Williams Gator Oscillator 2Based on @Petros Williams Gator Oscillator script
Modifed by @PolarSolar - fix histogramm offset to original and added different colors to more understanding Gator histogramm
The Gator Oscillator histogram above zero shows the absolute difference between blue and red lines of Alligator indicator,
while histogram below zero shows the absolute difference between red and green lines.
There are green and red bars on the Gator Oscillator histograms.
A green bar appears when its value is higher than the value of the previous bar.
A red bars appears when its value is lower than the value of the previous bar.
Gator Oscillator helps to better visualize the upcoming changes in the trends: to know when Alligator sleeps, eats, fills out and is about to go to sleep.

Alligator + Fractals + Divergent & Squat Bars + Signal AlertsThe indicator includes Williams Alligator, Williams Fractals, Divergent Bars, Market Facilitation Index, Highest and Lowest Bars, maximum and minimum peak of Awesome Oscillator, and signal alerts based on Bill Williams' Profitunity strategy.
MFI and Awesome Oscillator
According to the Market Facilitation Index Oscillator, the Squat bar is colored blue, all other bars are colored according to the Awesome Oscillator color, except for the Fake bars, colored with a lighter AO color. In the indicator settings, you can enable the display of "Green" bars (in the "Green Bars > Show" field). In the indicator style settings, you can disable changing the color of bars in accordance with the AO color (in the "AO bars" field), including changing the color for Fake bars (in the "Fake AO bars" field).
MFI is calculated using the formula: (high - low) / volume.
A Squat bar means that, compared to the previous bar, its MFI has decreased and at the same time its volume has increased, i.e. MFI < previous bar and volume > previous bar. A sign of a possible price reversal, so this is a particularly important signal.
A Fake bar is the opposite of a Squat bar and means that, compared to the previous bar, its MFI has increased and at the same time its volume has decreased, i.e. MFI > previous bar and volume < previous bar.
A "Green" bar means that, compared to the previous bar, its MFI has increased and at the same time its volume has increased, i.e. MFI > previous bar and volume > previous bar. A sign of trend continuation. But a more significant trend confirmation or warning of a possible reversal is the Awesome Oscillator, which measures market momentum by calculating the difference between the 5 Period and 34 Period Simple Moving Averages (SMA 5 - SMA 34) based on the midpoints of the bars (hl2). Therefore, by default, the "Green" bars and their opposite "Fade" bars are colored according to the color of the Awesome Oscillator.
According to Bill Williams' Profitunity strategy, using the Awesome Oscillator, the third Elliott wave is determined by the maximum peak of AO in the range from 100 to 140 bars. The presence of divergence between the maximum AO peak and the subsequent lower AO peak in this interval also warns of a possible correction, especially if the AO crosses the zero line between these AO peaks. Therefore, the chart additionally displays the prices of the highest and lowest bars, as well as the maximum or minimum peak of AO in the interval of 140 bars from the last bar. In the indicator settings, you can hide labels, lines, change the number of bars and any parameters for the AO indicator - method (SMA, Smoothed SMA, EMA and others), length, source (open, high, low, close, hl2 and others).
Bullish Divergent bar
🟢 A buy signal (Long) is a Bullish Divergent bar with a green circle displayed above it if such a bar simultaneously meets all of the following conditions:
The high of the bar is below all lines of the Alligator indicator.
The closing price of the bar is above its middle, i.e. close > (high + low) / 2.
The low of the bar is below the low of 2 previous bars or below the low of one previous bar, and the low of the second previous bar is a lower fractal (▼). By default, Divergent bars are not displayed, the low of which is lower than the low of only one previous bar and the low of the 2nd previous bar is not a lower fractal (▼), but you can enable the display of any Divergent bars in the indicator settings (by setting the value "no" in the " field Divergent Bars > Filtration").
The following conditions strengthen the Bullish Divergent bar signal:
The opening price of the bar, as well as the closing price, is higher than its middle, i.e. Open > (high + low) / 2.
The high of the bar is below all lines of the open Alligator indicator, i.e. the green line (Lips) is below the red line (Teeth) and the red line is below the blue line (Jaw). In this case, the color of the circle above the Bullish Divergent bar is dark green.
Squat Divergent bar.
The bar following the Bullish Divergent bar corresponds to the green color of the Awesome Oscillator.
Divergence on Awesome Oscillator.
Formation of the lower fractal (▼), in which the low of the Divergent bar is the peak of the fractal.
Bearish Divergent bar
🔴 A signal to sell (Short) is a Bearish Divergent bar under which a red circle is displayed if such a bar simultaneously meets all the following conditions:
The low of the bar is above all lines of the Alligator indicator.
The closing price of the bar is below its middle, i.e. close < (high + low) / 2.
The high of the bar is higher than the high of 2 previous bars or higher than the high of one previous bar, and the high of the second previous bar is an upper fractal (▲). By default, Divergent bars are not displayed, the high of which is higher than the high of only one previous bar and the high of the 2nd previous bar is not an upper fractal (▲), but you can enable the display of any Divergent bars in the indicator settings (by setting the value "no" in the " field Divergent Bars > Filtration").
The following conditions strengthen the Bearish Divergent bar signal:
The opening price of the bar, as well as the closing price, is below its middle, i.e. open < (high + low) / 2.
The low of the bar is above all lines of the open Alligator indicator, i.e. the green line (Lips) is above the red line (Teeth) and the red line is above the blue line (Jaw). In this case, the color of the circle under the Bearish Divergent bar is dark red.
Squat Divergent bar.
The bar following the Bearish Divergent bar corresponds to the red color of the Awesome Oscillator.
Divergence on Awesome Oscillator.
Formation of the upper fractal (▲), in which the high of the Divergent bar is the peak of the fractal.
Alligator lines crossing
Bars crossing the green line (Lips) of the open Alligator indicator is the first warning of a possible correction (price rollback) if one of the following conditions is met:
If the bar closed below the Lips line, which is above the Teeth line, and the Teeth line is above the Jaw line, while the closing price of the previous bar is above the Lips line.
If the bar closed above the Lips line, which is below the Teeth line, and the Teeth line is below the Jaw line, while the closing price of the previous bar is below the Lips line.
