Butterfly Harmonic Pattern [TradingFinder] Harmonic Detector🔵 Introduction
The Butterfly Harmonic Pattern is a sophisticated and highly regarded tool in technical analysis, utilized by traders to identify potential reversal points in the financial markets. This pattern is distinguished by its reliance on Fibonacci ratios and geometric configurations, which aid in predicting price movements with remarkable precision.
The origin of the Butterfly Harmonic Pattern can be traced back to the pioneering work of Bryce Gilmore, who is credited with discovering this pattern. Gilmore's extensive research and expertise in Fibonacci ratios laid the groundwork for the identification and application of this pattern in technical analysis.
The Butterfly pattern, like other harmonic patterns, is based on the principle that market movements are not random but follow specific structures and ratios.
The pattern is characterized by a distinct "M" shape in bullish scenarios and a "W" shape in bearish scenarios, each indicating a potential reversal point. These formations are identified by specific Fibonacci retracement and extension levels, making the Butterfly pattern a powerful tool for traders seeking to capitalize on market turning points.
The precise nature of the Butterfly pattern allows for the accurate prediction of target prices and the establishment of strategic entry and exit points, making it an indispensable component of a trader's analytical arsenal.
Bullish :
Bearish :
🔵 How to Use
Like other harmonic patterns, the Butterfly pattern is categorized based on how it forms at the end of an uptrend or downtrend. Unlike the Gartley and Bat patterns, the Butterfly pattern, similar to the Crab pattern, forms outside the wave 3 range at the end of a rally.
🟣 Types of Butterfly Harmonic Patterns
🟣 Bullish Butterfly Pattern
This pattern forms at the end of a downtrend and leads to a trend reversal from a downtrend to an uptrend.
🟣 Bearish Butterfly Pattern
In contrast to the Bullish Butterfly pattern, this pattern forms at the end of an uptrend and warns analysts of a trend reversal to a downtrend. In this case, traders are encouraged to shift their trading stance from buy trades to sell trades.
Advantages and Limitations of the Butterfly Pattern in Technical Analysis :
The Butterfly pattern is considered one of the precise and stable tools in financial market analysis. However, it is always important to pay special attention to the advantages and limitations of each pattern.
Here, we review the advantages and disadvantages of using the Butterfly harmonic pattern :
The main advantage of the Butterfly pattern is providing very accurate signals.
Using Fibonacci golden ratios and geometric rules, the Butterfly pattern identifies patterns accurately and systematically. (This high accuracy significantly helps investors in making trading decisions.)
Identifying this pattern requires expertise and experience in technical analysis.
Recognizing the Butterfly pattern might be complex for beginner traders. (Correct identification of the pattern necessitates mastery over geometric principles and Fibonacci ratios.)
The Butterfly harmonic pattern might issue false trading signals. (Traders usually combine the Butterfly pattern with other technical tools to confirm buy and sell signals.)
🔵 Setting
🟣 Logical Setting
ZigZag Pivot Period : You can adjust the period so that the harmonic patterns are adjusted according to the pivot period you want. This factor is the most important parameter in pattern recognition.
Show Valid Forma t: If this parameter is on "On" mode, only patterns will be displayed that they have exact format and no noise can be seen in them. If "Off" is, the patterns displayed that maybe are noisy and do not exactly correspond to the original pattern.
Show Formation Last Pivot Confirm : if Turned on, you can see this ability of patterns when their last pivot is formed. If this feature is off, it will see the patterns as soon as they are formed. The advantage of this option being clear is less formation of fielded patterns, and it is accompanied by the latest pattern seeing and a sharp reduction in reward to risk.
Period of Formation Last Pivot : Using this parameter you can determine that the last pivot is based on Pivot period.
🟣 Genaral Setting
Show : Enter "On" to display the template and "Off" to not display the template.
Color : Enter the desired color to draw the pattern in this parameter.
LineWidth : You can enter the number 1 or numbers higher than one to adjust the thickness of the drawing lines. This number must be an integer and increases with increasing thickness.
LabelSize : You can adjust the size of the labels by using the "size.auto", "size.tiny", "size.smal", "size.normal", "size.large" or "size.huge" entries.
🟣 Alert Setting
Alert : On / Off
Message Frequency : This string parameter defines the announcement frequency. Choices include: "All" (activates the alert every time the function is called), "Once Per Bar" (activates the alert only on the first call within the bar), and "Once Per Bar Close" (the alert is activated only by a call at the last script execution of the real-time bar upon closing). The default setting is "Once per Bar".
