XI0033 Williams FractalA Williams fractal confirms late by definition: the pattern is complete only after the bars to its right have closed, so the marker always appears in the past. This script keeps the classic fractal template — three- or five-bar — and adds the one thing the classic version cannot show: the bar that is about to become a fractal, before the confirmation arrives.
It draws triangles for confirmed fractal highs and lows, plus one highlighted triangle for the last potential fractal on the live edge. Nothing else: no lines, no levels, no signals.
Confirmed fractals
A fractal high is a bar whose high stands above the highs of its neighbours; a fractal low mirrors that on the lows. The 3-bar mode compares one neighbour on each side, the 5-bar mode two on each side — the original Bill Williams definition. The Periods input sets how many bars back the reference bar sits. Confirmed fractals are painted as muted grey triangles above the highs and below the lows, and once the pattern that produced them is closed, they are history: they do not move and do not disappear.
Confirmed fractal highs and lows in the muted default colour: every triangle marks a bar whose extreme beat its neighbours on both sides, printed only after the pattern completed.
The last potential fractal
This is the addition. One bar to the right of the last confirmable centre there is always a candidate: a bar already higher (or lower) than its closed neighbours, waiting only for the current bar to keep its distance. The script highlights that candidate with an orange triangle — pointing down above a potential high, pointing up below a potential low — so the developing swing is visible before it becomes official.
The highlight exists only on the live bar. It is recalculated tick by tick, disappears the moment price violates the candidate, and is deliberately dropped on the bar's final update, so it never leaves a trace in the chart history. Scroll back and you will find only confirmed fractals.
Left: the orange triangle under the newest low is the last potential fractal. Right, a few bars later: that low now carries a grey confirmed triangle — the preview left no trace — and a new potential fractal already sits above the latest high.
What repaints, and what does not
The potential marker repaints by design — that is its job. It is a live preview that appears, moves and vanishes with the current bar, and it is intentionally not committed to history. Confirmed fractals in the default 3-bar mode are built from closed bars only, so once a triangle prints, it is final. In the 5-bar mode with the default period, the newest confirmation still involves the forming bar's extreme, so it can appear and be withdrawn until that bar closes; after the close it is final. And every confirmed fractal is late by definition — the triangle appears above a bar that is already in the past, because that is what confirmation means.
What is reused, and what is new
The confirmed-fractal logic is the classic Bill Williams fractal template as coded by Mit Nayi, reused open-source with attribution in the source header. What this edit adds: the port to Pine Script v6, and the whole potential-fractal layer — the candidate detection one bar to the right of the confirmable centre, and the barstate mechanism that shows the preview on the live bar only and drops it on the bar's final update, so it never piles up in history.
What it does not do
It gives no signals. A fractal marks a local extreme, and most local extremes get traded through; on their own they are not entries. This is a structural marker — swing logic, liquidity maps and ICT-style analysis use fractals as raw material, and the potential marker only tells you where the next one may appear. The decision stays yours.
The Inputs allow you to set:
Periods: how many bars back the fractal centre sits; the triangles are drawn on that centre bar
3 or 5 Bar Fractal: one or two neighbours compared on each side
Show last potential fractal: the live-edge preview on or off
Potential down and up fractal colours

Larry Williams Qualified Trend Break Signals [tradeviZion]Larry Williams Qualified Trend Break Signals - Description
📖 Introduction
Welcome to the Larry Williams Qualified Trend Break Signals indicator. This description explains how the indicator works, its settings, and how to use it.
This indicator demonstrates Larry Williams' Qualified Trend Line Break technique - his preferred method for timing precise entries on daily charts when you already have a confirmed market setup.
---
🎯 About This Script
This indicator implements the Qualified Trend Line Break system - an entry technique that qualifies trend line breaks for better timing.
Important: This is NOT a signal generator. It's an entry timing tool for traders who already have a market setup and confirmation. Use it only after establishing weekly bias and daily confirmation.
