Orion:SagittaSagitta
Sagitta is an indicator the works to assist in the validation of potential long entries and to place stop-loss orders. Sagitta is not a "golden indicator" but more of a confirmation indicator of what prices might be suggesting.
The concept is that while stocks can turn in one bar, it usually takes two bars or more to signal a turn. So, using a measurement of two bars help determine the potential turning of prices.
Behind the scenes, Sagitta is nothing more than a 2 period stochastic which has had its values divided into five specific zones.
Dividing the range of the two bars in five sections, the High is equal to 100 and the Low is equal to 0.
The zones are:
20 = bearish (red) – This is when the close is the lower 20% of the two bars
40 = bearish (orange) – This is when the close is between the lower 20% and 40% of the two bars.
60 = neutral (yellow) – This is when the close is between the middle 40% - 60% of the two bars.
80 = bullish (blue) – This is when the close is between the upper 60% - 80% of the two bars.
100 = bullish (green) – This is when the close is above the upper 80% of the bar.
The general confirmation concept works as such:
When the following bar is of a higher value than the previous bar, there is potential for further upward price movement. Conversely when the following bar is lower than the previous bar, there is potential for further downward movement.
Going from a red bar to orange bar Might be an indication of a positive turn in direction of prices.
Going from a green bar to an orange bar would also be considered a negative directional turn of prices.
When the follow on bar decreases (ie, green to blue, blue to yellow, etc) placing a stop-loss would be prudent.
Maroon lines in the middle of a bar is an indication that prices are currently caught in consolidation.
Silver/Gray bars indicate that a high potential exists for a strong upward turn in prices exists.
Consolidation is calculated by determining if the close of one bar is between the high and low of another bar. This then establishes the range high and low. As long as closes continue with this range, the high and low of the range can expand. When the close is outside of the range, the consolidation is reset.
Signals in areas of consolidation (maroon center bar) should be looked upon as if the prices are going to challenge the high of the consolidation range and not necessarily break through.
The entry technique used is:
The greater of the following two calculations:
High of signal bar * 1.002 or High of signal bar + .03
The stop-loss technique used is:
The lesser of the following two calculations:
Low of signal bar * .998 or Low of signal bar - .03
IF an entry signal is generated and the price doesn’t reach the entry calculation. It is considered a failed entry and is not considered a negative or that you missed out on something. This has saved you from losing money since the prices are not ready to commit to the direction.
When placing a stop-loss, it is never suggested that you lower the value of a stop-loss. Always move your stop-losses higher in order to lock in profit in case of a negative turn.
Stochastic Oscillator
DSS Bressert Stochastic MTFDouble Smoothed Stochastics – DSS Bressert is an oscillator introduced by William Blau and Walter Bressert shortly after each other in two slightly different versions. The calculation of DSS Bressert values is similar to the stochastic indicator. The difference is the use of double exponential smoothing. The advantages over the classic stochastic oscillators are the fast response to price changes in a still very smooth pattern. In addition, the extreme zones at the other end of the scale are reached quite frequently, even in strong trends, resulting in many trend conforming signals. Double Smoothed Stochastics – DSS The Bressert values are the same as the stochastics – values above 80 indicate an overbought condition of the market, values below 20 indicate an oversold condition of the market.
This is a full implementation of the original Stochastic Calulation with Multi-Time-Frame options. Other available scrips are lagging here and messing MTF up...
This Scrip will plot 2 lines for the double smoothed Stochastic based on the original exponential calculation from Blau/Bressert. Whilst the original stochastic is only simple moving average.
If you are a daytrader or scalper, the script is able to show a slow line and a fast line pair. Preferred Settings are embedded as screenshot.
Stochastic EMA, SMA, VWMA + DivergenceEvery MetaTrader User knows the function to switch the stochastic calculation from simple to exponential.
So i took the original Stochastic code from TV and enhanced it for the SMA, EMA, and VWMA smoothing. If you are using a longer K Smoothing interval you will recognize a notable difference between SMA and EMA.
Standard Stochastic Calculation that is well kown
Option to switch smoothing calculation
Choice between Simple Moving Average, Exponential Moving Average, Volume Weighted Moving Average
If you have more wishes regarding the smoothing, just leave a comment i can add a lot more...
On my to-do list is also the divergence lines known from the "divergence indicator" (RSI).
I hope this helps to get better entries ;-)
Have fun!
LeafAlgo Premium Macro StrategiesA "macro score", as defined here, is created by giving various weights to different signals and adding them together to get one smooth score. Positive or negative values are assigned to each of the signals depending on if the statement is true or false (e.g. DPO > 0: +1, DPO < 0: -1). This manner of strategy allows for a subset of the available signals to be present at one time as opposed to every technical signal having to be active in order for a long/short signal to trigger.
This strategy contains SIX different macro score strategies -- "Base DFMA", "Base DFMG", "Ichimoku", "TSI", "Donchian DFMA", and "Donchian DFMG". These strategies have the signals and weights pre-determined in the code. The "Base DFMA" strategy is based on our Democratic Fibonacci Moving Average (DFMA) indicator; the "Donchian DFMA" is the same as the base DFMA strategy, but with a signal from our Donchian Cloud Score indicator as added confluence. The "Base DFMG" strategy is based on our Democratic Fibonacci McGinley Dynamics (DFMG) indicator; the "Donchian DFMG" is the same, but with the Donchian Cloud Score as added confluence. The "Ichimoku" strategy is based on the major sub-indicators found within an Ichimoku Cloud in addition to our Donchian Cloud Score. The "TSI" strategy is based on the True Strength Index.
The ability to select your strategy of choice can be found at the top of the strategy settings under "Strategy Options", then in the drop-down menu labeled "Strategy Choice".