Show Alert Time by Time Zone : The date, hour, and minute you receive in alert messages can be based on any time zone you choose. For example, if you want New York time, you should enter "UTC-4". This input is set to the time zone "UTC" by default.
Vlad Waves█ CONCEPT
Acceleration Line (Blue)
The Acceleration Line is calculated as the difference between the 8-period SMA and the 20-period SMA.
This line helps to identify the momentum and potential turning points in the market.
Signal Line (Red)
The Signal Line is an 8-period SMA of the Acceleration Line.
This line smooths out the Acceleration Line to generate clearer signals.
Long-Term Average (Green)
The Long-Term Average is a 200-period SMA of the Acceleration Line.
This line provides a broader context of the market trend, helping to distinguish between long-term and short-term movements.
█ SIGNALS
Buy Mode
A buy signal occurs when the Acceleration Line crosses above the Signal Line while below the Long-Term Average. This indicates a potential bullish reversal in the market.
When the Signal Line crosses the Acceleration Line above the Long-Term Average, consider placing a stop rather than reversing the position to protect gains from potential pullbacks.
Sell Mode
A sell signal occurs when the Acceleration Line crosses below the Signal Line while above the Long-Term Average. This indicates a potential bearish reversal in the market.
When the Signal Line crosses the Acceleration Line below the Long-Term Average, consider placing a stop rather than reversing the position to protect gains from potential pullbacks.
█ UTILITY
This indicator is not recommended for standalone buy or sell signals. Instead, it is designed to identify market cycles and turning points, aiding in the decision-making process.
Entry signals are most effective when they occur away from the Long-Term Average, as this helps to avoid sideways movements.
Use larger timeframes, such as daily or weekly charts, for better accuracy and reliability of the signals.
█ CREDITS
The idea for this indicator came from Fabio Figueiredo (Vlad).
Wolfe Wave Detector [LuxAlgo]The Wolfe Wave Detector displays occurrences of Wolfe Waves, alongside a target line. A multiple swing detection approach is used to maximize the number of detected waves.
The indicator includes a dashboard with the number of detected waves, as well as the number of reached targets.
🔶 USAGE
The Wolfe Wave pattern is a chart pattern composed of five segments, with the initial segment extremities (points XABCD) forming a channel containing price variations.
After the price reaches point D , we can expect a reversal toward a target line (point E ). The target line is obtained by connecting and extending point X -> C .
The script draws the XABCD pattern and a projection of where E might potentially be located.
The projection is derived from the intersection between the target line and a line starting from D , parallel to B-C . From this line, margins are added, left and right, creating a wedge-shaped figure in most cases.
When the price passes the target line, this is highlighted by a dot. The dot and pattern are green by default when the target is above D and red when the target is below D . Colors can be edited in the settings. The dashed target line is colored in the opposite color.
As seen in the above example, the price trend can reverse after reaching the target line.
🔹 Symmetry
Ideally, the Wolfe Wave must have a degree of symmetry; every upward line should have a similar angle to the other upward lines, and the same should be true for the downward lines.
Also, the lines forming the channel should be as parallel as possible.
Users have the option to adjust the tolerance:
Margin controls the wave symmetry of the pattern
Angle controls the channel symmetry of the pattern
It's important to note that in both cases, a lower number will lead to more symmetrical patterns, but they may appear less frequently.
It is also important to note that increasing the Margin can delay validating the pattern. In the meantime, the price could surpass the channel in the opposite direction, invalidating and deleting the otherwise valid pattern.
🔹 Multiple Swings
Users can set a Minimum Swing length (for example 2) and a Maximum Swing length (for example 100) which defines the range of the swing point detection length, higher values for these settings will detect longer-term Wolfe patterns, while a larger range will allow for the detection of a larger number of patterns.
By using multiple swings, it is possible to find smaller next to larger patterns at the same time.
The dashboard shows the number of patterns found and targets reached. When, for example, bullish patterns are disabled in the settings, the dashboard only shows the results of bearish patterns.
🔹 Extend Target Line
The publication includes a setting that allows the Target Line to be extended up to 50 bars further. As seen in the above example, the Target Line can still be reached even after the pattern has been finalized. Once the Target Line is reached, it won't be updated further.
Here is another example of a Target Line being reached later on.
The Target Line acted as a support level, after which where the price changed direction.
🔹 Show Progression
An option is included to show the progression before the pattern is completed. Users can make use of the XABC pattern or visualize where point D should be positioned.
