Reversal Trading Bot Strategy[BullByte]Overview :
The indicator Reversal Trading Bot Strategy is crafted to capture potential market reversal points by combining momentum, volatility, and trend alignment filters. It uses a blend of technical indicators to identify both bullish and bearish reversal setups, ensuring that multiple market conditions are met before entering a trade.
Core Components :
Technical Indicators Used :
RSI (Relative Strength Index) :
Purpose : Detects divergence conditions by comparing recent lows/highs in price with the RSI.
Parameter : Length of 8.
Bollinger Bands (BB) :
Purpose : Measures volatility and identifies price levels that are statistically extreme.
Parameter : Length of 20 and a 2-standard deviation multiplier.
ADX (Average Directional Index) & DMI (Directional Movement Index) :
Purpose : Quantifies the strength of the trend. The ADX threshold is set at 20, and additional filters check for the alignment of the directional indicators (DI+ and DI–).
ATR (Average True Range) :
Purpose : Provides a volatility measure used to set stop levels and determine risk through trailing stops.
Volume SMA (Simple Moving Average of Volume ):
Purpose : Helps confirm strength by comparing the current volume against a 20-period average, with an optional filter to ensure volume is at least twice the SMA.
User-Defined Toggle Filters :
Volume Filter : Confirms that the volume is above average (or twice the SMA) before taking trades.
ADX Trend Alignment Filter : Checks that the ADX’s directional indicators support the trade direction.
BB Close Confirmation : Optionally refines the entry by requiring price to be beyond the upper or lower Bollinger Band rather than just above or below.
RSI Divergence Exit : Allows the script to close positions if RSI divergence is detected.
BB Mean Reversion Exit : Closes positions if the price reverts to the Bollinger Bands’ middle line.
Risk/Reward Filter : Ensures that the potential reward is at least twice the risk by comparing the distance to the Bollinger Band with the ATR.
Candle Movement Filter : Optional filter to require a minimum percentage move in the candle to confirm momentum.
ADX Trend Exit : Closes positions if the ADX falls below the threshold and the directional indicators reverse.
Entry Conditions :
Bullish Entry :
RSI Divergence : Checks if the current close is lower than a previous low while the RSI is above the previous low, suggesting bullish divergence.
Bollinger Confirmation : Requires that the price is above the lower (or upper if confirmation is toggled) Bollinger Band.
Volume & Trend Filters : Combines volume condition, ADX strength, and an optional candle momentum condition.
Risk/Reward Check : Validates that the trade meets a favorable risk-to-reward ratio.
Bearish Entry :
Uses a mirror logic of the bullish entry by checking for bearish divergence, ensuring the price is below the appropriate Bollinger level, and confirming volume, trend strength, candle pattern, and risk/reward criteria.
Trade Execution and Exit Strateg y:
Trade Execution :
Upon meeting the entry conditions, the strategy initiates a long or short position.
Stop Loss & Trailing Stops :
A stop-loss is dynamically set using the ATR value, and trailing stops are implemented as a percentage of the close price.
Exit Conditions :
Additional exit filters can trigger early closures based on RSI divergence, mean reversion (via the middle Bollinger Band), or a weakening trend as signaled by ADX falling below its threshold.
This multi-layered exit strategy is designed to lock in gains or minimize losses if the market begins to reverse unexpectedly.
How the Strategy Works in Different Market Conditions :
Trending Markets :
The ADX filter ensures that trades are only taken when the trend is strong. When the market is trending, the directional movement indicators help confirm the momentum, making the reversal signal more reliable.
Ranging Markets :
In choppy markets, the Bollinger Bands expand and contract, while the RSI divergence can highlight potential turning points. The optional filters can be adjusted to avoid false signals in low-volume or low-volatility conditions.
Volatility Management :
With ATR-based stop-losses and a risk/reward filter, the strategy adapts to current market volatility, ensuring that risk is managed consistently.
Recommendation on using this Strategy with a Trading Bot :
This strategy is well-suited for high-frequency trading (HFT) due to its ability to quickly identify reversal setups and execute trades dynamically with automated stop-loss and trailing exits. By integrating this script with a TradingView webhook-based bot or an API-driven execution system, traders can automate trade entries and exits in real-time, reducing manual execution delays and capitalizing on fast market movements.

Penny King**Penny King Trend Indicator**
The **Penny King** is a powerful and versatile trend-following indicator designed to assist traders in identifying market trends and dynamic support/resistance levels. This tool effectively leverages Adaptive True Range (ATR) and Exponential Moving Average (EMA) or a Delta Price method to establish a trailing stop level, ensuring traders can capture strong trends while minimizing risk.
### **Key Features:**
1. **Dual Calculation Modes:**
- **ATR & EMA-Based Mode (Mode 0)**: Uses ATR (Average True Range) and EMA (Exponential Moving Average) to determine the trailing stop level dynamically.
- **Delta Price Mode (Mode 1)**: Utilizes a fixed price change threshold (Delta Price) to define stop levels based on market volatility.
2. **Adjustable Parameters for Customization:**
- **Range (akk_range)**: Defines the lookback period for the ATR calculation.
- **IMA Range (ima_range)**: Specifies the EMA smoothing factor applied to the ATR.
- **Factor (akk_factor)**: Multiplier applied to the ATR-based calculation to refine trailing stop sensitivity.
- **Delta Price (DeltaPrice)**: Fixed price-based stop level for an alternative trend calculation.
3. **Intelligent Trailing Stop Mechanism:**
- The trailing stop level dynamically adjusts based on price movement, following the trend while preventing premature exits.
- If the price moves in favor of the trend, the stop level is adjusted accordingly to lock in profits.
- If the price reverses against the trend, the stop level remains intact until a new trend direction is established.
4. **Efficient Market Adaptability:**
- The ATR-based method ensures adaptability to changing market conditions, expanding stop levels in high volatility and tightening them in low volatility periods.
- The Delta Price method offers a fixed approach, ideal for traders who prefer a non-ATR-based system for managing stop levels.
5. **Clean Visual Representation:**
- The indicator plots a clear, orange-colored trend stop line that dynamically follows the market movement.
- Provides a visual cue to determine potential entry and exit points efficiently.
### **How to Use:**
- **Trend Confirmation:**
- If the price remains above the trend stop line, it signals a bullish trend.
- If the price falls below the trend stop line, it indicates a bearish trend.
- **Trade Entries & Exits:**
- Consider long positions when the price remains above the trend stop.
- Consider short positions when the price stays below the trend stop.
- Utilize the trend stop line as a dynamic trailing stop-loss mechanism to protect gains and minimize losses.
- **Parameter Optimization:**
- Adjust the **Range**, **IMA Range**, and **Factor** to optimize settings based on the trading asset and time frame.
- Experiment with **Delta Price Mode** for assets where fixed price-based trailing stops are more effective.
### **Conclusion:**
The **Penny King Trend Indicator** is an essential tool for traders looking to capture market trends while ensuring effective risk management. Whether you prefer ATR-based adaptability or a fixed price stop approach, this indicator provides the flexibility needed to navigate different market conditions successfully. By integrating the **Penny King**, traders can enhance their trading strategy with a reliable and efficient trend-following system.
Adaptive Stochastic Oscillator with Signals [AIBitcoinTrend]👽 Adaptive Stochastic Oscillator with Signals (AIBitcoinTrend)
The Adaptive Stochastic Oscillator with Signals is a refined version of the traditional Stochastic Oscillator, dynamically adjusting its lookback period based on market volatility. This adaptive approach improves responsiveness to market conditions, reducing lag while maintaining trend sensitivity. Additionally, the indicator includes real-time divergence detection and an ATR-based trailing stop system, allowing traders to manage risk and optimize trade exits effectively.