Why We Made This Indicator:
This indicator demonstrates Larry Williams' favorite entry technique for daily timeframe trading. It's designed to be used as part of his complete methodology:
How To Use It Properly:
First, establish your setup: Check weekly chart for overall market bias (bullish/bearish)
Then confirm on daily: Look for confirmation signals on daily timeframe
Finally, use trend breaks: Enter trades only when trend breaks align with your setup direction
Important Warning: This is NOT a standalone buy/sell signal indicator. Using trend breaks without proper setup and confirmation will likely produce poor results. It's a timing tool for entries, not a signal generator.

About The Qualification Rules
The system improves on qualification methodology with these key changes:
For BUY signals (breaking above downtrend lines):
Break is usually bad if previous bar closed higher
But can still be good if:
Previous bar was inside the prior bar AND that prior bar closed lower
Price gaps above trend line and moves up at least one tick
Previous bar closed below its own opening price
For SELL signals (breaking below uptrend lines):
Break is usually bad if previous bar closed lower
But can still be good if:
Previous bar was inside the prior bar AND that prior bar closed higher
Price gaps below trend line and moves down at least one tick
Previous bar closed above its own opening price

📐 How The Qualification System Works
The trend break system is based on qualification methodology as developed by Larry Williams . It solves the problem where trend line breaks often fail and price goes back.
Trend Line Setup:
For BUY signals: Connect the two most recent declining swing highs to make a downtrend line
For SELL signals: Connect the two most recent rising swing lows to make an uptrend line
Inside Bar Rule:
A key principle: Trend breaks that occur on inside bars are completely ignored. The system only evaluates breaks that occur on regular bars, making signals more reliable.
How It Works In The Code
The indicator follows these steps:
Finds swing points: Identifies highs and lows in the price action
Draws trend lines: Connects 2 recent swing points to make trend lines
Checks inside bars: Ignores breaks that happen on inside bars
Qualifies signals: Uses the rules to check if breaks are good or bad
Shows signals: Only displays qualified BUY/SELL signals
Optional feature: Can show disqualified signals
⚙️ Settings
The indicator has 3 groups of settings to customize how it works.

💡 How To Use It In Larry Williams Methodology
Step 1 - Weekly Setup: Identify market bias on weekly chart (clear bullish/bearish trend)
Step 2 - Daily Confirmation: Find confirmation signals on daily timeframe
Step 3 - Trend Break Entry: Use qualified trend breaks only in setup direction
Important: Never enter based on trend breaks alone - always require setup + confirmation first
⚠️ Important Notice
This indicator implements Larry Williams' trend break entry technique. It should NOT be used as standalone buy/sell signals. Only use trend breaks for entry timing after you have established a proper market setup and confirmation. Poor results will occur if using signals without the complete Larry Williams methodology.

Swing High-Low Line ConnectorSwing High-Low Line Connector is a simple and intuitive tool that automatically detects swing highs and swing lows using fractal-style pivot logic and connects them with clean, continuous lines. This indicator helps traders visualize market structure, trend shifts, and swing-based support/resistance levels at a glance.
The script identifies each confirmed swing point based on a user-defined lookback window (left/right bars). When a new swing is confirmed, the indicator updates the previous leg or creates a new one, effectively drawing the classic “zigzag-style” connections used in discretionary trading and price-action analysis.
A dynamic tail extension is included to show the most recent swing extending toward the current price. By default, the tail follows a ZigZag-style logic—extending upward after a swing low and downward after a swing high—but users can also anchor it to Close, High, Low, or HL2.
Features
Automatic detection of swing highs and swing lows
Clean line connections between swings (similar to discretionary market-structure mapping)
Proper consolidation handling: weaker highs/lows are ignored
Optional ZigZag-style dynamic tail extension
Fully customizable lookback window, line color, and line width
Works on any market and timeframe
Use Cases
Identifying market structure (HH, HL, LH, LL)
Visualizing trend transitions
Spotting breakout levels and swing-based support/resistance
Aiding discretionary swing trading, trend following, or pattern recognition
This indicator keeps the logic simple and visual—ideal for traders who prefer clean chart structure without unnecessary noise. Indicator
High Time Frame (HTF) Swing PointsIdentify and display swing highs and lows across multiple higher timeframes on a chart, overlaying horizontal lines and customizable labels at these swing points.
