ICT Turtle Soup (Liquidity Reversal)ICT Turtle Soup — Liquidity Reversal Detection
Classic Liquidity Trap Reversal Strategy for Smart Money Traders
This indicator implements the ICT Turtle Soup concept — a classic liquidity-based reversal pattern — which occurs when price runs above or below a recent swing level to grab liquidity, then sharply reverses. This pattern is commonly used in Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and Inner Circle Trader (ICT) strategies to anticipate false breakouts and high-probability reversals.
🔍 What This Script Does:
Identifies Swing Highs & Lows
Detects recent swing highs and lows using a customizable lookback period.
Tracks Liquidity Grabs
A bearish Turtle Soup setup is triggered when price breaks above a recent swing high but closes back below it.
A bullish Turtle Soup setup is triggered when price breaks below a recent swing low but closes back above it.
These conditions often signal liquidity traps, where price sweeps resting orders before reversing.
Plots Signals Directly on the Chart
Turtle Soup setups are marked with 🐢🔻 (bearish) and 🐢🔺 (bullish) labels.
Optional full-text labels can also be displayed for clarity and journaling.
Includes Alert Conditions
Alerts can be enabled to notify you of bullish or bearish Turtle Soup reversals in real-time.
⚙️ Customization Features:
Adjustable swing lookback period
Enable/disable Turtle Soup labels
Set label font size
Choose your preferred bullish/bearish signal colors
💡 How to Use:
Add this script to your chart (ideally on intraday timeframes such as 5m–15m).
Wait for a Turtle Soup signal near a key swing high/low or liquidity zone.
Combine with other confirmation tools (e.g., FVGs, Order Blocks, OTE) for stronger setups.
Use alerts to stay ahead of fast-moving reversals.
🧠 Why It Works:
Turtle Soup setups are rooted in liquidity theory — they exploit the market’s tendency to sweep obvious swing levels before reversing. These moves often trap retail traders and mark the beginning of Smart Money entries.

🤔 "What's with the indicator mashup/How do these components work together? 🤔
The 7-Channel Trend Meter is designed as an original and useful tool that integrates multiple indicators to enhance trading decisions, rather than merely combining existing tools without logical coherence. This strategic mashup creates a comprehensive analysis framework that offers deeper insights into market conditions by capitalizing on each component's unique strengths. The careful integration of seven indicators creates a unified system that eliminates conflicting signals and enhances the decision-making process. Rather than simply merging indicators for the sake of it, the 7-Channel Trend Meter is designed to streamline trading strategies, making it a practical tool for traders across various markets. By leveraging the combined strengths of these indicators, traders can act with greater confidence, backed by comprehensive data rather than fragmented insights. Here’s how they synergistically work together:
Average Directional Index (ADX) and Directional Movement Index (DMI): The reason for this mashup is because ADX indicates the strength of the prevailing trend, while the DMI pinpoints its direction. Together, they equip traders with a dual framework that not only identifies whether to engage with a trend but also quantifies its strength, allowing for more decisive trading strategies.
EMA Cross: The reason for this addition to the mashup is because this tool signals potential trend reversals by identifying moving average crossovers. When combined with the ADX and DMI, traders can better differentiate between genuine trend shifts and market noise, leading to more accurate entries.
Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Stochastic Oscillator: The reason for this mashup is because by using both momentum indicators, traders gain a multifaceted view of market dynamics. The RSI assesses overbought or oversold conditions, while the Stochastic Oscillator confirms momentum shifts. When both agree with the trend signals from the DMI, it enhances the reliability of reversal or continuation strategies.
Supertrend: The reason for this addition to the mashup is because as a trailing stop based on market volatility, the Supertrend indicator works hand-in-hand with the ADX’s strength assessment, allowing traders to ride strong trends while managing risk. This cohesion prevents premature exits during minor pullbacks.
Volume Delta: The reason for this addition to the mashup is because integrating volume analysis helps validate signals from the price action indicators. Significant volume behind a price movement reinforces the likelihood of its continuation, ensuring that traders can act on well-supported signals.
🔍 How it does what it says it does 🔍
While the exact calculations remain proprietary, the following outlines how the components synergistically work to aid traders in making informed decisions:
Market Strength Assessment: Average Directional Index (ADX)
This component is used as confirmation by measuring the strength of the market trend on a scale from 0 to 100. A reading above 20 generally indicates a strong trend, while readings below 20 suggest sideways movement. The Trend Meter flags strong trends, effectively helping traders identify optimal conditions for entering positions.
Trend Direction Confirmation: Directional Movement Index (DMI)
This component is used as confirmation by distinguishing between bullish and bearish trends by evaluating price movements. This combination allows traders to confirm not only if a trend exists but also its direction, informing whether to buy or sell.
Trend Reversal Detection: Exponential Moving Average (EMA) Cross
This component is used as confirmation by calculating two EMAs (one shorter and one longer) to identify potential reversal points. When the shorter EMA crosses above the longer EMA, it signals a bullish reversal, and vice versa for bearish reversals. This helps traders pinpoint optimal entry or exit points.
Momentum Analysis: Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Stochastic Oscillator
These components are used as confirmation by providing insights into momentum. The RSI assesses the speed and change of price movements, indicating overbought or oversold conditions. The Stochastic Oscillator compares a particular closing price to a range of prices over a specified period. This helps identify whether momentum is slowing or speeding up, offering a clear view of potential reversal points. When both the RSI and Stochastic Oscillator converge on signals, it increases the reliability of those signals in trading decisions.
Volatility-Based Trend Following: Supertrend
This component is used as confirmation by utilizing Average True Range (ATR) calculations to help traders stay in momentum-driven trades by providing dynamic support and resistance levels that adapt to volatility. This enables better risk management while allowing traders to capture stronger trends.
Volume Confirmation: Volume Delta
This component is used as confirmation by analyzing buying and selling pressure by measuring the difference between buy and sell volumes, offering critical insights into market sentiment. Significant volume behind a price movement increases confidence in the sustainability of that move.
🧠 Pro Tip:
When all 7 bars line up in green or red, it’s time to take action: load up for a confirmed move or sit back and wait for market confirmation. Let the Trend Meter guide your strategy with precision.
Conclusion:
Integrate the 7-Channel Trend Meter as useful confirmation for your TradingView strategy and stop trading like the average retail trader. This tool eliminates the noise and helps you stay focused on high-confidence trades.
Daily ATR Levels - Vishal SubandhThe following script visualizes the ATR High and ATR Low levels based on the previous day’s closing price. The Average True Range (ATR) indicates how much a stock is likely to move—upward or downward—on a given day, providing insight into its intraday volatility. Additionally, the script calculates and displays the daily ATR as a percentage, with specific levels marked at 60% and 80%.
