High Win Rate Trader by iambuoyant# High Win Rate Trader by iambuoyant - Complete Guide
## Introduction
The "High Win Rate Trader by iambuoyant" is a comprehensive Pine Script indicator designed to identify high-probability trading opportunities across various market conditions. Built with a multi-faceted approach, it integrates several key technical analysis concepts to provide robust buy and sell signals, aiming to maximize potential returns while managing risk. This indicator is particularly useful for traders looking for confirmed entries based on a confluence of factors rather than relying on a single signal.
## Core Philosophy
This indicator operates on the principle that **multiple confirming factors create higher probability trades**. Instead of relying on a single indicator, it combines trend analysis, momentum oscillators, volume confirmation, market structure, and mathematical levels to identify optimal entry points. The more confluence factors that align, the stronger the trading signal.

TrendSync Pro (SMC)📊 TrendSync Pro (SMC) – Advanced Trend-Following Strategy with HTF Alignment
Created by Shubham Singh
🔍 Strategy Overview
TrendSync Pro (SMC) is a precision-based smart trend-following strategy inspired by Smart Money Concepts (SMC). It combines: Real-time pivot-based trendline detection
Higher Time Frame (HTF) filtering to align trades with dominant trend
Risk management via adjustable Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP)
Directional control — trade only bullish, bearish, or both setups
Realistic backtesting using commissions and slippage
Pre-optimized profiles for scalpers, intraday, swing, and long-term traders
🧠 How It Works:
🔧 Strategy Settings Image:
beeimg.com
The strategy dynamically identifies trend direction by using swing high/low pivots. When a new pivot forms: It draws a trendline from the last significant pivot
Detects whether the trend is up (based on pivot lows) or down (based on pivot highs)
Waits for price to break above/below the trendline
Confirms with HTF price direction (HTF close > previous HTF close = bullish)
Only then it triggers a long or short trade
It exits either at TP, SL, or a manual trendline break
🛠️ Adjustable Parameters:
Trend Period: Length for pivot detection (affects sensitivity of trendlines)
HTF Timeframe: Aligns lower timeframe entries with higher timeframe direction
SL% and TP%: Customize your risk-reward profile
Commission & Slippage: Make backtests more realistic
Trade Direction: Choose to trade: Long only, Short only, or Both
🎛️ Trade Direction Control:
In settings, you can choose: Bullish Only: Executes only long entries
Bearish Only: Executes only short entries
Both: Executes both long and short entries when conditions are met
This allows you to align trades with your own market bias or external analysis.
📈 Entry Logic: Long Entry:
• Price crosses above trendline
• HTF is bullish (HTF close > previous close)
• Latest pivot is a low (trend is considered up)
Short Entry:
• Price crosses below trendline
• HTF is bearish (HTF close < previous close)
• Latest pivot is a high (trend is considered down)
📉 Exit Logic: Hit Take Profit or Stop Loss
Manual trendline invalidation: If price crosses opposite of the trend direction
⏰ Best Timeframes & Recommended Settings:
Scalping (1m to 5m):
HTF = 15m | Trend Period = 7
SL = 0.5% | TP = 1% to 2%
Intraday (15m to 30m):
HTF = 1H | Trend Period = 10–14
SL = 0.75% | TP = 2% to 3%
6 Hour Trading (30m to 1H):
HTF = 4H | Trend Period = 20
SL = 1% | TP = 4% to 6%
Swing Trading (4H to 1D):
HTF = 1D | Trend Period = 35
SL = 2% | TP = 8% to 12%
Long-Term Investing (1D+):
HTF = 1W | Trend Period = 50
SL = 3% | TP = 15%+
Note: These are recommended base settings. Adjust based on volatility, asset class, or personal trading style.
📸 Testing Note:
beeimg.com
TradingView limits test length to 20k bars (~40 trades on smaller timeframes). To show long-term results: Test on higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H, 1D)
Share images of backtest result in description
Host longer test result screenshots on Imgur or any public drive
📍 Asset Behavior Insight:
This strategy works on multiple assets, including BTC, ETH, etc.
Performance varies by trend strength:
Sometimes BTC performs better than ETH
Other times ETH gives better results
That’s normal as both assets follow different volatility and trend behavior
It’s a trend-following setup. Longer and clearer the trend → better the results.
