Enhanced Neowave Wave 1 Finder with ZigZagThis script is an advanced technical analysis indicator for the TradingView platform, written in Pine Script version 5. Its primary goal is to identify potential Elliott Wave "Wave 1" patterns, enhanced with principles from Neowave theory and a custom ZigZag indicator for more accurate pivot detection. The script is designed to be overlaid on the main price chart.
Core Functionality: Blending ZigZag and Neowave
The indicator's methodology is a two-part process. First, it identifies significant price swings using a robust ZigZag indicator. Then, it analyzes these swings based on a set of rules derived from Neowave and classic technical analysis to validate them as potential Wave 1 patterns.
Part 1: ZigZag Integration
The first major component is a comprehensive ZigZag indicator that forms the foundation for all subsequent analysis.
Pivot Detection: The pivots() function is the engine of the ZigZag. It scans the historical price data for significant high and low points (pivots) over a user-defined Length.
Segment Drawing: Once pivots are identified, the script draws lines connecting them, creating the classic ZigZag pattern on the chart.
Extended Direction & Ratios: This is an enhanced feature. The script doesn't just identify highs and lows; it categorizes them as:
Higher High (HH) or Lower High (LH)
Lower Low (LL) or Higher Low (HL)
This classification is crucial for understanding the market structure. It also calculates the price ratio of the most recent ZigZag leg relative to the previous one, which is used later for pattern validation.
Dynamic Updates: The ZigZag is not static. On each new bar, it can update its most recent pivot point if a new, more extreme price (a higher high or a lower low) is printed before the direction officially changes. This ensures the ZigZag is always reflecting the most current and significant price action.
Part 2: Neowave Wave 1 Finder
With the market structure defined by the ZigZag, the second part of the script applies a rigorous set of rules to identify potential Wave 1 patterns. A Wave 1 is the initial move of a new trend in Elliott Wave theory.
Key Validation Criteria
For a price move between two ZigZag pivots to be considered a valid Wave 1, it must pass a series of checks:
Significance: The move must have a minimum percentage change (Minimum Wave Length) and last for a minimum number of bars, filtering out insignificant noise.
Volume Confirmation: A genuine impulse wave is typically supported by increasing volume. The script checks if the volume during the potential Wave 1 is significantly higher than the recent average (Volume Increase Threshold).
Momentum Alignment: The direction of the wave must be confirmed by momentum indicators.
For a bullish (upward) Wave 1, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) must be in a bullish regime (above 50) and the MACD line must be above its signal line.
For a bearish (downward) Wave 1, the RSI must be below 50 and the MACD line must be below its signal line.
Structural Analysis (Impulse vs. Diagonal): The script attempts to differentiate between two types of Wave 1:
Impulse Wave: A strong, clean, and direct move.
Diagonal Wave: A more complex, overlapping, and often wedge-shaped pattern. This is identified by analyzing the time and price complexity of the move, along with the ZigZag leg ratios.
Wave 2 Retracement Check: A critical Neowave rule is that a valid Wave 1 must be followed by a valid Wave 2 retracement. The script looks at the next ZigZag leg to ensure it doesn't retrace more than 100% of the potential Wave 1. It also uses the ZigZag ratios to confirm the retracement falls within typical Fibonacci levels (e.g., 38.2% to 78.6%).
Display and User Interface
The script provides a rich visual experience to aid the trader in their analysis.
Wave Labels and Boxes: When a valid Wave 1 is detected, it is highlighted with a colored line (green for bullish, red for bearish) and a shaded background box. A label clearly marks it as "Wave 1 IMPULSE" or "Wave 1 DIAGONAL".
Fibonacci Retracement Levels: Upon detection of a Wave 1, the script automatically draws key Fibonacci retracement levels (38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, 78.6%). These levels are potential targets for the end of the subsequent Wave 2, offering potential entry points for a Wave 3 trade.
Information Labels: Additional labels provide at-a-glance confirmation of the conditions, showing whether volume and momentum criteria were met.
Customizable Inputs: Users have extensive control over the indicator's parameters, including the ZigZag length, volume thresholds, RSI levels, and the colors of all visual elements.
Alerts: The indicator can be configured to generate an alert whenever a new bullish or bearish Wave 1 pattern is confirmed, allowing traders to be notified of potential opportunities in real-time.

