TA Basics: further "Steps" with our Moving AverageSo far in this series of posts, we have worked thru creating a basic zero-lag moving average, then moved forward all the way to coding a "Fibonacci" Weighted Moving Average.
in this post we take a look at a technique that can help traders minimize noise in the underlying data and get better insight on the changes that are happening in the data series represented by the moving average. we'll look at adding "stepping" to our Fibonacci Moving Average as an example. we introduce the Stepping Fibonacci Moving Average , or Step_FiMA
note that you can use the same technique with any plot you may have. feel free to copy or leverage the relevant parts of the script - the script is commented to make this easier.
How is this useful?
==================
with "stepping", you get your indicator to "round" the outcome into pre-specified bands or ranges. this works very similar to how, for example, range or Renko charts work. you can easily see the difference in the chart above once we look at a non-stepped and a stepping moving average of the same length side-by-side
the more granular your timeframe is, you will see the effect of the stepping clearer - here's how the same chart looks when we go into the 1-hr aggregation
Notes about this script
====================
there are couple of pieces i wanted to highlight in the script if you plan to use some of it :
1 - the step(x) function is meant to try to automatically pick the best "suitable" step size based on the range of the underlying series (for example, the closing price). these ranges i included here in the code are just my own "best choices" - you are totally welcome to adjust these ranges and the resulting step size to your own preference
2 - we applied the stepping as a user-choice. user can choose a manual entry, or "0" to get the code to automatically pick the step size, or enter -1 (or actually any value below zero) to cancel the stepping option altogether - this gives us some flexibility on how to use the stepping in an indicator
3 - very important (and somehow confusing): on the "rounding" approach:
the magic math formula that actually creates the stepping is this one
result = round(input / step) * step
now, this tells the script to "round" the result up or down (the basic rounding) -- so for example, a price of 17 with a step of 5 would be rounded (down) to 15, where as a price of 18 would be rounded "up" to 20 -- this is not the way some of us would expect or want, cause the price never reached 20 and they would want an 18 to still be rounded to 15 - and the stepping line not to show 20 *until* the price actually hits or exceeds 20 -- in that case, you would need to replace the function "round" with the function "floor" --
so the new formula becomes: floor(input / step) * step
-- in an ideal world, we can make this rounding choice a user-option in the settings -- maybe in an improved version
4 - we kept the smoothing option, and it takes place before the stepping is applied - we continue to use that smoothing to further minimize the level changes in the FiMA line.
I hope you find this script useful in your journey with technical analysis and DIY scripting, and good luck in your trading.

RedK_Supply/Demand Volume Viewer v1Background
============
VolumeViewer is a volume indicator, that offers a simple way to estimate the movement and balance (or lack of) of supply & demand volume based on the shape of the price bar. i put this together few years ago and i have a version of this published for another platform under different names (Directional Volume, BetterVolume) in case you come across them
what is V.Viewer
=====================
The idea here is to find a "simple proxy" for estimating the demand or supply portions of a volume bar - these 2 forces have the potential to affect the current price trend so we want an easy way to track them - or to understand if a stock is in accumulation or distribution - we want to do this without having access to Level II or bid/ask data, and without having to get into the complexity of exploring the lower timeframe price & volume data
- to achieve that, we depend on a simple assumption, that the volume associated with an up move is "demand" and the volume associated with a down move is "Supply". so we basically extrapolate these supply and demand values based on how the bar looks like - a full "green" price bar / candle will be considered 100% demand, and a full "red" price bar will be considered 100% supply - a bar that opens and closes at the same level will be 50/50 split between supply & demand.
- you may say this is a "too simple" of an assumption to make, but believe me, it works :) at least at the basic scenario we need here: i'm just exploring the volume movement and finding key levels - and it provides a good improvement compared to the classic way we see volume on a chart - which is still available here in VolumeViewer.
in all cases, i consider this to be work in progress, so i'd welcome any ideas to improve (without getting too complicated) - there's already a host of great volume-based indicators that will do the multi timeframe drill down, but that's not my scope here.
Technical Jargon & calculation
===========================
1. first we calculate a score % for the volume portion that is considered demand based on the bar shape
skip this part if it sounds too technical => if you're into coding indicators, you would probably know there are couple of different concepts for that algorithm - for example, the one used in Balance Of Power formula - which i'm a big fan of - but the one i use here is different. (how?) this is my own, ant it simply applies double weight for the "wick" parts of a price bar compared to the "body of the bar" -- i did some side-by-side comparison in past and decided this one works better. you can change it in the code if you like
2. after calculating the Bull vs Bears portion of volume, we take a moving average of both for the length you set, to come up with what we consider to be the Demand vs Supply - as usual, i use a weighted moving average (WMA) here.