The intersection of all open Alligator lines by bars is a sign of a deep correction and a warning of a possible trend change.
Frequent intersection of Alligator lines with each other is a sign of a sideways trend (flat).
Signal Alerts
To receive notifications about signals when creating an alert, you must select the condition "Any alert() function is call", in which case notifications will arrive in the following format:
D — timeframe, for example: D, 4H, 15m.
🟢 BDB⎾ - a signal for a Bullish Divergent bar to buy (Long), triggers once after the bar closes and includes additional signals:
/// — if Alligator is open.
⏉ — if the opening price of the bar, as well as the closing price, is above its middle.
+ Squat 🔷 - Squat bar or + Green ↑ - "Green" bar or + Fake ↓ - Fake bar.
+ AO 🟩 - if after the Divergent bar closes, the oscillator color change for the next bar corresponds the green color of the Awesome Oscillator. ┴/┬ — AO above/below the zero line. ∇ — if there is divergence on AO in the interval of 140 bars from the last bar.
🔴 BDB⎿ - a signal for a Bearish Divergent bar to sell (Short), triggers once after the bar closes and includes additional signals:
/// — if Alligator is open.
⏊ — if the opening price of the bar, as well as the closing price, is below its middle.
+ Squat 🔷 - Squat bar or + Green ↑ - "Green" bar or + Fake ↓ - Fake bar.
+ AO 🟥 - if after the Divergent bar closes, the oscillator color change for the next bar corresponds to the red color of the Awesome Oscillator. ┴/┬ — AO above/below the zero line. ∇ — if there is divergence on AO in the interval of 140 bars from the last bar.
Alert for bars crossing the green line (Lips) of the open Alligator indicator (can be disabled in the indicator settings in the "Alligator > Enable crossing lips alerts" field):
🔴 Crossing Lips ↓ - if the bar closed below the Lips line, which is above than the other lines, while the closing price of the previous bar is above the Lips line.
🟢 Crossing Lips ↑ - if the bar closed above the Lips line, which is below the other lines, while the closing price of the previous bar is below the Lips line.
The fractal signal is triggered after the second bar closes, completing the formation of the fractal, if alerts about fractals are enabled in the indicator settings (the "Fractals > Enable alerts" field):
🟢 Fractal ▲ - upper (Bearish) fractal.
🔴 Fractal ▼ — lower (Bullish) fractal.
⚪️ Fractal ▲/▼ - both upper and lower fractal.
↳ (H=high - L=low) = difference.
If you redirect notifications to a webhook URL, for example, to a Telegram bot, then you need to set the notification template for the webhook in the indicator settings in the "Webhook > Message" field (contains a tooltip with an example), in which you just need to specify the text {{message}}, which will be automatically replaced with the alert text with a ticker and a link to TradingView.
‼️ A signal is not a call to action, but only a reason to analyze the chart to make a decision based on the rules of your strategy.
***
Индикатор включает в себя Williams Alligator, Williams Fractals, Дивергентные бары, Market Facilitation Index, самый высокий и самый низкий бары, максимальный и минимальный пик Awesome Oscillator, а также оповещения о сигналах на основе стратегии Profitunity Билла Вильямса.
MFI и Awesome Oscillator
В соответствии с осциллятором Market Facilitation Index Приседающий бар окрашен в синий цвет, все остальные бары окрашены в соответствии с цветом Awesome Oscillator, кроме Фальшивых баров, которые окрашены более светлым цветом AO. В настройках индикатора вы можете включить отображение "Зеленых" баров (в поле "Green Bars > Show"). В настройках стиля индикатора вы можете выключить изменение цвета баров в соответствии с цветом AO (в поле "AO bars"), в том числе изменить цвет для Фальшивых баров (в поле "Fake AO bars").
MFI рассчитывается по формуле: (high - low) / volume.
Приседающий бар означает, что по сравнению с предыдущим баром его MFI снизился и в тоже время вырос его объем, т.е. MFI < предыдущего бара и объем > предыдущего бара. Признак возможного разворота цены, поэтому это особенно важный сигнал.
Фальшивый бар является противоположностью Приседающему бару и означает, что по сравнению с предыдущим баром его MFI увеличился и в тоже время снизился его объем, т.е. MFI > предыдущего бара и объем < предыдущего бара.
"Зеленый" бар означает, что по сравнению с предыдущим баром его MFI увеличился и в тоже время вырос его объем, т.е. MFI > предыдущего бара и объем > предыдущего бара. Признак продолжения тренда. Но более значимым подтверждением тренда или предупреждением о возможном развороте является Awesome Oscillator, который измеряет движущую силу рынка путем вычисления разницы между 5 Периодной и 34 Периодной Простыми Скользящими Средними (SMA 5 - SMA 34) по средним точкам баров (hl2). Поэтому по умолчанию "Зеленые" бары и противоположные им "Увядающие" бары окрашены в соответствии с цветом Awesome Oscillator.
По стратегии Profitunity Билла Вильямса с помощью осциллятора Awesome Oscillator определяется третья волна Эллиота по максимальному пику AO в интервале от 100 до 140 баров. Наличие дивергенции между максимальным пиком AO и следующим за ним более низким пиком AO в этом интервале также предупреждает о возможной коррекции, особенно если AO переходит через нулевую линию между этими пиками AO. Поэтому на графике дополнительно отображаются цены самого высокого и самого низкого баров, а также максимальный или минимальный пик АО в интервале 140 баров от последнего бара. В настройках индикатора вы можете скрыть метки, линии, изменить количество баров и любые параметры для индикатора AO – метод (SMA, Smoothed SMA, EMA и другие), длину, источник (open, high, low, close, hl2 и другие).
Бычий Дивергентный бар
🟢 Сигналом на покупку (Long) является Бычий Дивергентный бар над которым отображается зеленый круг, если такой бар соответствует одновременно всем следующим условиям:
Максимум бара ниже всех линий индикатора Alligator.
Цена закрытия бара выше его середины, т.е. close > (high + low) / 2.
Минимум бара ниже минимума 2-х предыдущих баров или ниже минимума одного предыдущего бара, а минимум второго предыдущего бара является нижним фракталом (▼). По умолчанию не отображаются Дивергентные бары, минимум которых ниже минимума только одного предыдущего бара и минимум 2-го предыдущего бара не является нижним фракталом (▼), но вы можете включить отображение любых Дивергентных баров в настройках индикатора (установив значение "no" в поле "Divergent Bars > Filtration").
