blackOrb PriceblackOrb's Aspiration: Enhancing the Functionality of Area Charts
At its core, an area chart analysis serves as the foundational structure for blackOrb Price. Area charts can be seen as an addition to conventional price charts. Unlike price line charts, which connect closing prices with lines, an area chart fills the space between high and low prices, creating a visual representation of price ranges. This approach can offer several advantages, particularly in assessing price volatility and price dynamics.
A wider area between high and low suggests high volatility, while a narrower area indicates lower volatility. The orientation of the closing price concerning the high-low range provides insights into whether buyers or sellers are exerting influence on the market.
Combined with the following elements, this chart tool can support comprehensive data-driven trading analysis:
- Integrated moving averages for price dynamic insights
- Zigzag pivot identification for price level insights
- Stochastic lookback analysis for turning point insights
- Ghost mode for comparative insights
Technical Methodology
I. Integrated Moving Averages for Price Dynamic Insights
Incorporating various MA alternatives allows traders to gain insights into not only price dynamics but also their underlying strength, which is reflected in trading activity. This strength is visually depicted by the derived price line within blackOrb's Price Area Chart.
Among the array of MA alternatives, VWMA stands out as a suitable implementation choice for integrating volume data. It goes beyond the scope of a simple moving average, considering both price and volume in its calculation, as shown in the following formula:
(C1 x V1 + C2 x V2 + ... + CN x Vn) / (V1 + V2 + ... + Vn)
II. Zigzag Pivot Identification for Price Level Insights
Zigzag Pivot Identification can be a valuable tool for recognizing possible price movements and potential turning points. It operates by pinpointing pivotal moments where prices alter their course. Essential components of this method involve comparing time units both to the left and right within a designated price dynamic phase, effectively defining the search range for pivotal points.
For instance, in the analysis below, the search is for the highest price point that hasn't been surpassed in the last 10 time units to the left and 10 time units to the right:
ta.pivothigh(10, 10)
The lookback variables analyze price points by simultaneously examining a specified number of time units before and after a potential pivot point as the central reference. A pivot is identified when a price point remains unbreached throughout this period.
Note: This method retroactively validates structures, implying that this tool may redraw or adjust its values as price data evolves. This leads to inconsistency and a lack of predictability.
III. Stochastic Lookback Analysis for Turning Point Insights
The stochastic calculation methodology of this feature centers around the following formula:
100 * (close - lowest(low, length)) / (highest(high, length) - lowest(low, length))
This key formula employs a stochastic calculation methodology that assesses the percentage deviation of the closing price from the lowest low over a specified timeframe (length), relative to the span between the highest high and the lowest low. The outcome is normalized within a range of 0 to 100, providing insights into the relative position of the closing price within the high-low range. Traders can define the specific periods over which the stochastic calculation is performed.
Based on this stochastic analysis, the indicator integrates area chart coloring, affording users the flexibility to adjust the sensitivity of area chart coloring according to customized stochastic look-back evaluation phases. Consequently, the coloration by length evaluation can mirror a comprehension of market dynamics.
Note: However, it's important to recognize that the efficacy of evaluation coloring might be compromised during periods of lateral price movement, characterized by less prominent market trends.
IV. Ghost Mode for Comparative Insights
Unveiling convergences and divergences, the Ghost Mode overlays two price charts, which can reveal price trajectories and reactions (e.g. Apple stock's potential response to the NASDAQ 100 Technology Sector Index).
Note: This approach may not capture nuanced correlations during intricate market scenarios.
Note on Usability
This tool is an intricately designed area chart, meticulously created to serve as a fundamental canvas for the seamless integration of other more granular trading indicators.
blackOrb Price can have synergies with blackOrb Candle as both indicators combined can give a bigger picture for supporting comprehensive and multifaceted data-driven trading analysis.
This indicator isn't intended for standalone trading application. Instead, it offers an alternative approach to traditional area charts, serving as a supplementary tool for orientation within broader trading strategies. Irrespective of market conditions, it can harmonize with a wider range of trading styles and instruments/trading pairs/indices like Stocks, Gold, EURUSDSPX500, GBPUSD, BTCUSD and Oil.
Inspiration and Publishing
Taking genesis from the inspirations amongst others provided by TradingView Pine Script Wizard Kodify, blackOrb Price is a multi-encompassing script meticulously forged from scratch. It aspires to furnish a comprehensive area chart approach, borne out of personal experiences and a strong dedication in supporting the trading community. We eagerly await valuable feedback to refine and further enhance this tool.

The Next Pivot [Kioseff Trading]Hello!
This script "The Next Pivot" uses various similarity measures to compare historical price sequences to the current price sequence!
