T-DOW-FLOW: Final Edition
T-DOW-FLOW: Market Structure & Smart Pivot Zones
This indicator is a comprehensive technical analysis tool designed to visualize "Market Structure" based on Dow Theory and precise Supply/Demand Zones. It helps traders identify the true market trend and high-probability reaction levels by analyzing raw price action (ZigZag Pivots) rather than lagging indicators.
The script integrates three core systems:
ZigZag Trend Cloud: Visualizes the market bias (Uptrend/Downtrend).
Smart Pivot Zones (Type 1): Highlights the specific "Wick-to-Body" area of recent pivots.
Auto Density Channels (Type 2): Detects historical support/resistance clusters.
1. ZigZag Trend Identification
Logic: The script utilizes ta.highestbars and ta.lowestbars to detect Swing Highs and Swing Lows.
Trend Cloud:
If the structure creates a Higher High, the background cloud turns Green (Uptrend).
If the structure creates a Lower Low, the background cloud turns Red (Downtrend).
This provides an instant visual filter for "Trend Flow," encouraging traders to trade only in the direction of the dominant market structure.
2. SR Type 1: Smart Pivot Zones (Wick-to-Body)
Unlike standard indicators that draw thin lines at the absolute High/Low, this script focuses on the "Imbalance Zone".
It calculates the price range between the Pivot's Wick and the Pivot's Body (Open/Close) and fills this area with a colored zone.
Why? The area between the wick and body often represents the precise zone where institutional orders were filled, acting as a more reliable support/resistance level than a single price point.
3. SR Type 2: Auto Density Channels
This module scans a significant amount of historical data (default: 300 bars) to find clusters of pivot points.
Areas where multiple pivots align within a specific width are drawn as Channels. These represent strong, long-term psychological levels.
Trend Filter: Check the Trend Cloud color.
Green: Look for Long opportunities.
Red: Look for Short opportunities.
Entry Trigger: Wait for the price to retrace into a Smart Pivot Zone (Type 1) or an Auto Channel (Type 2).
Look for price rejection (wicks) at these zones in the direction of the Trend Cloud.
Structure Confirmation: Use the ZigZag lines and labels (HH, HL, etc.) to confirm that the market structure is still intact before entering.
ZigZag Settings: Adjust the sensitivity of the trend detection.
SR Type 1: Toggle the "Wick-to-Body" fill and choose between Wicks or Bodies as the primary source.
SR Type 2: Adjust the historical loopback period and channel width sensitivity.

このインジケーターは、「ダウ理論」に基づくトレンド判定と、精密な「需給ゾーン（Supply/Demand）」を可視化するための市場構造分析ツールです。 遅行指標を使わず、純粋なプライスアクション（ZigZagピボット）に基づいて、機関投資家の意識する価格帯を特定します。
1. ZigZagトレンドクラウド
ロジック: 一定期間の高値・安値を検出し、ダウ理論に基づいてトレンドを判定します。
視覚化: 高値切り上げ（上昇トレンド）なら「緑」、安値切り下げ（下落トレンド）なら「赤」の背景色を表示します。これにより、トレードすべき方向（順張り）を一目で判断できます。
2. SR Type 1: スマートピボットゾーン (Wick-to-Body)
単なる水平線ではなく、ローソク足の**「ヒゲ先」から「実体」までの価格差**をゾーンとして塗りつぶして表示します。
理由: ヒゲと実体の間の領域は、大口の注文が執行された（需給の不均衡が発生した）重要なエリアであることが多く、ピンポイントのラインよりも信頼性の高い反発ゾーンとして機能します。
3. SR Type 2: オート・デンシティ・チャネル
過去の長期間（デフォルト300本）のデータをスキャンし、ピボットが密集している価格帯を自動で「チャネル」として描画します。長期的に意識される強力なレジサポ帯です。
環境認識: 背景のトレンドクラウドの色に従い、目線を固定します。
エントリー: 価格がSRゾーン（Type 1）やチャネル（Type 2）に引きつけて、反発する動きを確認してエントリーします。
構造確認: ZigZagラインとラベル（HH/HLなど）を見て、トレンドが崩れていないことを確認します。
FVG Supply and DemandThis indicator combines powerful tools into one:
• Supply & Demand Zones built from swing highs/lows with ATR-based zone width, POI markers, and Break-of-Structure (BOS) detection.
• Volumized Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) showing bullish/bearish gaps, total volume inside the gap, volume distribution, optional zone-combining, and auto-cleanup.
• Swing TSL Line and manage bar color.
It helps visualize key imbalance areas, institutional zones, and price reaction points.

SHAMAZZ = Smoothed Heikin Ashi + MA + ZigZagSHAMAZZ: Smoothed Heikin Ashi + Moving Averages + ZigZag Structure
This script is a visual analysis tool that combines three components in one place:
Smoothed Heikin Ashi candles
• Candles are generated using a two-stage exponential smoothing process applied to open, high, low, and close
• Helps visualize general price direction and candle transitions
• Supports optional multi-timeframe views using TradingView’s request.security()
Moving Averages
• Includes two standard moving averages (SMA 50 and SMA 200 by default)
• These are plotted on the same timeframe as the main chart or a selected higher timeframe
• No trading signals or strategies are generated from the averages
ZigZag Pivot Mapping
• Identifies swing highs and lows based on user-selected pivot length
• Classifies pivots into simple categories such as higher high, lower high, higher low, or lower low
• Draws connecting lines between detected pivots
• Can optionally display small labels showing the pivot type
• The ZigZag is not predictive and only reflects swings already formed by the chosen pivot settings
Purpose
The script is meant as a charting helper for traders who want to visualize smoothed candles, major moving averages, and swing structure without switching indicators. It does not generate signals, alerts, or trading advice. It does not imply future outcomes, accuracy, or profitability.
Note on Higher Timeframes
When higher-timeframe values are requested, the script only displays confirmed higher-timeframe candle closes. No lookahead behavior is intended. Users who want the safest and strictest mode should keep all additional timeframe options disabled and use the indicator on one timeframe only.
How to Use
• Turn components on or off depending on your workflow
• Adjust pivot length to make the ZigZag more or less sensitive
• Use smoothed candles and moving averages as visual references
• Use ZigZag swings only for structure mapping, not for trade signals or forecasts
This tool is provided for visual analysis only and does not promise performance or predictive value.

