[ A L P H A X ] CADENCE - Elliott Wave + Fibonacci + StructureAlphaX CADENCE — Elliott Wave + Fibonacci + Market Structure Engine: Live W2/W4 Golden Zone Pullbacks, W3 Momentum Breakout, RSI Divergence Exit Warnings & Fibonacci Extension Targets
AlphaX CADENCE is a professional-grade Elliott Wave and Fibonacci confluence system built around the most powerful and time-tested framework in technical analysis — the five-wave impulse and three-wave corrective structure that governs institutional price delivery across all timeframes and all markets. Where most Elliott Wave indicators focus on labeling historical waves after the fact, CADENCE is engineered for live trade execution : it identifies the current wave phase in real time, marks the active golden Fibonacci pullback zone, and fires entry signals at the precise moment price enters the optimal entry window with market structure, higher timeframe bias, volume, and momentum confirmation all aligned. Four setup types — Wave 2 Golden Zone, Wave 4 Golden Zone, Wave 3 Momentum Breakout, and ABC Correction End — cover both pullback and breakout entries within the Elliott Wave framework. A dedicated RSI divergence exit warning system alerts you to potential Wave 5 exhaustion before the reversal strikes. Fibonacci extension targets (TP1 at Wave 1 high, TP2 at 1.618× extension) are computed automatically from the identified impulse leg. Designed for traders who want the rigor of Elliott Wave theory applied with quantitative precision, across crypto, forex, gold, and indices on any timeframe.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
〰 The Elliott Wave Framework — Why Institutional Price Moves in Waves
Elliott Wave theory is one of the oldest and most institutionally respected frameworks in technical analysis. Its core observation is that market prices do not move randomly — they move in structured, repeating patterns that reflect the collective psychology of all participants. The primary pattern is the five-wave impulse:
Impulse wave structure (bull):
Wave 0 → Wave 1: The initial impulse move — institutions begin accumulating, price moves sharply higher
Wave 1 → Wave 2: The first pullback — retail traders who missed the initial move sell back gains; Wave 2 never fully retraces Wave 1
Wave 2 → Wave 3: The most powerful wave — institutional participation accelerates, Wave 3 is typically the longest and strongest impulse
Wave 3 → Wave 4: A corrective pullback after Wave 3's extension, typically shallower than Wave 2; Wave 4 never enters Wave 1's territory in a valid impulse
Wave 4 → Wave 5: The final impulse leg, often accompanied by declining momentum and RSI divergence as the move exhausts
Why the golden zone matters: Waves 2 and 4 are the pullback waves — the retracement phases where price temporarily retreats before the next impulse. The Fibonacci golden zone (61.8%–38.2% retracement of the prior wave) is where these pullbacks most frequently terminate and reverse. Entering at the golden zone means entering with the lowest possible risk relative to the impulse target — the tight stop is at the wave invalidation level, and the target is the next wave's extension.
CADENCE is built to detect when the market is in a Wave 2 or Wave 4 pullback, when price has entered the golden zone, and when a qualified rejection candle confirms the reversal — producing entries at the statistically optimal Fibonacci reversal level within a confirmed Elliott Wave structure.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🌊 The Wave Engine — Pivot-Based Leg Classification
CADENCE uses a real-time swing pivot detection system to classify the current Elliott Wave phase from confirmed price structure. On every bar, confirmed fractal pivot highs and lows are collected into a rolling swing array (configurable depth, default: 8 swings). The alternating sequence of highs and lows is then pattern-matched against Elliott Wave leg configurations.
3-swing classification (W2 phase):
When the three most recent confirmed swings form the pattern Low → High → Low (for bull impulse), CADENCE identifies:
W0 at the first low (impulse origin)
W1 at the high (impulse peak)
W2 in progress at the current low (the pullback)
If W1 is above W0 (valid impulse direction), the wave phase is classified as W2 PULL — the system is watching for the golden zone entry.
5-swing classification (W4 phase):
When five confirmed swings form Low → High → Low → High → Low (bull), CADENCE identifies all five wave points (W0 through W4). When W3 is above W1 (confirming the wave hierarchy) and W1 is above W0, the phase is classified as W4 PULL — the system is watching for the Wave 4 golden zone entry before the final Wave 5 push.
Wave phase display: The current wave phase is displayed prominently on the dashboard as W2 PULL, W4 PULL, CORR, or SCAN. This single row tells you exactly where CADENCE believes the market is in its current impulse cycle.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📐 Fibonacci Golden Zone — The Optimal Entry Window
The Fibonacci golden zone is the price range between the 38.2% and 61.8% retracement of the prior impulse wave. This zone, sometimes called the "golden pocket," represents the most common termination range for corrective waves within a healthy impulse structure.
Wave 2 golden zone calculation:
Zone top = W1 − (W1 − W0) × 38.2%
Zone bottom = W1 − (W1 − W0) × 61.8%
Three Fibonacci levels displayed: 38.2% (dotted), 50.0% (solid, the equilibrium), 61.8% (dotted)
Wave 4 golden zone calculation:
Computed from the W2 → W3 leg rather than the W0 → W1 leg, reflecting that Wave 4 corrects Wave 3 specifically:
Zone top = W3 − (W3 − W2) × 38.2%
Zone bottom = W3 − (W3 − W2) × 61.8%
Golden zone visualization:
A semi-transparent box spans the golden zone from the prior wave's start bar to 15 bars beyond the current bar. Yellow-green for bull zones, red for bear zones. The box extends forward in real time — you can see the target zone approaching as price pulls back toward it.
In-zone detection:
Price is considered inside the golden zone when the bar's low (bull) or high (bear) reaches within the zone boundaries AND the candle closes on the correct side of the zone. The close-inside condition ensures the touch is a genuine rejection from within the zone rather than a pass-through.
Live Fibonacci levels:
The 38.2%, 50%, and 61.8% retracement lines are plotted from the Wave 1 pivot bar to 15 bars beyond current, updating in real time as the wave structure develops. The 50% line is plotted as a brighter solid line — the golden pocket midpoint.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🏷 Four Live Setup Types
CADENCE fires signals through four distinct entry setups, each targeting a specific phase of the Elliott Wave cycle. Each has different risk/reward characteristics and different position within the wave sequence.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
W2 Golden Zone — Wave 2 Pullback Entry
The most frequent high-conviction setup. Fires when price retraces into the 38.2%–61.8% golden zone of Wave 1 during an identified Wave 2 correction.
Full conditions for long:
Bull impulse identified (three-swing pattern W0→W1→W2)
Wave phase is W2 PULL
Market structure is bullish (or HTF is bullish as a fallback)
The bar's low has entered the golden zone (between 38.2% and 61.8% retracement)
The bar closes above the zone bottom — confirming rejection, not breakdown
Wave 2 (the pullback) is holding above Wave 0 (the impulse origin) — the Elliott Wave rule that W2 never fully retraces W1 is validated
The impulse leg (W1 − W0) is at least the minimum size (default: 1.0× ATR) — filtering micro-waves
A qualifying bull trigger candle (rejection wick above 48% of range or bullish engulfing) is present
Stop placement: Below the minimum of W2 and W0 (the prior impulse origin) plus the ATR buffer. If price violates Wave 0, the impulse structure is invalid by Elliott Wave rules.
Targets: TP1 at W1 (the prior wave high); TP2 at the close plus 1.618× the impulse leg distance.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
W4 Golden Zone — Wave 4 Pullback Entry
The higher-conviction pullback setup. Wave 4 occurs after Wave 3 — the strongest and longest wave — has completed. The W4 correction offers the final opportunity to enter before Wave 5.
Key differences from W2:
Requires confirmed market structure (structure == 1 for bull, not just HTF fallback) — Wave 4 entries demand structural confirmation
Golden zone is computed from the W2 → W3 leg (correcting Wave 3, not Wave 1)
Requires five confirmed swings (W0 through W4) — a more mature wave count
Why W4 is high-conviction: By the time a Wave 4 is identifiable, the impulse sequence has completed three waves with Wave 3 confirming above Wave 1. The institutional participants who accumulated during Wave 2 are in strong profit and will add to positions during Wave 4. The golden zone for Wave 4 is the most actively defended pullback level in the entire five-wave sequence.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
W3 Momentum Breakout — Wave 3 Entry
The highest-momentum setup. Fires when price breaks above the Wave 1 high (bull) or below the Wave 1 low (bear) during a Wave 2 or Wave 4 pullback phase — the moment Wave 3 begins.
Long conditions:
Wave phase is W2 PULL or W4 PULL (the correction is completing)
Price closes above the last identified swing high (the Wave 1 level) in a single bar
The prior bar was at or below the breakout level
Market structure is bullish
Impulse leg size meets the minimum threshold
The W3 breakout philosophy: The Wave 3 breakout is the moment institutional participation accelerates explosively — the "Wall of Worry" is cleared and the crowd that was short begins covering. Entering at this exact bar captures the beginning of the fastest and largest wave of the impulse. The risk is paying a higher price than the golden zone pullback entries, but the momentum confirmation is unambiguous.
Target for W3 entries: TP1 is at entry + the full impulse leg distance (projecting a Wave 3 equal to Wave 1); TP2 is at the 1.618× extension.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
ABC Correction End — Three-Wave Reversal Entry
The counter-trend corrective setup. Disabled by default — the lower-conviction alternate wave scenario. Fires when a three-wave ABC correction retraces to the 61.8% level of the prior impulse with a rejection candle.
ABC conditions (bull):
Three-swing pattern confirms an ABC correction structure (Low → High → Low within a bull structure)
Price reaches the 61.8% retracement of the A leg from the B peak
Close recovers back above the 61.8% level
Bull trigger candle confirms
Why ABC is off by default: ABC entries are counter-corrective — they attempt to catch the end of a pullback at a single Fibonacci level without the full five-wave context. They work well when the prior impulse was clean and the ABC is proportional, but carry higher failure rates in choppy or range-bound conditions. Enable this setup only after studying its behavior on your specific instrument and timeframe.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚠ W5 RSI Divergence Exit Warning System
One of CADENCE's most valuable risk management features is the dedicated Wave 5 exhaustion detection system. When price is making new highs in a bull structure but the RSI is simultaneously making lower highs — a classic bearish divergence — the system plots small orange circles above the relevant bars as exit warnings.
How the divergence is detected:
Using confirmed pivot highs and lows from both price and RSI, CADENCE identifies:
Bearish divergence (bull W5 exhaustion): Price's pivot high exceeds the prior pivot high, but RSI's corresponding pivot is below its prior reading — price strength is not confirmed by momentum
Bullish divergence (bear W5 exhaustion): Price's pivot low is below the prior low, but RSI's reading is above its prior — selling momentum is fading at lower prices
Why W5 divergence is the most important Elliott Wave exit signal: Wave 5 is structurally the most exhausted wave — it occurs after four prior waves have already moved in the impulse direction, and is frequently accompanied by declining institutional participation. RSI divergence at Wave 5 is the most reliable early warning of the corrective ABC wave that follows. The small orange circles appear at the divergence bars — not blocking entry signals (divergence can persist for multiple bars) but providing continuous awareness that the impulse is aging.
These exit warnings fire separate alert conditions — CADENCE W5 Exit Bear and W5 Exit Bull — allowing you to set targeted notifications that prompt profit-taking on active wave trades.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧠 The 10-Layer Confluence Engine
Every setup is scored through a 10-layer confluence system. The default minimum is 4 of 10, producing a relatively permissive signal environment. Raising the minimum to 6–7 restricts signals to the highest-conviction wave setups only.
Layer 1 — Market Structure (1 point):
The current market structure state (bull or bear from the BOS/CHoCH engine) aligns with the signal direction. A W2 Golden Long in a bullish structure scores this point. A W2 Golden Long against a bearish structure does not.
Layer 2 — Fibonacci Zone (1 point):
Price is inside the applicable golden zone (W2 zone for W2 entries, W4 zone for W4 entries). For W3 and ABC entries, this layer is always credited since those setups do not require Fibonacci zone confirmation.
Layer 3 — Trigger Candle (1 point):
A qualifying bull or bear trigger candle is present — either a rejection pin bar (lower wick above 48% of range for bull) or a bullish engulfing. For W3 momentum entries, this layer is always credited since the breakout bar itself is the trigger.
Layer 4 — HTF Bias (1 point):
The higher timeframe EMA structure agrees with the signal direction. Can be set as a hard block (requireHtf = on) or as a soft scoring layer (default: off). When HTF is disabled, this layer awards 1 neutral point.
Layer 5 — Volume Expansion (1 point):
Current bar volume exceeds the volume moving average by the configured multiplier (default: 1.1×). Confirms institutional participation on the entry bar.
Layer 6 — Non-Chop Market (1 point):
Choppiness Index is below the configured threshold. Also enforced as a hard gate — extreme chop blocks all signals regardless of wave count quality.
Layer 7 — RSI Zone (1 point, optional):
RSI is in the appropriate zone for the signal direction — above the minimum for longs (default: 38), below the maximum for shorts (default: 62). Off by default — when enabled, adds a momentum context filter.
Layer 8 — EMA Trend Filter (1 point, optional):
Price is on the correct side of the configurable EMA. Off by default — when enabled, adds a trend alignment filter.
Layer 9 — RSI Momentum (1 point, optional):
RSI is actively rising (bull) or falling (bear) on the current bar — momentum is accelerating in the signal direction. Off by default.
Layer 10 — Base Credit (1 point):
A flat credit awarded to all qualifying setups — the minimum point that acknowledges the setup type itself has passed its structural requirements. This ensures that even with optional filters disabled, the maximum achievable score is 10.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📊 Fibonacci Extension Targets — Automatic TP Calculation
Every CADENCE signal produces two automatically computed take profit levels based on the identified impulse wave measurement.
TP1 — Wave 1 High / Wave Projection:
For W2 and W4 golden zone entries, TP1 is set at the prior Wave 1 level — the high that preceded the current pullback. This is the minimum structural target: the expectation that Wave 3 or Wave 5 will at least reclaim Wave 1's high. For W3 momentum entries, TP1 is set at entry plus the full impulse leg distance (Wave 3 = Wave 1 in length).
TP2 — 1.618× Extension:
The primary Fibonacci extension target, computed as `entry + impulse_leg × 1.618`. The 1.618 extension (the Golden Ratio) is the most common Wave 3 termination level and a standard Wave 5 target when Wave 3 is extended. This level is configurable (default: 1.618, range: 1.0–2.618).
Visual output: TP1 is plotted as a lime-green dotted line. TP2 is plotted as a bright yellow-green dashed line at width 2. Both extend forward by the configured guide bars (default: 35). The stop loss is plotted as a red dotted line below the wave invalidation level plus ATR buffer.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🚀 How to Trade with AlphaX CADENCE — Step by Step
Step 1 — Read the Wave Phase
Check the Wave Phase row on the dashboard. W2 PULL or W4 PULL means the system has identified a valid pullback phase — a setup may be approaching
Confirm Structure — BULL MS for long setups, BEAR MS for short. If Structure shows RANGE, the wave context is weaker
Check the golden zone box on the chart. Is it near current price? Is price approaching from above (bull W2 pullback)?
Step 2 — Watch the Golden Zone Approach
When Setup shows ARM LONG, price is approaching the golden zone. Watch for a rejection candle forming inside or at the zone boundary
Check Layers — if it is approaching the minimum threshold, a signal is likely imminent. Check HTF to confirm the macro direction
The Fibonacci levels on the chart show the exact 38.2%, 50%, and 61.8% prices — monitor for price rejection specifically at the 61.8% level (the deepest golden zone entry) for the highest-conviction golden pocket entry
Step 3 — Enter on the Triangle Signal
A ▲ triangle below the bar confirms all wave, Fibonacci, structural, and confluence conditions are met simultaneously. The setup name shows on the dashboard (W2 GOLDEN, W4 GOLDEN, W3 BREAK, ABC END)
The SL line is at the structural wave invalidation level — if price closes below Wave 0 (W2 entries) or below Wave 2 (W4 entries), the Elliott Wave count is invalid. This is a structural stop, not arbitrary ATR
TP1 is at the prior Wave 1 high — the minimum expectation for the next impulse wave
TP2 is at the 1.618× Fibonacci extension — the classical Wave 3 or Wave 5 termination level
Step 4 — Monitor for W5 Exit Warnings
As price advances toward TP2, watch for the orange W5 exit warning circles appearing above (bear divergence) or below (bull divergence) price bars
When orange circles begin appearing regularly as price approaches TP2, consider taking full profit rather than holding for further extension
A W5 divergence warning combined with price near TP2 is the strongest exit signal the system produces
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚠ Identifying Low-Quality Conditions — When Not to Trade
Stand aside when:
Wave Phase shows SCAN or CORR — the system has not yet identified a clear impulse structure with sufficient pivot history. SCAN means fewer than 3 qualified swings are stored; CORR means the three-swing pattern does not satisfy the impulse directional rules. Do not force entries without clear wave context
Chop Index is red on the dashboard — the hard chop gate is active. Elliott Wave patterns are fundamentally trend-following structures and lose their predictive power in extreme chop. All signals are blocked
Structure shows RANGE — no clear bullish or bearish market structure is established. W2 and W4 golden zone entries without structural support are lower quality. Consider waiting for a CHoCH or BOS to establish directional structure before entering
Layers score is at minimum (4/10) with all optional filters disabled — the bare-minimum score means only the most basic conditions are met. In this environment, require a higher layer count (increase minimum to 5–6) or wait for more confluence factors to align
W5 exit warnings are already appearing when entering — if orange circles are appearing before a new entry signal fires, RSI divergence is already present. This suggests the wave is potentially in a late W5 stage rather than a healthy W2 or W4. Do not enter a new position when existing divergence warnings are active
Golden zone is very narrow (W4 zone nearly coincides with stop) — when the 38.2% and 61.8% levels are very close together (small Wave 3 leg), the golden zone provides minimal entry edge. The risk/reward is poor when the zone height is less than 0.5× ATR
The ideal CADENCE setup:
Wave Phase W4 PULL with confirmed 5-swing structure
Market structure BULL MS or BEAR MS — clear directional bias
Price at or near the 61.8% golden zone boundary — the deepest valid pullback
HTF aligned with impulse direction
Volume expanding on the rejection bar
Layers at 7–8 out of 10
No W5 divergence warnings on the current sequence

