waits until the chart reaches that bar and records its index as **startBar**.
2. **RANGE DEFINITION — BARS 1-7**
• `rangeHigh` = highest high of bars 1-7 plus optional tolerance.
• `rangeLow` = lowest low of bars 1-7 minus optional tolerance.
3. **RANGE VALIDATION — BARS 8-14**
• Price must stay inside ` `.
• Any violation aborts the test; no box is created.
4. **ARMED STATE**
• If bars 8-14 hold the range, two live guide-lines appear:
– **Green** at `rangeHigh`
– **Red** at `rangeLow`
• The script is now “armed,” waiting indefinitely for the first true breakout.
5. **BREAKOUT & BOX CREATION**
• **Up breakout** =`high > rangeHigh` → rectangle drawn in **green**.
• **Down breakout**=`low < rangeLow` → rectangle drawn in **red**.
• Box extends from **startBar** to the breakout bar and never updates again.
• Optional labels print the dollar and percentage height of the box at its left edge.
6. **OPTIONAL COOLDOWN**
• After the box is painted the script can stay silent for a user-defined number of bars, letting you study the fallout without another range immediately arming on top of it.
---
### INPUT PARAMETERS
• **ANCHOR TIME** – Precise yyyy-mm-dd HH:MM:SS that seeds the sequence.
• **BARS TO DEFINE RANGE** – Default 7; affects both definition and validation windows.
• **OPTIONAL TOLERANCE** – Absolute price buffer to ignore micro-wicks.
• **COOLDOWN BARS AFTER BREAKOUT** – Pause length before the indicator is allowed to re-anchor (set to zero to disable).
• **SHOW BOX DISTANCE LABELS** – Toggle to print Δ\$ and Δ% on every completed box.
---
### USER WORKFLOW
1. Add the indicator, open settings, and set **ANCHOR TIME** to the candle you care about (e.g., “2025-04-23 09:30:00” for NYSE open).
2. Watch live as the script:
– Paints the seven-bar range.
– Draws validation lines.
– Locks in the box on breakout.
3. Use the box boundaries as structural stops, targets, or context for further trades.
---
### PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS
• **OPENING RANGE BREAKOUTS** – Anchor at the first second of the session; capture the initial 7-bar range and trade the first clean break.
• **EVENT STUDIES** – Anchor at a news candle to measure immediate post-event volatility.
• **VOLUME PROFILE FUSION** – Combine the anchored box with VPVR to see if the breakout occurs at a high-volume node or a low-liquidity pocket.
• **RISK DISCIPLINE** – Stop-loss can sit just inside the opposite edge of the anchored range, enforcing objective risk.
---
### ADVANCED CUSTOMISATION IDEAS
• **MULTIPLE ANCHORS** – Clone the indicator and anchor several boxes (e.g., London open, New York open).
• **DYNAMIC WINDOW** – Switch the 7-bar fixed length to a volatility-scaled length (ATR percentile).
• **STRATEGY WRAPPER** – Turn the indicator into a `strategy{}` script and back-test anchored boxes on decades of data.
---
### FINAL THOUGHTS
Anchored Darvas Boxes give you Darvas’s timeless range-break methodology anchored to any candle of interest—perfect for dissecting openings, economic releases, or your own bespoke “important” bars with laboratory precision.
Statistics plot1. setting the price range
At the beginning of the script, set the price range (interval). Price ranges are used to divide prices into several groups (buckets) and record how many prices have been reached within each group. For example, setting the price range to “10” will divide the price into intervals 0-10, 10-20, 20-30, and so on.
The price range can also be set manually by the user or automatically calculated based on the initial price. This allows for flexibility in adjusting price ranges for different assets and different time frames.
2. aggregate the number of times a price is reached
Record how many times the price reached each price range (e.g., 100-110, 110-120, etc.). This aggregate data is stored in a data structure called an array.
Each element of the array corresponds to a price range, and when a price reaches that range, the corresponding array value is incremented by one. This process is performed in real time, tracking price movements.