These percentage levels are plotted for both the high and low ranges, offering a framework to analyze potential price movements. In the context of a strong trend, prices often extend to the 80% or even 100% ATR level before showing signs of reversal. Such behavior is observed during pronounced uptrends or downtrends. Conversely, during weaker trends, price reversals may occur at the 60% ATR levels.
It is recommended to use this analysis in conjunction with other tools, such as support and resistance levels or demand and supply zones, for a more comprehensive approach to trading.
Z-Score Candles with ReversalsIn the process of releasing some of my Z-Score based indicators. This is the Z-Score Candle indicator.
What it does:
This converts the current candles into a z-score based candle over a 14 period lookback (adjustable but recommended to leave at 14).
It plots out the overbought/oversold areas using colours and will lookback over a user defined period of time to identify previous areas of bullish and bearish reversals.
Why Z-Score Candles?
Before we get into how to use it, I think its important to discuss why converting candles to a Z-Score is advantageous.
When we convert candlesticks to Z-Score, we have the ability to view areas of natural mathematical support and resistance (I want to clarify, when I saw mathematical support and resistance, it is kind of a misnomer, it is not the same as technical support and resistance. Its a measure of the natural tendency of things to revert to their mean and not deviate to extreme poles of their mean for prolonged period of time, I use the term mathematical support and resistance as it is something most traders are familiar with and operates similarly).
This is particularly helpful during trends. For example, if we take a look at the following BA chart:
In the chart above, you can see that despite BA not being on technical support (that red line), the indicator identified math support (the support was identified by the indicator looking at BA's natural deviations from its mean and seeing that, at that particular point in time, BA had deviated to an area that traditionally leads to reversals to the upside).
If we look at another example:
We can see in the chart above that, despite BA making a new high on the day and "breaking out" of previous resistance, BA was at math resistance being 3.0 Standard Deviations from its trading mean at the time. Thus, necessitating the pullback you see in the chart.
How to use it:
The indicator can be used similar to RSI and Stochastics or any other oscillator based indicator. The difference is, you can actually see the price action in terms of its relationship to its mean. What the means, is the indicator displays the current price action in terms of the ticker's relationship to its current mean and average. This permits us to see areas of rejection and support in relation to its current distance from neutrality. We can also see the various positions of each of the ticker's values from the mean. For example, we can see where the open is in relation to the average, the high and the low vs simply looking at a single variable (usually the close price).
The indicator will also highlight areas where the ticker has deviated to extreme ends of its mean (defined at a Z-Score of +/- 3.0). The picture below is an example of a bearish extreme:
And a bullish extreme:
You can see in both cases a reversal resulted almost immediately.
Inputs:
In the chart above, you can see the 3 main input sections.
Z-Score Lookback: This determines the lookback length for the Z-Score. The recommendation is to leave at 14, especially if you are a day trader.
SMA Inputs: The SMA (The white line) can be toggled off and on. You can also change the source to the High, Low, Close and Open Z-Score. You can adjust the lookback length of the SMA to your liking to assess trends. It does not need to be the same input as the Z-Score.
Reversal Inputs: The reversal inputs determines the length of lookback for the indicator to determine the most extreme bearish and bullish deviation from its mean. It is defaulted at 75 but can be adjusted based on preference. For more frequent signals, you can reduce the lookback length but be prepared for false signals in that case. You can also toggle off the reversal labels if you do not want them.
Concluding remarks:
And that is the Z-Score Candle indicator in a nutshell. Pretty self explanatory otherwise. It is more tailored to day traders. It is not a tool I would necessarily use for longer-term outlooks. I would use a simple Z-Score based indicator for that. But for active day trading, this is very helpful. That said, it can be used to look at longer term outlooks as well, but there are more powerful Z-Score based indicators for that (you can check out my own Z-Score indicator or my recently released Z-Score Probability Indicator which is more tailored for bigger picture outlooks).

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Autocorrelation ReversalsLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introduced Autocorrelation Reversals in his "Cycle Analytics for Traders" chapter 8 on 2013.
Function
One of the distinctive characteristics of autocorrelation is that the autocorrelation shifts from yelow to red or from red to yellow at all values of lag at the cyclic reversals of the price. Therefore, all we need do to determine these reversals is to sum the bar-to-bar differences of the autocorrelation function across all values of lag. When the sum is large a turning point has been identified.
The indicated reversals are very sensitive to the smoothing of the price data. Therefore, the LPLength is made available as an indicator input to decrease or increase the number of indicated reversals as desired. The AvgLength parameter is also made available as an indicator because this averaging also impacts the number of indicated reversals. Care should be taken when increasing the value of this input because the lag of the indicator increases in direct proportion to the increase of the value of the AvgLength. Typical delay of the indicator will be about three bars when the AvgLength parameter is set to a value of 3. The HPLength parameter is also made available as an input for complete flexibility of the indicator. However, changing its value has a relatively minor impact on the indicated reversals.

Uptrick: Fusion Trend Reversion SystemOverview
The Uptrick: Fusion Trend Reversion System is a multi-layered indicator designed to identify potential price reversals during intraday movement while keeping traders informed of the dominant short-term trend. It blends a composite fair value model with deviation logic and a refined momentum filter using the Relative Strength Index (RSI). This tool was created with scalpers and short-term traders in mind and is especially effective on lower timeframes such as 1-minute, 5-minute, and 15-minute charts where price dislocations and quick momentum shifts are frequent.
Introduction
This indicator is built around the fusion of two classic concepts in technical trading: identifying trend direction and spotting potential reversion points. These are often handled separately, but this system merges them into one process. It starts by computing a fair value price using five moving averages, each with its own mathematical structure and strengths. These include the exponential moving average (EMA), which gives more weight to recent data; the simple moving average (SMA), which gives equal weight to all periods; the weighted moving average (WMA), which progressively increases weight with recency; the Arnaud Legoux moving average (ALMA), known for smoothing without lag; and the volume-weighted average price (VWAP), which factors in volume at each price level.
All five are averaged into a single value — the raw fusion line. This fusion acts as a dynamically balanced centerline that adapts to price conditions with both smoothing and responsiveness. Two additional exponential moving averages are applied to the raw fusion line. One is slower, giving a stable trend reference, and the other is faster, used to define momentum and cloud behavior. These two lines — the fusion slow and fusion fast — form the backbone of trend and signal logic.