3. the balance or net volume between these 2 lines is calculated, then we apply a final smoothing and that's the main plot we will get
4. being a very visual person, i did my best to build up the visuals in the correct order - then also to ensure the "study title" bar is properly organized and is simple and useful (Full Volume, Supply, Demand, Net Volume).
- i wish there was a way in Pine to hide a value that i still need to visually plot but don't want it showing its value on the study title bar, but couldn't find it. so the last plot value is repeated twice.
How to use
===========
- V.Viewer is set up to show the simplified view by default for simplicity. so when you first add it to a chart, you will get only the supply vs demand view you can see in the middle pane in the above chart
- Optional / detailed mode: go into the settings, and expose all other plots, you will be able to add the classic volume histogram, and the Supply / Demand lines - note these 2 lines will be overlay-ed on top of each other - this provides an easy way to see who is in control - especially if you change the display of these 2 lines into "area" style. This is what is showing in the lower pane in the above chart.
** Exploring Key Price Levels
- the premise is, at spots where there's big lack of balance, that's where to expect to find key price levels (support / resistance) and these price levels will come into play in future so can be used to set entry / exit targets for our trades - see the example in the AAPL chart where you can easily locate these "balance or reversal levels" using the tops/bottoms/zero-crossings from the Net Volume line
** Use for longer-term Price Analysis
- we can also use this simple indicator to gain more insights (at a high level) of the price in terms of accumulation vs distribution and if the sellers or buyers are in control - for example, in the above AAPL chart, V.Viewer tells us that buyers have been in control since October 19 - even during the recent drop, demand continued to be in play - compare that to DIS chart below for the same period, where it shows that the market was dumping DIS thru the weakness. DIS was bleeding red most of the time
Final thoughts
=============
- V.Viewer is an attempt to enhance the way we see and use Volume by leveraging the shape of the price bar to estimate volume supply & demand - and the Net between the 2
- it will work for stocks and other instruments as long as there's volume data
- note that V.Viewer does not track trend. each bar is taken in isolation of prior bars - the price may be going down and V.Viewer is showing supply going up (absorption scenario?) - so i suggest you do not use it to make decisions without consulting other trend / momentum indicators - of course this is a possible improvement idea, or can be implemented in another indicator, add in trend somehow, or maybe think of making this a +100 / -100 Oscillator .. feel free to play with these thoughts
- all thoughts welcome - if this is useful to you in your trading, please share with other trades here to learn from each other
- the code is commented - please feel free to use it as you like, or build things on top of it - but please continue to credit the author of this code :)
good luck!

TimeSync by KingThies TimeSync by Kingthies
Written in Pine v4
Applies one function that was published in the Tradingview Pinescript Manual
The Motivation behind this script - Time is 50% of your chart. Many ignore it entirely. This should help give an idea on how to read it and incorporate it in their analysis.
TimeSync by KingThies takes a simple concept and turns it into a visual tracking system of when timeframes of significant impact, all close at the same time.
By utilizing several high time-frames, we see overlaps in periods and more significant events occurring when multiple periods close at once.
The TFs included are 3D,1W,2W and 1M. When users use the timeframes above intraday, the resolution for these HTF's is shown. When using the LTFs, anything lower than 1D/is intraday, the user sees a similar concept but comprised of the 4H, 6H,8H and 10H charts.
Users can adjust the settings to show the HTFs in sync AND also factor in if the event was on a business quarter or new year, which adds more significance to the occurrence.
By seeing when these periods end in sync, we can assume more volatility is present in a given market, presenting various opportunities for traders to take advantage of a given situation.
Apologies in advance for any questions that come up - I will do my best to reply or respond here on Tradingview.com.

Strategy - Stochastic Crosses in Trending MarketThis strategy is based on Stochastic Crosses happening in the Oversold/Overbought area, taken into account the current trend which is determined by an EMA pair.
(Only Longs in uptrend / only Shorts in downtrend)
- Long position is closed when Stochastic is entering Overbought area
- Short position is closed when Stochastic is entering Overbought area
Additionally a logic is implemented to close the position when another (subsequent) Buy or Sell Signal is given after the trend has changed (to avoid fake outs)
- EMA and Stochastic settings can be changed in the settings
- Take Profit / Stop Loss can be dynamically activated in the settings (by defaults only Take Profit is activated)
- Short Position trading can be excluded in the settings (for people trading on platforms without the possibility to open Short Positions)
- Strategy time frame can be entered in the settings
Default setup seems to work well for BTC on 4HR timeframe.
Good luck!
As this is my first strategy, I am very happy for constructive feedback on how to improve this.