The focus lies on the bar range (between the left and right borders of the grey rectangle). The pattern is considered invalid and deleted when point D is beyond these limits. The height of the rectangle is optional. Ideally, the price should be located between the top and bottom of the rectangle, but it is not mandatory.
Show Progression has three options including:
Full: Show all lines of XABC plus line C-D and rectangle for the position of point D
Partial: Show line C-D and rectangle for the position of point D
None: Only show valid completed patterns
The 'Partial' option in the 'Show Progression' feature is designed to help users locate the desired position of point D without the visual clutter caused by the XABC lines. This can be useful for those who prefer a cleaner visual representation of the evolving pattern.

Ichimoku Theories [LuxAlgo]The Ichimoku Theories indicator is the most complete Ichimoku tool you will ever need. Four tools combined into one to harness all the power of Ichimoku Kinkō Hyō.
This tool features the following concepts based on the work of Goichi Hosoda:
Ichimoku Kinkō Hyō: Original Ichimoku indicator with its five main lines and kumo.
Time Theory: automatic time cycle identification and forecasting to understand market timing.
Wave Theory: automatic wave identification to understand market structure.
Price Theory: automatic identification of developing N waves and possible price targets to understand future price behavior.
🔶 ICHIMOKU KINKŌ HYŌ
Ichimoku with lines only, Kumo only and both together
Let us start with the basics: the Ichimoku original indicator is a tool to understand the market, not to predict it, it is a trend-following tool, so it is best used in trending markets.
Ichimoku tells us what is happening in the market and what may happen next, the aim of the tool is to provide market understanding, not trading signals.
The tool is based on calculating the mid-point between the high and low of three pre-defined ranges as the equilibrium price for short (9 periods), medium (26 periods), and long (52 periods) time horizons:
Tenkan sen: middle point of the range of the last 9 candles
Kinjun sen: middle point of the range of the last 26 candles
Senkou span A: middle point between Tankan Sen and Kijun Sen, plotted 26 candles into the future
Senkou span B: midpoint of the range of the last 52 candles, plotted 26 candles into the future
Chikou span: closing price plotted 26 candles into the past
Kumo: area between Senkou pans A and B (kumo means cloud in Japanese)
The most basic use of the tool is to use the Kumo as an area of possible support or resistance.
🔶 TIME THEORY
Current cycles and forecast
Time theory is a critical concept used to identify historical and current market cycles, and use these to forecast the next ones. This concept is based on the Kihon Suchi (translating to "Basic Numbers" in Japanese), these are 9 and 26, and from their combinations we obtain the following sequence:
9, 17, 26, 33, 42, 51, 65, 76, 129, 172, 200, 257
The main idea is that the market moves in cycles with periods set by the Kihon Suchi sequence.
When the cycle has the same exact periods, we obtain the Taito Suchi (translating to "Same Number" in Japanese).
This tool allows traders to identify historical and current market cycles and forecast the next one.
🔹 Time Cycle Identification
Presentation of 4 different modes: SWINGS, HIGHS, KINJUN, and WAVES .
The tool draws a horizontal line at the bottom of the chart showing the cycles detected and their size.
The following settings are used:
Time Cycle Mode: up to 7 different modes
Wave Cycle: Which wave to use when WAVE mode is selected, only active waves in the Wave Theory settings will be used.
Show Time Cycles: keep a cleaner chart by disabling cycles visualisation
Show last X time cycles: how many cycles to display
🔹 Time Cycle Forecast
Showcasing the two forecasting patterns: Kihon Suchi and Taito Suchi
The tool plots horizontal lines, a solid anchor line, and several dotted forecast lines.
The following settings are used:
Show time cycle forecast: to keep things clean
Forecast Pattern: comes in two flavors
Kihon Suchi plots a line from the anchor at each number in the Kihon Suchi sequence.
Taito Suchi plot lines from the anchor with the same size detected in the anchored cycle
Anchor forecast on last X time cycle: traders can place the anchor in any detected cycle
🔶 WAVE THEORY
All waves activated with overlapping
The main idea behind this theory is that markets move like waves in the sea, back and forth (making swing lows and highs). Understanding the current market structure is key to having realistic expectations of what the market may do next. The waves are divided into Simple and Complex.
