xBrat SlingshotThe xBrat Slingshot Software is designed to identify measured Pull Backs during trends. The Software then identifies two different types of “with trend” trading signals and 1 “trend failure” signal (discussed further down the logic explanation). It is important to know that every pullback is NOT tradeable and a strong set of rules/logic must be used consistently to first measure the pullback. Then a set of repeatable rules/logic is used to identify trading signals when that pullback has found support or resistance within those measured pullback zones. The xBrat Slingshot Software does this all automatically using the following logic.
Long trade
If False Breakout Stochastics (Stoch) closes below 20%, and then closes above 80%, identify a swing low as the lowest price reached since the close below 20%.
When Stoch then closes back down below N%, the algorithm will identify a swing high as the highest price reached since the close above 80.
Behind the chart the software draws a fib retracement from swing low to swing high.
If price ever closed below the 61.8 at any time between the swing high bar and the bar that closed below N%, the software cancels the setup (and undraws pullback zone visuals).
Otherwise our software draws pullback zones at the following fib percentages that are commonly used when measuring pullbacks against a trend.
Pullback zone 1: 23.6-38.2 (default green, light opacity)
Pullback zone 2: 38.2-50 (default green, medium opacity)
Pullback zone 3: 50-61.8 (default green, dark opacity)
If price enters (either closes inside of or touches) a pullback zone and then closes above it without ever closing past (below) it, the setup is confirmed and fib extension targets are drawn (distance from high swing to end of the pullback, extended from the end of the pullback):
Target zone 1: 110-127 (default green, light opacity)
Target zone 2: 161-176 (default green, medium opacity)
Target zone 3: 262-286 (default green, dark opacity)
If price closes past (below) Pullback zone 3 before the setup is confirmed, cancel the setup (and undraw visuals).
Once target zones are drawn, the setup is confirmed and never undrawn.
Short trade
Reverse of the above long trade logic.
Pullback confirmation value: N%
Default zone colour: Red
Once the pullback zone is identified and sufficient initial Support or Resistance occurs within the pullback zones, they are locked along with the target Target Zones for the current move.
Then further confluences are used with our proprietary logic to identify 3 types of Trading Signals. Just because we have a pullback during a trend, doesn't mean we are going to get straight back to the trend. We have identified 2 special sets of confluences that occur in a predefined order to ensure the trend is being returned to with momentum.
These are the Type 1 and Type 2 Trading Signals Below. Then we have another set of circumstances/confluence for when a Trend Fails and traders need to be able to trade these. This is the 3rd type of Trade, a Type 3 below.
Type 1 Trade Signals - Trend Continuation - The following MUST occur within the 3 pullback zones. This signal uses Crosses of Fast and Slow EMA’s which denote the switch back for slingshot and the trend to resume in its original direction after a measured pullback. Then we apply our proprietary EMA cloud for moving out of the pull back zones as a final confirmation for the signal to be Printed.
Type 1 Buy Signals: Fast EMA (default period N, displacement 0) closes below the slow EMA (default period N, displacement N) while in a green pullback zone, and then the fast EMA closes back above the slow EMA without price ever breaking below the last pullback zone (green zones must still be printing). Draw a horizontal line N ticks for entry above the close of the confirmation bar and extend until the lower EMA cloud line breaks it – at which point the lower EMA cloud line is shown as trailing stop
Type 1 Sell Signals: Fast EMA (default period N, displacement 0) closes above the slow EMA (default period N, displacement N) while in a red pullback zone, and then the fast EMA closes back below the slow EMA without price ever breaking above the last pullback zone (red zones must still be printing). Draw a horizontal line N ticks below the close of the confirmation bar and extend until the upper EMA cloud line breaks it – at which point the upper EMA cloud line is shown as trailing stop.
These are the most common of the trading signals when price action follows all of our standard logic rules for a pullback and starts to return in the direction of the main trend after the measured pullback. The highest probability move is to Target 2.
Type 2 Trades - Trend Continuation - For this signal type the Fast and Slow EMA’s DO NOT Cross. BUT price action has to Enter our proprietary EMA cloud and close in the cloud. Then on a set “N” bars must move back out and close outside of the EMA Cloud back in the direction of the original trend. Again, All this must be done within the Pull back Zones.
Type 2 Buy Signal: A bar closes below the upper cloud line while in a green pullback zone, and then within N bars, a bar closes above the upper cloud line without ever breaking below the last pullback zone or the lower EMA Cloud line (green zones must still be printing). Draw a horizontal line N ticks above the close of this bar and extend until the lower EMA cloud line breaks it – at which point the lower EMA cloud line is shown as trailing stop.