👽 What Makes the Adaptive Stochastic Oscillator Unique?
Unlike the standard Stochastic Oscillator, which uses a fixed lookback period, this version dynamically adjusts the period length using an ATR-based fractal dimension. This makes it more responsive to market conditions, filtering out noise while capturing key price movements.
Key Features:
Adaptive Lookback Calculation – Stochastic period changes dynamically based on volatility.
Real-Time Divergence Detection – Identify bullish and bearish divergences instantly.
Implement Crossover/Crossunder signals tied to ATR-based trailing stops for risk management
👽 The Math Behind the Indicator
👾 Adaptive Lookback Period Calculation
Traditional Stochastic Oscillators use a fixed-length period for their calculations, which can lead to inaccurate signals in varying market conditions. This version automatically adjusts its lookback period based on market volatility using an ATR-based fractal dimension approach.
How it Works:
The fractal dimension (FD) is calculated using the ATR (Average True Range) over a defined period.
FD values dynamically adjust the Stochastic lookback period between a minimum and maximum range.
This results in a faster response in high-volatility conditions and smoother signals during low volatility.
👽 How Traders Can Use This Indicator
👾 Divergence Trading Strategy
Traders can anticipate trend reversals before they occur using real-time divergence detection.
Bullish Divergence Setup:
Identify price making a lower low while Stochastic %K makes a higher low.
Enter a long trade when Stochastic confirms upward momentum.
Bearish Divergence Setup:
Identify price making a higher high while Stochastic %K makes a lower high.
Enter a short trade when Stochastic confirms downward momentum.
👾 Trailing Stop & Signal-Based Trading
Bullish Setup:
✅Stochastic %K crosses above 90 → Buy signal.
✅A bullish trailing stop is placed at low - ATR × Multiplier.
✅Exit if the price crosses below the stop.
Bearish Setup:
✅Stochastic %K crosses below 10 → Sell signal.
✅A bearish trailing stop is placed at high + ATR × Multiplier.
✅Exit if the price crosses above the stop.

FVG Instantaneous Mitigation Signals [LuxAlgo]The FVG Instantaneous Mitigation Signals indicator detects and highlights "instantaneously" mitigated fair value gaps (FVG), that is FVGs that get mitigated one bar after their creation, returning signals upon mitigation.
Take profit/stop loss areas, as well as a trailing stop loss are also included to complement the signals.
🔶 USAGE
Instantaneous Fair Value Gap mitigation is a new concept introduced in this script and refers to the event of price mitigating a fair value gap one bar after its creation.
The resulting signal sentiment is opposite to the bias of the mitigated fair value gap. As such an instantaneously mitigated bearish FGV results in a bullish signal, while an instantaneously mitigated bullish FGV results in a bearish signal.
Fair value gap areas subject to instantaneous mitigation are highlighted alongside their average level, this level is extended until reached in a direction opposite to the FVG bias and can be used as a potential support/resistance level.
Users can filter out less volatile fair value gaps using the "FVG Width Filter" setting, with higher values highlighting more volatile fair value gaps subject to instantaneous mitigation.
🔹 TP/SL Areas
Users can enable take-profit/stop-loss areas. These are displayed upon a new signal formation, with an area starting from the mitigated FVG area average to this average plus/minus N ATRs, where N is determined by their respective multiplier settings.
Using a higher multiplier will return more distant areas from the price, requiring longer-term variations to be reached.
🔹 Trailing Stop Loss
A trailing-stop loss is included, increasing when the price makes a new higher high or lower low since the trailing has been set. Using a higher trailing stop multiplier will allow its initial position to be further away from the price, reducing its chances of being hit.
The trailing stop can be reset on "Every Signal", whether they are bullish or bearish, or only on an "Inverse Signal", which will reset the trailing when a signal of opposite bias is detected, this will preserve an existing trailing stop when a new signal of the same bias to the present one is detected.
🔶 DETAILS
Fair Value Gaps are ubiquitous to price action traders. These patterns arise when there exists a disparity between supply and demand. The action of price coming back and filling these imbalance areas is referred to as "mitigation" or "rebalancing".
"Instantaneous mitigation" refers to the event of price quickly mitigating a prior fair value gap, which in the case of this script is one bar after their creation. These events are indicative of a market more attentive to imbalances, and more willing to correct disparities in supply and demand.
If the market is particularly sensitive to imbalances correction then these can be excessively corrected, leading to further imbalances, highlighting a potential feedback process.
🔶 SETTINGS
FVG Width Filter: Filter out FVGs with thinner areas from returning a potential signal.
🔹 TP/SL
TP Area: Enable take-profit areas for new signals.
Multiplier: Control the distance from the take profit and the price, with higher values returning more distant TP's.
SL Area: Enable stop-loss areas for new signals.
Multiplier: Control the distance from the stop loss and the price, with higher values returning more distant SL's.
🔹 Trailing Stop
Reset Trailing Stop: Determines when the trailing stop is reset.
Multiplier: Controls the initial position of the trailing stop, with higher values returning more distant trailing stops.
Power Hour Money StrategyDescription of the Pine Script Code: "Power Hour Money Strategy"
This Pine Script strategy, "Power Hour Money Strategy," is designed to trade based on the alignment of multiple time frames (month, week, day, and hour). The strategy aims to enter long or short positions depending on whether all selected time frames are in sync (all green for long positions, all red for short positions). Additionally, the script includes configurations for trading during specific sessions and automatically closing positions at the end of the trading day.
Core Features:
1. Time Frame Sync Check:
- The strategy evaluates whether the current price is higher than the opening price for the month, week, day, and hour to determine if each time frame is "green" (bullish) or "red" (bearish).
2. Session Control:
- The user can select between different trading sessions:
- "NY Session 9:30-11:30"
- "Extended NY Session 8-4"
- "All Sessions"
- Trades are only executed if the current time falls within the selected session.
3. Trailing Stop Mechanism:
- The strategy includes an optional trailing stop mechanism for both long and short positions.
- The trailing stop is configured with a percentage loss from the current price to protect gains.
4. End-of-Day Position Management:
- An option is provided to automatically close all positions at the end of the trading day (5:45 PM Eastern Time).
Detailed Code Breakdown:
1. Input Settings:
- **Session Selection**: Allows the user to choose the trading session.
- **End-of-Day Close**: Option to automatically close positions at the end of the day.
- **Trailing Stop Loss**: Enables or disables the trailing stop loss feature and sets the percentage for long and short positions.
2. Time Frame Calculations:
- The script uses `request.security` to get the opening prices for higher time frames (monthly, weekly, daily, and hourly).
- It compares the current close price to these opening prices to determine if each time frame is green or red.
3. Session Time Definitions:
- Defines the start and end times for the NY session (9:30-11:30 AM) and the extended session (8:00 AM - 4:00 PM).
4. Trade Execution:
- The strategy checks if all selected time frames are in sync and if the current time falls within the trading session.
- If all conditions are met, it enters a long or short position.
5. Trailing Stop Loss Implementation:
- Adjusts the stop price based on the trailing percentage and the current position's size.
- Automatically exits positions if the trailing stop condition is met.
6. End-of-Day Close Implementation:
- Uses a timestamp to check if the current time is 5:45 PM Eastern Time.
- Closes all positions if the end-of-day condition is met.
7. Plotting and Logging:
- Plots indicators to visualize the green/red status of each time frame.
- Logs information about the status of each time frame for debugging and analysis.
Example Usage:
Entering a Long Position: If the month, week, day, and hour are all green and the current time is within the selected session, a long position is entered.
Entering a Short Position: If the month, week, day, and hour are all red and the current time is within the selected session, a short position is entered.
Trailing Stop: Protects gains by exiting the position if the price moves against the set trailing stop percentage.