🎯 Recommended Settings by Instrument & Timeframe
The default configuration is optimized for XAUUSD, major forex pairs, and crypto on M15–H4 :
Pivot Length at 5 — captures meaningful structural swings without excessive sensitivity on intraday timeframes
Min Leg Size at 1.0× ATR — filters micro-waves while capturing the significant legs that represent genuine Elliott impulses
Fibonacci zone from 38.2% to 61.8% — the classic golden zone that encompasses the highest-probability pullback termination range
HTF at 60-minute as a soft scoring layer — adds confluence when aligned without hard-blocking the counter-HTF wave setups that occasionally occur at institutional correction boundaries
ABC Correction End off by default — the corrective pattern carries more interpretation risk and is better enabled only when the user has studied Elliott corrective structures
For other instruments or timeframes, adjust:
M1–M5 scalping — reduce Pivot Length to 3, reduce Min Leg Size to 0.5, increase Cooldown to 5–6 bars, reduce Guide Extend to 15–20
H4–Daily swing trading — increase Pivot Length to 8–10, increase Min Leg Size to 1.5–2.0, increase TP2 Extension to 2.0–2.618, increase Min Layers to 5–6
Crypto (BTC, ETH) — increase Min Leg Size to 1.5 for the larger swing amplitudes, increase Fibonacci zone to 0.382–0.786 for the deeper corrections common in crypto waves
Higher confidence signals only — raise Min Layers to 6–7, enable Hard HTF Alignment, enable EMA Trend Filter and RSI Momentum Filter, disable ABC Correction End
More signals — lower Min Layers to 3, enable ABC Correction End, disable Volume Confirm, reduce Min Leg Size to 0.5
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
👥 Who This Is For
〰 Elliott Wave traders — CADENCE is the definitive quantitative implementation of the Elliott Wave trading framework for the AlphaX suite. Every component — swing identification, wave phase classification, golden zone computation, wave invalidation stop, Fibonacci extension target — is automated and applied consistently
📐 Fibonacci traders who want wave context — the Fibonacci zone in CADENCE is not a standalone level but a wave-specific retracement within a confirmed impulse structure. This context dramatically improves the reliability of Fibonacci entries compared to drawing retracement levels manually without wave classification
🎯 Pullback traders — the W2 and W4 golden zone setups are fundamentally the most optimal pullback entry in all of technical analysis — buying the deepest valid retracement within a confirmed trend impulse, with a stop at the structural invalidation point
⚡ Momentum traders — the W3 Momentum Breakout entry targets the beginning of the fastest and largest wave of the impulse sequence, providing explosive breakout entries within a wave-confirmed context
🧠 Systematic traders who want quantified wave analysis — the 10-layer scoring system and deterministic pivot-based classification replace the subjectivity of traditional Elliott Wave labeling with objective, repeatable criteria
📈 Traders who struggle with knowing when to exit trending trades — the W5 RSI divergence exit warning system provides early, systematic notification of impulse exhaustion — the most common and costly mistake in Elliott Wave trading is riding Wave 5 too long
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📝 Notes
All signals are confirmed on bar close — the indicator is non-repainting by design. Pivot detection, wave classification, Fibonacci zone computation, and confluence scoring all finalize on confirmed bars only
Elliott Wave classification requires a minimum of 3–5 confirmed swings in the rolling array. On charts with fewer than 200 bars of history, the wave phase may show SCAN until sufficient pivot history accumulates
The wave path lines and golden zone box are redrawn on the last bar only for chart performance. Historical signal triangles and exit warnings are preserved on their original bars
The minimum leg size filter (default: 1.0× ATR) ensures that only waves with meaningful price movement are classified. Very small swings below the ATR threshold are ignored by the wave engine, preventing micro-structure noise from producing false wave counts
The W5 divergence detection uses pivot-based RSI comparison with a configurable lookback. The detection is based on confirmed pivots and is non-repainting, but the divergence signal appears at the confirmation bar (pivLen bars after the actual pivot), not at the pivot bar itself
When both W2 and W4 conditions are simultaneously met (a rare occurrence in transition periods), W4 takes priority in the signal selection because W4 entries occur in more mature, structurally confirmed wave counts
The indicator does not automatically label historical waves — it focuses on the live wave phase and active entry setups. For historical wave labeling, combine with a standalone Elliott Wave labeling tool
The indicator does not track open positions or P&L and does not connect to any broker or account

