Supply/Demand Zones + Engulfment-based ExecutionSupply/Demand Zones + Engulfment-Based Execution
Strategy Overview
This strategy combines institutional trading concepts—supply/demand zones and engulfing candle patterns—to generate high-probability long and short trade setups. The system uses aggregated price action to identify potential reversal zones and confirms entries with engulfing candle patterns, ensuring trades are only taken when market structure shows commitment in the direction of the trade.
Core Concepts
• Supply & Demand Zones: These are automatically detected by analyzing aggregated bullish and bearish candle structures over user-defined intervals. Supply zones are formed after bearish continuation patterns; demand zones appear after bullish continuation patterns.
• Engulfing Entries: Once price enters a zone, the strategy waits for a bullish engulfing pattern (in a demand zone) or a bearish engulfing pattern (in a supply zone) before executing a trade. This adds confirmation and reduces false signals.
• Risk Management: Stop-loss is placed at the low (for long trades) or high (for short trades) of the engulfed candle. Take-profit can be calculated using a fixed R-multiple (risk-to-reward ratio) or a user-defined target price.
Key Features
Fully customizable aggregation factor for zone detection
Visual zone boxes, entry/SL/TP boxes, and engulfing pattern labels
Optional removal of mitigated zones for cleaner charting
Configurable trade mode (Long only, Short only, or Both)
Support for trading sessions and date filtering
Alerts for price entering supply or demand zones
How to Use
Select Aggregation Factor: Choose how many candles to group together for identifying key zones (e.g., 4x timeframe).
Enable Zones: Turn on supply and/or demand zones as needed.
Set Execution Parameters:
– Choose R-multiple (e.g., 2:1 risk-reward)
– Or use a fixed take-profit price
Define Trade Time Window:
– Set the date and time ranges to restrict execution
– Use Start Hour and End Hour to limit trades to specific sessions (e.g., London/New York)
Run on Desired Timeframe: Typically used on 15m–4H charts, depending on your strategy and the asset’s volatility.
Ideal For
• Traders using Smart Money Concepts (SMC)
• Those who value high-confluence entries
• Intraday to swing traders looking for structure-based automation
⚠️ Important Notes
• The strategy requires engulfing confirmation within the zone to enter a position.
• This script does not repaint and executes trades on a bar close basis.
• Backtest results may vary based on session filters and aggregation factor.

Liquidity Zones [ActiveQuants]The Liquidity Zones indicator detects price areas where high trading volume coincides with below-average volatility , critical zones where large players often accumulate or distribute positions. Ideal for spotting potential reversal points and strategic liquidity pools.
Core Detection Formula
Liquidity Zone = (Volume > SMA(Volume, Length) × Multiplier) AND (Short-Term Volatility < 0.5 × Average Volatility)
Volume Surge Detection
Compares current volume to its SMA (user-defined length).
Multiplies threshold with " Volume Threshold Multiplier " parameter.
Volatility Contraction Filter
Calculates 5-bar volatility (standard deviation of closes).
Compares to average volatility over " Price Std. Dev. Length " period.
Requires short-term volatility < 50% of average.
█ KEY FEATURES
Merging Consecutive Zones
If the " Merge Consecutive Zones " option is enabled, the indicator will:
Calculate the number of consecutive bars that meet the liquidity zone criteria.
Sum the volume of these consecutive bars.
Display only the most recent label for the merged zone (previous labels in the sequence are removed).
Displays volume in either
Raw units (" Units ").
Dollar-equivalent (" Currency Value ") using closing price.
Alerts
An alert condition is built into the script. Traders can selectively enable alerts via TradingView’s alert system. Whenever a liquidity zone is detected, an alert is triggered with the message: " High-volume and low-volatility zone detected! ".
█ USER INPUTS
- Liquidity Zones Color
Sets the background color for liquidity zones.
Default: Orange (with 70 transparency).
- Volume SMA Length
Determines the number of bars over which the volume simple moving average is calculated.
Default: 20 bars.
- Volume Threshold Multiplier
Multiplies the volume SMA to establish a threshold. A bar’s volume must exceed this product to be considered high volume.
Default: 2.0.
- Price Std. Dev. Length
The period used to calculate the standard deviation of the closing prices. This is the basis for measuring average volatility.
Default: 14 bars.
- Zone Volume
A toggle to display a label with the volume value on liquidity zones.
Allows you to choose how the volume is displayed: Units (shows raw volume) or Currency Value (multiplies volume by the current closing price).
Allows you to choose the font size of the volume label.
- Merge Consecutive Zones
When enabled, volumes from consecutive liquidity zones are summed into a single total, and only the most recent label is displayed (previous labels in the sequence are removed).
Default: Enabled.
- Show Last
Specifies the number of bars back that the indicator will evaluate and plot liquidity zones.
Default: 500 bars.
- Timeframe
Analysis period.
Default: Chart.
█ CONCLUSION
The Liquidity Zones indicator is a powerful tool for traders seeking to identify key areas on the chart where liquidity is concentrated, characterized by high volume and low volatility . With customizable settings for volume analysis and volatility measurement , this indicator can be integrated into a wide range of trading strategies. It not only highlights these zones visually but also provides volume data labels and alerts for timely decision-making.
█ IMPORTANT NOTES
⚠ Volume and Volatility Settings: Adjust the Volume SMA Length , Volume Threshold Multiplier , and Price Std. Dev. Length to suit the typical trading volume and volatility of the asset you are analyzing.
⚠ Confirmed Bars Only: Signals are generated only on confirmed bars. This minimizes false signals due to intra-bar noise and also prevents indicator repainting .
⚠ Risk Management: Liquidity zones may signal areas of potential accumulation or distribution, but they should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools (e.g., support/resistance levels, trendlines, or momentum indicators). Trading involves risk, and it is recommended to combine this indicator with proper risk management techniques.
█ RISK DISCLAIMER
Trading involves substantial risk of loss. Liquidity zones indicate potential interest areas but don't guarantee price reactions. Always confirm with additional analysis and proper risk management. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
📈 Happy trading! 🚀
4Hour Zone SeparatorThis custom TradingView indicator draws vertical lines on your chart to visually separate the 4-hour trading zones within a single trading day. The indicator helps traders identify key time intervals throughout the day for better market analysis and decision-making.
Features:
• Time-Based Zones: The indicator divides the day into six distinct 4-hour periods, starting from midnight (00:00) and continuing every 4 hours. Each zone is marked by a vertical line on the chart.