📋 Group 1: Core COT Settings
COT Report Type
Options: Legacy | Disaggregated | Financial
What it is: Selects the type of COT report data to analyze.
Legacy - Traditional COT report format. Recommended for most users. Uses "Commercial Positions" and "Noncommercial Positions" metrics. Shows Commercial, Non-Commercial, and Small Speculator positions in the classic format.
Commercials: "Commercial Positions"
Speculators: "Noncommercial Positions"
Small Specs: "Nonreportable Positions"
Disaggregated - Separates managed money from other speculators. Uses different metrics than Legacy format.
Commercials: "Producer Merchant Positions"
Speculators: "Managed Money Positions"
Small Specs: "Nonreportable Positions"
Important: When using Disaggregated report type, the table will still show "Non-Comm" as the label, but the data displayed is actually " Managed Money Positions " (hedge funds and CTAs). The underlying data changes based on your report type selection, even though the table label remains "Non-Comm" for consistency.
Where you'll see this data:
📊 Current Positions section - The "Non-Comm" row shows Managed Money long, short, and net positions
📊 Open Interest Analysis section - "Non-Comm" net changes reflect Managed Money position changes
📈 Analysis section - "Non-Comm" percentile and LW Index values are calculated from Managed Money positions
Chart plots - The blue "Non-Commercial" line shows Managed Money net positions
Useful when you want to analyze hedge funds (Managed Money) separately from other large speculators. The "Commercial" row will show " Producer Merchant Positions " instead of general "Commercial Positions".
Financial - Designed for financial instruments (currencies, bonds, stock indices). Uses financial-specific metrics.
Commercials: "Dealer Positions"
Speculators: "Leveraged Funds Positions"
Small Specs: "Nonreportable Positions"
Important: When using Financial report type, the table will still show "Commercial" and "Non-Comm" as labels, but the data displayed is actually " Dealer Positions " (commercials) and " Leveraged Funds Positions " (speculators). The underlying data changes based on your report type selection.
Where you'll see this data:
📊 Current Positions section - "Commercial" row shows Dealer long/short/net, "Non-Comm" row shows Leveraged Funds positions
📊 Open Interest Analysis section - Net changes reflect Dealer and Leveraged Funds position changes
📈 Analysis section - Percentile and LW Index values are calculated from Dealer and Leveraged Funds positions
Chart plots - Lines show Dealer and Leveraged Funds net positions
Use this for currency futures, bond futures, and stock index futures.
Trading Use: Most traders use Legacy as it provides the most comprehensive view and works with all asset types. Switch to Disaggregated if you want to analyze managed money positions separately. Use Financial specifically for financial instruments (currencies, bonds, stock indices).
---
Include Options Data
Default: Off (false)
What it is: Toggles whether to include options positions in addition to futures positions.
Trading Use: Larry Williams observed no significant difference in COT analysis when including options data. Keep this disabled unless you specifically need options data. Most traders leave it off for cleaner analysis.
---
Auto-detect CFTC Code
Default: On (true)
What it is: Automatically finds the correct CFTC code for your symbol.
Trading Use: Keep this enabled unless you need a specific CFTC code. The script automatically detects codes for:
- Currency futures: CME:6E1! , CME:6B1! , CME:6J1!
- Stock index futures: CME_MINI:ES1! , CBOT_MINI:YM1! , CME_MINI:NQ1!
- Commodities: NYMEX:CL1! , COMEX:GC1! , CBOT:ZC1!
- And many more
Only disable if you're analyzing a symbol that requires a specific CFTC code not in the auto-detection database.
---
Manual CFTC Code
Default: Empty
What it is: Enter a specific CFTC code manually (e.g. for E-mini S&P 500). "13874+"
Trading Use: Only used when Auto-detect CFTC Code is disabled. Most users never need this setting.
---
📊 Group 2: Analysis Parameters
Display Mode
Options: COT Report | COT Index | COT Proximity Index

COT Report - Shows raw position data (Long, Short, Net positions) plus analysis. Best for detailed analysis. Displays Commercial, Non-Commercial, Small Speculator, and Open Interest lines.
COT Index - Shows index values based on your selected Analysis Method (Percentile or LW Index). Best for quick sentiment analysis. Displays index lines for Commercial, Non-Commercial, Small Speculator, and Open Interest. Percentile can exceed 0-100% for extremes, LW Index stays 0-100%.
Percentile can exceed 0-100% for extremes
LW Index stays 0-100%
COT Proximity Index - Shows a price-based proxy indicator. Useful when COT data is delayed or unavailable. Calculates sentiment based on price action patterns.
Trading Use:
- Use COT Report for comprehensive analysis
- Use COT Index when you want to focus on extreme sentiment levels
- Use COT Proximity Index as a backup when COT data is delayed or unavailable.
---
Analysis Method
Options: Percentile | LW Index
What it is: Selects the calculation method for position rankings.
Percentile - Professional approach. Excludes current bar from range calculation. Can show extremes (>100% or <0%) when today's value breaks historical range. More sensitive to recent extremes.
LW Index - Original Larry Williams method. Includes current bar in range, always 0-100%. Traditional approach.
Trading Use:
Percentile - Better for catching new extremes and recent market shifts
LW Index - Better for traditional Larry Williams analysis
Most traders prefer Percentile for its ability to show when positions break historical ranges.
---
Lookback Mode
Options: Auto | Manual
What it is: Controls how the historical lookback period is determined.
Auto - Automatically sets lookback period based on detected asset type
Manual - Choose your own lookback period
Trading Use: Use Auto unless you have a specific reason to customize. The script automatically sets optimal periods:
Currencies: 26 weeks
Metals: 13 weeks
Grains: 26 weeks
Stocks/Indices: 13 weeks
Bonds: 52 weeks
Energies: 13 weeks
---
Manual Lookback Period
Options: 1 Month | 3 Months | 6 Months | 1 Year | 3 Years | Asset-specific presets | Manual
What it is: How far back to look for historical comparison. Only used when Lookback Mode is set to Manual .
---
Manual Lookback Weeks
Default: 18 weeks | Range: 1-500
What it is: Exact number of weeks to look back. Only used when Manual Lookback Period is set to Manual .
Trading Use: Set a custom period if you want precise control. 18 weeks = approximately one quarter (3 months).
---
🎯 Group 3: Signal Generation
Show Signal Arrows
Default: Off (false)
What it is: Displays buy/sell arrows on the chart when extreme positions are detected.
Trading Use: Enable to get visual alerts for signals. Signals use strict multi-factor conditions requiring:
- Commercial extreme positioning
- Speculator positioning alignment
- Open Interest confirmation
- Trend consistency
- And more...
---
Show Background Colors
Default: Off (false)
What it is: Colors the chart background during extreme market conditions.
Trading Use: Enable for visual market state awareness:
- Strong signals = Darker background colors
- Moderate signals = Lighter background colors
- Green background = Bullish extreme
- Red background = Bearish extreme
Useful for quick visual assessment of market conditions.
---
Use Price Trend Weighting
Default: On (true)
What it is: Weights signals based on price trend alignment.
How it works:
Uptrend + Commercials long = Stronger bullish signal
Downtrend + Commercials short = Stronger bearish signal
Counter-trend signals = Harder to trigger (more conservative)
Trading Use: Keep enabled for more reliable signals. Commercials aligned with price trend are historically more accurate.
This feature makes signals easier to trigger when commercials align with the trend and harder when they're counter-trend.
---
Trend MA Period
Default: 40 | Range: 1-200
What it is: Moving average period for price trend detection.
How it works:
Price above MA with the MA rising = Uptrend
Price below MA with the MA declining = Downtrend
---
📈 Group 4: Plot Display Settings
Commercial Line Settings
Default Color: Red | Default Width: 2
What it is: Controls the Commercial traders net position line appearance.
Trading Use: Commercials are considered "smart money." Watch for:
Extreme long positions (high index ≥74%) = Heavy buyers = BULLISH signal
Extreme short positions (low index ≤26%) = Heavy sellers = BEARISH signal
Red is traditional for commercials. When Commercials are heavy buyers (high index), it's a bullish signal. When they're heavy sellers (low index), it's a bearish signal.
---
Non-Commercial Line Settings
Default Color: Blue | Default Width: 2
What it is: Controls the Non-Commercial (Large Speculators) net position line appearance.
Trading Use: Large speculators are often trend-followers. Watch for:
Extreme long = Potential top (contrarian sell signal)
Extreme short = Potential bottom (contrarian buy signal)
They're often wrong at extremes - use as contrarian indicator.
---
Small Speculator Line Settings
Default Color: Green | Default Width: 2
What it is: Controls the Small Speculators net position line appearance.
Trading Use: Small specs are typically wrong at extremes:
Extreme long = Potential top (sell signal)
Extreme short = Potential bottom (buy signal)
Exception: In Meats markets, small specs are accurate (like commercials).
---
Small Speculator Multiplier
Default: 5.0x | Range: 0.1-20.0
What it is: Multiplies Small Speculator PLOTTED values for visual comparison.
Important: This only affects the visual plot line, NOT calculations or table values. Raw values used in all calculations remain unchanged.
Trading Use: Small spec positions are often much smaller than commercials. Use multiplier (default 5.0x) to scale the line for easier visual comparison.
---
Open Interest Line Settings
Default Color: Black | Default Width: 1
What it is: Controls the Open Interest line appearance.
Trading Use: Open Interest shows market participation:
Rising OI = New money entering (confirms trend)
Falling OI = Money leaving (potential reversal)
Watch WHO is driving OI changes - This is critical
---
Scale Open Interest
Default: On (true)
What it is: Scales Open Interest values to fit chart range.
Important: Only affects plotted lines, not table values. Scaling changes based on lookback period:
- Shorter lookback = More compressed range
- Longer lookback = Wider range
Trading Use: Keep enabled for better visual comparison. Disable if you want absolute OI values.
---
Show Reference Lines
Default: Off (false)
What it is: Toggles the display of horizontal reference lines at 0%, 50%, and 100% levels on the chart.
What it shows:
Zero Line (0%) - Dotted gray line at 0% level
Midline (50%) - Solid gray line at 50% level
100 Line (100%) - Dotted gray line at 100% level
Trading Use: Enable when you want visual reference points for:
0% = Extreme bearish positioning
50% = Neutral/middle range
100% = Extreme bullish positioning
---
🔄 Group 5: Smoothing Settings
Smoothing Method
Options: None | SMA | EMA | WMA | RMA
What it is: Selects the moving average type for smoothing data.
None - Use raw data (no smoothing)
SMA - Simple Moving Average (equal weight to all periods)
EMA - Exponential Moving Average (more weight to recent data)
WMA - Weighted Moving Average (linear weighting)
RMA - Relative Moving Average (Wilder's smoothing)
Trading Use:
None - Best for catching extremes quickly
SMA - Most common, balanced smoothing
EMA - More responsive to recent changes
WMA/RMA - Advanced smoothing methods
Smoothing reduces noise but may delay signal detection. Use None for most responsive signals.
---
Smoothing Period
Default: 4 | Range: 2-20
What it is: Number of periods for the moving average smoothing.
Trading Use:
Shorter periods (2-5) = Less smoothing, more responsive
Longer periods (10-20) = More smoothing, less noise
Default 4 = Good balance
Only used when Smoothing Method is not None.
---
Smooth COT Report Plots
Default: Off (false)
What it is: Applies smoothing to COT Report plotted lines (Commercial, Non-Commercial, Small Speculators, Open Interest).
Trading Use: Enable if you want smoother chart lines. Note: Smoothing affects visual display but calculations use raw data unless Smooth COT Index Plots is also enabled.
---
Smooth COT Index Plots
Default: Off (false)
What it is: Applies smoothing to COT Index plotted lines.
Trading Use: Enable if you want smoother index lines. Important : When enabled, smoothed values are used in table displays and signal calculations. This affects the "user-facing" index values shown in the table and used for signals.
---
📊 Group 6: COT Proximity Index Settings
Proximity Length Mode
Options: Auto | Manual
What it is: Controls how the proximity index calculation period is determined.
Auto - Calculates length based on ZigZag patterns (dynamic)
Manual - Uses fixed length setting
Trading Use: Use Auto for adaptive calculation. Use Manual if you want consistent period regardless of market conditions.
---
Manual Proximity Length
Default: 8 bars | Range: 1+
What it is: Fixed number of bars for COT Proximity Index calculation. Only used when Proximity Length Mode is Manual .
Trading Use: Set based on your timeframe. 8 bars works well for weekly chart.