The following settings are used:
Basic Waves: allows traders to activate waves I, V and N
Complex Waves: allows traders to activate waves P, Y and W
Overlapping waves: to avoid missing out on any of the waves activated
Show last X waves: how many waves will be displayed
🔹 Basic Waves
The three basic waves
The basic waves from which all waves are made are I, V, and N
I wave: one leg moves
V wave: two legs move, one against the other
N wave: Three legs move, push, pull back, and another push
🔹 Complex Waves
Three complex waves
There are other waves like
P wave: contracting market
Y wave: expanding market
W wave: double top or double bottom
🔶 PRICE THEORY
All targets for the current N wave with their calculations
This theory is based on identifying developing N waves and predicting potential price targets based on that developing wave.
The tool displays 4 basic targets (V, E, N, and NT) and 3 extended targets (2E and 3E) according to the calculations shown in the chart above. Traders can enable or disable each target in the settings panel.
🔶 USING EVERYTHING TOGETHER
Please DON'T do this. This is not how you use it
Now the real example:
Daily chart of Nasdaq 100 futures (NQ1!) with our Ichimoku analysis
Time, waves, and price theories go together as one:
First, we identify the current time cycles and wave structure.
Then we forecast the next cycle and possible key price levels.
We identify a Taito Suchi with both legs of exactly 41 candles on each I wave, both together forming a V wave, the last two I waves are part of a developing N wave, and the time cycle of the first one is 191 candles. We forecast this cycle into the future and get 22nd April as a key date, so in 6 trading days (as of this writing) the market would have completed another Taito Suchi pattern if a new wave and time cycle starts. As we have a developing N wave we can see the potential price targets, the price is actually between the NT and V targets. We have a bullish Kumo and the price is touching it, if this Kumo provides enough support for the price to go further, the market could reach N or E targets.
So we have identified the cycle and wave, our expectations are that the current cycle is another Taito Suchi and the current wave is an N wave, the first I wave went for 191 candles, and we expect the second and third I waves together to amount to 191 candles, so in theory the N wave would complete in the next 6 trading days making a swing high. If this is indeed the case, the price could reach the V target (it is almost there) or even the N target if the bulls have the necessary strength.
We do not predict the future, we can only aim to understand the current market conditions and have future expectations of when (time), how (wave), and where (price) the market will make the next turning point where one side of the market overcomes the other (bulls vs bears).
To generate this chart, we change the following settings from the default ones:
Swing length: 64
Show lines: disabled
Forecast pattern: TAITO SUCHI
Anchor forecast: 2
Show last time cycles: 5
I WAVE: enabled
N WAVE: disabled
Show last waves: 5

RSI Momentum Waves [Quantigenics]RSI Momentum Waves Indicator
The RSI Momentum Waves Indicator is your intuitive tool for visualizing market strength and trend persistence. It refines the classic RSI by smoothing the data with Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), which help clear out the noise to give you a more accurate picture of where the market’s heading. The parameters - RSI Period, Smoothing Period, Overbought, Oversold, Upper Neutral Zone, and Lower Neutral Zone - are all adjustable, so you can tailor the indicator to different market conditions or your trading style.
How It Works:
RSI Period (RsiPer): Adjusts how far back the RSI looks to calculate its value, affecting its sensitivity.
Smoothing Period (SmoothPer): Dictates how smooth the EMA lines are, balancing between sensitivity and noise reduction.
Overbought (OBLevel) / Oversold (OSLevel) Levels: Set the thresholds where the market might be too stretched in either direction and due for a reversal.
Neutral Zones (UpperNZ / LowerNZ): Define the areas where the market is considered neutral, and trend strength is less clear.
Trading Instructions:
Use the RSI Momentum Waves to gain insights into the market’s momentum and make informed decisions:
For Trend Identification: If the waves are consistently above the 50 line and climbing, the market may be bullish; if below and declining, bearish signals are suggested.
Overbought and Oversold Regions: Entering these areas might indicate a potential reversal. A peak and downturn in the overbought region can signal a sell, while a trough and upturn in the oversold region can indicate a buy.
Neutral Zone Caution: In the neutral zones, exercise caution and wait for a breakout in either direction for stronger signals.
Confirm with Other Analysis: Never rely solely on one indicator. Confirm the RSI Momentum Waves signals with other technical indicators or fundamental analysis for best practices.
Remember, the goal is to detect the rhythm of the market’s momentum and act accordingly. Happy trading!
MACD 4C with DivergenceMACD 4C Indicator with Divergence
This indicator, named MACD 4C, enhances the traditional MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) by providing a visually intuitive representation with four distinct colors for the histogram bars. It offers a clear interpretation of market momentum and potential trend reversals.
Key Features:
Customizable Parameters: Users can adjust the fast and slow moving average periods along with the signal smoothing parameter to tailor the indicator to their preferred trading style and market conditions.
