Williams Fractals and AlligatorThe "Williams Fractals and Alligator" indicator is a technical analysis tool that combines two essential concepts: Williams Fractals and the Alligator oscillator, which help traders identify potential reversal points and trends in price action.
Components of the Indicator:
Fractals:
Definition: Fractals are patterns that indicate price reversals. An up fractal is formed when there is a high point surrounded by lower highs, while a down fractal is formed with a low point surrounded by higher lows.
User Input: The user can define the period for identifying fractals via an input parameter (n). The default value is set to 2.
Calculation Logic: The indicator uses nested loops to compare the current price against previous and subsequent prices based on the specified period. If the conditions for a fractal are met, it generates a signal.
Alligator:
Definition: The Alligator indicator consists of three lines: the Jaw, Teeth, and Lips, which represent different smoothed moving averages of the price.
User Input: Users can customize the length and offset of each of the Alligator lines:
Jaw Length: Default value of 13
Teeth Length: Default value of 8
Lips Length: Default value of 5
Offsets for each line adjust how far ahead the lines are plotted.
Calculation Logic: The indicator employs a custom Smoothed Moving Average (SMMA) function to calculate the values of the Jaw, Teeth, and Lips using the price source (typically the average of the high and low).
Plotting:
The indicator plots up fractals as upward triangles above the price bars (in teal) and down fractals as downward triangles below the price bars (in red).
The Alligator lines are plotted in different colors:
Jaw: Blue
Teeth: Red
Lips: Green
Each line is plotted with the ability to offset visually on the chart.
Purpose of the Indicator:
The primary use of this indicator is to identify potential entry and exit points in trading based on the fractal patterns while considering the prevailing trend indicated by the Alligator’s three lines.
Up fractals may signal potential buy opportunities, especially when positioned in an uptrend indicated by the Alligator lines.
Conversely, down fractals may signal potential sell opportunities, particularly in a downtrend.
Conclusion:
The "Williams Fractals and Alligator" indicator serves as a comprehensive tool for traders, combining fractal-based reversal signals with trend-following dynamics through the Alligator oscillator, thereby enhancing decision-making in trading strategies.

Williams Fractals for ExtremesThis script, written in Pine Script (version 5), implements an indicator for the automatic detection and visualization of fractal extremes on the price chart. The core algorithm is based on Bill Williams' fractal theory and identifies local highs and lows, which are often used to determine potential reversal points and support/resistance levels in the market.
### Key Features:
#### Fractal Detection:
- The indicator identifies a fractal high if the middle candle in a sequence of five candles (two on the left and two on the right) has the highest value.
- A fractal low is identified if the middle candle in the same type of five-candle sequence has the lowest value.
#### Extreme Visualization:
- Fractal highs are displayed as red dots on the chart, signaling potential local peaks.
- Fractal lows are shown as green dots, indicating local troughs.
### Usage:
- The indicator is designed for use across all timeframes and can be applied to both cryptocurrency and traditional financial markets.
- Highlighted points allow traders to quickly spot key levels, aiding in identifying potential zones for trade entry or exit.
### Application in Trading:
#### Identifying Key Levels:
- Fractal highs and lows can serve as resistance and support levels. A breakout beyond a fractal in either direction may signal a continuation of movement in that direction.
#### Finding Reversal Points:
- Fractal extremes indicate potential market reversals, making them useful in counter-trend trading strategies.
#### Adaptability to Market Conditions:
- The indicator updates dynamically with the appearance of new candles, providing traders with real-time fractal extreme levels.
### Settings and Parameters:
- In its current version, the script does not include customizable settings as it implements the standard concept of Williams' fractals.
Fractal Trend Detector [Skyrexio]Introduction
Fractal Trend Detector leverages the combination of Williams fractals and Alligator Indicator to help traders to understand with the high probability what is the current trend: bullish or bearish. It visualizes the potential uptrend with the coloring bars in green, downtrend - in red color. Indicator also contains two additional visualizations, the strong uptrend and downtrend as the green and red zones and the white line - trend invalidation level (more information in "Methodology and it's justification" paragraph)
Features
Optional strong up and downtrends visualization: with the specified parameter in settings user can add/hide the green and red zones of the strong up and downtrends.