End-of-Day Close: Automatically closes all open positions at 5:45 PM Eastern Time if enabled.
This strategy is particularly useful for traders who want to ensure that multiple time frames are in alignment before entering a trade and who wish to manage positions effectively throughout the trading day with specific session controls and trailing stops.
Linear Reg CandlesThe provided Pine Script is a TradingView script for creating a technical analysis indicator called "Humble LinReg Candles." This script includes features such as linear regression for open, high, low, and close prices, signal smoothing with simple or exponential moving averages, and a trailing stop based on Average True Range (ATR). Additionally, the script contains a screener section to display signals for a list of specified symbols.
Here is a breakdown of the script:
Indicator Settings:
It defines various input parameters such as signal smoothing length, linear regression settings, and options for using simple moving averages.
Linear regression is applied to open, high, low, and close prices based on user-defined settings.
ATR Trailing Stop:
It calculates the Average True Range (ATR) and uses it to determine a trailing stop for buy and sell signals.
Signals are generated based on whether the close price is above or below the ATR trailing stop.
Plotting:
The script plots the calculated signal on the chart using the plot function.
Buy and Sell Conditions:
Buy and sell conditions are defined based on the relationship between the close price and the ATR trailing stop.
Plot shapes and bar colors are used to visually represent buy and sell signals on the chart.
Alerts:
Alerts are triggered when buy or sell conditions are met.
Screener Section:
The script defines a screener section to display a watchlist of symbols with long and short signals.
The watchlist includes a set of predefined symbols with corresponding long and short signals.
Table Theme Settings:
The script allows customization of the table theme, including background color, frame color, and text color.
The size and location of the table on the chart can also be customized.
Screener Function:
A function getSignal is defined to determine long and short signals for each symbol in the watchlist.
The getSym function is used to extract the symbol name from the symbol string.
Dashboard Creation:
The script creates a table (dashboard) to display long and short signals for the symbols in the watchlist.
The table includes headers for "Long Signal" and "Short Signal" and lists the symbols with corresponding signals.
Overall, the script combines technical analysis indicators and a screener to help traders identify potential buy and sell signals for a set of specified symbols.
Targets For Overlay Indicators [LuxAlgo]The Targets For Overlay Indicators is a useful utility tool able to display targets during crossings made between the price and external indicators on the user chart. Users can display a series of two targets, one for crossover events and another one for crossunder event.
Alerts are included for the occurrence of a new target as well as for reached targets.
🔶 USAGE
In order for targets to be displayed users need to select an appropriate input source from the "Source" drop-down input setting. In the example above we apply the indicator to a volatility stop.
This can also easily be done by adding the "Targets For Overlay Indicators" script on the VStop indicator directly.
Targets can help users determine the price limit where the price might start deviating from an indication given by one or multiple indicators. In the context of trading, targets can help secure profits/reduce losses of a trade, as such this tool can be useful to evaluate/determine user take profits/stop losses.
Due to these essentially being horizontal levels, they can also serve as potential support/resistances, with breakouts potentially confirming new trends.
Users might be interested in obtaining new targets once one is reached, this can be done by enabling "New Target When Reached" in the target logic setting section, resulting in more frequent targets.
Lastly, users can restrict new target creation until current ones are reached. This can result in fewer and longer-term targets, with a higher reach rate.
🔹 Examples
The indicator can be applied to many overlay indicators that naturally produce crosses with the price, such as moving average, trailing stops, bands...etc.
Users can use trailing stops such as the SuperTrend or VStop to more easily create clean targets. Do note that certain SuperTrend scripts separate the upper and lower extremities of the SuperTrend into two different plot, which cannot be used with this tool, you may use the provided SuperTrend script below to have a compatible version with our tool:
//@version=5
indicator("SuperTrend", overlay = true)
factor = input.float(3, 'Factor', minval = 0)
atrLen = input.int(10, 'ATR Length', minval = 1)
= ta.supertrend(factor, atrLen)
plot(spt, 'SuperTrend', dir != dir ? na : dir < 0 ? #089981 : #f23645, 2)
plot(spt, 'Circles', dir > dir ? #f23645 : dir < dir ? #089981 : na, 3, plot.style_circles)
Using moving averages can produce more targets than other overlay indicators.
Users can apply the tool twice when using bands or any overlay indicator returning two outputs, using crossover targets for obtaining targets using the upper band as source and crossunder targets for targets using the lower band. We can also use the Trendlines with breaks indicator as example:
🔹 Dashboard
A dashboard is displayed on the top right of the chart, displaying the amount, reach rate of targets 1/2, and total amount.
This dashboard can be useful to evaluate the selected target distances relative to the selected conditions, with a higher reach rate suggesting the distance of the targets from the price allows them to be reached.
🔶 SETTINGS
Source: Indicator source used to create targets. Targets are created when the closing price crosses the specified source.
Show Target Labels: Display target labels on the chart.
Candle Coloring: Apply candle coloring based on the most recent active target.
🔹 Target
Crossover and Crossunder targets use the same settings below:
Show Target: Determines if the target is displayed or not.
Above Price Target: If selected, will create targets above the closing price.
Wait Until Reached: When enabled will not create a new target until an existing one is reached.
New Target When Reached: Will create a new target when an existing one is reached.
Evaluate Wicks: Will use high/low prices to determine if a target is reached. Unselecting this setting will use the closing price.
Target Distance From Price: Controls the distance of a target from the price. Can be determined in currencies/points, percentages, ATR multiples, or ticks.
AI Channels (Clustering) [LuxAlgo]The AI Channels indicator is constructed based on rolling K-means clustering, a common machine learning method used for clustering analysis. These channels allow users to determine the direction of the underlying trends in the price.
We also included an option to display the indicator as a trailing stop from within the settings.
🔶 USAGE
Each channel extremity allows users to determine the current trend direction. Price breaking over the upper extremity suggesting an uptrend, and price breaking below the lower extremity suggesting a downtrend. Using a higher Window Size value will return longer-term indications.
The "Clusters" setting allows users to control how easy it is for the price to break an extremity, with higher values returning extremities further away from the price.
The "Denoise Channels" is enabled by default and allows to see less noisy extremities that are more coherent with the detected trend.
Users who wish to have more focus on a detected trend can display the indicator as a trailing stop.
🔹 Centroid Dispersion Areas
Each extremity is made of one area. The width of each area indicates how spread values within a cluster are around their centroids. A wider area would suggest that prices within a cluster are more spread out around their centroid, as such one could say that it is indicative of the volatility of a cluster.
Wider areas around a specific extremity can indicate a larger and more spread-out amount of prices within the associated cluster. In practice price entering an area has a higher chance to break an associated extremity.
🔶 DETAILS
The indicator performs K-means clustering over the most recent Window Size prices, finding a number of user-specified clusters. See here to find more information on cluster detection.
The channel extremities are returned as the centroid of the lowest, average, and highest price clusters.
K-means clustering can be computationally expensive and as such we allow users to determine the maximum number of iterations used to find the centroids as well as the number of most historical bars to perform the indicator calculation. Do note that increasing the calculation window of the indicator as well as the number of clusters will return slower results.
🔶 SETTINGS
Window Size: Amount of most recent prices to use for the calculation of the indicator.
Clusters": Amount of clusters detected for the calculation of the indicator.
Denoise Channels: When enabled, return less noisy channels extremities, disabling this setting will return the exact centroids at each time but will produce less regular extremities.
As Trailing Stop: Display the indicator as a trailing stop.
🔹 Optimization
This group of settings affects the runtime performance of the script.
Maximum Iteration Steps: Maximum number of iterations allowed for finding centroids. Excessively low values can return a better script load time but poor clustering.
Historical Bars Calculation: Calculation window of the script (in bars).