The DFMA - Democratic Fibonacci Moving Average - is a separate indicator that we have released that takes 10 different Fibonacci MAs (lengths of 3 to 233, at Fibonacci intervals) and averages them to form the DFMA line. This helps by creating a consensus on the trend based on moving averages alone. Crossovers of the DFMA with the various Fib MA lengths as well as a cross of the price source and these lines can provide adequate long and short signals. In the two DFMA strategies, the heaviest weights have been given to crosses of the DFMA line/Fib MA (233) as well as the crosses of the Fib MA (3)/DFMA. Additionally, there are thresholds for DPO ( Detrended Price Oscillator , above or below 0), CMO ( Chande Momentum Oscillator , above or below 0), Jurik Volatility Bands (above or below 0), and Stoch RSI (above or below 50). These four signals hold a lighter weight than the MA cross signals. The macro score itself ranges between -10 and 10. In addition to the macro score line, a momentum line (sourced by the macro score itself) has been included. A crossover/crossunder of the macro score and the macro momentum line is included into the long/short signal syntax in addition to a threshold for the macro score.
The DFMG - Democratic Fibonacci McGinley Dynamics - is a separate indicator that we have released that takes 10 different Fibonacci McGinley Dynamic liness (lengths of 3 to 233, at Fibonacci intervals) and averages them to form the DFMG line. This helps by creating a consensus on the trend based on moving averages alone. Crossovers of the DFMG with the various Fib MG lengths as well as a cross of the price source and these lines can provide adequate long and short signals. This strategy has the signals and weights pre-determined in the code. Heaviest weights have been given to crosses of the DFMG line/ McGinley (233) as well as the crosses of the McGinley (3)/DFMG. Additionally, there are thresholds for DPO ( Detrended Price Oscillator , above or below 0), CMO ( Chande Momentum Oscillator , above or below 0), Jurik Volatility Bands (above or below 0), and Stoch RSI (above or below 50). These four signals hold a lighter weight than the McGinley cross signals. The macro score itself ranges between -10 and 10. In addition to the macro score line, a momentum line (sourced by the macro score itself) has been included. A crossover/crossunder of the macro score and the macro momentum line is included into the long/short signal syntax in addition to a threshold for the macro score.
For the Ichimoku macro score, five signals were considered and weighted equally:
- Kijun-sen < Ichimoku Source
- Tenkan-sen < Ichimoku Source
- Kijun-sen > Chikou-span
- Tenkan-sen > Kijun-sen
- Senkou Span A > Senkou Span B
In addition to these factors, the Ichimoku strategy utilizes the Donchian Cloud Score in the long and short entry signals. Thus, the Donchian Cloud settings are applicable to this strategy.
For the True Strength Index strategy, the heaviest weights have been given to various TSI signals, including a crossover/crossunder of TSI signal and TSI value, a threshold for the TSI Signal (above or below 0), and a crossover/crossunder of the CMO ( Chande Momentum Oscillator ) and the TSI signal line. Additionally, there are thresholds for DPO ( Detrended Price Oscillator , above or below 0), Jurik Volatility Bands (above or below 0), and Stoch RSI (above or below 50). These three signals hold a lighter weight than the three TSI signals. The macro score itself ranges between -10 and 10. In addition to the macro score line, a momentum line (sourced by the macro score itself) has been included. A crossover/crossunder of the macro score and the macro momentum line is included into the long/short signal syntax in addition to a threshold for the macro score.
The Donchian Cloud Score is derived from a set of 5 Donchian channels (upper, lower, and basis plotted) defaulted to lengths of 25, 50, 100, 150, and 200. A set of conditions associated with the channels aims to determine ranging versus trending markets. Weights are given to these conditions accordingly, then tallied up to determine the "cloud score", ranging between -25 and 25. In general, a ranging market is determined by a cloud score between -10 and 10, while a positive trending market has a score higher than 10 and a negative trending market has a score lower than -10. That said, long and short thresholds similar to the macro score itself are included in the user settings and set to a default of 5 or -5. The cloud score is plotted as a line in the underlay with coloration reflecting ranging or trending markets (green color above the long threshold, gray between the thresholds, and red below the short threshold). The cloud score is incorporated into the strategy syntax for long and short positions in that the score must be above or below the set threshold for a trade to be placed. A breakdown for the Donchian scoring is as follows:
- Broke the 25-length DC (DC(25)) upper band in the previous 3 bars - +1 if true, 0 if false
- Broke the DC(50) upper band in the previous 3 bars - +2 if true, 0 if false
- Broke the DC(100) upper band in the previous 3 bars - +3 if true, 0 if false
- Broke the DC(150) upper band in the previous 3 bars - +4 if true, 0 if false
- Broke the DC(200) upper band in the previous 3 bars - +5 if true, 0 if false
- Broke the DC(25) lower band in the previous 3 bars - -1 if true, 0 if false
- Broke the DC(50) lower band in the previous 3 bars - -2 if true, 0 if false
- Broke the DC(100) lower band in the previous 3 bars - -3 if true, 0 if false
- Broke the DC(150) lower band in the previous 3 bars - -4 if true, 0 if false
- Broke the DC(200) lower band in the previous 3 bars - -5 if true, 0 if false
- DC(25) basis line above the DC(50) basis line - +1 if true, -1 if false
- DC(25) basis line above the DC(100) basis line - +1 if true, -1 if false
- DC(25)basis line above the DC(150) basis line - +1 if true, -1 if false
- DC(25) basis line above the DC(200) basis line - +1 if true, -1 if false
- DC(50) basis line above the DC(100) basis line - +1 if true, -1 if false
- DC(50) basis line above the DC(150) basis line - +1 if true, -1 if false
- DC(50) basis line above the DC(200) basis line - +1 if true, -1 if false
- DC(100) basis line above the DC(150) basis line - +1 if true, -1 if false
- DC(100) basis line above the DC(200) basis line - +1 if true, -1 if false
- DC(150) basis line above the DC(200) basis line - +1 if true, -1 if false
Thresholds for both the respective macro score and the Donchian Cloud score have been included. Entry signals for each strategy require the score to be >= the respective thresholds for longs and <= the respective thresholds for shorts.
Additionally, a normalized z-score has been included. The z-score does not affect the entry and exit signals, however, it is displayed on the chart in the form of bar coloration. The z-score has been normalized to a range of -1 to +1. A z-score under -0.60 is displayed as a red bar color, a score between -0.60 and -0.2 is displayed as an orange bar color, a score between -0.2 and 0.2 is displayed as a gray bar color, a score between 0.2 and 0.6 is displayed as a lime bar color, and a score over 0.6 is displayed in green.