• User Customization: You can toggle the visibility of the lines for each 4-hour period (00:00, 04:00, 08:00, 12:00, 16:00, 20:00) based on your preference. This allows you to focus on specific zones that matter most for your analysis.
• Line Styling Options: Choose from three different line styles — Solid, Dashed, or Dotted — and adjust the thickness to your desired preference.
• Dynamic Time Adjustment: The indicator automatically adjusts for the time zone, ensuring that the 00:00 timestamp reflects the correct start of the day based on your chart’s time zone.
How It Works:
1. The indicator starts by calculating the beginning of the day at 00:00, then it sequentially places vertical lines every 4 hours.
2. Each line is color-coded for easy identification, and the lines stretch from the highest to the lowest point on the chart for that range.
3. The lines are drawn only when the chart enters a new 4-hour zone.
This tool is especially useful for day traders who want to track price action during specific times of the day and make informed decisions based on market behavior within each 4-hour period.
MTF OB Supply Demand ZonesHello everyone,
This exceptional indicator provides you with visual representations of bullish and bearish order blocks or supply and demand zones across multiple timeframes. In simple terms, bullish order blocks are represented by a small red candle followed by a large red candle, while bearish order blocks are depicted as a small green candle followed by a large red candle. Supply and demand zones are drawn by using order blocks.
Features:
Display order blocks from up to three different timeframes.
Customize the maximum number of boxes shown and the colors of the zones.
Choose from three different modes: OB (Order Block), Extended OB, and Supply/Demand.
Mode Descriptions:
OB: Includes the body of the candle.
Extended OB: Encompasses the body and wick of the candle.
Supply/Demand: Covers the body, wick, and half the body of the large candle.
Usage:
Ensure that charts 2 and 3 are set to a higher timeframe. For modes 2 and 3, it’s recommended to reduce the maximum number of boxes shown. The zones or boxes are transparent, allowing for overlap. This feature aids in identifying reversal zones or confirmed zones. The more intense the color, the stronger the confirmation. If a green zone overlaps a red zone (or vice versa), it signifies a reversal zone.
Thank you for checking out this indicator!

Additional Information:
Order blocks refer to specific price areas where large market participants, such as institutional traders, have previously placed significant buy or sell orders. These clusters of orders can impact price movement, liquidity, and market sentiment.
Order blocks are a strategic approach to identifying key levels of support and resistance based on the behavior of institutional traders. These key levels are then utilized as entry or exit points for trades.
An order block is an area where there has been a large concentration of limit orders awaiting execution. These blocks are identified on a chart by observing previous price action and pinpointing areas where the price experienced significant movement or abrupt changes in direction.
Order blocks are used in the following popular trading philosophies:

Donchian MA Bands [LuxAlgo]The Donchian MA Bands script is a complete trend indicator derived from the popular Donchian channel indicator as well as various customizable moving averages to estimate trend direction and build support/resistance levels & zones.
🔶 USAGE
The indicator outputs various elements, the main ones being a lower dynamic zone (blue by default), an upper dynamic zone (in orange by default), and one support and resistance level/zones (red/green by default).
A prominent lower zone is indicative of an uptrend, while a prominent upper zone is indicative of a downtrend. These zones can be used as support/resistance as well.
Support/resistance zones and levels can be used using a breakout methodology or to determine price bounced if a level was tested multiple times.
The indicator contains various modes affecting the output of the indicator, described below.
🔹 Clouds
Clouds return one upper/lower dynamic zone and look/act similarly to a trailing stop. Price over the lower zone is indicative of an uptrend, and price under the upper zone is indicative of a downtrend.
🔹 Upper Band
The upper band mode returns a dynamic zone closer to prices during an uptrend, and farther away during a downtrend.
This band can act as a support during uptrends.
🔹 Lower Band
The lower band mode returns a dynamic zone closer to prices during an uptrend, and farther away during a downtrend.
This band can act as a resistance during downtrends.
🔹 Bands
Bands return both upper and lower zones, the zones are more apparent depending on the price trend direction, with uptrends being indicated by a more visible lower zone, and downtrends being indicated by a more visible upper zone.
Breakout dots are highlighted when price breakout the indicator displayed extremities, and can be indicative of a confirmed trend reversal.
These breakouts can be more effective for trend following during trending markets. Ranging markets might return breakouts highlighting the top/bottom.
🔶 DETAILS
The core of this script is the highest / lowest mean average (MA) value for a given number of bars back ( Donchian lines).
This is repeated a few times with the obtained values.
When Bands are chosen ( Style ) this will be repeated 1 more time.
The type of mean average can be customized ( Type MA ), as well as the number of bars back ( Length ).
Depending on the choice of bands ( Style ) the script will focus on certain area's of interest.
When the option Clouds , Upper band or Lower band is chosen, an extra feature, support/resistance (S/R), will be shown.
These color-filled areas are visible when there is a difference between the 2nd and 3rd highest/lowest values.
The lines/areas can be used for stop loss, entry, exit,...
You can set the type of MA and Length separately ( Settings -> S/R ).
If you don't need this feature, simply set Type ( Settings -> S/R ) -> NONE
The shape sometimes resembles triangles, indicating a potential direction
Default the average of the highest and lowest values is plotted (Style -> Mid Donchian)
This can act as potential support/resistance or visualization of the trend, the mean average is not plotted but can be (Style -> MA)
🔹 Note
When the option Bands is chosen, an indication is plotted when the closing price breaks above the highest band or breaks below the lower band. This isn't necessarily a buy/sell signal, it is merely a signal that these lines are broken.
Users should decide on their own how they use the bands/lines/areas as entry, exit, trailing stop, stop loss, profit taking,...
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Bands
Style: Clouds (default), Upper band, Lower band, Bands
Type MA: choose between SMA, EMA, RMA, HullMA, WMA, VWMA (default), DEMA, TEMA, NONE (off)
Length: Length of moving average and Donchian calculations (default 20)
Colour Bands
🔹 S/R (Support/Resistance, visible with Clouds, Upper band or Lower band)
Type MA: choose between SMA, EMA, RMA, HullMA, WMA, VWMA (default), DEMA, TEMA, NONE (off)
Length: Length of moving average and Donchian calculations (default 20)

Dual Fibonacci Zone & Ranged Vol DCA Strategy - R3c0nTraderWhat does this do?
This is for educational purposes and allows one to backtest two Fibonacci Zones simultaneously. This also includes an option for Ranged Volume as a parameter.