Purpose
This system is meant for traders who want to trade reversals without losing sight of the underlying directional bias. Many reversal indicators fail because they act too early or signal too frequently in choppy markets. This script filters out noise through two conditions: price deviation and RSI confirmation. Reversion trades are considered only when the price moves a significant distance from fair value and RSI suggests a legitimate shift in momentum. That filtering process gives the trader a cleaner, higher-quality signal and reduces false entries.
The indicator also visually supports the trader through colored bars, up/down labels, and a filled cloud between the fast and slow fusion lines. These features make the market context immediately visible: whether the trend is up or down, whether a reversal just occurred, and whether price is currently in a high-risk reversion zone.
Originality and Uniqueness
What makes this script different from most reversal systems is the way it combines layers of logic — not just to detect signals, but to qualify and structure them. Rather than relying on a single MA or a raw RSI level, it uses a five-MA fusion to create a baseline fair value that incorporates speed, stability, and volume-awareness.
On top of that, the system introduces a dual-smoothing mechanism. It doesn’t just smooth price once — it creates two layers: one to follow the general trend and another to track faster deviations. This structure lets the script distinguish between continuation moves and possible turning points more effectively than a single-line or single-metric system.
It also uses RSI in a more refined way. Instead of just checking if RSI is overbought or oversold, the script smooths RSI and requires directional confirmation. Beyond that, it includes signal memory. Once a signal is generated, a new one will not appear unless the RSI becomes even more extreme and curls back again. This memory-based gating reduces signal clutter and prevents repetition, a rare feature in similar scripts.
Why these indicators were merged
Each moving average in the fusion serves a specific role. EMA reacts quickly to recent price changes and is often favored in fast-trading strategies. SMA acts as a long-term filter and smooths erratic behavior. WMA blends responsiveness with smoothing in a more balanced way. ALMA focuses on minimizing lag without losing detail, which is helpful in fast markets. VWAP anchors price to real trade volume, giving a sense of where actual positioning is happening.
By combining all five, the script creates a fair value model that doesn’t lean too heavily on one logic type. This fusion is then smoothed into two separate EMAs: one slower (trend layer), one faster (signal layer). The difference between these forms the basis of the trend cloud, which can be toggled on or off visually.
RSI is then used to confirm whether price is reversing with enough force to warrant a trade. The RSI is calculated over a 14-period window and smoothed with a 7-period EMA. The reason for smoothing RSI is to cut down on noise and avoid reacting to short, insignificant spikes. A signal is only considered if price is stretched away from the trend line and the smoothed RSI is in a reversal state — below 30 and rising for bullish setups, above 70 and falling for bearish ones.
Calculations
The script follows this structure:
Calculate EMA, SMA, WMA, ALMA, and VWAP using the same base length
Average the five values to form the raw fusion line
Smooth the raw fusion line with an EMA using sens1 to create the fusion slow line
Smooth the raw fusion line with another EMA using sens2 to create the fusion fast line
If fusion slow is rising and price is above it, trend is bullish
If fusion slow is falling and price is below it, trend is bearish
Calculate RSI over 14 periods
Smooth RSI using a 7-period EMA
Determine deviation as the absolute difference between current price and fusion slow
A raw signal is flagged if deviation exceeds the threshold
A raw signal is flagged if RSI EMA is under 30 and rising (bullish setup)
A raw signal is flagged if RSI EMA is over 70 and falling (bearish setup)
A final signal is confirmed for a bullish setup if RSI EMA is lower than the last bullish signal’s RSI
A final signal is confirmed for a bearish setup if RSI EMA is higher than the last bearish signal’s RSI
Reset the bullish RSI memory if RSI EMA rises above 30
Reset the bearish RSI memory if RSI EMA falls below 70
Store last signal direction and use it for optional bar coloring
Draw the trend cloud between fusion fast and fusion slow using fill()
Show signal labels only if showSignals is enabled
Bar and candle colors reflect either trend slope or last signal direction depending on mode selected
How it works
Once the script is loaded, it builds a fusion line by averaging five different types of moving averages. That line is smoothed twice into a fast and slow version. These two fusion lines form the structure for identifying trend direction and signal areas.
Trend bias is defined by the slope of the slow line. If the slow line is rising and price is above it, the market is considered bullish. If the slow line is falling and price is below it, it’s considered bearish.
Meanwhile, the script monitors how far price has moved from that slow line. If price is stretched beyond a certain distance (set by the threshold), and RSI confirms that momentum is reversing, a raw reversion signal is created. But the script only allows that signal to show if RSI has moved further into oversold or overbought territory than it did at the last signal. This blocks repetitive, weak entries. The memory is cleared only if RSI exits the zone — above 30 for bullish, below 70 for bearish.
Once a signal is accepted, a label is drawn. If the signal toggle is off, no label will be shown regardless of conditions. Bar colors are controlled separately — you can color them based on trend slope or last signal, depending on your selected mode.
Inputs
You can adjust the following settings:
MA Length: Sets the period for all moving averages used in the fusion.
Show Reversion Signals: Turns on the plotting of “Up” and “Down” labels when a reversal is confirmed.
Bar Coloring: Enables or disables colored bars based on trend or signal direction.
Show Trend Cloud: Fills the space between the fusion fast and slow lines to reflect trend bias.
Bar Color Mode: Lets you choose whether bars follow trend logic or last signal direction.
Sens 1: Smoothing speed for the slow fusion line — higher values = slower trend.
Sens 2: Smoothing speed for the fast line — lower values = faster signal response.
Deviation Threshold: Minimum distance price must move from fair value to trigger a signal check.
Features
This indicator offers:
A composite fair value model using five moving average types.
Dual smoothing system with user-defined sensitivity.
Slope-based trend definition tied to price position.
Deviation-triggered signal logic filtered by RSI reversal.
RSI memory system that blocks repetitive signals and resets only when RSI exits overbought or oversold zones.
Real-time tracking of the last signal’s direction for optional bar coloring.
Up/Down labels at signal points, visible only when enabled.
Optional trend cloud between fusion layers, visualizing current market bias.
Full user control over smoothing, threshold, color modes, and visibility.
Conclusion
The Fusion Trend-Reversion System is a tool for short-term traders looking to fade price extremes without ignoring trend bias. It calculates fair value using five diverse moving averages, smooths this into two dynamic layers, and applies strict reversal logic based on RSI deviation and momentum strength. Signals are triggered only when price is stretched and momentum confirms it with increasingly strong behavior. This combination makes the tool suitable for scalping, intraday entries, and fast market environments where precision matters.