Data for each respective strategy will be displayed in an overlaid table. This includes the factors that comprise the macro score of choice, the values of each signal that adds up to the macro score, the macro score itself, the value of the momentum line of the macro score, the normalized z-score value, and the Donchian Cloud score (if applicable). Green coloration notes bullish sentiment within the signals or values, gray coloration is neutral, and red coloration notes bearish sentiment.
Take profit, stop loss, and trailing percentages are also included, found at the bottom of the Input tab under “TT and TTP” as well as “Stop Loss”. The take profit and stop loss levels will be reflected as green and red lines respectively on the chart as they occur. Make sure to understand the TP/SL ratio that you desire before use, as the desired hit rate/profitability percentage will be affected accordingly. The option for adding in a trailing stop has also been included, with options to choose between an ATR-based trail or a percentage-based trail. This strategy does NOT guarantee future returns. Apply caution in trading regardless of discretionary or algorithmic. Understand the concepts of risk/reward and the intricacies of each strategy choice before utilizing them in your personal trading.
Profitview/Pineconnector Settings:
If you wish to utilize Profitview’s automation system, find the included “Profitview Settings” under the Input tab of the strategy settings menu. If not, skip this section entirely as it can be left blank. Options will be “OPEN LONG TITLE”, “OPEN SHORT TITLE”, “CLOSE LONG TITLE”, and “CLOSE SHORT TITLE”. If you wished to trade SOL, for example, you would put “SOL LONG”, “SOL SHORT”, “SOL CLOSE LONG”, and “SOL CLOSE SHORT” in these areas. Within your Profitview extension, ensure that your Alerts all match these titles. To set an alert for use with Profitview, go to the “Alerts” tab in TradingView, then create an alert. Make sure that your desired asset and timeframe are currently displayed on your screen when creating the alert. Under the “Condition” option of the alert, select the strategy, then select the expiration time. If using TradingView Premium, this can be open-ended. Otherwise, select your desired expiration time and date. This can be updated whenever desired to ensure the strategy does not expire. Under “Alert actions”, nothing necessarily needs to be selected unless so desired. Leave the “Alert name” option empty. For the “Message”, delete the generated message and replace it with {{strategy.order.alert_message}} and nothing else. If using Pineconnector, follow the same directions for setting up an alert, but use the ",buy,,risk=" syntax as noted in the tooltips.
"The Stocashi" - Stochastic RSI + Heikin-AshiWhat up guys and welcome to the coffee shop. I have a special little tool for you today to throw in your toolbox. This one is a freebie.
This is the Stochastic RS-Heiken-Ashi "The Stocashi"
This is the stochastic RSI built to look like Heikin-Ashi candles.
a lot of people have trouble using the stochastic indicator because of its ability to look very choppy at its edges instead of having nice curves or arcs to its form when you use it on scalping time frames it ends up being very pointed and you can't really tell when the bands turn over if you're using a stochastic Ribbon or you can't tell when it's actually moving in a particular direction if you're just using the K and the D line.
This new format of Presentation seeks to get you to have a better visual representation of what the stochastic is actually doing.
It's long been noted that Heikin-Ashi do a very good job of representing momentum in a price so using it on something that is erratic as the stochastic indicator seems like a plausible idea.
The strategy is simple because you use it exactly the same way you've always used the stochastic indicator except now you can look for the full color of the candle.
this one uses a gradient color setup for the candle so when the candle is fully red then you have a confirmed downtrend and when the candle is fully green you have a confirmed up trend of the stochastic however if, you a combination of the two colors inside of one candle then you do not have a confirmed direction of the stochastic.
the strategy is simple for the stochastic and that you need to know your overall trend. if you are in an uptrend you are waiting for the stochastic to reach bottom and start curving up.
if you are in a downtrend you are waiting for the stochastic to reach its top or its peak and curve down.
In an uptrend you want to make sure that the stochastic is making consistently higher lows just like price should be. if at any moment it makes a lower low then you know you have a problem with your Trend and you should consider exiting.
The opposite is true for a downtrend. In a downtrend you want to make sure you have lower highs. if at any given moment you end up with a higher high than you know you have a problem with your Trend and it's probably ending so you should consider exiting.
The stochastic indicator done as he can actually candles also does a very good job of telling you when there is a change of character. In that moment when the change of character shows up you simply wait until your trend and your price start to match up.
You can also use the stochastic indicator in this format to find divergences the same way you would on the relative strength index against your price highs and price lows so Divergence trading is visually a little bit easier with this tool.
The settings for the K percent D percent RSI length and stochastic length can be adjusted at will so be sure to study the history of the stochastic and find the good settings for your trading strategy.
Stochastic MACD - Slow and FastStochastic MACD - Slow and Fast
The "Stochastic MACD - Slow and Fast" indicator combines two popular technical indicators, the Stochastic Oscillator and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence ( MACD ).
The Stochastic Oscillator is a momentum indicator that measures the current closing position of an asset relative to its recent price range. This indicator helps traders identify possible turning points in an asset's trend, it is used to identify if the market is overbought or oversold.
On the other hand, the MACD is an indicator used to identify the trend and strength of the market and shows the difference between two exponential moving averages ( EMA ) of different periods. The MACD is commonly used to determine the direction of an asset's price trend.
The combination of both indicators can help traders identify market entry and exit opportunities. This indicator has two parts: a slow part and a fast part. The slow part uses input values for the lengths of the moving averages and the length of the signal for the MACD indicator. The fast part uses different input values for the lengths of the moving averages. Also, each part has its own set of line colors and histogram colors for easy visualization.
In general, the "Stochastic MACD - Slow and Fast" indicator is used to identify possible turning points in the trend of an asset. Traders can use the indicator to determine when to enter or exit a position based on the signals generated by the indicator. The stochastic MACD is a variation of the regular MACD that incorporates a stochastic oscillator to provide additional signals.
In summary, this indicator can be useful for those looking for a combination of two popular indicators to help identify trading opportunities.
In addition, parameters were defined to activate or deactivate the graphic signal.
When the Stochastic MACD Slow Line Crosses the Stochastic MACD Slow Signal Line:
Long or Buy = ↑ // The Entry is more Effective if it is made when the signal is below the Zero Trend Line .