Pre-requisites:
First off, this is a Long only strategy as I wrote it with DCA in mind. It cannot be used for shorting. Shorting defeats the purpose of a DCA bot which has a goal that is Long a position not Short a position. If you want to short, there are plenty of free scripts out there that do this.
You must have some base knowledge or experience with Fibonacci trading, understanding what is ADX, +DI (and -DI), etc.
You can use this script without a 3Commas account and see how 3Commas DCA Bot would perform. However, I highly recommend inexperienced uses get a free account and going through the tutorials, FAQ's and knowledgebase. This would give you a base understanding of the settings you will see in this strategy and why you will need to know them. Only then should you try testing this strategy with a paper bot.
Background
After I had created and released "Fibonacci Zone DCA Strategy", I began expanding and testing other ideas.
The first idea was to add Ranged Volume to the Fibonacci Zone DCA strategy which I wanted for providing further confirmation before entering a trade. The second idea was to add a second Fibonacci Zone that was just as configurable as the first Fibonacci Zone. I managed to add both and they can be easily enabled or disabled via the strategy settings menu.
Things Got Real Interesting
Things got real interesting when I started testing strategies with two Fibonacci zones. Here's a quick list of what I found I was able to do:
Mix and match exit strategies. I could set the Fib-1 zone strategy to exit with a take profit % and separately set the Fib-2 zone strategy to exit when the price crosses the top-high fib border
Trade the trend. A common phrase amongst traders is "the Trend is your friend" and with the help of an additional Fib Zone, I was able to trade the trend more often by using two different Fib Zone strategies which if configured properly can shorten time to re-deploy capital, increase number of closed trades, and in some cases increase net profit.
Trade both bull market uptrends and bear market downtrends in the same strategy. I found I could configure one Fib Zone strategy to be really good in uptrends and another Fib Zone strategy to be really good in downtrends. In some cases, with both Fib Zone strategies enabled together in a single strategy I got better results than if the strategies were backtested separately.
There are many other trade strategies I am finding with this. One could be to trade a convergence or divergence of the two different Fib Zones. This could possibly be achieved by setting one strategy to have different Fibonacci length.

Volume-based Support & Resistance ZonesThe new and improved Support & Resistance Zones indicator is here. This indicator is based on high volume at fractal lows or fractal highs with the zones based on the size of the wick for that timeframe’s candle.
This helps traders visualize which price levels are of the most significance for either reversals or continuation of the trend when zones are broken and then re-tested.
Original script is thanks to synapticex and additional modifications is thanks to Lij_MC. Credit to both of them for most of the logic behind this script.
Since then I have made many changes to this script as noted below:
Changed default S/R lines from plots to lines, and gave option to user to change between solid line, dashed line, or dotted line for both S/R lines.
Added additional time frame and gave more TF options for TF1 other than current TF. Now you will have 4 time frames to plot S/R zones from.
Gave user option to easily change line thickness for all S/R lines.
Made it easier to change colors of S/R lines and zones by consolidating the options under settings (rather than under style).
Added extensions to active SR Zones to extend all the way right.
Added option to extend or not extend the previous S/R zones up to next S/R zone.
Added optional time frame labels to active S/R zones, with left and right options as well as option to adjust how far to the right label is set.
Fixed issue where the higher time frame S/R zone was not properly starting from the high/low of fractal. Now any higher time frame S/R will begin exactly at the High/Low points. Note that this may not work perfectly on stocks and if a fractal high/low is too many bars in the past, it will revert to a default max bars back to avoid script errors.
Added to script a function that will prevent S/R zones from lower time frames displaying while on a higher time frame. This helps clean up the chart quite a bit.
Created arrays for each time frame's boxes and lines so that the number of S/R zones can be controlled for each time frame and limit memory consumption.
New alert options added and customized alert messages.
- The way this indicator works is it looks for fractal highs or fractal lows with volume that pierces above the volume's Moving Average. This moving average value can be modified in the settings for each time frame.
- The fractal highs will be confirmed with 3 successive higher highs followed by 2 successive lower highs and vice versa for the fractal lows.
- The zone is created from the fractal high/low and the close of the candle for whatever time frame you selected. The bigger the zone, the more significant that zone is.
- You can disable any zone, change the zones to show lines only, and modify all the colors, transparencies, and thickness of lines for all the zones.
- To create alerts, you first want to enable the types of alerts you want for each time frame in the indicator's settings. Then after you apply changes, right click on one of the zones on the chart, and click "Add Alert on Vol S/R Zones". You do not need to add a title as the correct alert messages are already built-in.
- More changes will be coming in the future!
I hope you find this indicator useful, if so please give it a thumbs up!
If you have any suggestions or features you would like to see, just let me know in the comment section. Thanks and enjoy!

Rocky's Dynamic DikFat Supply & Demand ZonesDynamic Supply & Demand Zones
Overview
The Dynamic Supply & Demand Zones indicator identifies key supply and demand levels on your chart by detecting pivot highs and lows. It draws customizable boxes around these zones, helping traders visualize areas where price may react. With flexible display options and dynamic box behavior, this tool is designed to assist in identifying potential support and resistance levels for various trading strategies.
Key Features
Pivot-Based Zones: Automatically detects supply (resistance) and demand (support) zones using pivot highs and lows on the chart’s timeframe.
Dynamic Box Sizing: Boxes shrink when price enters them, reflecting reduced zone strength, and stop adjusting once price fully crosses through.
Customizable Display: Choose to show current-day boxes, historical boxes, or all boxes, with an option to update past box colors dynamically.
Session-Based Extension: Boxes can extend to the current bar or stop at 4:00 PM of the creation day’s 9:30 AM–4:00 PM trading session (ideal for stock markets).
Color Coding: Borders change color based on price position:
Green for demand zones (price above the box).
Red for supply zones (price below the box).
White for neutral zones (price inside the box).
User-Friendly Inputs: Adjust pivot lookback periods, box visibility, extension behavior, and colors via intuitive input settings.
How It Works
Zone Detection: The indicator uses pivot highs and lows to define supply and demand zones, plotting boxes between these levels.
Box Behavior:
Boxes are created when pivot highs and lows are confirmed, with no overlap with the previous box.
When price enters a box, it shrinks to reflect interaction, stopping once price exits completely.
Boxes can extend to the current bar or end at 4:00 PM of the creation day (or next trading day if created after 4:00 PM or on weekends).
Display Options:
Current Only: Shows boxes created on the current day.
Historical Only: Shows boxes from previous days, with optional color updates.
