UPDATE:

The Indicator is now finished and has been moved to MQL Market! I've created a panel that allows you to add and control multiple SR zones in one location. The panel also provides quick controls that allows the user to rapidly select different controls for each individual instance. In addition to this I've also added an alert system for the price boxes you draw around the zones through the indicator. Please check it out here and let me know what you guys think! Check it out here. Please let me know what your thoughts are. Thank you (:

Updated first post to newer version, V5. New version adds time frame to object name to better identify it. Previous version deleted lines of another time frame if it was the same color/type/and width.

SR zones are extremely important for trading and there are different ways of calculating/drawing (Pivot point calculation , Fibonacci, etc.). I believe the most reliable SR lines are drawn by which price has bounced off a zone multiple times, not through a calculation. I have created an "auto" sr indicator that uses zig to detect swing highs and lows, compares those points to each other and their distances through averaging of atr for that timeframe, and plots those zones on your chart. So far, its been very accurate and EXTREMELY USEFUL for myself...
Hi honeggeral, thank you for sharing your S/R indicator. I put it on my charts and it looks good so far.

I had some time to work on it a bit. New version, draws the lines into buffers instead of as objects. Please test and let me know how it is

Current M1 chart. Yellow represents Hourly SR zones and pink represents m15. Price bouncing off both very nicely

There are some issues with the new version. Indicator seems to have trouble updating. However the historical feature of it works. If you wish to see current points (in case there is a new bar on time frame you selected within indicator) you can refresh it by changing the timeframe on the chart. Off to bed now so will update it in the morning.

LOL. Very easy fix. Sorry for spamming my own thread version 7 is running fine now with indicator buffers. Off to bed

Hi honeggeral,
Is the V5 still a working version This seems to be a very good S&R indicator from my review of it so far. It reminds me of one that hardpippin has on his commercial site, but his plots two lines instead of one as yours does. I like to V5 version. Hope is is still a working version. Thank you for sharing.
Best trades to you.

Yes, Version 5 works just fine. I've included it back at the top. I'm going to steer more towards buffers just because I tend to use objects for other programs and sometimes it gets in the way. Version 7 works fine too and the historical feature works better on it, just need to make it a bit faster and prettier when displaying the current sr zone for the higher tf

Sorry Ede10,

I removed the indicator file.

I've decided I'm going to sell the indicator. Since the original post I've made several updates and it has become such an amazing tool. I will be posting a final version that includes many features onto mql. Will update this post when I do so.

I've finished creating the indicator and have posted it onto mql! You can find it here and the demo version to test on EURUSD here. I've added so many features to the indicator that makes it incredibly user friendly. You have the ability to add multiple SR zones from different timeframes and manage all of them through he indicator panel. Other features have been added such as alerts from price boxes you can draw, new and improved historical mode, and ability to load and save templates. Please check it out and let me know what you guys think.