Усилением сигнала Бычьего Дивергентного бара являются следующие условия:
Цена открытия бара, как и цена закрытия, выше его середины, т.е. Open > (high + low) / 2.
Максимум бара ниже всех линий открытого индикатора Alligator, т.е. зеленая линия (Lips) ниже красной линии (Teeth) и красная линия ниже синей линии (Jaw). В этом случае цвет круга над Бычьим Дивергентным баром окрашен в темно-зеленый цвет.
Приседающий Дивергентный бар.
Бар, следующий за Бычьим Дивергентным баром, соответствует зеленому цвету Awesome Oscillator.
Дивергенция на Awesome Oscillator.
Образование нижнего фрактала (▼), у которого минимум Дивергентного бара является пиком фрактала.
Медвежий Дивергентный бар
🔴 Сигналом на продажу (Short) является Медвежий Дивергентный бар под которым отображается красный круг, если такой бар соответствует одновременно всем следующим условиям:
Минимум бара выше всех линий индикатора Alligator.
Цена закрытия бара ниже его середины, т.е. close < (high + low) / 2.
Максимум бара выше маскимума 2-х предыдущих баров или выше максимума одного предыдущего бара, а максимум второго предыдущего бара является верхним фракталом (▲). По умолчанию не отображаются Дивергентные бары, максимум которых выше максимума только одного предыдущего бара и максимум 2-го предыдущего бара не является верхним фракталом (▲), но вы можете включить отображение любых Дивергентных баров в настройках индикатора (установив значение "no" в поле "Divergent Bars > Filtration").
Усилением сигнала Медвежьего Дивергентного бара являются следующие условия:
Цена открытия бара, как и цена закрытия, ниже его середины, т.е. open < (high + low) / 2.
Минимум бара выше всех линий открытого индикатора Alligator, т.е. зеленая линия (Lips) выше красной линии (Teeth) и красная линия выше синей линии (Jaw). В этом случае цвет круга под Медвежьим Дивергентным Баром окрашен в темно-красный цвет.
Приседающий Дивергентный бар.
Бар, следующий за Медвежьим Дивергентным баром, соответствует красному цвету Awesome Oscillator.
Дивергенция на Awesome Oscillator.
Образование верхнего фрактала (▲), у которого максимум Дивергентного бара является пиком фрактала.
Пересечение линий Alligator
Пересечение барами зеленой линии (Lips) открытого индикатора Alligator является первым предупреждением о возможной коррекции (откате цены) при выполнении одного из следующих условий:
Если бар закрылся ниже линии Lips, которая выше линии Teeth, а линия Teeth выше линии Jaw, при этом цена закрытия предыдущего бара находится выше линии Lips.
Если бар закрылся выше линии Lips, которая ниже линии Teeth, а линия Teeth ниже линии Jaw, при этом цена закрытия предыдущего бара находится ниже линии Lips.
Пересечение барами всех линий открытого Alligator является признаком глубокой коррекции и предупреждением о возможной смене тренда.
Частое пересечение линий Alligator между собой является признаком бокового тренда (флэт).
Оповещения о сигналах
Для получения уведомлений о сигналах при создании оповещения необходимо выбрать условие "При любом вызове функции alert()", в таком случае уведомления будут приходить в следующем формате:
D — таймфрейм, например: D, 4H, 15m.
🟢 BDB⎾ — сигнал Бычьего Дивергентного бара на покупку (Long), срабатывает один раз после закрытия бара и включает дополнительные сигналы:
/// — если Alligator открыт.
⏉ — если цена открытия бара, как и цена закрытия, выше его середины.
+ Squat 🔷 — Приседающий бар или + Green ↑ — "Зеленый" бар или + Fake ↓ — Фальшивый бар.
+ AO 🟩 — если после закрытия Дивергентного бара, изменение цвета осциллятора для следующего бара соответствует зеленому цвету Awesome Oscillator. ┴/┬ — AO выше/ниже нулевой линии. ∇ — если есть дивергенция на AO в интервале 140 баров от последнего бара.
🔴 BDB⎿ — сигнал Медвежьего Дивергентного бара на продажу (Short), срабатывает один раз после закрытия бара и включает дополнительные сигналы:
/// — если Alligator открыт.
⏊ — если цена открытия бара, как и цена закрытия, ниже его середины.
+ Squat 🔷 — Приседающий бар или + Green ↑ — "Зеленый" бар или + Fake ↓ — Фальшивый бар.
+ AO 🟥 — если после закрытия Дивергентного бара, изменение цвета осциллятора для следующего бара соответствует красному цвету Awesome Oscillator. ┴/┬ — AO выше/ниже нулевой линии. ∇ — если есть дивергенция на AO в интервале 140 баров от последнего бара.
Сигнал пересечения барами зеленой линии (Lips) открытого индикатора Alligator (можно отключить в настройках индикатора в поле "Alligator > Enable crossing lips alerts"):
🔴 Crossing Lips ↓ — если бар закрылся ниже линии Lips, которая выше остальных линий, при этом цена закрытия предыдущего бара находится выше линии Lips.
🟢 Crossing Lips ↑ — если бар закрылся выше линии Lips, которая ниже остальных линий, при этом цена закрытия предыдущего бара находится ниже линии Lips.
Сигнал фрактала срабатывает после закрытия второго бара, завершающего формирование фрактала, если оповещения о фракталах включены в настройках индикатора (поле "Fractals > Enable alerts"):
🟢 Fractal ▲ — верхний (Медвежий) фрактал.
🔴 Fractal ▼ — нижний (Бычий) фрактал.
⚪️ Fractal ▲/▼ — одновременно верхний и нижний фрактал.
↳ (H=high - L=low) = разница.
Если вы перенаправляете оповещения на URL вебхука, например, в бота Telegram, то вам необходимо установить шаблон оповещения для вебхука в настройках индикатора в поле "Webhook > Message" (содержит подсказку с примером), в котором в качестве текста сообщения достаточно указать текст {{message}}, который будет автоматически заменен на текст оповещения с тикером и ссылкой на TradingView.
