**Overview**
The ATR-Based Stop Loss Indicator is a custom tool designed for traders using TradingView. It helps you determine optimal stop loss levels by leveraging the Average True Range (ATR), a popular measure of market volatility. By adapting to current market conditions, this indicator aims to minimize premature stop-outs and enhance your risk management strategy.
---
**Key Features**
- **Dynamic Stop Loss Levels**: Calculates stop loss prices based on the ATR, providing both long and short stop loss suggestions.
- **Customizable Parameters**: Adjust the ATR period, multiplier, and smoothing method to suit your trading style and the specific instrument you're trading.
- **Visual Aids**: Plots stop loss lines directly on your chart for easy visualization.
- **Alerts and Notifications** (Optional): Set up alerts to notify you when the price approaches or hits your stop loss levels.
---
**Understanding the Indicator**
1. **Average True Range (ATR)**:
- **What It Is**: ATR measures market volatility by calculating the average range between high and low prices over a specified period.
- **Why It's Useful**: A higher ATR indicates higher volatility, which can help you set stop losses that accommodate market fluctuations.
2. **ATR Multiplier**:
- **Purpose**: Determines how far your stop loss is placed from the current price based on the ATR.
- **Example**: An ATR multiplier of 1.5 means the stop loss is set at 1.5 times the ATR away from the current price.
3. **Smoothing Methods**:
- **Options**: Choose from RMA (default), SMA, EMA, WMA, or Hull MA.
- **Effect**: Different smoothing methods can make the ATR more responsive or smoother, affecting where the stop loss is placed.
---
**How the Indicator Works**
- **Long Stop Loss Calculation**:
- **Formula**: `Long Stop Loss = Close Price - (ATR * ATR Multiplier)`
- **Purpose**: For long positions, the stop loss is set below the current price to protect against downside risk.
- **Short Stop Loss Calculation**:
- **Formula**: `Short Stop Loss = Close Price + (ATR * ATR Multiplier)`
- **Purpose**: For short positions, the stop loss is set above the current price to protect against upside risk.
- **Plotting on the Chart**:
- **Green Line**: Represents the suggested stop loss level for long positions.
- **Red Line**: Represents the suggested stop loss level for short positions.

Season ChartThis overlay is built on the idea of seasonal charts.
It is constructed by taking the percentage change from each close and recording that change for every trading day of any year that is within the sample. We then take the average for each day of all the years.
These averages are then cumulated to create the chart as per traditional seasonal chart construction.
I have also taken a trimmed mean of the averages to try and dampen the impact one off moves that may have a dramatic effect on the daily averages (for example the crash to $0 in oil in April 2020) however, even removing 10% may not guarantee one off moves won’t affect the average.
The construction of the chart is completely dependent on the data provided by TradingView and so it is recommended that if longer sample sizes are used, the user go back to check that the years contained within the sample have a full history. Some data may have large gaps in their history and this can distort the seasonality readings.
I have attempted to align the chart with the first trading day of the year, but the start of some months may be out by a day or two as it becomes difficult to track all weeks with differing market holidays closures each year and this in turn varies the total amount of actual trading days in each year as well as leap years.
This overlay is designed for the Daily time frame only and will not work on Crypto or any other instrument that trades outside of usual business weekdays. Future updates may include the ability to adapt to Crypto instruments.

RSI Trend Following StrategyOverview
The RSI Trend Following Strategy utilizes Relative Strength Index (RSI) to enter the trade for the potential trend continuation. It uses Stochastic indicator to check is the price is not in overbought territory and the MACD to measure the current price momentum. Moreover, it uses the 200-period EMA to filter the counter trend trades with the higher probability. The strategy opens only long trades.
Unique Features
Dynamic stop-loss system: Instead of fixed stop-loss level strategy utilizes average true range (ATR) multiplied by user given number subtracted from the position entry price as a dynamic stop loss level.
Configurable Trading Periods: Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Two layers trade filtering system: Strategy utilizes MACD and Stochastic indicators measure the current momentum and overbought condition and use 200-period EMA to filter trades against major trend.
Trailing take profit level: After reaching the trailing profit activation level script activates the trailing of long trade using EMA. More information in methodology.
Wide opportunities for strategy optimization: Flexible strategy settings allows users to optimize the strategy entries and exits for chosen trading pair and time frame.
Methodology
The strategy opens long trade when the following price met the conditions:
RSI is above 50 level.
MACD line shall be above the signal line
Both lines of Stochastic shall be not higher than 80 (overbought territory)
Candle’s low shall be above the 200 period EMA
When long trade is executed, strategy set the stop-loss level at the price ATR multiplied by user-given value below the entry price. This level is recalculated on every next candle close, adjusting to the current market volatility.
At the same time strategy set up the trailing stop validation level. When the price crosses the level equals entry price plus ATR multiplied by user-given value script starts to trail the price with trailing EMA(by default = 20 period). If price closes below EMA long trade is closed. When the trailing starts, script prints the label “Trailing Activated”.
Strategy settings
In the inputs window user can setup the following strategy settings:
ATR Stop Loss (by default = 1.75)
ATR Trailing Profit Activation Level (by default = 2.25)
MACD Fast Length (by default = 12, period of averaging fast MACD line)
MACD Fast Length (by default = 26, period of averaging slow MACD line)
MACD Signal Smoothing (by default = 9, period of smoothing MACD signal line)
Oscillator MA Type (by default = EMA, available options: SMA, EMA)
Signal Line MA Type (by default = EMA, available options: SMA, EMA)
RSI Length (by default = 14, period for RSI calculation)
Trailing EMA Length (by default = 20, period for EMA, which shall be broken close the trade after trailing profit activation)
Justification of Methodology
This trading strategy is designed to leverage a combination of technical indicators—Relative Strength Index (RSI), Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), Stochastic Oscillator, and the 200-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA)—to determine optimal entry points for long trades. Additionally, the strategy uses the Average True Range (ATR) for dynamic risk management to adapt to varying market conditions. Let's look in details for which purpose each indicator is used for and why it is used in this combination.
Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a momentum indicator used in technical analysis to measure the speed and change of price movements in a financial market. It helps traders identify whether an asset is potentially overbought (overvalued) or oversold (undervalued), which can indicate a potential reversal or continuation of the current trend.
How RSI Works? RSI tracks the strength of recent price changes. It compares the average gains and losses over a specific period (usually 14 periods) to assess the momentum of an asset. Average gain is the average of all positive price changes over the chosen period. It reflects how much the price has typically increased during upward movements. Average loss is the average of all negative price changes over the same period. It reflects how much the price has typically decreased during downward movements.
