(IK) Stoch-60-15This strategy uses 60 minute and 15 minute stochastic data to determine entry and exit; it only executes long trades. I've only used this on BTC/USD, but I imagine the concepts employed should hold for any ticker
The script builds a simple Stochastic indicator for the current timeframe, and it also plots a single stochastic line for a higher resolution time frame. I've found good results trading on 15 minutes with a 60 minute higher resolution.
We enter a trade if the higher resolution stochastic is in an uptrend, if the current resolution stochastic is in an uptrend, and if the current stochastic value is less than 50.
We exit a trade when the current stochastic value crosses below 80 or the trailing stop loss is hit.
Stop loss is calculated with the input value, Stop Loss Percent. This value represents the percent of capital you're willing to lose before exiting a trade. A stop loss percent of 0.050 means your trade will exit if it falls 5% from the highest high since entering a trade. You will have at least 95% of your original capital left. There is no option to change a trailing stop loss to a set stop loss (in order to keep the code as simple as possible), however, you can turn it off by setting Stop Loss Percent to 1.
I tried to keep the script itself lightweight and very easy to understand, so it's not very customizable in regards to input options. You can change stochastic data, as well as the trailing stop percentage. The script can be adjusted to other timeframes, however this requires a small change in the code (details in script comments). Changing just the "Higher Resolution" input will not produce expected results
My hope is that by keeping it lightweight and simple, it will be easier for you to adjust to your specific needs, or work into a larger strategy.

Flunki TWAP minus MTF TWAP Oscillator
Heys,
Herewith a another simple oscillator that show the difference in price between a selectable timeframe TWAP and another alternative selectable timeframe TWAP
This is shown as a histogram.
Use numeric TWAP values for minutes (30, 60 ,720 whatever) and D, 3D, W, M for higher values
There is also a global timeframe which will set the timeframe for a global alternate timeframe (instead of current chart resolution)
On top of that is a Moving Average of the histogram value, shown as a blue / red line with an option to highlight this MA crossing zero, and an option to colour bars to this line.
Simple idea : Code open
Enjoy !
Amazing Oscillator MTF MulticolorIngles
The amazing multitemporal oscillator, allows you to see in a single graph the Waves that move the market in different temporalities, that is, you will be able to see the market trend, the impulse movement, the forced movement, and the entry and exit points, as well as also how both collide with each other, to understand why the smaller waves succumb to the impulse of the larger waves.
Elliot already described them as such, in his legacy of the Elliot waves and their different sub-waves, just as Wycoff spoke of the theory of effort and result.

El oscilador asombroso multitemporal, permite ver en una sola grafica las Ondas que mueven el mercado en diferentes temporalidades, es decir, podrás ver la tendencia del mercado, el movimiento de impulso, el movimiento de fuerza y los puntos de entrada y salida, así como también como ambos chocan entre si, para entender porque las ondas mas pequeñas sucumben al impulso de las ondas de mayor tamaño.
Ya Elliot las describía como tal, en su legado de las ondas de Elliot y sus diferentes sub-ondas, al igual que Wycoff hablaba de la teoría de esfuerzo y resultado.

Stochastic MTF IICombines Stochastics, RSI and MACD Histogram to give a complete picture of the momentum.
The main two lines are stochastics from the higher time frame(current time frame* 4).
The red columns are stochastic of macd histogram.
The green histogram is the stochastic rsi of price.
The dots at 50 line is the correlation between price and macd+rsi combo.
h4hdwm (updated)I put most importand moving avarages for most importand time frames together. When you whatching a graph you are sometimes missing another time frime very importand moving avarage and there is a reaction on price. with this multi time frame multi ma indicator you can see all of them at once. it makes a little mass if you let all of them together. so you might close some of them.
Bigger time frames Moving Avarages has ticker lines and bigger steps.
HTF Highs Lows [JV]█ OVERVIEW
This script presents a label with an overview of higher timeframe highs and lows. This can be useful information as we all know that price likes to revisit previous highs and lows area, specially on the higher timeframe.
█ CONCEPTS
This information can be relevant and valuable for various reasons:
Finding horizontal Support and Resistance
Get a better view on Market Structure
Provide some information about Order Flow
TrendLines
...
█ FEATURES
Plots
This script provides the option to show information about 3 timeframes
Each timeframe can be separately shown or hidden
The Y position of the info label can be user defined, based on high or low of the chosen timeframe
The X offset of the info label can be adjusted to the user's liking and the chart resolution
The label color and text color can be user defined
The info label's size can be user defined
█ NOTES
Caveat
The timeframes must be chosen in order of size. Meaning that the highest timeframe should be on top. This is title as such on the info label, but I want to mention it again as it's something to pay attention to.