What it is: COT Index level below which commercials are considered heavy sellers (extreme short positioning).
Trading Use: This threshold is used for:
- Signal generation
- Market state calculation
- Entry level recommendations
Default 26% means commercials are "heavy sellers" when LW Index ≤ 26%.
---
ZigZag Deviation
Default: 1.0% | Range: 1-100.0
What it is: Minimum price change (%) required to create a new ZigZag pivot point.
Trading Use:
Smaller values = More sensitive, more pivots
Larger values = Less sensitive, fewer pivots

📋 Understanding Each Table Section
This section explains what each part of the main table means and how to use it for trading decisions.
⚙️ Settings Section
Report Type - Shows which COT report format you're using (Legacy, Disaggregated, or Financial). Verify this matches your asset type.
Options - Indicates if options data is included ("Included") or excluded ("Excluded"). Most traders exclude options for cleaner analysis.
CFTC Code - Unique identifier for your futures contract. Shows "Auto" when automatically detected, or displays the manual code if set.
Trading Use: Always verify your CFTC code is correct. Wrong code = wrong data = wrong signals.
---
📊 Current Positions Section
Shows the actual position sizes for each trader group.
What Each Column Means:
Long - Total long contracts held by this group
Short - Total short contracts held by this group
Net - Net position (Long - Short). This is the key number.
How to Interpret:
Commercial Net Position:
- Negative (Net Short) = Commercials expect prices to fall
- Positive (Net Long) = Commercials expect prices to rise
- Commercials are "smart money" - their positioning often precedes major moves
Non-Commercial Net Position:
- Positive (Net Long) = Large speculators bullish
- Negative (Net Short) = Large speculators bearish
- Often trend-followers, can be caught at extremes
Small Spec Net Position:
- Positive (Net Long) = Small traders bullish
- Negative (Net Short) = Small traders bearish
- Often contrarian indicator - wrong at extremes
Trading Edge: Watch for extremes in Commercial net positions. When Commercials are heavy buyers (high index ≥74%), it's a bullish signal. When they're heavy sellers (low index ≤26%), it's a bearish signal.
---
📊 Open Interest Analysis Section
Open Interest - Total number of outstanding contracts. Shows market participation level.
Change - Week-over-week change in Open Interest. Rising OI = new money entering, Falling OI = money leaving.
Net Changes - Shows which group is driving Open Interest changes. This is Larry Williams' most important insight.
🎯 Critical Question: Who is Driving OI Changes?
EXTREMELY BULLISH SIGNAL (Very Rare - Pay Close Attention):
- Commercials driving OI increase + Commercials raising positions + Uptrend market
- Meaning: Smart money (commercials) accumulating long positions while market is rising
- Action: Extremely bullish - very rare setup, pay close attention to this signal
- This is the strongest bullish signal possible
BULLISH SIGNAL (Strong Buy):
- Commercials driving OI increase + Commercials net long
- Meaning: Smart money accumulating long positions
- Action: Strong bullish setup
BEARISH SIGNAL (Strong Sell - Market Topping):
- Commercials exiting + OI increasing due to Small Specs + Non-Commercials
- Meaning: Smart money leaving while speculative money entering
- Action: Market top forming - most likely scenario for bearish reversal
- This indicates speculative excess and potential market top
BEARISH SIGNAL (Speculative Excess):
- Small Specs + Non-Commercials driving OI increase + They are net long
- Meaning: Speculative excess, "dumb money" driving market
- Action: Bearish reversal likely
Trading Use:
- Rising OI = New money entering (confirms trend)
- Falling OI = Money leaving (potential reversal)
- Watch WHO is driving OI changes - This is critical
- When Commercials drive OI increases while raising positions in an uptrend = Extremely bullish and very rare - pay attention
- When Commercials exit while OI increases due to Small Specs and Non-Commercials = Market topping signal

