Candle Body Support/Resistance [LuxAlgo]The Candle Body Support/Resistance indicator is a tool that provides Support/Resistance levels from high-volatility candles, a concept originally described by Steve Nison in "Beyond Candlesticks".
Users can define the candle body percentage used to set the detected support/resistance levels. Occurrences of price testing the returned levels are highlighted using user-customizable dots.
🔶 USAGE
Support/Resistance levels are drawn from volatile candles, that is candles having a body (range between opening and closing price) whose magnitude is larger than the Volatility Threshold , which is determined by the multiplicative factor of an ATR (Average True Range) using a user set length.
The level starts from the opening price +/- a percentage of the open-close range. Users can adjust the percentage of the candle body used as support/resistance levels respectively, with higher percentage values returning levels prone to get reached sooner by the price.
A test is considered valid when a wick passes through the Support/Resistance level while the closing price is not breaking it.
Two modes are included, Trailing and Historical , both affecting the displayed elements of the indicator, these are described in the sub-section below.
🔹 Historical
The Historical Mode will draw a separate line from every Volatile Candle . When this line is tested, a dot will be drawn.
In the above example, the red resistance line was tested once until a bullish volatile candle formed, which closed just below the resistance level. The resistance level was tested again, after which the newly created support level was broken quickly, and the price decreased. These levels proved helpful later, acting as resistance/support levels (illustrated by the extra manually drawn dashed white lines).
To prevent cluttering Support/Resistance , lines will be deleted when the line is mitigated and hasn't been tested.
When a Support/Resistance line reaches its Maximum Line Length , it will also be deleted when it has not been tested.
🔹 Trailing
When a new volatile candle of the same type (bullish/bearish) appears while the Support/Resistance isn't broken, this line will be updated with the values of the new volatile candle. This creates a trailing line and a less cluttered chart.
Unlike the Historical mode , a line will not be deleted after a while or when it is mitigated. Instead, the line won't be updated anymore. A new line will start from the next found volatile candle.
Using the same situation as the Historical Mode example, we can note the future significance of old support/resistance levels (illustrated by the extra manually drawn dashed white lines).
The user can switch between these 2 modes, each offering a unique perspective on the market. This provides a more in-depth examination of the market, enhancing the user's trading analysis.
Using a copy of our indicator while using both modes can also be helpful.
🔶 DETAILS
The Support level is the opening price of a bullish volatile candle plus a user-set percentage of the candle's body, while the Resistance level is the opening price of a bearish volatile candle minus a percentage of the candle's body.
The following example illustrates the ATR with the multiplicative factor (Volatility Threshold) where the body of Volatile candles exceeds the ATR limits. Changing the Volatility Threshold and ATR length gives users extra flexibility to adjust to their needs.
🔹 Max Line Length
When using the Historical Mode and the duration of a displayed level reaches the user-set Max Line Length value, the level will return to the last test or be deleted when it has not been tested.
🔶 SETTINGS
Display Mode: Display mode of the indicator.
Support %: Sets the distance of the Support Line from the opening price relative to the candle body.
Resistance %: Sets the distance of the Resistance Line from the opening price relative to the candle body.
🔹 Filter
Length ATR: Amount of bars for the calculation of the Average True Range.
Volatility Threshold: multiplicative factor of ATR.
Max Line Length: Maximum allowed duration/length (in bars) of a Support/Resistance level.

Volume Spread Analysis [Ahmed]Greetings everyone,
I'm thrilled to present a Pine Script I've crafted for Volume Spread Analysis (VSA) Indicator. This tool is aimed at empowering you to make smarter trading choices by scrutinizing the volume spread across a specified interval.
The script delivers a comparative volume analysis, permitting you to fix the type and length of the moving average. It subsequently delineates the moving average (MA), MA augmented by 1 standard deviation (SD), and MA increased by 2 SD. You can fully personalize the color coding for these echelons.
Volume Spread Analysis is an analytical technique that scrutinizes candles and the volume per candle to predict price direction. It considers the volume per candle, the spread range, and the closing price.
To effectively leverage VSA, you need to adhere to a few steps:
1. Ensure you use candlesticks for trading. Other chart types like line, bar, and renko charts may not yield optimal results.