RSI calculates these average gains and losses and compares them to create a value between 0 and 100. If the RSI value is above 70, the asset is generally considered overbought, meaning it might be due for a price correction or reversal downward. Conversely, if the RSI value is below 30, the asset is considered oversold, suggesting it could be poised for an upward reversal or recovery. RSI is a useful tool for traders to determine market conditions and make informed decisions about entering or exiting trades based on the perceived strength or weakness of an asset's price movements.
This strategy uses RSI as a short-term trend approximation. If RSI crosses over 50 it means that there is a high probability of short-term trend change from downtrend to uptrend. Therefore RSI above 50 is our first trend filter to look for a long position.
The MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) is a popular momentum and trend-following indicator used in technical analysis. It helps traders identify changes in the strength, direction, momentum, and duration of a trend in an asset's price.
The MACD consists of three components:
MACD Line: This is the difference between a short-term Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and a long-term EMA, typically calculated as: MACD Line = 12 period EMA − 26 period EMA
Signal Line: This is a 9-period EMA of the MACD Line, which helps to identify buy or sell signals. When the MACD Line crosses above the Signal Line, it can be a bullish signal (suggesting a buy); when it crosses below, it can be a bearish signal (suggesting a sell).
Histogram: The histogram shows the difference between the MACD Line and the Signal Line, visually representing the momentum of the trend. Positive histogram values indicate increasing bullish momentum, while negative values indicate increasing bearish momentum.
This strategy uses MACD as a second short-term trend filter. When MACD line crossed over the signal line there is a high probability that uptrend has been started. Therefore MACD line above signal line is our additional short-term trend filter. In conjunction with RSI it decreases probability of following false trend change signals.
The Stochastic Indicator is a momentum oscillator that compares a security's closing price to its price range over a specific period. It's used to identify overbought and oversold conditions. The indicator ranges from 0 to 100, with readings above 80 indicating overbought conditions and readings below 20 indicating oversold conditions.
It consists of two lines:
%K: The main line, calculated using the formula (CurrentClose−LowestLow)/(HighestHigh−LowestLow)×100 . Highest and lowest price taken for 14 periods.
%D: A smoothed moving average of %K, often used as a signal line.
This strategy uses stochastic to define the overbought conditions. The logic here is the following: we want to avoid long trades in the overbought territory, because when indicator reaches it there is a high probability that the potential move is gonna be restricted.
The 200-period EMA is a widely recognized indicator for identifying the long-term trend direction. The strategy only trades in the direction of this primary trend to increase the probability of successful trades. For instance, when the price is above the 200 EMA, only long trades are considered, aligning with the overarching trend direction.
Therefore, strategy uses combination of RSI and MACD to increase the probability that price now is in short-term uptrend, Stochastic helps to avoid the trades in the overbought (>80) territory. To increase the probability of opening long trades in the direction of a main trend and avoid local bounces we use 200 period EMA.
ATR is used to adjust the strategy risk management to the current market volatility. If volatility is low, we don’t need the large stop loss to understand the there is a high probability that we made a mistake opening the trade. User can setup the settings ATR Stop Loss and ATR Trailing Profit Activation Level to realize his own risk to reward preferences, but the unique feature of a strategy is that after reaching trailing profit activation level strategy is trying to follow the trend until it is likely to be finished instead of using fixed risk management settings. It allows sometimes to be involved in the large movements.

Trailing Stop ProTrailing Stop Pro is a sophisticated TradingView indicator designed to enhance your trading strategy by dynamically managing trailing stops based on market volatility. This tool leverages the Average True Range (ATR) to adjust stop levels, providing traders with a robust mechanism to protect profits and minimize losses.
Key Features:
Dynamic Trailing Stops: Automatically adjusts stop levels using ATR, allowing for responsive and adaptive risk management.
Customizable Inputs: Tailor the indicator to your trading style with adjustable parameters such as ATR Length, ATR Multiplier, and Source Vector.
Visual Clarity: Distinct color settings for long and short stops, with adjustable line thickness and transparency, ensuring clear visualization on your charts.
Professional Grade: The "Pro" designation signifies advanced features suitable for both novice and experienced traders seeking reliable and efficient stop management.
How It Works:
To set up the indicator, begin by defining the Chrono Point, which specifies the exact time you want the trailing stop mechanism to activate. This allows for precise control over when your stops begin to trail. Next, set the Credit Unit as the initial entry price for your trade, serving as the baseline from which the trailing stops will adjust.
The indicator uses ATR-based adjustments to determine stop levels. Customize the sensitivity of the trailing stop by adjusting the ATR Length (default is 14) and ATR Multiplier (default is 0.5). A longer ATR length smooths out volatility, while a higher multiplier increases the distance of the stop from the price.
Select your Source Vector from "High/Low," "Close," or "Open" prices as the basis for stop calculation. This flexibility allows you to align the indicator with your preferred trading strategy. The indicator plots trailing stops directly on the chart, with color-coded lines indicating long (teal) and short (red) positions. You can adjust the line thickness and transparency for optimal visibility.
The Mission Status feature automatically detects whether the trade is long or short and adjusts the trailing stop accordingly. If the price hits the trailing stop, the trade is considered exited, and the indicator calculates the profit or loss percentage.
Benefits:
Risk Management: Protect your trades from adverse market movements while locking in profits as prices move favorably.
Automation: Reduce manual intervention with automatic stop adjustments, allowing you to focus on strategic decision-making.
User-Friendly Interface: Intuitive settings and clear visual cues make it easy to integrate into your existing trading workflow.
Conclusion:
Trailing Stop Pro is an essential tool for traders looking to enhance their risk management strategies with precision and ease. By automating the trailing stop process and providing clear visual feedback, this indicator empowers you to navigate the markets with confidence. Whether you're a seasoned trader or just starting, Trailing Stop Pro offers the functionality and flexibility needed to optimize your trading performance.
The Trailing Stop Pro indicator is a tool designed to assist traders in managing risk and optimizing their trading strategies. However, it should not be considered as financial advice or a guarantee of profitability. Trading involves significant risk, and it is possible to lose more than your initial investment. Users are encouraged to thoroughly test the indicator in a demo environment and consider their own financial situation and risk tolerance before using it in live trading. Past performance is not indicative of future results, and users should seek advice from a qualified financial advisor if needed.
MACD with 1D Stochastic Confirmation Reversal StrategyOverview
The MACD with 1D Stochastic Confirmation Reversal Strategy utilizes MACD indicator in conjunction with 1 day timeframe Stochastic indicators to obtain the high probability short-term trend reversal signals. The main idea is to wait until MACD line crosses up it’s signal line, at the same time Stochastic indicator on 1D time frame shall show the uptrend (will be discussed in methodology) and not to be in the oversold territory. Strategy works on time frames from 30 min to 4 hours and opens only long trades.