Wave Sniper is an advanced Elliott Wave overlay that automatically detects **flat corrections**, **3-wave pullbacks**, and **multi-timeframe wave structure** — then scores each setup for quality and confluence before marking it on your chart.
Built for traders who want clean wave-based entries without manually counting every pivot across timeframes.
---
## What It Detects
### Flat Corrections (A–B–C)
- **Regular Flat** — B retraces ~90–100% of A, C completes near A
- **Expanded Flat** — B exceeds A (up to 138.2%), C extends 123.6–161.8% of A
- **Running Flat** — B exceeds A, C fails to reach A (truncated C)
Each flat is validated with Fibonacci ratios, optional B-wave close validation, RSI momentum divergence, and volume confirmation at the C pivot.
### 3-Wave Pullbacks
- **Continuation** — three-wave pullback in the direction of the prevailing trend
- **Reversal** — three-wave structure signaling a potential turn
### 5-Wave Retest
After a flat completes, Wave Sniper tracks whether price forms a valid 5-wave extension and flags **retest opportunities** at the prior correction zone.
### Multi-Timeframe Wave Engine (15m · 1H · 4H · Daily)
Independent pivot engines run on four higher timeframes, each maintaining its own wave count state:
`WAVE_1` through `WAVE_5`, `WAVE_A/B/C`, impulse complete, correction complete.
---
## Signal System
### Triangle Markers
Confirmed setups print a **small triangle** at the C pivot:
- ▲ Green/Purple = Long bias
- ▼ Red = Short bias
Triangle color and line weight reflect the **confluence tier** — not just pattern type.
### Confluence Tiers (HTF Bonus)
| Tier | HTF Bonus | Visual |
|------|-----------|--------|
| CASCADE | 100+ | Boldest lines + chart flash |
| TRIPLE | 70–99 | Strong color, width 3 |
| WAVE | 40–69 | Medium color, width 2 |
| Single | Below 40 | Gray tint, width 1 |
**Base pattern score (0–100)** rates Fib accuracy, momentum, volume, and B-wave validation.
**HTF bonus (0–130)** adds points when chart and higher timeframes align on wave direction, impulse structure, RSI divergence, and volume behavior.
Full scoring breakdown is shown in the **info panel** (top right).

## Key Features
**Wave 4 Watch System**
- Detects when price enters the 23.6–38.2% Fib retrace zone of HTF Wave 3
- Confirms with RSI behavior, volume contraction, and a completing 3-wave structure
- Draws W4 MIN / W4 MAX levels and `W4 WATCH` / `W4 ✅ LOAD W5` labels
**HTF Fib Zones**
- Auto-draws Wave 4 expected retrace boxes per active timeframe
- Projects W5 targets: MIN, STANDARD, 161.8%, 261.8%
**⚡ Prime Zone**
When an HTF Wave 4 Fib zone overlaps a confirmed flat correction zone on your chart timeframe, a bright **PRIME ZONE** box highlights the overlap — highest-probability confluence area.
**Auto-Invalidation**
Patterns that break structure fade to gray and are removed from active tracking.
**Adaptive Pivots**
Pivot strength auto-adjusts to ATR and timeframe so detection stays consistent across instruments and chart periods.

Elliott Structure Pro RC [Gabremoku]Elliott Structure Pro RC is a market structure and wave-mapping overlay designed to detect candidate Elliott impulse patterns using pivot logic, ZigZag structure, validation rules, invalidation levels, and projected Fibonacci targets.
This script does not claim to produce definitive Elliott Wave counts. Instead, it scans recent pivot structure and highlights the most coherent bullish or bearish candidate sequence based on alternating swing logic, structural progression, and optional Elliott validation filters. That framing is important because Elliott Wave interpretation is inherently subjective, while the classic impulse model still relies on a few widely accepted structural rules.
What it shows
🔺 ZigZag market structure — the script builds a cleaned pivot path from swing highs and lows, filtering out smaller fluctuations to make structure easier to read. ZigZag-style logic is commonly used to reduce chart noise and highlight meaningful turning points.
🏷️ HH / HL / LH / LL tags — every pivot can be classified into higher high, higher low, lower high, or lower low structure, helping the user read trend progression directly from price swings.
🌊 Candidate Elliott 1–5 sequence — the script scans recent pivots and searches for the best bullish or bearish 5-wave impulse candidate.
❌ Invalidation tracking — once a candidate is found, the script projects an invalidation level and can flag when the structure has been broken.
🔤 Optional ABC correction — after a 5-wave sequence, the indicator can also look for a basic A-B-C corrective continuation.
📏 Fibonacci projections — projected target levels for Wave 3 and Wave 5 are plotted using configurable Fibonacci multipliers. Fibonacci extensions are commonly used in Elliott analysis to estimate probable Wave 3 and Wave 5 zones.
🪧 Dashboard — shows state, mode, pivot count, direction, validation strictness, ABC status, broken structure state, and target visibility.
Core logic
The script begins with pivot highs and pivot lows, then compresses them into a cleaner alternating sequence. From there, it builds a structural map and scans the most recent pivots to find a valid 6-point sequence that can represent a 5-wave bullish or bearish impulse candidate.
In practical terms, it combines:
market structure
ZigZag logic
Elliott candidate matching
rule-based validation
invalidation and target projection
That makes it useful as a structure-reading tool first, and an Elliott helper second.
Validation model
The script offers two operating styles:
Semplificato
Avanzato
In simplified mode, the indicator focuses more on structural coherence and swing progression. In advanced mode, it can apply stricter Elliott-style validation rules such as:
Wave 3 not shortest
Wave 4 no overlap with Wave 1 territory
invalid candidate marking when rules are not respected
Those rules align with widely cited core Elliott impulse rules. In standard impulse structures, Wave 3 may not be the shortest of Waves 1, 3, and 5, and Wave 4 should not overlap Wave 1 territory except in special formations such as certain diagonals.
Fibonacci targets
The indicator also projects two practical target references:
Wave 3 target
Wave 5 target
In Elliott analysis, Wave 3 is often projected using Fibonacci expansion of Wave 1, with 1.618 being one of the most common reference ratios, while Wave 5 is often estimated from prior impulse relationships or partial trend expansion logic.
Your script uses configurable multipliers, which is a good choice because different markets and timeframes can produce different expansion behaviors.
How to use
A practical workflow is:
Let the script identify the active pivot structure.
Check whether the chart is printing HH/HL or LH/LL logic.
Watch for a highlighted bullish or bearish 1–5 candidate.
Use the invalidation level to judge whether the count remains structurally valid.
Use projected Fib targets as reference zones, not guaranteed endpoints.
If enabled, monitor whether a simple ABC correction starts forming after the impulse.
This is best used as a decision-support overlay, especially for traders who already read market structure and want an automated way to visualize possible wave candidates.
Features
✅ Pivot-based market structure engine
✅ ZigZag overlay with configurable sensitivity
✅ HH / HL / LH / LL classification
✅ Candidate bullish and bearish Elliott impulse detection
✅ Simplified or advanced scan mode
✅ Optional strict Elliott validation
✅ Wave 3 not shortest filter
✅ Wave 4 overlap validation
✅ Broken-structure detection
✅ Invalidation level plotting
✅ Optional ABC correction detection
✅ Fibonacci Wave 3 / Wave 5 projections
✅ Dashboard and optional bar coloring
✅ Gradient-based swing visualization
Notes
This indicator is designed to identify candidate Elliott structures, not to replace discretionary wave analysis. Elliott interpretation is partly rule-based and partly interpretative, so projected counts and targets should always be confirmed with broader market context, price action, and risk management.