✅ Best Practices: Avoid ranging markets
Use proper SL/TP for each timeframe
Use directional filter if you already have a directional bias
Always forward test before going live

300-Candle Weighted Average Zones w/50 EMA SignalsThis indicator is designed to deliver a more nuanced view of price dynamics by combining a custom, weighted price average with a volatility-based zone and a trend filter (in this case, a 50-period exponential moving average). The core concept revolves around capturing the overall price level over a relatively large lookback window (300 candles) but with an intentional bias toward recent market activity (the most recent 20 candles), thereby offering a balance between long-term context and short-term responsiveness. By smoothing this weighted average and establishing a “zone” of standard deviation bands around it, the indicator provides a refined visualization of both average price and its recent volatility envelope. Traders can then look for confluence with a standard trend filter, such as the 50 EMA, to identify meaningful crossover signals that may represent trend shifts or opportunities for entry and exit.
What the Indicator Does:
Weighted Price Average:
Instead of using a simple or exponential moving average, this indicator calculates a custom weighted average price over the past 300 candles. Most historical candles receive a base weight of 1.0, but the most recent 20 candles are assigned a higher weight (for example, a weight of 2.0). This weighting scheme ensures that the calculation is not simply a static lookback average; it actively emphasizes current market conditions. The effect is to generate an average line that is more sensitive to the most recent price swings while still maintaining the historical context of the previous 280 candles.
Smoothing of the Weighted Average:
Once the raw weighted average is computed, an exponential smoothing function (EMA) is applied to reduce noise and produce a cleaner, more stable average line. This smoothing helps traders avoid reacting prematurely to minor price fluctuations. By stabilizing the average line, traders can more confidently identify actual shifts in market direction.
Volatility Zone via Standard Deviation Bands:
To contextualize how far price can deviate from this weighted average, the indicator uses standard deviation. Standard deviation is a statistical measure of volatility—how spread out the price values are around the mean. By adding and subtracting one standard deviation from the smoothed weighted average, the indicator plots an upper band and a lower band, creating a zone or channel. The area between these bands is filled, often with a semi-transparent color, highlighting a volatility corridor within which price and the EMA might oscillate.
This zone is invaluable in visualizing “normal” price behavior. When the 50 EMA line and the weighted average line are both within this volatility zone, it indicates that the market’s short- to mid-term trend and its average pricing are aligned well within typical volatility bounds.
Incorporation of a 50-Period EMA:
The inclusion of a commonly used trend filter, the 50 EMA, adds another layer of context to the analysis. The 50 EMA, being a widely recognized moving average length, is often considered a baseline for intermediate trend bias. It reacts faster than a long-term average (like a 200 EMA) but is still stable enough to filter out the market “chop” seen in very short-term averages.
By overlaying the 50 EMA on this custom weighted average and the surrounding volatility zone, the trader gains a dual-dimensional perspective:
Trend Direction: If the 50 EMA is generally above the weighted average, the short-term trend is gaining bullish momentum; if it’s below, the short-term trend has a bearish tilt.
Volatility Normalization: The bands, constructed from standard deviations, provide a sense of whether the price and the 50 EMA are operating within a statistically “normal” range. If the EMA crosses the weighted average within this zone, it signals a potential trend initiation or meaningful shift, as opposed to a random price spike outside normal volatility boundaries.
Why a Trader Would Want to Use This Indicator:
Contextualized Price Level:
Standard MAs may not fully incorporate the most recent price dynamics in a large lookback window. By weighting the most recent candles more heavily, this indicator ensures that the trader is always anchored to what the market is currently doing, not just what it did 100 or 200 candles ago.
Reduced Whipsaw with Smoothing:
The smoothed weighted average line reduces noise, helping traders filter out inconsequential price movements. This makes it easier to spot genuine changes in trend or sentiment.
Visual Volatility Gauge:
The standard deviation bands create a visual representation of “normal” price movement. Traders can quickly assess if a breakout or breakdown is statistically significant or just another oscillation within the expected volatility range.
Clear Trade Signals with Confirmation:
By integrating the 50 EMA and designing signals that trigger only when the 50 EMA crosses above or below the weighted average while inside the zone, the indicator provides a refined entry/exit criterion. This avoids chasing breakouts that occur in abnormal volatility conditions and focuses on those crossovers likely to have staying power.
How to Use It in an Example Strategy:
Imagine you are a swing trader looking to identify medium-term trend changes. You apply this indicator to a chart of a popular currency pair or a leading tech stock. Over the past few days, the 50 EMA has been meandering around the weighted average line, both confined within the standard deviation zone.
Bullish Example:
Suddenly, the 50 EMA crosses decisively above the weighted average line while both are still hovering within the volatility zone. This might be your cue: you interpret this crossover as the 50 EMA acknowledging the recent upward shift in price dynamics that the weighted average has highlighted. Since it occurred inside the normal volatility range, it’s less likely to be a head-fake. You place a long position, setting an initial stop just below the lower band to protect against volatility.
If the price continues to rise and the EMA stays above the average, you have confirmation to hold the trade. As the price moves higher, the weighted average may follow, reinforcing your bullish stance.