Unique Features
Dynamic stop-loss system: Instead of fixed stop-loss level strategy utilizes average true range (ATR) multiplied by user given number subtracted from the position entry price as a dynamic stop loss level.
Configurable Trading Periods: Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Higher time frame confirmation: Strategy utilizes 1D Stochastic to establish the major trend and confirm the local reversals with the higher probability.
Trailing take profit level: After reaching the trailing profit activation level scrip activate the trailing of long trade using EMA. More information in methodology.
Methodology
The strategy opens long trade when the following price met the conditions:
MACD line of MACD indicator shall cross over the signal line of MACD indicator.
1D time frame Stochastic’s K line shall be above the D line.
1D time frame Stochastic’s K line value shall be below 80 (not overbought)
When long trade is executed, strategy set the stop-loss level at the price ATR multiplied by user-given value below the entry price. This level is recalculated on every next candle close, adjusting to the current market volatility.
At the same time strategy set up the trailing stop validation level. When the price crosses the level equals entry price plus ATR multiplied by user-given value script starts to trail the price with EMA. If price closes below EMA long trade is closed. When the trailing starts, script prints the label “Trailing Activated”.
Strategy settings
In the inputs window user can setup the following strategy settings:
ATR Stop Loss (by default = 3.25, value multiplied by ATR to be subtracted from position entry price to setup stop loss)
ATR Trailing Profit Activation Level (by default = 4.25, value multiplied by ATR to be added to position entry price to setup trailing profit activation level)
Trailing EMA Length (by default = 20, period for EMA, when price reached trailing profit activation level EMA will stop out of position if price closes below it)
User can choose the optimal parameters during backtesting on certain price chart, in our example we use default settings.
Justification of Methodology
This strategy leverages 2 time frames analysis to have the high probability reversal setups on lower time frame in the direction of the 1D time frame trend. That’s why it’s recommended to use this strategy on 30 min – 4 hours time frames.
To have an approximation of 1D time frame trend strategy utilizes classical Stochastic indicator. The Stochastic Indicator is a momentum oscillator that compares a security's closing price to its price range over a specific period. It's used to identify overbought and oversold conditions. The indicator ranges from 0 to 100, with readings above 80 indicating overbought conditions and readings below 20 indicating oversold conditions.
It consists of two lines:
%K: The main line, calculated using the formula (CurrentClose−LowestLow)/(HighestHigh−LowestLow)×100 . Highest and lowest price taken for 14 periods.
%D: A smoothed moving average of %K, often used as a signal line.
Strategy logic assumes that on 1D time frame it’s uptrend in %K line is above the %D line. Moreover, we can consider long trade only in %K line is below 80. It means that in overbought state the long trade will not be opened due to higher probability of pullback or even major trend reversal. If these conditions are met we are going to our working (lower) time frame.
On the chosen time frame, we remind you that for correct work of this strategy you shall use 30min – 4h time frames, MACD line shall cross over it’s signal line. The MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) is a popular momentum and trend-following indicator used in technical analysis. It helps traders identify changes in the strength, direction, momentum, and duration of a trend in a stock's price.
The MACD consists of three components:
MACD Line: This is the difference between a short-term Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and a long-term EMA, typically calculated as: MACD Line=12-period EMA−26-period
Signal Line: This is a 9-period EMA of the MACD Line, which helps to identify buy or sell signals. When the MACD Line crosses above the Signal Line, it can be a bullish signal (suggesting a buy); when it crosses below, it can be a bearish signal (suggesting a sell).
Histogram: The histogram shows the difference between the MACD Line and the Signal Line, visually representing the momentum of the trend. Positive histogram values indicate increasing bullish momentum, while negative values indicate increasing bearish momentum.
In our script we are interested in only MACD and signal lines. When MACD line crosses signal line there is a high chance that short-term trend reversed to the upside. We use this strategy on 45 min time frame.
ATR is used to adjust the strategy risk management to the current market volatility. If volatility is low, we don’t need the large stop loss to understand the there is a high probability that we made a mistake opening the trade. User can setup the settings ATR Stop Loss and ATR Trailing Profit Activation Level to realize his own risk to reward preferences, but the unique feature of a strategy is that after reaching trailing profit activation level strategy is trying to follow the trend until it is likely to be finished instead of using fixed risk management settings. It allows sometimes to be involved in the large movements.

Quatro SMA Strategy [4h]Hello, I would like to present to you The "Quatro SMA" strategy
Strategy is based on four simple moving averages of different lengths and monitoring trading volume. The key idea is to identify strong market trends by comparing short-term moving averages with the long-term SMA. The strategy generates buy signals when all short-term SMAs are above the SMA(200) and the volume confirms the strength of the move. Similarly, sell signals are generated when all short-term SMAs are below the SMA(200), and the volume is sufficiently high.
The strategy manages risk by applying a stop loss and three different Take Profit levels (TP1, TP2, TP3), with varying percentages of the position closed at each level.
Each Take Profit level is triggered at a specific percentage gain, with the position being closed gradually depending on the achieved targets. The percentage of the position closed at each TP level is also defined by the user.
Indicators and Parameters:
Simple Moving Averages (SMA):
The script utilizes four simple moving averages with different lengths (4, 16, 32, 200). The first three SMAs (SMA1, SMA2, SMA3) are used to determine the trend direction, while the fourth SMA (with a length of 200) serves as a support/resistance line.
Volume:
The script monitors trading volume and checks if the current volume exceeds 2.5 times the average volume of the last 40 candles. High volume is considered as confirmation of trend strength.
Entry Conditions:
- Long Position: Triggered when SMA1 > SMA2 > SMA3, the closing price is above SMA(200), and the volume condition is met.
- Short Position: Triggered when SMA1 < SMA2 < SMA3, the closing price is below SMA(200), and the volume condition is met.
Exit Conditions:
- Long Position: Closed when SMA1 < SMA2 < SMA3 and the closing price is above SMA(200).
- Short Position: Closed when SMA1 > SMA2 > SMA3 and the closing price is below SMA(200).
to determine the level of stop loss and target point I used a piece of code by RafaelZioni, here is the script from which a piece of code was taken

Pure Price Action Liquidity Sweeps [LuxAlgo]The Pure Price Action Liquidity Sweeps indicator is a pure price action adaptation of our previously published and highly popular Liquidity-Sweeps script.
