Fibonacci Trend Scouting with Swing Anchors and Higher-Timeframe Levels
Summary
This indicator combines short- and longer-term swing structure with Fibonacci retracement levels. Users can choose source data or highs and lows, set separate lengths for the two trend views, and select which detected swing points anchor each line. The script draws configurable trend lines and Fibonacci levels, with optional labels and visual extensions. It also plots three exponential averages calculated on higher timeframes, with selectable sources, periods, and display styles.
The document is primarily a configurable charting tool rather than a complete trading strategy: it does not specify entry, exit, or position-sizing rules, nor does it provide performance tests. Its higher-timeframe calculations use lookahead enabled, which can expose values before those bars have completed and may make historical displays differ from information available in live trading. Fibonacci levels and plotted trends therefore serve as visual references whose usefulness requires separate evaluation.
Key ideas
- The indicator draws separate short- and longer-term trend lines from selected swing points.
- Fibonacci retracement levels are calculated and displayed for the detected trend structure.
- Users can configure three higher-timeframe exponential averages and their presentation.
- The script supplies charting features but no explicit trade rules or performance evidence.
- Lookahead in higher-timeframe calculations can make historical plots misleading for real-time use.
