Evil's Two Legged Indicator
A pullback strategy indicator designed for scalping. This attempts to Identify classic 2-leg pullback patterns and filters out signals during choppy market conditions for better signals.
How It Works:
The indicator detects when price forms two pullback legs (swing lows in an uptrend or swing highs in a downtrend) near key support/resistance zones, then signals when reversal confirmation occurs. Equal-level pullbacks (double bottoms/tops) are marked as stronger signals.
Features:
Channel Options: Donchian (default), Linear Regression, or ATR Bands
Configurable EMA: For trend confirmation (default 21)
Adjustable Leg Detection: Swing lookback period for different timeframes
Equal Level Detection: Highlights stronger setups where both legs terminate at similar prices
Three Chop Filters (can be combined):
ADX Filter — suppresses signals when ADX is below threshold (default 25)
EMA Slope Filter — suppresses signals when EMA is flat
Chop Index Filter — suppresses signals when Chop Index indicates ranging conditions
Signal Types:
Standard signals: 2-leg pullback detected with trend confirmation
Strong signals (highlighted): 2-leg pullback with equal highs/lows — higher probability setup
Recommended Use:
Best suited for scalping on 1-5 minute chart. Designed for 1.5:1 risk/reward setups.
Settings Guide:

Settings Guide:
- Increase "Swing Lookback" for fewer, higher-quality signals

- Enable/disable chop filters based on your market and timeframe
- Use "Show Strong Signals Only" to filter for highest conviction setups
