RSI Average Swing BotThis is a modified RSI version using as a source a big length(50 candles) and an average of all types of sources for candle calculations such as ohlc4, close, high, open, hlc3 and hl2.
In this case we are going to use a 0-1 scale for an easier calculation, where 0.5 is going to be our middle point.
Above 0.5 we consider a bullish possibility.
Below 0.5 we consider a bearish possibility.
I made a small example bot using that initial logic, together with 2 exit points for long or short positions.
If there are any questions, let me know !
MTF Bullish/Bearish IndicatorThe script plots a bullish/bearish indicator by evaluating a variety of moving averages for a security across multiple timeframes. It's derived from built in Technical Analysis indicator published by TradingView. The result of evaluation is plotted on the chart in green light/red light format in a configurable location.
evaluated moving averages include
- SMA 10, 20, 30, 50, 100, 200
- EMA 10, 20, 30, 50, 100, 200
- Hull MA 9
- VWMA 20
- Ichimoku Cloud
moving averages are evaluated at chart timeframes and 5 min, 15 min, 30 min, 120 min, 240 min, and daily by default but can be customized.
Macd Divergence + MTF EMA MACD Divergence + Multi Time Frame EMA
This Strategy uses 3 indicators: the Macd and two emas in different time frames
The configuration of the strategy is:
Macd standar configuration (12, 26, 9) in 1H resolution
10 periods ema, in 1H resolution
5 periods ema, in 15 minutes resolution
We use the two emas to filter for long and short positions.
If 15 minutes ema is above 1H ema, we look for long positions
If 15 minutes ema is below 1H ema, we look for short positions
We can use an aditional filter using a 100 days ema, so when the 15' and 1H emas are above the daily ema we take long positions
Using this filter improves the strategy
We wait for Macd indicator to form a divergence between histogram and price
If we have a bullish divergence, and 15 minutes ema is above 1H ema, we wait for macd line to cross above signal line and we open a long position
If we have a bearish divergence, and 15 minutes ema is below 1H ema, we wait for macd line to cross below signal line and we open a short position
We close both position after a cross in the oposite direction of macd line and signal line
Also we can configure a Take profit parameter and a trailing stop loss
[SCL] True Market StructureSee market structure at a glance with Higher Highs and Lower Lows. Bullish/Bearish/Ranging market bias is automatically derived. Optionally get alerted for breaks in market structure. Uses true Local Highs/Lows instead of simply the highest/lowest "pivot" for x bars. Can be useful as a support for learning market structure or for alerts for a change in structure while you're not at the computer.
Separated ATR - evoThis script plots two ATR (Average True Range) values, one based on only bullish and the other based on only bearish bars. If the current bar is positive, the negative ATR will use its last known negative bar for the calculation. You can smooth bar directions by using the Heikin Ashi setting.
Use this the same way how you would use the regular ATR indicator, but with the added value of knowing which side of the market has more volatility.
TMMS OscillatorThe TMMS oscillator (aka “Trading Made More Simpler”) is an indicator made of conditions based on both 2 separated Stochastic and 1 RSI.
Bullish zone is green and bearish one is red. When the histogram is grey, no signals is available at that time.
The indicator has an option to show the current trend of an Hull moving average (ascending or descending curve). When the trend is up, green dots are plotted on the zero line. When the trend is down, the dots are coloured in red.
Greetings, success with your trade!!!
Dreadblitz BarsThese bars can give you good opportunities if you know how to analyze the context.
blue=bullish

Market Thrust IndicatorThe Market Thrust indicator is a powerful measure of the stock market's internal strength or weakness. There are four components to this indicator:
1-Advancing Issues on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) – $ADV
2-Advancing Volume on the NYSE – $UVOL
3-Declining Issues on the NYSE – $DECL
4-Declining Volume on the NYSE – $DVOL
The formula for Market Thrust is given below:
($ADV x $UVOL)-($DECL x $DVOL)
When used for day-trading, the trend of the Market Thrust indicator is what is most important.
Rising Market Thrust Indicator: Considered a bullish sign; can act as a confirmation signal when combined with a rising stock, index ETF, or stock index future's price.
Falling Market Thrust Indicator: Considered a bearish sign; can act as a confirmation signal of a decreasing market price.
The Market Thrust indicator could be used for detecting divergences in trends. Divergences occur when:
- Price is trending higher, but the Market Thrust indicator is not moving higher or is even going down.
- Price is trending lower, however, the Market Thrust technical analysis tool is not trending lower, it is either not trending or is trending higher.
Add a fully configurable trend line over MTI.

