Longable/Shortable

This is not a buy/sell indicator - it is a FILTER that is meant to SUPPRESS trades you may have wanted to take. Like a Daily Bias, but with a neutral position (no bias).
The indicator shows when NOT to take longs and when NOT to take shorts.
So you need an existing strategy to combine this with.
By default, the last 3 days are taken into account (smoothing=3). Change the threshold to get fewer or more warning signals.
The symbols are very simple:
- Green triangle = Longs only
- Red triangle = Shorts only
(Each signal is valid for the next candle. After that it expires.)
The current bias is also shown in the bottom right corner.
How it works: We look at which parts of the last candle overlap with the current one. When the new candle's low is far above the last candle's low, it is an indication not to go short. Similarly, when the new candle's high is far below the last candle's high, it is an indication not to go long.
For each direction, we calculate this as a percentage value (what percentage of the last candle is not overlapping the new one), smooth the value and give a signal when we are above the set threshold.
- Fixed the realtime label to reflect the last confirmed candle (not the current candle).
- Improved the value display in status line/data window to show the exact "longability" and "shortabilty" scores (positive = direction is tradeable, negative = direction is not tradeable).
This has 2 advantages:
- The maximum value of the "longable" and "shortable" scores displayed next to the indicator is now identical to the threshold value.
- The parameter is now much easier to explain: Threshold 35 means that 35% of the top and bottom of each candle must be revisited by the next candle - otherwise a warning signal is generated.