[ A L P H A X ] Elliott Wave Detection & Fibonacci Golden ZoneAlphaX Wave – Elliott Wave Detection, Fibonacci Golden Zone Mapping, Multi-Confluence Scoring & Smart SL/TP System
AlphaX Wave is a professional-grade Elliott Wave analysis and trade signal system built on a proprietary multi-engine architecture that fuses automated wave counting, Fibonacci golden zone projection, multi-factor momentum scoring, and structure-based stop loss and target placement into a single cohesive tool. It identifies impulse wave patterns (waves 1–5), detects corrective ABC structures, projects Fibonacci retracement zones, scores trade setups across eight independent confluence factors, and generates graded entry signals with intelligent SL/TP levels derived from swing structure, Fibonacci levels, and wave projections. Designed for traders who use Elliott Wave theory as their primary framework on instruments like XAUUSD, indices, forex majors, and crypto.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🔬 The Wave Engine — How It Works
At the core of AlphaX Wave is an automated Elliott Wave detection algorithm that identifies the classical 5-wave impulse structure and 3-wave corrective patterns in real-time. Unlike manual wave counting, this engine applies strict mathematical validation rules derived from Elliott Wave theory to ensure only structurally valid patterns are labeled.
Impulse Wave Detection (Waves 1–5)
The engine uses a rolling buffer of confirmed swing highs and swing lows detected via a configurable pivot lookback. When at least three swing highs and three swing lows are available, the engine tests them against the following Elliott Wave rules:
Wave 2 must not retrace beyond the start of Wave 1 — validated by checking that the second swing low remains above the first swing low (bullish) or below the first swing high (bearish)
Wave 3 must not be the shortest impulse wave — validated by comparing the Wave 3 range to at least 70% of the Wave 1 range
Wave 4 must not overlap into Wave 1 territory — validated by checking that the Wave 4 low stays above the Wave 2 low (bullish) or Wave 4 high stays below the Wave 2 high (bearish)
Wave 2 retracement must be between 15% and 95% of Wave 1 — filters out patterns that are too shallow or too deep
Wave 4 retracement must be between 10% and 90% of Wave 3 — ensures proper proportionality
Temporal ordering must be correct — all six pivot points must occur in strict chronological sequence
Wave 5 must exceed Wave 3's high (bullish) or undercut Wave 3's low (bearish) — confirms the impulse completed with a new extreme
When all rules pass simultaneously, the engine marks the complete 1–5 impulse structure on the chart with numbered labels and connecting wave lines. Wave 3 and Wave 5 receive larger, brighter labels because they represent the highest-momentum phases of the impulse.
Corrective Wave Detection (ABC Pattern)
After an impulse completes, the engine monitors for corrective price action:
For a completed bullish impulse — the engine watches for a pullback that retraces between 20% and 72% of the impulse range, indicating an ABC correction is forming
For a completed bearish impulse — the engine watches for a bounce that retraces between 20% and 72% of the impulse range
The correction must originate after Wave 5 completes — ensures proper sequence
A configurable cooldown prevents multiple correction labels from firing on the same structure
Corrective zones are particularly valuable because they represent potential entry opportunities in the direction of the prior impulse trend — the market is pulling back within a larger trend structure.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📐 Fibonacci Golden Zone System
When an impulse wave completes, the engine automatically projects Fibonacci retracement levels across the entire impulse range:
38.2% Retracement — the shallowest institutional retracement level
50.0% Retracement — the equilibrium midpoint of the impulse
61.8% Retracement — the golden ratio level, highest-probability reversal zone
The area between the 38.2% and 61.8% levels forms the Golden Zone — a shaded box that represents the highest-probability area for the corrective wave to terminate and the trend to resume. This is where institutional traders typically place their limit orders.
The Golden Zone system includes intelligent lifecycle management:
Zones automatically expire after a configurable maximum age (default 80 bars)
Zones are removed when price closes significantly beyond them (1.5 ATR past the zone boundary) — indicating the zone has been invalidated
Maximum active zones are capped (configurable) to keep the chart clean
The indicator tracks whether price is currently inside a bullish or bearish Golden Zone — this information feeds directly into the confluence scoring engine
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📊 Wave 3 Setup Detection
Wave 3 is traditionally the strongest and longest wave in Elliott Wave theory. AlphaX Wave includes a dedicated Wave 3 Setup Scanner that identifies potential Wave 3 initiations in real-time:
Detects when price has completed a valid Wave 1 (impulse move) followed by a Wave 2 (pullback between 15% and 90% of Wave 1)
Confirms the pullback low remains above the Wave 1 starting point (bullish) or below it (bearish) — validating the wave structure
Requires a directional confirmation candle (close above prior high for bullish, close below prior low for bearish)
Marked with small purple triangles — ▲ below bar for bullish Wave 3 setups, ▼ above bar for bearish
Wave 3 setups are among the highest-probability trade entries in all of technical analysis because they align with the strongest phase of the impulse trend.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧠 8-Factor Confluence Scoring Engine
Every potential trade signal is evaluated across eight independent confluence factors . Each factor scores either 0 or 1 point, producing a confluence score from 0 to 8. Only signals meeting your configured minimum confluence threshold are displayed.
Factor 1 — Wave 3 Setup (W3)
Is a valid Wave 3 initiation pattern present?
This is the single most powerful factor — Wave 3 moves are the strongest in Elliott theory
Factor 2 — ABC Correction Zone (ABC)
Is the market currently in a corrective phase following a completed impulse?
Corrections within trends offer the best risk/reward entries
Factor 3 — Price in Fibonacci Golden Zone (FIB)
Is price currently inside an active Golden Zone box (between 38.2% and 61.8% retracement)?
Golden Zone entries have institutional backing
Factor 4 — Price at Specific Fibonacci Level (FLV)
Is price at or near the 38.2%, 50.0%, or 61.8% retracement level specifically?
Precision Fibonacci entries add edge beyond just being "in the zone"
Factor 5 — Momentum Alignment (MOM)
Are RSI slope, MACD direction, MACD histogram momentum, and Stochastic all aligned in the signal direction?
Requires at least 2 of 5 momentum sub-factors to confirm
Factor 6 — RSI Divergence (DIV)
Is a confirmed RSI divergence present (price makes new low but RSI makes higher low, or vice versa)?
Divergence is one of the most reliable reversal confirmation signals
Factor 7 — Volume Confirmation (VOL)
Is current volume above the moving average with a candle closing in the signal direction?
Volume validates institutional participation in the move
Factor 8 — EMA Trend Alignment (EMA)
Are the Fast (21), Medium (50), and Slow (200) EMAs properly stacked in the signal direction?
Or is price at least above/below the 200 EMA with Fast above/below Medium?
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📊 Confidence Scoring & Grade System
Beyond the 8-factor confluence count, each signal receives a weighted confidence score from 0 to 100% that reflects the quality and strength of the setup:
Wave Structure (up to 22 points)
Wave 3 Setup present = 22 points (highest single contributor)
ABC Correction active = 12 points
Fibonacci Alignment (up to 22 points)
Price inside Golden Zone = 15 points
Price at 61.8% level = 7 points, at 50.0% = 5 points, at 38.2% = 4 points
Momentum Confirmation (up to 23 points)
Momentum aligned (2+ sub-factors) = 12 points
Strong momentum (4+ sub-factors) = additional 6 points
MACD crossover on signal bar = 5 points
RSI Analysis (up to 14 points)
RSI divergence confirmed = 10 points
RSI slope in ideal range = 4 points
RSI already at opposite extreme (penalty) = -5 points
Volume & Trend (up to 20 points)
Volume above average + directional candle = 5 points
Volume spike + directional candle = 3 points
Full EMA alignment (Fast > Medium > Slow or reverse) = 8 points
Cloud direction confirmed = 4 points
Signals are classified into grades based on the final confidence score:
A+ Grade (70%+) — Exceptional setup. Maximum confluence across wave structure, Fibonacci, momentum, and trend.
A Grade (55–69%) — High-quality setup. Most major factors aligned.
B Grade (40–54%) — Solid setup. Core conditions met with moderate confirmation.
C Grade (25–39%) — Marginal setup. Basic conditions met but weaker confirmation. Hidden by default.
D Grade (below 25%) — Weak setup. Minimal confluence. Hidden by default.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📊 Signal Labels — What They Show
Each entry signal label displays comprehensive information in a compact format:
Direction — ▲ LONG or ▼ SHORT with spaced lettering
Grade — A+, A, B, C, or D classification
Confidence Percentage — The weighted score from the confidence engine
Confluence Count — How many of the 8 factors are active (e.g., 5/8)
Active Factor Checklist — Shows exactly which factors contributed: ✓W3 ✓ABC ✓FIB ✓FLV ✓MOM ✓DIV ✓VOL ✓EMA
Label colors follow the grade system:
Bull signals — Bright green (A+), Primary green (A), Dim green (B), Neutral gray (C/D). All use dark text for readability.
Bear signals — Bright red (A+), Primary red (A), Dim red (B), Neutral gray (C/D). All use white text for readability.
A thin dotted line connects the signal label to the price bar, keeping the label offset from price action to avoid chart clutter.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🎯 Smart SL/TP System — Structure-Based Risk Management
Every entry signal automatically generates three trade management levels — Stop Loss, Target 1, and Target 2 — using a multi-source calculation engine that prioritizes structural price levels over arbitrary ATR multiples.
Stop Loss Calculation
The SL engine searches for the optimal stop placement using this priority cascade:
Nearest swing structure — Finds the closest confirmed swing low (for longs) or swing high (for shorts) within a 50-bar lookback. Places the SL beyond this level with ATR padding.
ATR floor and cap — Ensures the SL is never too tight (70% of base ATR multiple) or too wide (180% of base ATR multiple) regardless of swing structure.
Confidence modifier — Higher-grade signals receive tighter stops (0.85× for A+, 0.92× for A, 1.0× for B, 1.15× for C/D). This reflects the higher-probability nature of strong setups.
Target 1 Calculation
TP1 represents the conservative take-profit level:
Nearest opposing swing — Searches for the closest swing high above entry (longs) or swing low below entry (shorts) that provides at least 1.2× the SL distance.
Fibonacci level targeting — If an active Fibonacci zone has a 38.2% or 50.0% level above/below entry that provides better targeting than the swing level, the Fib level is used.
Minimum R:R enforcement — TP1 is guaranteed to provide at least the configured ATR multiple (default 2.5×) of risk-reward.
Target 2 Calculation
TP2 represents the extended profit target:
Wave-based projection — If an impulse wave is active, TP2 is calculated as 61.8% of the total impulse range — representing the typical next-wave target.
Far swing structure — Searches for swing levels further than TP1 that provide at least 1.3× the TP1 distance.
Fibonacci extension — If the 61.8% Fibonacci level provides a target beyond TP1, it is used as TP2.
Minimum spacing — TP2 is guaranteed to be at least 1.5× the TP1 distance from entry.
Break-Even Protection
When TP1 is hit, the system automatically adjusts the Stop Loss to the entry price (break-even). The SL label changes to "BE" with a neutral color, visually confirming that the trade is now risk-free on the remaining position targeting TP2.
Hit Tracking
All SL/TP levels are tracked in real-time:
When a level is hit, the label changes color — red fill for SL hits, green fill for TP hits
SL hits are processed first — if the SL is hit, TP levels for that trade are no longer tracked
TP1 must be hit before TP2 tracking activates the break-even mechanism
Historical SL/TP groups are automatically trimmed to keep the chart clean (configurable history count)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📐 Trend Context Layer
Three independent trend analysis systems provide structural context:
Triple EMA System
Fast EMA (21) — Yellow-green crosses. Immediate momentum reference.
Medium EMA (50) — Gray line. Intermediate trend filter.
Slow EMA (200) — Dark gray, thicker line. Macro structural backbone used in confidence scoring.
When all three are properly stacked (Fast > Medium > Slow for bullish, reverse for bearish), trend alignment scores maximum points.
Trend Cloud
Calculated from the midpoints of the highest high / lowest low over fast (9) and slow (26) periods
When the fast midpoint is above the slow midpoint, the cloud fills green — bullish bias
When below, the cloud fills red — bearish bias
Cloud direction adds 4 points to the confidence score when aligned with the signal
RSI Divergence System
Detects classical RSI divergence using pivot-based comparison
Bullish divergence — price makes a lower low but RSI makes a higher low
Bearish divergence — price makes a higher high but RSI makes a lower high
Divergence must occur within a valid lookback window (5–50 bars between pivots) and be recent (within 3 bars of the current RSI pivot)
Marked with small diamond shapes — green below bar for bullish, red above bar for bearish
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📊 Momentum Engine
The momentum engine combines four oscillator systems into a unified momentum score:
RSI Slope — Smoothed RSI direction over 2 bars. Bullish when RSI is between 40–75 and rising. Bearish when RSI is between 25–60 and falling.
MACD Direction — MACD Line above Signal Line = bullish, below = bearish.
MACD Histogram Momentum — Histogram increasing = bullish momentum, decreasing = bearish momentum.
Stochastic Alignment — %K above %D with room to run (below 80) = bullish. %K below %D with room to fall (above 20) = bearish.
MACD Crossover — Fresh MACD crossover on the signal bar adds additional confirmation.
Scores of 2+ out of 5 confirm momentum alignment. Scores of 4+ indicate strong momentum — adding bonus points to the confidence score.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🚀 How to Trade with AlphaX Wave — Step by Step
Step 1 — Identify the Wave Structure
Look for completed impulse patterns (numbered 0–5 on the chart)
Check the Dashboard: What is the current Wave Phase?
If "SCANNING" — no valid wave structure detected yet. Wait for pattern formation.
Step 2 — Wait for Correction or Wave 3 Setup
After an impulse completes, watch for the "ABC CORRECTION ZONE" label — this is where the market is pulling back within the trend
Watch for Wave 3 Setup triangles (▲/▼) — these mark the beginning of the strongest wave
Check if price is entering a Fibonacci Golden Zone (purple shaded box)
Step 3 — Enter on Confluence Signal
Wait for a graded entry label (▲ LONG or ▼ SHORT) to appear
Check the grade — A+ and A signals have the highest probability
Review the factor checklist — more ✓ marks = stronger setup
The SL and TP levels are automatically plotted for immediate trade management
Step 4 — Manage the Trade
Monitor the SL/TP levels on the chart — they update automatically
When TP1 is hit, the label lights up green and the SL moves to break-even
Hold the remaining position for TP2 risk-free
If SL is hit first, the label turns red — accept the loss and wait for the next setup
Step 5 — Read the Verdict
The Dashboard Verdict row summarizes the engine's real-time assessment
"HIGH CONFIDENCE LONG/SHORT" — all systems aligned, actively look for entries
"LEAN LONG/SHORT — CAUTION" — some alignment but not full, trade with reduced size
"MIXED — STAND ASIDE" — conflicting signals, do not trade
"NO CLEAR EDGE" — insufficient data, wait for structure to develop
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚠ When NOT to Trade — Reading the Warning Signs
Dashboard shows "SCANNING" — No valid wave structure detected. The market may be in a complex correction or transition phase.
Verdict shows "MIXED — STAND ASIDE" — Bull and bear confluence are both active simultaneously. Conflicting signals cancel each other.
Cloud is flat or rapidly switching colors — No established trend direction. Signals during cloud transitions are less reliable.
EMAs are tangled and flat — Range-bound market. Wave patterns in choppy conditions produce lower-quality signals.
Only C or D grade signals appearing — Insufficient confluence. These grades are hidden by default for a reason.
RSI showing "OVERBOUGHT" on a long signal — The confidence engine already penalizes this (-5 points), but it is worth noting visually as well.
Volume showing "DRY" — Low-volume environments reduce the reliability of all technical patterns including waves.