‼️ Сигнал — это не призыв к действию, а лишь повод проанализировать график для принятия решения на основе правил вашей стратегии.
Composite MomentumComposite Momentum Indicator - Enhancing Trading Insights with RSI & Williams %R
The Composite Momentum Indicator is a powerful technical tool that combines the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Williams %R indicators from TradingView. This unique composite indicator offers enhanced insights into market momentum and provides traders with a comprehensive perspective on price movements. By leveraging the strengths of both RSI and Williams %R, the Composite Momentum Indicator offers distinct advantages over a simple RSI calculation.
1. Comprehensive Momentum Analysis:
The Composite Momentum Indicator integrates the RSI and Williams %R indicators to provide a comprehensive analysis of market momentum. It takes into account both the strength of recent price gains and losses (RSI) and the relationship between the current closing price and the highest-high and lowest-low price range (Williams %R). By combining these two momentum indicators, traders gain a more holistic view of market conditions.
2. Increased Accuracy:
While the RSI is widely used for measuring overbought and oversold conditions, it can sometimes generate false signals in certain market environments. The Composite Momentum Indicator addresses this limitation by incorporating the Williams %R, which focuses on the price range and can offer more accurate signals in volatile market conditions. This combination enhances the accuracy of momentum analysis, allowing traders to make more informed trading decisions.
3. Improved Timing of Reversals:
One of the key advantages of the Composite Momentum Indicator is its ability to provide improved timing for trend reversals. By incorporating both RSI and Williams %R, traders can identify potential turning points more effectively. The Composite Momentum Indicator offers an early warning system for identifying overbought and oversold conditions and potential trend shifts, helping traders seize opportunities with better timing.
4. Enhanced Divergence Analysis:
Divergence analysis is a popular technique among traders, and the Composite Momentum Indicator strengthens this analysis further. By comparing the RSI and Williams %R within the composite calculation, traders can identify divergences between the two indicators more easily. Divergence between the RSI and Williams %R can signal potential trend reversals or the weakening of an existing trend, providing valuable insights for traders.
5. Customizable Moving Average:
The Composite Momentum Indicator also features a customizable moving average (MA), allowing traders to further fine-tune their analysis. By incorporating the MA, traders can smooth out the composite momentum line and identify longer-term trends. This additional layer of customization enhances the versatility of the indicator, catering to various trading styles and timeframes.
The Composite Momentum Indicator, developed using the popular TradingView indicators RSI and Williams %R, offers a powerful tool for comprehensive momentum analysis. By combining the strengths of both indicators, traders can gain deeper insights into market conditions, improve accuracy, enhance timing for reversals, and leverage divergence analysis. With the added customization of the moving average, the Composite Momentum Indicator provides traders with a versatile and effective tool to make more informed trading decisions.
12&50 RSI + %R2/50 RSI+ %R is a PineScript indicator that combines two popular technical indicators, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the Williams %R. The indicator plots two lines, K and D, which represent the smoothed moving averages of the RSI. It also plots the RSI with a 60-period length and the Williams %R with a 21-period length. The indicator can be used to identify overbought and oversold conditions, as well as potential reversals.
Here are some of the key features of the script:
It uses two different RSI lengths to provide a more comprehensive view of the market.
It plots the Williams %R, which can be used to identify overbought and oversold conditions.
It includes overbought and oversold levels to help traders identify potential entry and exit points.

[blackcat] L3 Composite MACD-KDJ-RSI-WR-DMI Trading SystemLevel: 3
Background
The moving average convergence / divergence (MACD) indicator is a pulse oscillator that is mainly used to trade trends. Although it is an oscillator, it is not typically used to identify overbought or oversold conditions. It appears in the diagram as two lines that oscillate without limits. The crossing of the two lines provides trading signals similar to a system with two moving averages.
The KDJ indicator is a technical indicator used to analyze and predict changes in stock performance and the price patterns of a traded asset. The KDJ indicator is also known as the random index. It is a very useful technical indicator that is most commonly used in short term stock market trend analysis. KDJ is a derived form of the Stochastic Oscillator Indicator with the only difference that an additional line is called the J-line. Values of% K and% D indicate whether the security is overbought (over 80) or oversold (under 20). The moments when% K exceeds% D are the moments to sell or buy. The J line represents the deviation of the% D value from% K. The value of J can exceed for the% K and% D lines on the graph.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) developed by J. Welles Wilder is a pulse oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. The RSI hovers between zero and 100. Traditionally, the RSI is considered overbought when it is above 70 and oversold when below 30. Signals can be generated by looking for divergences and error fluctuations.
Williams% R, also known as the Williams Percent Range, is a type of momentum indicator that moves between 0 and -100 and measures overbought and oversold levels. The Williams% R can be used to find entry and exit points in the market. The indicator is very similar to the stochastic oscillator and is used in the same way.
The Directional Movement Index (DMI) is an indicator developed by J. Welles Wilder in 1978 to determine in which direction asset prices are moving. The indicator does this by comparing previous highs and lows and drawing two lines: a positive movement line (+DI) and a negative movement line (-DI). The optional third line is called "Directional Movement (DX)" and it shows the difference between the two lines. When +DI is higher than -DI, the upward pressure on the price is greater than the downward pressure. If -DI is higher than +DI, the price will have greater downward pressure. This indicator can help traders assess the trend direction. Crosses between lines are sometimes used as buying and selling signals.
Function
L3 Composite MACD-KDJ-RSI-WR-DMI Trading System is a simple trading system composed of MACD-KDJ-RSI-WR-DMI together. It can produce 6 types of long entries and 3 types of short entries. It utilizes divergence effect from MACD, KDJ and RSI to detect trend reversal. 6 types of Bottom and top divergence labels are displayed in the chart together with "BUY" and "SELL".
NOTE:In order to make the actual label of the chart more clear, this script does not add stop loss and take profit functions and according labels.

Level 1 : interesting script snippets or distinctive improvement from classic indicators or strategy. Level 1 scripts can usually appear in more complex indicators as a function module or element.
Level 2 : composite indicator/strategy. By selecting or combining several independent or dependent functions or sub indicators in proper way, the composite script exhibits a resonance phenomenon which can filter out noise or fake trading signal to enhance trading confidence level.
