Session ZonesHow is this different?
After reviewing a handful of session zone based indicators I decided to create this one not seeing exactly what I wanted, even this one only comes partially to my goals. This indicator will add session coloring on the chart in a vertical orientation, up to five sessions currently can be utilized. Timezones can be supplied that are compatible with Trading View so that session times specified in settings can be non-market timezone specific. In a future update I plan to add alerts for price reaching certain sessions, styling of the session zones may change overtime as PineScript feature enhancement allows.
How to use this?
Supply session ranges, color and disable any unneeded, the table at the top right will display whether or not price action is in or out of enabled sessions.
Which market is it meant for?
Any market.
What market conditions does this apply to?
Any condition.

Pivot Pattern Boundaries [cajole]
This script automatically detects horizontal support / resistance levels based on user-programmable criteria.
For example, you can detect boundaries with >3 touches within 200 days, allowing a tolerance of 1/4*ATR.
"Touches" are defined from pivots on the chart. The best way to search for larger/smaller patterns is to increase/decrease the pivot size.*
Future versions will allow "exceptions (i.e. keep drawing the horizontal line even if it is breached once or twice).
*TradingView's Pine script defines a Pivot as the highest point in a group. So, entering "2" means that a day's high needs to be above 2 days before and after (xxYxx) to be considered a high pivot.
This script can be an aid in drawing multiple patterns with horizontal boundaries (rectangles, triangles, head and shoulders, cup & handles, VCPs). I have intentionally avoided trying to code detection of the "other side" of these patterns, as that is where the craft of charting becomes an art.

If you renew your new high price, you'll continue your new high price
When the new low is renewed, the new low is continued.
If you are within the range of the previous candle, use the ratio of the difference between the median value of the previous candle and the closing price of the current candle to determine whether to continue the high or low price.
If a can with a tail that updates a new high price and a new low price at the same time comes out, the phrase "Check_candle!" appears to mean that you should check it with a lower time zone candle.
Divergence Finder (RSI/Price) with OptionsDivergence finder used to find BUY or SELL Signal based on a divergence between Price and RSI (Price goes UP when RSI goes down / opposite )
You can configure the script with several Options :
Source for Price Buy Div : you can use the close price of the candle (by default) or use the high price of the candle for exemple.
Source for Price Sell Div : you can use the close price of the candle (by default) or use the low price of the candle for exemple.
Source for RSI Div : you can use the close price of the candle (by default) to calculate the RSI .
Theses settings allow you to set a minimum RSI level to reach to activate the Divergence finder (p1 is the first point in time, and p2 is the second one):
Min RSI for Sell divergence(p1) : this is the minimum RSI level to reach for the first of the 2 points of divergence (Default 70) for the SELL Signal
Min RSI for Sell divergence (p2) : this is the minimum RSI level to reach for the second of the 2 points of divergence (Default 60) for the SELL Signal
Max RSI for Buy divergence (p1) : this is the minimum RSI level to reach for the first of the 2 points of divergence (Default 30) for the BUY Signal
Max RSI for Buy divergence (p2) : this is the minimum RSI level to reach for the second of the 2 points of divergence (Default 40 ) for the BUY Signal
Theses settings allow you to set a minimum margin difference between our two points (p1 and p2) to validate the Divergence
Min margin between price for displaying divergence (%) : Set a minimum margin (in % of the price) before the indicator validate this divergence
Min margin between RSI for displaying divergence (%) : Set a minimum margin (in % of the RSI ) before the indicator validate this divergence
Display Divergence label : Choose to display the price of the candle, and the RSI when a divergence is found
Display tops/bottoms : Display where the tops and bottoms are calculated directly on the chart
Ross Hook Pattern (Expo)█ Overview
The Ross Hook pattern is one of the most consistent and successful trading patterns that have been around for years. The Ross Hook is the first correction following the breakout of the 1-2-3 formation . This means that the Ross Hook only occurs in established trends. In other words, Ross Hook is a trend continuation setup. To fully understand the Ross Hook formation, you must understand the 1-2-3 pattern .
Ross Hook Pattern (Expo) is an indicator designed to detect the Ross Hook formation automatically and in real-time in any market and timeframe. With the inbuilt alert feature, the Ross Hook Pattern (Expo) Indicator analyzes the market for you and notifies you when the Ross Hook formations have been found.