Short or Sell = ↓ // The Entry is more Effective if it is made when the signal is above the Zero Trend Line .
When the Fast Stochastic MACD Line Crosses the Slow Stochastic MACD Line:
Long or Buy = ▲ // The Entry is more Effective if it is made when the signal is below the Zero Trend Line .
Short or Sell = ▼ // The Entry is more Effective if it is made when the signal is above the Zero Trend Line .
Taking into account the above, alerts were also defined for possible Purchases or Sales or entries in Long or Short.
COPOSITION AND USE OF THE INDICATOR
This script is an implementation of the Stochastic MACD indicator with two variations - Slow and Fast. It uses a combination of the Stochastic Oscillator and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator to identify trend reversals and momentum shifts in the price of an asset.
The Slow version of the Stochastic MACD is built using three inputs - fastLength, slowLength, and signalLength. The fastLength and slowLength are used to calculate two exponential moving averages (EMAs), while the signalLength is used to calculate a signal line as an EMA of the difference between the two EMAs. The Stochastic Oscillator is then applied to the difference between the two EMAs, and the resulting values are plotted on the chart.
The Fast version of the Stochastic MACD is built using the same inputs as the Slow version, but with different values. It uses a shorter fastLength value and a longer slowLength value to generate the two EMAs, and the resulting values are plotted on the chart.
The script also includes inputs for choosing the type of moving average to use (SMA, EMA, etc.), the source of price data (open, close, etc.), the lookback period, and the colors for the lines and histogram bars.
This script can be used in different markets such as forex, indices, and cryptocurrencies for analysis and trading. However, it is important to note that no trading strategy is guaranteed to be profitable, and traders should always conduct their own research and risk management.
Sniper EntryThis source code is an implementation of a TradingView indicator called "Sniper Entry". The purpose of this indicator is to identify potential entry points for trades based on certain candlestick patterns and the Stochastic oscillator.
The indicator calculates the Stochastic oscillator based on the close, high, and low prices of the asset over a period of 14 bars. It then uses this oscillator to generate buy and sell signals.
For a buy signal to be generated, the Stochastic oscillator must cross above the oversold level of 20, and the current candle must either be a bullish pin bar or a bullish engulfing pattern. For a sell signal to be generated, the Stochastic oscillator must cross below the overbought level of 80, and the current candle must either be a bearish pin bar or a bearish engulfing pattern.
The indicator also calculates the stop loss and target levels for both buy and sell trades. The stop loss is calculated based on the low or high of the candle that generated the signal, depending on whether it's a buy or sell signal. The target is calculated based on the risk/reward ratio, which is set to 3 in this implementation. The lot size is also set to 0.01, and the starting capital is set to 100.
The indicator then plots the buy and sell signals, the stop loss and target levels, and the Stochastic oscillator on the chart.
It's important to note that this is just one example of a trading indicator, and its effectiveness may vary depending on market conditions and the asset being traded. It's also important to perform your own analysis and use proper risk management techniques when making trades based on any indicator or strategy.

Overview
Dynamo is built to be the Swiss-knife for price-movement & strength detection, it aims to provide a holistic view of the current price across multiple dimensions. This is achieved by combining 3 very specific indicators(RSI, Stochastic & ADX) into a single view. Each of which serve a different purpose, and collectively provide a simple, yet powerful tool to gauge the true nature of price-action.
Background
Dynamo uses 3 technical analysis tools in conjunction to provide better insights into price movement, they are briefly explained below:
Relative Strength Index(RSI)
RSI is a popular indicator that is often used to measure the velocity of price change & the intensity of directional moves. RSI computes the relative strength of the current price by comparing the security’s bullish strength versus bearish strength for a given period, i.e. by comparing average gain to average loss.
It is a range bound(0-100) variable that generates a bullish reading if average gain is higher, and a bullish reading if average loss is higher. Values over 50 are generally considered bullish & values less than 50 indicate a bearish market. Values over 70 indicate an overbought condition, and values below 30 indicate oversold condition.
Stochastic
Stochastic is an indicator that aims to measure the momentum in the market, by comparing most recent closing price of the security to its price range for a given period. It is based on the assumption that price tends to close near the recent high in an up trend, and it closes near the recent low during a down trend.
It is also range bound(0-100), values over 80 indicate overbought condition and values below 20 indicate oversold condition.
Average Directional Index(ADX)
ADX is an indicator that can quantify trend strength, it is derived from two underlying indices, known as Directional Movement Index(DMI). +DMI represents strength of the up trend, and -DMI represents strength of the down trend, and ADX is the average of the two.
ADX is non-directional or trend-neutral, which means, it does not follow the direction of the price, instead ADX will rise only when there is a strong trend, it does not matter if it’s an up trend or a down trend. Typical ranges of ADX are 25-50 for a strong trend, anything below 25 is considered as no trend or weak trend. ADX can frequently shoot upto higher values, but it generally finds exhaustion levels around the 60-75 range.
About the script
All these indicators are very powerful tools, but just like any other indicator they have their limitations. Stochastic & ADX can generate false signals in volatile markets, meaning price wouldn’t always follow through with what’s being indicated. ADX may even fail to generate a signal in less volatile markets, simply because it is based on moving averages, it tends to react slower to price changes. RSI can also lose it’s effectiveness when markets are trending strong, as it can stay in the overbought or oversold ranges for an extended period of time.
Dynamo aims to provide the trader with a much broader perspective by bringing together these contrasting indicators into a single simplified view. When Stochastic becomes less reliable in highly volatile conditions, one can cross validate their deduction by looking at RSI patterns. When RSI gets stuck in overbought or oversold range, one can refer to ADX to get better picture about the current trend. Similarly, various combinations of rules & setups can be formulated to get a more deterministic view, when working with either of these indicators.
There many possible use cases for a tool like this, and it totally depends on how you want to use it. An obvious option is to use it to trigger signals only after it has been confirmed by two or more indicators, for example, RSI & Stochastic make a great combination for cross-over or cross-under strategies. Some of the other options include trend detection, strength detection, reversals or price rejection points, possible duration of a trend, and all of these can very easily be translated into effective entry and exit points for trades.