All Boxes: Shows all boxes, with an option to hide historical box color updates.
Performance: Limits the number of boxes to 200 to ensure smooth performance, removing older boxes as needed.
Inputs
Pivot Look Right/Left: Set the number of bars (default: 2) to confirm pivot highs and lows.
What Boxes to Show: Select Current Only, Historical Only, or All Boxes (default: Current Only).
Boxes On/Off: Toggle box visibility (default: on).
Extend Boxes to Current Bar: Choose whether boxes extend to the current bar or stop at 4:00 PM (default: off, stops at 4:00 PM).
Update Past Box Colors: Enable/disable color updates for historical boxes (default: on).
Demand/Supply/Neutral Box Color: Customize border colors (default: green, red, white).
How to Use
Add the indicator to your chart.
Adjust inputs to match your trading style (e.g., pivot lookback, box extension, colors).
Use the boxes to identify potential support (demand) and resistance (supply) zones:
Green-bordered boxes (price above) may act as support.
Red-bordered boxes (price below) may act as resistance.
White-bordered boxes (price inside) indicate active price interaction.
Combine with other analysis tools (e.g., trendlines, indicators) to confirm trade setups.
Monitor box shrinking to gauge zone strength and watch for breakouts when price fully crosses a box.
Understanding Supply and Demand in Stock Trading
In stock trading, supply and demand are fundamental forces driving price movements. Demand refers to the willingness of buyers to purchase a stock at a given price, often creating support levels where buying interest prevents further price declines. Supply represents the willingness of sellers to offload a stock, forming resistance levels where selling pressure halts price increases. These zones are critical because they highlight areas where significant buying or selling activity has occurred, influencing future price behavior.
The importance of supply and demand lies in their ability to reveal where institutional traders, with large orders, have entered or exited the market. Demand zones, often seen at pivot lows, indicate strong buying interest and potential areas for price reversals or bounces. Supply zones, typically at pivot highs, signal heavy selling and possible reversal points for downward moves. By identifying these zones, traders can anticipate where price is likely to stall, reverse, or break out, enabling better entry and exit decisions. This indicator visualizes these zones as dynamic boxes, making it easier to spot high-probability trading opportunities while emphasizing the core market dynamics of supply and demand.

AO/AC Trading Zones Strategy [Skyrexio] Overview
AO/AC Trading Zones Strategy leverages the combination of Awesome Oscillator (AO), Acceleration/Deceleration Indicator (AC), Williams Fractals, Williams Alligator and Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to obtain the high probability long setups. Moreover, strategy uses multi trades system, adding funds to long position if it considered that current trend has likely became stronger. Combination of AO and AC is used for creating so-called trading zones to create the signals, while Alligator and Fractal are used in conjunction as an approximation of short-term trend to filter them. At the same time EMA (default EMA's period = 100) is used as high probability long-term trend filter to open long trades only if it considers current price action as an uptrend. More information in "Methodology" and "Justification of Methodology" paragraphs. The strategy opens only long trades.
Unique Features
No fixed stop-loss and take profit: Instead of fixed stop-loss level strategy utilizes technical condition obtained by Fractals and Alligator to identify when current uptrend is likely to be over. In some special cases strategy uses AO and AC combination to trail profit (more information in "Methodology" and "Justification of Methodology" paragraphs)
Configurable Trading Periods: Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Multilayer trades opening system: strategy uses only 10% of capital in every trade and open up to 5 trades at the same time if script consider current trend as strong one.
Short and long term trend trade filters: strategy uses EMA as high probability long-term trend filter and Alligator and Fractal combination as a short-term one.
Methodology
The strategy opens long trade when the following price met the conditions:
1. Price closed above EMA (by default, period = 100). Crossover is not obligatory.
2. Combination of Alligator and Williams Fractals shall consider current trend as an upward (all details in "Justification of Methodology" paragraph)
3. Both AC and AO shall print two consecutive increasing values. At the price candle close which corresponds to this condition algorithm opens the first long trade with 10% of capital.
4. If combination of Alligator and Williams Fractals shall consider current trend has been changed from up to downtrend, all long trades will be closed, no matter how many trades has been opened.
5. If AO and AC both continue printing the rising values strategy opens the long trade on each candle close with 10% of capital while number of opened trades reaches 5.
6. If AO and AC both has printed 5 rising values in a row algorithm close all trades if candle's low below the low of the 5-th candle with rising AO and AC values in a row.
Script also has additional visuals. If second long trade has been opened simultaneously the Alligator's teeth line is plotted with the green color. Also for every trade in a row from 2 to 5 the label "Buy More" is also plotted just below the teeth line. With every next simultaneously opened trade the green color of the space between teeth and price became less transparent.
Strategy settings
In the inputs window user can setup strategy setting:
EMA Length (by default = 100, period of EMA, used for long-term trend filtering EMA calculation).
User can choose the optimal parameters during backtesting on certain price chart.
Justification of Methodology
Let's explore the key concepts of this strategy and understand how they work together. We'll begin with the simplest: the EMA.
The Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is a type of moving average that assigns greater weight to recent price data, making it more responsive to current market changes compared to the Simple Moving Average (SMA). This tool is widely used in technical analysis to identify trends and generate buy or sell signals. The EMA is calculated as follows:
1.Calculate the Smoothing Multiplier:
Multiplier = 2 / (n + 1), Where n is the number of periods.
2. EMA Calculation
EMA = (Current Price) × Multiplier + (Previous EMA) × (1 − Multiplier)
In this strategy, the EMA acts as a long-term trend filter. For instance, long trades are considered only when the price closes above the EMA (default: 100-period). This increases the likelihood of entering trades aligned with the prevailing trend.
Next, let’s discuss the short-term trend filter, which combines the Williams Alligator and Williams Fractals. Williams Alligator
Developed by Bill Williams, the Alligator is a technical indicator that identifies trends and potential market reversals. It consists of three smoothed moving averages:
Jaw (Blue Line): The slowest of the three, based on a 13-period smoothed moving average shifted 8 bars ahead.
Teeth (Red Line): The medium-speed line, derived from an 8-period smoothed moving average shifted 5 bars forward.
Lips (Green Line): The fastest line, calculated using a 5-period smoothed moving average shifted 3 bars forward.
When the lines diverge and align in order, the "Alligator" is "awake," signaling a strong trend. When the lines overlap or intertwine, the "Alligator" is "asleep," indicating a range-bound or sideways market. This indicator helps traders determine when to enter or avoid trades.