Optional trend invalidation level visualization: with the specified parameter in settings user can add/hide the white line which shows the current trend invalidation price.
Alerts: user can set up the alert and have notifications when uptrend/downtrend has been started, strong uptrend/downtrend started.
Methodology and it's justification
In this script we apply the concept of trend given by Bill Williams in his book "Trading Chaos". This approach leverages the Alligator and Fractals in conjunction. Let's briefly explain these two components.
The Williams Alligator, created by Bill Williams, is a technical analysis tool used to identify trends and potential market reversals. It consists of three moving averages, called the jaw, teeth, and lips, which represent different time periods:
Jaw (Blue Line): The slowest line, showing a 13-period smoothed moving average shifted 8 bars forward.
Teeth (Red Line): The medium-speed line, an 8-period smoothed moving average shifted 5 bars forward.
Lips (Green Line): The fastest line, a 5-period smoothed moving average shifted 3 bars forward.
When the lines are spread apart and aligned, the "alligator" is "awake," indicating a strong trend. When the lines intertwine, the "alligator" is "sleeping," signaling a non-trending or range-bound market. This indicator helps traders identify when to enter or avoid trades.
Williams Fractals, introduced by Bill Williams, are a technical analysis tool used to identify potential reversal points on a price chart. A fractal is a series of at least five consecutive bars where the middle bar has the highest high (for a up fractal) or the lowest low (for a down fractal), compared to the two bars on either side.
Key Points:
Up fractal: Formed when the middle bar shows a higher high than the two preceding and two following bars, signaling a potential turning point downward.
Down fractal: Formed when the middle bar has a lower low than the two surrounding bars, indicating a potential upward reversal.
Fractals are often used with other indicators to confirm trend direction or reversal, helping traders make more informed trading decisions.
How we can use its combination? Let's explain the uptrend example. The up fractal breakout to the upside can be interpret as bullish sign, there is a high probability that uptrend has just been started. It can be explained as following: the up fractal created is the potential change in market's behavior. A lot of traders made a decision to sell and it created the pullback with the fractal at the top. But if price is able to reach the fractal's top and break it, this is a high probability sign that market "changed his opinion" and bullish trend has been started. The moment of breaking is the potential changing to the uptrend. Here is another one important point, this breakout shall happen above the Alligator's teeth line. If not, this crossover doesn't count and the downtrend potentially remaining. The inverted logic is true for the down fractals and downtrend.
According to this methodology we received the high probability up and downtrend changes, but we can even add it. If current trend established by the indicator as the uptrend and alligator's lines have the following order: lips is higher than teeth, teeth is higher than jaw, script count it as a strong uptrend and start print the green zone - zone between lips and jaw. It can be used as a high probability support of the current bull market. The inverted logic can be used for bearish trend and red zones: if lips is lower than teeth and teeth is lower than jaw it's interpreted by the indicator as a strong down trend.
Indicator also has the trend invalidation line (white line). If current bar is green and market condition is interpreted by the script as an uptrend you will see the invalidation line below current price. This is the price level which shall be crossed by the price to change up trend to down trend according to algorithm. This level is recalculated on every candle. The inverted logic is valid for downtrend.
How to use indicator
Apply it to desired chart and time frame. It works on every time frame.
Setup the settings with enabling/disabling visualization of strong up/downtrend zones and trend invalidation line. "Show Strong Bullish/Bearish Trends" and "Show Trend Invalidation Price" checkboxes in the settings. By default they are turned on.
Analyze the price action. Indicator colored candle in green if it's more likely that current state is uptrend, in red if downtrend has the high probability to be now. Green zones between two lines showing if current uptrend is likely to be strong. This zone can be used as a high probability support on the uptrend. The red zone show high probability of strong downtrend and can be used as a resistance. White line is showing the level where uptrend or downtrend is going be invalidated according to indicator's algorithm. If current bar is green invalidation line will be below the current price, if red - above the current price.
Set up the alerts if it's needed. Indicator has four custom alerts called "Uptrend has been started" when current bar closed as green and the previous was not green, "Downtrend has been started" when current bar closed red and the previous was not red, "Uptrend became strong" if script started printing the green zone "Downtrend became strong" if script started printing the red zone.