How to use it
Dynamo is an easy-to-use tool, just add it to your chart and you’re good to start with your market analysis. Output consists of three overlapping plots, each of which tackle price movement from a slightly different angle.
Stochastic: A momentum indicator that plots the current closing price in relation to the price-range over a given period of time.
Can be used to detect the direction of the price movement, potential reversals, or duration of an up/down move.
Plotted as grey coloured histograms in the background.
Relative Strength Index(RSI): RSI is also a momentum indicator that measures the velocity with which the price changes.
Can be used to detect the speed of the price movement, RSI divergences can be a nice way to detect directional changes.
Plotted as an aqua coloured line.
Average Directional Index(ADX): ADX is an indicator that is used to measure the strength of the current trend.
Can be used to measure how strong the price movement is, both up and down, or to establish long terms trends.
Plotted as an orange coloured line.
Features
Provides a well-rounded view of the market movement by amalgamating some of the best strength indicators, helping traders make better informed decisions with minimal effort.
Simplistic plots that aim to convey clean signals, as a result, reducing clutter on the chart, and hopefully in the trader's head too.
Combines different types of indicators into a single view, which leads to an optimised use of the precious screen real-estate.
Final Note
Dynamo is designed to be minimalistic in functionality and in appearance, as it is being built to be a general purpose tool that is not only beginner friendly, but can also be highly-configurable to meet the needs of pro traders.
Thresholds & default values for the indicators are only suggestions based on industry standards, they may not be an exact match for all markets & conditions. Hence, it is advisable for the user to test & adjust these values according their securities and trading styles.
The chart highlights one of many possible setups using this tool, and it can used to create various types of setups & strategies, but it is also worth noting that the usability & the effectiveness of this tool also depends on the user’s understanding & interpretation of the underlying indicators.
Lastly, this tool is only an indicator and should only be perceived that way. It does not guarantee anything, and the user should do their own research before committing to trades based on any indicator.
Exponential Stochastic Strategywhat is Exponential Stochastic?
it is a modified version of the stochastic indicator. This strategy does not include pyramiding, repaint, trailing stop or take profit.
what it does?
It contains an extra input in addition to the stochastic indicator. Thanks to this input, different exponential weights can be given to the outputs and the indicator can be made more sensitive or insensitive. The strategy buys when the indicator leaves the overbought zone, sells when it leaves the oversold zone and always stays in the trade.
how it does it?
it uses this formula: i.hizliresim.com
Thanks to this formula, even if the weights given to the outputs change, the indicator always continues to take a value between 0 and 100.
how to use it ?
With the input named "exp", you can change the sensitivity of the indicator and develop different strategies. other inputs are the same as the stochastic indicator. Increasing the exp value causes the indicator to signal less, decreasing it makes it much more sensitive.
Stochastic Oversold / Overbought Multi Time Frame on CandleAt the suggestion of a friend, I prepared this educational indicator to show how to use a Multi time frames on the chart based on the color of The Candle.
This Script calculates the stochastic oscillator for multiple timeframes and displays the overbought/oversold signals on the chart with color coding.
The stochastic oscillator is a momentum indicator that compares a security's closing price to its high-low range over a set number of periods. The indicator oscillates between 0 and 100, with readings above 80 considered overbought and readings below 20 considered oversold.
The indicator has the following input parameters:
%K Length: the number of periods used to calculate the stochastic oscillator (default is 14).
%K Smoothing: the number of periods used to smooth the stochastic oscillator (default is 1).
Three timeframes: The timeframes for which the stochastic oscillator is calculated can be set as 15-minute, 1-hour, or 4-hour intervals. For each timeframe, the user can choose to display the indicator (or not) and set the color of the candle. The user can also set the overbought and oversold levels (default is 80 and 20, respectively).
The indicator calculates the stochastic oscillator using the ta.stoch function from the built-in ta library in PineScript. It then uses the ta.sma function to smooth the stochastic oscillator if specified. Finally, the indicator uses the TimeframFuction to calculate the stochastic oscillator for different timeframes, which is then displayed on the chart using the barcolor function. The color of the candle is set based on whether the stochastic oscillator is overbought or oversold, as determined by the overbought/oversold levels specified by the user.

HISTORY BACKTESTING RESULT:
Wave Master ProThis indicator is built on Stochastics and uses multiple timeframes to give you a heatmap style view of where overbought and oversold levels are across 25 different timeframes.
Here's a few things you'll want to watch out for when using this indicator:
OVERBOUGHT
When a wave goes into overbought or is approaching overbought, you'll notice the heatmap transitioning from orange to red. Probably wise to move up stop losses or close the position out, especially when the entire vertical time slot is completely red.
OVERSOLD
Opposite of overbought, when a wave goes into oversold, the heatmap will transition from orange to green. This could be a good place to close out short positions or be on the lookout for long positions. Again, especially when the entire vertical time slot is completely green.
TIMEFRAMES
This indicator is dynamic in that it will automatically adjust the heatmap timefrmaes as you change the timeframe of your chart.
LIMITATIONS
Due to there being so many different timeframes that are utilized in this indicator, you will find that this indicator works best on 1H timeframes or lower, but it will work up to 4H timeframes. Currently, anything above 4H is not optimal for this indicator. I would recommend using the regular Wave Master indicator if you like using high timeframes.
OTHER USEFUL INFORMATION
This is a vidual aid in determining when many timeframes approach and reach extended levels based on the configuration of the Stochastics that we have found to be most optimal, especially in lower timeframes. It is wise to refer back to the Wave Master indicator for a raw view of the waves.
Macro Score - Dem. Fib. McGinley DynamicsA "macro score", as defined here, is created by giving various weights to different signals and adding them together to get one smooth score. Positive or negative values are assigned to each of the signals depending on if the statement is true or false (e.g. DPO > 0: +1, DPO < 0: -1). This manner of strategy allows for a subset of the available signals to be present at one time as opposed to every technical signal having to be active in order for a long/short signal to trigger.