Fractals, another tool by Bill Williams, help identify potential reversal points on a price chart. A fractal forms over at least five consecutive bars, with the middle bar showing either:
Up Fractal: Occurs when the middle bar has a higher high than the two preceding and two following bars, suggesting a potential downward reversal.
Down Fractal: Happens when the middle bar shows a lower low than the surrounding two bars, hinting at a possible upward reversal.
Traders often use fractals alongside other indicators to confirm trends or reversals, enhancing decision-making accuracy.
How do these tools work together in this strategy? Let’s consider an example of an uptrend.
When the price breaks above an up fractal, it signals a potential bullish trend. This occurs because the up fractal represents a shift in market behavior, where a temporary high was formed due to selling pressure. If the price revisits this level and breaks through, it suggests the market sentiment has turned bullish.
The breakout must occur above the Alligator’s teeth line to confirm the trend. A breakout below the teeth is considered invalid, and the downtrend might still persist. Conversely, in a downtrend, the same logic applies with down fractals.
In this strategy if the most recent up fractal breakout occurs above the Alligator's teeth and follows the last down fractal breakout below the teeth, the algorithm identifies an uptrend. Long trades can be opened during this phase if a signal aligns. If the price breaks a down fractal below the teeth line during an uptrend, the strategy assumes the uptrend has ended and closes all open long trades.
By combining the EMA as a long-term trend filter with the Alligator and fractals as short-term filters, this approach increases the likelihood of opening profitable trades while staying aligned with market dynamics.
Now let's talk about the trading zones concept and its signals. To understand this we need to briefly introduce what is AO and AC. The Awesome Oscillator (AO), developed by Bill Williams, is a momentum indicator designed to measure market momentum by contrasting recent price movements with a longer-term historical perspective. It helps traders detect potential trend reversals and assess the strength of ongoing trends.
The formula for AO is as follows:
AO = SMA5(Median Price) − SMA34(Median Price)
where:
Median Price = (High + Low) / 2
SMA5 = 5-period Simple Moving Average of the Median Price
SMA 34 = 34-period Simple Moving Average of the Median Price
The Acceleration/Deceleration (AC) Indicator, introduced by Bill Williams, measures the rate of change in market momentum. It highlights shifts in the driving force of price movements and helps traders spot early signs of trend changes. The AC Indicator is particularly useful for identifying whether the current momentum is accelerating or decelerating, which can indicate potential reversals or continuations. For AC calculation we shall use the AO calculated above is the following formula:
AC = AO − SMA5(AO) , where SMA5(AO)is the 5-period Simple Moving Average of the Awesome Oscillator
When the AC is above the zero line and rising, it suggests accelerating upward momentum.
When the AC is below the zero line and falling, it indicates accelerating downward momentum.
When the AC is below zero line and rising it suggests the decelerating the downtrend momentum. When AC is above the zero line and falling, it suggests the decelerating the uptrend momentum.
Now let's discuss the trading zones concept and how it can create the signal. Zones are created by the combination of AO and AC. We can divide three zone types:
Greed zone: when the AO and AC both are rising
Red zone: when the AO and AC both are decreasing
Gray zone: when one of AO or AC is rising, the other is falling
Gray zone is considered as uncertainty. AC and AO are moving in the opposite direction. Strategy skip such price action to decrease the chance to stuck in the losing trade during potential sideways. Red zone is also not interesting for the algorithm because both indicators consider the trend as bearish, but strategy opens only long trades. It is waiting for the green zone to increase the chance to open trade in the direction of the potential uptrend. When we have 2 candles in a row in the green zone script executes a long trade with 10% of capital.
Two green zone candles in a row is considered by algorithm as a bullish trend, but now so strong, that's the reason why trade is going to be closed when the combination of Alligator and Fractals will consider the the trend change from bullish to bearish. If id did not happens, algorithm starts to count the green zone candles in a row. When we have 5 in a row script change the trade closing condition. Such situation is considered is a high probability strong bull market and all trades will be closed if candle's low will be lower than fifth green zone candle's low. This is used to increase probability to secure the profit. If long trades are initiated, the strategy continues utilizing subsequent signals until the total number of trades reaches a maximum of 5. Each trade uses 10% of capital.
Why we use trading zones signals? If currently strategy algorithm considers the high probability of the short-term uptrend with the Alligator and Fractals combination pointed out above and the long-term trend is also suggested by the EMA filter as bullish. Rising AC and AO values in the direction of the most likely main trend signaling that we have the high probability of the fastest bullish phase on the market. The main idea is to take part in such rapid moves and add trades if this move continues its acceleration according to indicators.

Awesome_Accelerator_Zone OscillatorExplanation and Usage Guide for AO_AC_ZONE Oscillator
Indicator Overview
The **AO_AC_ZONE** oscillator is based on the concepts introduced by **Bill Williams** in his book *New Trading Dimensions*. This indicator combines the **Awesome Oscillator (AO)**, **Accelerator Oscillator (AC)**, and a custom **Zone Oscillator**, visualizing them together in a clear, color-coded format.
The Zone Oscillator is derived from the relationship between AO and AC, indicating the market's dominant momentum state (bullish, bearish, or neutral). It also integrates real-time candle coloring to visually align price bars with the Zone's momentum.
---
**Components**
1. **Awesome Oscillator (AO)**:
- AO measures the difference between a 5-period and 34-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) applied to the midpoints of candles.
- It reflects market momentum, where:
- Green bars = increasing momentum
- Red bars = decreasing momentum
2. **Accelerator Oscillator (AC)**:
- AC is calculated as the difference between AO and its 5-period SMA.
- It indicates the acceleration or deceleration of market momentum.
- Fuchsia bars = increasing momentum
- Purple bars = decreasing momentum
3. **Zone Oscillator**:
- The Zone combines AO and AC states:
- **Green Zone**: Both AO and AC are positive (bullish momentum).
- **Red Zone**: Both AO and AC are negative (bearish momentum).
- **Gray Zone**: AO and AC have differing signs (neutral/uncertain momentum).
- Candle colors dynamically match the Zone’s state for enhanced visual clarity.
---
**How to Use the Indicator**
**1. Interpreting the Oscillators**
- **AO**: Use it to detect momentum direction and changes. Pay attention to shifts in bar color:
- **Increasing AO (Aqua)**: Bullish momentum gaining strength.
- **Decreasing AO (Navy)**: Bullish momentum weakening or bearish momentum strengthening.
- **AC**: Provides early signals of momentum shifts.