RSI_EMA & Bearish EngulfingThis is a RSI-RSI of EMA and bearish candlestick reversal pattern formed by two candlesticks. Following an uptrend, the first candlestick is a up candlestick which is followed by a down candlestick which has a long real body that engulfs or contains the real body of the prior bar. following an uptrend, if RSI and EMA line cross then Sell and for downtrend if RSI and EMA line cross then Buy.
CMYK VRMI◊ Introduction
This script indicates the relative movement of price x volume.
◊ Origin
Based on 'The Relative Momentum Index' by Roger Altman : February, 1993 issue of Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities magazine.
While RSI counts up and down days from close to close, the Relative Momentum Index counts up and down days from the close relative to a close x number of days ago.
This results in an RSI that is smoother. The input has been changed to the change of a smoothed close multiplied by a smoothed volume.
The polarity of VRMI indicates bearish/bullish movement.
◊ Adjustments
CMYK color theme applied.
◊ Usage
VRMI indicates the force the market moves with.

Bearish signal using Point of Control (POC) with PAC by guruThis indicator code helps traders identify potential sell opportunities using several important technical indicators:
Point of Control (POC) – This is the price level where the most volume was traded over the past several days.
Previous Day's Low – This shows the lowest price reached during the previous day.
PAC (Price Action Channel) EMA – These are two moving averages (one based on the low price and one based on the close price) that help determine if the price is trending within a certain range.
Volume SMA – This is a 3-day simple moving average (SMA) of volume, which helps filter out signals based on market activity.
What the Script Does:
Point of Control (POC):
The script looks at the last 50 days (configurable) and calculates which price level had the highest trading volume.
It then plots a red line on the chart at the POC level. This is important because it helps identify areas where there was strong market interest in the past.
Volume Moving Average:
The script calculates a 3-day SMA of volume, but it excludes the current day to avoid premature signals based on today’s trading.
The volume SMA is used to ensure there’s enough market activity (with a threshold set to 25 units) before triggering a sell signal.
Price Action Channel (PAC) EMA:
The PAC consists of two exponential moving averages (EMAs):
The PAC Low EMA: This is based on the low prices over the last 34 periods (configurable).
The PAC Close EMA: This is based on the closing prices over the last 34 periods.
These EMAs help determine if the price is trending above or below certain price levels.
Sell Signal Logic: The script checks three conditions before displaying a "Sell" signal:
Price Below POC and Previous Day’s Low:
The close price must be below both the Point of Control (POC) and the previous day's low.
Volume SMA Above 25:
The 3-day volume SMA must be greater than 25. This ensures the signal only triggers when there’s enough trading volume in the market.
Today’s Low is Above PAC EMAs:
Today's low price must be above both the PAC low EMA and the PAC close EMA. This prevents sell signals when prices are already significantly below the PAC, indicating possible exhaustion in the downtrend.
If all three conditions are met, the script will display a red "Sell" label on the chart, signaling a potential selling opportunity.
No Sell Signal if Price Reverses:
If the price crosses back above the POC or the previous day's low, the script will remove the sell signal and reset for a new opportunity.
Summary of Conditions:
For the script to display a "Sell" label:
The close price must be below the Point of Control (POC) and the previous day’s low.
The 3-day volume SMA (excluding today) must be greater than 25 units.
The low price of the current day must be above both the PAC low EMA and the PAC close EMA.
If these conditions are met, a red sell label appears on the chart as a potential signal for a short (sell) trade.
HTF Pivots SignalsIntroduction :
HPS (HTF Pivot Signals) provides traders with a systematic approach to Higher Timeframe structure analysis and signal confirmation. Designed for traders seeking to identify confirmed structure changes, this indicator detects HTF pivot interactions and generates entry signals when price confirms beyond chart timeframe pivot levels. The indicator helps analysts identify key structure breaks, momentum shifts, and high-probability entry points based on confirmed pivot interactions.
Description :
HPS is rooted in the principle that Higher Timeframe structure changes provide context for lower timeframe price action. When an HTF pivot is interacted with (mitigated), it signals a potential opportunity for a mean reversal. The indicator then waits for confirmation on the chart timeframe before generating a signal, ensuring only confirmed setups are highlighted.
Main indicator screenshot showing HTF pivots and confirmation signals
The system operates by detecting pivot highs and lows on a higher timeframe, tracking when these pivots are interacted with, and confirming signals when price closes beyond chart timeframe pivot levels. This two-step process—interaction followed by confirmation—filters out false signals and provides only actionable setups.
HPS automatically calculates the optimal higher timeframe pairing (typically 15-16x the chart timeframe) or allows manual selection. The indicator remains stable and non-repainting, offering traders reliable, unchanged levels within the given time period. Pivot cleanup is managed by mitigation order rather than age, ensuring the most recent interactions remain visible while older ones are removed systematically.
Key Features:
Automatic HTF Selection: The indicator automatically calculates the optimal higher timeframe pairing based on your chart timeframe, typically using 15-16x multiples (e.g., 5m → 1h, 15m → 4h, 1h → 1D). For a more dynamic experience, the Automatic feature autonomously adjusts the higher timeframe pairing based on the current chart timeframe, ensuring accurate alignment with structure analysis. Manual override is available for custom timeframe selection.
Confirmed Pivot Detection: HPS only displays confirmed HTF pivots that have been interacted with. Unlike basic pivot indicators that show all pivots, HPS requires pivot interaction before displaying, eliminating noise and focusing on actionable structure changes. Pivots are marked with PH (Pivot High) and PL (Pivot Low) labels when enabled.
Signal Confirmation System: When an HTF pivot is interacted with, a pending signal is created signaling a potential mean reversal opportunity. The signal confirms when price closes beyond the chart timeframe pivot level—pivot low for bearish signals, pivot high for bullish signals. Confirmed signals display with OB+ (bullish) or OB- (bearish) labels and extending confirmation lines that mark the entry level.
Mitigation-Based Cleanup: Pivot cleanup is managed by mitigation order rather than age. The system maintains the latest mitigated pivots while removing older ones based on interaction time. This ensures recent interactions remain visible while preventing chart clutter. The maximum number of mitigated pivots displayed is configurable based on the max pivots setting.
Customizable Display: Full control over visual elements including pivot highs/lows visibility, pivot labels (PH/PL), confirmation lines, colors, and line width. Confirmation line labels (OB+/OB-) always display regardless of label toggle settings, ensuring signal visibility. Adjust the maximum number of pivots displayed to match your charting style and analysis needs.
Stop Level Calculation: Automatically calculates stop levels based on the maximum price (for bearish signals) or minimum price (for bullish signals) from signal creation to confirmation. These levels represent the risk point for each confirmed signal, providing clear risk management reference points.
Stop level calculation visualization
Multi-Timeframe Compatibility: Works across all TradingView timeframes and market types including Forex, Crypto, Stocks, and Futures. The automatic HTF selection adapts to any chart timeframe, providing consistent structure analysis regardless of the trading instrument or timeframe selected.
Multi-timeframe compatibility example
Usage Guidance :
Add HPS (HTF Pivot Signals) to your TradingView chart.
Select your preferred HTF pairing (Automatic or Manual) and adjust display settings to match your visual preferences.
Monitor for HTF pivot interactions—when price mitigates an HTF pivot, a pending signal is created signaling a potential mean reversal opportunity. Wait for confirmation when price closes beyond the chart timeframe pivot level, indicated by OB+ or OB- labels.
Use the confirmation lines and stop levels to identify entry points and manage risk. Combine with your existing analysis methods to enhance structure-based trading decisions.