Features
Find the most similar price sequence up to 100 bars from the current bar
Forecast price path up to 250 bars
Forecast ZigZag up to 250 bars
Spearmen
Pearson
Absolute Difference
Cosine Similarity
Mean Squared Error
Kendall
Forecasted linear regression channel
The image above shows/explains some of the indicator's capabilities!
The image above highlights the projected zig zag (pivots) pattern!
Colors are customizable (:
Additionally, you can plot a forecasted LinReg channel.
Should load times permit it, the script can search all bar history for a correlating sequence. This won't always be possible, contingent on the forecast length, correlation length, and the number of bars on the chart.
Reasonable Assessment
The script uses various similarity measures to find the "most similar" price sequence to what's currently happening. Once found, the subsequent price move (to the most similar sequence) is recorded and projected forward.
So,
1: Script finds most similar price sequence
2: Script takes what happened after and projects forward
While this may be useful, the projection is simply the reaction to a possible one-off "similarity" to what's currently happening. Random fluctuations are likely and, if occurring, similarities between the current price sequence and the "most similar" sequence are plausibly coincidental.
That said, if you have any ideas on cool features to add please let me know!
Thank you (:
Zigzag Trend-based Color [SteinG]Zigzag Indicator with Trend-based Color Coding and Info Table
This indicator is forked from Trendoscope's Recursive Zigzag
The Zigzag Indicator with Trend-based Color Coding and Info Table is a powerful tool for technical analysis, designed to help you identify significant price swings, visualize trends, and analyze pivot points with ease. This advanced indicator offers enhanced functionalities and improved visual representation.
The primary purpose of the Zigzag Indicator is to identify and highlight important price reversals, commonly referred to as pivot points, in a given chart. These pivot points are essential in recognizing trend changes and potential market turning points. With the Zigzag Indicator, you can quickly identify these pivotal moments and gain valuable insights into market dynamics.
One of the standout features of this indicator is the color coding applied to the Zigzag line, which intuitively reflects the trend associated with each pivot point. The color scheme is as follows:
- Green : Indicates an upward trend, representing a bullish movement in the price.
- Lime : Represents a retracement during an upward trend, indicating a temporary pullback before the uptrend resumes.
- Red : Signifies a downward trend, indicating a bearish movement in the price.
- Orange : Represents a retracement during a downward trend, indicating a temporary bounce before the downtrend resumes.
This color coding allows you to easily visualize the prevailing market sentiment and make more informed trading decisions accordingly.
In addition to the visual representation, the Zigzag Indicator also includes an informative table that provides essential details about each pivot point. The table presents the following information for each pivot point:
1. Pivot Value : The price level at which the pivot point occurs.
2. Direction : Indicates whether the pivot point represents an upward or downward trend.
3. Fibo Ratios : Displays the Fibonacci retracement levels between two consecutive pivot points, offering insights into potential support and resistance levels.
The inclusion of this comprehensive info table enables you to analyze pivot points more effectively, understand the underlying price dynamics, and identify key trading opportunities.
*Zig Zag Price, % Change w/RSI*With immense help from ©SimpleCryptoLife who reimagined this script for me, and to ©mmoiwgg and ©ocaptain who's ideas led to this updated version 5.
This indicator is fairly straight-forward and visually appealing because you get a running zig zag price, price % change with an added bonus - RSI. However you won't find zig zag lines but the script reacts the same by changing the inputs. The higher the value the less data points you'll see on the screen.
The main objective of this indicator is to be able to spot high and low prices easily with the price % change between the same 2 data sets. Additionally and arguably more importantly, with the RSI values associated with the high and low prices, you can spot divergences easily - meaning the price is making a higher high while conversely the RSI value at the next pop (around the same price as previous high) is lower which can mean that momentum has exhausted for the time being and a reversal could be imminent.
This script is meant only as a tool to try to enrich your trading journey and I hope it helps you become a more consistent and profitable trader. If you find it invaluable drop a like and comment. Good luck!
SuperBollingerTrend (Expo)█ Overview
The SuperBollingerTrend indicator is a combination of two popular technical analysis tools, Bollinger Bands, and SuperTrend. By fusing these two indicators, SuperBollingerTrend aims to provide traders with a more comprehensive view of the market, accounting for both volatility and trend direction. By combining trend identification with volatility analysis, the SuperBollingerTrend indicator provides traders with valuable insights into potential trend changes. It recognizes that high volatility levels often accompany stronger price momentum, which can result in the formation of new trends or the continuation of existing ones.
█ How Volatility Impacts Trends
Volatility can impact trends by expanding or contracting them, triggering trend reversals, leading to breakouts, and influencing risk management decisions. Traders need to analyze and monitor volatility levels in conjunction with trend analysis to gain a comprehensive understanding of market dynamics.