IKH Cloud V1.0 (nextSignals)The IKH Cloud V1.0 (nextSignals) is an Ichomoku-type indicator that can be used for various trading strategies. It's based on a ThinkScript study from @stephenharlinmd (aka nextSignals) that uses an instantaneous moving average as the base MA, and a custom trailing stop. Both of these components form the cloud.
Indicator Components and Calculation
The indicator comprises two key components:
Instantaneous Moving Average (IMA) : This is a type of moving average that places a greater weight on the most recent data points, and is based on Ehler's book "Rocket Science for Traders". This is slightly different from the Doc's original, but is very approximate.
Trailing Stop : This component helps determine the stop loss level that moves along with the price. The trailing stop is based on the highest high and the lowest low of the last 5 bars, as well as the simple moving averages of the low and high of the previous bar. The trailing stop is calculated separately for each condition: when the bar index is greater than 1 and when the previous 'a' variable is either 1 or 0.
These two components are used to create a filled area on the chart, also known as the 'cloud'. The color of the cloud and the candlesticks change based on the relative positions of the IMA and the trailing stop.
How to Use the Indicator
The following are just ideas on how to use this indicator, and is not financial advice in any form:
Trend Identification: When the IMA is above the trailing stop (cloud), it indicates an uptrend, and when it's below, it indicates a downtrend.
Entry/Exit Signals: Traders can consider going long when the candlesticks move above the cloud and short when they move below the cloud.
Stop Loss Level: The trailing stop line (the cloud's edge) can serve as a dynamic stop loss level.
Please don't use just this indicator on its own. Please use this in conjunction with other analysis tools, indicators, and systems you already have in place. Always consider the overall market context and use appropriate risk management strategies.
MarketStructureLibrary "MarketStructure"
This library contains functions for identifying Lows and Highs in a rule-based way, and deriving useful information from them.
f_simpleLowHigh()
This function finds Local Lows and Highs, but NOT in order. A Local High is any candle that has its Low taken out on close by a subsequent candle (and vice-versa for Local Lows).
The Local High does NOT have to be the candle with the highest High out of recent candles. It does NOT have to be a Williams High. It is not necessarily a swing high or a reversal or anything else.
It doesn't have to be "the" high, so don't be confused.
By the rules, Local Lows and Highs must alternate. In this function they do not, so I'm calling them Simple Lows and Highs.
Simple Highs and Lows, by the above definition, can be useful for entries and stops. Because I intend to use them for stops, I want them all, not just the ones that alternate in strict order.
@param - there are no parameters. The function uses the chart OHLC.
@returns boolean values for whether this bar confirms a Simple Low/High, and ints for the bar_index of that Low/High.
f_localLowHigh()
This function finds Local Lows and Highs, in order. A Local High is any candle that has its Low taken out on close by a subsequent candle (and vice-versa for Local Lows).
The Local High does NOT have to be the candle with the highest High out of recent candles. It does NOT have to be a Williams High. It is not necessarily a swing high or a reversal or anything else.
By the rules, Local Lows and Highs must alternate, and in this function they do.
@param - there are no parameters. The function uses the chart OHLC.
@returns boolean values for whether this bar confirms a Local Low/High, and ints for the bar_index of that Low/High.
f_enhancedSimpleLowHigh()
This function finds Local Lows and Highs, but NOT in order. A Local High is any candle that has its Low taken out on close by a subsequent candle (and vice-versa for Local Lows).
The Local High does NOT have to be the candle with the highest High out of recent candles. It does NOT have to be a Williams High. It is not necessarily a swing high or a reversal or anything else.
By the rules, Local Lows and Highs must alternate. In this function they do not, so I'm calling them Simple Lows and Highs.
Simple Highs and Lows, by the above definition, can be useful for entries and stops. Because I intend to use them for trailing stops, I want them all, not just the ones that alternate in strict order.
The difference between this function and f_simpleLowHigh() is that it also tracks the lowest/highest recent level. This level can be useful for trailing stops.
In effect, these are like more "normal" highs and lows that you would pick by eye, but confirmed faster in many cases than by waiting for the low/high of that particular candle to be taken out on close,
because they are instead confirmed by ANY subsequent candle having its low/high exceeded. Hence, I call these Enhanced Simple Lows/Highs.
The levels are taken from the extreme highs/lows, but the bar indexes are given for the candles that were actually used to confirm the Low/High.
This is by design, because it might be misleading to label the extreme, since we didn't use that candle to confirm the Low/High..
@param - there are no parameters. The function uses the chart OHLC.
@returns - boolean values for whether this bar confirms an Enhanced Simple Low/High
ints for the bar_index of that Low/High
floats for the values of the recent high/low levels
floats for the trailing high/low levels (for debug/post-processing)
bools for market structure bias
f_trueLowHigh()
This function finds True Lows and Highs.
A True High is the candle with the highest recent high, which then has its low taken out on close by a subsequent candle (and vice-versa for True Lows).
The difference between this and an Enhanced High is that confirmation requires not just any Simple High, but confirmation of the very candle that has the highest high.
Because of this, confirmation is often later, and multiple Simple Highs and Lows can develop within ranges formed by a single big candle without any of them being confirmed. This is by design.
A True High looks like the intuitive "real high" when you look at the chart. True Lows and Highs must alternate.
@param - there are no parameters. The function uses the chart OHLC.
@returns - boolean values for whether this bar confirms an Enhanced Simple Low/High
ints for the bar_index of that Low/High
floats for the values of the recent high/low levels
floats for the trailing high/low levels (for debug/post-processing)
bools for market structure bias
Bjorgum Double Tap█ OVERVIEW
Double Tap is a pattern recognition script aimed at detecting Double Tops and Double Bottoms. Double Tap can be applied to the broker emulator to observe historical results, run as a trading bot for live trade alerts in real time with entry signals, take profit, and stop orders, or to simply detect patterns.
█ CONCEPTS
How Is A Pattern Defined?
Doubles are technical formations that are both reversal patterns and breakout patterns. These formations typically have a distinctive “M” or a “W” shape with price action breaking beyond the neckline formed by the center of the pattern. They can be recognized when a pivot fails to break when tested for a second time and the retracement that follows breaks beyond the key level opposite. This can trap entrants that were playing in the direction of the prior trend. Entries are made on the breakout with a target projected beyond the neckline equal to the height of the pattern.
Pattern Recognition
Patterns are recognized through the use of zig-zag; a method of filtering price action by connecting swing highs and lows in an alternating fashion to establish trend, support and resistance, or derive shapes from price action. The script looks for the highest or lowest point in a given number of bars and updates a list with the values as they form. If the levels are exceeded, the values are updated. If the direction changes and a new significant point is made, a new point is added to the list and the process starts again. Meanwhile, we scan the list of values looking for the distinctive shape to form as previously described.
█ STRATEGY RESULTS
Back Testing
Historical back testing is the most common method to test a strategy due in part to the general ease of gathering quick results. The underlying theory is that any strategy that worked well in the past is likely to work well in the future, and conversely, any strategy that performed poorly in the past is likely to perform poorly in the future. It is easy to poke holes in this theory, however, as for one to accept it as gospel, one would have to assume that future results will match what has come to pass. The randomness of markets may see to it otherwise, so it is important to scrutinize results. Some commonly used methods are to compare to other markets or benchmarks, perform statistical analysis on the results over many iterations and on differing datasets, walk-forward testing, out-of-sample analysis, or a variety of other techniques. There are many ways to interpret the results, so it is important to do research and gain knowledge in the field prior to taking meaningful conclusions from them.
👉 In short, it would be naive to place trust in one good backtest and expect positive results to continue. For this reason, results have been omitted from this publication.