HTF LQ SweepThe following script recognises QL sweeps in the desired time frame with alarm function!
Theory:
There is liquidity above highs and below lows. If this is tapped and the market reacts strongly immediately, the probability of a reversal is greatly increased! In the chart, this is defined in such a way that a candle has its wicks BELOW the old low, but the close is ABOVE the old low. the same applies to the high, of course!
In such a case we have an "LQ Sweep"
How does the script work?
Williams 3 fractals are used as a basis. These are meaningful as lows or highs. Whenever a fractal is created, the price level is saved.
This means that not only the last fractal is relevant, but all historical fractals as long as they have not been reached!
If a candle reaches the level, but shows a rejection and closes within the level again, we have our "LQ Sweep" setup.
In the script you can select the timeframe in which the market has to be analysed. When the QL sweep occurs, an alert is triggered. This saves a lot of time because you can analyse different markets in different timeframes at the same time!
Each QL Sweep is marked in the chart when we are in the selected timeframe. These can also be deactivated so that only the last sweep is displayed.
Benefits for the trader:
An LQ sweep is a nice confirmation for a reversal.
If we have such an LQ sweep, we can wait in the lower timeframe for further confirmation, such as a structural break, to position our entries there.
The alarm function saves us a lot of time and we only go to the chart when a potential setup has been created.
You can set different time frames in the script: The selected time frame is then scanned and sends a signal when the event occurs.
Correct Fractal Swings by CRYPTOFORThis indicator adjusts and enhances the normal 3-fractal swing. The author of this definition, uncle_travis, takes into account swings with the absorption of 3 candles and uses them as structure points.
Pivotal MomentsPivotal Moments draws lines for each of up to 500 pivot high and pivot low levels that have never been revisited at the present moment in time. After the Pivotal Moments indicator has been loaded onto chart and any of the subsequent realtime bars that are formed touch or cross a pivot level it is deleted. The duration for how long any touched or crossed pivot levels remain on chart before deletion may be extended by N bars or N units of time.
There are user selectable options for the following:
• Pivot Bars Left : the number of lower highs or higher lows that must be formed before a possible pivot bar can occur.
• Right : the number of lower highs or higher lows that must be formed after potential pivot to validate a pivot bar.
• Lines Show As : the choice of line style to use for the drawn pivot levels includes Dashed, Dotted, or Solid.
• Wide : the number of lines wide for how thick the drawn pivot levels are desired to be on the chart.
• Delay Removal : the number of units that touched or crossed pivot levels will persist on chart.
• Units : the choice of which delay unit type includes nBars, nSecs, nMins, nHrs, or nDays.
• Extend Right : the number of bars right of current bar to extend drawn pivot levels.
• Show : the number of maximum recent drawn pivot levels to keep on chart.
• Colors Used : the colors used for pivots high, low, and dual pivot bars.
• Show Price Labels : the choice whether to show prices for levels.
• On Right : the choice to move prices to right of pivot levels.
• Show Pivot Bars : the choice to colorize pivot bars.
If desired, alerts can be received for whenever new touches or crosses occur for both pivot highs and pivot lows by creating a single Alert. Note that these alerts are triggered by realtime bars which by their very nature are repainting prices, thus the alert creation window will warn of this with an orange exclamation symbol.

Support & Resistance ZonesTitle: A Comprehensive Guide to the Support & Resistance Zones Indicator
Introduction
In the world of technical analysis, the Support & Resistance Zones indicator plays a crucial role in identifying potential trading opportunities. These zones are essential for traders looking to capitalize on bounces or break and retests. In this article, we will delve into the specifics of the Support & Resistance Zones indicator, outlining how it works, how it finds and marks zones, and the various options available for traders.
What the indicator is about
The Support & Resistance Zones indicator, developed by @HarryCTC, is a powerful tool for detecting areas of potential price reversal or consolidation in a financial market. These zones are significant as they can act as a guide for traders to make informed decisions on entering or exiting positions. Specifically, the indicator helps identify:
1. Support Zones: Areas where the price has a tendency to bounce back up after falling, indicating a potential buying opportunity.