█ How to use
Trend Reversals: High volatility can result in more dramatic price fluctuations, which may lead to sharp trend reversals. For example, a sudden increase in volatility can cause a bullish trend to transition into a bearish one, or vice versa, as traders react to significant price swings.
Volatility Breakouts: Volatility can trigger breakouts in trends. Breakouts occur when the price breaks through a significant support or resistance level, indicating a potential shift in the trend. Higher volatility levels can increase the likelihood of breakouts, as they indicate stronger market momentum and increased buying or selling pressure. This indicator triggers when the volatility increases, and if the price is near a key level when the indicator alerts, it might trigger a great trend.
█ Features
Peak Signal Move
The indicator calculates the peak price move for each ZigZag and displays it under each signal. This highlights how much the market moved between the signals.
Average ZigZag Move
All price moves between two signals are stored, and the average or the median is calculated and displayed in a table. This gives traders a great idea of how much the market moves on average between two signals.
Take Profit
The Take Profit line is placed at the average or the median price move and gives traders a great idea of what they can expect in average profit from the latest signals.

GKD-C Swing Line [Loxx]Giga Kaleidoscope GKD-V Swing Line is a Confirmation module included in Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System".
█ Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System
What is Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System"?
The Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System is a trading system built on the philosophy of the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) algorithmic trading.
What is the NNFX algorithmic trading strategy?
The NNFX (No-Nonsense Forex) trading system is a comprehensive approach to Forex trading that is designed to simplify the process and remove the confusion and complexity that often surrounds trading. The system was developed by a Forex trader who goes by the pseudonym "VP" and has gained a significant following in the Forex community.
The NNFX trading system is based on a set of rules and guidelines that help traders make objective and informed decisions. These rules cover all aspects of trading, including market analysis, trade entry, stop loss placement, and trade management.
Here are the main components of the NNFX trading system:
1. Trading Philosophy: The NNFX trading system is based on the idea that successful trading requires a comprehensive understanding of the market, objective analysis, and strict risk management. The system aims to remove subjective elements from trading and focuses on objective rules and guidelines.
2. Technical Analysis: The NNFX trading system relies heavily on technical analysis and uses a range of indicators to identify high-probability trading opportunities. The system uses a combination of trend-following and mean-reverting strategies to identify trades.
3. Market Structure: The NNFX trading system emphasizes the importance of understanding the market structure, including price action, support and resistance levels, and market cycles. The system uses a range of tools to identify the market structure, including trend lines, channels, and moving averages.
4. Trade Entry: The NNFX trading system has strict rules for trade entry. The system uses a combination of technical indicators to identify high-probability trades, and traders must meet specific criteria to enter a trade.
5. Stop Loss Placement: The NNFX trading system places a significant emphasis on risk management and requires traders to place a stop loss order on every trade. The system uses a combination of technical analysis and market structure to determine the appropriate stop loss level.
6. Trade Management: The NNFX trading system has specific rules for managing open trades. The system aims to minimize risk and maximize profit by using a combination of trailing stops, take profit levels, and position sizing.
Overall, the NNFX trading system is designed to be a straightforward and easy-to-follow approach to Forex trading that can be applied by traders of all skill levels.
Core components of an NNFX algorithmic trading strategy
The NNFX algorithm is built on the principles of trend, momentum, and volatility. There are six core components in the NNFX trading algorithm:
1. Volatility - price volatility; e.g., Average True Range, True Range Double, Close-to-Close, etc.
2. Baseline - a moving average to identify price trend
3. Confirmation 1 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
4. Confirmation 2 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
5. Continuation - a technical indicator used to identify trends
6. Volatility/Volume - a technical indicator used to identify volatility/volume breakouts/breakdown
7. Exit - a technical indicator used to determine when a trend is exhausted
How does Loxx's GKD (Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System) implement the NNFX algorithm outlined above?
Loxx's GKD v1.0 system has five types of modules (indicators/strategies). These modules are:
1. GKD-BT - Backtesting module (Volatility, Number 1 in the NNFX algorithm)
2. GKD-B - Baseline module (Baseline and Volatility/Volume, Numbers 1 and 2 in the NNFX algorithm)
3. GKD-C - Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation module (Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation, Numbers 3, 4, and 5 in the NNFX algorithm)
4. GKD-V - Volatility/Volume module (Confirmation 1/2, Number 6 in the NNFX algorithm)
5. GKD-E - Exit module (Exit, Number 7 in the NNFX algorithm)
(additional module types will added in future releases)
Each module interacts with every module by passing data between modules. Data is passed between each module as described below:
GKD-B => GKD-V => GKD-C(1) => GKD-C(2) => GKD-C(Continuation) => GKD-E => GKD-BT
That is, the Baseline indicator passes its data to Volatility/Volume. The Volatility/Volume indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 1 indicator. The Confirmation 1 indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 2 indicator. The Confirmation 2 indicator passes its values to the Continuation indicator. The Continuation indicator passes its values to the Exit indicator, and finally, the Exit indicator passes its values to the Backtest strategy.