2. Confirm that your broker provides reliable volume data.
3. Be mindful of the chart's timeframe. Volume analysis may not be effective on very short timeframes such as a minute chart. I recommend using daily, weekly, or monthly charts.
Another tip is to examine the spread between the price bars and the volume bars to discern the trend.
The script not only makes it easier to integrate these principles into your trading but also brings precision and convenience to your analysis.
Please remember to adhere to Tradinview terms of service when using the script. Happy trading!

Ahsan Tufail Precise MA Crossover Filter for Reliable SignalsIntroduction:
In the ever-evolving world of Forex trading, strategies that provide a competitive edge are highly sought after. The Moving Average (MA) crossover technique is a popular long-term approach, but its vulnerability to false signals can lead to potential losses. To overcome this challenge, we introduce a game-changing MA crossover filter designed to weed out false signals and unlock the full potential of this strategy. In this article, we delve into the mechanics of this filter, providing a comprehensive analysis of its components and how it enhances the accuracy of buy and sell signals.
The Power of the MA Crossover Filter:
The essence of our MA crossover filter lies in the integration of a specialized indicator that operates on a scale of 0 to 100. This ingenious indicator dynamically measures the distance between the middle Bollinger band and either the upper or lower Bollinger band. By analyzing the values of the last 504 candlesticks, it maps the range from 50 to 100 for the largest and smallest distances between the middle and upper Bollinger bands. Similarly, for values ranging from 0 to 50, it measures the distance between the middle and lower Bollinger bands.
Unveiling the Signal Execution Process:
The brilliance of this filter is revealed in its meticulous execution of buy and sell signals, which significantly reduces false crossovers. Let's explore the process step-by-step:
Buy Signal Precision:
To initiate a buy signal, the price must be positioned above the 200-period Simple Moving Average (SMA).
The filter validates the crossover by checking the indicator's value, ensuring it falls below the threshold of 25.
Sell Signal Accuracy:
For a sell signal, the price must be below the 200-period Simple Moving Average (SMA).
The filter confirms the crossover by verifying the indicator's value, which should exceed the threshold of 75.
This selective approach ensures that only high-confidence crossovers are considered, maximizing the potential for profitable trades.
Fine-Tuning the Filter for Optimal Performance:
While the MA crossover filter exhibits its prowess in GBPUSD and EURUSD currency pairs, it may require adjustments for other pairs. Currency pairs possess unique characteristics, and adapting the filter to specific behavior is crucial for its success.
To fine-tune the filter for alternative currency pairs, traders should conduct rigorous backtesting and analyze historical price data. By experimenting with indicator threshold values, traders can calibrate the filter to accurately match the dynamics of the target currency pair. This iterative process allows for customization, ultimately resulting in a finely-tuned filter that aligns with the unique behavior of the selected market.
Conclusion:
The MA crossover filter represents a paradigm shift in long-term Forex trading strategies. By intelligently filtering false signals, this precision tool unleashes the true potential of the MA crossover technique, elevating its profitability and enhancing overall trading performance. While no strategy guarantees absolute success, incorporating this filter empowers traders with a heightened level of confidence in their buy and sell signals. Embracing the power of this innovative filter can be a transformative step towards mastering Forex profits and staying ahead in the dynamic world of currency trading.
Buying & Selling PressureBuying and selling pressure is a volatility indicator which denotes the balance between buyers and sellers inside candlestick.
You set the length to average it just like ATR. But This offers further break down of participants of the market.
Pretty much at any condition of the market the indicator can filter out interesting details to make trading decisions faster or confirm them.
So keep it simple we have two lines
🟢 Green → buying pressure
🔴 Red → selling pressure
If green is rising → Price most likely will grow
If green is rising and red is falling → Price will grow at higher probability
If red is rising → Price most likely will fall
If red is rising and green is falling → Price will fall at higher probability
When they both grow or fall → wait till one of them goes opposite way.
╳ Crossings can indicate turning points for bigger price swings.
Technically by very act of intersecting means that Buying and Selling Pressure are equal.
Can be used for Demand/Supply analysis and evaluate the support/resistance levels.