Level 3 : comprehensive indicator/strategy. They are simple trading systems based on my strategies. They are commonly containing several or all of entry signal, close signal, stop loss, take profit, re-entry, risk management, and position sizing techniques. Even some interesting fundamental and mass psychological aspects are incorporated.
Level 4 : script snippets or functions that do not disclose source code. Interesting element that can reveal market laws and work as raw material for indicators and strategies. If you find Level 1~2 scripts are helpful, Level 4 is a private version that took me far more efforts to develop.
Level 5 : indicator/strategy that do not disclose source code. private version of Level 3 script with my accumulated script processing skills or a large number of custom functions. I had a private function library built in past two years. Level 5 scripts use many of them to achieve private trading strategy.
SFC Smart Money Manipulation - Time, Advanced Market StructureThis indicator shows the market structure in more advanced way and different time cycles.
Markets moves in cycles and swings. The indicator will help to determine these cycles and swings by time and price. These are the two columns of the market understanding. The third one is volume/ momentum, but it will not be discussed here.
Advanced Market Structure
According to ICT and Larry Williams Market Structure is not only Highs and Lows.
They present more advanced understanding of the MS:
-Short Term Highs/ Lows
-Intermediate Term Highs/ Lows
-Long Term Highs/ Lows
Rules of how to determine the Swing Points according to Larry Williams:
"A market has made a short-term low when we have a day (or bar if you are using different time periods) that has a higher low on both sides. By the same token a short-term high will be a day (or bar) that has lower bars on both sides of it."
"A short-term high with lower short-term highs on both sides is an intermediate- term high. By the same token, a short-term low with higher short-term lows on both sides is an intermediate-term low."
"An intermediate-term high with lower intermediate-term highs on both sides of it is just naturally a long-term high by our definition, thanks to understanding market structure.
An intermediate-term low with higher intermediate-term lows on both sides of it is just naturally a long-term low by our definition, thanks to understanding market structure."
If the Highs and Lows are labeled properly there is high probability to predict the next High or Low. In this way the trader will know how the current trend is changing and what kind of retracement is coming - deep or shallow.
Timing
Market moves in time cycles.
There is a theory that the swings are equal by time and length. This is not always the case, but very very often.
Indicator time features:
- Swing Trading days - how many time market needed to form a swing. Only Long term(main) Swings are measured. This will help trader to label T-formations.
" T Formations is cyclically related for formations that can be drawn to project the time frame of likely turning points. Basically T-formations are based on the concept that the time distance between the starting low/high of the cyclical wave and its peak is likely to be subsequently repeated between that peak and the final low/high of that cycle."
- Seasonality - theoretically an asset should go up or down in particular yearly quarter. Practically the direction not always match to quarters. Thats why the indicator shows the theoretical seasonal direction and historical real direction.
Seasonal direction is automatically displayed or XAUUSD, XAGUSD, EURUSD, AUDUSD, GBPUSD. There is a ways to set the seasonality manually.
- Earnings Season - This time is very important for Stocks and Indices. Most of the time the assets are in bullish trend during the Earnings Seasons.
- Monthly separator - Shows the monthly time cycle
- Gold bullish months - There are studies on Gold market. They shows that Gold is very bullish in particular months. These are displayed.
The indicator works only on Daily Time Frame.

BEST ABCD Pattern ScreenerHello ladies and gentlemen traders
Continuing deeper and stronger with the screeners' educational series one more time.
This one is heavy crazy mega cool (pardon my french).
I - Concept
I present to you, ladies and gentlemen, the first screener for harmonic patterns.
Starting with an ACBD pattern screener this time!!
I used the calculations from Ricardo Santo's script
In short, he's using fractals (regular or Bill Williams ) for the pattern calculations. A masterpiece !!!
The screener will show in 1 consolidated chart the ABCD patterns for 5 selected assets. Could be stocks, forex, crypto, whatever you feel like making money with
II - Definitions
The ABCD pattern ( AB=CD ) is one of the classic chart patterns which is repeated over and over again.
The ABCD pattern shows perfect harmony between price and time.
More info here
The Williams Fractal is an indicator, developed by Bill Williams, that aims to detect reversal points (highs and lows) and marks them with arrows.
Up fractals and down fractals have specific shapes. The Williams Fractal indicator helps users determine in which direction price will develop
Source: www.tradingview.com
III - How did I set the screener
The visual signals are as follow:
- square: whenever there is an ABCD pattern detected
Then the colors are:
- green when a bullish pattern is detected
- red when a bearish pattern is detected
🔸 The script screenshot shows two red squares matching two ABCD bearish pattern from the above panel. As the chart is showing APPL, I highlighted where the screener mentioned the fruit stock ( APPLE, pun, bad joke, Dave out...)
🔸 I tried to make it as clear as I could with red arrows
Once again, we pushed together the limits of pine script beyond of what we thought was possible, beyond the realm of this world, reaching finally the dreamt pine script heaven (am I going too far? feel free to tell me)
Best regards,

Kijun Trend IndicatorName: Kijun Trend Indicator
Category: Trend Analysis
Timeframe: All timeframes
Suggested usage: In a trending market, to understand when it is good to enter short (red line) and when to enter long (blue line).
Technical Analysis: The original idea was taken from Larry Williams: an uptrend is identified when the price is above an 18-period simple moving average (SMA) and when at least two candles do not touch the simple moving average with their lows. The opposite is true for a downtrend.
Corrado Rondelli has therefore reinterpreted with Ichimoku aka "ichimokized" replacing the 18-period Simple Moving Average with the 26-period Kijun - as per the original Ichimoku settings.
In order to make the indicator more flexible an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) has also been added.
The indicator plots the chosen line that becomes red when it is good to enter short and blue when it is good to enter long.
Configuration:
- Length: period to be used to calculate the line.
- Type: the line type that can be the Kijun (26-period) or SMA/EMA (18-period)
QuantMEX Force OscillatorsQuantMEX Force Oscillators
Objective: to identify the strength of the asset price trend based on several oscillators in order to generate a buy and sell signal.
Oscillators used: Relative Strength Index , Stochastic , Commodity Channel Index , Awesome Oscillator , Momentum , MACD , Stochastic RSI , Williams % and Ultimate Oscillator ( soon we will select more suitable oscillators for this indicator ).