Repainting
Repainting is simply the difference in behaviour of a strategy in real time vs the results calculated on the historical dataset. The strategy, by default, will wait for confirmed signals and is thus designed to not repaint. Waiting for bar close for entires aligns results in the real time data feed to those calculated on historical bars, which contain far less data. By doing this we align the behaviour of the strategy on the 2 data types, which brings significance to the calculated results. To override this behaviour and introduce repainting one can select "Recalculate on every tick" from the properties tab. It is important to note that by doing this alerts may not align with results seen in the strategy tester when the chart is reloaded, and thus to do so is to forgo backtesting and restricts a strategy to forward testing only.
👉 It is possible to use this script as an indicator as opposed to a full strategy by disabling "Use Strategy" in the "Inputs" tab. Basic alerts for detection will be sent when patterns are detected as opposed to complex order syntax. For alerts mid-bar enable "Recalculate on every tick" , and for confirmed signals ensure it is disabled.
█ EXIT ORDERS
Limit and Stop Orders
By default, the strategy will place a stop loss at the invalidation point of the pattern. This point is beyond the pattern high in the case of Double Tops, or beneath the pattern low in the case of Double Bottoms. The target or take profit point is an equal-legs measurement, or 100% of the pattern height in the direction of the pattern bias. Both the stop and the limit level can be adjusted from the user menu as a percentage of the pattern height.
Trailing Stops
Optional from the menu is the implementation of an ATR based trailing stop. The trailing stop is designed to begin when the target projection is reached. From there, the script looks back a user-defined number of bars for the highest or lowest point +/- the ATR value. For tighter stops the user can look back a lesser number of bars, or decrease the ATR multiple. When using either Alertatron or Trading Connector, each change in the trail value will trigger an alert to update the stop order on the exchange to reflect the new trail price. This reduces latency and slippage that can occur when relying on alerts only as real exchange orders fill faster and remain in place in the event of a disruption in communication between your strategy and the exchange, which ensures a higher level of safety.
👉 It is important to note that in the case the trailing stop is enabled, limit orders are excluded from the exit criteria. Rather, the point in time that the limit value is exceeded is the point that the trail begins. As such, this method will exit by stop loss only.
█ ALERTS
Five Built-in 3rd Party Destinations
The following are five options for delivering alerts from Double Tap to live trade execution via third party API solutions or chat bots to share your trades on social media. These destinations can be selected from the input menu and alert syntax will automatically configure in alerts appropriately to manage trades.
Custom JSON
JSON, or JavaScript Object Notation, is a readable format for structuring data. It is used primarily to transmit data between a server and a web application. In regards to this script, this may be a custom intermediary web application designed to catch alerts and interface with an exchange API. The JSON message is a trade map for an application to read equipped with where its been, where its going, targets, stops, quantity; a full diagnostic of the current state and its previous state. A web application could be configured to follow the messages sent in this format and conduct trades in sync with alerts running on the TV server.
Below is an example of a rendered JSON alert:
{
"passphrase": "1234",
"time": "2022-05-01T17:50:05Z",
"ticker": "ETHUSDTPERP",
"plot": {
"stop_price": 2600.15,
"limit_price": 3100.45
},
"strategy": {
"position_size": 0.1,
"order_action": "buy",
"market_position": "long",
"market_position_size": 0,
"prev_market_position": "flat",
"prev_market_position_size": 0
}
}
Trading Connector
Trading Connector is a third party fully autonomous Chrome extension designed to catch alert webhooks from TradingView and interface with MT4/MT5 to execute live trades from your machine. Alerts to Trading Connector are simple; just select the destination from the input drop down menu, set your ticker in the "TC Ticker" box in the "Alert Strings" section and enter your URL in the alert window when configuring your alert.
Alertatron
Alertatron is an automated algo platform for cryptocurrency trading that is designed to automate your trading strategies. Although the platform is currently restricted to crypto, it offers a versatile interface with high flexibility syntax for complex market orders and conditions. To direct alerts to Alertatron, select the platform from the 3rd party drop down, configure your API key in the ”Alertatron Key” box and add your URL in the alert message box when making alerts.
3 Commas
3 Commas is an easy and quick to use click-and-go third party crypto API solution. Alerts are simple without overly complex syntax. Messages are simply pasted into alerts and executed as alerts are triggered. There are 4 boxes at the bottom of the "Inputs" tab where the appropriate messages to be placed. These messages can be copied from 3 Commas after the bots are set up and pasted directly into the settings menu. Remember to select 3 Commas as a destination from the third party drop down and place the appropriate URL in the alert message window.
Discord
Some may wish to share their trades with their friends in a Discord chat via webhook chat bot. Messages are configured to notify of the pattern type with targets and stop values. A bot can be configured through the integration menu in a Discord chat to which you have appropriate access. Select Discord from the 3rd party drop down menu and place your chat bot URL in the alert message window when configuring alerts.
👉 For further information regarding alert setup, refer to the platform specific instructions given by the chosen third party provider.
█ IMPORTANT NOTES
Setting Alerts
For alert messages to be properly delivered on order fills it is necessary to place the following placeholder in the alert message box when creating an alert.
{{strategy.order.alert_message}}
This placeholder will auto-populate the alert message with the appropriate syntax that is designated for the 3rd party selected in the user menu.
Order Sizing and Commissions
The values that are sent in alert messages are populated from live metrics calculated by the strategy. This means that the actual values in the "Properties" tab are used and must be set by the user. The initial capital, order size, commission, etc. are all used in the calculations, so it is important to set these prior to executing live trades. Be sure to set the commission to the values used by the exchange as well.
👉 It is important to understand that the calculations on the account size take place from the beginning of the price history of the strategy. This means that if historical results have inflated or depleted the account size from the beginning of trade history until now, the values sent in alerts will reflect the calculated size based on the inputs in the "Properties" tab. To start fresh, the user must set the date in the "Inputs" tab to the current date as to remove trades from the trade history. Failure to follow this instruction can result in an unexpected order size being sent in the alert.
█ FOR PINECODERS
• With the recent introduction of matrices in Pine, the script utilizes a matrix to track pivot points with the bars they occurred on, while tracking if that pivot has been traded against to prevent duplicate detections after a trade is exited.
• Alert messages are populated with placeholders ; capability that previously was only possible in alertcondition() , but has recently been extended to `strategy.*()` functions for use in the `alert_message` argument. This allows delivery of live trade values to populate in strategy alert messages.
• New arguments have been added to strategy.exit() , which allow differentiated messages to be sent based on whether the exit occurred at the stop or the limit. The new arguments used in this script are `alert_profit` and `alert_loss` to send messages to Discord
Stoploss indicatorGood for setting trailing stops and stoplosses when your taking a scalp etc, most recommended for manual trailing stops
Adaptive CE-VWAP Breakout Framework [KedArc Quant]Description
A structured framework that unites three complementary systems into one charting engine:
Chandelier Exit (CE) – ATR-based trailing logic that defines trend direction, stop placement, and risk/reward overlays.
Swing-Anchored VWAP (SWAV) – a dynamically anchored VWAP that re-starts from each confirmed swing and adapts its smoothness to volatility.
Pivot S/R with Volume Breaks – confirmed horizontal levels with alerts when broken on expanding volume.
This script builds a single workflow for bias → trigger → managementwithout mixing unrelated indicators. Each module is internally linked rather than layered cosmetically, making it a true analytical framework—not.
Acknowledgment
Special thanks to Dynamic Swing Anchored VWAP by Zeiierman, whose swing-anchoring concept inspired a part of the SWAV module’s implementation and adaptation logic.
Support and Resistance Levels with Breaks by LuxAlgo for S/R breakout logic.
How this helps traders
Trend clarity – CE color-codes direction and provides evolving stops.