ST0PST0P is a kind of a TRAILING STOP LOSS INDICATOR in which users can set up LONG or SHORT trade versions and also can set up a STOP LOSS level by percent % or unit difference.
It tries to solve the problem of stop loss indicators' default BUY or SELL settings and non adjustable stop levels of % and difference change in price levels.
(Will try to make updates to add user defined start bars.)

Bollinger Bands Deviation - yo_adriiiiaanBollinger Band Deviations
In theory price trades within 2 standard deviations 95% of the time. This is an attempt to capture that 5% that deviates from the bands.
Useful for taking profit or signaling a reversal.
Price Swing IndicatorThis indicator shows you the highs and lows of the previous "X" amount of bars. This is an objective way of identifying previous price swings. For example, an input of "10" will show you the Swing High (SH) of the previous 10 bars and the Swing Low (SL) of the previous 10 bars. The higher the number, the higher number of bars included in the calculation. Therefore, the higher the number, the less "noise" taken into consideration. This means that higher input values will not take into consideration smaller retracements. Lower input values will take into account small retracements within larger movements.
Combo Backtest 123 Reversal & Donchian Channel Width This is combo strategies for get a cumulative signal.
First strategy
This System was created from the Book "How I Tripled My Money In The
Futures Market" by Ulf Jensen, Page 183. This is reverse type of strategies.
The strategy buys at market, if close price is higher than the previous close
during 2 days and the meaning of 9-days Stochastic Slow Oscillator is lower than 50.
The strategy sells at market, if close price is lower than the previous close price
during 2 days and the meaning of 9-days Stochastic Fast Oscillator is higher than 50.
Second strategy
The Donchian Channel was developed by Richard Donchian and it could be compared
to the Bollinger Bands. When it comes to volatility analysis, the Donchian Channel
Width was created in the same way as the Bollinger Bandwidth technical indicator was.
As was mentioned above the Donchian Channel Width is used in technical analysis to measure
volatility. Volatility is one of the most important parameters in technical analysis.
A price trend is not just about a price change. It is also about volume traded during this
price change and volatility of a this price change. When a technical analyst focuses his/her
attention solely on price analysis by ignoring volume and volatility, he/she only sees a part
of a complete picture only. This could lead to a situation when a trader may miss something and
lose money. Lets take a look at a simple example how volatility may help a trader:
Most of the price based technical indicators are lagging indicators.
When price moves on low volatility, it takes time for a price trend to change its direction and
it could be ok to have some lag in an indicator.
When price moves on high volatility, a price trend changes its direction faster and stronger.
An indicator's lag acceptable under low volatility could be financially suicidal now - Buy/Sell signals could be generated when it is already too late.
Another use of volatility - very popular one - it is to adapt a stop loss strategy to it:
Smaller stop-loss recommended in low volatility periods. If it is not done, a stop-loss could
be generated when it is too late.
Bigger stop-loss recommended in high volatility periods. If it is not done, a stop-loss could
be triggered too often and you may miss good trades.

DPO RMA STRATEGYThis strategy uses tradingview's built-in "Detrended Price Osciilator" ( DPO )indicator script.
It takes the average of 6 different fib lookback periods. (55,89,144,233,377,610)
This is plotted in the purple line.
It then takes the RMA of the DPO and uses the RMA's to determine entry points with crossovers and crossunders.
It's an extremely easy indicator to use. You mostly only need to adjust the last 2 inputs (These are the RMA Smoother inputs)
Works well with most any market and with any timeframe.
Works great on Heiken Ashi if you keep orders under 150. But I can't post in heiken ashi format thanks to automated traders complaining to tradingivew that they can't make any money with heiken ashi candles
And then pine coders like this that are embraced with high regard because they realized that they can spam a heiken ashi chart with over 400 trades and magically it has excessive slippage.
Double MA CCI"What is the Commodity Channel Index (CCI)?
Developed by Donald Lambert, the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) is a momentum-based oscillator used to help determine when an investment vehicle is reaching a condition of being overbought or oversold. It is also used to assess price trend direction and strength. This information allows traders to determine if they want to enter or exit a trade, refrain from taking a trade, or add to an existing position. In this way, the indicator can be used to provide trade signals when it acts in a certain way.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
• The CCI measures the difference between the current price and the historical average price.
• When the CCI is above zero it indicates the price is above the historic average. When CCI is below zero, the price is below the hsitoric average.
• High readings of 100 or above, for example, indicate the price is well above the historic average and the trend has been strong to the upside.
• Low readings below -100, for example, indicate the price is well below the historic average and the trend has been strong to the downside.
• Going from negative or near-zero readings to +100 can be used as a signal to watch for an emerging uptrend.
• Going from positive or near-zero readings to -100 may indicate an emerging downtrend.