The DFMG - Democratic Fibonacci McGinley Dynamic - is a separate indicator that we have released that takes 10 different Fibonacci McGinley Dynamics (lengths of 3 to 233, at Fibonacci intervals) and averages them to form the DFMG line. This helps by creating a consensus on the trend based on these dynamic lines alone. Crossovers of the DFMG with the various McGinley lengths as well as a cross of the price source and these lines can provide adequate long and short signals.
This strategy has the signals and weights pre-determined in the code. Heaviest weights have been given to crosses of the DFMG line/McGinley(233) as well as the crosses of the McGinley(3)/DFMG. Additionally, there are thresholds for DPO ( Detrended Price Oscillator , above or below 0), CMO ( Chande Momentum Oscillator , above or below 0), Jurik Volatility Bands (above or below 0), and Stoch RSI (above or below 50). These four signals hold a lighter weight than the McGinley cross signals.
The macro score itself is printed in an underlay as a white line that goes between -10 and 10 for this strategy. In addition to the macro score line, a green momentum line (sourced by the macro score itself) has been included. A crossover/crossunder of the macro score and the macro momentum line is included into the long/short signal syntax in addition to long and short thresholds for the macro score, defaulted to 5 and -5 respectively.
Take profit, stop loss, and trailing percentages are also included, found at the bottom of the Input tab under “TT and TTP” as well as “Stop Loss”. Make sure to understand the TP/SL ratio that you desire before use, as the desired hit rate/profitability percentage will be affected accordingly. The option for adding in a trailing stop has also been included, with options to choose between an ATR-based trail or a percentage-based trail.
This strategy does NOT guarantee future returns. Apply caution in trading regardless of discretionary or algorithmic. Understand the concepts of risk/reward and the intricacies of each strategy choice before utilizing them in your personal trading.
Profitview/Pineconnector Settings:
If you wish to utilize Profitview’s automation system, find the included “Profitview Settings” under the Input tab of the strategy settings menu. If not, skip this section entirely as it can be left blank. Options will be “OPEN LONG TITLE”, “OPEN SHORT TITLE”, “CLOSE LONG TITLE”, and “CLOSE SHORT TITLE”. If you wished to trade SOL, for example, you would put “SOL LONG”, “SOL SHORT”, “SOL CLOSE LONG”, and “SOL CLOSE SHORT” in these areas. Within your Profitview extension, ensure that your Alerts all match these titles. To set an alert for use with Profitview, go to the “Alerts” tab in TradingView, then create an alert. Make sure that your desired asset and timeframe are currently displayed on your screen when creating the alert. Under the “Condition” option of the alert, select the strategy, then select the expiration time. If using TradingView Premium, this can be open-ended. Otherwise, select your desired expiration time and date. This can be updated whenever desired to ensure the strategy does not expire. Under “Alert actions”, nothing necessarily needs to be selected unless so desired. Leave the “Alert name” option empty. For the “Message”, delete the generated message and replace it with {{strategy.order.alert_message}} and nothing else. If using Pineconnector, follow the same directions for setting up an alert, but use the " ,buy, ,risk=" syntax as noted in the tooltips.

Daryl IndicatorThis script is intended to give you signals when to buy or sell a FOREX pair based on a combination of exponential moving averages combined with the Stochastic indicator.
How Buy Signal is Triggered:
Close Price is above 200 EMA (1 Day timeframe)
Close Price is below the 20 EMA (4 Hour timeframe)
Low Price is above the 50 EMA (1 Day timeframe)
Stochastic is less than/equal to 20 (1 Day timeframe)
How Sell Signal is Triggered:
Close Price is below 200 EMA (1 Day timeframe)
Close Price is above the 20 EMA (4 Hour timeframe)
High Price is below the 50 EMA (1 Day timeframe)
Stochastic is greater than/equal to 80 (1 Day timeframe)
All the settings and timeframes of this indicator are adjustable. You can also set this up to send you alerts when a buy or sell signal is triggered.
NOTE - In this example:
200 EMA (1 Day timeframe) = white line
50 EMA (1 Day timeframe) = yellow line
20 EMA (4 Hour timeframe) = orange line
DEVIATION OF THE STOCHASTIC INDICATORThis new technical indicator uses the stochastic oscillator as its base and calculates the deviation of its moving average, generating an alternative view of market volatility.
Stochastic RSI ScreenerStochastic RSI Screener is built as an indicator and can be applied to any chart.
It gives users the ability to choose 5 specific symbols to watch and then specify the required options to change the RSI and Stochastic settings in a way that fits their needs.
This screener shows the values of (CURRENT PRICE, RSI, K-VALUE, D-VALUE) for each one of the specified symbols. It will do the calculations based on the currently opened timeframe for all symbols.
GKD-C Double Smoothed Stochastic of Momentum [Loxx]Giga Kaleidoscope Double Smoothed Stochastic of Momentum Confirmation is a Confirmation module included in Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System".
What is Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System"?
The Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System is a trading system built on the philosophy of the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) algorithmic trading.
What is an NNFX algorithmic trading strategy?
The NNFX algorithm is built on the principles of trend, momentum, and volatility. There are six core components in the NNFX trading algorithm:
1. Volatility - price volatility; e.g., Average True Range, True Range Double, Close-to-Close, etc.
2. Baseline - a moving average to identify price trend (such as "Baseline" shown on the chart above)
3. Confirmation 1 - a technical indicator used to identify trends. This should agree with the "Baseline"
4. Confirmation 2 - a technical indicator used to identify trends. This filters/verifies the trend identified by "Baseline" and "Confirmation 1"
5. Volatility/Volume - a technical indicator used to identify volatility/volume breakouts/breakdown.
6. Exit - a technical indicator used to determine when a trend is exhausted.
How does Loxx's GKD (Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System) implement the NNFX algorithm outlined above?