Repainting
The question that pops up all the time is: Does it repaint ?
I will quote PineCoders on this:
We're pretty sure Wilder was not asked very often if RSI repainted. Why? Because it wasn't in fashion—and largely unnecessary—to ask that sort of question in the 80's. Many traders back then used daily charts only, and indicator values were calculated at the day's close, so everybody knew what they were getting. Additionally, indicator values were calculated by generally reputable outfits or traders themselves, so data was pretty reliable. Today, almost anybody can write a simple indicator, and the programming languages used to write them are complex enough for some coders lacking the caution, know-how or ethics of the best professional coders, to get in over their heads and produce code that does not work the way they think it does.
Briefly: yes, it repaints and no it does not matter.
Simple because we are working with highs and lows on a higher timeframe. So if we get a new high or low within a certain time frame, we want this new high or low to be displayed and, for me, it's not relevant if this information appears when it happens or when the candle closes.
Questions & Suggestions
Questions, suggestions or even a word of thanks are always welcomed in the comments section. I usually answer within the same day.
█ THANKS
A word of thanks to, and I hope I am allowed to use hyperlinks here, LonesomeTheBlue for being an inspiration on coding style and his work on arrays in Pine Script and to lmatl for his support, words of advice and letting me borrow his brain now and then.
Comparison (Malaysia Index & Sector)This is just a simple tool for convenient to compare and showing a clear image of all sector and index in Malaysia. They are just in one indicator. From this indicator, you can predict momentum of each sector in Malaysia, which is currently in bull or bear trend.
STRUCTURE
In the setting, the first line with the option of the following index (Malaysia Index) :
1. FBMKLCI
2. FTSEMYX:FBMSCAP
3. FTSEMYX:FBMACE
4. FTSEMYX:FBM70
5. FTSEMYX:FBMT100
6. FTSEMYX:FBMFLG
7. FTSEMYX:FBMEMAS
8. FTSEMYX:FA40
9. FTSEMYX:FBMMSCS
10. FTSEMYX:FBMAPMYR
11. FTSEMYX:FBMMSCAP
The rest of lines is all of the following sector (Malaysia Sector):
1. Technology
2. Telecommunication
3. Health
4. Consumer Product
5. Industrial Product
6. Construction
7. Property
8. Plantation
9. Utilities
10. Transportation
11. Energy
12. REIT
13. Finance
The last line (Line 15) is provided for other stock/index which is not available in option to manually fill.
All sector and index price are smoothen by Moving Average (MA). The default moving average is Relative Moving Average (RMA) which is used in Relative Strength Index ( RSI ) Oscillator. But the range is different from RSI , it is from -100 to 100 instead of 0 to 100. In the end, result and interpretation are just the same as RSI . Green area indicates oversold area, while red area is overbought.
Other choice of Moving Averages are available to change.
The problem of putting all together is the script may take longer to process. It is just for convenient use.

Phoenix085-Studies-PerCentage Current Price ((fib-pivot-%))Misc Details :
Another Indicator and Totally my own concept...
If others have similar study already then Credit to them for coming up with this even before I did but this is just me fiddling with pinescript trying to paint my dream like a great man once said...
Background :
I am a strong believer of Market being Fractals and what best way to script it than Pivots.
So I just wanted to identify the Pivot High and Pivot Low of some period(in the script it is set to 500, please do play with it to get the best setting which captures atleast the major highs and lows of recent past)
I also think that Fibonacci levels are very crucial and so wanted to see how the market reacts at the Fibonacci ratios from Pivot High and Low.
Overview :
As said above the price at Pivot Low is considered as 0% on the graph and Value at Pivot High as the 100%.
Depending on the CMP, the thick white line is plotted...
The main thing of interest here is the Horizontal lines are Fib Levels and the market kinda reacts around those levels as the buyers and sellers have to come to equilibrium...
A price retracing from the 100% level just means Double Top = Sell(Probable) and a bounce from the 0% just means a double bottom = Buy(Probable)....
Also this indicator along with my other Public indicator() might give a better understanding of the price actions (I Hope)...
This is free to use and share with as many as you like...

Waindrops [Makit0]█ OVERALL
Plot waindrops (custom volume profiles) on user defined periods, for each period you get high and low, it slices each period in half to get independent vwap, volume profile and the volume traded per price at each half.