- If AC changes color ahead of AO, it signals potential trend reversals or accelerations.
**2. Using the Zone Oscillator**
- **Green Zone**:
- Both AO and AC are positive.
- Indicates a strong bullish trend. Look for buying opportunities in line with the trend.
- **Red Zone**:
- Both AO and AC are negative.
- Signals strong bearish momentum. Look for shorting opportunities.
- **Gray Zone**:
- AO and AC are in conflict.
- Represents uncertainty; avoid trading or wait for a clear signal.
---
**Real-Time Application**
**Candle Coloring**
- The indicator modifies candle colors to match the Zone Oscillator's state:
- **Green Candles**: Strong bullish momentum.
- **Red Candles**: Strong bearish momentum.
- **Gray Candles**: Neutral momentum.
**Recommended Strategy (Based on New Trading Dimensions)**:
1. **Identify the Zone**:
- Focus on Green Zones for long entries and Red Zones for short entries.
2. **Look for AO/AC Confirmation**:
- Enter trades in the direction of both AO and AC when they align with the Zone.
- For exits, monitor when AO and AC conflict (Gray Zone).
3. **Use in Combination**:
- Combine this oscillator with fractals or trend indicators to confirm signals.
---
**Benefits**
- Visualizes momentum strength, acceleration, and alignment in one chart.
- Simplifies decision-making by integrating price action with oscillator dynamics.
- Supports faster trade identification and execution by highlighting bullish, bearish, and neutral zones.
---
**Disclaimer**
This indicator is a tool to assist in market analysis. Always incorporate proper risk management and avoid trading during uncertain conditions (Gray Zones). For optimal results, use this oscillator in conjunction with other analysis methods like support/resistance, volume analysis, and trend-following systems.

Support and Resistance ZoneSupport and Resistance Zone Indicator :
Introduction :
The purpose of this indicator is to identify the chart symbol's main supports and resistances. It displays these key zones, which are very important psychological points for traders. Since support and resistance are not very precise levels, the indicator displays them as zones.
Pivots :
Pivots are a key concept in identifying support and resistance. The indicator uses two types of pivot:
Pivot high : This is a high point that has not been reached by a user-defined number of candles on either the left and right of this candle. The " left pivot leg " is the number of candles before this pivot point that have not reached the realized high, and the " right pivot leg " is the number of candles after this pivot point that have not reached this high. If these two conditions are met, the pivot point is considered a turning point, and resistance is probably the cause.
Pivot low : This is a low point that has not been reached by a user-defined number of candles on either the left or right. The " left pivot leg " is the number of candles before this pivot point that have not reached the candle low, and the " right pivot leg " is the number of candles after this pivot point that have not reached this low. If these two conditions are met, the pivot point is considered a turning point, and support is probably the cause.
Support/Resistance area :
If a pivot point has been identified, the indicator considers it a resistance if it's a pivot high, or a support if it's a pivot low. To define the support or resistance zone, we'll use the ATR (Average True Range), an indicator that measures asset volatility. We'll take the ATR of the candle for which the pivot was spotted, and use it as the width of the support or resistance zone. Thus the upper line of support/resistance is at pivot+atr/2 and the lower line is at pivot-atr/2 . The greater the volatility, the larger the zone.
New Support/Resistance :
If a new pivot has been identified, but the level of this pivot lies between the lower line and the upper line of the previous support or resistance, the indicator considers this to be the same support or resistance as before. In this case, no new support or resistance is created. The pivot must be outside the area of the previous support or resistance to be validated.
Anticipated Support/Resistance :
This indicator also allows early detection of support or resistance. To do this, the value of the right pivot legs will be shortened in order to find these areas more quickly. The support or resistance will then be considered anticipated and may disappear at any time if the high/low is reached. On the other hand, if the high/low is not reached, and a number of candles equal to the " Right Pivot Legs" parameter has elapsed since the detection of this anticipated support/resistance, it will be considered validated and will integrate the other supports/resistances of the chart.
Extended supports/resistances :
For a more optimal view, the indicator allows the user to choose the number of last support or resistance levels to be extended to the last candle. This must be specified in the indicator parameters.
Parameters :
Pivot Legs : Determine the left and right legs of the pivot i.e the number of candle before and after the pivot that doesn’t reach pivot point. The pivot is validated only if this two conditions are verified.
Extend Last Supports : Number of supports to extend to the last bar
Extend Last Resistances : Number of resistances to extend to the last bar
Show Support/Resistance Anticipated : If yes, will find anticipated support and resistance
Right Pivot Legs for Anticipation : Determine the right legs of pivots to find faster a support or a resistance.
Conclusion :
This indicator plot support and resistance zones based on pivot. The width of support and resistance zones are calculated with ATR. Possibility to find anticipated support and resistance in order to have more timeliness informations.
Enjoy the indicator and don’t forget to take the trade ;)
Liquidity Grab Zones | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Liquidity Grab Zones Indicator! This indicator finds liquidity grabs in the current ticker and renders buyside & sellside liquidity grab zones. The retests and breakout of the zones are labeled, and you can set up alerts to get notified. For more information, please check the "HOW DOES IT WORK" section.
Features of the new Liquidity Grab Zones Indicator :
Renders Buyside & Sellside Liquidity Grab Zones
Retests & Breaks
Inverse Zones After Broken Feature
Alerts For All Features
Customizable Algorithm
Customizable Styles
🚩UNIQUENESS
Liquidity grabs can be useful when determining candles that have executed a lot of market orders, so you can plann your trades accordingly. This indicator lets you customize the pivot length and the wick-body ratio for liquidity grabs, provide retest & breakout labels, with customized styling and alerts.
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Liquidity grabs occur when one of the latest pivots has a false breakout. Then, if the wick to body ratio of the bar is higher than 0.5 (can be changed from the settings) a zone is plotted.
These zones usually indicate areas of high market interest where price action may reverse or accelerate. Identifying these zones can provide traders with critical levels for entering or exiting trades. A breakout of these zones generally mean strong movements are inbound, while failing breakouts make these zones act like support / resistance zones.
The indicator also reverses the type of the zone after an invalidation (can be turned off from the settings). This feature helps traders identify potential reversals more accurately.
The zone width is set to the area from the wick to the body of the candlestick, which can be seen here :
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Pivot Length -> This setting determines the range of the pivots. This means a candle has to have the highest / lowest wick of the previous X bars and the next X bars to become a high / low pivot.