3. initializing and extending price ranges
The first bar of the script (when the chart is first loaded) divides the price ranges into several groups and initializes a count of 0 for each range.
When a price reaches a new range, the array is expanded as needed to add the new price range. This allows the script to work with any price movement, even if the price range continues to grow.
4. visualize the number of price arrivals with a histogram
The aggregated number of arrivals per price range is visually displayed in the form of a histogram. This histogram is designed to allow the user to see at a glance which price range is being reached most frequently.
For example, if prices frequently reach the 100-110 range, the histogram bar corresponding to that range will appear higher than the other ranges. This allows you to visually identify price “dwell points” or support and resistance levels.
5. display of moving averages
A moving average (MA) of the number of times a price has been reached is drawn above the histogram. Moving averages are indicators that show a smooth trend for the number of price arrivals and are useful for understanding the overall direction of price movements.
The duration of the moving average (how many data points it is calculated based on) can be set by the user. This allows for flexible analysis of short or long term price trends. 6.
6. price range tracking and labeling
The script keeps track of which price range the current price is located in. Based on this, information related to the current price range is displayed on the chart as labels.
In particular, labels indicate the beginning and end points of the price range, including which range the price was in at the beginning and which range the price reached at the end. These labels are a useful feature to visually identify price ranges on the chart.
7. labeling of current price range
To confirm which price range the current price is in, when a price reaches a specific price range, a label corresponding to that price range is displayed. This label indicates the position of the price in real-time, allowing traders to visually track where the current price is in the area.
8. calculating the start and end points of the range
The script calculates the start and end points of a range with a non-zero number of price arrivals to find the minimum and maximum of the range. This calculation allows you to see where prices are concentrated within a range.
9. out-of-range price processing
When a price reaches outside the range, the script automatically adds the array element corresponding to that price range and inserts the data in the appropriate location for the count. This allows the script to follow the price as it moves unexpectedly.
Filt ADR🟠 Script Name: Filtered Average Daily Range (Filt ADR)
This script calculates a filtered version of the Average Daily Range (ADR) based on the last 14 daily candles. It's designed to reduce the influence of unusually high or low daily ranges (outliers) by applying a filter before calculating the average.
🔧 How It Works — Step by Step
1. Calculate Daily Ranges (High - Low)
It retrieves the daily price ranges (difference between daily high and low) for the last 14 days using request.security() with the "D" (daily) timeframe.
pinescript
Копировать
Редактировать
high - low // today's daily range
high - low // yesterday's daily range
...
These values are stored into individual variables dr0 to dr13.
2. Build an Array of Daily Ranges
An array named ranges is used to store the 14 daily ranges, but only if they are not na (missing data). This avoids errors during processing.
3. Calculate the Initial (Unfiltered) Average Range
The script sums all values in the ranges array and calculates their average:
pinescript
Копировать
Редактировать
avg_all = total sum of ranges / number of valid entries
4. Filter Out Outliers
Now it filters the values in ranges:
Only keeps the ranges that are between 0.5×avg_all and 2×avg_all.
This is to remove abnormally small or large daily ranges that could distort the average.
The filtered values are added to a second array called filtered.
5. Calculate the Filtered ADR
Finally, it calculates the average of the filtered daily ranges:
pinescript
Копировать
Редактировать
avg_filt = sum of filtered ranges / number of filtered values
This is the Filtered ADR.
6. Plot the Result
The result (avg_filt) is plotted as an orange line on the chart. It updates on each bar (depending on the current timeframe you're viewing) but the underlying data is based on the last 14 daily candles.
pinescript
Копировать
Редактировать
plot(avg_filt, title="Filtered ADR", color=color.orange, linewidth=2)
✅ Use Case
This script is useful for traders who use the Average Daily Range (ADR) to:
Estimate expected price movement during a day
Set volatility-based stop-loss or take-profit levels
Identify days with unusually high or low volatility
By filtering out extreme values, it provides a more stable and reliable estimate of daily volatility.
