RGLRGL Breakout and Retest Trade Strategy
Key Concepts:
Breakout: A breakout occurs when the price moves decisively through a significant support (green line) or resistance (red line) level. This indicates a shift in supply and demand dynamics, with the potential for a strong price movement in the breakout direction.
Retest: After the breakout, the price often returns to the broken level (support becomes resistance and vice versa) to test its validity. This retest provides an opportunity to enter the trade at a more favorable price with confirmation of the breakout.

Cumulative Volume Delta (MTF)Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) Indicator
The Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) indicator is a powerful analytical tool used to understand the behavior and dynamics of market participants through volume analysis. It tracks the net difference between buying and selling pressure, providing insights into market trends and potential reversals. Here's a detailed description of this indicator and its components:
The Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) indicator calculates the cumulative net difference between buying and selling volume over a specified period. By analyzing this net difference, traders can gain insights into the underlying strength or weakness of a price movement, helping to identify trends, reversals, and potential breakout points.
Key Components:
Bull & Bear Power Calculation:
Bull Power: Represents the strength of buyers in the market. It is calculated based on the relationship between the current and previous price bars. A higher Bull Power indicates stronger buying pressure.
Bear Power: Represents the strength of sellers in the market. It is also calculated based on the relationship between the current and previous price bars. A higher Bear Power indicates stronger selling pressure.
Bull & Bear Volume Calculation:
Bull Volume: The volume attributed to buying pressure. It is calculated by taking the proportion of Bull Power relative to the total of Bull Power and Bear Power, multiplied by the total volume.
Bear Volume: The volume attributed to selling pressure. It is calculated similarly to Bull Volume but using Bear Power.
Delta Calculation:
Delta: The net difference between Bull Volume and Bear Volume for each bar. A positive Delta indicates more buying pressure, while a negative Delta indicates more selling pressure.
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD):
CVD: The running total of the Delta values over time. It accumulates the net buying and selling pressure to provide a visual representation of the market's cumulative sentiment.
Moving Average of CVD (CVD MA):
CVD MA: A simple moving average of the CVD, used to smooth out fluctuations and help identify the overall trend. It provides a baseline to compare the current CVD value against, highlighting divergences or convergences.
Multi-Timeframe Functionality:
The enhanced version of the CVD indicator includes multi-timeframe (MTF) capabilities, allowing users to select and analyze data from different timeframes. This feature enhances the versatility of the indicator by providing a broader perspective on market dynamics across various time intervals.
Practical Applications:
Trend Identification: By tracking the CVD and its moving average, traders can identify the prevailing trend. An upward-sloping CVD indicates sustained buying pressure, while a downward-sloping CVD indicates sustained selling pressure.
Divergences: Divergences between the CVD and price can signal potential reversals. For example, if the price is making new highs but the CVD is not, it may indicate weakening buying pressure and a potential reversal.
Breakout Confirmation: Significant changes in the CVD can confirm breakouts. A sharp increase in the CVD during a price breakout indicates strong buying support, adding confidence to the breakout.
Support and Resistance Levels: The CVD can help identify significant support and resistance levels based on changes in volume dynamics. For instance, a notable increase in buying volume at a support level can reinforce its strength.
Daily Close GAP Detector [Yosiet]User Manual for "Daily Close GAP Detector "
Overview
This script is designed to help traders identify and react to significant gaps in daily market prices. It plots daily open and close prices and highlights significant gaps with a cross. The script is particularly useful for identifying potential breakouts or reversals based on these gaps.
Configuration
GAP Close Threshold: This input allows you to set a threshold for the gap size that you consider significant. The default value is 0.001.
Timeframe Seeker: This input lets you choose the timeframe for the gap detection. The default is 'D' for daily.
Features
Daily Open and Close Lines: The script plots daily open and close prices. If the close price is lower than the open price, the line is colored red; otherwise, it's green.
Gap Detection: It calculates the difference between the current day's close and the previous day's close, both adjusted for the selected timeframe. If this difference exceeds the threshold, it's considered a significant gap.
Significant Gap Indicator: A cross is plotted on the chart to indicate significant gaps. The color of the cross indicates whether the gap is a short or long gap: red for short gaps and green for long gaps.
Alert Conditions: The script sets up alert conditions for short and long gap breakouts. You can customize the alert messages to include details like the ticker symbol, interval, price, and exchange.
How to Use

Extending the Code
To extend this script, you can modify the gap detection logic, add more indicators, or integrate it with other scripts for a more comprehensive trading strategy. Remember to test any changes thoroughly before using them in live trading.