Wick-Body Ratio -> After a pivot has a false breakout, the wick-body ratio of the latest candle is tested. The resulting ratio must be higher than this setting for it to be considered as a liquidity grab.
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for Liquidity Grab Zone Invalidation.
Use these customizable settings to fine-tune the indicator according to your trading strategy and preferences.
High Liquidity Zones and Threshold VolumeThe High Liquidity Zones indicator is designed to identify areas of significant liquidity in the market. It helps traders recognize regions where trading volume is notably higher, indicating potential areas of increased market activity and interest.
The indicator calculates the average volume over a specified lookback period, which can be customized according to individual preferences. This average volume acts as a reference point to determine the threshold volume level. The threshold percentage input allows users to set the sensitivity of the indicator, defining the minimum volume required for an area to be considered a high liquidity zone.
When the current volume surpasses the threshold volume level, the indicator highlights these areas as high liquidity zones. This visual representation allows traders to quickly identify and focus on periods of heightened trading activity. The high liquidity zones are marked with square shapes below the histogram, providing a clear visual indication on the chart.
The first plot line represents the threshold volume level as a histogram, showing the volume levels in relation to the threshold. This histogram helps traders assess the magnitude of the volume in the identified high liquidity zones.
The second plot line represents the threshold volume's simple moving average (SMA) over the lookback period. The SMA acts as a reference line, smoothing out fluctuations in the threshold volume and providing a more stable measure of high liquidity zones. Traders can use this line to better understand the overall trend and dynamics of liquidity.
The High Liquidity Zones indicator offers flexibility, allowing traders to adapt it to their preferred trading style and timeframe. By adjusting the lookback period and threshold percentage, users can fine-tune the sensitivity of the indicator based on their trading strategies and market conditions.
Furthermore, traders can combine the High Liquidity Zones indicator with other technical analysis tools to confirm trading signals or identify areas of potential support and resistance. It can help them locate price levels where market participants have a substantial presence and where significant buying or selling pressure may occur.
Overall, the High Liquidity Zones indicator is a valuable tool for traders seeking to gain insights into market liquidity dynamics. By highlighting areas of intense trading activity, it assists in making informed trading decisions and identifying opportunities within the market.
Volume-based Support & Resistance Zones-V1 By Trade Mastership™ The all-new Support & Resistance Zones indicator, which has been upgraded to offer traders more powerful features and functionality. This innovative indicator identifies high-volume fractal lows or highs to create zones based on the size of the wick for that timeframe's candle. This makes it easy for traders to visualize which price levels are the most significant for either a trend continuation or a reversal when zones are broken and retested.
The original script for this indicator was created by Trade Mastership, with additional modifications by L N Behera. Credit goes to both of them for the majority of the logic behind this script. Since then, the script has been improved with several changes, including:
Changing the default S/R lines from plots to lines, and giving users the option to change between solid, dashed, or dotted lines for both S/R lines
Adding additional timeframes and more options for TF1, beyond the current TF. Now, users have four timeframes to plot S/R zones from
Giving users the option to easily change the line thickness for all S/R lines
Making it easier to change the colors of S/R lines and zones by consolidating the options under settings (rather than under style)
Adding extensions to active SR Zones to extend all the way right
Adding the option to extend or not extend the previous S/R zones up to the next S/R zone
Adding optional timeframe labels to active S/R zones, with left and right options, as well as the option to adjust how far to the right the label is set
Fixing an issue where the higher timeframe S/R zone was not properly starting from the high/low of fractal. Now, any higher timeframe S/R will begin exactly at the High/Low points. Note that this may not work perfectly on stocks, and if a fractal high/low is too many bars in the past, it will revert to a default max bars back to avoid script errors.
Adding a function to prevent S/R zones from lower timeframes displaying while on a higher timeframe. This helps clean up the chart quite a bit.
Creating arrays for each timeframe's boxes and lines so that the number of S/R zones can be controlled for each timeframe and limit memory consumption.
Adding new alert options and customized alert messages
Here's how this indicator works: it looks for fractal highs or fractal lows with volume that pierces above the volume's Moving Average. This moving average value can be modified in the settings for each timeframe. The fractal highs will be confirmed with three successive higher highs followed by two successive lower highs and vice versa for the fractal lows. The zone is created from the fractal high/low and the close of the candle for whatever timeframe you selected. The bigger the zone, the more significant that zone is.
Traders can disable any zone, change the zones to show lines only, and modify all the colors, transparencies, and thickness of lines for all the zones. To create alerts, traders can enable the types of alerts they want for each timeframe in the indicator's settings. After applying changes, right-click on one of the zones on the chart, and click "Add Alert on Vol S/R Zones." You do not need to add a title, as the correct alert messages are already built-in.
The latest update has migrated the script to Pine Script Version 5 and added a higher number of total boxes/lines to show on the chart. It has also increased the max bars count to the maximum Pine Script allows, enabling traders to utilize as many bars as possible when drawing the left side of SR zones that are very far back on the chart. Additionally, the update fixed issues where the indicator would not load on 1 minute and 3-minute charts unless higher timeframe SR zones

Unmitigated 50% of the RangeThis indicator is designed to display unmitigated 50% zones of price ranges within two swing (High and Low) points. The 50% level serves as a probable target for retracements before the price resumes its movement in the direction of the most recent swing. The underlying theory is that Price Action tends to correct unbalanced price zones by returning to 50% of the range.
The indicator identifies highs and lows utilizing the “Left Swing Sensitivity” setting, which detects the high/low points within the specified number of bars. It then ensures that the zone meets a minimum size requirement, configured via the “Minimum Leg Size” setting, to filter out smaller legs/zones that would not provide sufficient profit and loss opportunities for entries at 50% and take profit at the most recent swing point.
To prevent duplication of zones when the price is gradually moving up, an "Auto Adjust Levels" setting is available. Enabled by default, this feature automatically cleans up smaller zones, retaining only the primary zone between the most recent swing point and the outer swing.
Additionally, the indicator automatically removes mitigated zones where the price has returned to the 50% level, thus maintaining clean charts.
There are several visualization settings available, offering comprehensive control over what is displayed on the charts:
Control the color and style of the lines representing the 1, 0, and 50% levels.
Choose whether to display labels and if they should show the price at the rendered levels.
Optionally extend the lines/labels to the right for each level.

Supply and demandHi all!