• CCI is an unbounded indicator meaning it can go higher or lower indefinitely. For this reason, overbought and oversold levels are typically determined for each individual asset by looking at historical extreme CCI levels where the price reversed from." ----> 1

II- In process to add analytic MACD histogram correlation and if possible, ploting a relative histogram between the CCI upper and lower band.
P.S.:
Don't set your moving averages lengths to far from each other... This could result in fewer convergence and divergence, also in fewer crossing MA's.

expected range STUDYThis is an indicator that measures how much price movement (low to high) we've seen in a set of 1 bar back, 2 bars back, 3 bars back, 5 bars back, 8 bars back using the Fibonacci sequence up to 89 bars back, and then measures how low or high within each range we are, sort of like giving a rating of 0 for sitting on the lower Bollinger Band and a rating of 100 for sitting on the higher Bollinger band. It combines all the data and weights the data by the historical strength of signal from each length of bands. It's been tuned to a 2 hour XBTUSD chart, but it could be used on other things and other timeframes too. Some tweaking would be needed, though. The final result works more like a trend following indictor than and indicator that tries to pick an exact trend reversal point. However, you're free to use it how you want. Frequently you get a nice red or green spike up showing you when the bottom or top is in, but sometimes those spikes are just the start of an extended down move or up move.
On the chart, a buy (long) signal is generated when the green line crosses up above the orange line. To make it extra clear the background is green when you should be long. A sell (short) signal is generated with the red line crosses up above the yellow line. The background will be red when you should be short. If the background is black, it's indicating a profit of over 53% was taken and it's waiting for another trade to start. Up to you to take profit or keep riding your trade.
For XBTUSD trades, a full take profit on any trade exceeding 53% gains works nice (on 1x leverage) and a stoploss of -7% works quite nicely too. One could use this on up to 2x leverage but I wouldn't recommend going much higher. Have fun. Trade carefully. Don't get rekt.
I will release the "expected range STRATEGY" to go along with this so you can do your own backtesting.
Disclaimer: I haven't tested the alerts, but they should work. Use at your own risk.
(JS) Ultimate RSISo my goal here was to combine all of my RSI ideas into a single indicator in order to make kind of a "Swiss Army Knife" version of the Relative Strength Index ...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, let's begin with the first RSI indicator I made, which is the RSIDVW (Divergence/Volume Weighted);
To rephrase my original post, the "divergence/volume weighted" portion is meant to expand upon the current RSI format by adding more variables into the equation.
The standard RSI is based off one value that you select (open, close, OHLC4, HLC3, etc.) while this version takes three variables into account.
The default setting is to have RSI normal without anything added to it (Divergence Weight = 0)
1st - it takes the standard variable that RSI normally uses.
2nd - it factors RSI divergence by taking the RSI change % and price change % to form a ratio. Using this ratio, I duplicated the RSI formula and created a divergence RS to be factored in with the standard price RS .
3rd - it takes Relative Volume and amplifies/weakens the move based upon volume confirmation. (So if Relative Volume for a price bar is 1.0, the RSI plot would be the same as it normally would)
So to explain the parameters
- Relative Volume Length: This uses the RV length you specify to determine spikes in volume (or lack of volume ), which then is added into the formula to influence the strength of the RSI move
- RV x Divergence: This is how I calculated the original formula, but you can leave this unchecked to turn Relative Volume off, or apply elsewhere.
- RV x RS: There's two sides, Divergence RS and Standard RS - these check marks allow you to select which part you prefer to be multiplied by Relative Volume .
Checking neither turns off Relative Volume , while checking both amplifies its effects by placing it on both sides of the equation.
-Divergence Weight: This controls how much the DVW portion of the formula influences the RSI plot. As I referred to earlier, default is 0 making RSI normal. The Scale is 0-2, so 1.0 would be the same as 50%.
When I do have DVW on, I generally set it to 0.5
-SMA Divergence: To smooth, or not to smooth, that is the question. UJsing an SMA here is much smoother in my opinon, but leaving it unchecked runs it through an RMA the same way standard RSI is calculated.
-Show Fractal Channel: This allows you to see the whole fractal channel around the RSI (This portion of the code, compliments of the original Ricardo Santos fractal script)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next portion of the script is adding a "Slow RSI"...
This is rather simple really, it allows you to add a second RSI plot so that you can watch for crossovers between fast and slow lines.
-Slow RSI: This turns on the second RSI Plot.
-Slow RSI Length: This determines the length of the second RSI Plot.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pivot Point RSI was something a friend of mine requested I make which turned out pretty cool, I thought... It is also available in this indicator.
-Pivot Points: Selecting this enables the rest of the pivot point related parts of the script
If Pivot Points isn't selected, none of the following things will work
-Plot Pivot: Plots the pivot point .