Parameters and optimization: the simplicity of this indicator's functionality consists of optimizing only the percentage of the buying force and the percentage of the selling force instead of optimizing each parameter of the oscillators used. As a standard parameter, we use 70% for both sides, when the strength of the indicator is greater than or equal to 70%, the buy or sell signal is generated.
Data panel: the panel is divided into three parts, the first part makes it possible to analyze in real time the performance of the oscillators for the current graph, the second part the possibility to analyze the buying and selling forces in real time for the current graph and in the third part , the multi time frame feature allows you to analyze the forces in the times of 1 minute, 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, 1 day, 1 week and 1 month ( the green color indicates buying strength and the red color indicates selling strength ).
It is recommended to use the signal after closing the current bar.

Larry Williams Strategies IndicatorThis indicator is a trend following indicator. It plots some of the trend following strategies described by Larry Williams in his book 'Long Term Secrets to Short Term Trading'. Below are types of trend following strategies you can trade using this indicator. These are notes taken directly from Larry Williams' book.
Short Term Low Strategy
Short Term Low - Any daily low with higher lows on each side of it.
Intermediate Term Low – Any short term low with higher short term lows on each side of it.
Long Term Low – Any intermediate term low with higher intermediate term lows on each side of it.
Conceptual pattern for best buying opportunity is when forming an intermediate term low higher than the last intermediate term low.
This setup can be used on all time frames. However since Larry Williams usually trades the daily chart, the daily chart is probably the best timeframe to trade using this strategy.
Entry point – High of the day that has a higher high on the right side of it.
(My interpretation: price crossing above the high of the previous day is the buy signal)
Target – Markets have a strong tendency to rally above the last intermediate term high by the same amount it moved from the last intermediate term high to the lowest point prior to advancing to new highs.
Trailing Stop – Set stop to most recent short term low, move up as new short term lows are formed. Can also use formation of next intermediate term high as an exit point.
A 'run' to the upside is over when price fails to move higher the next day and falls below the prior day's low.
Short Term High Strategy
Short Term High - Any daily high with lower highs on each side of it.
Intermediate Term High – Any short term high with lower short term highs on each side of it.
Long Term High – Any intermediate term high with lower intermediate term highs on each side of it.
Conceptual pattern for best selling opportunity is when forming an intermediate term high lower than the last intermediate term high.
This setup can be used on all time frames. However since Larry Williams usually trades the daily chart, the daily chart is probably the best timeframe to trade using this strategy.
Entry point – Low of the day that has a lower low on the right side of it.
(My interpretation: price crossing below the low of the previous day is the sell short signal)
Target – Markets have a strong tendency to fall below the last intermediate term low by the same amount it moved from the last intermediate term low to the highest point prior to declining to new lows.
Trailing Stop – Set stop to most recent short term high, move down as new short term highs are formed. Can also use formation of next intermediate term low as an exit point.
A 'run' to the downside is over when price fails to move lower the next day and rises above the prior day's high.
Trend Reversals
A trend change from down to up occurs when a short term high is exceeded on the upside, a trend change from up to down is identified by price going below the most recent low.
Can take these signals to make trades, but it is best to filter them with a confirmation or edge such as Trading Day of the Week, Trading Day of the Month, trendlines, etc. to cut down on false signals.
Three Bar High/Low System
Calculate a three bar moving average of the highs and a three bar moving average of the lows.
Strategy is to buy at the at the price of the three bar moving average of the lows - if the trend is positive according to the swing point trend identification technique - and take profits at the three bar moving average of the highs.
Selling is just the opposite. Sell short at the three bar moving average of the highs and take profits at the three bar moving average of the lows, using the trend identification technique above for confirmation.
This strategy can work on any timeframe, but was described as a daytrading system by Larry Williams.

Key Features of WillStop Pro
Dynamic Stop Levels : WillStop Pro calculates real-time stop levels for both long (buy) and short (sell) positions. This helps you protect your profits and reduce risk. The stop levels adjust based on the current market environment, making them more adaptable compared to fixed stop levels.
Advanced Stop Settings : There are optional settings to make the stop calculations more advanced, which take into consideration previous price movements to refine where the stops should be placed. These settings provide more precise control over your trades.
Break Signals and Alerts : The indicator provides visual signals, like arrows, to show when a stop level has been broken. This makes it easier for you to identify possible reversals and understand when the market direction is changing.
Comprehensive Table Display : A small table on the chart shows the current trend, the stop level, and whether advanced mode is active. This simple display provides an overview of the market, making decision-making easier.
Based on Larry Williams' Methodology : WillStop Pro builds upon Larry Williams' ideas, which are designed to capture major market trends while managing risk effectively. It provides a systematic way to follow these strategies without requiring deep technical analysis skills.
How Are Stop Levels Calculated? (For Advanced Users)
The WillStop Pro indicator determines stop levels by evaluating highs, lows, and closing prices over a specific lookback period. It uses this information to identify key points that justify adjusting your stop level, and there are separate approaches for both long and short positions.
Below, we explain the mathematical logic behind the stop calculations, along with some code snippets to give advanced users a clearer understanding.
For Long Stops (buy positions): The indicator looks for the highest closing price within the lookback period and continues until it finds three valid bars that meet certain criteria. Stops are adjusted to skip bars that have consecutive upward closes to ensure that the stop is placed at a level that offers solid support. Specifically, the function iterates over recent bars to determine the highest closing value, and checks for specific conditions before finalizing the stop level. Here is an excerpt of the relevant code:
getTrueLow(idx) => math.min(low , close )
findStopLevels() =>
float highestClose = close
int highestCloseIndex = 0
for i = 0 to lookback
if close > highestClose
highestClose := close
highestCloseIndex := i
// Logic to adjust based on up close skipping
int longCount = 0
int longCurrentIndex = highestCloseIndex
while longCount < 3 and longCurrentIndex < 100
if not isInsideBar(longCurrentIndex)
longCount += 1
longCurrentIndex += 1
// Determine the lowest low for the stop level
float longStopLevel = high * 2
for i = searchIndex to highestCloseIndex
longStopLevel := math.min(longStopLevel, getTrueLow(i))
// Apply offset
longStopLevel := longStopLevel - (offsetTicks * tickSize)
In this code snippet, the function findStopLevels() calculates the long stop level by first identifying the highest close within the lookback period and then finding a suitable support level while skipping certain conditions, such as inside bars or consecutive upward closes. Finally, the user-defined offset ( offsetTicks ) is applied to determine the stop level.