📋 Understanding Compact Mode Fields
The Compact mode provides essential information for quick trading decisions. Here's what each field means:
State
Shows the overall market sentiment based on combined COT analysis.
Possible Values:
- STRONG BULLISH - Multiple factors aligned bullish, strong buy signal
- MODERATE BULLISH - Several bullish factors, moderate buy signal
- LEANING BULLISH - Slight bullish bias, watch for confirmation
- NEUTRAL - Mixed signals, trade with existing trend
- LEANING BEARISH - Slight bearish bias, watch for confirmation
- MODERATE BEARISH - Several bearish factors, moderate sell signal
- STRONG BEARISH - Multiple factors aligned bearish, strong sell signal
Trading Use: Start your analysis here. Strong signals (STRONG BULLISH/BEARISH) indicate higher confidence setups. Neutral means trade with price trend.
---
Entry
Your actionable trading signal based on Commercial positioning.
Possible Values:
- LONG - Commercials are heavy buyers (≥Heavy Buyers Level), bullish signal
- SHORT - Commercials are heavy sellers (≤Heavy Sellers Level), bearish signal
- Wait - Commercials neutral, no clear signal
Trading Use: This is your go/no-go decision point. Only take trades when Entry shows LONG or SHORT. When Entry = Wait, stay on sidelines until clearer signal develops.
---
Comm Index
Commercial LW Index percentage showing where Commercial net position ranks historically.
Range: 0% to 100%
- 0-26% = Commercials heavy sellers (bearish positioning)
- 27-73% = Commercials neutral (no extreme)
- 74-100% = Commercials heavy buyers (bullish positioning)
Trading Use: Commercial extremes are most reliable. Values ≥74% (heavy buyers/extreme long) = BULLISH signal. Values ≤26% (heavy sellers/extreme short) = BEARISH signal. When Commercials are heavy buyers, it indicates bullish sentiment. When they're heavy sellers, it indicates bearish sentiment.
---
OI Status
Open Interest condition showing market participation level and trend.
Format: Status (Percentile %)
Examples:
- High (100.0%) - OI at extreme high, strong participation
- Moderate (50.0%) - OI at average level
- Low (10.0%) - OI at extreme low, weak participation
Trend Indicators:
- Rising - OI increasing (new money entering)
- Falling - OI decreasing (money leaving)
- Stable - OI unchanged
Trading Use: High OI with rising trend = strong market participation, confirms directional moves. Falling OI = watch for potential reversals. Low OI = reduced participation, potential for volatility.
---
Best Setup
Shows which combination of factors has the highest historical accuracy.
Format: Combination Name (Accuracy %)
Examples:
- Commercials Alone (75.3%) - Commercial positioning only
- Commercials + Speculators (68.2%) - Commercials and specs aligned
- Commercials + Open Interest (72.1%) - Commercials with OI confirmation
- Commercials + Speculators + OI (82.1%) - All factors aligned (strongest)
Trading Use: Higher accuracy values indicate signals with higher historical accuracy. When Best Setup shows "Commercials + Speculators + OI" with high accuracy, it indicates a combination with strong historical performance.
---
Trend
13-week cumulative trend direction based on net position changes.
Possible Values:
- Bullish - Net positions trending bullish over 13 weeks
- Bearish - Net positions trending bearish over 13 weeks
- Mixed - No clear directional trend
Trading Use: Align Entry signals with Trend for higher accuracy. When Entry = LONG and Trend = Bullish, signal is stronger. When Entry = LONG but Trend = Bearish, wait for price confirmation before entering. Counter-trend signals require more confirmation.

💡 Key Trading Concepts
Market State Interpretation
STRONG BULLISH - Multiple factors aligned bullish. Strong buy signal.
MODERATE BULLISH - Several bullish factors. Moderate buy signal.
LEANING BULLISH - Slight bullish bias. Watch for confirmation.
NEUTRAL - Mixed signals. Trade with existing trend.
LEANING BEARISH - Slight bearish bias. Watch for confirmation.
MODERATE BEARISH - Several bearish factors. Moderate sell signal.
STRONG BEARISH - Multiple factors aligned bearish. Strong sell signal.
---
Entry Level Signals
LONG - Commercials are heavy buyers (≥Heavy Buyers Level). Bullish signal.
SHORT - Commercials are heavy sellers (≤Heavy Sellers Level). Bearish signal.
Wait - Commercials neutral. No clear signal.
When Commercials are heavy buyers (high index), it indicates bullish sentiment. When they're heavy sellers (low index), it indicates bearish sentiment.
---
Best Setup Interpretation
The Best Setup shows the historically highest accuracy combination:
Commercials Alone - Commercial positioning is most reliable
Commercials + Speculators - Both groups aligned
Commercials + Open Interest - Commercials + OI confirmation
Commercials + Speculators + OI - All factors aligned (strongest)
Higher accuracy = More reliable signal. Use this to prioritize which signals to follow.
---
Open Interest Analysis
Critical Question: Who is driving Open Interest changes?
EXTREMELY BULLISH (Very Rare):
Commercials driving OI increase + Commercials raising positions + Uptrend = EXTREMELY BULLISH
This is very rare - pay close attention when this occurs
STRONG BULLISH:
Commercials driving OI increase + Commercials long = STRONG BULLISH
BEARISH (Market Topping):
Commercials exiting + OI increasing due to Small Specs + Non-Commercials = BEARISH (market topping)
Most likely scenario for bearish reversal - speculative excess
BEARISH (Speculative Excess):
Speculators driving OI increase + Speculators long = BEARISH (speculative excess)
TREND CONFIRMATION:
Rising OI = Confirms trend (new money entering)
Falling OI = Potential reversal (money leaving)
This is one of Larry Williams' most important insights. When Commercials drive OI increases while raising positions in an uptrend, it's extremely bullish and very rare - pay attention. When Commercials exit while Small Specs and Non-Commercials drive OI increases, the market is likely topping.