Loxx's GKD v1.0 system has five types of modules (indicators/strategies). These modules are:
1. GKD-BT - Backtesting module (Volatility, Number 1 in the NNFX algorithm)
2. GKD-B - Baseline module (Baseline and Volatility/Volume, Numbers 1 and 2 in the NNFX algorithm)
3. GKD-C - Confirmation 1/2 module (Confirmation 1/2, Numbers 3 and 4 in the NNFX algorithm)
4. GKD-V - Volatility/Volume module (Confirmation 1/2, Number 5 in the NNFX algorithm)
5. GKD-E - Exit module (Exit, Number 6 in the NNFX algorithm)
(additional module types will added in future releases)
Each module interacts with every module by passing data between modules. Data is passed between each module as described below:
GKD-B => GKD-V => GKD-C(1) => GKD-C(2) => GKD-E => GKD-BT
That is, the Baseline indicator passes its data to Volatility/Volume. The Volatility/Volume indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 1 indicator. The Confirmation 1 indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 2 indicator. The Confirmation 2 indicator passes its values to the Exit indicator, and finally, the Exit indicator passes its values to the Backtest strategy.
This chaining of indicators requires that each module conform to Loxx's GKD protocol, therefore allowing for the testing of every possible combination of technical indicators that make up the six components of the NNFX algorithm.
What does the application of the GKD trading system look like?
Example trading system:
Backtest: Strategy with 1-3 take profits, trailing stop loss, multiple types of PnL volatility, and 2 backtesting styles
Baseline: Leader Exponential Moving Average as shown on chart
Volatility/Volume: Volatility Ratio as shown on chart
Confirmation 1: Double Smoothed Stochastic of Momentum as shown on the chart above
Confirmation 2: Jurik Turning Point Oscillator
Exit: Rex Oscillator
Each GKD indicator is denoted with a module identifier of either: GKD-BT, GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-V, or GKD-E. This allows traders to understand to which module each indicator belongs and where each indicator fits into the GKD protocol chain.
Now that you have a general understanding of the NNFX algorithm and the GKD trading system. Let's go over what's inside the GKD-E Double Smoothed Stochastic of Momentum itself.
What is Double Smoothed Stochastic of Momentum?
The Double Smoothed Stochastic of Momentum demonstrates smoother indicators and therefore gives fewer false signals in comparison with the traditional oscillator.
The indicator is written in accordance with the description given in the book by Joe Dinapoli "Trading With DiNapoli Levels". This oscillator smoothing method leads to a filtering of the most "noise" component of the price movement.
The Double Smoothed Stochastic of Momentum indicator can be used in the strategies oriented to a standard stochastic. However, the stronger smoothing can lead to the loss of an array of signals. It is recommended to apply any trend indicator for more efficient use of the indicator and its signals filtering.
Signals
A GKD-C Confirmation indicator can be used as either a Confirmation 1, Confirmation 2, or Solo Confirmation indicator. See step 3 & 4 of the NNFX algorithm above to understand how this indicator fits into the GKD trading system. The Solo Confirmation setting allows you to test this indicator by itself without an additional GKD-C indicator present in the GKD protocol chain.
On the chart shown above, this indicator is shown as GKD-C Double Smoothed Stochastic of Momentum and is set to Solo Confirmation. The GKD-B Baseline, GKD-V Volatility Ratio, and this indicator satisfy the first three steps in the GKD trading system chain: GKD-B => GKD-V => GKD-C(solo).
The signals from each of these settings are as follows:
Confirmation 1 Signal

A GKD-C Confirmation indicator can be used as either a Confirmation 1, Confirmation 2, or Solo Confirmation indicator. See step 3 & 4 of the NNFX algorithm above to understand how this indicator fits into the GKD trading system. The Solo Confirmation setting allows you to test this indicator by itself without an additional GKD-C indicator present in the GKD protocol chain.
On the chart shown above, this indicator is shown as GKD-C Double Smoothed Stochastic and is set to Solo Confirmation. The GKD-B Baseline, GKD-V Volatility Ratio, and this indicator satisfy the first three steps in the GKD trading system chain: GKD-B => GKD-V => GKD-C(solo).
The signals from each of these settings are as follows:
Confirmation 1 Signal
Initial Long (L): Double Smoothed Stochastic crosses-up over middle-line*

GKD-C DiNapoli Stochastic [Loxx]Giga Kaleidoscope DiNapoli Stochastic Confirmation is a Confirmation module included in Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System".
What is Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System"?
The Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System is a trading system built on the philosophy of the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) algorithmic trading.
What is an NNFX algorithmic trading strategy?
The NNFX algorithm is built on the principles of trend, momentum, and volatility. There are six core components in the NNFX trading algorithm:
1. Volatility - price volatility; e.g., Average True Range, True Range Double, Close-to-Close, etc.
2. Baseline - a moving average to identify price trend (such as "Baseline" shown on the chart above)
3. Confirmation 1 - a technical indicator used to identify trends. This should agree with the "Baseline"
4. Confirmation 2 - a technical indicator used to identify trends. This filters/verifies the trend identified by "Baseline" and "Confirmation 1"
5. Volatility/Volume - a technical indicator used to identify volatility/volume breakouts/breakdown.
6. Exit - a technical indicator used to determine when a trend is exhausted.
How does Loxx's GKD (Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System) implement the NNFX algorithm outlined above?
Loxx's GKD v1.0 system has five types of modules (indicators/strategies). These modules are:
1. GKD-BT - Backtesting module (Volatility, Number 1 in the NNFX algorithm)
2. GKD-B - Baseline module (Baseline and Volatility/Volume, Numbers 1 and 2 in the NNFX algorithm)
3. GKD-C - Confirmation 1/2 module (Confirmation 1/2, Numbers 3 and 4 in the NNFX algorithm)
4. GKD-V - Volatility/Volume module (Confirmation 1/2, Number 5 in the NNFX algorithm)
5. GKD-E - Exit module (Exit, Number 6 in the NNFX algorithm)
(additional module types will added in future releases)
Each module interacts with every module by passing data between modules. Data is passed between each module as described below:
GKD-B => GKD-V => GKD-C(1) => GKD-C(2) => GKD-E => GKD-BT
That is, the Baseline indicator passes its data to Volatility/Volume. The Volatility/Volume indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 1 indicator. The Confirmation 1 indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 2 indicator. The Confirmation 2 indicator passes its values to the Exit indicator, and finally, the Exit indicator passes its values to the Backtest strategy.
This chaining of indicators requires that each module conform to Loxx's GKD protocol, therefore allowing for the testing of every possible combination of technical indicators that make up the six components of the NNFX algorithm.
What does the application of the GKD trading system look like?