Smart labelling - Candlestick FunctionOftentimes a single look at the candlestick configuration happens to be enough to understand what is going on. The chandlestick function is an experiment in smart labelling that produces candles for various time frames, not only for the fixed 1m, 3m , 5m, 15m, etc. ones, and helps in decision-making when eye-balling the chart. This function generates up to 12 last candlesticks , which is generally more than enough.
Mind that since this is an experiment, the function does not cover all possible combinations. In some time frames the produced candles overlap. This is a todo item for those who are unterested. For instance, the current version covers the following TFs:
Chart - TF in the script
1m - 1-20,24,30,32
3m - 1-10
5m - 1-4,6,9,12,18,36
15m - 1-4,6,12
Tested chart TFs: 1m, 3m ,5m,15m. Tested securities: BTCUSD , EURUSD

Falcon SignalsThis script is a TradingView Pine Script for a trading strategy called "Falcon Signals." It combines multiple technical indicators and strategies to generate buy and sell signals. Here’s a breakdown of what the script does:
1. Supertrend Indicator:
The script calculates the Supertrend indicator using the Average True Range (ATR) and a specified multiplier (factor). The Supertrend is used to define the trend direction, with a green line for an uptrend and a red line for a downtrend.
2. EMA (Exponential Moving Average):
Two EMAs are used: a fast EMA (9-period) and a slow EMA (21-period). The script checks for crossovers of the fast EMA above or below the slow EMA as a basis for buying and selling signals.
3. RSI (Relative Strength Index):
The RSI (14-period) is used to measure the momentum of the price. A buy signal is generated when the RSI is less than 70, while a sell signal is generated when it’s greater than 30.
4. Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL):
The script allows users to set custom percentages for take profit and stop loss. The take profit is set at a certain percentage above the entry price for buy signals, and the stop loss is set at a percentage below the entry price, and vice versa for sell signals.
5. Trailing Stop:
A trailing stop can be enabled, which dynamically adjusts the stop loss level as the price moves in the favorable direction. If the price moves against the position by a certain trailing percentage, the position will be closed.
6. Engulfing Patterns:
The script checks for bullish and bearish engulfing candlestick patterns, indicating potential reversals. A bullish engulfing pattern is marked with a teal label ("🔄 Reversal Up"), and a bearish engulfing pattern is marked with a fuchsia label ("🔄 Reversal Down").
7. Plotting:
The script plots various indicators and signals:
Entry line: Shows where the buy or sell signal is triggered.
Take profit and stop loss levels are plotted as lines.
EMA and Supertrend lines are plotted on the chart.
Trailing stop line, if enabled, is also plotted.
8. Buy and Sell Labels:
The script places labels on the chart when buy or sell signals are triggered, indicating the price at which the order should be placed.
9. Exit Line:
The script plots an exit line when the trailing stop is hit, signaling when a position should be closed.
10. Alerts:
Alerts are set for both buy and sell signals, notifying the trader when to act based on the strategy's conditions.
This strategy combines trend-following (Supertrend), momentum (RSI), and price action patterns (EMA crossovers and engulfing candlestick patterns) to generate trade signals. It also offers the flexibility of take profit, stop loss, and trailing stop features.
Engulfing Candle PatternIndicator Overview
This indicator identifies Bullish and Bearish Engulfing candlestick patterns on a price chart. These patterns are reversal signals:
Bullish Engulfing: Occurs during a downtrend, where a bullish candle fully engulfs the body of the previous bearish candle.
Bearish Engulfing: Occurs during an uptrend, where a bearish candle fully engulfs the body of the previous bullish candle.
Key Features
1. Pattern Detection:
Detects Bullish Engulfing and Bearish Engulfing patterns based on candle body comparisons.
Uses the current and previous candle's open/close prices to determine engulfing conditions.
2. Visualization:
Plots labels on the chart:
" Bullish Engulfing " below the candle for bullish patterns.
" Bearish Engulfing " above the candle for bearish patterns.
3. Alerts:
Triggers alerts when either pattern is detected, allowing traders to take action.
How It Works
Bullish Engulfing Condition:
Current candle is bullish (close > open).
Previous candle is bearish (close < open).
Current candle's body fully engulfs the previous candle's body.
Bearish Engulfing Condition:
- Current candle is bearish (close < open).
