ZigZag Volume Profile [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW ZigZag Volume Profile combines swing structure with volume analytics by plotting a ZigZag of major price swings and overlaying a detailed volume profile around each swing. At the end of each swing, it highlights the Point of Control (POC) — the price level with the highest traded volume — and extends it forward to identify key areas of potential support or resistance. ⯁ KEY FEATURES ZigZag Swing Detection: Automatically detects swing highs and lows based on a user-defined length, creating clean visual segments of market structure. These segments act as boundaries for volume profile calculations. swingHigh = ta.highest(swingLength) swingLow = ta.lowest(swingLength) ZigZag Channel Visualization: The ZigZag structure is connected with sloped lines, forming a visual “channel” of the price movement. The ZigZag can optionally, scaled by ATR. Volume Profile Around Each Swing: For every completed swing (high to low or low to high), the indicator constructs a full volume profile using user-defined bin counts. It scans volume across price levels in the swing and plots histogram-style bins using a gradient color to indicate volume magnitude. Dynamic Bin Width and Slope Adjustment: Bins are distributed across a vertical ATR-based range, and their width is adjusted based on the percentage of total swing volume. The volume fill direction is adapted to the swing’s slope for visually aligned plotting. POC Detection and Extension: The highest volume bin in each swing is identified as the Point of Control (POC). This level is plotted with a thicker line and extended horizontally into the future as a key reaction level. Automatic POC Expiry on Price Interaction: POC lines are continuously extended unless breached by price. When price crosses the POC level, the extension is terminated — signaling that the level may have been absorbed. Clean Volume Bin Visualization: Bin colors range from green (low volume) to blue (higher volume), with the POC always marked in red by default for easy identification. Volume percentages are optionally labeled at each bin level. Flexible Swing Profile Parameters: Users can control: Number of volume bins Bin width Channel width (ATR factor) Visibility of the swing channel or POC lines Efficient Memory Handling: Old POC lines and volume profiles are automatically removed from memory after a threshold to keep charts clean and performant. ⯁ USAGE Use ZigZag swings to define market structure visually. Analyze volume profile around each swing to understand where most trading activity occurred. Use POC extensions as dynamic support/resistance zones for entries, stops, or take-profits. Watch for price interaction with extended POC lines — breaks may suggest absorbed liquidity or breakout potential. Use the ATR-based channel width to adapt profiles based on market volatility. ⯁ CONCLUSION ZigZag Volume Profile offers a powerful fusion of structure and volume. By plotting detailed volume profiles over each price swing and extending the POC as actionable S/R levels, this tool provides deep insight into market participation zones — giving traders a tactical edge in both ranging and trending environments.

Candle Channel█ OVERVIEW The "Candle Channel" indicator is a versatile technical analysis tool that plots a price channel based on the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of candlestick midpoints. The channel bands, calculated based on candlestick volatility, form dynamic support and resistance levels that adapt to price movements. The script generates signals for reversals from the bands and SMA breakouts, making it useful for both short-term and long-term traders. By adjusting the SMA length, the channel can vary in nature—from a wide channel encapsulating price movement to narrower support/resistance or trend-following bands. The channel width can be further customized using a scaling parameter, allowing adaptation to different trading styles and markets. █ MECHANISM Band Calculation The indicator is based on the following calculations: Candlestick Midpoint: Calculated as the arithmetic average of the candle’s high and low prices: (high + low) / 2. Simple Moving Average (SMA): The average of candlestick midpoints over a specified length (default: 20 candles), forming the channel’s centerline. Average Candle Height: Calculated as the average difference between the high and low prices (high - low) over the same SMA length, serving as a measure of market volatility. Band Scaling: The user specifies a percentage of the average candle height (default: 200%), which is multiplied by the average height to create an offset. The upper band is SMA + offset, and the lower band is SMA - offset.Example: For an average candle height of 10 points and 200% scaling, the offset is 20 points, meaning the bands are ±20 points from the SMA. Channel Characteristics: The SMA length determines the channel’s dynamics. Shorter SMA values (10–30) create a wide channel that contains price movement, ideal for scalping or short-term trading. Longer SMA values (above 30, e.g., 50–100) transform the channel into narrower support/resistance or trend-following bands, suitable for longer-term analysis. Band scaling further adjusts the channel width to match market volatility. Signals Reversal from Bands: Signals are generated when the price closes outside the band (above the upper or below the lower) and then returns to the channel, indicating a potential trend reversal. SMA Breakout: Signals are generated when the price crosses the SMA upward (bullish signal) or downward (bearish signal), suggesting potential trend changes. Visualization Centerline: The SMA of candlestick midpoints, displayed as a thin line. Channel Bands: Upper and lower channel boundaries, with customizable colors. Fill: Options include a gradient (smooth color transition between bands) or solid color. The fill can also be disabled for greater clarity. █ FEATURES AND SETTINGS SMA Length: Determines the moving average period (default: 20). Values of 10–30 are suitable for a wide channel containing price movement, ideal for short-term timeframes. Longer values (e.g., 50–100) create narrower support/resistance or trend-following bands, better suited for higher timeframes. Band Scaling: Percentage of the average candle height (default: 200%). Adjusts the channel width to match market volatility—smaller values (e.g., 50–100%) for narrower bands, larger values (e.g., 200–300%) for wider channels. Fill Type: Gradient, solid, or no fill, allowing customization to user preferences. Colors: Options to change the colors of bands, fill, and signals for better readability. Signals: Options to enable/disable reversal signals from bands and SMA breakout signals. █ HOW TO USE Add the script to your chart in TradingView by clicking "Add to Chart" in the Pine Editor. Adjust input parameters in the script settings: SMA Length: Set to 10–30 for a wide channel containing price movement, suitable for scalping or short-term trading. Set above 30 (e.g., 50–100) for narrower support/resistance or trend-following bands. Band Scaling: Adjust the channel width to market volatility. Smaller values (50–100%) for tighter support/resistance bands, larger values (200–300%) for wider channels containing price movement. Fill Type and Colors: Choose a gradient for aesthetics or a solid fill for clarity. Analyze signals: Reversal Signals: Triangles above (bearish) or below (bullish) candles indicate potential reversal points. SMA Breakout Signals: Circles above (bearish) or below (bullish) candles indicate trend changes. Test the indicator on different instruments and timeframes to find optimal settings for your trading style. █ LIMITATIONS The indicator may generate false signals in highly volatile or consolidating markets. On low-liquidity charts (e.g., exotic currency pairs), the bands may be less reliable. Effectiveness depends on properly matching parameters to the market and timeframe.

Linear Mean Reversion Strategy📘 Strategy Introduction: Linear Mean Reversion with Fixed Stop This strategy implements a simple yet powerful mean reversion model that assumes price tends to oscillate around a dynamic average over time. It identifies statistically significant deviations from the moving average using a z-score, and enters trades expecting a return to the mean. 🧠 Core Logic: A z-score is calculated by comparing the current price to its moving average, normalized by standard deviation, over a user-defined half-life window. Trades are entered when the z-score crosses a threshold (e.g., ±1), signaling overbought or oversold conditions. The strategy exits positions either when price reverts back near the mean (z-score close to 0), or if a fixed stop loss of 100 points is hit, whichever comes first. ⚙️ Key Features: Dynamic mean and volatility estimation using moving average and standard deviation Configurable z-score thresholds for entry and exit Position size scaling based on z-score magnitude Fixed stop loss to control risk and avoid prolonged drawdowns 🧪 Use Case: Ideal for range-bound markets or assets that exhibit stationary behavior around a mean, this strategy is especially useful on assets with mean-reverting characteristics like currency pairs, ETFs, or large-cap stocks. It is best suited for traders looking for short-term reversions rather than long-term trends.