█ How to use
Use this indicator to identify the Ross Hook pattern and to find good trend continuation setups. The formation can be used to determine when a trend is confirmed and established.

DR/IDR V1Defining Range DR and Implied Defining Range IDR for regular Session and overnight Session
This script is showing the IDR and DR for the regular trading session and for the overnight session based on the rules from the creator of the DR/IDR concept.
It works for all major Forex Pairs, BTC, ETH and the US Equity indices. This concept is based on rules and has a 80 % probability to be correct.
It should be applied in the 5 Min. Timeframe.
The timings for the RDR are from 09.30 - 10.30 am New York local time.
The timings for the ODR are from 03.00 - 04.00 am New York local time.
Rules:
1. If price in the 5 Min timeframe closes above the DR high after 10.30 am or 04.00 am then the DR low will be with 80 percent probability the low of the trading session. This is called confirmation.
2. If price in the 5 Min timeframe closes below the DR low after 10.30 am or 04.00 am then the DR high will be with 80 percent probability the high of the trading session. This is called confirmation.
3. If price closes above the IDR high after 10.30 am or 04.00 am it is an early indication that the low of the DR will be the low of the day and vice versa.

1-2-3 Pattern (Expo)█ Overview
The 1-2-3 pattern is the most basic and important formation in the market. Almost every great market move has started with this formation. That is why you must use this pattern to detect the next big trend. In fact, every trader has used the 1-2-3 formation to detect a trend change without realizing it.
Our 1-2-3 Pattern (Expo) indicator helps traders quickly identify the 1-2-3 Reversal Pattern automatically. By analyzing the price action data, the indicator shows the pattern in real-time. When the pattern is discovered, the 1-2-3 Pattern (Expo) Indicator notifies you via its built-in alert feature! Catching the upcoming big move can't be that much simpler.
█ How to use
The 1-2-3 pattern is used to spot trend reversals. The pattern indicates that a trend is coming to an end and a new one is forming.

Price Average ZonesThis indicator shows the areas where LONGS or SHORTS can be made, the areas are calculated based on the mathematical averages of the high and low peaks of the price.
It also has a line that shows the average of the price movement. you can make shorts when the price enters the orange zone called the "Short Zone".
You can make longs when the price enters the orange zone called the sell zone.
It works in all timeframes, personally I use it in 1 min and in 1 hour.
[TK] Congestion patternDraw on your chart the congestion zone.
The exit of the congestion zone is an interesting time for trading.
How is calculated the congestion zone ?
If the candle close in the range of the previous candle : this is a continuation of the congestion zone
if the candle close out of the range of the previous candle : the congestion zone is over
Session candles & reversals / quantifytools— Overview
Like traditional candles, session based candles are a visualization of open, high, low and close values, but based on session time periods instead of typical timeframes such as daily or weekly. Session candles are formed by fetching price at session start (open), highest price during session (high), lowest price during session (low) and price at session end (close). On top of candles, session based moving average is formed and session reversals detected. Session reversals are also backtested, using win rate and magnitude metrics to better understand what to expect from session reversals and which ones have historically performed the best.
By default, following session time periods are used:
Session #1: London (08:00 - 17:00, UTC)
Session #2: New York (13:00 - 22:00, UTC)
Session #3: Sydney (21:00 - 06:00, UTC)
Session #4: Tokyo (00:00 - 09:00, UTC)
Session time periods can be changed via input menu.
— Reversals
Session reversals are patterns that show a rapid change in direction during session. These formations are more familiarly known as wicks or engulfing candles. Following criteria must be met to qualify as a session reversal:
Wick up:
Lower high, lower low, close >= 65% of session range (0% being the very low, 100% being the very high) and open >= 40% of session range.
Wick down:
Higher high, higher low, close <= 35% of session range and open <= 60% of session range.
Engulfing up:
Higher high, lower low, close >= 65% of session range.
Engulfing down:
Higher high, lower low, close <= 35% of session range.