- Previous candle is bullish (close > open).
- Current candle's body fully engulfs the previous candle's body.
Usage
- Apply the script to any chart in TradingView.
- Look for " Bullish Engulfing " or " Bearish Engulfing " labels on the chart.
- Set up alerts to get notified when these patterns form.
This indicator is a simple yet effective tool for identifying potential trend reversals using engulfing candlestick patterns.
Volume candle by MoondIndicator Description: Equal Volume Candle Chart
This indicator creates a real-time candlestick chart where each candle forms upon the completion of a specific volume threshold, rather than within fixed time intervals. The candles update dynamically based on the total volume traded, providing a unique perspective that incorporates market activity directly into price movements.
Key Features:
Dynamic Candles Based on Volume: Candles form when a defined lot size of volume is reached, making each candle represent consistent trading activity rather than a fixed time period.
Customizable Volume Lot Size: Users can easily adjust the volume threshold to suit different trading styles or asset classes.
Real-Time Market Reflection: The chart responds to changes in market volume, offering a clearer view of market intensity and momentum.
Concept Behind the Indicator: Traditional candlestick charts operate on time intervals, which can ignore the influence of volume in price changes. By basing the candle formation on equal volumes, this indicator integrates both price and traded volume into the visual representation, helping traders capture key shifts in market sentiment and activity that might be missed on time-based charts
Engulfing with TrendThe script above is a trading strategy with rules based on the Engulfing candlestick pattern within the context of the trend. Some key elements of this script include:
1. ATR (Average True Range) settings to measure market volatility.
2. Supertrend settings to identify the market trend.
3. Conditions for determining uptrend and downtrend.
4. Determination of Bullish (Engulfing pattern during uptrend) and Bearish (Engulfing pattern during downtrend).
5. Calculation of Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) levels based on the Engulfing pattern.
6. Entry conditions based on the Engulfing pattern and the corresponding trend.
7. Exit conditions based on price crossovers with SL and TP levels.
8. Plotting of the Engulfing patterns on the chart.
This strategy is used to identify trading opportunities based on Engulfing candlestick patterns that align with the direction of the market trend. Additionally, stop loss and take profit levels are calculated based on the Engulfing pattern, and trading signals are displayed on the chart.
It's important to note that this script can be customized according to your trading preferences and strategy.
Oliver Velez IndicatorOliver Velez is a well-known trader and educator who has developed multiple trading strategies. One of them is the 20-200sma strategy, which is a basic moving average crossover strategy. The strategy involves using two simple moving averages (SMAs) - a short-term SMA with a period of 20 and a long-term SMA with a period of 200 - on a 2-minute timeframe chart.
When the short-term SMA crosses above the long-term SMA, it signals a potential bullish trend and traders may look for opportunities to enter a long position. Conversely, when the short-term SMA crosses below the long-term SMA, it signals a potential bearish trend and traders may look for opportunities to enter a short position.
Traders using this strategy may also look for additional confirmations, such as price action signals or other technical indicators, before entering or exiting a trade. It is important to note that no trading strategy can guarantee profits, and traders should always use risk management techniques to limit potential losses.
This script is an implementation of the 2 SMA's (can also choose other types of MA's), with Elephant Bar Indicator (EBI) and the Tail Bars Indicator in TradingView.
The Elephant Bar Indicator is a technical indicator used in trading to identify potential trend reversals in the market. It is named after the large size of the bullish or bearish candlestick that it represents. The Tail Bars Indicator is a pattern recognition technique that identifies candlestick patterns with long tails or wicks.
The script starts by defining the input parameters for both indicators. For the Elephant Bar Indicator, the user inputs the lookback period and the size multiplier. For the Tail Bars Indicator, the user inputs the tail ratio and opposite wick ratio.
Next, the script calculates the moving averages of the closing price over the defined short and long periods using the Moving Average function. The script then calculates the average candle size and volume over the lookback period.
The script then identifies the Elephant Bars and Tail Bars using the input parameters and additional conditions. For Elephant Bars, the script identifies bullish and bearish bars that meet certain criteria, such as a size greater than the average candle size and volume greater than the average volume.
For Tail Bars, the script identifies bullish and bearish bars that have long tails or wicks and meet certain criteria such as opposite wick size less than or equal to the tail size multiplied by the input opposite wick ratio.