This chaining of indicators requires that each module conform to Loxx's GKD protocol, therefore allowing for the testing of every possible combination of technical indicators that make up the six components of the NNFX algorithm.
What does the application of the GKD trading system look like?
Example trading system:
Backtest: Strategy with 1-3 take profits, trailing stop loss, multiple types of PnL volatility, and 2 backtesting styles
Baseline: Hull Moving Average
Volatility/Volume: Volatility Ratio
Confirmation 1: GKD-V Swing Line as shown on the chart above
Confirmation 2: Williams Percent Range
Continuation: Fisher Transform
Exit: Rex Oscillator
Each GKD indicator is denoted with a module identifier of either: GKD-BT, GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-V, or GKD-E. This allows traders to understand to which module each indicator belongs and where each indicator fits into the GKD protocol chain.

█ GKD-V Swing Line
The swing line indicator is a technical analysis tool used in financial markets to identify the direction of a trend. It is also known as the trendline or zigzag indicator.
The swing line indicator plots a series of lines connecting the highs and lows of price movements over a given time period. Each line represents a swing high or swing low in the price action, depending on whether the trend is bullish or bearish.
In an uptrend, the swing line indicator connects each successive higher low, forming an ascending trendline. In a downtrend, the indicator connects each successive lower high, forming a descending trendline. When the trend changes direction, the indicator will create a new line to reflect the new swing high or low.
Traders use the swing line indicator to identify key levels of support and resistance, as well as potential entry and exit points for trades. A break of the trendline can signal a potential trend reversal, while a bounce off the trendline can indicate that the trend is still intact.
The swing line indicator can be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools, such as moving averages, to confirm trends and reduce false signals. It is commonly used in forex, stock, and commodity markets, and is available on most charting platforms.

Elliott Wave [LuxAlgo]The Elliott Wave indicator allows users to detect Elliott Wave (EW) impulses as well as corrective segments automatically on the chart. These are detected and displayed serially, allowing users to keep track of the evolution of an impulse or corrective wave.
Fibonacci retracements constructed from detected impulse waves are also included.
This script additionally allows users to get alerted on a wide variety of trigger conditions (see the ALERTS section below).
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Source
• "high" -> options high, close, maximum of open/close
• "low" -> options low, close, minimum of open/close
🔹 ZigZag
• The source and length are used to check whether a new Pivot Point is found.
Example:
• source = high/low, length = 10:
• There is a new pivot high when:
- previous high is higher than current high
- the highs of 10 bars prior to previous high are all lower
• These pivot points are used to form the ZigZag lines, which in their turn are used for pattern recognition
🔶 USAGE
The basic principles we use to identify Elliott Wave impulses are:
• A movement in the direction of the trend ( Motive/Impulse wave ) is divided in 5 waves (Wave 1 -> 5)
• The Corrective Wave (against the trend) is divided in 3 waves (Wave A -> C)
• The waves can be subdivided in smaller waves
• Wave 2 can’t retrace more than the beginning of Wave 1
• Wave 4 does not overlap with the price territory of Wave 1
Here we see an example:
Let's look at the development:
• 1 bar after point (5) a confirmed 5 Motive Wave pattern is found (1 -> 5; The 5 Waves can also be seen as one large Wave 1 ).
• Next, the script draws a set of Fibonacci lines, which are area's where the Corrective Wave potentially will bounce.
Here we see the fifth wave is getting larger, the previous highest point is updated, and the Wave 5 is larger than Wave 3 :
(At this point, the pattern is invalidated, and it display as dotted)
Further progression in time:
At this point, a confirmed " 3 Corrective Wave pattern " is found (a -> c)
When a new high has developed, a circle is drawn (in the same color of the lines)
However, when the bottom of the drawn box has breached, a red cross will be visualized.
Further progression:
Later on, a bearish confirmed " 5 Motive Wave pattern " is found (1 -> 5):
When a Corrective Wave becomes invalidated, the ABC pattern will display as dashed (not dotted):

Recursive Zigzag [Trendoscope]Here is an another outcome of Object Oriented Zigzag and Pattern Ecosystem of Libraries.
We already have another implementation of recursive zigzag which makes use of earlier library rzigzag . Here in this example, we make use of similar logic but leverage the new type and method based Zigzag system libraries to derive the indicator.
🎲 Design Overview
Similar to Recursive Auto Pitchfork, here too the indicator code is around 50 lines. Whereas most of the heavy lifting is done by the libraries.