2. Resistance Zones: Areas where the price has a tendency to reverse after rising, indicating a potential selling opportunity.
How the indicator finds its zones
The Support & Resistance Zones indicator utilizes pivot points to identify potential support and resistance levels. By analyzing the fractal structure of the price chart, the indicator identifies key turning points, known as bull and bear fractals. The bull fractal is a high pivot point, while the bear fractal is a low pivot point.
The fractal structure is determined by the 'Switch Zone Period' input, which can be adjusted to suit the trader's preferences. A higher value will result in fewer zones being identified, while a lower value will result in more zones.
How it marks zones and why it marks zones
The indicator marks the support and resistance zones by creating rectangular boxes around the identified fractal points. The zones are extended horizontally from the fractal point, allowing traders to visualize the potential areas of price reversal.
The zones are marked for the following reasons:
1. To provide a clear visual representation of potential support and resistance levels.
2. To help traders identify potential entry and exit points based on the price's reaction to these zones.
3. To serve as a reference for stop-loss and take-profit levels when planning trades.
The indicator's for traders trading bounces or break and retests
Traders who focus on trading bounces or break and retests can benefit immensely from the Support & Resistance Zones indicator. By providing a visual representation of key support and resistance levels, the indicator enables traders to:
1. Identify potential buying opportunities at support zones where the price is likely to bounce back up.
2. Identify potential selling opportunities at resistance zones where the price is likely to reverse after rising.
3. Make informed decisions on stop-loss and take-profit levels based on the price's proximity to support and resistance zones.
4. Monitor the market for potential breakouts or breakdowns when the price breaches these zones.
Indicator options
The Support & Resistance Zones indicator offers several customizable options to suit the trader's preferences. These options include:
1. Switch Zone Period: Adjusts the number of periods used to calculate the fractal structure, influencing the number of identified zones.
2. No. of Displayed Zones: Determines the maximum number of zones displayed on the chart, ranging from 1 to 8.
3. Zone Extension: Adjusts the horizontal extension of the support and resistance zones.
4. Resistance Zone Color: Customizes the color of the resistance zone boxes.
5. Support Zone Color: Customizes the color of the support zone boxes.
6. Zone Border Color: Customizes the color of the zone box borders.
Conclusion
The Support & Resistance Zones indicator is a valuable tool for traders looking to identify potential trading opportunities based on the price's interaction with support and resistance levels. By providing a clear visual representation of these zones, the
indicator allows traders to make informed decisions on entry and exit points, stop-loss, and take-profit levels. With customizable options, the indicator can be tailored to suit individual trading preferences and strategies.
Fractals PivotsWhich trader does not know pivots? There are a lot of varieties of pivots indicators of which some are a default on most trading platforms. So what better way to challenge yourself then to create your own kind of pivots. Let's welcome the idea of Fractal Pivots.
Williams Fractal or fractals is a technical analysis indicator introduced by the famous trader Bill Williams in his book ‘Trading Chaos’. He developed it on the basis of the Chaos Theory and trading psychology. The indicator is centred around the idea that there is repetition in price behaviour and fractals can provide an insight into those repetitive patterns.
How does the indicator turn these into pivot lines?
The user will set a time period in which the script will look for fractals. It will then remember all the fractals that happen during that time period.
Let's say you are trading the hourly chart with a weekly pivot setting like in the chart this script is published on. The script will highling the 1h fractals that are happening. Then the next week it will use these exact fractals from previous week to draw the pivot lines.
Another example here is an 8h chart. Look how it uses the previous week fractals this week.
Let me know if you find a very great fractal length+timeframe setting where the levels really get respected. I would really appreciate that.
[JL] Fractals ATR BlockI decided to combine Fractal ROC , ATR Break, and Order Blocks to an Indicator
The Fractal ROC , ATR Break, and Order Blocks indicator combines three concepts to help traders identify potential trade opportunities and manage risk. By using a combination of Fractal ROC , ATR Break, and Order Blocks, traders can gain a deeper understanding of market dynamics and make more informed trading decisions.