Four-color Histogram: The histogram bars are color-coded for easy interpretation. Lime and green bars indicate increasing bullish momentum, while maroon and red bars signify increasing bearish momentum.
Bullish and Bearish Divergence Detection: The indicator identifies bullish and bearish divergences between the MACD histogram and price action. Bullish divergence occurs when the price makes a lower low while the MACD histogram forms a higher low, indicating potential bullish reversal. Conversely, bearish divergence occurs when the price makes a higher high while the MACD histogram forms a lower high, suggesting a potential bearish reversal.
How to Use:
Trend Confirmation: Monitor the color of the histogram bars. A series of green (or lime) bars suggests a strengthening bullish trend, while a series of red (or maroon) bars indicates a strengthening bearish trend.
Divergence Identification: Watch for divergences between the MACD histogram and price action. Bullish divergence may signal a potential bullish reversal, while bearish divergence may indicate a potential bearish reversal. These signals can be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to confirm trade entries and exits.
The MACD 4C indicator was developed by user vkno422 You can find the original author and their work on their TradingView profile: www.tradingview.com
ZigZag Multi [TradingFinder] Trend & Wave Lines - Structures🔵 Introduction
"Zigzag" is an indicator that forms based on price changes. Essentially, the function of this indicator is to connect consecutive and alternating High and Low pivots. This pattern assists in analyzing price changes and can also be used to identify classic patterns. "Zigzag" is an analytical tool that, by filtering partial price movements based on the specified period, can identify price waves across different time frames (short or long term).
🔵 Reason for Creation
The combination of "short term zigzag" and "long term zigzag" enhances accuracy and reduces analysis time. In a time frame, "long term zigzag" represents the main trend, while "short term zigzag" depicts short-term waves.
🔵 How to Use
After selecting the desired time frame and adding "zigzag" to the chart, begin utilization. Keep in mind to identify the main market trend from "long term zigzag" and the minor waves from "short term zigzag".
🟣 Important: Additionally, classic patterns such as HH, LH, LL, and HL can be recognized. All traders analyzing financial markets using classic patterns and Elliot Waves can benefit from the "zigzag" indicator to facilitate their analysis.
🔵 Settings
Short term zigzag : In this section, you can adjust settings such as time frame range, display mode, color, and line width of the zigzag lines.
Short term label : This section allows you to activate or deactivate the display of zigzag labels according to your needs. You can also customize their color and size.
Long term zigzag : Here, you can adjust settings for time frame range, display mode, color, and line width of zigzag lines.
Long term label : Similar to short term label settings.
The recommended time frame for "long term zigzag" is between 9 to 15, and for "short term zigzag" is between 3 to 5.
🟣 Important Notes :
Considering the different behaviors of financial markets and various time frames, it is recommended to experiment with different time frame settings when using "zigzag" to find the best settings for each symbol and time frame, thereby preventing potential errors.
🟣 Terminology Explanations :
"HH": When the price is higher than the previous peak (Higher High).
"HL": When the price is higher than the previous low (Higher Low).
"LH": When the price is lower than the previous peak (Lower High).
"LL": When the price is lower than the previous low (Lower Low).
Hosoda Waves ABCThe Hosoda Waves indicator was devised by Goichi Hosoda, the creator of the Ichimoku system, with the idea that previous highs and lows could determine future price ranges to which the market would react. Hosoda's projections include the NT, N, V, and E waves, derived from calculations based on both upward and downward ABC swings. The calculations for Hosoda's waves are as follows:
NT Wave = C + (C - A)
N Wave = B + (B - A)
V Wave = B + (B - C)
E Wave = C + (B - A)
This indicator visually represents the calculations by Hosoda. Additionally, Hosoda indicated time cycles: 9, 17, 26, 33, 42, 51, 65, 76, etc., which are not integrated into this indicator as they are not considered effective in contemporary times.
Once applied to the chart, the interactive Pine Script tool version 5 will prompt you to identify 3 points of "low-high-low" or "high-low-high," both for upward and downward movements. Once clicked, these price points can be moved. If you change the time frame or market instrument, the indicator must be removed because it remains tied to the prices where it was initially drawn.
Hosoda Waves ABCDEThe Hosoda Waves indicator was devised by Goichi Hosoda, who is also the creator of the Ichimoku system, with the idea that previous highs and lows could determine future price ranges that the market would react to.
Hosoda's projections are the NT, N, V, and E waves, which are derived from calculations based on both upward and downward ABC swings.