📝 Notes
Wave detection uses confirmed pivot points (offset by the swing length) — wave labels appear after structural confirmation, not in real-time. This prevents repainting.
The indicator requires sufficient bar history to populate swing buffers — allow at least 100+ bars of data before expecting wave pattern detection
Elliott Wave rules are applied as mathematical approximations of the classical theory — certain complex wave structures (extended waves, truncations, diagonal triangles) may not be detected
SL/TP levels are calculated at signal time and do not adjust afterward (except the break-even mechanism on TP1 hit)
Maximum 500 labels, 500 lines, and 500 boxes are used — on very low timeframes with extended history and many signals, oldest drawings may be automatically removed by PulseWire's rendering limits
The SL/TP history is automatically trimmed to the configured limit (default 8 trade groups = 24 labels/lines) to stay within PulseWire's drawing limits
All confluence factors and confidence scores are recalculated on every bar — the dashboard reflects the current bar's state, not the last signal's state

Elliott Wave Detector PRO [TGTBTB]Elliott Wave Advanced v3 — Validated Wave Counting with Pattern Detection
A word before you start
Elliott Wave is supposedly one of the most powerful frameworks in technical analysis — and also one of the most difficult to apply correctly. The theory involves layers of rules, guidelines, pattern variations, and degree relationships that even experienced practitioners argue about. Automating it is genuinely hard, and no indicator (including this one) will get every count right every time. I felt like banging my head onto my desk more than once while trying to translate the rules into code....
What I tried to do here is capture the core rules and guidelines as faithfully as possible and make them accessible in a way that keeps things honest. The indicator won't show you a wave count unless it actually passes validation. That means you'll sometimes stare at a chart full of dot markers with no labels — and that's a feature, not a bug. I'd rather tell you "I don't know" than confidently show you something wrong.
I've put serious effort into getting the rule enforcement, pattern detection, and Fibonacci relationships right, but Elliott Wave will always involve interpretation. Treat this as a tool that tries to take the objective parts of the theory off your shoulders so you can focus on the parts that require judgment.
I deliberately made this indicator open source because I am not an Elliott Wave expert. So if you notice anything that is absolutely wrong according to the rulebook of Elliott Wave leave a message below or contact me directly so I can bug fix this indicator. The goal is to make Elliott Wave theory accessible to everyone.
What differentiates this indicator from other Elliot Wave indicators
This indicator attempts to solve the biggest problem with Elliott Wave analysis on charts: most auto-labelers just slap wave numbers onto every swing without checking if the count is actually valid.
Elliott Wave theory has three rules that cannot be broken. Ever. If your wave count violates any of them, it's wrong — no discussion. This indicator enforces all three before putting a single label on your chart:
1. Wave 2 never retraces beyond the start of Wave 1
2. Wave 3 is never the shortest among waves 1, 3, and 5
3. Wave 4 does not enter Wave 1's price territory (unless it's a diagonal)
If the pivots on your chart don't satisfy these rules, you won't see wave numbers — you'll see neutral dot markers instead. That's intentional. I'd rather show you nothing than show you a wrong count. Too many indicators out there label every zig-zag as "wave 3" and give people false confidence. This one stays quiet when it's not sure.
Pattern Detection
The indicator identifies five pattern types:
Impulse (5-wave motive) — Five alternating swings validated against all three cardinal rules, with confidence scoring based on Fibonacci proportions between the waves. Wave 3 at 1.618x Wave 1 - a high-confidence impulse. Wave 3 barely longer than Wave 1? Still valid, but lower confidence, which gets reflected by the score
Diagonal (Leading / Ending) — Same five-wave structure, but with the key difference that Wave 4 overlaps Wave 1. The indicator checks for a converging wedge shape and progressively shorter waves. These show up at the start or end of larger wave sequences and are easy to miscount as impulses if you're not checking for overlap.
Zigzag (A-B-C sharp correction) — Three-wave correction where Wave B typically retraces 38-79% of Wave A, and Wave C often equals Wave A in length. The indicator validates B doesn't exceed A's origin and C reaches beyond A's end.
Flat (Regular & Expanded) — Wave B retraces almost all of Wave A (or exceeds it in an expanded flat), and Wave C approximates Wave A's length. The indicator distinguishes between regular flats (B ≈ 100% of A) and expanded flats (B > 105% of A) because they have different trading implications.
Contracting Triangle (A-B-C-D-E) — Five-wave sideways pattern with converging boundaries. Each successive wave should be shorter than the previous one. The indicator checks that highs are declining and lows are rising, and requires at least 3 out of 4 contraction relationships to hold (real markets aren't always perfectly geometric).
Guidelines
Elliott Wave has rules (hard constraints) and guidelines (soft constraints that affect probability). This indicator checks both of them:
Alternation — If Wave 2 is a sharp, deep correction, Wave 4 should be a shallow, sideways one, and vice versa. The indicator classifies each correction based on retracement depth and duration relative to the preceding impulse, then checks whether waves 2 and 4 have different character. This isn't a dealbreaker if it fails, but it affects the confidence score and is shown on the info panel (✓ or ✗).
Sub-wave structure — Motive waves (1, 3, 5) should subdivide into 5 sub-waves internally, while corrective waves (2, 4) should subdivide into 3. The indicator counts secondary pivots within each primary wave's time range and checks if the internal structure is consistent with what Elliott Wave theory expects. Again, not a hard gate, but it influences confidence scoring.
Fibonacci Analysis
The Fibonacci levels are calculated with proper anchor points:
Retracements are projected from the last completed wave — showing where the current correction might find support/resistance.
Extensions use the correct Elliott Wave method: the prior impulse wave's length is projected from the corrective wave's end. So if you've completed waves 1-2, the Wave 3 target is projected as a 1.618 extension of Wave 1's length measured from Wave 2's end. Not from some arbitrary reference point.
When a validated pattern exists, the extension anchors are taken directly from the identified wave structure. When there's no confirmed pattern, it falls back to geometric pivot-based projection (and tells you so).
The Forecast Panel
I made a deliberate design choice for this: the forecast is gated behind pattern confirmation.
If the indicator has identified a validated impulse, zigzag, flat, triangle, or diagonal, the forecast panel shows "CONFIRMED" and provides wave-structure-aware targets and scenarios. After a completed correction, it projects the next impulse in the correct direction. After a completed impulse, it anticipates the corrective phase.
If no pattern has been validated, the forecast shows "UNCONFIRMED" and limits itself to cautious directional observations based on raw pivot geometry. No wave labels, no "Wave 3 starting!" claims, but a honest reporting of what the price structure looks like without pretending to know more than it does.
The projection lines on the chart reflect this too — confirmed forecasts get solid, visible projections; unconfirmed ones are thinner and more transparent.
Trade Signals
Three signal types, all requiring some degree of pattern confirmation:
-Wave 3 Entry — Fires after a valid Wave 2 retracement (38.2-78.6%) when the indicator has at least moderate confidence in the count
- Wave 5 Exit — Triggers when momentum is waning in a confirmed impulse (last wave significantly shorter than the overall move)
- Wave C Reversal — Signals when a validated zigzag or flat correction is complete and the reversal should begin
Signals won't fire on an unconfirmed wave count. If the indicator isn't sure what wave you're in, it won't pretend to give you entries.
Settings & Tuning
Swing Detection — The two most important inputs. "Primary Wave Swing Length" controls how many bars are needed to confirm a major swing (lower = more sensitive, more pivots, more patterns detected but potentially noisier). "Min Swing %" sets the minimum percentage move to qualify as a primary wave — for crypto on daily timeframes, 5-10% works well. For forex or equities you'll want to bring this down.
Sub-Wave Swing Length — Controls the secondary pivot detection used for internal structure validation. Keep this lower than the primary setting.
Everything else in the settings is display-related and fairly self-explanatory. Colors, text sizes, which elements to show/hide.
What this is NOT
This is not a crystal ball. Elliott Wave analysis is inherently subjective — two analysts can look at the same chart and produce different valid counts. What this indicator does is enforce the objective constraints of the theory and give you a probabilistic assessment of which pattern best fits the current structure.
It works best on higher timeframes (4H, Daily, Weekly) where the swing structure is cleaner. On 1-minute charts you'll mostly see dot markers because the noise rarely resolves into validated patterns — and that's the indicator doing its job correctly.
Use it alongside your other analysis. The wave count gives you context for where you are in the cycle. The Fibonacci levels give you targets. The signals give you timing. But none of it replaces risk management and position sizing. Indicator
Harmonic Pulse Tracker [JOAT]Harmonic Pulse Tracker
Introduction
The Harmonic Pulse Tracker is an open-source institutional-grade wave and rhythm analysis system that combines Elliott Wave principles, Fibonacci harmonic analysis, WaveTrend oscillator mechanics, and cycle detection into a unified oscillator. This sophisticated system integrates multiple proven methodologies to identify high-probability reversal zones where harmonic patterns, wave cycles, and momentum indicators converge.
The indicator is designed for traders who understand that market movements follow natural harmonic patterns and cyclical rhythms. By synthesizing detrended price oscillation, Fibonacci retracement levels, WaveTrend momentum analysis, money flow dynamics, and volume confirmation, this tool helps identify structural market turning points with mathematical precision.
Why This Integration Exists
This indicator combines six distinct analytical frameworks that complement each other:
Harmonic Wave Analysis: Uses detrended price oscillation combined with Ehlers cycle detection to identify natural market rhythms
Fibonacci Harmonic Levels: Calculates dynamic Fibonacci retracements and extensions based on wave swing points
WaveTrend Oscillator: Implements LazyBear's WaveTrend algorithm for momentum and overbought/oversold detection
Money Flow Integration: Tracks institutional buying and selling pressure through Money Flow Index analysis
Volume Analysis: Confirms wave movements with volume spikes and directional volume pressure
Elliott Wave Counting: Simplified wave counting system to identify impulse and corrective wave phases
Each component addresses different aspects of market rhythm and harmony. The harmonic wave engine identifies natural price cycles, Fibonacci levels provide mathematical support/resistance, WaveTrend shows momentum extremes, money flow reveals institutional activity, volume confirms genuine moves, and Elliott Wave counting provides structural context. Together, they create a multi-dimensional view of market harmony and discord.
Core Components Explained
1. Harmonic Wave Engine
The core wave calculation combines two advanced techniques:
DPO (Detrended Price Oscillator) = close - sma(close, length/2 + 1)
Ehlers Cycle Component = High-pass filtered price with cycle smoothing
Harmonic Wave = Smoothed DPO + (Cycle Component * 0.5)
This creates a wave that removes trend bias while preserving cyclical components, revealing the natural harmonic rhythm of price movement.
Wave Derivatives:
- Wave Momentum: Rate of change in harmonic wave
- Wave Acceleration: Rate of change in momentum
- Wave Velocity: Percentage rate of change over 5 periods
These derivatives help identify wave phase transitions and momentum shifts before they become obvious in price.
2. Fibonacci Harmonic Level System
The indicator calculates dynamic Fibonacci levels based on harmonic wave swing points:
Standard Retracements:
- 23.6%, 38.2%, 50.0%, 61.8%, 78.6% of wave range
Extensions:
- 127.2%, 161.8%, 261.8% beyond wave high
Golden Pocket Zone:
The critical 61.8% to 78.6% retracement zone where most harmonic reversals occur. This zone represents the mathematical sweet spot where Fibonacci ratios converge with natural market rhythm.
Harmonic Resonance Detection:
The system identifies when price is within 5% of key Fibonacci levels and calculates confluence scores when multiple levels align.
3. WaveTrend Oscillator Integration
Implements the proven WaveTrend algorithm:
ESA = ema(hlc3, channel_length)
D = ema(abs(hlc3 - ESA), channel_length)
CI = (hlc3 - ESA) / (0.015 * D)
WT1 = ema(CI, average_length)
WT2 = sma(WT1, 4)
WaveTrend Signals:
- Crossovers in oversold zone (< -50): Bullish reversal signals
- Crossunders in overbought zone (> 50): Bearish reversal signals
- Regular crossovers: Momentum shift confirmation
4. Money Flow Analysis
Tracks institutional buying and selling pressure:
MFI = Money Flow Index over specified period
MFI Centered = (MFI - 50) * multiplier
- Positive MFI: Institutional buying pressure
- Negative MFI: Institutional selling pressure
- Strong MFI: Absolute value > 25 indicates significant institutional activity
5. Volume Analysis Engine
Comprehensive volume analysis including:
Volume Spikes: Volume > Average Volume * Threshold
Volume Ratio: Current volume / Average volume
Volume Strength: Normalized volume intensity (0-100)
Directional Volume:
- Bullish Volume Spike: High volume + green candle
- Bearish Volume Spike: High volume + red candle
6. Elliott Wave Phase Detection
Simplified wave analysis to identify market structure:
Impulse Waves:
- Impulse Up: Positive momentum + acceleration + velocity
- Impulse Down: Negative momentum + acceleration + velocity
Corrective Waves:
- Mixed momentum and acceleration signals indicating consolidation
Wave Counting:
Basic 5-wave count system that resets after wave 5 completion, helping identify potential reversal zones.
Multi-Factor Confluence Scoring System
The indicator calculates a real-time confluence score (0-100) by weighting each component:
Confluence Score Components:
- Fibonacci Zone: Up to 20 points (Golden Pocket = 20, other Fib levels = 4 each)
- Wave Strength: Up to 20 points (based on wave momentum intensity)
- WaveTrend: Up to 20 points (extreme zone crossovers = 20, regular = 15)
- Money Flow: Up to 20 points (strong institutional activity = 20)
- Volume: Up to 20 points (volume spikes = 20, elevated = 15)
Scores above 80 indicate exceptional confluence for potential trades. The dashboard displays individual component scores for transparency.
Perfect Harmonic Alignment Detection
The system identifies rare "Perfect Harmonic" setups when:
- Price is in Golden Pocket zone
- Impulse wave phase is active
- Wave strength > 70
- WaveTrend crossover in extreme zone
- Positive money flow (for bullish) or negative (for bearish)
- Volume spike confirmation
These setups represent the highest probability reversal opportunities.