Similar to its earlier version, this indicator detects the presence of liquidity sweeps on the user's chart, while also identifying potential areas of support/resistance or entry when liquidity levels are taken. The key difference, however, is that this price action version relies solely on price patterns, eliminating the need for numerical swing length settings.
🔶 USAGE
A Liquidity Sweep occurs when the price breaks through a liquidity level , after which the price returns below/above the liquidity level , forming a wick.
The examples below show a bullish and bearish scenario of "a wick passing through a liquidity level where the price quickly comes back".
Short-term liquidity sweep detection is based on short-term swing levels. Some of these short-term levels, depending on further market developments, may evolve into intermediate-term levels and, in the long run, become long-term levels. Therefore, enabling short-term detection with the script means showing all levels, including minor and temporal ones. Depending on the trader's style, some of these levels may be considered noise. Enabling intermediate and long-term levels can help filter out this noise and provide more significant levels for trading decisions. For further details on how swing levels are identified please refer to the details section.
The Intermediate-term option selection for the same chart as above, filters out minor or noisy levels, providing clearer and more significant levels for traders to observe.
🔶 DETAILS
The swing points detection feature relies exclusively on price action, eliminating the need for numerical user-defined settings.
The first step involves detecting short-term swing points, where a short-term swing high (STH) is identified as a price peak surrounded by lower highs on both sides. Similarly, a short-term swing low is recognized as a price trough surrounded by higher lows on both sides.
Intermediate-term swing and long-term swing points are detected using the same approach but with a slight modification. Instead of directly analyzing price candles, we now utilize the previously detected short-term swing points. For intermediate-term swing points, we rely on short-term swing points, while for long-term swing points, we use the intermediate-term ones.
🔶 SETTINGS
Detection: Period options of the detected swing points.

VIX Futures Basis StrategyVIX Futures Basis Strategy
The VIX Futures Basis Strategy is a trading approach that takes advantage of the unique characteristics of the VIX index and its futures market. The VIX, often referred to as the "fear index," measures market expectations of near-term volatility. This strategy focuses on how the VIX futures contracts behave in relation to the spot VIX index and seeks to capitalize on the market's contango and backwardation phases.
Key Concepts:
VIX Index and VIX Futures:
The VIX index reflects the market's expectation of volatility over the next 30 days.
VIX futures allow traders to speculate on the future value of the VIX index.
Contango and Backwardation:
Contango occurs when the futures price is higher than the spot price, often indicating that the market expects volatility to rise in the future.
Backwardation is when the futures price is lower than the spot price, suggesting that the market expects a decrease in volatility.
Basis:
The basis is the difference between the futures price and the spot price. This strategy examines the basis for two consecutive VIX futures contracts.
Strategy Overview:
The VIX Futures Basis Strategy uses the relationship between the VIX index and its futures contracts to generate trading signals:
Long Position on Contango:
When both the front month and the second month VIX futures contracts are in contango (their prices are above the spot VIX index by a specified threshold), the strategy takes a long position.
This implies an expectation that the market will move from a state of expected higher future volatility to a more stable state, allowing profits to be made as the futures prices converge toward the spot price.
Closing Position on Backwardation:
If the basis for both futures contracts indicates backwardation (their prices are below the spot VIX index by a threshold), the strategy closes any long positions.
This condition suggests that the market anticipates decreasing volatility, and closing positions helps to avoid potential losses.

Market Structure Break Targets [UAlgo]The "Market Structure Break Targets " indicator is designed to identify and visualize key market structure points such as Market Structure Breaks (MSBs) and Break of Structures (BoS). These points are crucial for understanding market trends and potential reversal zones. By plotting these structures on the chart, traders can easily spot significant support and resistance levels, as well as potential entry and exit points.
This indicator uses a combination of swing highs and lows to determine market structures and calculates targets based on user-defined percentages or Average True Range (ATR) multipliers. It provides visual cues in the form of lines, labels, and boxes to help traders quickly interpret market conditions.
🔶 Key Features
Customizable Swing Length: Users can set the swing length to identify the pivot highs and lows, which are crucial for determining market structure.
Target Duration Bars: Defines the maximum duration (in bars) for which the targets will be considered valid.
Target Calculation Methods: The target levels are crucial for setting potential price objectives. The calculation can be based on a percentage move from the identified pivot or using the ATR to factor in market volatility. These targets help in setting realistic profit-taking levels or identifying stop-loss placements.
Bullish and Bearish Market Structure Break (MSB): Detects and highlights bullish and bearish market structure breaks with customizable colors and target percentages.
Bullish MSB
When the price closes above a significant pivot high, a bullish MSB is identified. The indicator will draw a line at this level and calculate a target based on the chosen method (percentage or ATR). The target is visualized with a dotted line, and a label "MSB" is displayed. Additionally, an order block is created at the level of the bullish MSB. This order block is highlighted with a semi-transparent box, representing a potential area where price might find support in the future.
Bearish MSB
Conversely, when the price closes below a significant pivot low, a bearish MSB is marked. Similar to bullish MSBs, targets are calculated and displayed on the chart. An order block is also generated at the level of the bearish MSB, visualized with a semi-transparent box. This box highlights a potential resistance area where price might face selling pressure.
Bullish and Bearish Break of Structure (BoS): Identifies break of structures for both bullish and bearish scenarios, providing additional target levels.
Bullish BoS
If the price continues to rise and breaks another significant level, a bullish BoS is detected. This break is also marked with lines and labels, providing additional target levels for traders. An order block is created at the BoS level, serving as a potential support zone.
Bearish BoS
If the price falls further after a bearish MSB, a bearish BoS is identified and visualized similarly. The indicator creates an order block at the BoS level, which acts as a potential resistance zone.

ICT Power Of Three | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new ICT Power Of Three Indicator! This indicator is built around the ICT's "Power Of Three" strategy. This strategy makes use of these 3 key smart money concepts : Accumulation, Manipulation and Distribution. Each step is explained in detail within this write-up. For more information about the process, check the "HOW DOES IT WORK" section.
Features of the new ICT Power Of Three Indicator :
Implementation of ICT's Power Of Three Strategy
Different Algorithm Modes
Customizable Execution Settings
Customizable Backtesting Dashboard
Alerts for Buy, Sell, TP & SL Signals
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The "Power Of Three" comes from these three keywords "Accumulation, Manipulation and Distribution". Here is a brief explanation of each keyword :
Accumulation -> Accumulation phase is when the smart money accumulate their positions in a fixed range. This phase indicates price stability, generally meaning that the price constantly switches between up & down trend between a low and a high pivot point. When the indicator detects an accumulation zone, the Power Of Three strategy begins.