It works on intraday charts only, up to 720m (12H). It can plot balanced or unbalanced waindrops, and volume profiles up to 24H sessions.
As example you can setup unbalanced periods to get independent volume profiles for the overnight and cash sessions on the futures market, or 24H periods to get the full session volume profile of EURUSD
The purpose of this indicator is twofold:
1 — from a Chartist point of view, to have an indicator which displays the volume in a more readable way
2 — from a Pine Coder point of view, to have an example of use for two very powerful tools on Pine Script:
• the recently updated drawing limit to 500 (from 50)
• the recently ability to use drawings arrays (lines and labels)
If you are new to Pine Script and you are learning how to code, I hope you read all the code and comments on this indicator, all is designed for you,
the variables and functions names, the sometimes too big explanations, the overall structure of the code, all is intended as an example on how to code
in Pine Script a specific indicator from a very good specification in form of white paper
If you wanna learn Pine Script form scratch just start HERE
In case you have any kind of problem with Pine Script please use some of the awesome resources at our disposal: USRMAN , REFMAN , AWESOMENESS , MAGIC
█ FEATURES
Waindrops are a different way of seeing the volume and price plotted in a chart, its a volume profile indicator where you can see the volume of each price level
plotted as a vertical histogram for each half of a custom period. By default the period is 60 so it plots an independent volume profile each 30m
You can think of each waindrop as an user defined candlestick or bar with four key values:
• high of the period
• low of the period
• left vwap (volume weighted average price of the first half period)
• right vwap (volume weighted average price of the second half period)
The waindrop can have 3 different colors (configurable by the user):
• GREEN: when the right vwap is higher than the left vwap (bullish sentiment )
• RED: when the right vwap is lower than the left vwap (bearish sentiment )
• BLUE: when the right vwap is equal than the left vwap ( neutral sentiment )
KEY FEATURES
• Help menu
• Custom periods
• Central bars
• Left/Right VWAPs
• Custom central bars and vwaps: color and pixels
• Highly configurable volume histogram: execution window, ticks, pixels, color, update frequency and fine tuning the neutral meaning
• Volume labels with custom size and color
• Tracking price dot to be able to see the current price when you hide your default candlesticks or bars
█ SETTINGS
Click here or set any impar period to see the HELP INFO : show the HELP INFO, if it is activated the indicator will not plot

█ LIMITS
This indicator only works on intraday charts (minutes only) up to 12H (720m), the lower chart timeframe you can use is 1m
This indicator needs price, time and volume to work, it will not work on an index (there is no volume), the execution will not be allowed
The histogram (volume profile) can be plotted on 24H sessions as limit but you can plot several 24H sessions
█ ERRORS AND PERFORMANCE
Depending on the choosed settings, the script performance will be highly affected and it will experience errors
Two of the more common errors it can throw are:
• Calculation takes too long to execute
• Loop takes too long
The indicator performance is highly related to the underlying volatility (tick wise), the script takes each candlestick or bar and for each tick in it stores the price and volume, if the ticker in your chart has thousands and thousands of ticks per bar the indicator will throw an error for sure, it can not calculate in time such amount of ticks.
What all of that means? Simply put, this will throw error on the BITCOIN pair BTCUSD (high volatility with tick size 0.01) because it has too many ticks per bar, but lucky you it will work just fine on the futures contract BTC1! (tick size 5) because it has a lot less ticks per bar
There are some options you can fine tune to boost the script performance, the more demanding option in terms of resources consumption is Updates per period , by default is maxed out so lowering this setting will improve the performance in a high way.
If you wanna know more about how to improve the script performance, read the HELP INFO accessible from the settings panel
█ HOW-TO SETUP
The basic parameters to adjust are Period size , Ticks per bar and Pixels per bar
• Period size is the main setting, defines the waindrop size, to get a better looking histogram set bigger period and smaller chart timeframe
• Ticks per bar is the tricky one, adjust it differently for each underlying (ticker) volatility wise, for some you will need a low value, for others a high one.
To get a more accurate histogram set it as lower as you can (min value is 1)
• Pixels per bar allows you to adjust the width of each histogram bar, with it you can adjust the blank space between them or allow overlaping
You must play with these three parameters until you obtain the desired histogram: smoother, sharper, etc...
These are some of the different kind of charts you can setup thru the settings:
• Balanced Waindrops (default): charts with waindrops where the two halfs are of same size.