Bearish Example:
On the flip side, if the 50 EMA crosses below the weighted average line within the zone, it suggests a subtle but meaningful change in trend direction to the downside. You might short the asset, placing your protective stop just above the upper band, expecting that the statistically “normal” level of volatility will contain the price action. If the price does break above those bands later, it’s a sign your trade may not work out as planned.
Other Indicators for Confluence:
To strengthen the reliability of the signals generated by this weighted average zone approach, traders may want to combine it with other technical studies:
Volume Indicators (e.g., Volume Profile, OBV):
Confirm that the trend crossover inside the volatility zone is supported by volume. For instance, an uptrend crossover combined with increasing On-Balance Volume (OBV) or volume spikes on up candles signals stronger buying pressure behind the price action.
Momentum Oscillators (e.g., RSI, Stochastics):
Before taking a crossover signal, check if the RSI is above 50 and rising for bullish entries, or if the Stochastics have turned down from overbought levels for bearish entries. Momentum confirmation can help ensure that the trend change is not just an isolated random event.
Market Structure Tools (e.g., Pivot Points, Swing High/Low Analysis):
Identify if the crossover event coincides with a break of a previous pivot high or low. A bullish crossover inside the zone aligned with a break above a recent swing high adds further strength to your conviction. Conversely, a bearish crossover confirmed by a breakdown below a previous swing low can make a short trade setup more compelling.
Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP):
Comparing where the weighted average zone lies relative to VWAP can provide institutional insight. If the bullish crossover happens while the price is also holding above VWAP, it can mean that the average participant in the market is in profit and that the trend is likely supported by strong hands.
This indicator serves as a tool to balance long-term perspective, short-term adaptability, and volatility normalization. It can be a valuable addition to a trader’s toolkit, offering enhanced clarity and precision in detecting meaningful shifts in trend, especially when combined with other technical indicators and robust risk management principles.
Trading BehnamI've read around here various definitions for engulfs along the lines of "an engulf consumes all orders at a level to allow price to easily pass through it." . That doesn't make much sense to me, if the guys with billions of dollars want to break a level, they will break it and price will run off very often. We've seen it time and time again, they don't need to engulf levels to give us a nice opportunity to get into the trade with them, if they want to blast through a level, they will do so and price will run off. If they want an opportunity to accumulate more orders before price runs away, then it doesn't make sense to engulf the level, better to let price bounce from that level and then fill more orders, if the level breaks then they have to deliberately stop the market running away and move it back to the pre-engulf area as the market momentum would naturally make it run off after an engulf. Other ideas about it being a secret signal between the institutions don't make sense to me either. To be honest, I think any secret signals between competing institutions come in the form of them in a heavily encrypted chatroom telling each other what to do. This collusion has been reported on previously as traders align their activities at important moments.
So I think we can all agree something along the lines of:
Fakeout:
Fakeout is an engulf of an obvious swing high/low in order to stop out traders and induce breakout traders to trade in the wrong direction, thus generating liquidity for the move in the opposite direction.
What's not so clear is the definition of the engulf, I'd like to try to give some ideas on the purpose of the engulf and it's definition and see what others think.
Engulf:
An engulf is the consumption of orders at an important level, not necessarily a swing/high low but an area where we expect to see supply or demand. Taking out of the orders tells us that the supply or demand which was or should have been present is now not present and tells us the intent direction of the market. If price runs off as is often the case, this is not tradeable and is effectively just a "breakout", although breakouts are usually considered to be breaks of swing high and lows which are obvious to the average trader. For an engulf to be tradeable there must be a retrace following the engulf back in the original direction. This adds confusion as it initially resembles a fakeout. So the question is, why does price retrace after the engulf? If an engulf to the short side is a genuine engulf and not a fakeout to generate long liquidity, why does it not travel immediately south if market momentum is ultimately south.
A small pocket of demand beneath the engulfed level may make it retrace north as price moves between areas of liquidity, this pocket of demand may give price enough momentum to make it back up to the supply which broke the demand level if key market participants do not favour an immediate market drop.
Alternatively key market participants may step in and drive the market back upwards.
Price moving north back to supply after the engulf may occur or be favourable for various reasons:
1) We often talk about FO generating liquidity because of breakout trading, but an engulf can also generate liquidity from breakout traders. Short breakout traders would place their stop losses a small distance above the engulf (breakout). If key players absorb this selling or allow a demand level to push price back up, they can run price back up to supply taking out the stops of the breakout short traders and make quick profit and/or generate more liquidity for their own shorts.