🎲 Base Libraries
Base libraries are those which does not have any dependency. They form basic structures which are later used in other libraries. These libraries need to be crafted carefully so that minimal updates are done later on. Any updates on these libraries will impact all the dependent libraries and scripts.
🎯 Drawing
DrawingTypes - Defines basic drawing types Point, Line, Label, Box, Linefill and related property types.
DrawingMethods - All the methods or functionality surrounding Basic types are defined here.
🎲 Layer 1 Libraries
These are the libraries which has direct dependency on base libraries.
🎯 Zigzag
ZigzagTypes - Types required for defining Zigzag and Divergence
ZigzagMethods - Methods associated with Zigzag Type definitions.
🎲Indicator
Indicator draws zigzags based on given length. And then recursively derives next level zigzags based on previous levels. As per the utility, indicator is useful in several ways
Visualising price structure based on zigzag pivots - which in turn can help visualise patterns.
Ability to add any oscillator makes it easy to spot divergences with choice of indicators.
Programmers can use the derived values to build complex algorithms such as automatic pattern recognition.
🎯 Settings
Settings are explained via tooltips. These are very much straight forward and directly related to zigzag, oscillators and divergence.

MATHR3E WAVES█ OVERVIEW
MATHR3E WAVES automatically draws Elliott Waves on your charts with their potential associated targets.
█ CONCEPTS
Disclaimer
MATHR3E RETRACEMENTS indicator is intended for advanced traders and may fit your profile, whether you are a day trader or a long-term investor.
It was originally developed by a renowned market analyst and documented in numerous books. Among them is the author Jason Perl.
It is recommended to have read the trading techniques mentioned in the books covering this indicator beforehand.
How to use:
MATHR3E WAVES indicator can provide a roadmap of market direction that you can use to determine price targets and isolate exhaustion points from potential trends in conjunction with other indicators by the same author.
Be aware the indicator's approach is derived from the Elliott wave theory and may slightly diverge from the cardinal rules of Elliott waves.
Principle of the Elliott Wave Theory
Movement in the direction of the trend is unfolding in 5 waves (called motive wave) while any correction against the trend is in three waves (called corrective wave). The movement in the direction of the trend is labeled as 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. The three-wave correction is labeled as a, b, and c. These patterns can be seen in the long term as well as short term charts.
Wave 1:
Wave one is rarely obvious at its inception. When the first wave of a new bull market begins, the fundamental news is almost universally negative. The previous trend is considered still strongly in force. Fundamental analysts continue to revise their earnings estimates lower; the economy probably does not look strong. Sentiment surveys are decidedly bearish, put options are in vogue, and implied volatility in the options market is high. Volume might increase a bit as prices rise, but not by enough to alert many technical analysts.
Wave 2:
Wave two corrects wave one, but can never extend beyond the starting point of wave one. Typically, the news is still bad. As prices retest the prior low, bearish sentiment quickly builds, and "the crowd" haughtily reminds all that the bear market is still deeply ensconced. Still, some positive signs appear for those who are looking: volume should be lower during wave two than during wave one, prices usually do not retrace more than 61.8% of the wave one gains, and prices should fall in a three-wave pattern.
Wave 3:
Wave three is usually the largest and most powerful wave in a trend. The news is now positive and fundamental analysts start to raise earnings estimates. Prices rise quickly, corrections are short-lived and shallow. Anyone looking to "get in on a pullback" will likely miss the boat. As wave three starts, the news is probably still bearish, and most market players remain negative; but by wave three's midpoint, "the crowd" will often join the new bullish trend. Wave three often extends wave one by a ratio of 1.618:1.
Wave 4:
Wave four is typically clearly corrective. Prices may meander sideways for an extended period, and wave four typically retraces less than 38.2% of wave three. Volume is well below that of wave three. This is a good place to buy a pullback if you understand the potential ahead for wave 5. Still, fourth waves are often frustrating because of their lack of progress in the larger trend.
Wave 5:
Wave five is the final leg in the direction of the dominant trend. The news is almost universally positive and everyone is bullish. Unfortunately, this is when many average investors finally buy-in, right before the top. Volume is often lower in wave five than in wave three, and many momentum indicators start to show divergences (prices reach a new high but the indicators do not reach a new peak).
Wave A:
Corrections are typically harder to identify than impulse moves. In wave A of a bear market, the fundamental news is usually still positive. Most analysts see the drop as a correction in a still-active bull market. Some technical indicators that accompany wave A include increased volume, rising implied volatility in the options markets, and possibly a turn higher in open interest in related futures markets.
Wave B:
Prices reverse higher, which many see as a resumption of the now long-gone bull market. Those familiar with classical technical analysis may see the peak as the right shoulder of a head and shoulders reversal pattern. The volume during wave B should be lower than in wave A. By this point, fundamentals are probably no longer improving, but they most likely have not yet turned negative.