Context value – SWAV traces adaptive mean paths so traders see where price is heavy or light.
Action filter – Pivot+volume logic highlights true structural breaks, filtering false moves.
Discipline tool – Optional R:R boxes visualize risk and target zones to enforce planning.
Entry / Exit guidelines (for study purposes only)
Bias Use CE direction: green = long bias red = short bias
Entry
1. Breakout method– Trade in CE direction when a pivot level breaks on valid volume.
2. VWAP confirmation– Prefer breaks occurring around the nearest SWAV path (fair-value cross or re-test).
Exit
Stop = CE line / recent swing HL / ATR × (multiplier)
Target = R-multiple × risk (default 2 R)
Optional live update keeps SL/TP aligned with current CE state.
Core formula concepts
ATR Stop: Stop = High/Low – ATR × multiplier
VWAP calc: Σ(price × vol) / Σ(vol) anchored at swing pivot, adapted by APT (Adaptive Price Tracking) ratio ∝ ATR volatility.
Volume oscillator: 100 × (EMA₅ – EMA₁₀)/EMA₁₀; valid break when threshold %.

TFRSI & RSI Analog Dial [CHE] TFRSI & RSI Analog Dial — Interactive analog visualization for TFRSI or RSI with gradient zones, radial markers, and a trailing hand pointer.
Summary
This indicator renders an interactive analog dial for either TFRSI or standard RSI, providing a visual gauge with gradient-filled zones for oversold, neutral, and overbought regions. The hand pointer tracks the current value, with optional trailing dots at recent positions to show momentum direction. Radial lines mark key thresholds, and a digital readout displays the exact value. This design enhances readability over linear plots by leveraging familiar clock-like intuition, reducing cognitive load during quick scans. Signals are robust due to clamping to safe bounds and mode-specific scaling, ensuring consistent display across different volatility regimes.
Motivation: Why this design?
Traditional linear RSI or momentum indicators often feel abstract, especially in fast-paced screening where users scan multiple assets. Sharp swings can make thresholds hard to gauge at a glance, leading to missed nuances in overbought or oversold conditions. This dial addresses that by mapping values to a curved scale with color gradients, making extremes visually pop while the hand's trail hints at recent path without cluttering the chart. The dual-mode support allows seamless switching between advanced momentum (TFRSI) and classic RSI, fitting diverse strategies without reloading scripts.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
- Baseline reference: Diverges from linear plotlines like the built-in RSI oscillator, which stacks values vertically and relies on horizontal lines for thresholds.
- Architecture differences:
- Curved projection with perspective tilt for depth illusion, using polyline arcs instead of straight plots.
- Mode-aware clamping and scaling to handle TFRSI's extended range versus RSI's standard bounds.
- Persistent trail array for hand history, capped at three points to avoid performance drag.
- Gradient segmentation for smooth zone transitions, rendered via multiple thin polylines.
- Practical effect: Charts show a compact, rotatable dial that fits in pane corners, with colors intuitively signaling bias (lime for buy zones, red for sell). The trail adds qualitative flow without numerical overload, helping spot divergences faster than static bars.
How it works (technical)
The indicator first computes the selected metric: for TFRSI, it processes price accelerations through a multi-step filter involving differencing, exponential damping, and normalization to a centered scale; for RSI, it uses the standard gain-loss ratio over the specified period. The value is then clamped between mode-specific minimum and maximum bounds to prevent display overflow.
This clamped value drives the hand angle on a 300-degree arc, projected from a 3D-like model rotated for perspective. Arcs for zones are built as segmented polylines, with colors interpolated linearly across the gradient. Key levels are drawn as radial lines from inner to outer radius, colored by zone. The trail maintains up to three prior angles in an array, updated only on confirmed bars to avoid repainting, and rendered as sized dots fading from small to large.
Initialization seeds filter states to zero on first bar, with persistent variables holding smoothing history. Data flows from price to metric computation, clamping, angle mapping, and projection—all executed globally on the last bar for redraw efficiency.
Parameter Guide
Mode — Switches between TFRSI (extended momentum gauge) and RSI (classic oscillator); affects bounds, zones, and labels. Default: "TFRSI". Trade-offs: TFRSI adds sensitivity to accelerations but may amplify noise; RSI is more stable for trend confirmation.
Dial Size — Sets radius in pixels, scaling all elements proportionally. Default: 200. Bounds: 50–500. Tips: Larger for detailed views, smaller for multi-pane layouts; auto-scales hand length to match.
Dial Vertical Offset — Shifts entire dial up/down in pixels. Default: 0. Bounds: -200–200. Trade-offs: Negative pulls toward price action; positive spaces below—use to avoid overlap.
Camera Angle — Tilts view from top-down (0) to side (90) for 3D effect. Default: 45. Bounds: 0–90. Tips: Steeper angles emphasize depth but compress horizontally; flat for precision.
Resolution — Polygon sides for smooth arcs. Default: 64. Bounds: 4–64. Trade-offs: Higher reduces jaggedness but increases draw calls—balance with pane zoom.
TFRSI Hand Length — Base pointer length at 200px dial, auto-scaled. Default: 170. Bounds: 10–200. Tips: Longer for emphasis in large dials; shorter avoids edge clipping.
Show TFRSI Hand — Toggles pointer visibility. Default: true. Trade-offs: Off for clean zones only; on for value tracking.
Show Hand Trail Dots — Displays 3 fading dots at recent tips. Default: true. Trade-offs: Adds motion context but may clutter static views—disable in alerts.
TFRSI Hand Color — Pointer hue, used for trail dots too. Default: 7E57C2. Tips: Match strategy theme; gradients auto-blend to zones.
Dial Base Color — Arc outline/fill tint. Default: blue. Trade-offs: Opaque for contrast; transparent blends with background.
Neutral Color (50) — Mid-zone shade. Default: gray. Tips: Neutral tones reduce bias in balanced markets.
Oversold Color — Low-zone fill. Default: lime. Trade-offs: Bright for alerts; muted for subtlety.
Overbought Color — High-zone fill. Default: red. Trade-offs: As above—pair with hand blending.
Label Size — Text scaling for thresholds. Default: "normal". Options: tiny/small/normal/large/huge. Tips: Smaller for dense charts; larger for presentations.
Digital TFRSI Size — Readout font. Default: "large". Options: as above. Trade-offs: Balances visibility without dominating dial.
Digital Vertical Offset — Readout position shift. Default: -50. Bounds: -200–200. Tips: Negative centers above dial; adjust for multi-indicators.
TFRSI Length — Core lookback for accelerations. Default: 6. Min: 1. Trade-offs: Shorter heightens reactivity, risks whipsaws; longer smooths extremes.
TFRSI Trigger Length — Final smoothing passes. Default: 2. Min: 1. Tips: Increase for fewer false crosses; decrease for quicker pivots.
RSI Length — Period for gain-loss averaging. Default: 14. Min: 1. Trade-offs: Classic 14 balances; shorter for scalps, longer for swings.
Reading & Interpretation
The dial arcs sweep from overbought (right, red) through neutral (top, gray) to oversold (left, lime), with the hand pointing to the current value—clockwise for rising, counterclockwise for falling. Trail dots grow larger toward the present, colored to match hand zones, indicating recent direction without numbers. Threshold lines thicken at center (50) for quick zeroing; labels confirm levels. Digital readout below shows precise value prefixed by mode. Hand color gradients from neutral to extremes signal building pressure verbally: deepening red warns of potential pullbacks, brightening lime suggests bounces.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
Trend following: Enter long when hand crosses above 50 from oversold trail; confirm with higher highs in price structure. Filter shorts below 50 in downtrends using volume spikes.