Mean and Standard Deviation Lines Description:
Calculates the mean and standard deviation of close-to-close price differences over a specified period, providing insights into price volatility and potential breakouts.
Manually calculates mean and standard deviation for a deeper understanding of statistical concepts.
Plots the mean line, upper bound (mean + standard deviation), and lower bound (mean - standard deviation) to visualize price behavior relative to these levels.
Highlights bars that cross the upper or lower bounds with green (above) or red (below) triangles for easy identification of potential breakouts or breakdowns.
Customizable period input allows for analysis of short-term or long-term volatility patterns.
Probability Interpretations based on Standard Deviation:
50% probability: mean or expected value
68% probability: Values within 1 standard deviation of the mean (mean ± stdev) represent roughly 68% of the data in a normal distribution. This implies that around 68% of closing prices in the past period fell within this range.
95% probability: Expanding to 2 standard deviations (mean ± 2*stdev) captures approximately 95% of the data. So, in theory, there's a 95% chance that future closing prices will fall within this wider range.
99.7% probability: Going further to 3 standard deviations (mean ± 3*stdev) encompasses nearly 99.7% of the data. However, these extreme values become less likely as you move further away from the mean.
Key Features:
Uses manual calculations for mean and standard deviation, providing a hands-on approach.
Excludes the current bar's close price from calculations for more accurate analysis of past data.
Ensures valid index usage for robust calculation logic.
Employs unbiased standard deviation calculation for better statistical validity.
Offers clear visual representation of mean and volatility bands.
Considerations:
Manual calculations might have a slight performance impact compared to built-in functions.
Not a perfect normal distribution: Financial markets often deviate from a perfect normal distribution. This means probability interpretations based on standard deviation shouldn't be taken as absolute truths.
Non-stationarity: Market conditions and price behavior can change over time, impacting the validity of past data as a future predictor.
Other factors: Many other factors influence price movements beyond just the mean and standard deviation.
Always consider other technical and fundamental factors when making trading decisions.
Potential Use Cases:
Identifying periods of high or low volatility.
Discovering potential breakout or breakdown opportunities.
Comparing volatility across different timeframes.
Complementing other technical indicators for confirmation.
Understanding statistical concepts for financial analysis.
PercentX Trend Follower [Trendoscope]"Trendoscope" was born from our trading journey, where we first delved into the world of trend-following methods. Over time, we discovered the captivating allure of pattern analysis and the exciting challenges it presented, drawing us into exploring new horizons. However, our dedication to trend-following methodologies remains steadfast and continues to be an integral part of our core philosophy.
Here we are, introducing another effective trend-following methodology, employing straightforward yet powerful techniques.
🎲 Concepts
Introducing the innovative PercentX Oscillator , a representation of Bollinger PercentB and Keltner Percent K. This powerful tool offers users the flexibility to customize their PercentK oscillator, including options for the type of moving average and length.
The Oscillator Range is derived dynamically, utilizing two lengths - inner and outer. The inner length initiates the calculation of the oscillator's highest and lowest range, while the outer length is used for further calculations, involving either a moving average or the opposite side of the highest/lowest range, to obtain the oscillator ranges.
Next, the Oscillator Boundaries are derived by applying another round of high/low or moving average calculations on the oscillator range values.
Breakouts occur when the close price crosses above the upper boundary or below the lower boundary, signaling potential trading opportunities.
🎲 How to trade a breakout?
To reduce false signals, we employ a simple yet effective approach. Instead of executing market trades, we use stop orders on both sides at a certain distance from the current close price.
In case of an upper side breakout, a long stop order is placed at 1XATR above the close, and a short stop order is placed at 2XATR below the close. Conversely, for a lower side breakout, a short stop order is placed at 1XATR below the close, and a long stop order is placed at 2XATR above the ATR. As a trend following method, our first inclination is to trade on the side of breakout and not to find the reversals. Hence, higher multiplier is used for the direction opposite to the breakout.
The script provides users with the option to specify ATR multipliers for both sides.
Once a trade is initiated, the opposite side of the trade is converted into a stop-loss order. In the event of a breakout, the script will either place new long and short stop orders (if no existing trade is present) or update the stop-loss orders if a trade is currently running.
As a trend-following strategy, this script does not rely on specific targets or target levels. The objective is to run the trade as long as possible to generate profits. The trade is only stopped when the stop-loss is triggered, which is updated with every breakout to secure potential gains and minimize risks.