Wave C:
Prices move impulsively lower in five waves. Volume picks up, and by the third leg of wave C, almost everyone realizes that a bear market is firmly entrenched. Wave C is typically at least as large as wave A and often extends to 1.618 times wave A or beyond.

The Zig Zag Leveler IndicatorThis indicator is designed to identify potential trade setups in the market using the ZigZag indicator. It uses a combination of the ZigZag indicator and the background fill color to help identify areas of support and resistance. It also uses a pip offset to help with entries and exits. Additionally, it can generate alert conditions when the market direction changes and when a buy or sell signal is generated. This indicator can be used to help identify potential trade setups and can be customized to fit the user's trading strategy.
This indicator takes the guesswork out of trading by providing traders with an array of signals that can help identify entry and exit points. The indicator uses two sets of signals to identify price levels that indicate potential entry and exit points - one set of signals that indicate potential entry points and another set of signals that indicate potential exit points. The indicator also provides traders with a visual representation of the signals that can help them better understand the signals and make informed trading decisions. With this indicator, traders can have a better understanding of the market and have a better chance of making profitable trades.
Multi-Timeframe MA Based Zigzag[liwei666]🎲 Overview
🎯 This Zigzag indicator build based on different MA such as EMA/HMA/RMA/SMA, support multi-timeframe setting .
you can get customer zigzag indicator by change short/long ma length and high-timeframe config(5m/15m/30m/1h/2h) in any symbol.
🎲 Indicator design logic
🎯 entired logic is simple and code looks complex, I‘ll explain core logic here, code already equipped with detailed comments.
1. use close-in EMA's highest/lowest value mark as SWING High/Low when EMA crossover/under, not use func ta.pivothigh()/ta.pivotlow()
2. when EMA crossover/under plot a char as signal like ●/❄/▲, crossover get blue char crossunder get red char
3. latest zigzag line is not drawn until EMA is turned (crossover/under), but signal is realtime
4. you can see diff zigzag structure when you open high-timeframe config, then find regular pattern benefit your trading.
🎲 Settings
🎯 there are 3 group properties in script, just focus on 5 properties in 'GRP1' ,
'GRP2' and 'GRP3' are display config.
'GRP1':
MA_Type: MA type you can choose(EMA/RMA/SMA/HMA/WMA), default is EMA
short_ma_len: short MA length of your current timeframe on chart
long_ma_len: long MA length of your current timeframe on chart
htf_ma_len: MA length of high timeframe, MA type same as 'MA_Type' config
htf_ma_tf: high timeframe ma length, 15/30/60/120 minute
'GRP2':
• show_short_zz • show_long_zz • show_htf_zz:
'GRP3':
• show_short_ma_line • show_short_ma_signal
• show_long_ma_line • show_long_ma_signal
• show_htf_ma_line • show_htf_ma_signal
🎲 Usage
🎯 As we know, MA based signal usually worked fine in trend market , low volatility is unprofitable.
🎯 One of pattern as the chart show below.
1. success example : after a blue ▲ signal, entry long when blue ● signal appear, marked with green box.
2. failed example: after a blue ▲ signal, a red ▼ signal appear, marked with white box.
🎯 BoS(Break of Structure) based on ma zigzag is a good idea I'm implementing, it will be published in next script.
Additionally, I plan to publish 20 profitable strategies in 2023; this indicatior not one of them,
let‘s witness it together!
Hope this indicator will be useful for you :)
enjoy! 🚀🚀🚀
ZigCycleBarCount [MsF]Japanese below / 日本語説明は英文の後にあります。
Based on "ZigZag++" indicator by DevLucem. Thanks for the great indicator.
-------------------------
This indicator that displays the candle count (bar count) at the peaks of Zigzag .
It also displays the price of the peaks.
You can easily count candles (bars) from peak to peak. Helpful for candles (bars) in cycle theory.
This logic of the indicator is based from the mt4 zigzag indicator .
Parameter:
Depth = depth (price range)
Backstep = Period
Deviation = Percentage of how much the price has wrapped around the previous line.
Example:
Depth = 12
Backstep = 3
Deviation = 5
In this case, the price range is updated by 12 pips or more (Depth), and after 3 or more candlesticks line up (Backstep), if the price deviates from the previous line by 5% or more (Deviation), a peak is added.