How Components Work Together
The integration creates a harmonic analysis approach:
Layer 1 - Wave Rhythm: Harmonic wave identifies natural market cycles and turning points
Layer 2 - Mathematical Levels: Fibonacci ratios provide precise support/resistance zones
Layer 3 - Momentum Context: WaveTrend shows overbought/oversold extremes
Layer 4 - Institutional Flow: Money flow reveals smart money positioning
Layer 5 - Volume Confirmation: Volume analysis validates genuine moves vs noise
Layer 6 - Wave Structure: Elliott Wave context provides structural framework
Example scenario: Harmonic wave reaches Golden Pocket zone (Layer 1 + 2) during WaveTrend oversold crossover (Layer 3) with positive money flow (Layer 4) and volume spike (Layer 5) in corrective wave phase (Layer 6). This confluence suggests exceptional reversal probability.

How to Use This Indicator
Step 1: Identify Wave Phase
Check the dashboard for current wave phase (Impulse Up/Down, Corrective, Neutral) and Elliott Wave count.
Step 2: Locate Fibonacci Zones
Look for price approaching key Fibonacci levels, especially the Golden Pocket zone (61.8%-78.6%).
Step 3: Check WaveTrend Position
Identify if WaveTrend is in extreme zones and watch for crossovers in oversold/overbought areas.
Step 4: Analyze Money Flow
Confirm institutional positioning through Money Flow Index - positive for bullish setups, negative for bearish.
Step 5: Verify Volume Confirmation
Ensure volume supports the move - look for volume spikes in the direction of the expected reversal.
Step 6: Review Confluence Score
Check the dashboard confluence score. Scores above 80 indicate high-probability setups.
Step 7: Wait for Perfect Harmonic Signals
The highest probability trades occur when "PERFECT" signals appear, indicating all factors are aligned.
Best Practices
Use on 15-minute to 4-hour timeframes for optimal harmonic detection
Focus on Golden Pocket zone entries - this is where most harmonic reversals occur
Wait for WaveTrend crossovers in extreme zones for best risk:reward
Confirm with money flow direction - institutional flow should support the trade direction
Volume spikes add significant confirmation to harmonic setups
Perfect Harmonic signals are rare but offer exceptional probability
Wave 5 completions often coincide with major reversal opportunities
Use confluence scores above 80 as primary filter for trade selection
Indicator Limitations
Harmonic patterns can extend beyond expected Fibonacci levels
Perfect Harmonic signals are rare - patience is required for best setups
Wave counting is simplified and may not match complex Elliott Wave analysis
Fibonacci levels are dynamic and may adjust as new swing points form
Money flow can remain extreme longer than expected during strong trends
Volume confirmation may be less reliable in low-liquidity markets
Confluence scoring is mathematical, not predictive of future performance
Requires understanding of harmonic analysis principles for effective use

LazyBear WaveTrend algorithm implementation
Real-time Money Flow Index with institutional bias detection
Volume analysis with spike detection and directional confirmation
Simplified Elliott Wave counting with phase detection
Multi-factor confluence scoring system with component weighting

Originality Statement
This indicator is original in its harmonic integration approach. While individual components (DPO, Fibonacci, WaveTrend, MFI, volume analysis, Elliott Wave) are established concepts, this integration is justified because:
It synthesizes six distinct methodologies that address different aspects of market harmony
The harmonic wave engine combines detrended oscillation with cycle detection for superior rhythm analysis
Dynamic Fibonacci levels adjust to current wave structure rather than using static retracements
Golden Pocket zone identification provides mathematical precision for reversal timing
Multi-factor confluence scoring quantifies setup quality across all components
Perfect Harmonic detection identifies rare, high-probability reversal opportunities
Each component contributes unique harmonic information: wave analysis reveals natural cycles, Fibonacci provides mathematical levels, WaveTrend shows momentum extremes, money flow indicates institutional positioning, volume confirms genuine moves, and Elliott Wave provides structural context. The integration's value lies in identifying moments when all these harmonic factors align simultaneously.