Exits/Stops: Trail stops to recent dot positions in overbought; tighten on red gradients exceeding thresholds. Conservative: Exit at neutral; aggressive: Hold to extremes if trail aligns with momentum.
Multi-asset/Multi-TF: Defaults suit forex/stocks on 1H–4H; for crypto, shorten lengths by 20% for volatility. Stack with HTF security calls (e.g., daily mode on 15m chart) for confluence—watch for alignment across dials.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Closed-bar updates ensure no repainting; live bars show provisional hand/trail, confirmed on close. No security or HTF calls, so zero lookahead bias. Resources: Caps at 500 lines/labels/polylines, rebuilds only on last bar; max_bars_back=2000 handles history without lag. Known limits: Trail may stutter in flat markets; gradients approximate smooth fills via segments, visible at low resolution.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Start with TFRSI mode, length=6, trigger=2 for responsive momentum on daily charts. Too choppy? Bump trigger to 4 for stability. Lagging entries? Drop length to 4, watch for overreactions. For RSI trend filter, set length=21; combine with MA cross for entries when dial nears 30/70.
What this indicator is—and isn’t
This is a visualization layer for momentum gauges, aiding quick bias assessment and threshold spotting. Pair it with price action, volume, and risk rules for decisions. It’s not a standalone signal generator or predictive tool—values reflect past data, prone to whipsaws in ranging conditions.

Julius Single TrailJulius Single Trail — How it works
This indicator combines a Kalman-like smoothed Donchian midline with an ATR-style volatility buffer to create a single adaptive trailing line that flips with trend. It also recolors candles to reflect regime and visually marks ranging conditions using Bollinger Band width. Optionally, it adds a dotted price line and can hide default candles for a clean, unified look.
Core logic
Donchian midpoint: Calculates the middle of the highest high and lowest low over Donchian Length. This is the directional anchor.
Kalman-like smoothing: Applies a lightweight exponential update to the Donchian midpoint using Alpha, reducing noise while staying responsive.
Volatility buffer: Uses RMA of True Range over Volatility Length multiplied by Volatility Multiplier to form an adaptive offset around the smoothed midline.
Dynamic trail:
Up-trend regime (regime = 1): The trail is kMid - offset and only ratchets upward (math.max), acting like a long stop.
Down-trend regime (regime = -1): The trail is kMid + offset and only ratchets downward (math.min), acting like a short stop.
Flip conditions: Regime flips only when price is on the far side of both the smoothed midpoint and the current trail:
Flip to down when close < kMid and close < dynTrail
Flip to up when close > kMid and close > dynTrail
Candle styling:
Wick color shows immediate price direction (green for bullish, red for bearish).
Body color follows the trail’s regime (Uptrend Color or Downtrend Color).
In ranging conditions, all candle elements turn gray.
Ranging detection:
Computes Bollinger Bands on close with BB Length and BB Multiplier.
Calculates width as a percentage of the basis. If width% (optionally smoothed) is below Range Threshold %, candles are gray to signal consolidation.
What it plots
Dynamic Trail: A single, thick line that changes color by regime:
Uptrend: Uptrend Color (default lime)
Downtrend: Downtrend Color (default red)
Optional Trail Fill to Close: A translucent band between the trail and the close (disabled by default).
Optional Dotted Price Line: A dotted horizontal line at the current price (toggle via Show Dotted Price Line).
Candle treatment:
You can hide default candles (Hide Default Candles), then use a separate custom-candle script for wick/body/border mapping. In this script, default candles can be made fully transparent to let the trail and colors dominate.
Inputs
Donchian Length: Window for the highest/lowest used to form the midline.
Kalman Alpha 0–1: Smoothing factor for the midline. Higher = more responsive, lower = smoother.
Volatility Length: RMA length of True Range for the volatility buffer.
Volatility Multiplier: Scales the buffer around the midline. Higher widens the trail, reducing flips.
Uptrend Color / Downtrend Color: Trail and body color by regime.
Show Cloud To Close: Fills between price and trail using the trail’s color.
Hide Default Candles: Makes the native candles fully transparent.
Show Dotted Price Line / Price Line Color: Toggles and colors the dotted price line.
Ranging parameters:
BB Length (Ranging) and BB Multiplier (Ranging): Bollinger Band settings.
Range Threshold %: If BB width% < threshold, candles turn gray to indicate range.
Use Smoothed Width / Width Smoothing Length: Smooths BB width% before comparison.
Signals and interpretation
Regime shifts:
Bullish flip: When price closes above both the smoothed midpoint and the current trail. Trail switches to the lower band (kMid - offset) and ratchets up.
Bearish flip: When price closes below both the smoothed midpoint and the current trail. Trail switches to the upper band (kMid + offset) and ratchets down.
Trend bias:
Green trail/body: Favor long bias; trail can serve as a dynamic stop.
Red trail/body: Favor short bias; trail can serve as a dynamic stop.
Ranging filter:
Gray candles: Lower-probability trend continuation; consider reducing position sizing, waiting for a breakout, or using mean-reversion tactics.
How to use it
Trend following:
Enter in the direction of the regime when flips occur or on pullbacks that respect the trail.
Use the trail as a stop-loss guide: exit when price closes beyond the trail and the regime flips.
Range awareness:
When candles turn gray, avoid trend entries or switch to range tactics. Wait for color to return and a clean flip.
Tuning suggestions:
Faster, more responsive: Lower Donchian Length, increase Alpha, lower Volatility Length and/or Volatility Multiplier.
Smoother, fewer flips: Increase Donchian Length, decrease Alpha, increase Volatility Length and/or Volatility Multiplier.
Ranging strictness: Increase Range Threshold % to mark ranges more often; smooth the width to avoid choppiness.
Example settings
Swing trading:
Donchian Length: 50
Alpha: 0.25
Vol Length: 14
Vol Mult: 1.6
BB Length: 20, BB Mult: 2.0, Range Threshold %: 2.0, Smoothed width ON (20)
Intraday (more responsive):
Donchian Length: 20–30
Alpha: 0.4–0.6
Vol Length: 10–14
Vol Mult: 1.2–1.6
Range Threshold %: 1.5–2.5 depending on instrument
Alerts (suggested)
Regime flips:
Condition: close > dynTrail and close > kMid -> Alert: Bullish regime
Condition: close < dynTrail and close < kMid -> Alert: Bearish regime
Range state:
Condition: BB width% < threshold -> Alert: Ranging
You can wire these using alertcondition() on the flip conditions and isRange variable inside the script.
Notes and limitations
This is a single-side ratcheting trail per regime, designed to reduce whipsaw by requiring price to clear both the midpoint and the trail before flipping.
Like all trend tools, it can lag tops/bottoms and may chop in low-volatility, sideways markets.
For assets with highly irregular volatility, retune Volatility Multiplier and Range Threshold %.
Short description (for header):
Adaptive, single-line trailing stop based on Kalman-smoothed Donchian mid + ATR-style buffer. Colors candles by regime, grays out ranges via BB width. Optional price line and cloud.
If you want, I can add alertcondition() for the flip and range events and a light custom-candle overlay so you can publish with built-in alert templates and consistent candle styling.
HTF Cross Breakout [CHE] HTF Cross Breakout — Detects higher timeframe close crossovers for breakout signals, anchors VWAP for trend validation, and flags continuations or traps with visual extensions for delta percent and stop levels.
Summary
This indicator spots moments when the current chart's close price crosses a higher timeframe close, marking potential breakouts only when the current bar shows directional strength. It anchors a volume-weighted average price line from the breakout point to track trend health, updating labels to show if the move continues or reverses into a trap. Extensions add a dotted line linking the breakout level to the current close with percent change display, plus a stop-loss marker at the VWAP end. Signals gain robustness from higher timeframe confirmation and anti-repainting options, reducing noise in live bars compared to simple crossover tools.