-------------------------

頂点の価格も表示します。
頂点から頂点までのローソク(バー)を容易にカウントすることができます。
サイクル理論のローソク(バー)に役立ちます。
Zigzagロジック自体はMT4のzigzagインジケータを流用しています。
<パラメータ>
Depth=深さ(値幅)
Backstep=期間
Deviation=価格がどれだけ直前のラインの折り返したかの割合
例:
Depth=12
Backstep=3
Deviation=5
この場合、値幅を12pips以上更新し(Depth)、ローソク足が3本以上並んだ後(Backstep)、価格が直前のラインの5%以上折り返せば(Deviation)、頂点を付けます。

Channel Based Zigzag [HeWhoMustNotBeNamed]🎲 Concept
Zigzag is built based on the price and number of offset bars. But, in this experiment, we build zigzag based on different bands such as Bollinger Band, Keltner Channel and Donchian Channel. The process is simple:
🎯 Derive bands based on input parameters
🎯 High of a bar is considered as pivot high only if the high price is above or equal to upper band.
🎯 Similarly low of a bar is considered as pivot low only if low price is below or equal to lower band.
🎯 Adding the pivot high/low follows same logic as that of regular zigzag where pivot high is always followed by pivot low and vice versa.
🎯 If the new pivot added is of same direction as that of last pivot, then both pivots are compared with each other and only the extreme one is kept. (Highest in case of pivot high and lowest in case of pivot low)
🎯 If a bar has both pivot high and pivot low - pivot with same direction as previous pivot is added to the list first before adding the pivot with opposite direction.
🎲 Use Cases
Can be used for pattern recognition algorithms instead of standard zigzag. This will help derive patterns which are relative to bands and channels.
Example: John Bollinger explains how to manually scan double tap using Bollinger Bands in this video: www.youtube.com This modified zigzag base can be used to achieve the same using algorithmic means.
🎲 Settings
Few simple configurations which will let you select the band properties. Notice that there is no zigzag length here. All the calculations depend on the bands.
With bands display, indicator looks something like this
Note that pivots do not always represent highest/lowest prices. They represent highest/lowest price relative to bands.
As mentioned many times, application of zigzag is not for buying at lower price and selling at higher price. It is mainly used for pattern recognition either manually or via algorithms. Lets build new Harmonic, Chart patterns, Trend Lines using the new zigzag?
Moving Average Based Zig ZagMoving Average Based Zig Zag differs from the traditional Zig Zag indicator in that pivot points are determined by a moving average, Volume Weighted Hull Moving Average, rather than looking for the highest or lowest point in a left / right period.
Settings
Source: the source for the pivot points.
Moving Average Length: the length of the Volume Weighted Hull Moving Average, increase for longer zig zags, decrease for shorter zig zags.
Usage
Like all Zig Zag indicators, the Moving Average Based Zig Zag is not intended to be used as a live trading tool. This indicator is intended to be an alternative way of determining pivot points on your chart. Pivot points can be used for a multitude of different analytical techniques. One may use pivot points in order to draw potential support and resistance lines, trend lines or chart patterns. Additionally, pivot points can be used to determine variations of highs and lows important to market structure analysis such as break of structure or change of character.
Details
The moving average used is a Volume Weighted Hull Moving Average, this particular moving average was used due to it's relatively low-lag characteristics when compared to an Exponential Moving Average, additionally by considering volume in the moving average calculation, insignificant pivot points can be further filtered.
Rather than using built-in functions `ta.pivothigh()` and `ta.pivotlow()` to determine pivot points, this indicator waits for the moving average to pivot then searches for the highest or lowest value from the bar index of the moving average pivot to the bar index of the previous found price pivot. This method of determining pivots provides a more dynamic approach to determining pivot points.
Zig Zag Ratio Simplified█ OVERVIEW
This indicator was to show ratio between zig zag. Ideally to find Fibonacci Retracement / Projection, Harmonic Patterns, ABCD, Elliot Wave and etc.

█ FEATURES
Table can positioned by any position and font size can be resized.
█ USAGE / TIPS EXAMPLES (Description explained in each image)
Trend/Retracement - ZigZag - New wayZigZag for Trend and Retracements - New way
It's another way to plot ZigZag based on lookback period for trend and % of trend lookback period to plot retracements.
█ OVERVIEW
Plot ZigZag, Trend lines, Retracements, Support levels, Resistance levels
█ Objective:
Draw ZigZag lines along with unbroken support and resistance levels. ZigZag lines are drawn for main trend and the retracements.
Main Trend – This is calculated based on lookback period.
Retracements – Retracements are calculated as 25% of main trend.
Support and Resistance line: The indicator draws 2 types of support and resistance lines
1. Un-broken – Once formed (plotted), these are the support and resistance which are not yet broken
2. Tested – One can also choose to see support and resistance lines which are tested but not broken. Tested support/resistance are those levels which are touched by high/low price but close price has not crossed the level.
█ How main trend point is calculated:
E.g.