-Plot S1/R1: Plots S1/R1.
-Plot S2/R2: Plots S2/R2.
-Plot S3/R3: Plots S3/R3.
-Plot S4/R4: Plots S4/R4.
-Plot S5/R5: Plots S5/R5.
-Plot Halfway Points: Plots a line between each pivot .
-Show Pivot Labels: Shows the proper label for each pivot .
When using intraday charts, from a 15 minute interval or less the pivots are calculated based on a single days worth of price action, above that the distance expands.
Here are the current resolutions Pivot Points will work with:
Minutes - 1 , 2, 3, 5, 10, 13, 15, 20, 30, 39, 78, 130, 195
Hours - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
Daily
Weekly
Currently not available on seconds or monthly
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Background Colors
Background Colors: I have six color schemes I created for this which can be toggled here (they can be edited).
Gray Background for Dark Mode: Having this on looks much better when using dark mode on your charts.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now finally the last portion, Fibonacci Levels
-Fibonacci Levels: This is off, by default, which then uses the standard levels on RSI (30-50-70). When turned on, it removes these and marks fib levels from 0.146 through 0.886.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So the quick rundown:
Ultimate RSI contains "divergence/volume weighted" modifications, a slow RSI plot, pivot points , and Fibonacci levels all while auto-plotting divergence and having the trend illustrated in the background colors.
RSI has always been my "go to" indicator, so I hope you all enjoy this as much as I do!
Trend-Following Combo-SuperTrend, EMA, Aroon, DMI, Laguerre RSIThis is a trend-following indicator which condenses two SuperTrend indicators -- one based on analysis over a shorter period of time (1.5, 7), and one based on analysis over a longer period of time (1.65, 100) -- into a single indicator which appears on your chart only when both the shorter- and longer-term analysis indicates a "SuperTrend" in the same direction.
Additionally, potential trade entry indicators are displayed in the form of up and down arrows when (by default) three of the following five indicators suggest that the market is trending in the same direction as both the shorter- and longer-term SuperTrend indicators:
EMA Crossover (8, 15)
Aroon Indicator (8)
Aroon Oscillator (8)
Directional Movement Index (DI +/-) (8)
Laguerre RSI (13)
You may update the parameters of any of the indicators to match your own preferences.
Additionally, you may also adjust the "Threshold" of indicators that must be in agreement with the SuperTrend to show a potential trade entry arrow. Bear in mind that if you set the Indicator Threshold too low, you will see more frequent trade entry arrows, many of which will not be profitable if taken. Similarly, set this value too high, and you will see fewer trade entry arrows that may not appear until after most of the "juice" in the trend has evaporated. Ideal values for the threshold seem to be between 2-4, depending on the symbol you are trading.
The following image shows all of the indicators referenced above on a 5-minute chart of the SPY during a single trading day:
And, here is the same period of time showing only the Trend-Following Combo indicator with default settings:

DXY COT Commercial Net PositionsThis script was created due to the lack of position of US Dollar Index Futures (DXY).
It is designed to perform a much more liquid and inclusive position analysis.
As the exponential ratios do not mean anything to positions, weights are used as multipliers instead of exponential functions.
Swedish Krona (SEK) Futures are not directly quoted in Quandl, therefore weighted in Euro / dollar parity.
By perceiving these positions as inverse correlations, you can also identify where the world economy is doing well.
COT Commercial Net Positions are calculated as (Short - Long) because of Commercials act according to the reverse of the market.
In this way, you can follow up normally instead of reverse correlation.
Because except in extreme cases, in which case capitals usually shift to Gold.
This is not the case, since there is no capital inflow to other currencies, it is not a strong sell position to the dollar index.
When there is a shift in bonds, we see the effect of the dollar in general.
I created for the Dollar Index in order not to deviate from the concept.
I wanted to share it with everyone as I thought that you have important clues about how investors take positions.
Modified currency weights :
Euro : % 61.8
Japanese Yen : % 13.6
British Pound : %11.9
Canadian Dollar : % 9.1
Swiss Franc : % 3.6
NOTE : You can use it for all instruments except crypto coins, especially US Dollar Index (DXY).
Since the COT data is taken, it will not repaint in 1 week (1W) timeframe.
The log can also be repaint according to the time of data publication.
It will repaint in lower time frames.
I hope it will help your analysis and your scripts,regards.