Fractal ROC is a momentum-based indicator that calculates the rate of change of the price between fractals, which are turning points in the market. It is calculated by taking the difference between the closing price and the lowest price in the previous n+1 periods, and dividing it by the difference between the open price 2n periods ago and the lowest price in the previous n+1 periods. This calculation is done for both up and down fractals. When the Fractal ROC value is greater than the ROC Break Level (as determined by the input variable roclevel), it indicates a potential momentum shift in the market. This can be used to identify potential trade entries or exits, depending on your trading strategy.
ATR Break is an indicator that helps traders identify significant price movements in the market. It measures the distance between the price and the Average True Range (ATR), which is a measure of the volatility of the market. ATR Break is calculated by taking the difference between the close and high/low, and dividing it by the previous ATR value. This calculation is done for both up and down movements. When the ATR Break value is greater than the ATR Break Level (as determined by the input variable atrlevel), it indicates a significant move in the market. This can be used to identify potential breakouts or breakdowns, and can be used to set stop-loss and take-profit levels.
An Order Block is a price level where significant buying or selling activity has taken place. The order blocks made by ATR Break and Fractal ROC are drawn using boxes on the chart. When the ATR or Fractal ROC level is breached, a box is drawn with the high and low of the candle that breached the level as the top and bottom of the box, respectively. The box is then extended to the right until the end of the chart or until another ATR or Fractal ROC level is breached, at which point a new box is drawn. This allows traders to easily identify significant price movements and potential support and resistance levels on the chart. When an Order Block is identified, it can be used as a potential support or resistance level . If price approaches an Order Block from below, it is likely to bounce off this level and continue in an upward direction. Similarly, if price approaches an Order Block from above, it is likely to bounce off this level and continue in a downward direction. Traders can use these levels to identify potential trade entries or exits, as well as to set stop-loss and take-profit levels.
Overall, the Fractal ROC , ATR Break, and Order Blocks indicator is a powerful tool for traders who want to identify potential trade opportunities and manage risk. By combining these three concepts, traders can gain a deeper understanding of market dynamics and make more informed trading decisions. As with any indicator, it is important to use it in conjunction with other analysis tools and to have a clear trading plan in place.
End-pointed SSA of Williams %R [Loxx]End-pointed SSA of Williams %R is an indicator that runes Williams %R SSA calculation through a Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA) algorithm to derive a smoother final output. The reduction in noise from the traditional Williams %R is significant.
What is Williams %R?
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 may 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. It was developed by Larry Williams and it compares a stock’s closing price to the high-low range over a specific period, typically 14 days or periods.
What is Singular Spectrum Analysis ( SSA )?
Singular spectrum analysis ( SSA ) is a technique of time series analysis and forecasting. It combines elements of classical time series analysis, multivariate statistics, multivariate geometry, dynamical systems and signal processing. SSA aims at decomposing the original series into a sum of a small number of interpretable components such as a slowly varying trend, oscillatory components and a ‘structureless’ noise. It is based on the singular value decomposition ( SVD ) of a specific matrix constructed upon the time series. Neither a parametric model nor stationarity-type conditions have to be assumed for the time series. This makes SSA a model-free method and hence enables SSA to have a very wide range of applicability.
For our purposes here, we are only concerned with the "Caterpillar" SSA . This methodology was developed in the former Soviet Union independently (the ‘iron curtain effect’) of the mainstream SSA . The main difference between the main-stream SSA and the "Caterpillar" SSA is not in the algorithmic details but rather in the assumptions and in the emphasis in the study of SSA properties. To apply the mainstream SSA , one often needs to assume some kind of stationarity of the time series and think in terms of the "signal plus noise" model (where the noise is often assumed to be ‘red’). In the "Caterpillar" SSA , the main methodological stress is on separability (of one component of the series from another one) and neither the assumption of stationarity nor the model in the form "signal plus noise" are required.
"Caterpillar" SSA
The basic "Caterpillar" SSA algorithm for analyzing one-dimensional time series consists of:
Transformation of the one-dimensional time series to the trajectory matrix by means of a delay procedure (this gives the name to the whole technique);
Singular Value Decomposition of the trajectory matrix;
Reconstruction of the original time series based on a number of selected eigenvectors.
This decomposition initializes forecasting procedures for both the original time series and its components. The method can be naturally extended to multidimensional time series and to image processing.