ZigZag + Support/ResistanceZigZag + Support/Resistance — Overview
This tool combines a ZigZag swing-detection engine with an automatic Support and Resistance system. Swing highs become resistance zones, swing lows become support zones, and each zone is drawn, merged, extended, or expired according to market activity.
The goal of this indicator is to create a clear, structured view of market turning points and key levels, without manual plotting. It helps traders understand where price has previously reacted, where liquidity may rest, and how structure shifts over time.
How the Indicator Works
The ZigZag engine identifies significant market swings by waiting for price to move far enough in one direction to confirm a true turning point.
A confirmed swing low becomes a Support level.
A confirmed swing high becomes a Resistance level.
The indicator connects ZigZag pivots visually if enabled.
Every time a new swing forms, the indicator automatically adds or updates the nearest Support or Resistance zone.
Support and Resistance Zones
Instead of drawing simple horizontal lines, this script uses price “bands” taken from the candle’s wick and body at the swing point. This gives more realistic zones that represent true areas where the market reacted.
Each zone extends to the right for a user-defined number of bars and remains active until one of the following occurs:
Price breaks the level
(optional: requires a candle close depending on settings)
The level expires
based on the chosen lifetime or automatic timeframe-based defaults.
When a zone is broken or expires, it automatically disappears from the chart.
Zone Merging
The indicator includes advanced logic to identify overlapping or near-overlapping zones:
Zones that touch or nearly touch each other can be merged.
Merged zones can be displayed with a neutral color if desired.
The tool automatically combines, updates, and redraws these zones to keep the chart clean and organized.
This prevents clutter and highlights areas where multiple reactions have occurred, signaling stronger levels.
ZigZag Swings
The ZigZag component identifies major market swings using the “ZigZag Length” setting.
Higher values produce fewer, stronger swings.
Lower values produce more detailed swing structure.
When enabled, the indicator draws straight lines connecting each ZigZag pivot to the next, outlining the overall trend and showing the flow of market structure.
Each ZigZag pivot directly feeds the Support/Resistance system.
Key Features
Automatic support and resistance detection
Full zone visualization (rectangles or lines)
Optional merging of overlapping or nearby zones
Adjustable zone transparency and appearance
Time-based expiration of old or inactive levels
Option for break-confirmation using only candle closes
ZigZag swing visualization
Adaptable to any timeframe
Recommended Use
This indicator is designed for traders who rely on market structure, swing analysis, or price-reaction areas. It is useful for identifying potential turning points, breakout zones, liquidity areas, and strong historical supports/resistances.
Whether you trade reversals, breakouts, trend continuation, or liquidity concepts, this tool provides an organized and automated view of the most important levels on the chart.
ZigZagZigZag Indicator – Overview
This ZigZag indicator highlights the most important swing highs and swing lows on the chart, helping traders see market structure more clearly by filtering out minor price movements. It connects significant turning points with straight lines, creating a clean visual representation of trend direction and major reversals.
How It Works
Price constantly moves up and down, but not every movement is meaningful. The ZigZag indicator waits for price to make a move large enough to be considered a true swing point. Once such a movement occurs, the indicator identifies it as either a swing high or a swing low and draws a line connecting it to the previous swing.
This produces a simplified outline of market structure, making it easier to recognize trends, corrections, and major turning points.
Settings
ZigZag Length
Controls the sensitivity of the indicator.
Lower values produce more frequent swing points.
Higher values show only major swings and reduce noise.
Show ZigZag
Enables or disables the visual lines. When disabled, the indicator continues tracking swing points internally.
What You See on the Chart
Every time the market creates a confirmed swing high or swing low, the indicator draws a line to the previous swing in the opposite direction.
After a major low is confirmed, a line is drawn to the most recent high.
After a major high is confirmed, a line is drawn to the most recent low.
This creates a clear, continuous zigzag that outlines the dominant movements of the market without reacting to every small fluctuation.
Why This ZigZag Is Useful
It does not repaint once a swing is confirmed.
It provides a clean and simplified view of price structure.
It helps identify trend direction, structure breaks, impulses, and corrections.
It is useful for traders who follow price action, smart money concepts, and swing-based strategies.
Recommended Use Cases
This ZigZag indicator is suited for traders who rely on market structure analysis, including:
Swing trading
Smart Money Concepts (BOS/CHOCH detection)
Identifying impulses and pullbacks
Finding strong highs and lows
Studying overall trend direction

Price Action ZigZag (Impulses & Corrections)This indicator tracks price structure by connecting significant swing highs and lows—giving a clear, actionable “ZigZag” view of market movement. It automatically maps the underlying price action as alternating impulses (trend legs) and corrections (pullbacks), directly on your chart, for any timeframe.
How does it work?
Swing Detection:
The script uses the user-selected “pivot length” to identify confirmed swing highs and lows with Pine Script’s ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow.
These pivots only print after full confirmation, making all lines strictly non-repainting.
ZigZag Drawing:
After pivots are captured, the indicator connects each alternating swing with lines that trace the progression of price structure.
Each line segment is mapped according to the sequence and direction of swings:
Impulse: Moves that break further away from prior swing in the same direction (continuations/uptrends/downtrends)
Correction: Moves that pull price back, but do not extend past the previous impulse (retracements/sideways action)
Impulse vs Correction Logic:
Bullish impulse: swing from a higher low to a higher high (fast upward moves after a low)
Bearish impulse: swing from a lower high to a lower low (fast downward moves after a high)
Corrections appear as smaller lines between alternating swing points not leading to new trend extension.
Labels & Colors:
Impulse lines are drawn teal (customizable), corrections in gray.
Tiny labels ("Impulse", "Correction") are shown for clarity (optional).
Most recent pivots are highlighted with yellow dots for quick visual reference.
Key Features:
User-adjustable pivot length controls sensitivity and structure size (scalp to swing).
Distinguishes between impulses and corrections instantly on the chart.
Labels and color coding for clarity—traders can spot trend continuation vs. pullback at a glance.
Non-repainting confirmed pivots and lines; never show incomplete data.
Fully customizable appearance—all colors and label display adjustable in settings.
Zero lookahead or repainting: all signals use confirmed, historical price only.
How to use:
Add to any chart and set 'Swing Length' to fit your trading style (shorter for scalping, longer for bigger structure).
Follow the ZigZag lines to see when price makes an impulse vs. correction, and use this to identify high-probability momentum or reversal zones.
Combine this script with your own analysis/strategy or other indicators for deeper context.
Adjust colors and label options for your preferred chart clarity.
Disclaimer:
This script is a visualization and analysis tool for educational purposes—it does not predict future price movement, guarantee results, or provide trading signals. Always use sound risk management and your own judgment in live trading.

Wolfe Waves [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
The Wolfe Waves pattern was first introduced by Bill Wolfe , a trader and analyst in the 1980s–1990s who specialized in market geometry and natural rhythm cycles. Wolfe observed that price often forms symmetrical wave structures that anticipate equilibrium points where supply and demand meet. These formations, called Wolfe Waves , gained popularity as a reliable pattern for forecasting both short- and long-term reversals.
The Wolfe Waves indicator automatically detects these patterns in real time. It tracks sequences of five pivots (points 1 through 5) and connects them with wave lines. Users can select either Bullish or Bearish Wolfe Waves depending on their trading bias. When the pattern fails, the lines automatically turn red to highlight invalidation.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Five-Point Structure – Wolfe Waves are defined by five pivots (1–5), which together form the basis of the wave pattern.
Bullish Pattern – Occurs when price compresses downward into point 5, signaling a potential upside reversal.
Bearish Pattern – Occurs when price extends upward into point 5, forecasting a downside reversal.
Validation & Failure – The pattern is considered valid once all five pivots form; if price fails to respect the expected breakout, the indicator marks the structure as broken with red lines.
🔵 FEATURES
Automatic detection of Bullish and Bearish Wolfe Waves.
Labels each pivot (1–5) on the chart for clarity.
Draws connecting lines between pivots to visualize the wave structure.
Projects target/dashed lines (EPA/ETA) based on Wolfe Wave geometry.
Lines automatically turn red when the pattern is broken, giving immediate feedback.
Customizable color scheme for bullish (lime) and bearish (orange) waves.
Adjustable sensitivity for pivot detection.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Choose between Bullish or Bearish mode depending on your analysis.
Watch for the formation of all five pivots; the indicator labels them clearly.
Look for potential entries near point 5, with the expectation that price will travel toward the projected EPA line.
Use invalidation (lines turning red) as a risk management warning to exit failed setups.
Combine with momentum, volume, or higher-timeframe analysis to increase reliability.
🔵 CONCLUSION
The Wolfe Waves brings the classic Wolfe Wave theory into an automated TradingView tool. Inspired by Bill Wolfe’s original concept of natural market cycles, this indicator detects, labels, and validates Wolfe Waves in real time. With automatic invalidation marking and customizable settings, it offers traders a structured way to harness one of the most well-known geometric reversal patterns.