Session reversals are always based on prior corresponding session , e.g. to qualify as a NY session engulfing up, NY session must have a higher high and lower low relative to prior NY session , not just any session that has taken place in between. Session reversals should be viewed the same way wicks/engulfing formations are viewed on traditional timeframe based candles. Essentially, wick reversals (light green/red labels) tell you most of the motion during session was reversed. Engulfing reversals (dark green/red labels) on the other hand tell you all of the motion was reversed and new direction set.
— Backtesting
Session reversals are backtested using win rate and magnitude metrics. A session reversal is considered successful when next corresponding session closes higher/lower than session reversal close . Win rate is formed by dividing successful session reversal count with total reversal count, e.g. 5 successful reversals up / 10 reversals up total = 50% win rate. Win rate tells us what are the odds (historically) of session reversal producing a clean supporting move that was persistent enough to close that way too.
When a session reversal is successful, its magnitude is measured using percentage increase/decrease from session reversal close to next corresponding session high/low . If NY session closes higher than prior NY session that was a reversal up, the percentage increase from prior session close (reversal close) to current session high is measured. If NY session closes lower than prior NY session that was a reversal down, the percentage decrease from prior session close to current session low is measured.
Average magnitude is formed by dividing all percentage increases/decreases with total reversal count, e.g. 10 total reversals up with 1% increase each -> 10% net increase from all reversals -> 10% total increase / 10 total reversals up = 1% average magnitude. Magnitude metric supports win rate by indicating the depth of successful session reversal moves.
To better understand the backtesting calculations and more importantly to verify their validity, backtesting visuals for each session can be plotted on the chart:
All backtesting results are shown in the backtesting panel on top right corner, with highest win rates and magnitude metrics for both reversals up and down marked separately. Note that past performance is not a guarantee of future performance and session reversals as they are should not be viewed as a complete strategy for long/short plays. Always make sure reversal count is sufficient to draw reliable conclusions of performance.
— Session moving average
Users can form a session based moving average with their preferred smoothing method (SMA , EMA , HMA , WMA , RMA) and length, as well as choose which sessions to include in the moving average. For example, a moving average based on New York and Tokyo sessions can be formed, leaving London and Sydney completely out of the calculation.
— Visuals
By default, script hides your candles/bars, although in the case of candles borders will still be visible. Switching to bars/line will make your regular chart visuals 100% hidden. This setting can be turned off via input menu. As some sessions overlap, each session candle can be separately offsetted forward, clearing the overlaps. Users can also choose which session candles to show/hide.
Session periods can be highlighted on the chart as a background color, applicable to only session candles that are activated. By default, session reversals are referred to as L (London), N (New York), S (Sydney) and T (Tokyo) in both reversal labels and backtesting table. By toggling on "Numerize sessions", these will be replaced with 1, 2, 3 and 4. This will be helpful when using a custom session that isn't any of the above.
Visual settings example:
Session candles are plotted in two formats, using boxes and lines as well as plotcandle() function. Session candles constructed using boxes and lines will be clear and much easier on the eyes, but will apply only to first 500 bars due to Tradingview related limitations. Rest of the session candles go back indefinitely, but won't be as clean:
All colors can be customized via input menu.
— Timeframe & session time period considerations
As a rule of thumb, session candles should be used on timeframes at or below 1H, as higher timeframes might not match with session period start/end, leading to incorrect plots. Using 1 hour timeframe will bring optimal results as greatest amount historical data is available without sacrificing accuracy of OHLC values. If you are using a custom session that is not based on hourly period (e.g. 08:00 - 15:00 vs. 08.00 - 15.15) make sure you are using a timeframe that allows correct plots.
Session time periods applied by default are rough estimates and might be out of bounds on some charts, like NYSE listed equities. This is rarely a problem on assets that have extensive trading hours, like futures or cryptocurrency. If a session is out of bounds (asset isn't traded during the set session time period) the script won't plot given session candle and its backtesting metrics will be NA. This can be fixed by changing the session time periods to match with given asset trading hours, although you will have to consider whether or not this defeats the purpose of having candles based on sessions.
— Practical guide
Whether based on traditional timeframes or sessions, reversals should always be considered as only one piece of evidence of price turning. Never react to them without considering other factors that might support the thesis, such as levels and multi-timeframe analysis. In short, same basic charting principles apply with session candles that apply with normal candles. Use discretion.