Hosoda's waves are derived from the following calculations:
NT Wave = C + (C - A)
N Wave = B + (B - A)
V Wave = B + (B - C)
E Wave = C + (B - A)
There are already scripts for the Hosoda waves, and my idea is to project an ABCDE swing simultaneously, meaning projecting three swings:
ABC, indicated with an A, resulting in NT-A, N-A, V-A, E-A.
BCD, indicated with a B, resulting in NT-B, N-B, V-B, E-B.
CDE, indicated with a C, resulting in NT-C, N-C, V-C, E-C.
Once the indicator is applied to the chart, the interactive Pine Script tool version 5 will prompt you to identify 5 points of "low-high-low-high-low" or "high-low-high-low-high," both for upward and downward movements and mixed.
Once clicked, these price points can be moved. If you change the time frame or market instrument, the indicator must be removed because it remains tied to the prices where it was initially drawn.
Relative Strength Index Wave Indicator [CC]The Relative Strength Index Wave Indicator was created by Constance Brown (Technical Analysis for the Trading Professional), and this is a unique indicator that uses the weighted close formula, but instead of using the typical price values, it uses the RSI calculated from the various prices. It then creates a rainbow by smoothing the weighted RSI with four different lengths. As far as the buy or sell signals with this indicator go, I did change things from the original source, so feel free to experiment and let me know if anything works better for you. I decided to do a variation of the original source and create buy and sell signals based on crossovers, but my version only uses the first and second smoothed RSI lines. You could also average all of the lines and buy when the average is rising and sell when it starts to fall. I have used my typical buy and sell signals to use darker colors for strong signals and lighter colors for normal signals. Because of the rainbow effect from the wave, the color changes will only appear for the bar itself when you enable that setting.
Let me know if there is any other script you would like to see me publish! I will have plenty more RSI scripts to publish in the next week. Let me know if you like this indicator series.
Harmonic Sine Waves model plot Hey,
Here is another tool that I created. I could not find anything similar.
This script is creating a sine wave, based on the given length, amplitude, horizontal vertical offset.
After this it plots also nearest harmonics to the base sine wave and draws it on the chart.
At the last step it sums up the value for base sine wave with its harmonics.
This is a great way to experience how 4 basic sine waves, when summed up, are creating more complex chart.
This shows that the 'chaotic' chart can be built on just a few most important factors.
You do not have to "know every single fact" about the asset to make a proper forecast.
You just need those most important.
It is crucial though, to offset the chart in a correct way, so it is in phase with the asset that we work on.
NET BSP NET BSP derived from Buying & Selling Pressure which is a volatility indicator that monitors average metrics of green and red candles separately.
We could navigate more confidently through market with projected market balance.
BSP allowed us to track and analyze the ongoing performance of bullish and bearish impulsive waves and their corrections.
Due to unintuitive way of measuring decline with SP going up, I decided to remake it into more intuitive version with better precision.
When we encounter the fall it's better to have declining values of tool to be able to cover it visually with ease.
One of the solutions was to create a sense of balance of Buying Pressure against Selling Pressure.
Since we are oriented by growth, it'd be more logical to summarize the market balance with BP - SP
Comparison:
When Buying and Selling Pressure are equal, NET BSP would be at 0.
NETBSP > 0 and NETBSP > NETBSP = 🟢
NETBSP > 0 and NETBSP < NETBSP = 🟡
NETBSP < 0 and NETBSP < NETBSP = 🔴
NETBSP < 0 and NETBSP > NETBSP = 🟡
Hence, we get visualized stages of uptrends and downtrends which allows to evaluate chances and estimations of upcoming counter-waves.
Also, it is worth to note that output clearly shows how one wave is derived from another in terms of sizing.
Feel free to adjust NET BSP arguments to adapt sensitivity to the timeframe you're working on.
Mark Structure ShdwMark Structure Show is building the market swing structure, minor and sub structure and marks all possible insignificant pivots
This indicator is the alternative version of Mark Structure indicator, I had to create another indicator in order to avoid programming limitation of TreadingView.
This version uses confirmation approach as confirming by body, it means every swing low/high is confirmed when the body (of newly creating swing low/high correspondingly) takes place and intercepts it. the same behaviour is with breaking structure its confirmed only by body.
From trading prospective with this kind of approach we can easily detect manipulations (caused by sweeps) and disregard those manipulation as elements which are breaking the structure. so its extremely useful for those who are trading smart money price actions and basing on swing structure POI
it supports:
- Marking all pivots with labels or join them continuously with trend lines.