High Freq Buy The Dips Bull Market [Quant Trading]STRATEGY OVERVIEW
This is a significantly enhanced and optimized version of the original "Buy The Dips in Bull Market" strategy from Coinrule (2020). The strategy has been completely rewritten in Pine Script v6 with substantial improvements in performance, risk management, and functionality. Based on extensive analysis of 2+ years of BTC hourly data, this optimized version delivers 312.6% better returns with a 74.8% win rate compared to the original implementation.
Key Philosophy: The strategy capitalizes on temporary price dips during bull market conditions by entering long positions when RSI indicates oversold conditions while maintaining a bullish market structure, then exiting when price recovers above key moving averages.
HOW IT WORKS
Entry Logic
The strategy enters long positions when ALL of the following conditions are met:
RSI Oversold Condition: RSI drops below the configurable threshold (default: 45)
Bull Market Structure: Long-term MA (150) is below the slow MA (40), indicating overall bullish momentum
Within Date Range: Trade occurs within the specified backtesting period
Exit Logic
Positions are closed when BOTH conditions are satisfied:
Price Recovery: Current price moves above the fast MA (15-period)
MA Alignment: Fast MA crosses above slow MA, confirming trend continuation
Optional Short Trading
When enabled, the strategy can also trade short positions using inverse logic:
Short Entry: RSI overbought (above 55 by default) + bearish market structure
Short Exit: Price decline below fast MA + bearish MA alignment
KEY IMPROVEMENTS OVER ORIGINAL
1. Enhanced Risk Management
ATR-Based Stop Loss/Take Profit: Dynamic risk levels based on market volatility
Configurable Risk-Reward Ratio: Default 2:1 ratio with full customization
Alternative Percentage-Based Risk: Option to use fixed percentage stops instead of ATR

CRT + PO3 Range Theory Hey everyone, I’ve put together a little script for TradingView that tries to show the classic CRT + PO3 (Power of Three) pattern. It’s still a work in progress, so please use it on a demo account and let me know what you think!
What It Does
Accumulation Phase: On each higher‐timeframe bar (e.g. 2-hour), it draws a shaded zone where price is hanging out. That’s when we assume “big players” are quietly building positions.
Manipulation Phase: If price briefly pokes above or below that zone but then slips back inside, it marks that wick as a shake-out.
Distribution Phase: When price finally closes cleanly outside the zone, it draws another shaded area and drops a “Distribution” label plus a big LONG or SHORT arrow on that bar.
You can tweak it so it only shows signals when a bar closes (no more weird flashing mid-bar), or even allow “direct” Distribution on a clean breakout without waiting for a fake wick first.
How to Set It Up
Add the script from your Indicators list.
Pick your HTF (I like 2-hour or 4-hour).
Turn “Show Zone Labels” on or off—these are the little “Accumulation/Manipulation/Distribution” tags.
Turn “Show Entry Signals” on to get the big LONG/SHORT arrows.
If you hate flicker, check “Show signals only at bar close.”
If you want to catch a swift breakout (no fake-out needed), check “Allow direct Distribution on clean breakout.”
There are also sliders for zone colors, transparency, label size, and how far above/below the bars the labels sit.
Why It’s Still a Beta
I’m not a CRT/PO3 guru—this is more of a hobby project and a little facination for this strategy.
There might be edge cases where it misses a shake-out or flags a Distribution too early.
I take no responsibility for your trades—please only run it on a demo account until we’ve worked out the quirks.
Feedback Wanted!
If you try it out, I’d love to hear:
Did the Manipulation wicks line up where you expected?
Were the Distribution arrows on the right bars?
Any ideas for easier settings or extra alerts?
Thanks for testing and helping me turn this into something solid!

Candle Range Theory (CRT) indicator📌 Indicator Name: Candle Range Theory (CRT) indicator
This indicator detects potential bullish and bearish reversal setups based on specific candlestick price action behavior. It is designed to highlight moments when the market may be rejecting extremes and preparing to reverse direction — but only after confirmation with the closing price.
🔍 How It Works:
Bullish Setup (Long Signal):
The previous candle is bearish (closes lower than it opens).
The current candle makes a lower low than the previous one.
The current candle closes above the previous candle’s close.
Bearish Setup (Short Signal):
The previous candle is bullish (closes higher than it opens).
The current candle makes a higher high than the previous one.
The current candle closes below the previous candle’s close.
Signals are only triggered after the bar is fully closed, to avoid premature entries.
🔔 The script includes alert conditions for both long and short setups so you can receive notifications instantly.
🎥 Inspiration:
The idea for this indicator came from the excellent educational content presented in this video:

HTF Candle Extremes Zigzag (Drawn on LTF)HTF Candle Extremes Zigzag (Drawn on LTF)
This indicator plots zigzag lines connecting the extremes (highs and lows) of Higher Timeframe (HTF) candles directly on your lower timeframe (LTF) chart. It visually highlights trend changes and HTF candle structure by drawing colored lines representing uptrends and downtrends based on HTF candle extremes.
"Key Features"
Higher Timeframe Tracking: Select any HTF to track candle extremes using the built-in security function.
Zigzag Lines: Connects HTF candle lows to highs in an intuitive zigzag pattern.
Trend Indication: Uptrend lines are green, downtrend lines are red (customizable colors).
Customizable Line Width: Adjust the thickness of the zigzag lines for better visibility.
Drawn on Lower Timeframe: All lines appear on your active lower timeframe chart, allowing easy visual correlation.
"How It Works"
The script fetches the open, high, low, close, and time data of the specified HTF candle. It detects new HTF bars and identifies trend direction changes by comparing the highs and lows of consecutive HTF candles.
- When an uptrend is detected, vertical lines are drawn from low to high of the HTF candle, connected to the previous extreme low.
- When a downtrend is detected, vertical lines are drawn from high to low, connected to the previous extreme high.
- Transitions between trends are highlighted by connecting the last extreme of the previous trend to the current extreme, creating a clean zigzag pattern.
Usage Notes:
Ideal for traders who want to visualize HTF market structure and trend changes while analyzing price action on lower timeframes.

High Selling Point Reversal V6.0Criteria combined for a "High Selling Point" signal: Best used for exiting long positions or entering shorts
Overbought Condition (RSI):
Purpose: Ensures the asset has had a significant run-up and is potentially exhausted.
Criteria: RSI (Relative Strength Index) is above a certain threshold (e.g., 70 or 80).
Bearish Candlestick Reversal Pattern:
Purpose: Identifies specific price action that indicates a shift from buying to selling pressure.
Criteria: We can implement detection for one or more strong bearish patterns. A good starting point would be:
Bearish Engulfing: A bearish candle whose real body completely covers the previous bullish candle's real body. This is a very strong two-candle reversal signal.
Shooting Star: A candle with a small real body at the lower end of the range, a long upper shadow, and little to no lower shadow. It signifies rejection of higher prices.
Evening Star: A three-candle pattern: a large bullish candle, followed by a small-bodied candle (the "star"), and then a large bearish candle. This is a powerful top reversal.
Negative Divergence (Optional but powerful):
Purpose: Indicates weakening momentum despite price continuing to rise, suggesting underlying weakness.
Criteria: Price makes a higher high, but a momentum oscillator (like RSI or MACD) makes a lower high.