This is the default chart, just select a period (30m, 60m, 120m, 240m, pick your poison), adjust the histogram ticks and pixels and watch
• Unbalanced Waindrops: chart with waindrops where the two halfs are of different sizes.
Do you trade futures and want to plot a waindrop with the first half for the overnight session and the second half for the cash session? you got it;
just adjust the period to 1860 for any CME ticker (like ES1! for example) adjust the histogram ticks and pixels and watch
• Full Session Volume Profile: chart with waindrops where only the first half plots.
Do you use Volume profile to analize the market? Lucky you, now you can trick this one to plot it, just try a period of 780 on SPY, 2760 on ES1!, or 2880 on EURUSD
remember to adjust the histogram ticks and pixels for each underlying
• Only Bars: charts with only central and vwap bars plotted, simply deactivate the histogram and volume labels
• Only Histogram: charts with only the histogram plotted (volume profile charts), simply deactivate the bars and volume labels
• Only Volume: charts with only the raw volume numbers plotted, simply deactivate the bars and histogram
If you wanna know more about custom full session periods for different asset classes, read the HELP INFO accessible from the settings panel
EXAMPLES
Full Session Volume Profile on MES 5m chart:
Full Session Unbalanced Waindrop on MNQ 2m chart (left side Overnight session, right side Cash Session):
The following examples will have the exact same charts but on four different tickers representing a futures contract, a forex pair, an etf and a stock.
We are doing this to be able to see the different parameters we need for plotting the same kind of chart on different assets
The chart composition is as follows:
• Left side: Volume Labels chart (period 10)
• Upper Right side: Waindrops (period 60)
• Lower Right side: Full Session Volume Profile
The first example will specify the main parameters, the rest of the charts will have only the differences
MES :
• Left: Period size: 10, Bars: uncheck, Histogram: uncheck, Execution window: 1, Ticks per bar: 2, Updates per period: EACH BAR,
Pixels per bar: 4, Volume labels: check, Track price: check
• Upper Right: Period size: 60, Bars: check, Bars color mode: HISTOGRAM, Histogram: check, Execution window: 2, Ticks per bar: 2,
Updates per period: EACH BAR, Pixels per bar: 4, Volume labels: uncheck, Track price: check
• Lower Right: Period size: 2760, Bars: uncheck, Histogram: check, Execution window: 1, Ticks per bar: 1, Updates per period: EACH BAR,

Stochastic with Outlier Labels/MTFTL;DR This indicator is an update to a simple stochastic ('Stoch_MTF' by binarytrader666) that provides a novel outlier highlighting feature
Improvements on stochastic:
1. Novel outlier highlighting that points out crosses that are the Nth consecutive cross or greater.
2. Allowing for multiple timeframes to be shown on the same chart
3. Highlighting/Labelling crosses and providing labels for alerts
A cross of the stochastics in the high or low zones establishes a trend. Successive crosses in the same region seem to indicate a continuation of that trend. The outlier functionality here provides a signal for when X number of crosses have been in the same trend, signaling further strength of that signal.
I also provided the necessary code for converting this to a strategy if you so wish at the bottom.
Phoenix085-Strategies==>MTF - Average True Range + MovAvgFIRSTLY, Here are a few who have influenced my pinescripting immensely recently:
@JustUncleL
@BigBitsIO
@TheArtofTrading
@QuantNomad
@SquigglesNiggles and many many many more.
Overview:
> This indicator is a simple crossover of Moving Averages.
> In addition I am using ATR rising as an indication for Trending Price.
> The entry is made once the smaller moving average crosses the bigger moving average, and also the Closes above the Smaller moving average.
> but the only twist here is,
- the ATR source is One timeframe Higher(In this case same as the session).whereas the source for the Moving averages is one Timeframe Lower.
>i.e., if the Session is 1D, the Indicator checks if the ATR is rising in the DAILY TIMEFRAME,
*_* the trade entry is made once the MOVING AVERAGE crossover happens on ONE TIME FRAME lower, as per example, ATR --> 1D = MA -->4H.
> Moving Average ->
- Thick -> Bigger MA,
- Thin and Transparent -> Smaller MA,
> Also, the Color of the Thicker MOVING AVERAGE Changes as Below:
- When LongCondition is satisfied --> Color=Lime
- When ShortCondition is satisfied --> Color=Red
- When neither condition is satisfied --> Color=Gray
NOTE:
1) There is a limitation in using the Securities function for FREE USERS --> Only 500 bars are allowed. So to use the indicators with more data, you need an upgraded TV account.