Timeframes
Five user-defined higher timeframes (default settings: 5-minute, 15-minute, 1-hour, 4-hour, and daily)
Manually show/hide individual timeframes
When chart’s timeframe is set higher than one of the five configured, the indicator will automatically hide it. This helps to prevent clutter when navigating between timeframes on the chart
Swing Levels
Configure the line color, opacity, width and weather it’s solid/dotted/dashed
Once swing levels are identified, the indicator will look for the chart candle where the line starts
When price crosses the swing level, the line will be terminated
Tags
Customize the tag text for each individual timeframe, using blank if a tag is not desired for that timeframe
A tag text color can be set for all tags or base it on the line color
Set tag text size based on: Auto, Tiny, Small, Normal, Large
Choose how far to the right of the line the tag text should appear, as an integer representing the size of a candle
Choose to clear the tag or leave it in place after price crosses a swing level
Use Cases
Visualize key swing points from higher timeframes to identify potential reversal or breakout zones
Identify possible low resistance liquidity run (LRLR) areas
Use swing points for stop placement or as targets or draws on liquidity

FVG + Swings + ConfigurableOverview
This Pine Script v5 indicator highlights Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), plots swing‑high and swing‑low pivots, and marks single breakouts above the last swing‑high or below the last swing‑low by recoloring the breakout candle. Every aspect—gap size, count limits, colors, and feature toggles—is exposed as an input so you can tailor it to your own workflow.
Key Features
Fair Value Gaps
Detects bullish gaps when the high of bar i-2 is below the low of the current bar.
Detects bearish gaps when the low of bar i-2 is above the high of the current bar.
Draws a semi‑transparent rectangle spanning from bar i-2 to bar i + extension.
Automatically deletes oldest boxes when exceeding the user’s “Max FVG Boxes” limit.
Swing‑High / Swing‑Low Pivots
Identifies a swing‑high when the middle candle of a three‑bar sequence has the highest high.
Identifies a swing‑low when the middle candle has the lowest low.
Marks each pivot with a tiny dot above (high) or below (low) the bar.
Single Breakouts
Tracks the most recent swing‑high and swing‑low levels.
On the first close above the last swing‑high (or below the last swing‑low), recolors that single candle.
Prevents repeated coloring until a new swing pivot forms.
Full Customization
Show/Hide toggles for FVGs, swing pivots, breakouts.
Numeric inputs for FVG extension length and maximum retained boxes.
Color pickers for bullish/bearish gaps, swing pivots, and breakout candles. Indicator
Inside Bar with Swing PointsSwing Points with Inside Bar
This script combines swing point analysis with an inside bar pattern visualization, merging essential concepts to identify and visualize key price levels and potential trend reversals. This is especially useful for traders looking to understand price action through swing levels and reactions within inside bar boundaries, making it effective for short-term trend analysis and reversal zone identification.
Script Features:
Swing Point Analysis:
The script identifies swing points based on fractals with a configurable number of bars, allowing for a choice between three and five bars, helping traders fine-tune sensitivity to price movements.
Swing points are visualized as labels, highlighting potential reversal or continuation zones in the price chart.
Inside Bar Visualization:
Inside bars are defined as bars where both the high and low are contained within the previous bar. These often signal consolidation before a potential breakout.
The script displays boundaries of the mother bar (the initial bar encompassing inside bars) and colors candles accordingly, highlighting those within these boundaries.
This feature helps traders focus on price areas where a breakout or trend shift may occur.
Utility and Application:
The script enables traders to visualize inside bars and swing points, which is particularly useful for short-term traders focused on reversal or trend continuation strategies.
Combining swing point analysis with inside bar identification offers a unique approach, helping traders locate key consolidation zones that may precede significant price moves.
This provides not only strong support and resistance levels but also insights into probable breakout points.
How to Use the Script:
Set the number of bars for swing point analysis (3 or 5) to adjust fractal sensitivity.