Finally, the script plots the Elephant Bar and Tail Bar signals on the chart using different colors and shapes. The script also plots the moving averages and Keltner Channels to help traders identify potential trend reversals.
It is still under development, so please, if someone has ideas to add, more than welcome

Tick ChartHello All,
Tick Chart is created using ticks and each candlestick in Tick Chart shows the price variation of X consecutive ticks ( X : Number of Ticks Per Candle ). for example if you set Number of Ticks Per Candle = 100 then each candlestick is created using 100 ticks. so, Tick Charts are NOT time-based charts (like Renko or Point & Figure Charts). Tick is the price change in minimum time interval defined in the platform. There are several advantages of Tick Charts. You can find many articles about Tick Charts on the net.
Tick Chart only works on realtime bars.
You can set " Number of Ticks Per Candle " and " Number of Candles" using options. You can change color of body, wicks abd volume bars as well.
The script shows current, minimum, maximum and average volumes. it also shows OHLC values on the last candle.

[ROC3] Rate of Change Candle ColorROC is a statistical indicator which tracks how much a security's price has changed over a certain period, showing whether momentum is picking up or slowing down. It’s a handy tool because it helps traders spot trend changes and understand how strong a trend is.
My ROC3 indicator will color the candlesticks based on the Rate of Change (ROC) and its Exponential Moving Average (EMA). This indicator helps traders visually identify bullish and bearish trends by applying color to the candles, making it easier to spot momentum shifts and trend changes.
How It Works:
Rate of Change (ROC): Calculates the percentage change in the price over a specified number of bars. This indicator measures the speed at which price changes.
EMA of ROC: Applies an Exponential Moving Average to the ROC values to provide a smoothed benchmark. The EMA helps to reduce noise and make trend identification more reliable.
Coloring Logic:
Bullish Candles (Green): When the current ROC is higher than the EMA of the ROC.
Bearish Candles (Red): When the current ROC is lower than the EMA of the ROC.
Settings:
ROC Length (Default: 60): The number of bars used to calculate the Rate of Change. Adjust this parameter to change the sensitivity of the ROC calculation.
ROC EMA Length (Default: 7): The number of bars used to calculate the Exponential Moving Average of the ROC. This length determines how smooth the EMA is. A shorter length reacts faster to price changes, while a longer length provides a smoother, slower response.
How to Use:
Apply the Indicator: Add the Rate of Change Candle Color indicator to your TradingView chart.
Interpret the Colors:
Green Candles: Indicate bullish momentum. The current ROC is greater than its EMA, suggesting upward pressure.
Red Candles: Indicate bearish momentum. The current ROC is less than its EMA, suggesting downward pressure.
Adjust Settings: Customize the ROC Length and ROC EMA Length based on your trading strategy. Shorter ROC lengths may capture more short-term trends, while longer lengths provide a broader view.
Combine with Other Indicators: Use the in conjunction with other technical indicators or chart patterns to enhance your trading analysis.
Example Use Case:
Trend Confirmation: Use the color changes to confirm bullish or bearish trends. Green candles can confirm uptrends, while red candles may signal downtrends or potential reversals.
Momentum Analysis: Monitor how frequently the ROC crosses above or below its EMA to gauge momentum strength and make informed trading decisions.
Note:
This indicator is designed to assist with trend analysis and should be used as part of a broader trading strategy. Always conduct your own research and analysis before making trading decisions.

Zig Zag+ (Macro + Internal Structure Tool)ZigZag+ (Macro + Internal Structure Tool)
ZigZag+ is a simple tool that helps traders to clearly identify and differentiate between macro and internal market structure, to help you keep your bearings of where you are currently in the overall picture.
It is especially difficult to keep your bearings within the larger structural trend when trading the lower timeframes, where for example, a bearish structural trend on a lower timeframe may simply be a retracement of an overall bullish structural trend on a higher timeframe. This indicator primarily aims to help traders maintain awareness of where they are in relationship to the higher timeframe / 'macro' structural trend, and their most significant swing point highs and lows.