Example #1 : Focusing efforts on session reversals at distinct support/resistance levels
A reversal against a level holds more value than a reversal by itself, as you know it's a placement where liquidity can be expected. A reversal serves as a confirming reaction for this expectation.
Example #2 : Focusing efforts on highest performing reversals and avoiding poorly performing ones
As you have data backed evidence of session reversal performance, it makes sense to focus your efforts on the ones that perform best. If some session reversal is clearly performing poorly, you would want to avoid it, since there's nothing backing up its validity.
Example #3 : Reversal clusters
Two is better than one, three is better than two and so on. If there are rapid changes in direction within multiple sessions consecutively, there's heavier evidence of a dynamic shift in price. In such case, it makes sense to hold more confidence in price halting/turning.
FluidTrades - SMC Lite
Price action and supply and demand is a key strategy use in trading. We wanted it to be easy and efficient for user to identify these zones, so the user can focus less on marking up charts and focus more on executing trades.
This indicator shows you supply and demand zones by using pivot points to show you the recent highs and the recent lows.
Features
This indicator includes some features relevant to SMC , these are highlighted below:
Full internal & swing market structure labeling in real-time
Swing Structure: Displays the swing structure labels & solid lines on the chart (BOS).
Supply & demand ( bullish & bearish )
Swing Points: Displays swing points labels on chart such as HH, HL, LH, LL.
Options to style the indicator to more easily display these concepts
White OB (supply): search for short opportunities
Blue OB (demand): search for long opportunities
Break of structure ( BOS )
For markets to move up and down a break in market structure must occur. A break in market structure occurs when the market begins to shift direction and break the previous HH and HL or HL and LL of the market. We also integrated the feature that you can see the BOS lines. In the indicator settings you can adjust the color of the label.
Settings
SwingHigh/Low Length: Allows the user to select Historical (default) or Present, which displays only recent data on the chart.
Supply/demand box width: Allows user to change the size of the supply and demand box
History to keep: allows the user to select how many most recent supply & demand box appear on the chart.
Visual settings
Show zig zag : allow user to see market patters within the market
Show price action labels: allow user to turn on/off the (swing points)
Supply box color : allow users to change the color of their supply box
Demand box color : allow users to change the color of their supply box
Bos label color : allow users to change the color of their BOS label
Poi label color : allow user to change the color of their POI label
Price action label : allow users to change the color of their swing points labels
Zig zag color : allow users to change the color of the zig/zag market patters
Warning
Never blindly take a trade on a supply/demand box - wait for a proper market structure to occur before considering a trade.
Custom XABCD Validation and Backtesting ToolOverview:
We hear a lot about Gartleys, bats, crabs and the rest of the barnyard crew, but have you ever wondered what other creatures might be lurking out there yet to be discovered? Well wonder no longer, it's time to find out for yourself! The Custom XABCD Validation and Backtesting Tool allows you to define retracement ratios and targets for your very own patterns.
Tips:
(1) Adjust the patterns entry/stop/target configuration and see how it affects the pattern's backtesting results.
(2) Adjust the weights of pattern score components (% error, PRZ confluence, Point D/PRZ confluence), along with the entry minimum score requirements ('If score is above'), and see how it affects the patterns' results.
Pattern Scoring:
The pattern's score is an attempt to represent the quality of a pattern with a single metric. This is one of the most powerful aspects of the tool because it can quickly tell you whether a trade is worth entering. The score is based on 3 components:
(1) Retracement % Accuracy - this measures how closely a pattern's retracement ratios match your defined theoretical values. You can change the "Allowed ratio error %" in Settings to be more or less inclusive.
(2) PRZ Level Confluence - Potential Reversal Zone levels are retracements of the XA, BC, and/or XC legs. These levels indicate where a potential reversal might occur (i.e. pivot point D). The PRZ Level Confluence component measures the closeness of the two closest PRZ levels, relative to the height of the of the XA leg.
(3) Point D / PRZ Confluence - this measures the closeness of point D to either of the two closest PRZ levels (identified in the PRZ Level Confluence component above), relative to the height of the XA leg. In theory, the closer together these levels are, the higher the probability of a reversal.
While the score is percentage-based, it should not be confused with a probability. A score of 96% does not imply a 96% chance of success. It simply represents the average of the three components mentioned above, weighted according to the defined weight parameters. A score of 100% would mean that (1) all leg retracements match the defined theoretical retracement ratios exactly, (2) all PRZ retracement levels are exactly the same value, and (3) pivot point D occurred exactly at the confluent PRZ level.