[Stop!Loss] ADR Signal ADR Signal - a technical indicator located in a separate window, which displays by default the 80%-level , as well as the 100%-level of the average daily range (ADR) for the last 10 days and compares it with the current intraday range. The indicator helps not only with the use of a mathematical-statistical method to identify a potential reversal at the moment during intraday trading, but can also serves as an effective assistant in risk management.
👉 Basic mechanics of the indicator
Firstly, this indicator tracks the performance of the standard ATR indicator on the daily chart, in other words, ADR (Average Daily Range).
Important ❗️The ATR (Average True Range) indicator was created by J. Welles Wilder Jr. He first introduced ATR in his book "New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems", published in 1978. Wilder developed this indicator to measure market volatility to help traders estimate the range of price movements. This indicator is built into TradingView, more details can be found by link: www.tradingview.com
Like ATR , ADR calculates the average true range for a specified period. In this case, the distance in points from the maximum of each day to its minimum is calculated, after which the arithmetic mean is calculated - this is ADR .
👉 Visualization
ADR Signal is located in a separate window on the chart and has 3 levels:
1) "ADR level" (green line) - the same parameter, the calculations of which are briefly described above. There is 100%-level of ATR on the daily chart (ADR).
2) "Current level" (red line) - this is the current price passage within the day, calculated in points. At the start of a new day, this parameter is reset. Therefore, in the indicator window, this line has sharp drops at the start of a new trading day: "A new trading day - the instrument's power reserve is renewed again".
3) "Signal level" (blue line) - this is an individually customized value that demonstrates a certain part of the ADR parameter.
👉 Inputs
1) - is responsible for the ATR indicator period, the value of which will always be calculated on the daily chart. The default value is "10", that is, ATR is calculated for the last 10 days (not including the current one).
2) - signal level (in %). The default value is "0.8", that is, 80%-level of the ADR parameter (set earlier) is calculated.
👉 Style
1) - by default, this level is colored "blue".
2) - by default, this level is colored "red".
3) - by default, this level is colored "green".
👉 How to use this indicator
Important❗️ The two methods of the use of the ADR Signal indicator described below will be most effective when trading intraday (which is highlighted quite well below), so it is more logical to use the indicator information on time periods H1 and below.
1) Identifying potential reversals during intraday trading:
The ADR Signal indicator can be used as a potential individual reversal strategy.
Important ❗️It should be noted that using it in it without additional confirming analysis tools will be a rather aggressive trading approach. Therefore, it is best to support the entry point in particular with other methods.
In this case, the crossing of the red line (the number of points passed within the current day, that is, from the minimum of the current day to its maximum) and the blue line (color of the Signal level based on the default settings), indicates that the trading instrument has passed 80% (based on the default settings for the "Signal level") of its average distance from the maximum to the minimum over the past 10 days (based on the default settings for the "ADR Length"). Such a situation in the context of the mathematical-statistical approach indicates a probable reversal, since the "power reserve" of this instrument is mostly exhausted, so one can expect with a higher probability, at least, a price stop and possibly a reversal. In case of crossing of the red line and the green one (ADR level), it says again that based on the mathematical-statistical approach, this trading instrument has completely exhausted its intraday "power reserve". In this situation, a stop or reversal of the price will be even more likely.
Of course, using the "Signal level" parameter, one can filter out even more reliable situations for potential price reversals within a day, namely, by specifying, for example, 1.5 in the field of this parameter. Under such conditions, in the case of crossing the red and blue lines (based on the default style settings), to say that the trading instrument has passed 150% of its average distance over the last 10 days (based on the default style settings "ADR length"). In this case, the probability of a stop or reversal of the price increases even more.
2) Use in risk management:
In terms of risk management, this indicator is more applicable to open trades. For example, if one had an open Buy-position (especially if it is an intraday trade) and the price has raised significantly during the day, then the crossing of the red line with the blue line , and especially the red line with the green line , may indicate that the price will most likely stop growing, since the "power reserve" is almost or completely exhausted for this instrument within the current day. In this case, one can, at a minimum, move the trade to breakeven or even partially fix the profit.

Dynamic Sentiment RSI [UAlgo]The Dynamic Sentiment RSI is a technical analysis tool that combines the classic RSI (Relative Strength Index) concept with dynamic sentiment analysis, offering traders enhanced insights into market conditions. Unlike the traditional RSI, this indicator integrates volume weighting, sentiment factors, and smoothing features to provide a more nuanced view of momentum and potential market reversals. It is designed to assist traders in detecting overbought/oversold conditions, momentum shifts, and to generate potential buy or sell signals using crossover and crossunder techniques. By dynamically adjusting based on sentiment and volume factors, this RSI offers better adaptability to varying market conditions, making it suitable for different trading styles and timeframes.
This tool is particularly helpful for traders who wish to explore not only price movement but also the underlying market sentiment, offering a more comprehensive approach to momentum analysis. The sentiment factor amplifies the RSI's sensitivity to price shifts, making it easier to detect early signals of market reversals or the continuation of a trend.
🔶 Key Features
Dynamic Sentiment Calculation: The indicator incorporates a "Sentiment Factor" that adjusts the RSI length dynamically based on a multiplier, helping traders better understand market sentiment at different time intervals.
Volume Weighting: When enabled, the RSI calculations are weighted by volume, allowing traders to give more importance to price movements with higher trading volume, which may provide more accurate signals.
Smoothing Feature: A customizable smoothing period is applied to the RSI to help filter out noise and make the signal smoother. This feature is particularly useful for traders who prefer to focus on long-term trends while minimizing false signals.
Step Size Customization: A "Step Size" input allows users to round the sentiment RSI to predefined intervals, making the results easier to interpret and act upon. This feature allows you to focus on significant sentiment changes and ignore minor fluctuations.
Crossover/Crossunder Alerts: The indicator includes crossover and crossunder signals on the zero-line, helping traders identify potential buy and sell opportunities as the smoothed RSI crosses these levels.
The indicator offers a clear visual display with multiple color-coded lines and areas:
Sentiment RSI: Plotted as an area chart, color-coded based on sentiment strength.
Raw RSI: A purple line representing the raw adjusted RSI.
Smoothed RSI: A dynamic line, color-coded aqua or orange based on its position relative to the zero line.
Buy/Sell Signals: Triangle shapes are plotted at crossovers and crossunders, providing clear entry and exit points.
🔶 Interpreting the Indicator
Sentiment RSI
-This line represents the sentiment-adjusted RSI, where the higher the value, the stronger the bullish sentiment, and the lower the value, the stronger the bearish sentiment. It is rounded to step intervals, making it easier to detect significant shifts in sentiment.
