Algo Structure [ValiantTrader_]
Explanation of the "Algo Structure" Trading Indicator
This Pine Script indicator, created by ValiantTrader_, is a multi-timeframe swing analysis tool that helps traders identify key price levels and market structure across different timeframes. Here's how it works and how traders can use it:
Core Components
1. Multi-Timeframe Swing Analysis
The indicator tracks swing highs and lows across:
The current chart timeframe
A higher timeframe (weekly by default)
An even higher timeframe (monthly by default)
2. Swing Detection Logic
Current timeframe swings: Identified when price makes a 3-bar high/low pattern
Higher timeframe swings: Uses the highest high/lowest low of the last 3 bars on those timeframes
3. Visual Elements
Horizontal lines marking swing points
Labels showing the timeframe and percentage distance from current price
An information table summarizing key levels
How Traders Use This Indicator
1. Identifying Key Levels
The indicator draws recent swing highs (red) and swing lows (green)
These levels act as potential support/resistance areas
Traders watch for price reactions at these levels
2. Multi-Timeframe Analysis
By seeing swings from higher timeframes (weekly, monthly), traders can:
Identify more significant support/resistance zones
Understand the broader market context
Spot confluence areas where multiple timeframes align
3. Measuring Price Distance
The percentage display shows how far current price is from each swing level
Helps assess potential reward/risk at current levels
Shows volatility between swings (wider % = more volatile moves)
4. Table Summary
The info table provides a quick reference for:
Exact price levels of swings
Percentage ranges between highs and lows
Comparison across timeframes
5. Trading Applications
Breakout trading: When price moves beyond a swing high/low
Mean reversion: Trading bounces between swing levels
Trend confirmation: Higher highs/lows in multiple timeframes confirm trends
Support/resistance trading: Entering trades at swing levels with other confirmation
Customization Options
Traders can adjust:
The higher timeframes analyzed
Whether to show the timeframe labels
Whether to display swing levels
Whether to show the info table
The indicator also includes price alerts for new swing highs/lows on the current timeframe, allowing traders to get notifications when market structure changes.
This tool is particularly valuable for traders who incorporate multi-timeframe analysis into their strategy, helping them visualize important price levels across different time perspectives