Manipulation -> When the smart money needs to increase their position sizes, they need retail traders' positions for liquidity. So, they manipulate the market into the opposite direction of their intended direction. This will result in retail traders opening positions the way that the smart money intended them to do, creating liquidity. After this step, the real move that the smart money intended begins.
Distribution -> This is when the real intention of the smart money comes into action. With the new liquidity thanks to the manipulation phase, the smart money add their positions towards the opposite direction of the retail mindset. The purpose of this indicator is to detect the accumulation and manipulation phases, and help the trader move towards the same direction as the smart money for their trades.
Detection Methods Of The Indicator :
Accumulation -> The indicator detects accumulation zones as explained step-by-step :
1. Draw two lines from the lowest point and the highest point of the latest X bars.
2. If the (high line - low line) is lower than Average True Range (ATR) * accumulationConstant
3. After the condition is validated, an accumulation zone is detected. The accumulation zone will be invalidated and manipulation phase will begin when the range is broken.
Manipulation -> If the accumulation range is broken, check if the current bar closes / wicks above the (high line + ATR * manipulationConstant) or below the (low line - ATR * manipulationConstant). If the condition is met, the indicator detects a manipulation zone.
Distribution -> The purpose of this indicator is to try to foresee the distribution zone, so instead of a detection, after the manipulation zone is detected the indicator automatically create a "shadow" distribution zone towards the opposite direction of the freshly detected manipulation zone. This shadow distribution zone comes with a take-profit and stop-loss layout, customizable by the trader in the settings.
The X bars, accumulationConstant and manipulationConstant are subject to change with the "Algorithm Mode" setting. Read the "Settings" section for more information.
This indicator follows these steps and inform you step by step by plotting them in your chart.
🚩UNIQUENESS
This indicator is an all-in-one suite for the ICT's Power Of Three concept. It's capable of plotting the strategy, giving signals, a backtesting dashboard and alerts feature. Different and customizable algorithm modes will help the trader fine-tune the indicator for the asset they are currently trading. The backtesting dashboard allows you to see how your settings perform in the current ticker. You can also set up alerts to get informed when the strategy is executable for different tickers.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Algorithm Mode -> The indicator offers 3 different detection algorithm modes according to your needs. Here is the explanation of each mode.
a) Small Manipulation
This mode has the default bar length for the accumulation detection, but a lower manipulation constant, meaning that slighter imbalances in the price action can be detected as manipulation. This setting can be useful on tickers that have lower liquidity, thus can be manipulated easier.
b) Big Manipulation
This mode has the default bar length for the accumulation detection, but a higher manipulation constant, meaning that heavier imbalances on the price action are required in order to detect manipulation zones. This setting can be useful on tickers that have higher liquidity, thus can be manipulated harder.
c) Short Accumulation
This mode has a ~70% lower bar length requirement for accumulation zone detection, and the default manipulation constant. This setting can be useful on tickers that are highly volatile and do not enter accumulation phases too often.
Breakout Method -> If "Close" is selected, bar close price will be taken into calculation when Accumulation & Manipulation zone invalidation. If "Wick" is selected, a wick will be enough to validate the corresponding zone.
2. TP / SL
TP / SL Method -> If "Fixed" is selected, you can adjust the TP / SL ratios from the settings below. If "Dynamic" is selected, the TP / SL zones will be auto-determined by the algorithm.
Risk -> The risk you're willing to take if "Dynamic" TP / SL Method is selected. Higher risk usually means a better winrate at the cost of losing more if the strategy fails. This setting is has a crucial effect on the performance of the indicator, as different tickers may have different volatility so the indicator may have increased performance when this setting is correctly adjusted.
3. Visuals
Show Zones -> Enables / Disables rendering of Accumulation (yellow) and Manipulation (red) zones.

RSI Trail [UAlgo]The RSI Trail indicator is a technical analysis tool designed to assist traders in making informed decisions by utilizing the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and various moving average calculations. This indicator dynamically plots support and resistance levels based on RSI values, providing visual cues for potential bullish and bearish signals. The inclusion of a trailing stop mechanism allows traders to adapt to market volatility, ensuring optimal entry and exit points.
🔶 Key Features
Multiple Moving Average Types: Choose from Simple Moving Average (SMA), Exponential Moving Average (EMA), Weighted Moving Average (WMA), Running Moving Average (RMA), and McGinley Dynamic for diverse analytical approaches.
Configurable RSI Bounds: Tailor the RSI lower and upper bounds to your specific trading preferences, with default settings at 40 and 60.
Signals: The indicator determines bullish and bearish market states and plots corresponding signals on the chart.
Customizable Visualization: Options to display the midline and color candles based on market state enhance visual analysis.
Alerts: Integrated alert conditions notify you of bullish and bearish signals.
🔶 Calculations
The RSI Trail indicator calculates dynamic support and resistance levels using a combination of moving averages and the Relative Strength Index (RSI). It starts by computing a chosen moving average (SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA, or McGinley) over a period of 27 using the typical price (ohlc4).
The indicator then defines upper and lower bounds based on customizable RSI levels (default 40 and 60) and adjusts these bounds using the Average True Range (ATR) to account for market volatility. The upper bound is calculated by adding a volatility-adjusted value to the moving average, while the lower bound is found by subtracting this value. Bullish signals occur when the price crosses above the upper bound, and bearish signals when it falls below the lower bound.
The RSI Trail indicator also can be used to identify pullback opportunities. When the price high/low crosses above/below the calculated upper/lower bound, it indicates a potential pullback, suggesting a favorable point to enter a trade during a pullback.

[INVX] Post-Earnings Announcement DriftWhat does this strategy do?
This Pine Script strategy implements the Post-earnings announcement drift (PEAD) strategy, which is a financial market anomaly where a stock's price tends to drift in the direction of the firm's earnings surprise for an extended period of time.
Ref: en.wikipedia.org
An earnings announcement is an official public statement of a company's profitability for a specific time period, typically a quarter or a year. It includes various financial metrics but the most watched figure is the Earnings Per Share (EPS). Analysts estimate the EPS before the announcement, and the actual EPS is compared to this estimate to determine if there was an earnings surprise.
An earnings surprise occurs when the actual EPS is significantly different from the analysts' estimates. A positive earnings surprise indicates that the actual EPS is higher than the estimate, while a negative earnings surprise suggests the EPS is lower than anticipated.
The script takes the following inputs
" Holding periods (bar) " : This input defines the number of periods (or bars) the script will hold a position after the earnings announcement.
