Reversal Zones with Signals
May 28, 2024

The Reversal Zones with Signals indicator identifies potential market turning points by combining pivot-based swing detection with overbought and oversold RSI conditions. This tool provides traders with visual support and resistance levels derived from significant price extremes, paired with actionable entry signals when price interacts with these zones.
Usage
The indicator can be used to identify key areas of interest where price is likely to react. When a swing low occurs while the RSI is below the oversold threshold, a green support zone is plotted. Conversely, when a swing high occurs while the RSI is above the overbought threshold, a red resistance zone is plotted.
- Buy Signals: A green "BUY" label is plotted when the price crosses above an established bottom reversal zone, suggesting a potential bullish recovery.
- Sell Signals: A red "SELL" label is plotted when the price crosses below an established top reversal zone, suggesting a potential bearish continuation or reversal.
- Trend Context: Traders can use the horizontal zone lines to gauge historical areas of supply and demand that were formed during peak momentum periods.
Details
The script utilizes ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow functions with a fixed 5-bar lookback to identify structural turning points. These pivots are only converted into "Zones" if the RSI (14) confirms a momentum extreme (based on user-defined OB/OS levels). This ensures that zones are only drawn when the market is technically overextended, increasing the probability of a meaningful reversal. The zones are projected forward for a user-defined number of bars, creating a temporary window of relevance for the support or resistance level.
Settings
- Sensitivity: Controls the period of the internal moving averages (note: primarily used for internal calculations and overall sensitivity).
- RSI OverBought Value: The threshold above which a swing high will trigger a red resistance zone.
- RSI OverSold Value: The threshold below which a swing low will trigger a green support zone.
- Zone Length (bars): Determines how many bars into the future the reversal zone lines will extend from their origin point.
FAQ
How do I use the reversal zones?
The zones act as dynamic support and resistance. A buy or sell signal is triggered when the price successfully "reclaims" a zone (crossing above support or below resistance), indicating the previous extreme level is now acting as a pivot for a new move.
Can I change the RSI settings?
Yes, you can adjust the RSI OverBought and OverSold values in the settings menu to make the indicator more or less restrictive based on market volatility.