2) To confuse traders, the ITs don't want the puzzle that is Forex to be easy to solve, if price never retraced after an engulf then engulfs of all levels would be FOs. Price would either break and immediately runoff or it would turn and runoff in the other direction. In order to keep people confused about whether price is faking out or breaking out, sometimes price should whipsaw by breaking out, briefly faking out and then continuing in the direction of the breakout. This whipsaw pattern is to us a tradeable engulf.
3) Market momentum may be mixed, key players are indecisive or inactive or the market is behaving erratically.
4) As previously mentioned there may be a small pocket of supply/demand just past the engulf which is causing a reaction. This could also be viewed as a FO on a different timeframe. If the market engulfs an H1 demand level, then retraces for 30 mins upwards to supply, this engulf would be a valid and very profitable FO for an M1 trader looking to get long.
BOS mark-out (by Lumiere)Advanced BOS Detection with Strict Swing Confirmation
This indicator implements BOS detection with several unique features:
🔹 Dual-Candle Swing Validation - Unlike most BOS indicators that use single candle swings, this uses a two-candle confirmation for swing highs/lows, analyzing both the candle wicks and body transitions.
🔹 Directional Lock System - Implements a state machine that prevents duplicate signals until an opposite-direction BOS occurs, reducing noise.
🔹 Precision Wick Analysis - Compares wicks between the reversal candle and confirmation candle to identify the true swing point.
🔹 Real-Time Update & Live Market Adaptation – The indicator continuously monitors price action and instantly updates BOS signals as new candles form, ensuring you never miss a BOS.
How It Differs From Other BOS Indicators:
Most public BOS indicators use simple HH/HL or LH/LL detection.
Many don't implement the directional locking mechanism.
Few use the two-candle wick comparison approach.
Wick-Based Precision uses the extreme wicks of two candles (not just the body).
Strict Confirmation requires a close beyond the swing point (no "wick breaks" counted).
Usage Examples:
🟦 Bullish BOS:
A green candle closes, followed by a red candle. This will be the new high, and if the next candle closes above the highest wick of those two, it will be a BOS (only if we had a bearish BOS before)
🟥 Bearish BOS:
A red candle closes, followed by a green candle. This will be the new low, and if the next candle closes below the lowest wick of those two, it will be a BOS (only if we had a Bullish BOS before)
Elliott Wave with Supertrend Exit - Strategy [presentTrading]## Introduction and How it is Different
The Elliott Wave with Supertrend Exit provides automated detection and validation of Elliott Wave patterns for algorithmic trading. It is designed to objectively identify high-probability wave formations and signal entries based on confirmed impulsive and corrective patterns.
* The Elliott part is mostly referenced from Elliott Wave by @LuxAlgo
Key advantages compared to discretionary Elliott Wave analysis:
- Wave Labeling and Counting: The strategy programmatically identifies swing pivot highs/lows with the Zigzag indicator and analyzes the waves between them. It labels the potential impulsive and corrective patterns as they form. This removes the subjectivity of manual wave counting.
- Pattern Validation: A rules-based engine confirms valid impulsive and corrective patterns by checking relative size relationships and fib ratios. Only confirmed wave counts are plotted and traded.
- Objective Entry Signals: Trades are entered systematically on the start of new impulsive waves in the direction of the trend. Pattern failures invalidate setups and stop out positions.
- Automated Trade Management: The strategy defines specific rules for profit targets at fib extensions, trailing stops at swing points, and exits on Supertrend reversals. This automates the entire trade lifecycle.
- Adaptability: The waveform recognition engine can be tuned by adjusting parameters like Zigzag depth and Supertrend settings. It adapts to evolving market conditions.
ETH 1hr chart
In summary, the strategy brings automation, objectivity and adaptability to Elliott Wave trading - removing subjective interpretation errors and emotional trading biases. It implements a rules-based, algorithmic approach for systematically trading Elliott Wave patterns across markets and timeframes.
## Trading Logic and Rules
The strategy follows specific trading rules based on the detected and validated Elliott Wave patterns.
Entry Rules
- Long entry when a new impulsive bullish (5-wave) pattern forms
- Short entry when a new impulsive bearish (5-wave) pattern forms
The key is entering on the start of a new potential trend wave rather than chasing.
Exit Rules
- Invalidation of wave pattern stops out the trade
- Close long trades on Supertrend downturn
- Close short trades on Supertrend upturn
- Use a stop loss of 10% of entry price (configurable)
Trade Management
- Scale out partial profits at Fibonacci levels
- Move stop to breakeven when price reaches 1.618 extension
- Trail stops below key swing points
- Target exits at next Fibonacci projection level
Risk Management
- Use stop losses on all trades
- Trade only highest probability setups
- Size positions according to chart timeframe
- Avoid overtrading when no clear patterns emerge
## Strategy - How it Works
The core logic follows these steps:
1. Find swing highs/lows with Zigzag indicator
2. Analyze pivot points to detect impulsive 5-wave patterns:
- Waves 1, 3, and 5 should not overlap
- Waves 3 and 5 must be longer than wave 1
- Confirm relative size relationships between waves
3. Validate corrective 3-wave patterns:
- Look for overlapping, choppy waves that retrace the prior impulsive wave
4. Plot validated waves and Fibonacci retracement levels
5. Signal entries when a new impulsive wave pattern forms
6. Manage exits based on pattern failures and Supertrend reversals
Impulsive Wave Validation
The strategy checks relative size relationships to confirm valid impulsive waves.
