Changing of the Guard (COG) - Advanced Reversal Pattern Indicator

🎯 What It Does

The Changing of the Guard (COG) indicator identifies high-probability reversal setups by detecting specific candlestick patterns that occur at key institutional levels. This indicator combines traditional price action analysis with volume-weighted and moving average confluence to filter out noise and focus on the most reliable trading opportunities.

🔧 Key Features

Multi-Timeframe VWAP Analysis
• Daily VWAP (Gray circles) - Intraday institutional reference
• Weekly VWAP (Yellow circles) - Short-term institutional bias
• Monthly VWAP (Orange circles) - Long-term institutional sentiment

Triple EMA System
• EMA 20 (Blue) - Short-term trend direction
• EMA 50 (Purple) - Medium-term momentum
• EMA 200 (Navy) - Long-term market structure

Adaptive COG Pattern Detection
• 2-Bar Mode: Quick reversal signals for scalping
• 3-Bar Mode: Balanced approach for swing trading (default)
• 4-Bar Mode: Conservative signals for position trading

📊 How It Works

The indicator identifies "changing of the guard" moments when:
1. Pattern Formation: 2-4 consecutive bars show exhaustion in one direction
2. Reversal Confirmation: A counter-trend bar appears with strong momentum
3. Confluence Trigger: The reversal bar crosses through a significant VWAP or EMA level

Bullish COG: Green triangle appears below bars when bearish exhaustion meets bullish reversal at key support
Bearish COG: Red triangle appears above bars when bullish exhaustion meets bearish reversal at key resistance

💡 Trading Applications

Swing Trading: Use 3-bar mode with EMA 50/200 confluence for multi-day holds
Day Trading: Use 2-bar mode with Daily VWAP confluence for intraday reversals
Position Trading: Use 4-bar mode with Monthly VWAP confluence for major trend changes

⚙️ Customization Options

• Toggle VWAP display on/off
• Toggle EMA display on/off
• Toggle COG signals on/off
• Select detection mode (2-bar, 3-bar, 4-bar)
• Built-in alert system for automated notifications

🎨 Visual Design

Clean, professional interface with:
• Subtle dotted lines for VWAPs to avoid chart clutter
• Color-coded EMAs for easy trend identification
• Clear triangle signals that don't obstruct price action
• Customizable display options for different trading styles

📈 Best Practices

• Combine with volume analysis for additional confirmation
• Use higher timeframe bias to filter trade direction
• Consider market structure and support/resistance levels
• Backtest different modes to find optimal settings for your strategy

⚠️ Risk Management

This indicator identifies potential reversal points but should be used with proper risk management. Always consider:

• Overall market trend and structure
• Volume confirmation
• Multiple timeframe analysis
• Appropriate position sizing

Perfect for traders who want to catch reversals at institutional levels with high-probability setups. The confluence requirement ensures you're trading with the smart money, not against it.