TZtraderTZtrader This is a TrendZones version with features to set stoploss and targets in short and long positions meant for use in intraday charts. It aims to provide signals for opening and closing long and short positions. In the comments under the TrendZones publication several people expressed a need for features for a short position similar to those for a long position as implemented in TrendZones, some want to use it for scalping, some asked for alerts. When I proposed to create a version for day trading with target lines based on ATR, several people liked the idea. Full disclosure: I don’t do day trading, because, after I lost a lot of money, I had to promise my wife to stay away from it. I restrict myself to long term investing in stocks which are in uptrend. However I understand what a day trader needs. I gather from my experience that day trading or scalping is an attempt to earn something by opening a position in the morning and close, reopen and close it again during the day with a profit. It is usually done with leveraged instruments like CFD’s, futures, options, and what have you. Opening and closing positions is done within minutes, so the trader needs a quick and efficient way to set proper stoploss and target. TZtrader supports this by showing only three or four numbers on the price bar: The price of the instrument, The logical stop level (gray or green or maroon dots), and the target level (navy). All other numbers are suppressed to prevent mistakes. Also a clear feedback for current settings at the top-center of the pane and an alert feedback at bottom that flashes alerts during the development of the current bar and gives suppression status. The script First I made a bare bones version of TrendZones to which I added code for long and short trading setups and a bare setup for no position. The code for the logical stops in long setup had to be reviewed, after which this became the basis for stops in short setup. Then I added code for 10 alert messages, which was a hassle, because this is the first time I coded alerts and the first time I used an array as a stack to avoid a complicated if-then construction. During testing the array caused a runtime error which I solved by adding ‘array.clear’ to the code, also I discovered that in TradingView separate alerts have to be created for all three setups - short, long and bare. Flipping setups is done in the inputs with a dropdown menu because Pine Script has no function for a clickable button. One visual with three setups. The visual has the TrendZones structure: Three near parallel very smooth curves, which border the moderate uptrend (green) and downtrend (orange) zone over and under the curve in the middle, the COG (Center Of Gravity). Where the price breaks out of these curves, strong trend zones show up over and under the curves, respectively strong uptrend (blue) and strong downtrend (red). Three setups were made clearly different to avoid confusion and to provide oversight in case of multiple trades going on simultaneously which I imagine are monitored in one screen. You have to see which one is long, which short and which have no position. The long setup should not trigger short signals, nor should the short trigger long signals nor the bare setup exclusive long or short signals. The Long setup is default, shown on the example chart. In this setup the Stoploss suggestions (green, gray and maroon dots) are under the price bars and the target line (navy) at a set distance above the High Border. A zone with a width of 1 ATR is drawn under the Low Border. In this setup 5 specific alerts are provided The Short setup has the Stoploss suggestions over the price bars, the target line at a set distance under the Low Border. A zone with a width of 1 ATR is drawn above the High Border. This setup also has 5 specific alerts. The Bare setup has no Stoploss suggestions, no target line and supports 4 alerts, 2 in common with the Long setup and 2 with Short. The table below gives a summary of scripted alerts: Setup = Where = When = Purpose Long, Bare = Green Zone = Bars come from lower zones = Uptrend starts Long, Bare = Green Zone = Sideways ends in uptrend = Uptrend resumes Long = COG = First crossing = Uptrend might end warning Long = Orange Zone = Bars come from higher zones = Uptrend ended take care Long = Red Zone = Bars come from higher zones = Strong downtrend->close Long Short, Bare = Orange Zone = Bars come from higher zones = Downtrend starts Short, Bare = Orange Zone = Sideways ends in downtrend = Downtrend resumes Short = COG = First crossing = Downtrend might end warning Short = Green Zone = Bars come from lower zones = Downtrend ended take care Short = Blue Zone = Bars come from lower zones = Strong uptrend -> close short You can use script alerts in TradingView by clicking the clock in the sidebar, then ‘create alert’ or plus, as condition you choose ‘Tztrader’ in the dialog box, then the “Any alert() function call” option (the first item in the list). The script lets the valid alert trigger by TradingView after the bar is completed, this can differ from the flashed messages during its formation. When you create alerts in Tradingview, I advice to do that for each setup, then to make only the alert active which matches the current setup, pause the other ones. Suppressing false and annoying signals The script has two ways to suppress such signals, which have to do with the numbers in the alert feedback. The numbers left and right of the message with a colored background, depict the zones in which the previous (left) and current (right) bar move. 1 is the strong downtrend zone (red), 2 the moderate downtrend zone (orange), 3 the sideways zones (gray), 4 the COG (gray), 5 the moderate uptrend zone (green), 6 the strong uptrend zone (blue), 7 something went wrong with assigning a zone (black). In extensive testing the number 7 never occurs, because I catch that error