For uptrends, it ensures:
```
Copy code- Wave 3 is longer than wave 1
- Wave 5 is longer than wave 2
- Waves do not overlap
```
Corrective Wave Validation
The strategy identifies overlapping corrective patterns that retrace the prior impulsive wave within Fibonacci levels.
Pattern Failure Invalidation
If waves fail validation tests, the strategy invalidates the pattern and stops signaling trades.
## Trade Direction
The strategy detects impulsive and corrective patterns in both uptrends and downtrends. Entries are signaled in the direction of the validated wave pattern.
## Usage
- Use on charts showing clear Elliott Wave patterns
- Start with daily or weekly timeframes to gauge overall trend
- Optimize Zigzag and Supertrend settings as needed
- Consider combining with other indicators for confirmation
## Default Settings
- Zigzag Length: 4 bars
- Supertrend Length: 10 bars
- Supertrend Multiplier: 3
- Stop Loss: 10% of entry price
- Trading Direction: Both
Filter-Out Weak Pivot highs/lows, Swing highs/lows: MethodJust a simple indicator for refining the standard method of finding Pivot highs & Lows; Allowing user to filter-out weak/flat/rounded Pivot highs/lows
-Aim of this is to get pivot highs & pivot lows coded to print more in line with what the eye would naturally be drawn to as an obvious pivot high/low.
-This uses local moving average around the pivot high/low together with user-input ATR multiple, to create a condition for filtering out lacklustre pivot highs/lows.
-Thought i'd publish this separately as a tool that other coders might find useful.

MTF Trend WidgetThis indicator identifies trends in multiple higher timeframes (D, W, M) and shows them in a widget off to the right of the chart.
It's meant to be used as an alternative filter for "trading with the trend." Typically people use moving averages of varying lengths for this (i.e. if over 200 MA it's an uptrend, etc.), but I wanted to see if it might be more effective to see if the higher timeframes were actually trending or not in a certain direction.
For the purposes of this indicator, an uptrend is defined as higher highs and higher lows. So if currently in a downtrend and the highs are broken, the indicator will flip to an uptrend because now we have a higher high. Vice versa for downtrends.
The user can choose the lookback period for defining these highs/lows (the pivot points). A smaller lookback number will give you more frequent pivot points.
The user can toggle on visibility of all historical pivot points to make sure the frequency and placement of the swing highs/lows is to their liking.
The user can show the support/resistance lines of those most recent swing high/low points on the multiple timeframes as well.
When these lines are breached, that is when the trends change, so you can see if you are close to changing any longer term trends.
My hope is that this gives people a quick glance at the overall trend without having to cycle through different timeframes.
Market Structure MTF Trend [Pt]█ Author's Notes
There are numerous market structure indicators in the TradingView library, each offering a unique approach to identifying price action shifts. Market Structure MTF Trend was created with simplicity and flexibility in mind—providing a highly customizable multi-timeframe setup, visually clear trendlines, and straightforward labeling. This combination helps both new and experienced traders easily spot and interpret market structure changes.
█ Overview
Market Structure MTF Trend is a powerful yet user-friendly indicator designed to identify and visualize key turning points in price action. It focuses on two core concepts:
Change of Character (CHoCH): A momentary shift in the market’s behavior, signaling that the current price movement may be losing momentum and could soon reverse.
Break of Structure (BoS): A more definitive event confirming a new price pattern, where the market establishes a fresh trend direction by surpassing previous swing highs or lows.
By combining these signals across up to four different timeframes, even traders unfamiliar with market structure can quickly learn to spot and validate potential trend reversals or continuations.
█ Key Features
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: Monitors CHoCH and BoS events simultaneously on multiple intervals (e.g., 15m, 30m, 60m, 240m), providing a clear, layered understanding of market dynamics.
Straightforward Visual Cues: Labels are placed directly on the chart at swing highs and lows, while colored bars at the bottom give an instant snapshot of whether each timeframe is bullish or bearish.
Configurable Timeframes & Pivot Strength: Easily set up the desired intervals and adjust pivot strength to tune how sensitive the indicator is to minor price fluctuations.