This is my take on supply/demand. The gist is that it creates a zone if there is a big enough reaction. This is configurable in settings as "Minimum range (ATR factor)" (the Average True Length of length 14) that is the distance that the price must travel and "Reaction bars" that is the maximum number of bars that price must travel this distance. The zones that are shown are the ones that have a retest, break and retest or is unmitigated (untouched). If a zone is mitigated (entered) or broken it is temporarily hidden. For a zone to be created it needs to have this reaction and the previous bar does not.
So this script will show you zones that are fresh (unmitigated), retested or broken and retested. This means that the zones that are shown have "proven" that they are good zones through this. Basically it means that the script creates a bunch of zones and then picks the good once. This makes the script have some latency, but will hopefully give you good zones. A zone is completely removed if it's broken twice (it's okay if it's broken once and can still have a retest after it has flipped from previous supply (or resistance) into demand (or support)).
Here is a zone (the one that has the lowest opacity) that is broken and retested that could have resulted in a good long trade (the settings are default but has a stop in the beginning of 2024):
You have a setting to remove zones that are pierced (broken by price wicks). The following zone is pierced by price (in the beginning of May) that will not be shown after the start of May if you have "Pierced" checked (the indicator has default settings but a stop in the middle of April):
You have a trend section. Zones that create a reaction upwards can only be created if the trend is considered to be up, and vice versa. The options here are "SMA50" (the current price needs to be over the Simple Moving Average of length 50) and "SMA50, SMA200" (price needs to be over the Simple Moving Average of length 50 and the Simple Moving Average of length 50 needs to be over the Simple Moving Average of length 200). If these conditions are met the trend is considered to be up, otherwise it's down. You can disable this by choosing "No detection".
The zones that are shown also need to be within a limit (of the current price). This limit is 10 (factor of the Average True Range if length 14) by default. Set this to 0 to deactivate. This is useful for not showing zones that are far away from current price and therefore unlikely to be interacted with.
You can stop the calculation of zones (through the "Stop" value in the settings). This is useful to see if previous zones were any good. I used it in my testing of the script but left it because it can be nice to have.
The zones created by the script have different transparency based upon the zone's interaction. The clearest zones are the ones that are unmitigated, the second clearest ones are the ones having a retest and lastly the zones which are most unclear are the ones having a break and then a retest.
You can see the concept of this script to be a mix of supply/demand and support/resistance, having zones being unmitigated (untouched) as the most important but also show the zones having an interaction (in the form of a retest or a break and retest).
This is from a previous supply (or resistance) zone that has flipped into demand (or support) and has shown to be a good zone through a retest followed by a rally (default settings):
This zone has multiple retest and then rallies that could have given a good long trades (it has the default settings but a "Stop" time at 2022-01-14):
TODO:
- Create zones based on pivots
- Handle overlapping zones
- Incorporate volume in the creation and/or interaction with zones
- Add alerts
- Add ability to set maximum zone width
- Add ability to set the maximum number of retest bars
- ...?
The example for this publication has the default settings bit a "Stop" and a tighter "Limit" of 4.
I hope this explanation makes sense, let me know otherwise. Also let me know if you have any suggestions on improvements.
Best of trading luck!
Dynamic Support/Resistance Zones [ChartPrime]Dynamic Support/Resistance Zones is a new way to visualize key support and resistance levels by analyzing pivot points. It aggregates these points into bins and uses different scoring methods to determine the strength of the zone. The Linear method treats every pivot the same, Time gives more importance to recent pivots, and Volume scores pivots based on trading activity.
It visually represents the strength of price zones using either a visual distribution or an overlay of colors. Areas with many aggregated pivots are marked using the High Color, indicating strong support or resistance. Fewer pivots are shown in Low Color, suggesting weaker levels. Users can also see the score using the distribution mode to more accurately determine the strength of these areas.
The indicator also includes a special moving average line, calculated from pivot prices and their weights. This gives a central pivot level, allowing you to see the average pivot position. We have also provided some smoothing for this line to make it easer to use.
We have included various options to tailor your analysis. These include selecting the scoring method for pivots and adjusting the number of pivots to consider, along with many visual aids. Traders can also set the level of filtering for the distribution of pivots. By default the filter isn't enabled but when it is enabled it allows for a less noisy experience at the expense of precision.
We have included four pivot periods that you can modify and toggle. The idea is that longer period pivots will enhance the strength of the shorter period ones providing a natural way to weight pivot levels. You can also specify whether you want to use pivot high, pivot low, or both in your analysis.
Here are some details on the key inputs:
Weighting Style: Choose how to score pivot points. Options include: Linear: Treats each pivot equally. Time: Gives more importance to recent pivots. Volume: Scores pivots based on trading volume.
Number of Pivots: Set the number of pivots to consider in the calculation. Both pivot highs and lows are treated separately.
Filtering: Adjust the level of filtering applied to the distribution of pivots. A higher value smooths the distribution, providing a cleaner visual representation at the cost of some precision. This setting is crucial for managing the trade-off between clarity and detail in the visualization of support and resistance zones.
Distribution Scale: Determines the scale of the distribution on the screen. It influences both the visual aspect and the precision of the calculations, allowing for a balance between visibility and analytical accuracy.
Manual Precision: Manually set the number of divisions within the range. This setting offers control over the granularity.
Auto Precision: When enabled, it automatically adjusts the precision based on the average range of a candle, ensuring a minimum level of detail in the visualization.
Show Distribution: Toggle the visibility of the distribution of pivot points. When activated, it provides a detailed visual representation of where pivots are concentrated.
Show Score in Distribution: Opt to display the actual score within the distribution. This feature adds a quantitative element to the visual representation, offering a clearer understanding of the pivot point concentration.
Distribution Overlay: Activate a heat map overlay to visualize the distribution of pivots. You can also adjusting the transparency of this overlay, providing a balanced view that does not obstruct the underlying price chart.
Show Support/Resistance: Enable lines that indicate identified support and resistance levels based on the aggregated pivots. This feature provides a clear, actionable insight directly on the chart.
S/R Zone Visibility: Choose to display the support/resistance zones and set their transparency. It offers an extended visual cue about the potential breadth of support or resistance areas.
Pivot Level Average: Introduce a moving average line that's calculated based on the weighted pivot levels. You can also adjust the smoothness of this line.
Dynamic Support/Resistance Zones is an intuitive and versatile trading indicator that offers a novel approach to identifying support and resistance levels by analyzing pivot points. It blends a variety of scoring methods, customizable visual representations, and a unique moving average line. With its customizable settings for pivot analysis, visual clarity, and precision, it's an nifty tool for traders looking to enhance their decision making with detailed and actionable insights.