The method is a powerful and useful tool of time series analysis in meteorology, hydrology, geophysics, climatology and, according to our experience, in economics, biology, physics, medicine and other sciences; that is, where short and long, one-dimensional and multidimensional, stationary and non-stationary, almost deterministic and noisy time series are to be analyzed.

Swing PointsEnglish:
The indicator shows the fractals where stop-losses may be located and can be used to trade from their taking.
You can adjust the length of the fractal (the number of bars with which it is surrounded on both sides, to confirm the validity).
You can also display lines from fractal points for clarity.
To keep the chart clean, you can enable deletion of already taken fractals.
Example of use with deleted fractals and without lines:
Русский:
Индикатор показывает фракталы где могут находиться стоп-лоссы и его можно использовать для торговли от их снятия.
Можно настраивать длину фрактала (количество баров, которыми он окружен с обеих сторон, для подтверждения валидности).
Так же можно выводить линии от фрактальных точек для наглядности.
Для сохранения чистоты графика можно включить удаление уже снятых фракталов.
Пример использования с удалением снятых фракталов и без линий:
Smaller Fractals (+ Transparency)Smaller Fractals (+ Transparency)
I find that fractals are super useful, but can visually clutter up the chart pretty quickly. Their opaqueness and just overall bigness can become a bit much.
As such, these are just like regular fractals, only smaller (pine script's`size.tiny` instead of the default `size.small`).
Also, you can set a transparency level to these little guys (default is 50%).
Simple, more polite, and hopefully more useful fractals for those wnting a cleaner looking chart. 😁

[VDB]TrendScalp-FractalBox-3EMAThere are many indicators with William’s Fractal and Alligator. As many use EMA’s it may be useful to define a 3-EMA ribbon and combining Fractal Levels/Box (filling background between top and bottom fractals) for trend scalping. I searched for this kind of indicator in community – some show fractals, some just levels, some with alligator etc. but couldn't find the one needed. Hence thought of this indicator which may be of interest to other users too.
Key Points:
EMA ribbon is created using 3 EMA’s 35/70/105. Users can change these as per their preference. This is used for trend identification – 1. Bullish bias if Price > EMA1 > EMA2 > EMA3. 2. Bearish bias if Price < EMA1 < EMA2 < EMA3.
Background is marked during crossing of EMA1 and EMA2 to alert possible trend change.
5-bar fractals are used to mark the Fractal levels and background between top and bottom fractals are filled to create a Fractal Box.
Fractal levels are marked only when the fractal formation is complete. Given offset is used this is lagging.
How to Use:
Sloping EMA ribbon is used for identifying the trend.
Fractal box break-out/ break-downs are used to trigger the trade with fractal high/low for entry/SL. Waiting for price contraction towards EMA ribbon resulting in smaller boxes is key to initiate trade. Avoid bigger boxes as SL’s will be big and price may move within. To draw the vertical lines of FractalBox change fractal level0 style to step-line.
This indicator combined with the cycle high/low (overbought/oversold) indicators such as CCI/Stochastic/RSI etc. can make it a good trend scalping setup while trading in the direction of momentum in higher timeframe.
This setup could be used for any timeframes. Do your back-testing before using it in live market.
This indicator was achieved by combing some fractal ideas from “Fractal and Alligator Alerts by JustUncleL”

SL Hunter Tracker SL Hunter Tracker
coded by Bogdan Vaida
SL Hunter Tracker is a meticulous hunter that tracks SL hunters.
First it plots the fractals on the chart, then it draws lines from them
to the last wick that touched that height. You can add sweep alerts, once
per bar close, so that you get notified when a wick was touched.
Tested on: EURUSD 30'
OS FractalsAn up fractal is formed when a high is both preceded and followed by lower highs. A down fractal is formed when a low is both preceded and followed by higher lows.
Bill Williams uses a period of 2 (2 after and 2 before) to define a fractal. This indicator has 2 as default but lets you decide the range you want.
The indicator lets you also select alerts when price crosses an up of down fractal, which would usually mean to entry a position. This indicator works best when used with an alligator, as long signals are valid above the Balance Line and short signals are valid when triggered below the Balance Line.
Any comments for improvement are welcome.