-Made with passion by officialjackofalltrades Indicator
Elliott Wave (Experimental) [UAlgo]Elliott Wave (Experimental) is an automated swing based Elliott Wave scanner that attempts to classify recent market structure into common motive and corrective wave patterns. The script first converts price into a cleaned swing sequence using pivot confirmation and a minimum swing percentage filter. It then runs a two pass detection process that prioritizes five wave patterns first and fills remaining gaps with three wave corrective structures. Each detected pattern is validated with a rule engine, assigned a confidence score using Fibonacci ratio proximity, and rendered on the chart with wave labels, wave lines, optional channels, and optional Fibonacci projection targets.
This indicator is labeled experimental by design. Elliott Wave interpretation is inherently probabilistic and can vary between analysts, so the script focuses on transparent, rule driven validation and a confidence model that helps you judge the quality of each detected structure. Instead of presenting a single rigid count, it can render multiple detected patterns in the swing history and then highlights the latest one in a dashboard with direction, confidence, rule pass ratio, and a next target estimate.
🔹 Features
1) Swing Engine with Pivot Confirmation and Minimum Move Filter
The foundation of the scanner is a zigzag style swing engine. Swings are built from pivot highs and pivot lows confirmed by a configurable lookback. A Min Swing percent filter ensures that only meaningful moves are added as new swings. When consecutive pivots of the same type appear, the engine keeps only the better extreme, which helps reduce noise.
This creates a stable swing sequence that becomes the input for all wave pattern validators.
2) Multiple Pattern Families Supported
The scanner supports a wide set of Elliott structures, each enabled or disabled by inputs:
Impulse 1 2 3 4 5
Diagonal leading or ending with contracting or expanding classification
Zigzag ABC with a 5 3 5 style model
Flat ABC with regular expanded and running classification
Triangle ABCDE with contracting or expanding detection
Combination WXY for double three style sequences
Because patterns can overlap, the script uses a two pass orchestration that gives five wave structures priority, then looks for three wave structures in unused swing segments.
3) Rule Engine with Transparent Results
Each validator returns a WavePattern object that contains:
Wave list with labeled segments
A pattern type tag
Direction bullish or bearish
Validation state
Confidence score
Detailed rule results with pass and fail status and descriptive text
Rules implement common academic guidelines, such as Wave 2 not exceeding Wave 1 origin, Wave 3 not being the shortest, diagonal overlap behavior, and triangle containment conditions.
A relaxed overlap option can be enabled to allow minor Wave 4 overlap into Wave 1 territory when analyzing leveraged or futures markets where strict cash market rules may be less reliable.
4) Fibonacci Based Confidence Scoring
When a pattern passes its core rules, it receives a confidence score based on how close key measured ratios are to common Fibonacci ideals. The score is designed to reward clean proportionality and alternation behavior, while penalizing overlap or weak impulse characteristics.
Confidence is shown in the dashboard and is also mapped to a color for fast interpretation.
5) Rich Chart Rendering with Optional Components
Detected patterns can render several layers of visuals:
Wave lines connecting swing points
Wave labels placed above highs and below lows
Optional wave channel for motive patterns
Optional Fibonacci projection levels with labels
A developing dashed leg from the last confirmed swing to the current bar to indicate the incomplete swing path
A dotted background zigzag to show the underlying swing structure that drives detection
All drawings are rebuilt on the last bar to keep the chart clean and ensure only the current best set of objects remains visible.
6) Fibonacci Projection Engine for Next Targets
The script generates forward projection levels based on pattern type:
After an impulse, it projects common correction retracement levels of the full impulse
After ABC patterns, it projects trend resumption extensions based on Wave A length
After triangles, it projects post triangle thrust targets
The first projection is used as the next target value in the dashboard.
7) Dashboard Summary for the Latest Pattern
A compact dashboard shows the latest detected pattern with:
Pattern name
Direction
Confidence percent
Active wave label
Rules passed count over total rules
Next target from the projection list
Patterns found count and total swings count
This dashboard is designed to provide a quick situational read without requiring you to inspect every label and line manually.
🔹 Calculations
1) Swing Detection and State Management
Swings are detected using pivot highs and lows with symmetric confirmation:
float ph = ta.pivothigh(high, i_pLen, i_pLen)
float pl = ta.pivotlow(low, i_pLen, i_pLen)
When a pivot is found, a WavePoint is constructed at the pivot bar index and time, then passed into the swing engine. The engine enforces alternation and minimum percent change:
If the new pivot is the same type as the last swing, the more extreme point replaces it
If the pivot is the opposite type, it is only accepted if percent change exceeds Min Swing percent
This percent change filter is computed as:
absolute difference between swing prices divided by last swing price times 100
The swing list is capped to a maximum size to limit memory and improve stability.
2) Two Pass Pattern Orchestration with Segment Claiming
The scanner evaluates swing sequences and constructs patterns in two passes:
Pass 1 scans for five wave patterns such as impulse diagonal and triangle. If a valid pattern is found, its swing segment is marked as used so later scans do not overlap it.
Pass 2 scans the remaining unused segments for three wave patterns such as zigzag flat and combination.
This approach reduces overlapping detections and prioritizes larger motive structures.
3) Impulse Validation Rules and Measurements
Impulse detection uses six swing points p0 through p5, producing five waves. It validates:
Wave 2 does not retrace beyond Wave 1 origin
Wave 3 is not the shortest among Waves 1 3 5
Wave 4 does not overlap Wave 1 territory unless relaxed mode is enabled
Wave 3 exceeds the end of Wave 1
Wave 5 generally progresses beyond Wave 3 with tolerance for truncation strength
Wave 3 shows impulse like momentum using a slope proxy based on wave length divided by bar length
Wave ratios are then computed for confidence scoring:
Wave 2 retracement relative to Wave 1
Wave 3 extension relative to Wave 1
Wave 4 retracement relative to Wave 3
Wave 5 extension relative to Wave 3
Wave 5 equality relative to Wave 1
Fibonacci closeness is computed by measuring distance to a list of ideal ratios and converting it into a percent score.
4) Diagonal Validation and Contracting Expanding Classification
Diagonal validation also uses six points. It enforces overlap between Wave 4 and Wave 1 as a defining feature, plus containment rules and the requirement that Wave 5 exceeds Wave 3. It then classifies:
Contracting diagonal when wave lengths shrink in a structured way
Expanding diagonal when wave lengths grow in a structured way
A confidence score is computed using retracement ratios and a momentum decrease check for contracting diagonals.
5) Corrective Pattern Validators
Zigzag ABC validator checks:
Wave B does not exceed Wave A origin
Wave A has a stronger slope than Wave B as an impulse proxy
Wave C ends beyond Wave A
Wave B retracement remains within a tolerance range
Flat ABC validator checks:
Wave B retraces at least 90 percent of Wave A
Classifies regular expanded or running based on whether B exceeds the origin and whether C exceeds A
Requires C to reach or exceed A for regular and expanded cases
Triangle ABCDE validator checks:
Contracting triangle containment of C within A D within B and E within C plus shrinking wave sizes
Expanding triangle growth conditions
Corrective character proxy based on overlap
Combination WXY validator checks:
X does not exceed W origin
W is not triangle like using a size relationship proxy
W and Y proportionality and sideways character checks
X retracement within corrective bounds
Each validator returns rule results and a confidence score when valid.
6) Fibonacci Projection Logic
After detection, the script adds projections to the latest pattern:
For impulse patterns, it projects correction retracement levels of the full impulse: 38.2 percent, 50 percent, 61.8 percent
For ABC patterns, it projects 100 percent and 161.8 percent extensions based on Wave A length
For triangles, it projects thrust targets based on Wave A length
Projection prices are computed by adding or subtracting a multiple of a reference wave length from the last wave end price, depending on detected direction.
7) Rendering and Object Management
On the last bar, the script deletes previous drawing objects and renders the current scan results. Rendering includes:
Wave lines with motive waves in bullish or bearish color and corrective waves in corrective color
Wave labels placed above highs and below lows
Optional wave channel using the wave 2 to wave 4 line and a parallel through wave 3
Fibonacci projection lines and labels extending forward
A developing dashed leg from last confirmed swing to current price proxy
A dotted zigzag reference connecting all swings

This indicator takes the guesswork out of complex technical analysis by algorithmically detecting Elliott Wave structures in real-time and continuously projecting the most probable future sequence directly onto your chart.
Building upon classical Elliott Wave theory, this tool doesn’t just show you where price has been; it explicitly maps out exactly where price is going. Utilizing smart structural pivot detection, rigorous Fibonacci ratio validation, and a dynamic chronological target matrix, traders can effortlessly visualize unfolding impulsive and corrective cycles before they happen.
Core Features:
Algorithmic Structural Detection: The engine automatically filters out minor price noise to detect the primary 5-wave impulsive pivot sequence anchoring current market movements, eliminating the need for manual and subjective chart drawing.
Predictive Future Sequencing: Instead of merely labeling past waves, the indicator continuously draws forward-looking dashed projection lines into the future, dynamically predicting the entire 9-step Elliott Wave cycle (Impulse 1-5 + Corrective A-B-C-X-Y).
Dynamic Chronological Target Matrix: A sleek, user-friendly table mounts directly to your chart, acting as a live forecasting queue. It chronologically outputs the exact price targets, Fibonacci extensions/retracements, and required percentage moves for the immediate next 9 steps of the active cycle.
Alternate Scenario Tracking (Bull/Bear Flipping): Toggling the "Alternate Scenario" feature instantly mounts a secondary, fully independent target matrix to your chart and projects the inverted wave structure simultaneously. Never get caught off-guard; always have the mathematical targets for both the primary and alternate market directions mapped out simultaneously.
EW Confidence Scoring System: Displays a built-in confidence score evaluating how tightly the detected pivot structure adheres to strict Elliott Wave rules (e.g., assessing if Wave 3 is the shortest, or if Wave 4 overlaps Wave 1), giving you a clear probabilistic health-check on the current wave count.
Smart Auto-Adaptation: The forecasting lines originate seamlessly from the absolute tip of the current live candle, constantly updating percentage metrics relative to the real-time exact price.
Customization Options:
Designed to maintain completely clean and uncluttered charts:
Granular control over Wave visibility, allowing you to hide historical structures and focus solely on future predictions.
"ZigZag Depth" adjustments allow you to easily fine-tune the indicator's sensitivity to macro or micro trends depending on your timeframe.
Fully adjustable aesthetic settings for all text labels, table sizes, and projection line colors.
Whether you are long-term investing using daily charts or day-trading intraday volatility, the Elliott Wave Predictor is designed to keep you mathematically tethered to the smartest probabilistic outcome of the next market cycle! Indicator

Elliott Wave [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
Elliott Wave automatically finds and draws an Elliott-style 5-wave impulse and a dashed projection for a potential -(a)→(b)→(c) correction. It detects six sequential reversal points from rolling highs/lows — 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, (a) — validates their relative placement, and then renders the wave with labels and horizontal reference lines. If price invalidates the structure by closing back through the Wave-5 level inside a 100-bar window, the pattern is cleared (optionally kept as “broken”) while key dotted levels remain for context.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Reversal harvesting from extremes : The script scans highest/lowest values over a user-set Length and stores swing points with their bar indices.
Six-point validation : A pattern requires six pivots (1…5 and (a)). Their vertical/temporal order must satisfy Elliott-style constraints before drawing.
Impulse + projection : After confirming 1→5, the tool plots a curved polyline through the pivots and a dashed forward path from (a) toward (b) (midpoint of 5 and (a)) and back to (c).
Risk line (invalidator) : The Wave-5 price is tracked; a close back through it within 100 bars marks the structure as broken.
Minimal persistence : When broken, the wave drawing is removed to avoid noise, while dotted horizontals for waves 5 and 4 remain as reference.
🔵 FEATURES
Automatic pivot collection from rolling highs/lows (user-controlled Length ).
Wave labeling : Points 1–5 are printed; the last collected swing is marked b
. Projected i
& i
are shown with a dashed polyline.
Breaker line & cleanup : If price closes above Wave-5 (opposite for bears) within 100 bars, the pattern is removed; only dotted levels of 5 and 4 stay.
Styling controls :
Length (pivot sensitivity)
Text Size for labels (tiny/small/normal/large)
Wave color input
Show Broken toggle to keep invalidated patterns visible
Lightweight memory : Keeps a compact buffer of recent pivots/draws to stay responsive.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Set sensitivity : Increase Length on noisy charts for cleaner pivots; decrease to catch earlier/shorter structures.
Wait for confirmation : Once 1→5 is printed and (a) appears, use the Wave-5 line as your invalidation. A close back through it within ~100 bars removes the active wave (unless Show Broken is on).
Plan with the dashed path : The (a)→(b)→(c) projection offers a scenario for potential corrective movement and risk placement.
Work MTF : Identify cleaner waves on higher TFs; refine execution on lower TFs near the breaker or during the move toward (b).
Seek confluence : Align with structure (S/R), volume/Delta, or your trend filter to avoid counter-context trades.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Elliott Wave systematizes discretionary wave analysis: it detects and labels the 5-wave impulse, projects a plausible (a)-(b)-(c) path, and self-cleans on invalidation. With clear labels, dotted reference levels, and a practical breaker rule, it gives traders an objective framework for scenario planning, invalidation, and timing. Indicator