Elephant Bar by Oliver VelezThis script detects an event created by Oliver Velez, basically it is a wide-range candle, its range is noticeably larger than the previous candles, this event indicates a possible continuation of the movement, or the beginning of an extended movement. The candle has to be of good body, as a rule it can be taken that the body must be more than 70%. The stop goes below the minimum of the candle and the signal is given when the next candle followed by the elephant candle exceeds its body, this condition is not programmed so that the alert indicates that an elephant candle was generated and the trader has some time to visualize the graph and wait for the signal. Example below:
NOTE: IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT THE TRADER ANALYZE THE CONTEXT OF THE MARKET WHERE THE ELEPHANT BAR IS GENERATED AND DETERMINE ACCORDING TO ITS EXPERIENCE IF THE EVENT HAS A GOOD PROBABILITY OF PROJECTION, YOU MUST NOT TAKE AN ENTRY ONLY BY THIS EVENT, IF YOU DO YOU WILL LOSE ALL YOUR MONEY
.
One of the problems of the elephant bar is that it generates a fairly wide risk unit with respect to other narrow range events, so the risk / benefit ratio is not very large, but it is an event that deserves attention when it occurs in a good location since it generally generates continuation.
If you want to have a lower risk unit and improve the risk / benefit ratio, you can play the “Gift Zone”, when detecting an elephant bar you can wait for a step back inside the elephant bar area and take a position, this will give you a less distance to the stop, but this can lead to the event escaping if there is no recoil.
- The size of the candle is determined by comparing a range of previous candles (you can set the amount at your discretion)
- Search factor: by default 1.3, this means that all bars that have a range greater than the average range of previous candles + 30%, are considered elephant candles (can be configured at your discretion)
- Possibility to configure the percentage of the body that the elephant candle must have.
- Possibility of filtering up to 2 means with direction detection and color change (fully configurable)
- Possibility of filtering by mobile averages
- Alerts
- Additional features
Thumb up if you liked me ..
Leledc Exhaustion V4This is one of my fav script (Leledec Exhaustion). The original script was written in V2 by Glaz here
All I did is to convert this to Version 4 of Pine Scripting language.
An Exhaustion Bar is a bar which signals the exhaustion of the trend in the current direction. In other words, an exhaustion bar is “A bar of the last seller” in case of a downtrend and “A bar of
last buyer” in case of an uptrend.
Having said that when a party cannot take the price further in their direction, naturally the other party comes in, takes charge and reverses the direction of the trend.
The Psychology
Let's assume that we have a group of people, say 100 people who decide to go for a casual running. After running for a few KM's few of them will say “I am exhausted. I cannot run further”. They will quit running. After running further, another bunch of runners will say “I am exhausted. I can’t run further” and they also will quit running. This goes on and on and then there will be a stage where only a few will be left in the running. Now a stage will come where the last person left in the running will say “ am exhausted” and he stops running. That means no one is left now in the
running. This means all are exhausted in the running.
The same way an exhaustion bar works. The reason is an exhaustion bar sometimes formed at almost tops and bottoms.
Timeframe
The exhaustion bars are found on all Time frames as a trend also exists on all Timeframes. However, as a thumb rule “Higher the Time frame, higher will be the accuracy as well as the profitability”.
Trading the Leledec Exhaustion Bars
I may trade as soon as it is shown on the chart.
I may trade when price breaks the high/low of the bar depending on whether I am getting bullish or bearish signal
I may trade when price breaks the high/low of the bar depending on whether I am getting bullish or bearish signal. I may also be looking to ensure the current volume is higher than the previous few
(? how many?) bar volumes.
Storm Trading System This script is inspired by the following :
Fractal Dow RSI Support and Resistance ;
Moving Average Clouds ;
Let's start.
This command is based on a fun description of where we are.
Technical analysis methods are likened to a storm.
Clouds as moving average,risk factor as lightning,
fractals were taken as green and red rain.
In this system:
4 Exponential Moving Averages, ( EMA15, EMA30 , EMA45 , EMA60 ),
interpretation of my own work, Dow Factor RSI, as Fractal Support and Resistance,
interpretation of my own work , DVOG Risk Factor : with changeable background and bar color.
Fractal support resistance level codes do not belong to me.
So I'm not putting a license.
But the other codes are my labor.
Consider the risk factor not as a stop, but as a region of high attention.
It is a warning before hard movements.
And watch out for turbulence in the clouds :)
The regions above and below the clouds are major trend zones, which may take a long time.
Guide the fractals in these areas.
It allows you to comment on this and tons of similar things.
And you see where you are in the big trade from a different perspective.
Repaint issue :
Firstly our source is close . Repaint will only cause the following issue and solution:
There may be a time difference between countries as the dow factor depends on the indexes.
Do not use a low graph time frame in stocks.