Color-Coded Signals: Different colors help you distinguish between potential early reversals (CHoCH) and confirmed shifts (BoS), ensuring each signal’s importance is immediately clear.
█ Usage & Benefits
Learn Market Structure Basics: For those new to swing highs/lows, CHoCH, and BoS, the script’s on-chart labels and dynamic bar coloring provide a practical, visual way to grasp these concepts.
Spot Reversals Early: CHoCH alerts you to possible shifts in momentum, allowing you to anticipate trend changes before they fully develop.
Confirm Trend Breaks: BoS events confirm that the market has established a new directional bias, reinforcing higher‐probability entry or exit points.
Reduce Noise & Stay Focused: The multi-timeframe setup ensures you won’t overlook larger trends or get lost in smaller fluctuations.
Streamline Decision-Making: Color-coded bars let you gauge overall market sentiment at a glance—ideal for quickly validating trades without juggling multiple charts.
Market Structure MTF Trend is perfect for traders who want to learn or refine their understanding of price action. By integrating multiple timeframes into a single, cohesive interface, this tool highlights both subtle shifts and confirmed breaks in market structure, empowering you to trade with greater insight and confidence.
Half Cup [LuxAlgo]The Half Cup indicator detects and displays patterns with the shape of a Half Cup , initiating a channel. From this channel, breakouts are detected and highlighted with dots.
Users can control the shape of the Half Cup and the channel length through various settings.
Do note that the displayed half cups are displayed retrospectively, making them subject to backpainting.
🔶 USAGE
The idea behind the indicator is derived from the Cup & Handle pattern, which requires waiting for the pattern full completion.
Our Half Cup publication aims to find opportunities when the potential cup is only formed halfway.
In this example, a green dot shows the first breakout of the upper channel extremity. A few bars later, the price went under it, after which it returned above, triggering a second green dot. Both triggers were good opportunities in this case, and the price rose afterward.
The Half Cup pattern can be the start of a potential complete Cup & Handle (As in the example above, a complete Cup pattern (without the Handle ) is shown, manually drawn with dashed lines).
Every green/red dot, whether on a bullish or bearish pattern, points to a breakout respectively above/below the channel.
Besides drawing patterns and the corresponding breakouts, the Half Cup indicator can also provide insights into trends and potential opportunities in the long run.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Validation
Several criteria must be fulfilled before a visible pattern on the chart is drawn.
Calculations are done beforehand to know where the Half Cup pattern would be positioned.
The pattern's bottom and top edges are checked for the number of bars whose closing price is outside the half-cup area. When the number of breakouts above/below is equal to or lower than the user-defined settings ( Max % Breaks Top/Bottom ), the pattern is drawn together with a brighter-colored channel next to it.
Dots highlighting the channel's breakout can be drawn from that moment until the end of both channel lines.
🔹 Positioning
Users can adjust the following settings to fit their needs:
% Broadness: Moves the Top/Bottom line (bullish or bearish) diagonally upwards/downwards.
Vertical Shift: Shifts the entire pattern up/down.
Channel Length: Sets the line length of the channel.
Note that adjusting the position of the pattern will change the validation; the script will be rerun to check if patterns are still valid or if new patterns can be drawn. Some patterns may disappear, while new ones may appear.
Before adjusting the position, the user can set Max % Breaks Top/Bottom at 100%. When the positioning is set, Max % Breaks Top/Bottom can be set as desired.
🔹 Updated Drawings
The Half Cup pattern is always drawn retrospectively (that is it is subject to backpainting), the channel is drawn from the bar from where the pattern is detected. Every breakout of the channel will remain visible as dots.
When a new swing high/low is found while the previous swing low/high remains the same, the pattern is updated to minimize clutter. The dots of earlier drawings will remain visible (to ensure no repainting occurs), but the color becomes faded, as such bright dots are associated with patterns that are visible on the chart, while faded dots are from removed/updated patterns.
🔶 SETTINGS
Swing Length: Period used for the swing detection, with higher values returning longer-term Swing Levels.
🔹 Validation
Max % Breaks Bottom: Allowed maximum amount of bars where the closing price is below the bottom of the Half Cup pattern against the total width of the pattern (bars).
Max % Breaks Top: Allowed maximum amount of bars where the closing price is above the top of the Half Cup pattern against the total width of the pattern (bars).
🔹 Positioning
% Broadness: Moves the Top/Bottom line (bullish or bearish) diagonally upwards/downwards.
Vertical Shift: Shifts the entire pattern up/down.
Channel Length: Sets the line length of the channel.

Support and Resistance Signals MTF [LuxAlgo]The Support and Resistance Signals MTF indicator aims to identify undoubtedly one of the key concepts of technical analysis Support and Resistance Levels and more importantly, the script aims to capture and highlight major price action movements, such as Breakouts , Tests of the Zones , Retests of the Zones , and Rejections .
