Ideas to find equal high/lows code wise

Hello guys,

I'm looking for a way to find equal high/lows code wise but i'm a little bit stock for ideas.

Is there only one way to do that? Take one bar's low or high and compare like x bar back and then do that all over again for x bar back? It will be a slow indicator for sure.

Any ideas how to do this effectively?

Just came to my mind it's more less the same as double top/bottoms But then the few i have found does not work exactly like that cause they does not take into consideration if there are some candles in between

So you're looking for double tops/bottoms, or S/R?


1. Look for pivot points in price, where the low of a candle is lower than the lows of the candles before and after it. Candle 1 Low > Candle 2 Low < Candle 3 Low.

2. Save it as a variable. Continually update the value if you find lower values as you go forward.

3. Then 15-20 bars after finding the lowest value, start looking for lows with roughly the same value as the lowest value, plus or minus whatever precision/range you want (it depends on your timeframe as well).


Repeat for highs.
Always think for yourself.

I am not sure how this indi will help to detect equal highs and lows. it draws a line for each fractal on the chart

Yes that is correct, but mostly equal highs and lows (when we talk abaout liquiditypools) are not accurate to the pip. The MTF Fractal indicator places the lines on top of each other. When I see the fractallines stacked up in future, I know there is maybe a pool of liquidity.

I applied MTF Fractal and modified it a bit so that it doesn't stand out much in my charts might be helpful as you said to detect clusters.
has anyone found an ON/OFF button for this indicator? that'd be cool.