" Surprise threshold (%) ": This input sets the minimum percentage for an earnings surprise, which triggers the strategy to enter either a long or short position. In essence, it represents the minimum deviation between the estimated and actual Earnings Per Share (EPS) that will trigger a trade. A higher threshold may lead to fewer, potentially more significant trades, while a lower threshold might result in more frequent, possibly less impactful trades. This parameter allows you to adjust the sensitivity of the strategy to earnings surprises.
Positive earnings surprise
After the earnings announcement, the script compares the actual EPS with the estimated EPS to identify an earnings surprise. If there is a positive earnings surprise, the script will enter a long position. A long position is a bullish strategy where the investor expects the stock price to rise.
Negative earnings surprise
On the other hand, if there is a negative earnings surprise, the script will enter a short position. A short position is a bearish strategy where the investor expects the stock price to fall.
In both scenarios, the position (either long or short) is held for the number of periods specified in the "Holding periods (bar)" input. This strategy is based on the assumption that the stock price will continue to drift in the direction of the earnings surprise for the specified holding period.
Disclaimer: The script provided herein is for educational purposes only. It should not be considered as investment advice or a recommendation of any particular security, strategy or investment product. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
The results of the Pine Script backtesting are hypothetical and should not be considered as a true reflection of the results that might be achieved in a live trading environment. The backtest results are based on historical data and may not take into account certain factors such as actual transaction costs, taxes, or changes in market conditions.
Investors should consult with their financial advisor before making any investment decisions. All investments involve risk, including the potential loss of all invested capital.
Chande Kroll Trend Strategy (SPX, 1H) | PINEINDICATORSThe "Chande Kroll Stop Strategy" is designed to optimize trading on the SPX using a 1-hour timeframe. This strategy effectively combines the Chande Kroll Stop indicator with a Simple Moving Average (SMA) to create a robust method for identifying long entry and exit points. This detailed description will explain the components, rationale, and usage to ensure compliance with TradingView's guidelines and help traders understand the strategy's utility and application.
Objective
The primary goal of this strategy is to identify potential long trading opportunities in the SPX by leveraging volatility-adjusted stop levels and trend-following principles. It aims to capture upward price movements while managing risk through dynamically calculated stops.
Chande Kroll Stop Parameters:
Calculation Mode: Offers "Linear" and "Exponential" options for position size calculation. The default mode is "Exponential."
Risk Multiplier: An adjustable multiplier for risk management and position sizing, defaulting to 5.
ATR Period: Defines the period for calculating the Average True Range (ATR), with a default of 10.
ATR Multiplier: A multiplier applied to the ATR to set stop levels, defaulting to 3.
Stop Length: Period used to determine the highest high and lowest low for stop calculation, defaulting to 21.
SMA Length: Period for the Simple Moving Average, defaulting to 21.
Calculation Details:
ATR Calculation: ATR is calculated over the specified period to measure market volatility.
Chande Kroll Stop Calculation:
High Stop: The highest high over the stop length minus the ATR multiplied by the ATR multiplier.
Low Stop: The lowest low over the stop length plus the ATR multiplied by the ATR multiplier.
SMA Calculation: The 21-period SMA of the closing price is used as a trend filter.
Entry and Exit Conditions:
Long Entry: A long position is initiated when the closing price crosses over the low stop and is above the 21-period SMA. This condition ensures that the market is trending upward and that the entry is made in the direction of the prevailing trend.
Exit Long: The long position is exited when the closing price falls below the high stop, indicating potential downward movement and protecting against significant drawdowns.
Position Sizing:
The quantity of shares to trade is calculated based on the selected calculation mode (linear or exponential) and the risk multiplier. This ensures position size is adjusted dynamically based on current market conditions and user-defined risk tolerance.
Exponential Mode: Quantity is calculated using the formula: riskMultiplier / lowestClose * 1000 * strategy.equity / strategy.initial_capital.
Linear Mode: Quantity is calculated using the formula: riskMultiplier / lowestClose * 1000.
Execution:
When the long entry condition is met, the strategy triggers a buy signal, and a long position is entered with the calculated quantity. An alert is generated to notify the trader.
When the exit condition is met, the strategy closes the position and triggers a sell signal, accompanied by an alert.
Plotting:
Buy Signals: Indicated with an upward triangle below the bar.
Sell Signals: Indicated with a downward triangle above the bar.
Application
This strategy is particularly effective for trading the SPX on a 1-hour timeframe, capitalizing on price movements by adjusting stop levels dynamically based on market volatility and trend direction.
Default Setup
Initial Capital: $1,000
Risk Multiplier: 5
ATR Period: 10
ATR Multiplier: 3
Stop Length: 21
SMA Length: 21
Commission: 0.01
Slippage: 3 Ticks
Backtesting Results
Backtesting indicates that the "Chande Kroll Stop Strategy" performs optimally on the SPX when applied to the 1-hour timeframe. The strategy's dynamic adjustment of stop levels helps manage risk effectively while capturing significant upward price movements. Backtesting was conducted with a realistic initial capital of $1,000, and commissions and slippage were included to ensure the results are not misleading.
Risk Management
The strategy incorporates risk management through dynamically calculated stop levels based on the ATR and a user-defined risk multiplier. This approach ensures that position sizes are adjusted according to market volatility, helping to mitigate potential losses. Trades are sized to risk a sustainable amount of equity, adhering to the guideline of risking no more than 5-10% per trade.
Usage Notes
Customization: Users can adjust the ATR period, ATR multiplier, stop length, and SMA length to better suit their trading style and risk tolerance.
Alerts: The strategy includes alerts for buy and sell signals to keep traders informed of potential entry and exit points.
Pyramiding: Although possible, the strategy yields the best results without pyramiding.
Justification of Components
The Chande Kroll Stop indicator and the 21-period SMA are combined to provide a robust framework for identifying long trading opportunities in trending markets. Here is why they work well together:
Chande Kroll Stop Indicator: This indicator provides dynamic stop levels that adapt to market volatility, allowing traders to set logical stop-loss levels that account for current price movements. It is particularly useful in volatile markets where fixed stops can be easily hit by random price fluctuations. By using the ATR, the stop levels adjust based on recent market activity, ensuring they remain relevant in varying market conditions.
21-Period SMA: The 21-period SMA acts as a trend filter to ensure trades are taken in the direction of the prevailing market trend. By requiring the closing price to be above the SMA for long entries, the strategy aligns itself with the broader market trend, reducing the risk of entering trades against the overall market direction. This helps to avoid false signals and ensures that the trades are in line with the dominant market movement.
Combining these two components creates a balanced approach that captures trending price movements while protecting against significant drawdowns through adaptive stop levels. The Chande Kroll Stop ensures that the stops are placed at levels that reflect current volatility, while the SMA filter ensures that trades are only taken when the market is trending in the desired direction.