For Short Stops (sell positions): Similarly, the indicator finds the lowest closing price within the lookback period and then identifies three bars that fit the conditions for a short stop. It avoids using bars with consecutive down closes to help find a more robust resistance level. Here's a relevant code snippet:
getTrueHigh(idx) => math.max(high , close )
findStopLevels() =>
float lowestClose = close
int lowestCloseIndex = 0
for i = 0 to lookback
if close < lowestClose
lowestClose := close
lowestCloseIndex := i
// Logic to adjust based on down close skipping
int shortCount = 0
int shortCurrentIndex = lowestCloseIndex
while shortCount < 3 and shortCurrentIndex < 100
if not isInsideBar(shortCurrentIndex)
shortCount += 1
shortCurrentIndex += 1
// Determine the highest high for the stop level
float shortStopLevel = 0
for i = searchIndex to lowestCloseIndex
shortStopLevel := math.max(shortStopLevel, getTrueHigh(i))
// Apply offset
shortStopLevel := shortStopLevel + (offsetTicks * tickSize)
Here, findStopLevels() calculates the short stop level by finding the lowest closing price within the lookback period. It then determines the highest value that acts as a resistance level, excluding bars that do not fit certain criteria.
Volume Confirmation for Alert Accuracy : To further enhance the stop level accuracy, volume is used as a confirmation filter. The average volume (volAvg) is calculated over a 20-period moving average, and alerts are only generated if the volume exceeds a defined threshold (volMultiplier). This ensures that price movements are significant enough to consider as meaningful signals.
volAvg = ta.sma(volume, 20)
isVolumeConfirmed() =>
result = requireVolumeConfirmation ? volume > (volAvg * volMultiplier) : true
result
This additional logic ensures that stop level breaks or adjustments are not triggered during periods of low trading activity, thus enhancing the reliability of the generated signals.
These calculations are at the core of WillStop Pro's ability to determine dynamic stop levels that respond effectively to market movements, helping traders manage risk by placing stops at levels that make sense given historical price and volume data.
How to Identify Opportunities with WillStop Pro
WillStop Pro provides various signals that help you decide when to enter or exit a trade:
When a Stop Level is Broken: If a stop level (support for long positions or resistance for short positions) is broken, it may indicate a reversal. WillStop Pro visually plots arrows whenever a stop level is breached, making it easy for you to see where changes might occur. This feature helps traders identify momentum shifts quickly.
Support and Resistance Levels: The indicator plots support and resistance levels, which show key zones to watch for opportunities. These levels often act as psychological barriers in the market, where price action may either reverse or stall temporarily.
Dynamic State Management: The indicator shifts between long and short states based on price action, providing real-time feedback. This helps traders stick to their trading plan without second-guessing the market.
A major advantage of WillStop Pro is that it responds well to changing market conditions. By identifying when key support or resistance levels break, it allows you to adjust your strategies and react to new opportunities accordingly. Whether the market is trending strongly or staying within a range, WillStop Pro provides valuable information to help guide your trades.
Setting Up Alerts
Alerts are an important feature in trading, especially when you can’t be in front of your charts all the time. WillStop Pro has been enhanced to include flexible alert settings to help you stay on top of your trades without constantly monitoring the charts.
Enable Alerts: There is a master switch to enable or disable all alerts. This way, you can control whether you want to be notified of events at any time.
Alert Frequency: Choose between receiving alerts Once Per Bar or Once Per Bar Close . This helps you manage the frequency of alerts and decide if you need real-time updates or want confirmation after a bar closes.
Break Alerts: These alerts notify you when a stop level has been broken. This can help you catch potential reversals or trading opportunities as soon as they happen.
Strong Break Alerts: Alerts are available for strong breaks, which occur when the price breaks stop levels with confirmation based on additional price, volume, and momentum criteria. These alerts help identify significant shifts in the market.
Level Change Alerts: These alerts tell you whenever a new stop level is calculated, keeping you updated about changes in market dynamics. You can set a Minimum Level Change % to ensure that alerts are only triggered when the stop level changes significantly.
Require Volume Confirmation: You can opt to receive alerts only if the volume is above a certain threshold. This confirmation helps reduce false signals by ensuring that significant price changes are backed by increased trading activity.
Volume Multiplier: The volume multiplier allows you to set a minimum volume requirement that must be met for an alert to trigger. This ensures that alerts are triggered only when there is sufficient trading interest.
Here is a part of the updated alert logic that has been implemented in the indicator:
// Alert on break conditions
if alertsEnabled
if alertOnBreaks
if longStopBroken and isVolumeConfirmed()
alert(createAlertMessage("Support Break - Short Signal", useAdvancedStops), alertFreq)
if shortStopBroken and isVolumeConfirmed()
alert(createAlertMessage("Resistance Break - Long Signal", useAdvancedStops), alertFreq)
// Strong break alerts
if alertOnStrongBreaks
if longStopBroken and isStrongBreak(false)
alert(createAlertMessage("Strong Support Break - Short Signal", useAdvancedStops), alertFreq)
if shortStopBroken and isStrongBreak(true)
alert(createAlertMessage("Strong Resistance Break - Long Signal", useAdvancedStops), alertFreq)
// Level change alerts
if alertOnLevelChanges and isSignificantChange() and isVolumeConfirmed()
alert(createAlertMessage("Significant Level Change", useAdvancedStops), alertFreq)
Setting alerts allows you to react to market changes without having to watch the charts constantly. Alerts are particularly helpful if you have other responsibilities and can’t be actively monitoring your trades all day.
Understanding the Table Display
The WillStop Pro indicator provides a status table that gives an overview of the current market state. Here’s what the table shows:
Indicator Status: The table indicates whether the indicator is in a LONG or SHORT state. This helps you quickly understand the market trend.
Stop Level: The active stop level is shown, whether it is acting as support (long) or resistance (short). This is important for knowing where to set your protective stops.
