ZigzagSR – Dynamic Zigzag Swings with Automated Support & Resistance

Unlock clearer market structure and precise entry zones with ZigzagSR, a powerful cTrader indicator that:

  • Plots non–repainting zigzag swings (higher highs, lower highs, higher lows, lower lows) in real time
  • Automatically draws dynamic support & resistance levels based on the most recent pivot swings
  • Labels each swing point (“HH”, “LH”, “HL”, “LL”) for at-a-glance trend clarity


Key Features

  • Adaptive Zigzag Detection
    • Configurable Depth, Deviation, and Backstep parameters to fine-tune sensitivity to market noise
    • Non-repainting logic ensures that historical signals remain stable once drawn
  • Automatic SR Levels
    • Draws a Pivot line at the last valid swing point (gold line)
    • Highlights up to the last three Resistance highs (red lines) and three Support lows (green lines) before the pivot
    • Lines update seamlessly as new swings form, keeping your chart tidy
  • Clear Visual Labels
    • “HH” (Higher High) and “LH” (Lower High) for bearish/higher peaks
    • “HL” (Higher Low) and “LL” (Lower Low) for bullish/lower troughs
    • Color–coded zigzag segments:
      • HH → Lime
      • LH → Orange
      • HL → Blue
      • LL → Red


Inputs & Customization

ParameterDefaultDescription

Depth

12

Look-back bars to identify local highs/lows

Deviation

5

Minimum price move (in ticks) to count as a swing

Backstep

3

Bars to “rewind” for suppressing false pivots

Tip: Increase Depth & Deviation on higher timeframes to filter noise; lower them on M1/M5 for sensitivity.


Why Use ZigzagSR?

  1. Trend Confirmation: Clearly distinguish impulsive swings vs. corrective moves—ideal for swing and breakout traders.
  2. SR Entry Zones: Automatically marked levels help you pinpoint entry, stop-loss, and take-profit zones without drawing lines manually.
  3. Strategy Development: Labels and lines feed directly into EAs/cBots or manual systems—build consistent, rules-based setups.


How It Works

  1. High/Low Mapping
    • Scans bars over the last Depth periods to flag local extremes (_highMap & _lowMap).
  2. Swing Construction
    • Alternates between bullish and bearish states, adding only significant pivots to the swing list.
  3. Label Assignment
    • Compares each pivot with the previous to tag it as HH/LH or HL/LL.
  4. SR Drawing
    • Identifies the latest pivot as the “pivot line,” then plots the preceding three valid highs and lows as resistance/support.
  5. Zigzag Rendering
    • Connects all swing points with colored trendlines and overlays text labels slightly offset for clarity.


Use Cases & Tips

  • Swing Trading: Ride multi-bar impulses—enter on pullbacks to the pivot line, target the next SR level.
  • Breakout Confirmation: Wait for price to pierce a resistance line drawn by ZigzagSR, then confirm with volume or RSI.
  • Overlay with Other Indicators: Combine with moving averages, RSI divergences, or volume profiles to strengthen signals.