- Marking minor and sub structured swings with labels or join them continuously with trend lines. Marking last actual CHoCH and BOS. Minor and substructure are structures inside swing structure and it can differ from the structure of lower timeframe
- Marking swings of swing structure with labels or join them continuously with trend lines.
- Changing bullish and bearish colors of each kind of structures
- Changing pivot labelings
- Changing colors
Remarks:
- Don't expect to have minor and sub structure in each swing waves, its totally fine when you don't have them at all
- Swing structure is the most significant structure and shows real price direction.
- The last swing is not able to be confirmed it tries to build 2 swings that most likely would be either substructure or SMS BOS
Adaptive Rebound Line Bands (ARL Bands)These bands consist of 4 ARLs (See: Adaptive Rebound Line ('ARL'/AR Line)) that help accurately spot price rebounds.
It is excellent for 15 minute scalping and price-action trading.
See notes in the picture above for more details.
Note: "Top Deviation" is the deviation of the top 'ARL', "High Deviation" is for the high 'ARL', etc.
RAS.V2 Strength Index OscillatorHeavily modified version of my previous "Relative Aggregate Strength Oscillator" -Added high/low lines, alma curves,, lrc bands, changed candle calculations + other small things. Replaces the standard RSI indicator with something a bit more insightful.
Credits to @wolneyyy - 'Mean Deviation Detector - Throw Out All Other Indicators ' And @algomojo - 'Responsive Coppock Curve'
And the default Relative Strength Index
The candles are the average of the MFI ,CCI ,MOM and RSI candles, they seemed similar enough in style to me so I created candles out of each and the took the sum of all the candle's OHLC values and divided by 4 to get an average, same as v1 but with some tweaks. Previous Peaks and Potholes visible with the blue horizontal lines which adjust when a new boundary is established. Toggle alma waves or smalrc curves or both to your liking. This indicator is great for calling out peaks and troughs in realtime, although is best when combined with other trusted indicators to get a consensus.
TL WavesI created this indicator inspired by the miyuki waves indicator by eto_miyuki. In my indicator we have 17 types of moving averages which can be selected in the settings.
It is a trend indicator, the base of the wave is a moving average and 4 Average True Range (ATR) Bands derived from the baseline are formed.
There are also 3 moving averages in a guppy style, these 3 moving averages can also be configured.
The moving average options are:
SMA ---> Simple
WMA ---> Weighted
VWMA ---> Volume Weighted
EMA ---> Exponential
DEMA ---> Double EMA
ALMA ---> Arnaud Legoux
HMA ---> Hull MA
SMMA ---> Smoothed
LSMA ---> Least Squares
KAMA ---> Kaufman Adaptive
TEMA ---> Triple EMA
ZLEMA ---> Zero Lag
FRAMA ---> Fractal Adaptive
VIDYA ---> Variable Index Dynamic Average
JMA ---> Jurik Moving Average
T3 ---> Tillson
TRIMA ---> Triangular
All settings are available for changing inputs.
Guppy WavesA lightweight version of the popular "Moving Average Ribbon" or "Guppy" indicators where the visuals are plotted as "waves" rather than moving average lines. As is customary for my indicators, nearly everything about it is user selectable.
Visual Features:
User Customizable Colors
RSI-Based Rainbow Color Scheme
Simple Offset for adjusting transparency
Create great-looking charts very easily
Moving Average Options:
Running (SMoothed) Moving Average (RMA or SMMA ) - very slow/smooth
Simple Moving Average ( SMA )
Exponential Moving Average ( EMA )
Weighted Moving Average ( WMA )
Volume-Weighted Moving Average ( VWMA )
Triple EMA ( TEMA ) - very fast
Exponential Hull Moving Average (EHMA) - Hull with Smoothing (Slower than Hull)
Least Squares Moving Average ( LSMA ) - Simple Linear Regression
Arnaud Legoux Moving Average ( ALMA ) - Adjustable, set offset=1 to be current, offset=0.85 for good smoothing
Hull Moving Average ( HMA ) - very fast
Tillson T3 - very smooth
Donchian Moving Average - plots the average of (lowest, highest) for a given period length
The user can change the source, period, and type of moving average used for every single line on the chart.
Squeeze M + ADX + TTM (Trading Latino & John Carter) by [Rolgui]About this indicator:
This indicator aims to combine two good performing strategies, which can be used separately or together, mainly for investment positions, although it can also be used for intraday trading.
Strategy 1) Squeeze Oscillator and Average Directional Index:
This strategy is taught by Jaime Aibsai, which determines market entries based on reading the direction of the price movement (Directionality of the Oscillator) along with the strength of the Oscillator (Slope of the ADX).