Motive Wave Scanner [Trendoscope®]Motive Wave Scanner is a simple algorithm to find out motive waves as per the rules of Elliott Wave theory.
It is an extension to our previous open source script Interactive Motive Wave Checklist which provides interactive capability to select six points of a five wave formation. Once users select them, the rules of motive waves are applied to manually selected points to highlight them as either diagonal wave, motive wave or none.
This indicator does the same. But, instead of requesting the pivots manually from the user, the indicator automatically picks and scans them through zigzag.
We have already published a similar script as protected source. But, due to some changes in the pine engine, there have been few issues in the runtime. In this publication, we not only address those runtime issues but also making it open source for the users to make use of the source code and enhance it further.
🎲 What are motive waves
Motive waves are strong upward or downward movement with 5 subwaves.
Motive Wave in the upward direction will start with Swing High, Ends with Swing High and consists of 3 Higher Highs and 2 Higher Lows representing strong upward trend.
Motive Wave in the downward direction will start with Swing Low, Ends with Swing low and consists of 3 Lower Lows and 2 Lower Highs representing strong downward trend.
🎲 Types of Motive Waves
Motive Waves are broadly classified by two types:
Impulse Waves
Diagonal Waves
Diagonal Waves are further classified into Contracting and Expanding Diagonals. These can fall into the category of either leading diagonal and ending diagonal.
🎲 Rules of Motive Waves
🎯 Generic Rule of any motive waves are as follows
Should consist of 5 alternating waves. (Swing High followed by Swing low and vice versa)
This can start from Swing High and end in Swing High or start from Swing Low and end in Swing Low of a zigzag.
Wave-2 should not move beyond Wave-1. This means, the Wave-2 is always shorter than Wave-1 with respect to distance between the price of start and end.
Wave-3 always moves beyond Wave-1. This means, the Wave-3 is always longer than Wave-2 in terms of price
Among Wave-1, Wave-3, and Wave-5, Wave-3 is never the shortest one. This means, either Wave-1 or Wave-5 can be longer than Wave-3 but not both. Wave-3 can also be longest among the three.
Here is the pictorial representation of the rules of the Motive Waves
For a wave to be considered as motive wave, it also needs to follow the rules of either impulse or diagonal waves.
🎯 Rules for a 5 wave pattern to be considered as Impulse Wave are:
Wave-4 never overlaps with Wave-1 price range
Wave-1, Wave-3 and Wave-5 should not be either expanding or contracting. Meaning, we cannot have Wave-1 > Wave-3 > Wave-5 , and we cannot have Wave-1 < Wave-3 < Wave-5
Pictorial representation of the impulse wave rules are as below:
🎯 Rules for the Diagonal Waves are as follows
Contrary to the first rule of impulse wave, in case of diagonal wave, Wave-4 always overlaps with Wave-1 price range. But, it will not go beyond Wave-3
Waves are progressively expanding or contracting - Wave1 > Wave3 > Wave5 and Wave2 > Wave4 to be contracting diagonal. Wave1 < Wave3 < Wave5 and Wave2 < Wave4 to be expanding diagonal wave.
Pictorial representation of the Contracting Diagonal Wave is as below. Here, the Wave-1, Wave-3 and Wave-5 are in contracting formation.
Pictorial representation of the Expanding Diagonal Wave is as below. Here, the Wave-1, Wave-3 and Wave-5 are in expanding formation.
🎲 Indicator Settings
Indicator settings are defined as below:
Repaint Warning : If Repaint is selected, the indicator will throw a runtime error after certain bars or when alerts are set. This is due to some pine internal issue. At present, we do not have any solution for this until the internal issue is resolved by Tradingview Pine Team. Indicator
Bull Bear Trend IndicatorIntroduction: Origin of the Swing Point Indicator
In the quest for a reliable indicator that accurately predicts trend directions and identifies valid highs and lows, the genesis of the Swing Point Indicator emerged. Faced with the challenge of finding a tool that provided comprehensive market analysis and actionable insights, the need for a novel solution became evident. Combining insights gleaned from market analysis and innovative algorithmic approaches, the Swing Point Indicator was born.
Enhanced Feature: Highs and Lows Labeling in Trend Direction
In addition to its core functionalities, the Swing Point Indicator incorporates an advanced feature that enhances the visualization of trend direction. This feature provides further clarity by selectively labeling highs and lows based on the prevailing trend, reinforcing the identification of higher highs and lower lows in uptrends and downtrends, respectively. Overlapping labels on highs and lows signify a potential trend change, providing traders with valuable insight into market reversals.
Detailed Description:
1. Uptrend Labeling:
- Higher Highs (Green Label with Price): In an uptrend, where higher highs are observed, the indicator labels these points with vibrant green color and includes the corresponding price value. This visually highlights the significance of higher highs as pivotal points in the upward trajectory of prices.
- Higher Lows (Red Marker without Text or Diamond): To complement the identification of higher highs, higher lows are marked with a distinct red marker or diamond, devoid of any accompanying text. While these points are crucial in delineating the ascending trend, their emphasis lies in their role as support levels, providing a foundation for upward price movements.
2. Downtrend Labeling:
- Lower Lows (Red Label with Price): Conversely, in a downtrend characterized by lower lows, the indicator labels these points with conspicuous red color, accompanied by the corresponding price value. Lower lows signify critical levels of downward price momentum, acting as indicators of potential bearish continuation.
- Lower Highs (Green Marker without Text or Diamond): Lower highs, indicative of downward retracements in a downtrend, are marked by distinctive green markers or diamonds without accompanying text. While these points denote temporary pauses or pullbacks in the bearish trend, their emphasis lies in their role as resistance levels, impeding upward price movements.
Functionality and Utility:
- Customizable Lookback Candle Count: Traders have the option to adjust the lookback candle count, which is set by default at 108 candles in the settings. This flexibility allows traders to tailor the indicator to their specific trading preferences and timeframes.
- Equal Highs or Lows Option: When enabled, the Swing Point Indicator can identify equal highs or equal lows, providing traders with additional insight into market dynamics.
- Formation Confirmation: A new higher high along with its higher low or a new lower low along with its lower high is confirmed after two candles have closed following the swing point candle. This ensures the reliability of the identified trend direction.
Conclusion:
The incorporation of selective labeling for highs and lows based on trend direction, alongside the introduction of customizable settings and formation confirmation criteria, enhances the effectiveness of the Swing Point Indicator. This feature-rich tool empowers traders with a nuanced understanding of market dynamics, highlighting critical price levels and trend reversals. By offering enhanced visualization, customizable options, and confirmation criteria, the Swing Point Indicator equips traders with the confidence and precision needed to navigate the markets successfully, contributing to more informed and profitable trading strategies.

Elliot Wave - ImpulseLets dabble a bit into Elliot Waves.
This is a simple script which tries to identify Wave 1 and 2 of Elliot Impulese Wave and then projects for Wave 3.
Ratios are taken from below link: elliottwave-forecast.com - Section 3.1 Impulse
Wave 2 is 50%, 61.8%, 76.4%, or 85.4% of wave 1 - used for identifying the pattern.
Wave 3 is 161.8%, 200%, 261.8%, or 323.6% of wave 1-2 - used for setting the targets
Important input parameters
Length : Zigzag Length. Keep the numbers low if you are looking for smaller and shorter trades. Keep the numbers high if you are looking for longer and bigger trades.
Error Percent : Adjustments for ratios as it is not always possible to find exactly equal retracement ratio.
Entry Percent : Once Wave 2 is formed, entry is set after reversing 30% of wave 2. This number can be increased or decreased. Caution: Keeping the number too low may result in false signals.
Ignore Trend Direction : If unchecked, it will only look for pattern if Wave 1 has made a higher high. If not, it will ignore Wave 1 condition and only look at wave 1 to 2 ratio.
Handle Duplicates : Since, the labels are generated upon crossover of entry price, this crossover may happen multiple times. Or sometimes wave 2 can further extend and generate new signal with same wave 1. This parameter says how to handle such cases. Keep Last is set to default and is most preferred option.

EWO Breaking Bands & XTLElliott Wave Principle, developed by Ralph Nelson Elliott , proposes that the seemingly chaotic behaviour of the different financial markets isn’t actually chaotic. In fact the markets moves in predictable, repetitive cycles or waves and can be measured and forecast using Fibonacci numbers. These waves are a result of influence on investors from outside sources primarily the current psychology of the masses at that given time. Elliott wave predicts that the prices of the a traded currency pair will evolve in waves: five impulsive waves and three corrective waves. Impulsive waves give the main direction of the market expansion and the corrective waves are in the opposite direction (corrective wave occurrences and combination corrective wave occurrences are much higher comparing to impulsive waves)
The Elliott Wave Oscillator ( EWO ) helps identifying where you are in the 5 / 3 Elliott Waves , mainly the highest/lowest values of the oscillator might indicate a potential bullish / bearish Wave 3. Mathematically expressed, EWO is the difference between a 5 period and 35 period moving average. In this study instead 35-period, Fibonacci number 34 is implemented for the slow moving average and formula becomes ewo = sma (HL2, 5) - sma (HL2, 34)
The Elliott Wave Oscillator enables traders to track Elliott Wave counts and divergences. It allows traders to observe when an existing wave ends and when a new one begins. Included with the EWO are the breakout bands that help identify strong impulses.
The Expert Trend Locator ( XTL ) was developed by Tom Joseph (in his book Applying Technical Analysis) to identify major trends, similar to Elliott Wave 3 type swings.
Blue bars are bullish and indicate a potential upwards impulse.
Red bars are bearish and indicate a potential downwards impulse.
White bars indicate no trend is detected at the moment.
Added "TSI Arrows". The arrows is intended to help the viewer identify potential turning points. The presence of arrows indicates that the TSI indicator is either "curling" up under the signal line, or "curling" down over the signal line. This can help to anticipate reversals, or moves in favor of trend direction. Indicator