Concepts Underlying Calculations
ATR (Average True Range): Used to measure market volatility, which informs the stop levels.
SMA (Simple Moving Average): Used to filter trades, ensuring positions are taken in the direction of the trend.
Chande Kroll Stop: Combines high and low price levels with ATR to create dynamic stop levels that adapt to market conditions.

Trading involves substantial risk, and most day traders incur losses. The "Chande Kroll Stop Strategy" is provided for informational and educational purposes only. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Users are advised to adjust and personalize this trading strategy to better match their individual trading preferences and risk tolerance.
Omega RatioThe Omega Ratio Indicator is a powerful tool designed to measure the risk-adjusted performance of an asset. Unlike traditional measures like the Sharpe or Sortino Ratios, the Omega Ratio considers both the frequency and magnitude of returns above and below a specified target return, providing a more comprehensive view of an asset's performance. This makes it an ideal choice for traders and investors seeking to evaluate the probability of achieving a desired return relative to the risk taken.
Features:
Calculation Period Input: Allows users to specify the period over which the Omega Ratio is calculated, making it flexible and adaptable to various trading strategies and time frames.
Target Return Input: Users can set a specific target return, enabling a customized risk-return analysis based on individual investment goals.
Daily Returns Calculation: The indicator calculates daily returns, which are used to determine the cumulative returns above and below the target return.
Omega Ratio Calculation: By dividing the cumulative returns above the target return by the cumulative returns below it, the indicator provides a clear measure of the likelihood of achieving the target return.
Visual Plot: The Omega Ratio is plotted on the chart, with a reference line at 1, helping users quickly assess whether the asset's returns are favorable relative to the target.
How to Use:
Add the Indicator to Your Chart: Copy the script into the Pine Script editor on TradingView and add it to your chart.
Specify the Calculation Period: Adjust the Calculation Period input to match your desired time frame for the Omega Ratio calculation.
Set the Target Return: Input your desired target return to customize the risk-return analysis.
Interpret the Omega Ratio: An Omega Ratio greater than 1 indicates that the asset's returns are more likely to exceed the target return than to fall short, whereas a ratio less than 1 suggests the opposite.
ka66: FX Sessions High/LowThis indicator is specific to the 24-hour Forex Market. It provides 2 features:
Demarcating forex sessions with open and close lines. Note that looking at various sources online, we use the convention that the Asia session starts with the Tokyo market open, rather than the earlier Sydney session. Presumably this is better since we then have more liquidity in the market. Note that we have three sessions: Asia, London, New York.
At the end of each session, we begin plotting that (closed) session's high and low, which acts as a natural support and resistance for the Forex market. This is the key feature it provides. The first feature is mainly there for a visual guide, which can be turned off via the UI settings, but it certainly helps verifying the logic!
For more background, we are taking the idea of Previous Day High/Low (PDH/PDL), but adjusting it to a multi-session market like Forex. In essence, this is is a "Previous Session High/Low" indicator.
PDH/PDL works fine when you have a market with Regular Trading Hours, ignoring Extended Hours. However, in the Forex market, each session can have differing sentiments, e.g. we often see say London bringing prices up, and New York bringing them back down.
The break of session high/lows (or bouncing off them) can reflect where the potential direction price is going to take.
I also categorised this as a Sentiment indicator, because support and resistance areas where prices react do provide the sentiment of the market. They aren't just lines, they are prices of interest to major players.
Supply & Demand (MTF) | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Supply and Demand (MTF) Indicator! This new indicator renders Supply and Demand zones based on momentum candles. It can detect Supply and Demand zones across up to 3 diferent timeframes. It's capable of combining zones, retest & break labels and it's customizable with invalidation and style settings.
Features of the new Supply and Demand (MTF) Indicator:
Renders Supply and Demand Zones Across 3 Timeframes
Combination Of Overlapping Zones
Retest & Break Labels
Retest & Break Alerts
Enable / Disable Historic Zones
Visual Customizability
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Supply and Demand is a key concept in trading. It helps traders see the zones that market-makers buy & sell the asset in large amounts. It's detected by finding momentum candles (candles that have large bodies) in a row.
Momentum candles are defined to have a larger body than the average candle in the chart, and at least 4 of them in a row is required to draw a supply or demand zone. The zone is drawn from the high wick to low wick of two candles before the first momentum candle in the row.
Check this example :
These zones are usually where market makers trade the asset in larger amounts. Thus, they act as support & resistance zones by their nature. A retest of these zones can make the price bounce to the opposite direction, while a breakout usually means strong price action momentum is incoming in that direction. Supply zones indicate bearish momentum while demand zones indicate bullish momentum.
Check this example :
Here a Supply Zone (Bearish) forms. Then price comes back up to test the zone, and it fails to break. After the failed attemp, a stong bearish momentum takes the price back to a lower level. Then another test of the zone occurs and successfully breaks the zone this time. This breakout starts a bullish momentum that takes the price to a higher level.
🚩UNIQUENESS
This indicator provides Supply and Demand zones in your chart with pure simplicity. It supports up to 3 different timeframes as we believe supporting your trades with higher timeframes can improve your trading experience. It also gets rid of complexity by combining overlapping zones into a single zone, even if they are from different timeframes! You can also set-up alerts to get notified when a supply or demand zone is being retested, or is broken. Overall, this indicator is the ultimate kit for supply and demand zones.
⚙️SETTINGS

Papercuts Recency CandlesPapercuts Recency Candles
V0.8 by Joel Eckert @PapercutsTrading
***This is currently an experimental visual exploratory concept.***
*** Experimental tools should only be explored by fellow coders and experienced traders.***
DESCRIPTION:
As coders, how can we seamlessly transition between actual and smoothed price data sets as data ages?
This is a visual experiment to see if and how data can be smoothly transitioned from one value to another over a set number of candles. If we visualize a chart in 3 zones, a head, a body, and a tail we can start to understand how this could work. The head zone would represent the first data set of actual asset prices. The body zone would represent the transition period from the first to the to the second data set. Last, the tail zone would represent the second data set made of a Hull Moving Average of the asset.
CONCEPT:
It is conceived that data and position precision constantly shift as they decay or age, therefore making older price levels act more like price regions or zones vs exact price points. This is what I am calling Recency.
This indicator utilizes the concept of "Recency" to explore the possibility of a new style of candle. It aims to maintain accurately on recent prices action but loosen up accuracy on older price action. The very nature of this requires ALTERING HISTORICAL DATA within the body zone or transition candles to achieve the effect. It is similar to trying to merge a line chart type with a candle chart type.