in the code. The idea is that an alert is only triggered if the previous bar was in a different zone. When the bars are in the same zone, no alert is possible. This way all annoying signals are suppressed and long, short and bare get the appropriate alerts. The third number is a counter. It counts how often the COG is crossed without touching the outer curves. The counter will reset to zero when the upper or lower curve is touched. When the count is 1 you have zone situation 4 and appropriate alerts are flashed. When the count is 2 or higher, a sideways situation (3) is called and while the recrossings are going on, no alerts can be flashed. This suppresses false signals. The ATR zone and curves are brownish-gray where sideways happens(ed). When the channel is narrowed down to just the three curves, some false signals still might occur. Inputs “Setup”, default is long, drop down menu provides long, short and bare. “Target ATR”, default is 2, sets the amount of ATR for the target line. In 1 minute charts 4 seems an appropriate setting, you have to learn by experience which setting works. “show feedback …” default is on, This creates two feedback labels, a Setup feedback on top of the pane, which shows charted instrument, Setup type, Trend and timeframe of the chart. Background color of Trend feedback is green when it matches the setup, red when mismatches and gray when no match. The alert feedback at the bottom of the pane shows a number, a message and two numbers. The numbers will be explained in the chapter about false and annoying signals below. During formation of the bar, valid alerts are flashed with a blue background, otherwise the message ‘alerts for current bar suppressed’. Logical Stops The curves are the logical place to put stops, because, as these are averages of the high and low border of a Donchian channel, they signify the ‘natural’ current highest, lowest and main level in the lookback period that fit the monitored trend setup. A downtrend turns into an uptrend when a breakout of the upper curve occurs. If you are short, that is where you want to close position, so the logical place for the stoploss is the upper curve. Vice versa, when you are long, the logical stop is on the lower curve. The stops show up as green or gray dots on the curves, the green dots signify a nice entry level, the gray stops are there to suggest levels where unrealized profits might be secured, the maroon dots indicate that the trend mismatches the setup. COG versus other lines Any line used to identify a trend, be it some MA or some other line, is interpreted the same way: When the bars move above the line there is an uptrend and when below, a downtrend. COG is not different in that sense. If you put such a line in the same chart as TZtrader, you can see situations in which the other line shows uptrend or downtrend earlier than COG, also some other lines, e.g. Hull MA, are very good at showing tops and bottoms, while COG ignores these. On the other hand the other lines are usually a little nervous and let you shake out of position too soon. Just like the other lines, COG gives false signals when it is near horizontal. The advantage of the placement COG is the tolerance for pull backs. This way TZtrader keeps you longer in the trend. Such pull backs are often ‘flags’ which are interpreted in TA as confirming the trend. Tztrader aims to get you in position reasonably soon when a trend begins and out of position as soon as the trend turns against you. The placement of COG is done with a fundamentally different algorithm than other lines as it is not an average of prices, but the middle of two averages of borders of a Donchian channel. This gives the two zones between the curves the same quality as the two zones above and below the middle line of a standard Donchian Channel. A multi timeframe application. In this scenario you put a 5 minutes and 1 minute chart with Tztrader side by side. If the 5 minutes shows uptrend, set the 1 minute on long trading and open positions when the trend matches uptrend en close when it mismatches. Don’t open short positions. Once the 5 minute changes to downtrend, set Tztrader in the 1 minute to short trading and open positions when the trend matches downtrend and close when it mismatches. The idea is that in a long ‘context’, provided by the 5 minutes, the uptrends in the 1 minute will last longer and go further, vice versa for the short ‘context’. This way you do swing trading in the 5 minute in a smart way, maximizing profits. You can do this with any timeframe pairs with a proportion of around 5:1, 4:1, 6:1, like e.g. 60 minutes and 15 minutes or weeks and days (5 trading days in a week). Dear day-traders, may this tool be helpful and may your days be blessed. Take care

BTC 1m Chop Top/Bottom Reversal (Stable Entries)Strategy Description: BTC 5m Chop Top/Bottom Reversal (Stable Entries) This strategy is engineered to capture precise reversal points during Bitcoin’s choppy or sideways price action on the 5-minute timeframe. It identifies short-term tops and bottoms using a confluence of volatility bands, momentum indicators, and price structure, optimized for high-probability scalping and intraday reversals. Core Logic: Volatility Filter: Uses an EMA with ATR bands to define overextended price zones. Momentum Divergence: Confirms reversals using RSI and MACD histogram shifts. Price Action Filter: Requires candle confirmation in the direction of the trade. Locked Signal Logic: Prevents repaints and disappearing trades by confirming signals only once per bar. Trade Parameters: Short Entry: Above upper band + overbought RSI + weakening MACD + bearish candle Long Entry: Below lower band + oversold RSI + strengthening MACD + bullish candle Take Profit: ±0.75% Stop Loss: ±0.4% This setup is tuned for traders using tight risk control and leverage, where execution precision and minimal drawdown tolerance are critical.