The script supports Multi-TimeFrame (MTF) functionality allowing users to analyze and observe the Support and Resistance Levels/Zones and their associated Signals from a higher timeframe perspective.
This script is an extended version of our previously published Support-and-Resistance-Levels-with-Breaks script from 2020.
Identification of key support and resistance levels/zones is an essential ingredient to successful technical analysis.
🔶 USAGE
Support and resistance are key concepts that help traders understand, analyze and act on chart patterns in the financial markets. Support describes a price level where a downtrend pauses due to demand for an asset increasing, while resistance refers to a level where an uptrend reverses as a sell-off happens.
The creation of support and resistance levels comes as a result of an initial imbalance of supply/demand, which forms what we know as a swing high or swing low. This script starts its processing using the swing highs/lows. Swing Highs/Lows are levels that many of the market participants use as a historical reference to place their trading orders (buy, sell, stop loss), as a result, those price levels potentially become and serve as key support and resistance levels.
One of the important features of the script is the signals it provides. The script follows the major price movements and highlights them on the chart.
🔹 Breakouts (non-repaint)
A breakout is a price moving outside a defined support or resistance level, the significance of the breakout can be measured by examining the volume. This script is not filtering them based on volume but provides volume information for the bar where the breakout takes place.
🔹 Retests
Retest is a case where the price action breaches a zone and then revisits the level breached.
🔹 Tests
Test is a case where the price action touches the support or resistance zones.
🔹 Rejections
Rejections are pin bar patterns with high trading volume.
Finally, Multi TimeFrame (MTF) functionality allows users to analyze and observe the Support and Resistance Levels/Zones and their associated Signals from a higher timeframe perspective.
🔶 SETTINGS
The script takes into account user-defined parameters to detect and highlight the zones, levels, and signals.
🔹 Support & Resistance Settings
Detection Timeframe: Set the indicator resolution, the users may examine higher timeframe detection on their chart timeframe.
Detection Length: Swing levels detection length

CVD Divergence & Volume ProfileThis Pine Script indicator, named "CVD Divergence & Volume Profile," is designed to identify potential trading opportunities by combining Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) divergence with Volume Profile levels and an optional Simple Moving Average (SMA) trend filter. It plots signals directly on the price chart.
Here's a breakdown of what each component does and how to potentially trade with it:
1. Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) Divergence
What it does: CVD measures the cumulative difference between buying and selling volume. A rising CVD indicates more buying pressure, while a falling CVD indicates more selling pressure. Divergence occurs when the price action contradicts the CVD's direction, suggesting a potential shift in momentum or trend reversal.
Bearish Divergence: The price makes a higher high, but the CVD makes a lower high (or fails to make a new high). This suggests that despite the price increasing, the underlying buying pressure is weakening.
Bullish Divergence: The price makes a lower low, but the CVD makes a higher low (or fails to make a new low). This suggests that despite the price decreasing, the underlying selling pressure is weakening.
Visualization:
Red triangle pointing down on the chart indicates a Bearish Divergence signal.
Green triangle pointing up on the chart indicates a Bullish Divergence signal.
2. Volume Profile Levels (VAH, VAL, POC)
What it does: The indicator calculates simplified Volume Profile levels over a user-defined vp_range (number of candles). These levels represent areas where significant trading activity has occurred:
VAH (Value Area High): The upper boundary of the "Value Area," where 70% of the volume traded.
VAL (Value Area Low): The lower boundary of the "Value Area," where 70% of the volume traded.
POC (Point of Control): The price level within the vp_range where the most volume was traded.
Significance: These levels often act as significant support and resistance zones.
Visualization:
Orange lines for VAH and VAL.
Yellow line for POC.
Zone Proximity (zone_thresh): The indicator only generates divergence signals if the current close price is within a specified percentage zone_thresh of either VAH, VAL, or POC. This filters signals to areas of high liquidity and potential turning points.
3. Trend Filter (SMA)
What it does: This is an optional filter (use_trend_filter) that uses a Simple Moving Average (sma_period, default 200).
Significance: It helps ensure that divergence signals are traded in alignment with the broader market trend, potentially increasing their reliability.
For long signals (bullish divergence), the price (close) must be above the SMA (indicating an uptrend).
For short signals (bearish divergence), the price (close) must be below the SMA (indicating a downtrend).
Visualization: A blue line on the chart representing the SMA.
How to Trade with It (Potential Strategies)
The indicator aims to provide high-probability entry points by combining multiple confirming factors. Here's how you might interpret and trade the signals:
Identify Divergence: Look for the triangle signals on your chart (red for bearish, green for bullish).