Common Scenarios
Scenario 1: Clean VWAP Bounce
* All filters green ✓
* Price pulls back to VWAP
* Green triangle appears
* Action: Enter long immediately
Scenario 2: Failed Volume
* Trend ✓, Time ✓, Near VWAP ✓
* Volume ✗ (red X)
* Action: Wait for volume increase or skip trade
Scenario 3: Wrong Time Window
* All filters green except Time ✗
* Action: If you trade mid-day, consider extending time window in settings

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I use this for short entries?
A: The current version is for long entries only. For shorts, you'd need to reverse the logic (price rejecting VWAP as resistance, downtrend, etc.).
Q: What stocks work best with this indicator?
A: Mid-cap momentum stocks ($1B-$10B market cap), price $10-$100, daily volume > 1M, with a clear catalyst (earnings, news, sector move).
Q: Can I trade this on daily or weekly charts?
A: No. VWAP is an intraday indicator that resets each trading day. Use only on intraday timeframes (1m, 2m, 5m, 15m, 30m).
Q: Should I take every signal?
A: No. Use the indicator as a filter, not a mechanical system. Consider overall market conditions, stock-specific catalysts, and your own price action analysis.
Q: How accurate is this indicator?
A: Accuracy depends on market conditions, stock selection, and your execution. Expect 50-65% win rate with proper 2:1+ risk/reward, similar to Aziz's methodology.
