Lin Reg (Linear Regression) Support & Resistance by xxMargaux 💸

This indicator plots three linear regression lines (Lin Reg) on the price chart, providing insights into potential support and resistance levels. It calculates Lin Reg lines based on user-defined lengths and sources.

This indicator's settings were initially configured for MNQ1! (E-Mini Nasdaq 100 futures contracts). But works as intended on any security and on any timeframe.

When price is below a given Lin Reg line, that line will be red and may serve as resistance as price moves up towards the line. That is, it may be a potential short entry opportunity. When price is above a given Lin Reg line, that line will be green and may serve as support as price continues up from the line. That is, it may be a potential long entry opportunity.

When price starts to break sideways or down through the Lin Reg lines, this may signal a reversal from uptrend to downtrend. When price starts to break sideways or up through the Lin Reg Lines, this may signal a reversal from downtrend to uptrend. In very strong trends, breaking through the lines briefly may provide an entry opportunity, but be cautious because a trend reversal may also be possible.

Inputs:

Length of Price Lin Reg Lines: Customize the lengths of the three Lin Reg lines.
Source for Price Lin Reg Lines: Choose the source for each Lin Reg line.
Source for Security Price: Select the price source for the security.

Features:

Trend Analysis: Assists in visualizing price trends based on the relationship between the security price and Lin Reg lines, which will be colored according to whether price is above or below each Lin Reg line.

Customizable Colors: When price is above a Lin Reg line that line will be green. When price is below a Lin Reg line, that line will be red.

Here's a beginner-friendly explanation of linear regression lines 💡

Best-Fit Line: Imagine you have a scatter plot of closing prices on a chart. Linear regression aims to find the straight line that best fits the overall trend of these data points. It's like drawing a line through the center of the data that minimizes the distance between the line and each data point.

Trend Identification: Once the linear regression line is plotted on a price chart, it provides a visual representation of the trend. If the price is generally rising, the linear regression line will slope upwards. If the price is falling, the line will slope downwards. This helps traders identify whether the trend is bullish (upward) or bearish (downward).

Support and Resistance: Linear regression lines can also act as dynamic support and resistance levels. When the price is above the linear regression line, it may act as support, meaning the price tends to bounce off the line and continue higher. Conversely, when the price is below the line, it may act as resistance, with the price encountering selling pressure and potentially reversing lower.

Reversal Signals: Changes in the slope or direction of the linear regression line can signal potential trend reversals. For example, if the price breaks above a downward-sloping linear regression line, it may indicate a shift from a downtrend to an uptrend, and vice versa.

Adjustable Parameters: Traders can customize the length of the linear regression line by adjusting the period over which it's calculated. Shorter periods may be more sensitive to recent price changes, while longer periods may provide a smoother trend line.