Pattern scoring research has been ongoing since I introduced the concept with my Harmonic Pattern Detection, Prediction and Backtesting Tool (see below). So the way that the score is calculated is subject to change based on the results of that research.
Candlestick - Kicker PatternNot many candlestick patterns hurt traders on the other side of the trade more than this signal, when it happens, think of it as kicking in the teeth, the pain is real.
An upwards signal is painted when you have a two-bar formation, the one on the left is a bearish one whereas the successive one is bullish, when you have fat bodies in both candles, meaning the open is close to the high and the close is close to the low for the first candle, while the open is close to the low and the close is close to the high for the adjacent candle, the pain is ever more excruciating, the other important condition is the open of the first candle must be lower than the open of the latter one.
The downwards signal is vice versa of the upwards signal.
Tweezer PatternsTweezer top and bottom, also known as tweezers, are reversal candlestick patterns
that signal a potential change in the price direction. Both formations consist of
two candles that occur at the end of a trend, which is in its dying stages.
The tweezer bottom candlestick pattern is a bullish reversal pattern that can be
spotted at the bottom of a downtrend. It consists of two candles, where the first
candle is in line with the bearish trend, while the second candle reflects more
bullish market sentiment as the price bursts higher, in the opposite trend.
The tweezer top candlestick pattern is of the same structure as the tweezer bottom,
except for the fact that it happens at the end of an uptrend, and therefore, it is a
bearish reversal pattern. The first candle is bullish, and it continues in the same
direction, while the second bearish candle indicates that the trend may be changing soon.
Both the bottom and top tweezers are only valid when they occur during uptrends and downtrends.
Their appearance during choppy trading conditions is practically meaningless, and it signals
the market indecision to move in either direction.

HOLP LOHP PivotCOINBASE:BTCUSD
HOLP and LOHP based on John Carter's Mastering the Trade.
HOLP stands for High Of the Low Period
LOHP stands for Low Of the High Period
This indicator is based on John Carter’s HOLP and LOHP from Mastering the Trade. The basic idea is to identify the session high and mark the low of the session high for a short entry, and vice versa for a long entry.
The default look back period is set to 10 here, albeit John Carter didn’t specify a hard coded number but rather the use of experience and common sense.

Divergence Finder [Multigrain]█ OVERVIEW
This indicator is a divergence finder, designed to be overlayed on top of any oscillator. By utilizing an Exponential Moving Average, rather than built-in pivot functions, this allows for insignificant pivots of the oscillator to be filtered out. Additionally, by sampling more than just the previous oscillator pivot, this allows for divergences to be found that would otherwise be overlooked through other methods.
█ CONCEPTS
Interim Price Threshold
A new metric used when determining valid divergences is the Interim Price Threshold (IPT). The IPT is the maximum percent delta the price is allowed to "poke-through" the divergent line at any given time.
Interim Oscillator Threshold
Similar to the Interim Price Threshold, the Interim Oscillator Threshold (IOT) is the maximum percent delta the oscillator is allowed to "poke-through" the divergent line at any given time.
Dynamic Midline
Commonly a static midline is utilized when determining whether a divergence may be bullish or bearish. By utilizing the built-in percentile nearest rank function, the midline is automatically and dynamically determined based on the previous 250 bars. As a result certain divergences which may otherwise be overlooked will be discovered.
█ SETTINGS
Oscillator Source: The oscillator in which you want find divergences from. Default to a MACD oscillator when unchanged.
Price Source: The price source in which you want to find divergences from.
Moving Average Length: The length of the exponential moving average used when determining the pivot points of the selected oscillator.
█ USAGES
Divergence in technical analysis can indicate a significant bullish or bearish price move. A bullish divergence occurs when an asset's price makes a new low while an indicator begins to rise. A bearish divergence occurs when the price makes a new high but the indicator under consideration makes a lower high.
Zig Zag Ratio Simplified█ OVERVIEW
This indicator was to show ratio between zig zag. Ideally to find Fibonacci Retracement / Projection, Harmonic Patterns, ABCD, Elliot Wave and etc.