Type 2 Sell Signal: A bar closes above the lower cloud line while in a red pullback zone, and then within N bars, a bar closes below the lower cloud line without ever breaking above the last pullback zone or upper EMA cloud line (red zones must still be printing). Draw a horizontal line N ticks below the close of this bar and extend until the upper cloud line breaks it – at which point the upper cloud line is shown as trailing stop.
These are Shallow pullbacks, but still hit the pullback zones. The price action in this instance returns to the direction of the main trend more quickly but still follows a different set of rules to that of Type 1 trades. The Highest Probability move is to target Two
Type 3 Trades - Trend failure - These are trend failure signals where the pullback zones are printed but the price action does not return to the main trend, BUT breaks the third pullback zone and breaks the slingshot rules for a Trend following trade setup. Our proprietary EMA Cloud positioning is then used to confirm and print the signal once the leading edge( direction dependent) moves out of the last pullback zone and we get a candle close with “N” percentage of the pull backs zone's depth.
Type 3 Buy Signal: A bar closes above the highest red pullback zone without pricing previously having ever touched the first red target zone for previous short with trend move. Draw a horizontal line N ticks above the close of the bar that broke the last zone and extend until the lower cloud line breaks it – at which point the lower cloud line is shown as a trailing stop.
Type 3 Sell Signal: A bar closes below the lowest green pullback zone without pricing having ever touched the previous first green target zone for previous long with trend move. Draw a horizontal line N ticks below the close of the bar that broke the last zone and extend until the upper cloud line breaks it – at which point the upper cloud line is shown as a trailing stop.
The Trailing Stop Line is also printed to help with trade management of these 3 different types of trades. This EMA trailing stop is adjustable.
This strategy is designed for Scalping, Day Trading and even Swing Trading. Works with Forex, Crypto, Futures and Stocks.

Logarithmic and Linear Fibonacci LevelsIntroduction
Fibonacci levels are a technical analysis tool used by some traders to identify potential support and resistance levels. The principle for determining these levels is to take the distance between selected reference high and low points (swing high and swing low in general) as 1 unit and mark the ratios derived from the Fibonacci sequence, such as 0.236, 0.382, 0.618, etc., over this 1 unit. In the conventional method of level determination, the 1 unit is divided into equal distances within itself, and Fibonacci levels are determined based on these equal distances. These types of levels are called Linear Levels . A relatively less common method involves dividing the 1 unit into progressively smaller, more accurately described as proportionally equal, distances and determining Fibonacci levels based on these distances. These types are called Logarithmic Levels . The purpose of this indicator is to provide ease of use in determining both Linear and Logarithmic levels.
Where can it be Used?
Logarithmic Levels can be used in any instrument where volatility is high for any reason. Specifically in crypto, Logarithmic Levels work very well for BINANCE:BTCUSDT (to observe this, please study the wick from January 23, 2024). As another example, Logarithmic Levels can be used to identify potential accumulation and distribution schemes in altcoins with relatively high volume and market capitalization (refer to the chart provided above BINANCE:FETUSDT ). Additionally, when analyzing traditional markets, Logarithmic Levels can be beneficial for stocks with highly inflated or deflated prices (e.g., NASDAQ:TSLA , NASDAQ:NVDA ), in stock markets of countries battling high inflation (e.g., BIST:XU100 ), or in currency pairs of countries experiencing a recession (e.g., FX_IDC:JPYUSD ).
How can it be Used?
It is designed similarly to the Fibonacci Tool provided by Trading View to ensure users feel familiar with it. When you start the indicator, select the reference levels (Level 1 and Level 0), then click on the indicator settings to choose specific levels and customize them according to your preferences.
What Makes it Unique?
Indeed, in the Fibonacci Tool provided by Trading View, we can see both linear and logarithmic levels. However, to view logarithmic levels, it is necessary to switch the relevant instrument's Super Chart to a logarithmic scale. This causes the levels we want to remain 'linear' to also be displayed in their logarithmic form, potentially leading to errors in other indicators we use, incorrect functioning of trend lines drawn in linear scaling, and so on. Additionally, when the Super Chart is scaled logarithmically, it prevents the ability to set alerts for prices and trend lines. This indicator was created to avoid these problems without needing to change the chart's scaling method and to allow the simultaneous viewing of both Linear and Logarithmic levels.
Fibonacci Structure & Trend Channel (Expo)█ Overview
The Fibonacci Structure & Trend Channel (Expo) is designed to identify trend direction and potential reversal levels and offer insights into price structure based on Fibonacci ratios. The algorithm plots a Fibonacci channel, making it easier for traders to identify potential retracement points. Additionally, the Fibonacci market structure is plotted to enhance traders' understanding of the underlying order flow.
█ How to Use
Identify Trends
Use the plotted Fibonacci Trend Line to identify the direction of the market trend. A green line typically signifies a bullish trend, while a red line signifies a bearish trend.
Retracement Levels
The plotted Fibonacci levels can act as potential support or resistance levels. Look for price action signs at these levels for entry or exit points.