Chart timeframe = 15m
Lookback period = 250
Retracement = 25% of main trend ( 25% of 250 = 62 )
A price point on a chart is considered as trend point if distance between current price and previous highest price is 250 candles
A price point is considered as a retracement if distance between current price and previous highest price is 62 candles. Please note retracements are calculated only after finding a main trend point.
█ Input parameters:
Zigzag Parameters
Use predefined Lookback – If checked pre-defined timeframe-based lookback parameters are used.
Trend lookback candles – If ‘Use predefined Lookback’ is unchecked then this value is used as lookback period.
Retracement % of look back candles– If ‘Use predefined Lookback’ is unchecked then this value is used for calculating retracement lookback period
Mark retracements – If unchecked only main trend lines are plotted
Plot support/resistance – To plot support/resistance levels
Show support/resistance tested lines – If checked tested support/resistance liens are shown on the chart
█ TF based Lookback period config (Defaults are set as specified below, One can change these defaults to use different lookback periods)
The defaults set here are used based on the chart timeframe. e.g. if chart timeframe is changed from say 15m to 60m then 60m chart defaults (i.e. trend lookback = 90) are used to plot the trend and the retracements. At the bottom-right of the chart, parameters used for plotting are displayed all the time.
Timeframe in minute – Default = 5m
Trend lookback candles – Default = 375 (~ 5 days of data)
Timeframe in minute – Default = 15m
Trend lookback candles – Default = 250 (~10 days of data)
Timeframe in minute – Default = 60m
Trend lookback candles = Default = 90 (~ 15 days of data)
Trend lookback candles for timeframe 'D' – Default = 30 (~1 month data)
Trend lookback candles for timeframe 'W' – Default = 21 (~6 months data)
Trend lookback candles for timeframe 'M' – Default = 12 (~1year data)
Retracement % of look back candles – Default = 25%
█ When and where one can use this indicator (Refer to chart examples)
To view support and resistance based on lookback period
To view ZigZag lines
One can use it to find chart patterns easily
Trend and retracement lines can help in drawing Elliott waves.
█ Chart examples:
1. Chart patterns can be easily identified - One can disable the candle charts which will help to identify and draw chart patterns easily
2. Trend and retracement lines can also help is analyzing charts (e.g. Elliott Waves can be marked based on trend lines)
3. Tested but not broken support and resistance lines can be viewed
4. You can select 'NOT' to plot tested support and resistance lines
5. Uncheck the Mark retracements to plot main trend lines (Retracements are not marked)
RSI + MA, LinReg, ZZ (HH HL LH LL), Div, Ichi, MACD and TSI HistRelative Strength Index with Moving Average, Linear Regression, Zig Zag (Highs and Lows), Divergence, Ichimoku Cloud, Moving Average Convergence Divergence and True Strength Index Histogram
This script is based on zdmre's RSI script, I revamped a lot of things and added a few indicators from ParkF's RSI script.
Disable Labels in the Style tab and the histogram if you don't enlarge the indicator and it seems too small.
Look to buy in the oversold area and bounce of the support of the linear regression.
Look to sell in the overbought area and bounce of the resistance of the linear regression.
Look for retracement to the moving average or horizontal lines, and divergences for potential reversal.
RSI
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a well versed momentum based oscillator which is used to measure the speed (velocity) as well as the change (magnitude) of directional price movements.
Moving Average
Moving Average (MA) is a good way to gauge momentum as well as to confirm trends, and define areas of support and resistance.
Linear Regression
The Linear Regression indicator visualizes the general price trend of a specific part of the chart based on the Linear Regression calculation.
Zig Zag (Highs and Lows)
The Zig Zag indicator is used to identify price trends, and in doing so plots points on the chart to mark whenever prices reverse by a larger percentage point than a predetermined variable or marker.
Divergence
The divergence indicator warns traders and technical analysts of changes in a price trend, oftentimes that it is weakening or changing direction.
Ichimoku Cloud
The Ichimoku Cloud is a package of multiple technical indicators that signal support, resistance, market trend, and market momentum.
MACD and TSI Histogram
MACD can be used to identify aspects of a security's overall trend.
The True Strength Index indicator is a momentum oscillator designed to detect, confirm or visualize the strength of a trend.
RSI TrendRSI Hull Trend is a hybrid indicator with RSI of HULL Signal. The Hull MA is combined with RSI to see if the Hull MA Buy/Sell Signal is in overbought or oversold condition. Buy Sell Signals are plotted based on settings of OB/OS or RSI. This indicator is very useful to see if the Trend is in Exhaustion or Beginning of a Trend. Entry and Exit conditions can be more precise based on OB/OS condition of price action. In addition normal RSI trend is plotted with trend color from Hull MA. Best Performance with Heiken Ashi Candles.
