Risk. Trading can lose money. A marker is a chart observation, not a prediction, and this script is checked on test data, not proven in live trading. Try it on the Practice balance first.

Marks the Williams %R cross back out of its oversold or overbought zone, but only when price is on the matching side of the EMA 50. The EMA turns the article's plain %R cross into a pullback-in-trend setup.
The rules
HIGHER marker
The close is above EMA 50 and Williams %R(14) closes above -80 after being at or below -80 on the previous candle.
LOWER marker
The close is below EMA 50 and Williams %R(14) closes below -20 after being at or above -20 on the previous candle.
A marker appears after the next candle opens and is drawn on the candle that completed the setup. It is a chart observation, not an instruction to trade.
How to read it
The orange line is the EMA 50 that sets the trend side. A green HIGHER triangle under a candle means %R has just left oversold while price is above the EMA; a red LOWER triangle above a candle is the mirror case below the EMA. Williams %R itself is not drawn, so add the native indicator below the chart if you want to see it.
Indicators used
- Williams %R (14, -80/-20)
- EMA (50)
Same view with built-in indicators: Add Williams Percent Range (14) with levels -80 and -20, plus an Exponential Moving Average (50) on the price chart.
Default settings
| Williams %R period | 14 |
|---|---|
| Oversold level | -80 |
| Overbought level | -20 |
| EMA period | 50 |
Every value is an input in the script settings. Platform advice is off by default.
Key points
- Williams %R measures where the close sits inside the recent high-to-low range.
- Below -80 is oversold and above -20 is overbought. The article trades the cross back out of those zones.
- This script adds a trend filter: the EMA 50 on the chart.
- HIGHER needs price above the EMA and %R closing back above -80, a pullback ending inside an uptrend.
- LOWER needs price below the EMA and %R closing back below -20.
- Markers use completed candles. Practise on a Practice balance first.
Limitations. The EMA filter is an addition to the article, which uses only the %R cross. In sideways markets price crosses the EMA often and the filter removes few false setups; in sharp reversals the EMA lags and the marker can come late. Test on the Practice balance before risking real funds.

--
-- Williams %R(14) shows when price closes near the top or bottom of its recent
-- range. A cross back out of the extreme zone, taken only in the direction of
-- the EMA 50 trend, marks the end of a pullback. The article's plain %R rule
-- (cross over -80 or under -20) is filtered by the EMA.
--
-- HIGHER: close is above EMA 50 and %R closes above -80 after being at or below it.
-- LOWER: close is below EMA 50 and %R closes below -20 after being at or above it.
--
-- Markers use the previous completed candle: they appear after the next candle
-- opens and are shifted back one bar onto the candle that qualified.
-- Educational chart tool only. It does not place trades, choose an expiry,