Channel Trading
If you enable the Fibonacci channel, the upper and lower bounds can act as overbought or oversold levels.
Market Structure
The plotted Fibonacci market structure serves as a valuable tool for dissecting the underlying order flow and gauging the strength or weakness of a trend. By analyzing these structures, traders can identify key levels where supply and demand intersect, which often act as pivotal points for trend reversals or accelerations. This visual representation simplifies complex market dynamics. Whether you're looking to catch a new trend early or seeking confirmation for a potential reversal, understanding the market structure plotted by the Fibonacci ratios can provide actionable insights for various trading strategies.
Use the Table
The information table can provide quick insights into the current trend and when it started.
█ Settings
The Fibonacci settings allow traders to specify the Fibonacci retracement levels that will be used to calculate the trend and its channel.
The Fibonacci Structure Trend Channel structure settings enable traders to fine-tune how the indicator identifies and plots the underlying price structure.

Fibonacci compressionThis script will search x-bars back, if it can find a triangle formation that meets certain Fibonacci ratios.
Based on the trend-based fib extension tool from the first high to the first low and then the 2nd high (in a bullish structure, inverse for bearish), we can predict the take profit levels.
The main target is the 0.618, first take profit is at the 0.236. In a strong trend, one can aim for the 1 fib ratio.
Once the 3 points are known, the script will already plot the take profit levels. It is better to wait until the full pattern develops with a 2nd lower high and a 2nd higher low.
The way I use it, is closing 20% at TP1, 80% of the remainder at TP2 and final close out at TP3.
Stop loss is the red line which will show up after a full pattern is formed.
Plot out the profit levels with the trend based fib extension tool, because once there's a break-out of the pattern, the script won't show the compression any more. (or use the replay button to go back in time to plot it again)
The volume label will appear once there's a divergence between the low and higher low or the high and lower high. It is based on my cumulative volume script. It only works well on timeframes above 4 hour, but volume in favor of a short, doesn't always guarantee a good short setup, so don't take it for granted.
It has around a 30 - 33% chance of hitting your TP2, so make sure the risk to reward is at least 3.
Happy trading!
LA_Periodic_Fibonacci LevelsThis indicator is used to plot the previous high and low of the chosen timeframe along with the Fibonacci levels of 0.50, +/- 0.618 and +/- 0.786.
Provision is given to plot levels for three different time frames at a time.
Options are given to select/unselect the levels as per the user requirement. For plotting the Fibonacci levels of a specific period, user has to select the option "TF1_Fib" or "TF2_Fib" or "TF3_Fib" along with the respective levels (50, +/- 0.618, +/- 0.786).
User has to add different time frames in their layout which can then be used in the drop down menu. By default, daily, weekly and monthly time frames are given.
Indicator is plotted as the candle progresses and not plotted for future time frames in advance.
Below are few examples on larger timeframes.
BTCUSD on 1 min TF (timeframe)
BTCUSD on Daily TF
DJI on Daily TF
Simple Fibonacci Candles + LevelsThis is a simpler alternative to the auto-fibonacci indicators. Calculates the fibonacci levels based on the all-time high and all-time low prices. Candles are then colored based on the current closing price's relation to the 5 levels.
Fibonacci Disciples Auto Levels (ES/NQ/GC/NQ WIDE) - APPROVEDPVTEvery Index, every ETF , every sector started somewhere.
That starting point defines Zones that follow that Index, or ETF forever.
What i am saying is - everything you are trading has a pre-defined range of movement that was established when the stock Index became available to the market.
It is this range that defines specific levels that will always play a significant part in the movement of that stock, or Index for its entire lifespan.
This script will automatically multiply that original price range to the stock or index’s current real time value using Fibonacci sequence and a proprietary pre-calculated Fibonacci formula to draw custom Golden Ratios on your chart in real-time. Each gold line represents a new “Golden Ratio” that is, or has already emerged as price moves up and down.
This phenomenon becomes possible by sealing the gaps between Fibonacci Fractal retracements making each gold line a measured .618:1.618 Golden Ratio.
Having these unique Golden Ratios displayed automatically on your chart allows you as the Trader to always have a price target in mind rather than having to guess where price might be headed on a naked chart.
From there you are welcome to add your favorite moving average or any other tool you wish to help determine the overall direction of the trend whilst using these Golden Ratio targets for scalping opportunities. If you do not know how to identify fractal W’s and M’s may I suggest you utilize a public Williams Fractal tool to accompany this indicator script.
Due to the scalping nature of this tool it will be best used on all time frames from 1min up to 4hrs.
Each measured line is customizable to your liking. If you wish to see less you can unclick individual measurements. I suggest leaving the “Baseline” and each “.618%” line active.
You can also change the color of the lines if you wish.