Gann Swings with Weis Wave VolumeThis indicator combines two powerful market analysis techniques into a single, comprehensive tool: swing analysis based on the theories of W.D. Gann and volume analysis popularized by David Weis (Weis Wave). By visualizing the market's wave structure and the volume that drives each move, this indicator helps traders gauge the strength of a trend and identify potential reversals.
Key Features
Gann Swing Lines:
The indicator automatically identifies and plots market swings by connecting significant highs and lows. This provides a clean, intuitive view of the market's structure and the prevailing trend direction.
Upward swings are colored green, and downward swings are colored red (by default), making it easy to see the market's flow at a glance. A real-time line is also drawn to track the current, developing swing.
Weis Wave Volume Display:
At the conclusion of each swing, the indicator calculates the total cumulative volume for that entire price wave and displays it at the swing's peak or trough. This is the core of the Weis Wave concept, linking volume directly to price swings rather than individual candles.
This feature allows traders to analyze the "effort vs. result." For example, a long upward price swing that occurs on low cumulative volume may suggest a lack of conviction and a higher probability of reversal. Conversely, a breakout past a previous swing high accompanied by significant volume confirms the strength of the move.
The cumulative volume for the current, unfinished wave is also displayed in real-time with an underscore (_) suffix.
Volume-Based Candle Coloring:
This optional feature colors the price bars based on their volume relative to a moving average (EMA) of volume.
Candles with significantly higher-than-average volume are painted in darker, more intense shades of green (for up-candles) or red (for down-candles).
This helps to instantly spot high-interest areas, such as climactic buying or selling, which often occur at key support and resistance levels or turning points.
Settings (Inputs) Explained
Gann Swing Settings:
Show Gann Swing Lines: Toggles the visibility of the swing lines.
Line Width: Adjusts the thickness of the swing lines.
Up Swing/Down Swing: Allows for full customization of the colors for up and down swing lines.
Volume Numbers Settings:
Show Volume Numbers: Toggles the visibility of the cumulative Weis Wave volume labels.
Up Volume/Down Volume: Customizes the text color for the volume numbers on up and down swings.
Size: Changes the font size of the volume labels ("Tiny" to "Huge").
Volume Unit: Formats the volume display. Choose "None" for the raw number, "K" for thousands, "M" for millions, or "B" for billions to keep the chart clean.
Additional Visual Settings:
Show Volume Candles: Enables or disables the volume-based bar coloring.
Volume EMA Period: Sets the lookback period for the Exponential Moving Average used to calculate average volume for the bar coloring feature.
How to Use
This indicator can be a valuable addition to various trading strategies.
Trend Confirmation: A healthy trend will typically show increasing cumulative volume on swings in the direction of the trend. For instance, in a strong uptrend, each new upswing should ideally be accompanied by volume that is equal to or greater than the previous upswing.
Divergence and Reversal Signals: A classic signal of a weakening trend is divergence. If the price makes a new higher high, but the cumulative volume on that upswing is significantly lower than the previous one, it indicates that the buying pressure is fading and a reversal may be imminent.
Identifying Key Levels: The points where swings reverse, especially when accompanied by high cumulative volume, often become critical support or resistance levels for future price action. The volume-colored candles can further highlight specific bars where institutional activity is likely occurring.
このインジケーターは、W.D.ギャンの理論に基づいたスイング分析と、デビッド・ワイスが普及させた出来高分析（ワイスウェーブ）を組み合わせたテクニカル分析ツールです。相場の波動（スイング）とそのスイングを形成するためにどれだけの出来高が投入されたかを視覚的に捉えることで、トレンドの強弱や転換の可能性を評価するのに役立ちます。
主な機能
ギャンスイングの描画:
相場の高値と安値を基に、上昇スイングと下降スイングを自動で識別し、ラインで結んで表示します。
これにより、市場の基本的な構造やトレンドの方向性を直感的に把握できます。
上昇スイングは緑色、下降スイングは赤色（デフォルト設定）で表示され、現在進行中のスイングはリアルタイムで描画され続けます。
ワイスウェーブ出来高の表示:
一つのスイング（波）が完了するごとに、そのスイングの始点から終点までの累計出来高を計算し、スイングの頂点（高値・安値）に表示します。
大きな価格変動（スイング）が出来高を伴っているか、あるいは出来高が乏しい中で価格だけが動いているかを判断する材料となります。
例1: 上昇スイングの価格幅が大きいにも関わらず出来高数値が小さい場合、その上昇の勢いが弱い可能性を示唆します。
例2: 価格の動きは小さいのに出来高数値が非常に大きい場合、強い抵抗や支持、あるいは市場の意見が対立している状況を示唆します。
現在進行中のスイングの累計出来高も、末尾に「_」を付けてリアルタイムで表示します。
出来高ローソク足の色付け:
オプションを有効にすると、各ローソク足の出来高を移動平均線（EMA）と比較し、その出来高の大きさに応じてローソク足を色付けします。
出来高が平均よりも大幅に大きい足は濃い色で表示され、市場の注目が集まっている価格帯（重要な高値・安値など）を特定するのに役立ちます。
設定項目（インプット）の解説
ギャンスイング設定:
ギャンスイングラインを表示: スイングラインの表示／非表示を切り替えます。
線の太さ: ラインの太さを調整します。
上昇スイング/下降スイング: 各スイングラインの色を自由に設定できます。

