ABC Pattern Scanner

The ABC Pattern Scanner monitors up to 20 symbols simultaneously for Fibonacci-validated ABC corrective patterns. The scanner displays real-time pattern status in a color-coded table tracking each setup through its full lifecycle — from formation through entry trigger to confirmation or invalidation — and fires alerts the moment any symbol's state changes.

Key Features

Quick Setup

  1. Add the ABC Pattern Scanner to your TradingView chart
  2. 10 popular instruments are pre-configured (NQ, ES, YM, GC, SI, CL, EURUSD, BTCUSDT, NVDA, GOOG)
  3. Default detection size is 7 — suits intraday and faster ABC corrections
  4. Default retracement range is 50%–88.6% — Fibonacci-validated C point depth
  5. Default entry method is Bar Confirmation; default target is Fixed Risk Reward (2R)
  6. The scanner table shows real-time status with state vocabulary (ACTIVE / UP CONF / DN CONF / FAILED) and color coding
Quick Start

Start with the pre-configured symbols. When you see a cell flip to ACTIVE, a valid ABC pattern is forming on that symbol — switch to the ABC Pattern Pro indicator on that instrument to validate the A-B-C structure visually and prepare your order. When the cell flips to UP CONF or DN CONF, the entry has been confirmed by a follow-through close.

FAQ

How many symbols and detection scales does the ABC Pattern Scanner monitor?

The ABC Pattern Scanner monitors up to 20 symbols simultaneously and runs two concurrent detection scales. The primary scale catches intraday and shorter ABC corrections; the optional secondary scale surfaces broader structural pullbacks. 10 popular instruments come pre-configured (NQ, ES, YM, GC, SI, CL, EURUSD, BTCUSDT, NVDA, GOOG).

What is the difference between the ABC Pattern Scanner and ABC Pattern Pro?

The ABC Pattern Pro draws the full ABC structure (A-B-C points, retracement levels, entry/stop/target) on a single chart. The ABC Pattern Scanner uses the same detection engine but applies it across 20 symbols in a status table — surfacing setups across the watchlist without the per-chart visualization. Most traders run both: the scanner finds setups, the Pro indicator analyzes them in detail.

Can the ABC Pattern Scanner send orders to a broker automatically?

Yes. Every confirmed entry can fire a TradersPost-compatible JSON alert containing entry price, stop level, take-profit target, risk/reward ratio, and an auto-computed position size from account size and per-trade risk %. Connect the webhook to TradersPost or any compatible execution venue for automated routing.

What states does the ABC Pattern Scanner track per symbol?

The ABC Pattern Scanner tracks six states per direction — `--` (no pattern), ACTIVE (pattern formed, waiting for entry), UP/DN (entry trigger crossed intrabar, unconfirmed), UP CONF/DN CONF (entry confirmed by follow-through close, distinct cell fill), and FAILED (pattern invalidated before entry triggered).