This experiment of using recency for candles was to create candles that stay more accurate near current price but fade away into a simple line as they age out, resulting in a simplified view of the big picture which consists of older price action.
This experimental design theoretically will help you stay focused only on what is currently unfolding and to minimize distractions from older price nuances.
USAGE:
WHO:
This is not recommended for new traders or novices that are unfamiliar with standard tools. Standardized tools should always be used to get grounded and build a foundation.
Active traders who are familiar with trading comfortably should experiment with this to see if they find it interesting or usable.
Pine coders may find this concept interesting enough, and may adapt the idea to other elements of their own scripts if they find it interesting… I just ask they give credit where credit is due.
HOW:
The best way to visualize how this works is to do the following:
Load it on a chart.
Turn off Standard candles in Chart Setting of the current window. I actually just turn off the bodies and borders, and dim the old wicks as I like the way the old wicks look when left alone with these new candles.
Enable chart replay at a faster speed, like 3x, and play back the chart to watch the behavior of the candles.
You’ll be able to see how the head of the candle type preserves OHLC, and indicates direction but as the candle starts to age it progressively flowers into the HMA
While it plays back try adjusting settings to see how they affect behavior.
You can see the data average in real-time which often reveals how unstable actual price noise really is.
The head candle diagonals indicate the candle body direction.
SETTINGS:
Coloring: You can choose your own bullish or bearish colors to match your scheme.
Price Line: The price line is colored according to the trend and
Head Length: These candles are true to the source high and low. They remain slightly brighter than transition candles. We have a max of 50 to keep things responsive.
Time Decay Length: This is the amount of candles it takes to transition to the tail. Max is 300 to keep things responsive.
Decay Continuity: This forces transition candles to complete the HMA curve instead of creating gaps when conforming to it. The best way to visualize this feature is to run a 3x replay of an asset, and toggle the result on and off. On is preferred.
Tail HMA Length: This is the smoothing amount for the resulting HMA stepline that calculates every close, but has a delayed draw until after the transition candles. You can optionally turn off the delayed visibility to help with comprehension.
Tail HMA Weight: This is simply an option to make the tail thicker or thinner. This also adjusts the border on the head candles to help them stand out.
Show Side Bias Dots: Default true: Draws a dot when bias to one side changes to help keep you on the right side of trade. Side bias is simply the alignment of 3 moving averages in one direction.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
You'll have to turn off or dim the standard candles in your view "Chart Settings" to see this properly.
Be aware that since the candles are based on boxes and utilize the “recency concept”, which means their data decays and changes as it ages. This results in a cleaner chart overall, but exact highs and lows will be averaged out as the data decays, forming a Hull Moving Average stepline of your defined length once decay has finished.
SUMMARY OF HOW IT WORKS:
First it takes candle information and creates unique boxes that represent each candle based on the high and low. It utilizes boxes because standard candles once written, cannot be later altered or removed… which is a key element for this effect to work.
Next it creates a second box and line from open to close for the body of the Head candles. This indicates direction at a glance.
As candles age beyond the defined distance of the “Head” they enter the "Body" aka "Time Decay" zone. Here the accuracy of the high and low will be averaged down using an incremental factor of the HMA, defined by "Time Decay Length" amount of candles.
The resulting tail is an HMA of Tail HMA Length. This tail is always calculate at close, but is not drawn instantly. The draw is delayed so that there is not overlapping data, and this makes the effect look more elegant.
There are also two EMAs within the script that do nothing but help candle coloring and help provide a trade side bias. When both EMA's and the HMA align, a side bias is defined. Only when the side bias changes will a new dot is formed.
Head candles have been simplified from previous versions to be easier to read at a a glance.
Consolidation Score ScreenerIn trading, a consolidation range is like a timeout after a big move in the price of a stock or symbol.
It's when the market takes a breather, neither pushing the price up nor down too hard.
Visually, it looks like the price moving sideways on a chart , with highs and lows staying within a certain range.
so this indicator is created to help myself and you decide if its a ranging market and what's the score of that consolidation range
The score ranges between 0 and 10 , where 10 is the max consolidation score , meaning this stock or the symbol is at its highest peak of consolidation .
What would you see using this indicator ?
Symbols circles , inside these circles it will print the consolidation score ..
in the middle of the indicator it will show the range of all the 20 symbols scores .
so it will give you like overall ranging value for your 20 symbols
Settings :
TimeFrame : TimeFrame input to select which time frame you want your indicator to analysis
Range length : The Range that you would want your indicator to take into consideration when doing its analysis .
Features :
20 symbols analysis
Multi timeframe capability
Enjoy .
Reversal Pivot PointsThis indicator aims to identify price levels where price action has quickly reversed from. These "pivots" establish major levels where major liquidity is located. Unlike standard support and resistance levels, when price breaks below or above a pivot, these pivots disappear from the chart. Comes with various customization features built to fit all.
Features
Pivot Timeframe: Identify and plot pivots from one specific timeframe and see it from all lower timeframes
Pivot left/right bar limit: A feature aimed at preventing false pivots identification
Remove On Close (ROC): Feature to only remove pivots once price close under it
ROC Timeframe: The timeframe the script uses to determine if the candle closed under the level
Wait For Close: Will only remove the pivot after the current candle closes
Line Extension Type: The extension of the line. None - extends line to current time, left - only extends line to the left, right - only extends line to the right, both - extends line both directions
Line Offset: How much to offset (in bars) the line and label from the current candle
Line Type: The style of line when plotted. Solid (─), dotted (┈), dashed (╌), arrow left (←), arrow right (→), arrows both (↔)
Display Level: Whether to or not to display the price of the pivot
Display Perfect Level: Whether to or not to display levels where price perfectly rejected off of
Alerts: Creates an alert when a level has been crossed
How to trade
1. Pivots can be traded to or from. The stock market (market makers) will tend to "chase" liquidity in order to fill orders at better averages. This allows us retail traders to to participate alongside these moves to these pivots. Once price action hits a pivot, it can do two things: break the pivot and continue or bounce off it. We can participate alongside these bounces after confirmation of a reversal (doji, volume, etc). These bounce plays are high risk as it's generally 50-50, but the risk to reward is typically also very high, making them very valuable to take.
2. Typically, the market is a fluid environment and should be "natural," so perfect things (manmade and filled with liquidity) should not occur. With this knowledge, we can expect these perfect levels, "PDT/PDB," to break as they are not natural occurrence and have heavy liquidity on and above/below them. We can trade to these levels and expect them to break/sweep if price action comes near them again.