Auto Channel [SciQua]Auto Channel Purpose Auto Channel finds the single best parallel price channel from recent price action and keeps it updated in real time. It uses ZigZag pivots to build candidate channels, scores each candidate for quality, then plots the winner. When price closes outside the channel, the script flags a breakout and can fire alerts. How it works 1. ZigZag pivots The script uses TradingView’s TradingView/ZigZag/7 library to generate a stream of swing highs and lows based on a percentage reversal threshold and a leg depth. These pivots are the only points the channel logic evaluates, which keeps the search fast and focused on structure rather than noise. 2. Channel candidates From the most recent pivots, the script forms all combinations of two swing highs and two swing lows. It computes a slope for the high line and a slope for the low line and requires that they be nearly parallel within a user-defined tolerance. 3. Quality scoring and selection For every valid candidate, the script checks the recent pivot segments against the trial channel and computes: Inside ratio: fraction of tested pivots that sit fully inside the channel after applying the tolerance buffer. Violation sum: total magnitude of the breaches for any pivots outside the channel. Current width: distance between upper and lower lines at the current bar. The “best” channel is chosen by: 1. highest inside ratio 2. then widest current width 3. then smallest violation sum 4. Plot and projection The upper and lower lines are anchored to the chosen pivot pairs and extend to the left. The script also projects each line to the current bar to compute the live upper and lower channel prices. Those levels drive the breakout checks and alerts. 5. Breakouts and alerts A breakout is detected when the bar closes above the projected upper line or closes below the projected lower line, after applying the tolerance buffer. Triangle markers highlight fresh breakouts, and you can enable alert conditions to automate notification or strategy handoff. Inputs: ZigZag Price deviation for reversals (%) Default 0.2. Larger values produce fewer, larger swings. Smaller values produce more, smaller swings. Pivot legs Default 2. Controls the lookback depth ZigZag uses to confirm pivots. ZigZag Color Visual only. Tip: If you are not seeing a stable channel, increase the ZigZag percentage to reduce minor swings. Channel search Number of recent pivots to consider Default 12. Higher values search more history and try more channel combinations. Lower values make the search faster and more reactive. Max slope difference for parallel Default 0.0005. Maximum allowed difference between the upper and lower line slopes. Smaller values enforce stricter parallelism. Max price tolerance outside channel Default 0.0. A buffer added to the channel boundaries during validation and breakout checks. Use this to ignore tiny wicks that poke the lines. Minimum inside to outside pivots ratio for valid channel (0.00–1.00) Default 1.00. Require that at least this fraction of checked pivots lie inside the channel. For a more permissive fit, try 0.60 to 0.85. Styling Upper Line Color Lower Line Color Breakout Above Color Breakout Below Color Plots and visuals Upper channel line Lower channel line Triangle markers on the bar that first confirms a close outside the channel, above or below. Lines extend left from their pivot anchors. Projection to the current bar is used internally to test for breakouts and to set alerts. Alerts The script defines two alert conditions: Close Above Channel Triggers when the bar closes above the projected upper line plus tolerance. Close Below Channel Triggers when the bar closes below the projected lower line minus tolerance. Practical usage Trend channels In a steady trend, a high inside ratio with a moderate width often highlights the dominant channel. Consider trend entries near the lower line in an uptrend or near the upper line in a downtrend, with exits or stops beyond the opposite boundary. Breakout trades Combine the channel breakout alert with volume or a separate momentum filter. The tolerance input helps avoid false triggers from small wicks. Tuning for timeframe and symbol • Faster markets or lower timeframes usually benefit from a larger ZigZag percentage and a smaller pivot count. • Slower markets or higher timeframes can use more pivots and a tighter slope difference to enforce cleaner geometry. Notes and limitations Channels are derived from ZigZag pivots. If your ZigZag settings change, the detected channel will also change. The script plots only the single best channel at any time to keep the chart clean. Breakout markers appear on confirmed bars. For historical bars, markers appear only where a breakout would have been confirmed at that time. Lines extend left from their anchors. The script projects the lines internally to the current bar for checks and alerts. License and attribution License Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International (CC BY-NC 4.0).

There may not be a valid pair of highs and lows that pass the slope, inside ratio, and tolerance checks. Loosen the constraints by increasing Max slope difference, lowering Minimum inside ratio, or increasing the ZigZag percentage. The channel looks too narrow or too wide? Adjust Number of recent pivots and Minimum inside ratio. A higher inside ratio tends to favor cleaner, sometimes wider channels. A lower ratio may admit narrower, more reactive channels. How can I reduce false breakout alerts? Increase Max price tolerance outside channel to ignore small wicks. Add a volume or momentum confirmation in your personal alert workflow.
