OPEN-SOURCE SCRIPT
Updated Trapper Market Structure (HH, HL, LH, LL)
This script is designed to visually identify price action market structure in real time using pivot-based logic. It highlights the key components of trend direction by labeling:
- **HH** – Higher Highs
- **HL** – Higher Lows
- **LH** – Lower Highs
- **LL** – Lower Lows
These labels help traders track evolving market conditions and spot trend continuations, breaks in structure, or potential reversals — all without guessing.
**How It Works**
The script detects local swing highs and lows based on a customizable pivot strength. Once a valid pivot is confirmed, it’s classified in context with the previous relevant pivot to determine its structural significance.
For example:
- If a pivot high is higher than the previous, it’s marked as a **HH**.
- If a pivot low is lower than the previous, it’s marked as a **LL**, and so on.
This running analysis helps traders anticipate shifts between bullish and bearish structures.
**Customizable Features**
- Adjust **Pivot Strength** to increase or reduce sensitivity (more reactive or more stable)
- Toggle **Labels** on/off for cleaner charts
- Toggle **Connecting Lines** between pivots to visualize structure flow
**Use Case**
This indicator is ideal for:
- Price action traders
- Market structure analysis
- Identifying entry zones during pullbacks (e.g., buying at HLs during uptrends)
- Confirming trend reversals or break-of-structure (BoS)
You can use this tool as a foundation for more advanced systems such as CHoCH/BOS detection, liquidity zones, or sniper-style entry frameworks.
**Concepts Used**
- Swing High/Low detection using `ta.pivothigh` and `ta.pivotlow`
- Market structure labeling logic
- Visual flow to reinforce trader psychology on trend states