- A positive sentiment RSI (above 0) suggests bullish market conditions, while a negative sentiment RSI (below 0) suggests bearish conditions.
Smoothed RSI
The smoothed RSI helps reduce noise and shows the trend more clearly.
Crossovers of the zero line are significant:
- Crossover above zero: Indicates that bullish momentum is building, potentially signaling a buying opportunity.
- Crossunder below zero: Signals a shift towards bearish momentum, potentially indicating a sell signal.
Traders should look for these crossovers in conjunction with other signals for more accurate entry/exit points.
Raw RSI (Adjusted)
The raw adjusted RSI offers a less smoothed, more responsive version of the RSI. While it may be noisier, it provides early signals of market reversals and trends.
Crossover/Crossunder Signals
- When the smoothed RSI crosses above the zero line, a "Signal Up" triangle appears, indicating a potential buying opportunity.
- When the smoothed RSI crosses below the zero line, a "Signal Down" triangle appears, signaling a potential sell opportunity.
These signals help traders time their entries and exits by identifying momentum shifts.
Volume Weighting (Optional)
- If volume weighting is enabled, the RSI will give more weight to periods of higher trading volume, making the signals more reliable when the market is highly active.
Strong Up/Down Levels (40/-40)
- These dotted lines represent extreme sentiment levels. When the sentiment RSI reaches 40 or -40, the market may be nearing an overbought or oversold condition, respectively. This could be a signal for traders to prepare for potential reversals or shifts in momentum.
By combining the various components of this indicator, traders can gain a comprehensive view of market sentiment and price action, helping them make more informed trading decisions. The combination of sentiment factors, volume weighting, and smoothing makes this indicator highly flexible and suitable for a variety of trading strategies.

Candle Based Trend Reversal (Multi-Timeframe)Candle-Based Trend Reversal (Multi-Timeframe)
Description:
This indicator is designed to help traders identify potential trend reversals by analyzing candle patterns across multiple timeframes. The script uses two sets of conditions to determine bullish and bearish trends:
1. Short-Term Lookback: A shorter lookback period is used to detect initial signs of a trend reversal. The indicator checks for a specific number of bullish or bearish candles within this period. The lookback period for this set can be adjusted according to your preferences.
2. Long-Term Lookback: A longer lookback period is used to confirm the strength of the trend reversal. This additional check ensures that the trend change is significant and not just a short-term fluctuation. The lookback period for this set is also customizable to fit different trading strategies.
When both conditions are met, the script will color the candles accordingly and display a label on the chart to indicate a potential trend reversal. The colors and symbols for bullish and bearish signals are fully customizable in the settings.
How It Works:
* The script examines the closing prices of candles within the specified lookback periods.
* If the conditions for both lookback periods are met, it triggers a signal by changing the color of the candles and displaying a label.
* Once a signal is triggered, the trend (bullish or bearish) will remain active until a new opposing signal is generated.
* The lookback periods for both the short-term and long-term conditions can be modified, allowing you to tailor the indicator to different market conditions and timeframes.
* This helps traders visually identify when a trend reversal might be occurring based on recent price action.
Usage:
* This indicator is particularly effective on monthly, weekly, daily, and hourly charts.
* Simply switch the timeframe, and the indicator will do the rest.
* Look for colored candles and labels to spot potential reversal points.
* The last signal (bullish or bearish) will stay in effect until a contrary signal is given, allowing you to maintain a clear view of the prevailing trend.
* Customize the lookback periods to match your trading style and market conditions.
* This indicator is most effective when used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools.
Vwap Z-Score with Signals [UAlgo]The "VWAP Z-Score with Signals " is a technical analysis tool designed to help traders identify potential buy and sell signals based on the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) and its Z-Score. This indicator calculates the VWAP Z-Score to show how far the current price deviates from the VWAP in terms of standard deviations. It highlights overbought and oversold conditions with visual signals, aiding in the identification of potential market reversals. The tool is customizable, allowing users to adjust parameters for their specific trading needs.
🔶 Features
VWAP Z-Score Calculation: Measures the deviation of the current price from the VWAP using standard deviations.
Customizable Parameters: Allows users to set the length of the VWAP Z-Score calculation and define thresholds for overbought and oversold levels.
Reversal Signals: Provides visual signals when the Z-Score crosses the specified thresholds, indicating potential buy or sell opportunities.
🔶 Usage
Extreme Z-Score values (both positive and negative) highlight significant deviations from the VWAP, useful for identifying potential reversal points.
The indicator provides visual signals when the Z-Score crosses predefined thresholds:
A buy signal (🔼) appears when the Z-Score crosses above the lower threshold, suggesting the price may be oversold and a potential upward reversal.
A sell signal (🔽) appears when the Z-Score crosses below the upper threshold, suggesting the price may be overbought and a potential downward reversal.
These signals can help you identify potential entry and exit points in your trading strategy.
🔶 Disclaimer

ASTRE Buy/SellWe have designed one of the best buy /sell indicators ! based on our "Reversal score" indicator, a set of strict conditions based on dynamic divergences and fisher's transformation allows to trigger buy signals. The idea is that at a certain level of technical pressure from the indicator, the market has a high probability of changing direction !
(always with the objective of capturing the best top/bottom :) )
Did you miss your trade entry? No problem! The "Barcolor retest" feature allows you to identify a perfect entry on a retest once the structure has been confirmed after a signal:
Exemple on 30s chart :
Using advice :
Use an ATR-type stop loss, or shelter behind bollinger, a short, fixed distance in pips at a minimum below the last local high/low. Your stop loss must be tight and relevant!
For take profit, I recommend that you trail stop part of your position, exit on a contrary signal, or exit part of the position at 5:1 for example.
it is recommended to lower your risk for each identical consecutive signal: 3 buy signals in a row, take a risk for example of $100 on the first, $70 on the second, $40 on the third. The idea is not to be suffocated by the multiple bad signals within the framework of a bad time frame compared to the amplitude of the trend that we seek to take against the trend!
SOON: Easier configuration for 3 commas, backtests. Stay tuned !
astre_ts can in no way be held responsible if your trading account is liquidated after having followed a buy/sell signal and used a large leverage. The signals are reversals: so many are false before having a (very) good trade. Be sure to have strict risk management, or to use a complete strategy so that your results are faithful to the backtests.
Rainbow Oscillator The Rainbow Oscillator is a technical indicator that shows prices in overbought or oversold areas. That allows you to catch the price reversal point.
---------------
FEATURES
---------------
.:: Dynamic levels ::.