Example trading system:
Backtest: Strategy with 1-3 take profits, trailing stop loss, multiple types of PnL volatility, and 2 backtesting styles
Baseline: Leader Exponential Moving Average as shown on chart
Volatility/Volume: Volatility Ratio as shown on chart
Confirmation 1: DiNapoli Stochastic as shown on the chart above
Confirmation 2: Jurik Turning Point Oscillator
Exit: Rex Oscillator
Each GKD indicator is denoted with a module identifier of either: GKD-BT, GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-V, or GKD-E. This allows traders to understand to which module each indicator belongs and where each indicator fits into the GKD protocol chain.
Now that you have a general understanding of the NNFX algorithm and the GKD trading system. Let's go over what's inside the GKD-E DiNapoli Stochastic itself.
What is DiNapoli Stochastic?
The DiNapoli Stochastic demonstrates smoother indicators and therefore gives fewer false signals in comparison with the traditional oscillator.
The indicator is written in accordance with the description given in the book by Joe Dinapoli "Trading With DiNapoli Levels". This oscillator smoothing method leads to a filtering of the most "noise" component of the price movement.
The DiNapoli Stochastic indicator can be used in the strategies oriented to a standard stochastic. However, the stronger smoothing can lead to the loss of an array of signals. It is recommended to apply any trend indicator for more efficient use of the indicator and its signals filtering.
Signals
A GKD-C Confirmation indicator can be used as either a Confirmation 1, Confirmation 2, or Solo Confirmation indicator. See step 3 & 4 of the NNFX algorithm above to understand how this indicator fits into the GKD trading system. The Solo Confirmation setting allows you to test this indicator by itself without an additional GKD-C indicator present in the GKD protocol chain.
On the chart shown above, this indicator is shown as GKD-C DiNapoli Stochastic and is set to Solo Confirmation. The GKD-B Baseline, GKD-V Volatility Ratio, and this indicator satisfy the first three steps in the GKD trading system chain: GKD-B => GKD-V => GKD-C(solo).
The signals from each of these settings are as follows:

Strategy Myth-Busting #5 - POKI+GTREND+ADX - [MYN]This is part of a new series we are calling "Strategy Myth-Busting" where we take open public manual trading strategies and automate them. The goal is to not only validate the authenticity of the claims but to provide an automated version for traders who wish to trade autonomously.
Our fifth one we are automating is one of the strategies from "The Best 3 Buy And Sell Indicators on Tradingview + Confirmation Indicators ( The Golden Ones ))" from "Online Trading Signals (Scalping Channel)". No formal backtesting was done by them and resuructo messaged me asking if we could validate their claims.
Originally, we mimic verbatim the settings Online Trading Signals was using however weren't getting promising results. So before we stopped there we thought we might want to see if this could be improved on. So we adjusted the Renko Assignment modifier from ATR to Traditional and adjusted the value to be higher from 30 to 47. We also decided to try adding another signal confirmation to eliminate some of the ranged market conditions so we choose our favorite, ADX . Also, given we are using this on a higher time-frame we adjusted the G-Channel Trend detection source from close to OHLC4 to get better average price action indication and more accurate trend direction.
This strategy uses a combination of 2 open-source public indicators:
poki buy and sell Take profit and stop loss by RafaelZioni
G-Channel Trend Detection by jaggedsoft
Trading Rules
15m - 4h timeframe. We saw best results at the recommended 1 hour timeframe.
Long Entry:
When POKI triggers a buy signal
When G-Channel Trend Detection is in an upward trend (Green)
ADX Is above 25
Short Entry:
When POKI triggers a sell signal

Zig Zag Stochastic (ZZS)The "Zig Zag Stochastic" indicator is an indicator that uses a combination of zigzag pivot points and exponential smoothing to calculate a stochastic-like oscillator.
The indicator starts by identifying pivot high and pivot low points in the price data using the Zigzag indicator. These pivot points are then used to calculate the scale_price, which is a ratio of the current close price to the range between the current pivot high and pivot low.
Next, the scale_price is smoothed using exponential smoothing. The user can input the desired length of the smoothing period, with a default value of 14. If the user sets the smoothing length to 0, the indicator will automatically calculate the optimal smoothing length using the MAMA period calculation from the Dominant Cycle Estimators library.
The smoothed scale_price is then used to calculate two lines: the K-line and the D-line, both of which are also smoothed using exponential smoothing. The K-line is the main oscillator line and is similar to the %K line in a traditional stochastic oscillator. The D-line is a signal line, similar to the %D line in a traditional stochastic oscillator.
The indicator plots the smoothed scale_price, the K-line, and the D-line. Additionally, it includes horizontal lines at the 80 and 20 levels, and fills the area between them to help identify overbought and oversold conditions.
Adaptive RSI/Stochastic (ARSIS)As a trader, one of the most important aspects of technical analysis is identifying the dominant cycle of the market. The dominant cycle, also known as the market's "heartbeat," can provide valuable information on the current market trend and potential future price movements. One way to measure the dominant cycle is through the use of the MESA Adaptation - MAMA Cycle function, which is a part of the Dominant Cycle Estimators library.
I have developed an "Adaptive RSI/Stochastic" indicator that incorporates the MAMA Cycle function to provide more accurate and reliable signals. The indicator uses the MAMA Cycle function to calculate the period of the data, which is then used as a parameter in the calculation of the RSI and Stochastic indicators. By adapting the calculation of these indicators to the dominant cycle of the market, the resulting signals are more in tune with the current market conditions and can provide a more accurate representation of the current trend.
The MAMA Cycle function is a powerful tool that utilizes advanced mathematical techniques to accurately calculate the dominant cycle of the market. It takes into account the dynamic nature of the market and adapts the calculation of the period to the current conditions. The result is a more accurate and reliable measurement of the market's dominant cycle, which can be used to improve the performance of other indicators and trading strategies.
In conclusion, the Adaptive RSI/Stochastic indicator that I have developed, which incorporates the MAMA Cycle function, is a valuable tool for any trader looking to improve their technical analysis. By adapting the calculation of the RSI and Stochastic indicators to the dominant cycle of the market, the resulting signals are more in tune with the current market conditions and can provide a more accurate representation of the current trend.