Confirm Proximity to Volume Profile Levels: The signal itself confirms that the price is near a significant Volume Profile level (VAH, VAL, or POC). These are areas where price often reacts.
Bullish Signal (Green Triangle): This suggests buying momentum is returning after a price decline, especially when the price is near VAL or POC, which might act as support.
Bearish Signal (Red Triangle): This suggests selling momentum is increasing after a price rally, especially when the price is near VAH or POC, which might act as resistance.
Check Trend Alignment (SMA Filter):
For a long trade: You would ideally want to see a green triangle (bullish divergence) while the price is above the blue SMA line. This indicates a bullish divergence confirming a potential bounce within an existing uptrend.
For a short trade: You would ideally want to see a red triangle (bearish divergence) while the price is below the blue SMA line. This indicates a bearish divergence confirming a potential rejection within an existing downtrend.
Entry and Exit Considerations:
Entry: Consider entering a trade on the candle where the signal appears, or on the subsequent candle for confirmation.
Stop Loss: For a long trade, a logical stop-loss could be placed below the lowest point of the divergence, or below the VAL/POC if the signal occurred near it. For a short trade, above the highest point of the divergence or VAH/POC.
Take Profit: Targets could be set at the opposite Volume Profile level, previous swing highs/lows, or using a fixed risk-reward ratio.
Example Trading Scenario:
Long Trade: You see a green triangle (bullish divergence) printed on the chart. You notice the price is currently at the VAL (orange line). You check the blue SMA line and confirm that the price is above it (uptrend). This confluence of factors (bullish divergence, support at VAL, and uptrend) provides a strong potential long entry signal. You might enter, place your stop loss just below VAL, and target VAH or the next resistance level.
Short Trade: You see a red triangle (bearish divergence). The price is at the VAH (orange line). The price is also below the blue SMA line (downtrend). This suggests a potential short entry. You might enter, place your stop loss just above VAH, and target VAL or the next support level.
Fractal Wave MarkerFractal Wave Marker is an indicator that processes relative extremes of fluctuating prices within 2 periodical aspects. The special labeling system detects and visually marks multi-scale turning points, letting you visualize fractal echoes within unfolding cycles dynamically.
What This Indicator Does
Identifies major and minor swing highs/lows based on adjustable period.
Uses Phi in power exponent to compute a higher-degree swing filter.
Labels of higher degree appear only after confirmed base swings — no phantom levels, no hindsight bias. What you see is what the market has validated.
Swing points unfold in a structured, alternating rhythm . No two consecutive pivots share the same hierarchical degree!
Inspired by the Fractal Market Hypothesis, this script visualizes the principle that market behavior repeats across time scales, revealing structured narrative of "random walk". This inherent sequencing ensures fractal consistency across timeframes. "Fractal echoes" demonstrate how smaller price swings can proportionally mirror larger ones in both structure and timing, allowing traders to anticipate movements by recursive patterns. Cycle Transitions highlight critical inflection points where minor pivots flip polarity such as a series of lower highs progress into higher highs—signaling the birth of a new macro trend. A dense dense clusters of swing points can indicate Liquidity Zones, acting as footprints of institutional accumulation or distribution where price action validates supply and demand imbalances.
Visualization of nested cycles within macro trend anchors - a main feature specifically designed for the chartists who prioritize working with complex wave oscillations their analysis.

Master Pattern [LuxAlgo]The Master Pattern indicator is derived from the framework proposed by Wyckoff and automatically displays major/minor patterns and their associated expansion lines on the chart.
Liquidity levels are also included and can be used as targets/stops. Note that the Liquidity levels are plotted retrospectively as they are based on pivots.
🔶 USAGE
The Master Pattern indicator detects contraction phases in the markets (characterized by a lower high and higher low). The resulting average from the latest swing high/low is used as expansion line. Price breaking the contraction range upwards highlights a bullish master pattern, while a break downward highlights a bearish master pattern.
During the expansion phase price can tend to be stationary around the expansion level. This phase is then often followed by the price significantly deviating from the expansion line, highlighting a markup phase.
Expansion lines can also be used as support/resistance levels.
🔹 Major/Minor Patterns
The script can classify patterns as major or minor patterns.
Major patterns occur when price breaks both the upper and lower extremity of a contraction range, with their contraction area highlighted with a border, while minor patterns have only a single extremity broken.
🔶 SETTINGS
Contraction Detection Lookback: Lookback used to detect the swing points used to detect the contraction range.
Liquidity Levels: Lookback for the swing points detection used as liquidity levels. Higher values return longer term liquidity levels.
Show Major Pattern: Display major patterns.
Show Minor Pattern: Display minor patterns.