DP_ORB Entry & Exit IndicatorDisclaimer:
This indicator is for educational purposes only. It does not constitute financial advice. Always do your own research and manage your risk. Also, I cannot take full credit for 'ORB' as its a well known strategy amongst many traders, but I do need to give a special shout out to @TheBigDaddyMax for putting me on to this.
DP_ORB Entry & Exit Indicator
Description:
The DP_ORB Entry & Exit Indicator is a powerful tool designed for traders who utilize the Opening Range Breakout (ORB) strategy on the NYSE session. This indicator visually identifies the initial volatility window of the trading day, by marking the 15m High, and 15m Low into a ORB Box, & then tracks breakout opportunities, and provides clear, dynamic trade management levels—all directly on your chart.
Key Features:
Automatic Opening Range (ORB) Box:
Identifies and plots the high and low of the user-defined opening range (default 9:30–9:45 NYSE) for visual reference and strategy foundation.
Breakout Entry Signals:
Automatically detects and marks long or short breakout entries when price closes above or below the ORB range, with additional momentum confirmation.
Dynamic Stop Loss:
Stop loss is intelligently set to the previous bar’s low for long trades (or high for shorts), adapting to market structure at entry.
Take Profit Targets:
Up to three fully adjustable take-profit levels are plotted, calculated as percentages from entry, supporting progressive trade management.
Visual Trade Management:
Entry, stop loss, and take profit levels are displayed as extending dashed lines from entry point to the current bar, with labels always shown just to the right of price for clarity on all timeframes.
Automatic Reset and Cleanup:
Visuals and logic reset daily and upon exit, ensuring a clean, uncluttered chart experience.
How to Use:
Set your preferred opening range time and take profit levels in the settings.
Wait for a breakout and confirmation during the NYSE session.
Use the on-chart lines and labels to manage your trade according to your risk and strategy plan.
Best For:
Day traders and scalpers seeking a disciplined, visual, and fully-automated approach to opening range breakout trading.
Break & Retest Strategy V2 (Clean Visuals)This strategy is built on a high-probability EMA breakout and retest model, designed for traders who want clean structure-based entries filtered by trend alignment and strong price action. It leverages:
• ✅ A 44 EMA trend filter on the 4H chart
• ✅ HTF directional bias from the Daily 44 EMA
• ✅ Breakout above the EMA followed by a wick-based retest
• ✅ Strong bullish candle confirmation (body > 50% of range)
• ✅ Dynamic stop loss using either the pivot low or a buffer below the EMA
• ✅ Fixed 1:3 Risk:Reward ratio for consistent reward targeting
• ✅ Cooldown system to prevent overtrading
• ✅ Clean, minimal visuals using smart RR boxes instead of chart clutter
This system is fully backtestable and designed with prop firm challenge criteria in mind — prioritizing risk control, clarity, and high-quality trade conditions.
⸻
🔧 Current Development Goals (V3 Roadmap)
We’re actively refining the system to improve win rate and profit factor, while keeping drawdown low. Key upgrades in progress:
1. 📈 Liquidity Trap Filter
• Add logic to confirm a wick below recent lows (liquidity sweep) before retesting the EMA
2. 🧠 Partial Take Profits + Breakeven Logic
• TP1 at 1.5R → move SL to breakeven
• TP2 at 3R → close remaining position
3. 🔁 Trade Session Filter
• Limit entries to London & New York AM sessions to avoid false signals in low volume periods
4. 📉 Short Entry Engine
• Mirror logic for bearish break + retest setups below the EMA
5. 🔔 Live Alerts System
• Entry signal alerts for hands-free, real-time trading decisions
6. 📊 Optimizer Toolkit (future)
• Add ATR/volatility filters
• Add market structure confluence zones (HH/HL filters)
• Smart cooldown timer based on wins/losses or volatility shifts
Smart Impulse Exhaustion Finder (ATR + ADX Filter)
Smart Impulse Exhaustion Finder (ATR + ADX Filter)
This advanced script helps you spot potential trend exhaustion points exactly where impulsive moves may lose strength.
It automatically combines multiple conditions:
✅ Identifies fresh swing highs and lows using a smart lookback range.
✅ Confirms strong price extension with a minimum ATR distance from the previous swing.
✅ Uses RSI extremes, volume spikes, and candle wick rejection to detect signals only when at least two out of three exhaustion factors align.
✅ Filters out false signals during sideways chop using an ADX trend strength filter.
✅ Ignores noise candles like dojis by requiring a clear minimum body size.
This makes the tool flexible for catching late-stage trend impulses that might be due for a pullback or reversal — ideal for trailing stop strategies, partial profit taking, or hunting reversal setups on crypto, forex or stocks.
How to use
📌 Tip: This is a sniper-type tool that can catch the very start of a reversal.
Therefore, when trading its signals, it’s strongly recommended to use a Risk:Reward ratio of at least 1:3 — especially for crypto markets.
The idea is simple:
Look for exhaustion signals at fresh swing highs for potential short pullbacks.
Or at fresh swing lows for potential long reversals.
Combine with your own trend and context tools.
Always test thoroughly before live trading.
Inputs
🔹 Extremum Lookback: Defines how far back to check for fresh highs/lows.
🔹 ATR Threshold: Controls the minimum impulse distance.
🔹 ADX Filter: Ensures signals only appear in meaningful trending conditions.
🔹 Body and Wick Filters: Reduce noise by rejecting tiny candles and highlighting clear rejection tails.

It highlights institutional inefficiencies in price caused by imbalanced price action and helps traders spot high-probability entry zones, especially after the 9:30 AM EST (New York Open).
⚙️ How It Works
Session time: The indicator scans for FVGs starting at 9:32 AM (allowing 3 candles after the NY Open to form).
FVG Conditions:
Bullish FVG: When the high of 2 candles ago is lower than the low of the current candle and the middle candle is bullish.
Bearish FVG: When the low of 2 candles ago is higher than the high of the current candle and the middle candle is bearish.
Only the first FVG per session is drawn, as taught by ICT for setups like Judas Swing or NY Reversal models.
A colored box is drawn to represent the FVG zone.
A dotted horizontal line (CE) is drawn at the midpoint of the FVG box (Consequent Encroachment), a key level watched by smart money traders.
A dashed vertical line is drawn at 9:30 NY time to mark the open.
🧠 How to Use It
Wait for the NY Open (9:30 AM EST) – the indicator becomes active at 9:32 AM.
Watch for the first FVG box of the day. This is often a high-probability reaction zone.
Use the CE line (center of the FVG) as a reference for entries, rejections, or liquidity grabs.
Combine with market structure, PD Arrays, and liquidity concepts as taught by ICT for confluence.
The FVG box and CE line will extend forward for several candles for visual clarity.