Enable mother bar boundary visualization and color indication for inside bars to easily spot consolidation patterns.
Pay attention to areas with multiple swing points and inside bars, as these often signal potential reversal or breakout zones.
This script offers flexible tools for analyzing price movements through both swing analysis and consolidation zone identification, aiding decision-making under uncertainty and enhancing market structure understanding. Indicator
Tweet/X Post Timestamp - By LeviathanThis script allows you to generate visual timestamps of X/Twitter posts directly on your chart, highlighting the precise moment an X post/tweet was made. All you have to do is copy and paste the post URL.
◽️ Use Cases:
- News Trading: Traders can use this indicator to visually align market price actions with news or announcements made on X (formerly Twitter), aiding in the analysis of news impact on market volatility.
- Behavioral Analysis: Traders studying the influence of social media on price can use the timestamps to track correlations between specific posts and market reactions.
- Proof of Predictions: Traders can use this indicator to timestamp their market forecasts shared on X (formerly Twitter), providing a visual record of their predictions relative to actual market movements. This feature allows for transparent verification of the timing and accuracy of their analyses
◽️ Process of Timestamp Calculation
The calculation of the timestamp from a tweet ID involves the following steps:
Extracting the Post ID:
The script first parses the input URL provided by the user to extract the unique ID of the tweet or X post. This ID is embedded in the URL and is crucial for determining the exact posting time.
Calculating the Timestamp:
The post ID undergoes a mathematical transformation known as a right shift by 22 bits. This operation aligns the ID's timestamp to a base reference time used by the platform.
Adding Base Offset:
The result from the right shift is then added to a base offset timestamp (1288834974657 ms, the epoch used by Twitter/X). This converts the processed ID into a UNIX timestamp reflecting the exact moment the post was made.
Date-Time Conversion:
The UNIX timestamp is further broken down into conventional date and time components (year, month, day, hour, minute, second) using calculations that account for leap years and varying days per month.
Label Placement:
Based on user settings, labels displaying the timestamp, username, and other optional information such as price changes or pivot points are dynamically placed on the chart at the bar corresponding to the timestamp. Indicator
Indicator
Swing Levels and Liquidity - By LeviathanThis script will plot pivot points (swing highs and lows) in the form of lines, boxes or labels to help you identify market structure, “liquidity” areas, swing failure patterns, etc. You are also able to see the volume traded at each pivot point, which will help you compare their significance.
Bars Left-Right
A pivot high (swing high) is a bar in a series of bars that has a higher value than the bars around it and a pivot low (swing low) is a bar in a series of bars that has a lower value than the bars surrounding it. The Bars Left and Bars Right parameters are used to define the number of bars on the left and right sides of a pivot point that the function should consider when identifying pivot highs and lows in a time series. For example, if Bars Left is set to 5 and Bars Right is set to 6, the function will look for a pivot point by comparing the value of the current bar with the values of the 5 bars to its left and the 6 bars to its right. If the value of the current bar is higher than all of these bars, it is considered a pivot high point. These parameter can be used to adjust the sensitivity of the script (lowering the Bars Left and Bars Right parameters will give you more swing points and increasing the Bars Left and Bars Right parameters will give you fewer swing points).
”Show Boxes” - This will draw a box above the swing high and a box below the swing low to help you visualise a large area of interest around swing points. Additional box types and the width of the box can be adjusted in Appearance settings below.
”Show Lines” - This will draw a horizontal line at the level of each swing high and swing low.
”Show Labels” - This will plot a circle at the high point of each swing high and at the low point of each swing low.
”Show Volume” - This will display the amount of volume traded in a given swing point candle. It can help you identify the significance of a given swing point by comparing it to the volumes of other swing points.
”Extend Until Filled” - This will extend the swing point levels until they are mitigated by the price. Turning it off will continue plotting the levels just a few more bars after a swing point occurs.
”Appearance” - You can show/hide swing points, choose the colors of labels, lines and boxes, choose the size and positioning of the text, choose line and box appearance (adjust the Box Width when switching between timeframes!) and more.