The indicator levels are divided into several zones, which have a fibonacci ratio. Zones determine the overbought/oversold level. Blue and green level zones are better for buying, red and orange for selling. Dynamic levels are used as replacements for classic levels such as -100 and 100 for the CCI indicator or 30 and 70 for the RSI indicator. Dynamic levels work much better than static levels, as they are more adaptive to the current market situation.
.:: Composite oscillator (3 in 1) ::.
The main signal line of the indicator includes all three oscillators RSI, CCI, Stoch in different ratios. In the settings, you can change the proportions or completely remove one of the oscillators by setting its weight to 0
.:: CCI + RSI + Stoch ratio setting ::.
Each of the oscillators has its own weight in the calculation formula: w2 * cci ( + w1 * ( rsi - 50) + (1 - w2 - w1) * ( stoch - 50), this allows you to create the resulting oscillator from all indicators, depending on the weight of each of them. Each weight value must be between 0 and 1 so that the sum of all weights does not exceed 1.
.:: Smoothing levels and lines of the oscillator ::.
Smoothing the oscillator readings allows you to filter out the noise and get more accurate data. Level offset allows you to customize the support for inputs.
.:: Market Flat ::.
Dynamic creation of levels allows you to find in the price reversal zone, even when the price is in a flat
.:: Sources ::.
You can change the data source for the indicator to the number of longs and shorts for the selected asset. For example, BTCUSDLONGS / BTCUSDSHORTS is perfect for Bitcoin, then the oscillator will work on this data and will not use the quote price.
.:: Trend Detection ::.
The main line of the oscillator has 2 colors - green and red. Red means downtrend, green means uptrend. Trend reversal points are most often found in overbought and oversold zones.
.:: Alerts ::.
Alerts inside for next events: Buy (blue point) Sell (red point) and TrendReversal (change line color)
----------------
TRADING
—-------------
There are several possible entry points for the indicator, let's consider them all.
1) Trend reversal.
Long entry: The indicator line is in the green zone below 0 (oversold), while the line changes color from red (downward) to green (upward)
Short entry: The indicator line is in the red zone above the 0 (overbought) mark, while the line changes color from green to red.
2) Red and blue dots.
Long entry: Blue dot
Short Entry: Red Dot
I prefer to use the first trading method.
----------------
SETTINGS
----------------
.:: Trend Filter (checkbox) ::.
Use trend confirmation for red/blue dots. When enabled, the blue dot requires an uptrend, red dot requires downtrend confirmation before appearing.
.:: Use long/shorts (checkbox) ::.
Change formula to use longs and shorts positions as data source (instead of quote price)
.:: RSI weight / CCI weight / Stoch weight ::.
Weight control coefficients for RSI and CCI indicators, respectively. When you set RSI Weight = 0, equalize the combo of CCI and Stoch , when RSI Weight is zero and CCI Weight is equal to the oscillator value will be plotted
only from Stoch . Intermediate values have a high degree of measurement of each of the three oscillators in percentage terms from 0 to 100. The calculation uses the formula: w2 * cci ( + w1 * ( rsi - 50) + (1 - w2 - w1) * ( stoch - 50),
where w1 is RSI Weight and w2 is CCI Weight, Stoch weight is calculated on the fly as (1 - w2 - w1), so the sum of w1 + w2 should not exceed 1, in this case Stoch will work as opposed to CCI and RSI .
.:: Oscillograph fast and slow periods ::.
The fast period is the period for the moving average used to smooth CCI, RSI and Stoch. The slow period is the same. The fast period must always be less than the slow period.
.:: Oscillograph samples period::.
The period of smoothing the total values of indicators - creates a fast and slow main lines of the oscillator.
.:: Oscillograph samples count::.
How many times smoothing applied to source data.
.:: Oscillator samples type ::.
Smoothing line type e.g. EMA, SMA, RMA …
.:: Level period ::.
Periodically moving averages used to form the levels (zone) of the Rainbow Oscillator indicator
.:: Level offset ::.
Additional setting for shifting levels from zero points. Can be useful for absorbing levels and filtering input signals. The default is 0.
.:: Level redundant ::.
It characterizes the severity of the state at each iteration of the level of the disease. If set to 1 - the levels will not decrease when the oscillator values fall. If it has a value of 0.99 - the levels are reduced by 0.01
each has an oscillator in 1% of cases and is pressed to 0 by more aggressive ones.
.:: Level smooth samples ::.
setting allows you to set the number of strokes per level. Measuring the number of averages with the definition of the type of moving averages
.:: Level MA Type ::.
Type of moving average, average for the formation of a smoothing overbought and oversold zone
ETS MA Deviation ExtremesWhile trading, I noticed that emphasis is often placed on how far price has moved from the moving average (whichever a trader prefers). In these cases I also found that Bollinger Bands only sometimes played a factor in determining whether price had moved "too far" from the moving average to potentially result in a sharp move back to the average.
Because I wanted something more objective than a "gut feeling" that price has moved away from the average enough to make it move back, I decided to see what I could do to determine the standard deviation of how price action moved away from the average , in order to determine when it could potentially have a "rubber band effect" to jump back to the "norm". The result of that is the ETS MA Deviation Extremes indicator, and I hope that it will help you in your trading.
The indicator also has bar coloring included, which can be turned off, which gives a good on-chart visual to warn you that the price action might reverse. This has often helped me to be a bit more cautious before just jumping into a trade that might be on the brink of reversing and taking my position out, and it actually turned out to be a good indicator for a reversal trade strategy.
The histogram bars give an indication of how far the price has moved away from the average, and I look for a potential reversal as soon as the histograms move back inside the deviation lines after having been outside it. The bar coloration actually depend on more than one set of deviation lines, but putting all of that on the chart just makes it confusing, so I removed the ones that I felt were not essential to make it clearer.
I hope it helps you in your trading and makes it easier for you to trade successfully!

Expansion Triangle [TradingFinder] MegaPhone Broadening🔵 Introduction
The Expanding Triangle, also known as the Broadening Formation, is one of the key technical analysis patterns that clearly reflects growing market volatility, increasing indecision among participants, and the potential for sharp price explosions.
This pattern is typically defined by a sequence of higher highs and lower lows, forming within two diverging trendlines. Unlike traditional triangles that converge to a breakout point, the expanding triangle pattern becomes wider over time, leaving no precise apex for a breakout to occur.
From a price action perspective, the pattern represents a prolonged tug-of-war between buyers and sellers, where neither side has taken control yet. Each aggressive swing opens the door to new opportunities whether it's a trend reversal, range trading, or a momentum breakout. This dual nature makes the pattern highly versatile across market conditions, from exhausted trend ends to volatile consolidation zones.
