Degen Indicator
This indicator uses candle patterns I have identified by studying cryptocurrency charts. The main goal is to help you tune out noise and price swings so you are better able to trade with the trend. If you can trade with the trend you will be profitable. Don’t fight the trend.
Signals:
Orange T with Orange Bar - Top
Grey T - Weak Top
Orange P - Pause (Minimal pullback expected before additional upside)
Grey B - Weak Bottom
Green B - Possible Bottom
Blue B with Blue Bar - Likely Bottom
Grey D - Weak Dump
Pink D - Possible Dump
Red D - Likely Dump
Bar Colors:
Grey Green #699969 (Slightly Bullish)
Green #2ca02c (Bullish)
Bright Green #00ff00 (Strong Bullish)
Light Pink #cf6666 (Slightly Bearish)
Red #d62728 (Bearish)
Bright Red #ff0000 (Strong Bearish)
Orange Top #ff9800 (Local price maximum)
Blue Bottom #0066ff (Local price minimum)
Recommended Settings:
Change the Body and the Wick to be Grey. Deselect Border.
Purpose:
Making the default bar colors Grey will help you tune into the trend. Look for clusters of candles where only one non Grey color is present. If there are 3 - 5 or more of the same color also pay attention to the size of the candles. You can see the strength of the moves if they are growing or shrinking in size. Oftentimes a trend will end with an Engulfing Candle after a cluster of candles with the other color. Use this as a sign to exit your position and/or enter a new position.
Advice:
Start on HTF and find the clusters of Tops and Bottoms. Dial into lower timeframes to find the local Tops and Bottoms for entry points. Look for clusters of signals. Be ready for one candle to signify a change in the trend then look for confirmation with additional candles. Do not think about Tops or Bottoms as absolutes. A Top that gets beat with a Bullish Engulfing candle is telling you the Bullish strength is strong. Do not short Grey D’s. Do not long Grey B’s. As always, use these signals in conjunction with your other preferred methods of trading to find confluence and trade with the trend. On LTF this indicator will be very noisy. On HTF it will be more stable.
Logic:
Signals were developed by myself and subjected to extensive backtesting. Each signal uses various combinations of: candle names (Doji, Morning Star, Bearish Engulfing, Bullish Engulfing, etc), volume, price change as a percent, price change as an absolute number, length of the wick the open, close, high, and low candle values. The signals incorporate these values ranging from one candle prior to many candles prior attempting to predict the trend.
Logic not used:
Moving Averages, RSI, OBV, VPVR and Bollinger Bands.