Cash in/Cash out Report (CICO) - Quiets market noiseThe cash in/cash out report (CICO for short) was built with the intent to quiet the market noise. The blunt way to say it, this indicator quiets the market manipulators voice and helps the retail investor make more money. I believe money is better of in the 99% hands versus the greedy hoarding that is currently going on. There are dozens of companies in the SP500 that have the same tax rate as unborn babies, nada. These hoarders also have machine learning high frequency trading bots that purposely create fear and anxiety in the markets. When all of the major markets move at the exact same time of day on frequent occasions, I see red flags. I recommend looking into Authorized participants in the ETF market to understand how the markets can be manipulated, specifically Creation and Redemption.
Enough of my rant. This indicator is open source. Directions on how to use the indicator can be found within the code. The basic summary is, clear your charts to bare minimums. Make the colors gray on all candles. Then apply this indicator. The indicator will color the "buy" and "sell" signals on the chart. Keep in mind, markets are manipulated to create fear in the retail investors little heart and can change drastically at any second. This indicator will show real time changes in running sum into and out of the market, it is estimated by average prices and not exact.
Once the chart is all greyed out and the indicator is applied you will see an area colored red and green. What this indicator does is takes a running sum of the new money into and out of the market. It takes the average of the high and low price times the volume. If the price is going up the value is positive, going down will be negative. Then the running sum is displayed. The area section is the running sum and the column bars are each value. When a market is steadily increasing in value you will see the large green area grow. When markets shift, values and display will change in color and vector. Full descriptions are available within the script in the comment sections.
I hope this help you make more money. If this helps you grow profits, give it a like!
Happy investing 99%er!
Weiss Wave Open Interest BarsFirstly :
LazyBear ' s "Weiss Wave " codes are used for open interests.
Original Weiss Wave Volume :
Let's start :
Open Interest vs. Volume: An Overview
Volume and open interest are two key measurements that describe the liquidity and activity of contracts In the options and futures markets. However, their meanings and applications are different. Volume refers to the number of contracts traded in a given period, while open interest denotes the number of active contracts.
Volume
Trading volume measures the number of options or futures contracts being exchanged between buyers and sellers, identifying the level of activity for that particular contract. For every buyer, there is a seller, and the transaction itself counts toward the daily volume.
Open Interest
Open interest indicates the number of options or futures contracts that are held by traders and investors in active positions. These positions have not been closed out, expired, or exercised. Open interest decreases when holders and writers of options (or buyers and sellers of futures) close out their positions. To close out positions, they must take offsetting positions or exercise their options. Open interest increases once again when investors and traders open new long positions or writers/sellers take on new short positions. Open interest also increases when new options or futures contracts are created.
Options or futures contract trading volume can only increase while open interest can either increase or decrease. While trading volume indicates the number of contracts that have been bought or sold, open interest identifies the number of contracts that are currently held.
Reference : www.investopedia.com
*** Worked to define all futures . You can look them in codes (between line : 13 to line 94 )
** CAUTION 1 : Since each instrument in the list has its own unique contract data, you must first enter its name to display it. I recommend you to select OANDA from the markets. Finally, when the COT reports are issued, it may repaints. However, this repaint is usually close to closing or after close .(When COT reports are so sharp ) So use this script only 1W ( 1 week ) or 1 M ( 1 month ) timeframe.
** CAUTION 2 : This data is taken to Tradingview with the help of Quandl. This is a tremendous possibility, but the system will not work if there is a malfunction.
Best regards.
Volume & Dollar BarsThis scriptlet is a part of an ongoing project and attempts at volume and dollar bar identification. The original idea is taken from excellent books 'Hands-On Machine Learning for Algorithmic Trading' (2019) by Stefan Jansen and 'Advances in Financial Machine Learning' (2018) by Marcos Lopez de Prado.
Statement of Purpose
I am an advocate of Open source and against those who publish their code with a lock icon. My code and ideas are aimed at people with critical thinking, who are able to take an informative and responsible decision when it comes to investing their funds. I do not guarantee that all of my ideas will perform well. As usual, they require a certain degree of your sound judgment. My final aim is to provide you with coding techniques that you could use in your own scripts and strategies.
Delta Volume Columns [LucF]Displays delta volume columns using intrabar volume information. Each volume column is divided into three sections: buying, selling and neutral volume. Volume for each section is determined from the volume and price movement of each intrabar at a user-selected lower resolution.