The custom-built indicator for this pattern uses a combination of smart algorithms and detailed analysis of swing dynamics to automatically detect expanding triangles and highlight low-risk entry points.
Traders can use this tool to capitalize on high-probability setups from shorting near the upper edge of the structure with confirmation, to trading bearish breakouts during trend continuations, or entering long positions near the lower boundary during bullish reversals. The chart examples included in this article demonstrate these three highly practical trading scenarios in live market conditions.
A major advantage of this indicator lies in its structural filtering engine, which analyzes the behavior of each price leg in the triangle. With four adjustable filter levels from Very Aggressive, which highlights all potential patterns, to Very Defensive, which only triggers when price actually touches the triangle's trendlines the indicator ensures that only structurally sound and verified setups appear on the chart, reducing noise and false signals significantly.
Long Setup :
Short Setup :
🔵 How to Use
The pattern typically forms in conditions of heightened uncertainty and volatility, where price swings generate a series of higher highs and lower lows. The expanding triangle consists of three key legs bounded by diverging trendlines. The indicator intelligently analyzes each leg's direction and angle to determine whether a valid pattern is forming.
At the core of the indicator’s logic is its leg filtering system, which controls the quality of the pattern and filters out weak or noisy setups. Four structural filter modes are available to suit different trading styles and risk preferences. In Very Aggressive mode, filters are disabled, and the indicator detects any pattern purely based on the sequence of swing points.
This mode is ideal for traders who want to see everything and apply their own discretion.
In Aggressive mode, the indicator checks whether each new leg extends no more than twice the length of the previous one. If a leg overshoots excessively, the structure is invalidated.
In Defensive mode, the filter enforces a minimum movement requirement each leg must move at least 2% of the previous one. This prevents the formation of shallow, weak patterns that visually resemble triangles but lack substance.
The strictest setting, Very Defensive, combines all previous filters and additionally requires the price to physically touch the triangle’s trendlines before issuing a signal. This ensures that setups only appear when real market interaction with key structural levels has occurred, not based on assumptions or geometry alone. This mode is ideal for traders seeking maximum precision and minimal risk.
🟣 Bullish Setup
A bullish setup within the Expanding Triangle pattern occurs when price revisits the lower support boundary after a series of broad swings typically near the third leg of the formation. This area often represents a shift in momentum, where sellers begin to lose strength and buyers prepare to take control.
Ideally, the setup is accompanied by a bullish reversal candle (e.g. doji, pin bar, or engulfing) near the lower trendline. If the Very Defensive filter is active, the indicator will only issue a signal if price makes a confirmed touch on the trendline and reacts from that level. This significantly improves signal accuracy and filters out premature entries.
After confirmation, traders may choose to enter a long position on the bullish candle or shortly afterward. A logical stop-loss is placed just below the recent swing low within the pattern. The target can be set at or near the upper trendline, or projected using the full height of the triangle added to the breakout point. On higher timeframes, this reversal often marks the beginning of a strong uptrend.
🟣 Bearish Setup
A bearish setup forms when price climbs toward the upper resistance trendline, usually as the third leg completes. This is where buyers often begin to show exhaustion, and sellers step in with strength providing an ideal low-risk entry point for short positions.
As with the bullish setup, if the Candle Confirmation filter is enabled, the indicator will only show a signal when a bearish reversal candle forms at the point of contact. If Defensive or Very Defensive filters are also active, the setup must meet strict criteria of proportionate leg movement and an actual trendline touch to qualify.
Once confirmed, traders can enter on the reversal candle, placing a stop-loss slightly above the recent high. The target can be set at the lower trendline or calculated based on the triangle's full height, projected downward. This setup is particularly useful at the end of weak bullish trends or in volatile market tops.
🔵 Settings
🟣 Logic Settings
Pivot Period : Defines how many bars are analyzed to identify swing highs and lows. Higher values detect larger, slower structures, while lower values respond to faster patterns. The default value of 13 offers a balanced sensitivity.
Pattern Filter :
Very Aggressive : Detects all patterns based on point sequence with no structural checks.
Aggressive : Ensures each leg is no more than 2x the size of the previous one.
Defensive : Requires each leg to be at least 2% the size of the previous leg.
Very Defensive : The strictest level; only confirms patterns when price touches trendlines.
Candle Confirmation : When enabled, the indicator requires a valid confirmation candle (doji, pin bar, engulfing) at the interaction point with the trendline before issuing a signal. This reduces false entries and improves entry precision.
🟣 Alert Settings
Alert : Enables alerts for SSS.
Message Frequency : Determines the frequency of alerts. Options include 'All' (every function call), 'Once Per Bar' (first call within the bar), and 'Once Per Bar Close' (final script execution of the real-time bar). Default is 'Once per Bar'.
Show Alert Time by Time Zone : Configures the time zone for alert messages. Default is 'UTC'.
🔵 Conclusion
The Expanding Triangle pattern, with its wide structure and volatility-driven nature, represents chaos but also opportunity. For traders who can read its behavior, it provides some of the most powerful setups for reversals, breakouts, and range-based trades. While the pattern may seem messy at first glance, it is built on clear logic and when properly detected, it offers high-probability opportunities.
This indicator doesn’t just draw expanding triangles it intelligently evaluates their structural quality, validates price interaction through candle confirmation, and allows the trader to fine-tune the detection logic through adjustable filter levels. Whether you’re a reversal trader looking for a turning point, or a breakout trader hunting momentum, this tool adapts to your strategy.
In volatile or uncertain markets, where fakeouts and sudden shifts are common, this indicator can become a cornerstone of your trading system helping you turn volatility into structured, high-quality opportunities.

Bull Bear Trend IndicatorIntroduction: Origin of the Swing Point Indicator
In the quest for a reliable indicator that accurately predicts trend directions and identifies valid highs and lows, the genesis of the Swing Point Indicator emerged. Faced with the challenge of finding a tool that provided comprehensive market analysis and actionable insights, the need for a novel solution became evident. Combining insights gleaned from market analysis and innovative algorithmic approaches, the Swing Point Indicator was born.
Enhanced Feature: Highs and Lows Labeling in Trend Direction
In addition to its core functionalities, the Swing Point Indicator incorporates an advanced feature that enhances the visualization of trend direction. This feature provides further clarity by selectively labeling highs and lows based on the prevailing trend, reinforcing the identification of higher highs and lower lows in uptrends and downtrends, respectively. Overlapping labels on highs and lows signify a potential trend change, providing traders with valuable insight into market reversals.
