Support/Resistance or Supply/Demand whichever you prefer. Based on pivots and ATR. Change the n to get zones for the time you wish.

Update: ATR is now straight lines and user can input ATR multiple.

Join useThinkScript to post your question to a community of 21,000+ developers and traders.

Thanks for sharing the script. Very useful. For anyone with a shrinking chart after adding this indicator, be sure to uncheck the "Fit Studies" option on your chart (you can do so by left-click > Chart Scale).

I checked the source code and it looks like the script contains some of Mobuis' work from his other indicators called WolfWave and/or Pivot Array. If that's the case I would recommend keeping his old header or give credit to the developer.

@mc01439, Currently N vaule set for 21. Do you know what is the value for other time frame like 1mts, 5mts,15mts,hour,day,week and Monthly.
 
@mc01439, Currently N vaule set for 21. Do you know what is the value for other time frame like 1mts, 5mts,15mts,hour,day,week and Monthly.

@San - Like @BenTen said you need to test what works best for you and your style. I like n @ 21 for 8 range bars. Someone else more than likely would use something else. I do not trade minute charts but 21 seems to paint a lot of lines, too many for my taste. I like a clean chart with only key points marked. More is not better from my experience. The best to you.

@BenTen, what is the lookback period for this time frame " 1mts, 5mts,15mts,hour,day,week and Monthly."
@San, start at n=1 or 2 and add to it for each time frame until you get what works for you.
This is about you and your time frame & the way you like to see consolidation or pivots or S/R.
Trial and error until it is tuned in to your liking.

Greetings. I'm new to this forum but not to trading and TOS. I just wanted to say "thanks" for automating the Support and Resistance lines. I do have some questions, naturally.
1) Is there a way to remove the red and green boxes? I would be very happy with just the bubbles showing S1 and R1.
2) If I were to set my charts to Daily 1 year and Daily 10 years, what should the "n" factor be? And the same for 5 minutes charts?
 
This is the key here, settings:

You can clean up the code fairly easily to make it look like mine.

Hey @BenTen @horserider Wanted to get your thoughts, do you think the below chart is same as what you guys have posted above with the exception of labels or this is something we can incorporate into your existing code.Thank You for all your help

@mohitdas Are you referring to the yellow line? If so, I think that was drawn manually through the drawing tool.

Yes looks like they did make the yellow line, i was talking about the overall chart in general, i see they have various labels at the top showing Daily ATR's, PMZ's, Monthly/Weekly Extreme Bulish, i believe it also has Red/Green arrow pointers showing Entry/Exit and if we can do Alerts for Entry/Exit that would be great.
 
Hey guys I was wondering if it’s possible to create a supply and demand zone indicator with labels from larger time frames showing up within smaller time frames as demand or supply Zones?

can it be created with the ability to turn on or off any time frame Supply and demand zone we which to see within the smaller time frame?

let me know if this is possible

here is some reference https://www.tradedgecoding.com/product-page/supply-demand-zones