2) Strategy still needs Fine tuning, but for now, use the Thicker moving average color LIME FOR LONG ENTRIES and RED FOR SHORT ENTRIES.
This is Free for Use and share
RSI - MTF - Non RepaintUsing rsi with security function directly will cause repaint. Hence, doing it based on close price and calculating rsi via formula to avoid that. Hope this solves repainting issue.
Thanks to @Jittra for requesting this :)
Heiken Ashi MTF Strategy- IndicatorHello, this is both a strategy and indicator that revolves around Heikin Ashi candles.
In this case we take 3 different time frames, in this example we use daily , weekly and monthly.
The conditions for entry are :
For long : we check that we have a green daily candle, at the same time we check that the weekly and monthly candles are also green.
For short : We check that all candles, daily, weekly and monthly and red.
For exit of long : as soon as 1 of the 3 candles, daily or weekly or monthly converts to red, we exit.
For exit of short : as soon as 1 of the 3 candles converts to green, we exit.
This strategy- indicator can be adapted to any type of market.
Profit MAX MTF HeatMapThis is a powerfull strategy which is made from combining 3 multi timeframes into one for profit max indicator
In this case we have daily, weekly and montly.
Our long conditions are the next ones :
if we have an uptrend on all 3 at the same time, we go long.
If we have a downtrend on all 3 of them at the same time we go short.
For exit, for long, as soon as one of the 3 converts into downtrend we exit the trade.
For exit, for short, as soon as one of the 3 converts into uptrend we exit the trade.
This tool can be used on all types of markets, and can also be changed the time frames.

Triple RSIThis idea behind this indicator was to show an un cluttered view of the RSI on 3 different timeframes. The RSI for the current chart highlights Lime/Red when it crosses the Overbought and Oversold levels, which are editable in the Inputs tab. RSI 2 defaults to the 1h timeframe and prints a lime dot at the top of the indicator when it's above the 50 level and a Red Dot at the bottom of the indicator when it's below the 50 level. It can also be viewed as a plot line that changes color when it's above or below the 50 level. RSI 3 defaults to the 4h timeframe and prints a blue square at the top of the indicator when it's above the 50 level and an orange square at the bottom of the indicator when it's below the 50 level. It also can be viewed as a plot line that changes color when it's above or below the 50 level.
I've added the indicator multiple times to show a few of the different viewing options, with the default settings at the very bottom.
Multi MA MTF SandBox StrategyA moving averages SandBox strategy where you can experiment using two different moving averages (like KAMA, ALMA, HMA, JMA, VAMA and more) on different time frames to generate BUY and SELL signals, when they cross.
Great sandbox for experimenting with different moving averages and different time frames.
== How to use ==
We select two types of moving averages on two different time frames (or the same time frame):
First is the FAST moving average that should be at the same time frame or higher.
Second is the SLOW moving average that should be on the same time frame or higher.
== Buy and Sell Signals ==
When FAST moving average cross over the SLOW moving average we have a BUY signal (for LONG)
When FAST moving average cross under the SLOW moving average we have a SELL signal (for SHORT)
WARNING: Using a lower time frame than your chart time frame will result in unrealistic results in your backtesting and bar replay.
== NOTES ==
You can select BOTH, LONG, SHORT or NONE in the strategy settings.
You can also enable Stop Loss and Take Profit.
More sandboxes to come, Follow to get notified.
Like if you like and Enjoy!
Can also act as indicator by setting 'What trades should be taken' to 'NONE':
Previous High/Low MTFIndicator to plot higher time frame previous candle highs and lows.
One of the key factor in understanding the trend is to look at higher time-frames chart.
Parameters are explained below:
resolution : Chose resolution of higher timeframe. If set to same as symbol, it will consider next parameter HTFMultiplier for calculation of higher timeframe
HTFMultiplier : Multiply symbol timeframe to by HTFMultiplier to derive higher time-frame
Offset : Number of higher timeframe candles before to be plotted. 1 means - it will show highs/lows of previous higher timeframe candle.
daily candleseasy simple script for using daily non repainted daily candles on lower TF (4 hour or lower)
the color change (bullish=blue) , bearish =orange is made by special indicator that calculate the change of daily no security MTF to current close
so I just put this as template if someone want to use it as helper
the daily candles use security in non repainted mode that suggested by TV coders
so feel free to change this indicator as you wish :)
Joseph Nemeth Heiken Ashi Renko MTF StrategyFor Educational Purposes. Results can differ on different markets and can fail at any time. Profit is not guaranteed. This only works in a few markets and in certain situations. Changing the settings can give better or worse results for other markets.