Both tools are configured according to Jaime Abisai's strategy, by default (note that point 23 of the ADX is represented by point 0 on the panel, to make reading easier, its interpretation is not affected). Anyway you can adjust the input data according to your interest.
*You can see this setting in the first panel.
Strategy 2) Squeeze Momentum and Trade The Market Waves:
This strategy can be consulted either in John F. Carter's books or on his website.
This market reading is based on Price Volatility (Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels interaction) and its Trend (Exponential Moving Averages), showing entries at times when price volatility is low and taking filtering active trend using T.T.M. Waves.
To configure the indicator in the same way that Carter does, it would be enough to turn off the ADX, turn on the Squeeze Momentum signals along with the T.T.M. Waves, and importantly, change the Linear Momentum value to 12 (this configuration can be found in his book).
*You can see this setting in the second panel.
Why this indicator?
I've added and removed the above flags as I needed to query them (which became tedious for me). The main objective of having merged them into one is to make their reading more agile and comfortable and thus improve the decision-making capacity of the trader who wishes to use them.
Credits and Acknowledgments:
I would like to give credits to other authors, for the sections of code that I have used to make this technical indicator. Thanks to @LazyBear, @matetaronna, @jombie and @joren for contributing to the community and keeping their code open. It is priceless!
Feel free to combine and practice your trading with both strategies, personally, they improved my profitability and this is why I recommend researching more about them. I've been using it for crypto investing, let me know if it's worth for you on stock market!
If you have any questions or suggestions you can leave it in the comments!

SARWThis indicator aims to indicate the correlation between two assets(Current and Base), it does NOT show entries or help your chart analysis directly.
The main features of this Correlation indicator is :
Correlation type : Direct Correlation | Inverse Correlation | No Correlation
Correlation Percentage : as its name, it calculate the Correlation Percentage between Current and base assets if exist
How to use: Chose the base asset (default: bitcoin) and open any other chart to be the other -Current- asset
inputs:
Max Lookback length : how many candles will be included in the scan.
Swing intensity : How many candle should be counted to confirm a Swing, If you are confused leave it as its default.
Base Asset : The base asset to calculate the current asset correlation with.
Important Notes:
As I promised, the previous correlation indicator used each candle alone, while this one uses waves and swings.
The Current asset has more power over the base, because it compares the Base to current, but not the opposite((E.g. if you want to check if some coin have correlation with bitcoin, it's better to use bitcoin and put the other coin name in the input field)).
For any notes on the indicator to be edited, or for another indicator ideas please comment.
ZigZag WavesHello All,
I am here with a new idea and script, " Zigzag Waves ". This indicator creates 3 Zigzags with different lengths, keeps the lengths of each zigzag wave and calculates/draws average waves for each zigzag. optionally it can reset the wave when zigzag direction changes and new highest/lowest found. And optionally it draws Exponential Moving Average(EMA) of the sum of waves. This idea is very new and at the moment there is no optimization for the Zigzag Periods. Maybe we altogether can improve the idea and find the best zigzag periods for different symbols and time frames.
Using the options You can play with the periods, add/remove EMA, set its color and reset the waves on new Highest/Lowest. As far as I see resetting the waves on new Highest/Lowest may bring better results.
if we enable "Reset the waves on new Highest/Lowest":
Using different periods and EMA length:
P.S. if you have ideas to improve this script, drop a comment under the script please.
Enjoy!
Hosoda N Wave and TPs {fmz}This script allows you to establish in a graphic and interactive way which are the N, NT, V and E targets for a Hosoda N wave.
Apply the indicator to the chart.
The interactive tool of Pine script version 5 will ask you to identify three points of "minimum-maximum-higher minimum" that form a bullish N wave of Hosoda (refer to the specific documentation for Hosoda N wave), or on the contrary three points "maximum-minimum-lower maximum" for a bearish N wave.
Once drawn, the price points can be moved.
When changing the market instrument, the indicator must be removed because it remains linked to the prices where it was first drawn.
Spread DifferentialThe Spread Differential tries to measure the speed of the market in any given direction. The histogram plots levels above or below zero in a sequence of Humps and Waves. Humps are repetitions of the previous trend before dropping to or near 0 whilst Waves are similar to Humps but the histogram must drop to or near 0 prior to forming another wave. You might notice that in no trend does the indicator ever form more than 2 waves. The indicator should be used in conjunction with the MA's selected in the panel to identify possible points of failure.