Basic Trading Guide
Understanding the Dynamic ZigZag System
Market Sentiment A is fundamentally a Dynamic ZigZag System that displays validated highs and lows on your price chart. The indicator uses Market Sentiment B wave calculations internally to determine when sentiment waves finish, but these histograms and oscillators are NOT displayed on your chart .
What You See on Your Chart:
✓ Validated Highs : Red checkmarks marking confirmed resistance levels
✓ Validated Lows : Green checkmarks marking confirmed support levels
ZigZag Lines : Connecting validated extremes to show market structure
💪 Strength Ratings : 0-100 scores indicating signal quality
Structure Labels : HH/HL/LH/LL showing trend context
How Validation Works (Behind the Scenes):
High Validation : Uses Market Sentiment B wave analysis to confirm when a price high represents a true resistance level
Low Validation : Uses Market Sentiment B wave analysis to confirm when a price low represents a true support level
Dynamic Detection : Continuously monitors sentiment waves to validate extremes in real-time
Quality Filtering : Only displays the most significant highs and lows based on wave completion
Key Trading Concept:
Focus entirely on the validated highs and lows displayed on your chart. These represent dynamic support and resistance levels that have been confirmed by underlying sentiment analysis. The histogram and oscillator calculations happen internally - your trading decisions should be based on price action around these validated levels.
Entry Strategies
Primary Strategy: Dynamic Support/Resistance Reversals
Setup : Wait for validated pivot with ✓ marker and strength rating displayed on chart
Entry Timing : Enter on the bar when validation occurs or on pullback to the validated level
Direction : Counter-trend to the validated extreme (buy at validated lows/support, sell at validated highs/resistance)
Confirmation : Look for strength rating above 60 for higher probability setups
Structure Context : Consider overall trend using HH/HL/LH/LL structure labels
Secondary Strategy: ZigZag Trend Continuation
Setup : Identify trend direction using consecutive validated highs and lows
Entry : Enter in trend direction when price pulls back to previous validated level
Confirmation : Look for structure labels confirming trend (HH/HL for uptrend, LH/LL for downtrend)
Strength Filter : Use strength ratings above 70 for trend continuation entries
Stop Loss Methodology
For Long Positions (Validated Lows) : Place stop below the validated low price level
For Short Positions (Validated Highs) : Place stop above the validated high price level
Alternative Method : Use previous validated extreme in opposite direction as stop level
Structure-Based Method : Use significant validated levels that would invalidate the trade setup
Buffer Consideration : Add small buffer beyond validated level to account for wicks and spread
Profit Taking Strategy
For Long Positions (Validated Low Entries):
Target 1 : Previous validated high shown on chart (75% of position)
Target 2 : Next significant validated high or key resistance level (50% of remaining 25% = 12.5% of original position)
Target 3 : Extended targets using ZigZag structure analysis and trend context (remaining 12.5% of original position)
Management : Move stop loss to breakeven once first target (TP1) is executed
For Short Positions (Validated High Entries):
Target 1 : Previous validated low shown on chart (75% of position)
Target 2 : Next significant validated low or key support level (50% of remaining 25% = 12.5% of original position)
Target 3 : Extended targets using ZigZag structure analysis and trend context (remaining 12.5% of original position)
Management : Move stop loss to breakeven once first target (TP1) is executed
ZigZag Structure Trading Approach
Sideways Markets : Trade between validated highs and lows - buy at support, sell at resistance
Trending Markets : Use validated levels as pullback entry points in trend direction
Structure Breaks : Watch for breaks of significant validated levels to signal trend changes
Range Identification : Use consecutive validated highs and lows to identify trading ranges
Breakout Trading : Enter when price breaks beyond validated levels with strong momentum
Strength Rating Interpretation
Understanding the 0-100 Strength Score
The strength rating combines multiple factors:
Base Strength (25 points) : Fundamental pivot validation
Wave Events (12 points each) : Number and quality of wave events detected
Trend Context (5-10 points) : Alignment with overall trend direction
Structure Quality (3-8 points) : HH/HL/LH/LL structure strength
Sentiment Position (5-10 points) : Extreme sentiment readings
Momentum Context (5 points) : Momentum divergence confirmation
Strength Categories
90-100 : Exceptional strength - Highest probability setups
75-89 : Strong signal - High confidence trades
60-74 : Good signal - Solid trading opportunities
45-59 : Moderate signal - Use additional confirmation
30-44 : Weak signal - Proceed with caution
Below 30 : Very weak - Generally avoid
Wave Event Reference (Calculation Background)
Understanding Wave Events in Strength Calculations
Wave events are used internally by Market Sentiment A to calculate strength ratings and validate pivots. While these events may appear in alert messages or tooltips, they are not meant for direct trading decisions - they are calculation components that contribute to the overall strength score.
Key Wave Events (For Reference Only)
MPIV↑/MPIV↓ : Momentum pivot detection used in validation process
HTURN : Histogram turn identification used for wave completion
TRI↑/TRI↓ : Triangle pattern detection contributing to strength calculation
SW : Small wave indication affecting pivot quality assessment
VOL : Volume spike detection adding to strength scoring
MDIV↑/MDIV↓ : Momentum divergence contributing to validation strength
HDIV↑/HDIV↓ : Histogram divergence used in pivot confirmation
PDIV↑/PDIV↓ : Price divergence analysis for strength enhancement
How Wave Events Affect Your Trading
Strength Score Impact : More events generally result in higher strength ratings for validated pivots
Alert Context : Events may be mentioned in alerts to provide background on signal quality
Focus on Results : Instead of analyzing individual events, focus on the final strength rating and validated pivot levels
Trust the System : The indicator processes these events automatically - your job is to trade the validated highs and lows

Use opposite validated pivots displayed on chart as primary targets
Execute Fundur 3-stage exit: 75% at TP1, 12.5% at TP2, 12.5% at TP3
Move stop loss to breakeven immediately after TP1 execution
Monitor strength ratings of new validated levels that could reverse remaining position
Watch for structure changes (trend breaks) via HH/HL/LH/LL labels for early exit consideration
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Signal Interpretation Errors
Don't trade potential turns without ✓ validation markers
Never ignore strength ratings below 45 - they indicate weak signals
Don't chase signals after significant movement away from validated levels
Avoid overriding clear ZigZag structure and trend context
Don't ignore the relationship between consecutive validated highs and lows
Risk Management Failures
Never risk more than the strength score suggests for position sizing
Don't move stops against validated levels - they represent key structure
Avoid oversizing on "sure thing" setups - even high-strength signals can fail
Don't ignore multiple timeframe validated level context
Never trade without clear invalidation levels (validated highs/lows for stops)
System Usage Mistakes
Don't enable all features immediately - start simple
Avoid changing speed settings mid-session
Don't ignore alert system capabilities
Never disable core validation features
Don't overlook customization for your chart setup