Motivation: Why this design?
Traders often face false breakouts from intrabar wiggles on lower timeframes, especially without higher timeframe alignment, leading to whipsaws in volatile sessions. This design uses higher timeframe close as a stable reference for crossover detection, combined with anchored volume weighting to gauge sustained momentum. It addresses these by enforcing bar confirmation and directional filters, providing clearer entry validation and risk points without overcomplicating the chart.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
Reference baseline
Standard crossover indicators like moving average crosses operate solely on the chart timeframe, ignoring higher timeframe context and lacking volume anchoring.
Architecture differences
- Higher timeframe data pulls via security calls with optional repainting control for stability.
- Anchored VWAP resets at each signal, accumulating from the breakout bar only.
- Label dynamics update in real-time for continuation checks, with extensions for visual delta and stop computation.
- Event-driven line finalization prunes old elements after a set bar extension.
Practical effect
Charts show persistent lines and labels that extend live but finalize cleanly on new events, avoiding clutter. This matters for spotting trap reversals early via label color shifts, and extensions provide quick risk visuals without manual calculations, improving decision speed in trend trades.
How it works (technical)
The indicator first determines a higher timeframe based on user selection, pulling its close price securely. It checks for crossovers or crossunders of the current close against this higher close, but only triggers on confirmed bars with matching directional opens and closes. On a valid event, a horizontal line and label mark the higher close level, while a dashed VWAP line starts accumulating typical price times volume from that bar onward. During the active phase, the breakout line extends to the current bar, the label repositions and updates text based on whether the current close holds above or below the level for bulls or bears. A background tint warns if the close deviates adversely from the current VWAP. Extensions draw a vertical dotted line at the last bar between the breakout level and close, placing a midpoint label with percent difference; separately, a label at the VWAP end shows a computed stop price. Persistent variables track the active state and accumulators, resetting on new events after briefly extending old elements. Repaint risk from security calls is mitigated by confirmed bar gating or user opt-in.
Parameter Guide
Plateau Length (reserved for future, currently unused): Sets a length for potential plateau detection in extensions; default 3, minimum 1. Higher values would increase stability but are not active yet—leave at default to avoid tuning.
Line Width: Controls thickness of breakout, VWAP, and extension lines; default 2, range 1 to 5. Thicker lines improve visibility on busy charts but may obscure price action—use 1 for clean views, 3 or more for emphasis.
+Bars after next HTF event (finalize old, then delete): Extends old lines and labels by this many bars before deletion on new signals; default 20, minimum 0. Shorter extensions keep charts tidy but risk cutting visuals prematurely; longer aids review but builds clutter over time.
Evaluate label only on HTF close (prevents gray traps intrabar): When true, label updates wait for higher timeframe confirmation; default true. Enabling reduces intrabar flips for stabler signals, though it may delay feedback—disable for faster live trading at repaint cost.
Allow Repainting: Permits real-time security data without confirmation offset; default false. False ensures historical accuracy but lags live bars; true speeds updates but can repaint on HTF closes.
Timeframe Type: Chooses HTF method—Auto Timeframe (dynamic steps up), Multiplier (chart multiple), or Manual (fixed string); default Auto Timeframe. Auto adapts to chart scale for convenience; Multiplier suits custom scaling like 5 times current; Manual for precise like 1D on any chart.
Multiplier for Alternate Resolution: Scales chart timeframe when Multiplier type selected; default 5, minimum 1. Values near 1 mimic current resolution for subtle shifts; higher like 10 jumps to broader context, increasing signal rarity.
Manual Resolution: Direct timeframe string like 60 for 1H when Manual type; default 60. Match to trading horizon—shorter for swing, longer for positional—to balance frequency and reliability.
Show Extension 1: Toggles dotted line and delta percent label between breakout level and current close; default true. Disable to simplify for basic use, enable for precise momentum tracking.
Dotted Line Width: Thickness for Extension 1 line; default 2, range 1 to 5. Align with main Line Width for consistency.
Text Size: Size for delta percent label; options tiny, small, normal, large; default normal. Smaller reduces overlap on dense charts; larger aids glance reads.
Decimals for Δ%: Precision in percent change display; default 2, range 0 to 6. Fewer decimals speed reading; more suit low-volatility assets.
Positive Δ Color: Hue for upward percent changes; default lime. Choose contrasting for visibility.
Negative Δ Color: Hue for downward percent changes; default red. Pair with positive for quick polarity scan.
Dotted Line Color: Color for Extension 1 line; default gray. Neutral tones blend well; brighter for emphasis.
Background Transparency (0..100): Opacity for delta label background; default 90. Higher values fade for subtlety; lower solidifies for readability.
Show Extension 2: Toggles stop-loss label at VWAP end; default true. Turn off for entry focus only.
Stop Method: Percent from VWAP end or fixed ticks; options Percent, Ticks; default Percent. Percent scales with price levels; Ticks suits tick-based instruments.
Stop %: Distance as fraction of VWAP for Percent method; default 1.0, step 0.05, minimum 0.0. Tighter like 0.5 reduces risk but increases stops; wider like 2.0 allows breathing room.
Stop Ticks: Tick count offset for Ticks method; default 20, minimum 0. Adjust per asset volatility—fewer for tight control.
Price Decimals: Rounding for stop price text; default 4, range 0 to 10. Match syminfo.precision for clean display.
Text Size: Size for stop label; options tiny, small, normal, large; default normal. Scale to chart zoom.
Text Color: Foreground for stop text; default white. Ensure contrast with background.
Inherit VWAP Color (BG tint): Bases stop label background on VWAP hue; default true. True maintains theme; false allows custom black base.
BG Transparency (0..100): Opacity for stop label background; default 0. Zero for no tint; up to 100 for full fade.
Reading & Interpretation
Breakout lines appear green for bullish crosses or red for bearish, extending live until a new event finalizes them briefly then deletes. Labels start blank, updating to Bull Cont. or Bear Cont. in matching colors if holding the level, or gray Bull Trap/Bear Trap on reversal. VWAP dashes yellow for bulls, orange for bears, sloping with accumulated volume weight—deviations trigger faint red background warnings. Extension 1's dotted vertical shows at the last bar, with midpoint label green/red for positive/negative percent from breakout to close. Extension 2 places a left-aligned label at VWAP end with stop price and method note, tinted to VWAP for context.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
For trend following, enter long on green Bull Cont. labels above VWAP with higher highs confirmation, filtering via rising structure; short on red Bear Cont. below. Pair with volume surges or RSI above 50 for bulls to avoid traps. For exits, trail stops using the Extension 2 level, tightening on warnings or gray labels—aggressive on continuations, conservative post-trap. In multi-timeframe setups, use default Auto on 15m charts for 1H signals, scaling multiplier to 4 for daily context on hourly; test on forex/stocks where volume is reliable, avoiding low-liquidity assets.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Signals confirm on bar close with HTF gating when strict mode active, but live bars may update if repainting enabled—opt false for backtest fidelity, true for intraday speed. Security calls risk minor repaints on HTF closes, mitigated by confirmation offsets. Resources cap at 1000 bars back, 50 lines/labels total, with event prunes to stay under budgets—no loops, minimal arrays. Limits include VWAP lag in low-volume periods and dependency on accurate HTF data; gaps or holidays may skew anchors.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Defaults suit 5m-1H charts on liquid assets: Auto HTF, no repaint, 1% stops. For choppy markets with excess signals, enable strict eval and bump multiplier to 10 for rarer triggers. If sluggish in trends, shorten extend bars to 10 and allow repainting for quicker visuals. On high-vol like crypto, widen stop % to 2.0 and use Ticks method; for stables like indices, tighten to 0.5% and keep Percent.