Nemeth is a forex trader that came up with a multi-time frame heiken ashi based strategy that he showed to an older audience crowd on a speaking event video. He seems to boast about his strategy having high success results and makes an astonishing claim that looking at heiken ashi bars instead of regular candlestick bar charts can show the direction of the trend better and simpler than many other slower non-price based indicators. He says pretty much every indicator is about the same and the most important indicator is price itself. He is pessimistic about the markets and seems to think it is rigged and there is a sort of cabal that created rules to favor themselves, such as the inability of traders to hedge in one broker account, and that to win you have to take advantage of the statistics involved in the game. He believes fundamentals, chart patterns such as cup and handle and head and shoulders, and fibonacci numbers don't matter, only price matters. The foundation of his trading strategy is based around heiken ashi bars because they show a statistical pattern that can supposedly be taken advantage of by them repeating around seventy or so percent of the time, and then combines this idea with others based on the lower time frames involved.
The first step he uses is to identify the trend direction in the higher time frame(daily or 4 hourly) using the color of the heiken ashi bar itself. If it is green then take only long position after the bar completes, if it is red then take only short position. Next, on a lower time frame(1 hour or 30 minutes) look for the slope of the 20 exponential moving average to be sloping upward if going long or the slope of the ema to be sloping downward if going short(the price being above the moving average can work too if it's too hard to visualize the slope). Then look for the last heiken ashi bar, similarly to the first step, if it is green take long position, if it is red take short position. Finally the entry indicator itself will decide the entry on the lowest time frame. Nemeth recommends using MACD or CCI or possibly combine the two indicators on a 5 min or 15 min or so time frame if one does not have access to renko or range bars. If renko bars are available, then he recommends a 5 or 10 tick bar for the size(although I'm not sure if it's really possible to remove the time frame from renko bars or if 5 or 10 ticks is universal enough for everything). The idea is that renko bars paint a bar when there is price movement and it's important to have movement in the market, plus it's a simple indicator to use visually. The exit strategy is when the renko or the lowest time frame indicator used gives off an exit signal or if the above conditions of the higher time frames are not being met(he was a bit vague on this). Enter trades with only one-fifth of your capital because the other fifths will be used in case the trades go against you by applying a hedging technique he calls "zero zone recovery". He is somewhat vague about the full workings(perhaps because he uses his own software to automate his strategy) but the idea is that the second fifth will be used to hedge a trade that isn't going well after following the above, and the other fifths will be used to enter on another entry condition or if the other hedges fail also. Supposedly this helps the trader always come out with a profit in a sort of bushido-like trading tactic of never accepting defeat. Some critics argue that this is simply a ploy by software automation to boost their trade wins or to sell their product. The other argument against this strategy is that trading while the heiken ashi bar has not completed yet can jack up the backtest results, but when it comes to trading in real time, the strategy can end up repainting, so who knows if Nemeth isn't involving repainting or not, however he does mention the trades are upon completion of the bar(it came from an audience member's question). Lastly, the 3 time frames in ascending or descending fashion seem to be spaced out by about factors of 4 if you want to trade other time frames other than 5/15min,30min/1hour, or 4hour/daily(he mentioned the higher time frame should be atleast a dozen times higher than the lower time frame).
Personally I have not had luck getting the seventy+ percent accuracy that he talks about, whether in forex or other things. I made the default on renko bars to an ATR size 1 setting because it looks like the most universal option if the traditional mode box size is too hard to guess, and I made it so that you can switch between ATR and Traditional mode just in case. I don't think the strategy repaints because I think TV set a default on the multi-time frame aspects of their code to not re-paint, but I could be wrong so you might want to watch out for that. The zero zone recovery technique is included in the code but I commented it out and/or remove it because TV does not let you apply hedging properly, as far as I know. If you do use a proper hedging strategy with this, you'll find a very interesting bushido type of trading style involved with the Japanese bars that can boost profits and win rates of around possibly atleast seventy percent on every trade but unfortunately I was not able to test this part out properly because of the limitation on hedging here, and who knows if the hedging part isn't just a plot to sell his product. If his strategy does involve the repainting feature of the heiken ashi bars then it's possible he might have been preaching fools-gold but it's hard to say because he did mention it is upon completion of the bars. If you find out if this strategy works or doesn't work or find out a good setting that I somehow didn't catch, please feel free to let me know, will gladly appreciate it.