Features include:
- Choice of color themes for either dark or light chart backgrounds
- Delta volume columns
- Volume Balance displayed as the difference between the MAs of buying and selling volume
- Display of divergences between a bar’s volume balance and the bar’s price movement (example: buying volume > selling volume but close < open). Divergences can be shown in 2 different color schemes (including green/red showing a tentative direction), on volume columns and/or on chart bars
- Display of bar by bar volume balance with highlighting of above average volume
- Display of the usual total volume MA
- Choice of the lower resolution used to retrieve intrabar information
- Alerts configurable on any combination of the markers, with control over long/short direction
- Choice of 3 different markers:
1. Double bumps: two consecutive bars where buying or selling volume is in the same direction and where volume > volume MA
2. Divergence confirmations: direction of the price bar following a price/volume balance divergence
3. Volume balance shifts: zero level crossings of the volume balance MA delta
The chart shows the two main modes of display:
- Top pane : shows the stacked volume columns with divergences in orange and the flattened volume balance MAs delta at the bottom of the volume columns. This volume balance is the same shown in the bottom pane. The top pane also shows the instant volume balance strip above the volume columns. The strip’s colors show which of the buying or selling volume was greater, and colors are brighter if the total volume was above the total volume MA.
- Bottom pane : shows the volume balance MAs delta with markers 1 and 2. Given that this graphic has no price momentum component, I find quite eerie how it often looks like a momentum-based signal.
The default 5 minute intrabar resolution is used in combination with the weekly chart, which is excessive.
This script uses a special characteristic of the security() function’s behavior when it is sent to a resolution lower than the chart’s resolution. Details are given in the script’s comments. This method has the advantage of working under more circumstances than some of the other loop-based methods, but it also has its limits.
IMPORTANT
This is what you need to know:
- The method used does not work on the realtime bar—only on historical bars. Consequently, the volume column shown on the realtime bar is a normal volume column plotted in green or red, following price movement. The column will only show delta volume information after it closes and becomes a historical bar.
- The indicator only works on some chart resolutions: 5, 10, 15 and 30 minutes, 1, 2, 4, 6, and 12 hours, 1 day, 1 week and 1 month. The script’s code can be modified to run on other resolutions, but chart resolutions must be divisible by the lower resolution used for intrabars.
- Intrabar resolutions can be selected from 1, 5, 15, 30, 45 minutes, 1, 2, 3, 4 hours, 1 day, 1 week and 1 month. The intrabar resolution must of course be smaller than the chart’s resolution.
- Contrary to my other indicators where alerts must be configured to trigger “Once Per Bar Close” in order to avoid false triggers (or repainting), all this indicator’s alerts are designed to trigger using previous bar information since the indicator’s calculations in the realtime bar are not exact. Markers are not plotted with a negative offset; they appear at the beginning of the realtime bar following confirmation of the marker’s condition on the previous bar. Alerts for this indicator should thus be configured to trigger “Once Per Bar” so they trigger at the beginning of the realtime bar. Note that the penalty is not that great, as it is simply the instant between the close of the previous realtime bar and the opening of the next. The advantage of using this technique is that the indicator does not repaint; a marker that appears at the beginning of the realtime bar will never disappear.
- The script only plots information that is reliable in the realtime bar, i.e., total volume and markers. All other plots are set to n/a to prevent misleading traders.
- When the difference between the chart’s resolution and the lower resolution is too important, volume columns will not calculate for all bars in the dataset.
On Delta Volume
Buying or selling volume are misnomers, as every unit of volume transacted is both bought and sold by 2 different traders. There is no such thing as “buy only” or “sell only” volume, but trader lingo is riddled with original fabulations.
Without access to order book information, traders work with the assumption that when price moves up during a bar, there was more buying pressure than selling pressure. The built-in volume indicator available on TradingView uses this logic to color the volume columns green or red. While this script’s numbers are more precise because it analyses a number of intrabars to calculate its information, it uses the exact same imperfect logic to calculate its buying/selling/neutral sections.
Until Pine scripts can have access to how much volume was transacted at the bid/ask prices, our so-called buying/selling volume information will always be a mere proxy.
Divergences
You may wonder how there can be divergences between buying/selling volume information and price movement. This will sometimes be due to the methodology’s shortcomings we have just discussed, but divergences may also occur in instances where because of order book structure, it takes less volume to increase the price of an asset than it takes to decrease it.
As usual, divergences are points of interest because they reveal imbalances, which may or may not become turning points. I do not share the overwhelming enthusiasm traders have for divergences. To your pattern-hungry brain, the orange bars this indicator shows on chart will—as divergences on other indicators do–appear to often indicate turnarounds. My opinion is that reality is generally quite sobering, as many who have tried building automated rules based on divergences will tell you. I do not have hard numbers on the lack of performance of divergences—only many failed attempts to make them perform, which a few experienced strategy modelers I know share with me. Please don’t try to read too much into them. While they look great on past data, I find they are often difficult to use in realtime to make bets with good odds.
Thanks to:
- A guy called Kuan who commented on a Backtest Rookies presentation of an intrabar delta volume indicator using a for loop. The heart of “my” indicator is code borrowed from Kuan; I just built a hopefully useful wrapper around it.