Mode: The table also displays whether the advanced calculation mode is being used. This keeps you informed about how stop levels are being calculated and why they are positioned where they are.
Empowering Messages: The table also includes motivational messages that rotate periodically, such as 'Trade with Clarity, Stop with Precision' and 'Let Winners Run, Cut Losses Short.' These messages are designed to keep you focused, motivated, and disciplined during your trading journey.
The table is simple and easy to follow, helping you maintain discipline in your trading plan. By having all the essential information in one place, the table reduces the need to make quick, emotional decisions and promotes more thoughtful analysis.
Tips for Using WillStop Pro Effectively
Here are some practical ways to make the most of the WillStop Pro indicator:
Start with Default Settings: If you’re new to the indicator, start with the default settings. This will give you an idea of how stop levels are determined and how they adjust to different markets.
Experiment with Advanced Settings: Once you are comfortable, try using the advanced stop settings to see how they refine the stop levels. This can be useful in certain market conditions to improve accuracy.
Use Alerts to Stay Updated: Set up alerts for when a stop level is broken or when new levels are calculated. This helps you take action without constantly watching the chart. Swing traders may find alerts especially helpful for monitoring longer-term moves.
Monitor the Status Table: Keep an eye on the status table to understand the current market condition. Whether the indicator is in a LONG or SHORT state can help you make more informed decisions.
Focus on Risk Management: WillStop Pro is designed to help you manage risk by dynamically adjusting stop levels. Make sure you are using these levels to protect your trades, especially during strong trends or volatile periods.

Ability to Turn On/Off either Williams %R or CCI Highlights in Inputs Tab via Check Boxes.
Ability To Set All Parameters for CCI and Williams %R in Inputs Tab.
Ability to Set High/Low “Threshold” Lines for Both CCI and Williams %R in Inputs Tab.
***I was asked if you could plot Back Ground Highlights on Two Individual Indicators AND have it show if BOTH Indicators were Overbought and Oversold.
***The answer is Yes. On the Chart Above I have the same Shade of Red and Green for Both Indicators. However, you will notice when Both Indicators Show OverBought…Both Plot Red Back Ground Highlights Which = a Brighter Red. The same is True for Oversold Conditions. The Green Shows a Brighter Shade of Green.
***VERY IMPORTANT - It is difficult for a programmer to release Indicators with this feature because depending on what color background you use on your charts…THE COLORS LOOK COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. So If You Don’t Use The Black Back Ground Shown Above You Most Likely Will Need To Adjust The Transparency, and Possibly The Colors Themselves!!!!

Tristan's Devil Mark (Short / Long, with W%R)The Devil’s Mark indicator is a visual tool designed to help traders identify potential short and long opportunities based on candle structure and market momentum. It combines price action analysis with the Williams %R (W%R) oscillator to highlight candles with high potential for reversal or continuation.
Can be used on any timeline, from scalping day trades to swing trades on daily and higher timelines. Know that the higher the timeline the less likely the indicator will show. (Asia and London sessions tend to show many indicators. I find this more useful for NY session.)
How the script works
Candle Structure Conditions
Short (Sell) Wedge: Plotted above green candles that have no bottom wick, indicating that inside that candle there was strong upward momentum without downside hesitation .
Long (Buy) Wedge: Plotted below red candles that have no top wick, indicating that inside that candle there was strong downward momentum without upside hesitation .
These candles are visually emphasized as wedges to mark potential turning points.
Williams %R Filter
The indicator uses Williams %R to measure overbought and oversold conditions:
Proximity to 0 (nearZeroThresh): Determines how close W%R must be to 0 (overbought) to trigger a Sell Wedge. This acts as a “Sell sensitivity” filter.
Proximity to -100 (nearHundredThresh): Determines how close W%R must be to -100 (oversold) to trigger a Buy Wedge. This acts as a “Buy sensitivity” filter.
When the candle meets both the candle structure and the W%R condition, the wedge is plotted in purple (“Within W%R Range”).
When the "ignore W%R filter" toggle is on, all eligible candles are plotted regardless of W%R. Wedges that normally would not meet W%R criteria are plotted in light purple (“Outside W%R Range”) to distinguish them. #YOLO (🚫 I recommend leaving "Ignore W%R Filter" OFF)
Settings Explained
Williams %R Length: The number of bars used to calculate the W%R oscillator. Shorter lengths make it more sensitive; longer lengths smooth the readings.
Proximity to 0 / 100: Controls how “strict” the indicator is in requiring overbought or oversold W%R conditions to trigger. Lower values mean closer to extreme zones, higher values are more permissive.
Ignore W%R Toggle: Option to show Devil’s Marks on every eligible candle regardless of W%R. Useful for visualizing purely price-action-based signals.
What the trader sees
Purple wedges: Candles meeting both candle structure and W%R conditions.
Light purple wedges: Candles meeting candle structure but ignored W%R (when toggle is on). #YOLO (🚫 I recommend leaving "Ignore W%R Filter" OFF)
Short opportunities are wedges above bars (green candles with no bottom wick).
Long opportunities are wedges below bars (red candles with no top wick).
Trading Insight
The Devil’s Mark is a momentum and reversal alert tool:
Look for purple downward-pointing wedges when W%R is near overbought. This is a potential shorting opportunity. Buying at the close of that candle may improve your short trades.
Look for purple upward-pointing wedges when W%R is near oversold. This is a potential
long opportunity. Buying at the close of that candle may improve your long trades.
Light purple wedges show the same price-action cues without W%R confirmation—useful for aggressive traders who want every potential setup. #YOLO #YMMV #noFullPort
Settings / Security
The “Output values” checkbox appears for each plotted series (like a plot or plotshape) and controls whether the series will also be exposed numerically in the Data Window or used by other indicators/scripts.
Here’s what it means in practice:
1. Checked (true)
The series values (like candle high, low, or any computed value) are exported to the Data Window and can be read by other scripts using request.security() or ta functions.
Example: You can see the exact numerical value of each plotted point in the Data Window when you hover over the chart.
Useful if you want to backtest or reference these plotted values programmatically.
2. Unchecked (false)
The series is plotted visually only.
The numeric values are hidden from the Data Window and cannot be accessed by other scripts.
Makes the chart cleaner if you don’t need the numeric outputs.