Custom ZigZag IndicatorOverview
The Custom ZigZag Indicator is a technical analysis tool built in Pine Script (version 5) for TradingView. It overlays on price charts to visualize market trends by connecting significant swing highs and lows, filtering out minor price noise. This helps identify the overall market direction (uptrends or downtrends), potential reversal points, and key support/resistance levels. Unlike standard price lines, it "zigzags" only between meaningful pivots, making trends clearer.
Core Logic and How It Works
The script uses a state-machine approach to track market direction and pivots:
Initialization
Starts assuming an upward trend on the first bar.
sets initial high/low prices and bar indices based on the current bar's high/low.
Direction Tracking:
Upward Trend (direction = 1):
Monitors for new highs: If the current high exceeds the tracked high, update the high price and bar.
Checks for reversal: If the low drops below the high by the deviation percentage (e.g., high * (1 - 0.05) for 5%), it signals a downtrend reversal.
Draws a green line from the last pivot (low) to the new high.
If labels are enabled, adds a label: "HH" (Higher High if above previous high), "LH" (Lower High if below), or "H" (for the first one).
Updates the last high and switches to downward direction.
Downward Trend (direction = -1):
Monitors for new lows: If the current low is below the tracked low, update the low price and bar.
Checks for reversal: If the high rises above the low by the deviation percentage (e.g., low * (1 + 0.05)), it signals an uptrend reversal.
Draws a red line from the last pivot (high) to the new low.
If labels are enabled, adds a label: "LL" (Lower Low if below previous low), "HL" (Higher Low if above), or "L" (for the first one).
Updates the last low and switches to upward direction.
Auto Harmonic Screener - UltimateX [Trendoscope®]🎲 Introduction to Auto Harmonic Screener UltimateX
The Auto Harmonic Screener UltimateX is a sophisticated TradingView indicator designed to automatically detect and screen for a wide range of harmonic patterns across multiple zigzag levels. It builds on the foundation of harmonic trading principles, using recursive zigzag analysis to identify potential reversal zones based on Fibonacci ratios. This indicator complements the Auto Harmonic Pattern UltimateX by focusing on screening functionality rather than isolated pattern detection. This is script is designed and optimized to be used with Pine Screener
The indicator produces harmonic patterns on the chart. As an indicator, it does not offer more than what Auto Harmonic Pattern UltimateX offers. However, the major difference is that Auto Harmonic Pattern UltimateX concentrates on the usage as indicator and providing stats and back test data based on historical patterns whereas this script is optimized to be used with Pine Screener to screen across 100s of symbols at once to find out potential patterns across the market.
🎲 Core Mechanics: How the Indicator Works
🎯 Zigzag Pivot Detection
The indicator starts by calculating zigzag pivots. Zigzag identifies swing highs and lows by filtering price movements based on a minimum length (default: 8 bars) and depth (default: 100 pivots).
You can opt to use close prices instead of high/low for zigzag calculation (via Use Close Prices ), which smooths out noise in volatile markets but may miss extreme swings.
Zigzag is recursive: It begins with a base level (level 0) and generates higher levels by combining pivots from lower levels. This allows scanning for patterns at various scales, from short-term to long-term structures.
New pivots trigger pattern scans only when confirmed
🎯 Harmonic Pattern Scanning
Patterns are scanned using the last 5 zigzag pivots: X (oldest), A, B, C, D (newest)
The scan compares price ratios (e.g., AB/XA, BC/AB, CD/BC, XD/XA) against predefined Fibonacci-based ranges for each pattern type, with an adjustable error threshold (default: 8%).
Log scale scanning (Scanning under Log Scale ) can be enabled for assets with exponential growth (e.g., cryptocurrencies), ensuring ratios are calculated proportionally.
Strict mode ( Strict Ratio Scanning Mode ) disables error additions when ratio ranges vary, prioritizing accuracy over quantity of detections.
Detected patterns are stored in an array and checked for duplicates (based on pivot indices) to avoid redundancy.
The Potential Reversal Zone (PRZ) is calculated as a range where the D point should land for pattern completion.
🎯 Pattern Categories and Types
Classic Patterns : Standard harmonic formations like Gartley, Bat, Butterfly, Crab, Deep Crab, Cypher, Shark, Nenstar,
Anti/Alternate Patterns : Variations with inverted or extended ratios, such as Anti Gartley, Anti Bat, Anti Butterfly, Anti Crab, Anti Cypher, Anti Shark, Anti Nenstar, Navarro.
Non-Standard Patterns : Less common structures like 5-0, Three Drives, or Black Swan, White Swan, 121, Sea Pony, Leonardo, Total.
You can enable/disable categories or individual patterns via inputs. The indicator uses a map to track active patterns and scans only those selected
🎯 Trade Monitoring and Confirmation
Patterns identified are monitored for entry, failure and success. Patterns are kept on the chart until they are either invalidated, stopped or reaches the target. The status of the pattern is also used during the filtering of patterns using Pine Screener
🎯 Output and Signals
The following plots are displayed in data window mode. These plots are used in Pine Screener for filtering symbols based on the presence of patterns.
Bullish (Awaiting Entry) : Plots 1 if there is a bullish pattern awaiting entry
Bullish (In Trade) : Plots 1 if there is a bullish pattern that has reached Entry and in trade.
Bearish (Awaiting Entry) : Plots 1 if there is a bearish pattern awaiting entry
Bearish (In Trade) : Plots 1 if there is a bearish pattern that has reached Entry and in trade.
🎲 Detailed Input Parameters
The indicator offers extensive customization through grouped inputs. Here's a breakdown:
🎯 Zigzag Parameters :
Use Close Prices (bool, default: false): Switches zigzag to use close prices for pivots, reducing sensitivity to wicks.
Length (int, default: 8, min: 3): Minimum bars between pivots; higher values filter more noise but may miss small patterns.
Depth (int, default: 100, max: 500): Maximum pivots stored; affects recursive zigzag levels and performance.
🎯 Generic Settings
Base (string, default: 'correction'): Determines the wave (impulse/correction) used for target projections. Options include 'min'/'max' for conservative/aggressive targets, or 'AD'/'CD' for specific legs.
Error Percent (int, default: 8, 0-20): Tolerance for ratio matches; lower = fewer but more accurate patterns.
Strict Ratio Scanning Mode (bool, default: false): Enforces exact ratios without error buffer for varying ranges.
Log Scale (two bools): Separate toggles for scanning patterns vs. projecting targets.
🎯 Trade Settings
Stop/Entry/Target (floats): Ratios for trade levels (stop=0.0 default, entry=0.3, target=0.618). Stop at 0.0 means no stop (use with caution); entry/target based on PRZ extension.
🎯 Display Settings
Draw (bool, default: true): Enables pattern drawings. When running in pine screener, this can be turned off
Theme (enum, default: DARK): Auto-generates colors (light/dark shades); or CUSTOM with 22 user-defined colors.
XABCD/Ratios (bools, default: true): Show/hide pivot labels and ratio annotations.
Label Size (string, default: small): Size for on-chart labels (tiny to huge).
🎲 Using with Pine Screener
Pine Screener is a powerful tradingview utility that allows users to build complex programmable screeners using Pinescript®. This script is designed in an optimized way in order to work with Pine Screener. Hence, the display of the indicator is limited. In order to use this script with pine screener, we need to follow these steps.
Prepare your watchlist
Pine screener works on a watchlist with less than 1000 symbols in them. We can use built-in tradingview screeners to perform initial screening based on broad categories. This can be as simple as filtering based on market cap. This initial filtering is only required if the number of symbols are more than 1000.
Load the watchlist and indicator to pine screener
Go to screener menu and load Pine Screener.
Once done, load the watchlist and indicator. Set filtering criteria, timeframe and indicator settings. And then press Scan to filter the symbols that match given criteria.

Zig-zag Sewing MachineIndicator Description: "Zig-zag Sewing Machine" 🧵
This indicator was created in honor of tailors and seamstresses, inspired by the zig-zag sewing machine. Just like the sewing machine needle stitches fabric back and forth, our “Zig-zag Sewing Machine” indicator visually stitches the chart by connecting the highs and lows of candles with lines that go up and down, forming a zig-zag pattern that makes it easier to see price pivots.
How it works:
The indicator identifies high and low pivots in the price, connecting them with colored lines — blue for upward trends and orange for downward trends — as if sewing points one by one, revealing the market’s up and down movements.
How to use:
The main parameter is the "Zigzag Length", which determines the sensitivity of the pivots.
When set to smaller values (for example, 1), the indicator is less sensitive, ideal for daily, weekly, and monthly charts, which are longer and slower timeframes. In this case, it filters noise better and shows more consistent moves.
On intraday charts, such as hourly, the recommended default value is 5, which captures pivots adequately for faster movements. Depending on the asset — especially cryptocurrencies, which have varied behaviors — this number can be adjusted up or down.
Remember: the smaller the number, the faster and more sensitive the indicator is, capturing smaller and more frequent oscillations; the larger the number, the slower and more filtered it is, suitable for broader and more stable movements.
Tips for use:
Use the indicator to identify reversal points and trend confirmations by observing how the zig-zag lines “sew” the chart.
Combine with other indicators to increase the reliability of entries and exits.
Adjust the length parameter according to the volatility and timeframe of the asset you trade.

DualWave Trend Signal [Auto1491]📘 English Description
DualWave Trend Signal is a trend-following indicator based on dual-layer dynamic price zones.
It computes two independent high/low ranges:
Outer Range (Z): a longer-term view of market extremes
Inner Range (Z1): a shorter-term perspective to refine entry/exit signals
The indicator dynamically adjusts two trend lines, then determines whether the price action confirms a bullish, bearish, or neutral trend. BUY and SELL signals are visualized on the chart, and bar colors reflect trend direction for quick reference.
✅ Features:
Dual-band price range logic for trend detection
Dynamic trend line adjustment based on historical highs/lows
Visual buy/sell signals at key inflection points
Color-coded bars: green (bullish), red (bearish), unchanged (neutral)
Real-time label showing the current market condition
🎯 How to Use:
Bullish when close > outer trend AND inner trend
Bearish when close < outer trend AND inner trend
Neutral otherwise
Entry signals appear on the first bar confirming a trend change
Suitable for intraday traders and scalpers in high-volatility markets like gold, forex, and indices.
📙 中文說明