The features of this indicator include:
- 2x Zig Zag lines drawn automatically onto your chart. One which has a longer length than the other, which can be used to help identify and differentiate the larger price swings from the smaller price swings found within it. Enabled by default.
- Customisable Zig Zag line color & width settings to help clearly differentiate the higher timeframe 'macro structure' apart from the lower timeframe 'internal structure' within it, enabling it to be tailored to suit your chart colour theme and personal preference.
- Customisable individual length settings for the 2x Zig Zag lines, to allow the fine tuning of each line to any timeframe and asset. By default one lines length is set to a higher value than the other, to illustrate a macro structure (higher length value) as well as the 'internal structure' (lower value length), seen within the larger macro structure.
- Up to a maximum of 500 lines can be drawn meaning you can zoom out considerably, and view historical price action with both Zig Zag lines continuing to print.
- Custom alerts for identifying candlesticks that can offer optimal entries where they are found within valid price markups or markdowns that are already underway. Further details can be found within the tooltips for these signals.
Note: The above list of features are accurate at the time of publishing, but may be updated or added to in future.
Structure
Understanding structure is arguably the foundation of all trading strategies, and therefore very important to understand where you are exactly in the bigger picture, since it can help identify levels at which there is a higher probability of price moving either upward or downward at a given point. Structural trend refers to the typical way that price tends to move in any given trending market, identified by the continuation of higher highs and higher lows in a typical bullish trending market, and lower highs and lower lows in a bearish trending market.
During other times price may not be trending in this way, for example when it is undergoing accumulation or distribution phases, where the consistent higher high & lower low / lower high and lower low patterns will not be evident.
What is Macro Structure?
Macro trend structure refers to the structural trend seen on higher timeframe charts.
What is Internal Structure?
Internal trend structure refers to the structural trend seen on lower timeframe charts, which is found within the higher timeframe structure.
Disclaimer: This indicator is adapted from an original script authored by Tr0sT . With special thanks.
Secondary Candle OverlayThis simple script is meant to allow the user to select another symbol to add onto their chart and plot the candlesticks for that symbol at the selected resolution requested.
Please see the tooltip provided by the 'Secondary Symbol' input for more details with regards to properly using this script on symbols that have vastly different valuations, it will help with getting the symbol requested to scale properly with the primary symbol on the chart.
The user may also input which colors are used for bullish/bearish candles as well as the symbol itself and its resolution.
IMPORTANT NOTE: THIS SCRIPT DOES NOT ACCOUNT FOR SYMBOLS THAT ARE NOT CONTINUOUS (The defval for the symbol is TVC:DXY which closes on weekends whereas a cryptocurrency like Bitcoin does not stop trading ever; candles on these kinds of markets will be repeated when overlaid onto markets that do not have this property.)
Centered Candles [racer8]Brief 💜
This indicator allows users to more easily compare candlesticks by centering them along a zero line.
Also, I've added some moving average lines for the highs, lows, and closes for these centered candles.

Popgun Bar PatternI created this script to research the trading effectiveness of the Popgun Bar Pattern.
The Popgun Bar Pattern is found when 3 candlesticks in order form the following pattern:
0. Any bar that is then followed by:
1. An inside bar. This is a bar that is completely engulfed by the bar before it. It will have a lower high and a higher low than the previous bar.
2. An outside bar immediately after. This is a bar that completely engulfs the prior inside bar. It will have a higher high and a lower low than the previous bar.
Simply put, the Popgun Bar Pattern is an inside bar followed by an outside bar.
I would highly recommend incorporating this signal as a "trigger" for existing technical analysis. Used in isolation it may not have a high probability of success.
To make it more effective as a trigger to a trading signal I incorporated into my code an Entry, Stop, and a Target dot.
The Entry dot is offset from the low of a bearish Popgun Bar Pattern or the high of a bullish Popgun Bar Pattern by a factor of ATR. The default ATR percentage is 33% but can be adjusted.
The Stop dot is based on the recent highest high (bearish) or lowest low (bullish) of a set range (default is 9 bars) plus/minus the ATR percentage buffer.
The Target dot is automatically calculated from the entry based on a configurable reward factor (default is 3) from the entry to stop distance. This projects a potential 3:1 reward/risk trade by default.
There is an additional alert condition which can be configured at the end of the script.