Detailed Description:
1. Uptrend Labeling:
- Higher Highs (Green Label with Price): In an uptrend, where higher highs are observed, the indicator labels these points with vibrant green color and includes the corresponding price value. This visually highlights the significance of higher highs as pivotal points in the upward trajectory of prices.
- Higher Lows (Red Marker without Text or Diamond): To complement the identification of higher highs, higher lows are marked with a distinct red marker or diamond, devoid of any accompanying text. While these points are crucial in delineating the ascending trend, their emphasis lies in their role as support levels, providing a foundation for upward price movements.
2. Downtrend Labeling:
- Lower Lows (Red Label with Price): Conversely, in a downtrend characterized by lower lows, the indicator labels these points with conspicuous red color, accompanied by the corresponding price value. Lower lows signify critical levels of downward price momentum, acting as indicators of potential bearish continuation.
- Lower Highs (Green Marker without Text or Diamond): Lower highs, indicative of downward retracements in a downtrend, are marked by distinctive green markers or diamonds without accompanying text. While these points denote temporary pauses or pullbacks in the bearish trend, their emphasis lies in their role as resistance levels, impeding upward price movements.
Functionality and Utility:
- Customizable Lookback Candle Count: Traders have the option to adjust the lookback candle count, which is set by default at 108 candles in the settings. This flexibility allows traders to tailor the indicator to their specific trading preferences and timeframes.
- Equal Highs or Lows Option: When enabled, the Swing Point Indicator can identify equal highs or equal lows, providing traders with additional insight into market dynamics.
- Formation Confirmation: A new higher high along with its higher low or a new lower low along with its lower high is confirmed after two candles have closed following the swing point candle. This ensures the reliability of the identified trend direction.
Conclusion:
The incorporation of selective labeling for highs and lows based on trend direction, alongside the introduction of customizable settings and formation confirmation criteria, enhances the effectiveness of the Swing Point Indicator. This feature-rich tool empowers traders with a nuanced understanding of market dynamics, highlighting critical price levels and trend reversals. By offering enhanced visualization, customizable options, and confirmation criteria, the Swing Point Indicator equips traders with the confidence and precision needed to navigate the markets successfully, contributing to more informed and profitable trading strategies.
Swing Failure Pattern (SFP) [LuxAlgo]The Swing Failure Pattern indicator highlights Swing Failure Patterns (SFP) on the user chart, a pattern occurring during liquidity generation from significant market participants.
A Confirmation level used to confirm a trend reversal is also included. Users can additionally filter out SFP based on a set Volume % Threshold .
🔶 USAGE
Swing failure patterns occur when candle wicks exceed (above/below) a recent swing level but close back below/above it, and occur from more significant market participants engineering liquidity. This pattern can be indicative of a potential trend reversal.
A label and an accentuated wick line highlight the SFP (both can be disabled).
Using a higher "Swings" period will not return different SFP but will however potentially reduce their detection rate.
🔹 Confirmation Level
The confirmation level is the highest point between the previous swing and SFP for a bullish SFP, and the lowest point for a bearish SFP. This level allows confirming a trend reversal after an SFP once the price breaks it.
A small triangle will be displayed when the price closes beyond the confirmation level.
A more reactive and contrarian approach could use the SFP as an entry point, and the confirmation level for taking (partial) profit, or stop loss. The example below shows a possible scenario:
🔹 Volume % Threshold
During the occurrence of an SFP, the Volume % Threshold option allows comparing the cumulative volume outside the Swing level to the total volume of the candle. The following options are included:
Volume outside swing < Threshold: Volume outside the Swing level needs to be lower than x % of total candle volume. Prevent excessive liquidity generation.
Volume outside swing > Threshold: Volume outside the Swing level needs to be higher than x % of total candle volume. Requires more significant liquidity to be generated.
None: No extra filter is applied
Note that in the above case, the left SFP is no longer highlighted because the volume above the swing level was higher than the 25% threshold of the total volume.
When we change the setting to "Volume outside swing > Threshold", we get the reversed situation.
The "Volume outside Swing level" is obtained using intrabar - Lower TimeFrame (LTF) data.
At the intrabar (LTF) level, there are a maximum of 100K bars available. When using the Volume % Threshold filter, a vertical line will highlight the maximum period during which intrabars are available.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 LTF Settings
When 'Auto' is enabled (Settings, LTF), the LTF will be the nearest possible x times smaller TF than the current TF. When 'Premium' is disabled, the minimum TF will always be 1 minute to ensure TradingView plans lower than Premium don't get an error.
Examples with current Daily TF (when Premium is enabled):
500 : 3-minute LTF
1500 (default): 1-minute LTF
5000: 30 seconds LTF (1 minute if Premium is disabled)
The concerning LTF can be seen at the right-top (default) corner.
🔶 SETTINGS
Swings: Period used for the swing detection, with higher values returning longer-term Swing Levels.
Bullish SFP: enable/disable bullish Swing Failure Patterns.
Bearish SFP: enable/disable bearish Swing Failure Patterns.
🔹 Volume Validation
Validation:
Volume outside swing < Threshold: The volume outside the swing level needs to be lower than x % of the total volume.
Volume outside swing > Threshold: The volume outside the swing level needs to be higher than x % of the total volume.
None: No extra validation is applied.
Volume % Threshold: % of total volume as threshold.
Auto + multiple: Adjusts the initial set LTF
LTF: LTF setting
Premium: Enable when your TradingView plan is Premium or higher

Channel CorridorOVERVIEW
The Channel Corridor indicator is designed to operate on a log chart of asset prices (e.g., BTCUSD), specifically on a weekly timeframe.
The intent of the indicator is to provide a visual representation of market dynamics, focusing on a dynamically adjusted corridor around a Simple Moving Average (SMA) of an asset's price. The corridor adapts to changing market conditions. The indicator includes channels within the corridor for additional reference points.
PURPOSE
Trend Identification: The channel corridor can aid in visualising the overall trend, as it dynamically adjusts the corridor based on an SMA and user-defined parameters.
Volatility Assessment: The width of the channel corridor can may act as a gauge of market volatility.
Reversal Points: The channel corridor may signal potential trend reversals or corrections when an asset price approaches the upper or lower bounds of the corridor.
Long-Term Trend Analysis: The channel corridor may aid in longer-term trend analysis.
CONSIDERATIONS
Validation: It's recommended that careful back-testing over historical data be done before acting on any identified opportunities.
User Discretion: Trading decisions should not rely solely on this script. Users should exercise judgment and consider market conditions.