🎲 Default trade parameters
Script uses 10% equity per trade and up to 4 pyramid orders. Hence, the maximum invested amount at a time is 40% of the equity. Due to this, the comparison between buy and hold does not show a clear picture for the trade.
Feel free to explore and optimize the parameters further for your favorite symbols.
🎲 Visual representation
The blue line represents the PercentX Oscillator, orange and lime colored lines represent oscillator ranges. And red/green lines represent oscillator boundaries. Oscillator spikes upon breakout are highlighted with color fills.
Trading BehnamI've read around here various definitions for engulfs along the lines of "an engulf consumes all orders at a level to allow price to easily pass through it." . That doesn't make much sense to me, if the guys with billions of dollars want to break a level, they will break it and price will run off very often. We've seen it time and time again, they don't need to engulf levels to give us a nice opportunity to get into the trade with them, if they want to blast through a level, they will do so and price will run off. If they want an opportunity to accumulate more orders before price runs away, then it doesn't make sense to engulf the level, better to let price bounce from that level and then fill more orders, if the level breaks then they have to deliberately stop the market running away and move it back to the pre-engulf area as the market momentum would naturally make it run off after an engulf. Other ideas about it being a secret signal between the institutions don't make sense to me either. To be honest, I think any secret signals between competing institutions come in the form of them in a heavily encrypted chatroom telling each other what to do. This collusion has been reported on previously as traders align their activities at important moments.
So I think we can all agree something along the lines of:
Fakeout:
Fakeout is an engulf of an obvious swing high/low in order to stop out traders and induce breakout traders to trade in the wrong direction, thus generating liquidity for the move in the opposite direction.
What's not so clear is the definition of the engulf, I'd like to try to give some ideas on the purpose of the engulf and it's definition and see what others think.
Engulf:
An engulf is the consumption of orders at an important level, not necessarily a swing/high low but an area where we expect to see supply or demand. Taking out of the orders tells us that the supply or demand which was or should have been present is now not present and tells us the intent direction of the market. If price runs off as is often the case, this is not tradeable and is effectively just a "breakout", although breakouts are usually considered to be breaks of swing high and lows which are obvious to the average trader. For an engulf to be tradeable there must be a retrace following the engulf back in the original direction. This adds confusion as it initially resembles a fakeout. So the question is, why does price retrace after the engulf? If an engulf to the short side is a genuine engulf and not a fakeout to generate long liquidity, why does it not travel immediately south if market momentum is ultimately south.
A small pocket of demand beneath the engulfed level may make it retrace north as price moves between areas of liquidity, this pocket of demand may give price enough momentum to make it back up to the supply which broke the demand level if key market participants do not favour an immediate market drop.
Alternatively key market participants may step in and drive the market back upwards.
Price moving north back to supply after the engulf may occur or be favourable for various reasons:
1) We often talk about FO generating liquidity because of breakout trading, but an engulf can also generate liquidity from breakout traders. Short breakout traders would place their stop losses a small distance above the engulf (breakout). If key players absorb this selling or allow a demand level to push price back up, they can run price back up to supply taking out the stops of the breakout short traders and make quick profit and/or generate more liquidity for their own shorts.
2) To confuse traders, the ITs don't want the puzzle that is Forex to be easy to solve, if price never retraced after an engulf then engulfs of all levels would be FOs. Price would either break and immediately runoff or it would turn and runoff in the other direction. In order to keep people confused about whether price is faking out or breaking out, sometimes price should whipsaw by breaking out, briefly faking out and then continuing in the direction of the breakout. This whipsaw pattern is to us a tradeable engulf.
3) Market momentum may be mixed, key players are indecisive or inactive or the market is behaving erratically.
4) As previously mentioned there may be a small pocket of supply/demand just past the engulf which is causing a reaction. This could also be viewed as a FO on a different timeframe. If the market engulfs an H1 demand level, then retraces for 30 mins upwards to supply, this engulf would be a valid and very profitable FO for an M1 trader looking to get long.
Volume ChartVolume data can be interpreted in many different ways. This is a very basic script and novel idea to display volume as a chart. The purpose of this script is to visually help identify volume breakouts and other common chart patterns. While this indicator could be useful for finding big moves and early reversals it not reliable for determining the direction of the move.
Below is an example of a volume breakout:
Below is confirmation of the second ear in the batman pattern:
Lower highs and higher lows can give early signs of a reversal:
Below we can see retailers getting pumped and dumped on during the gaps while they sleep:
V Bottom & V Top Pattern [Misu]█ This indicator shows V bottom & V top patterns as well as potential V bottom & V top.
These V bottom & V top are chart powerful reversal patterns.
They appear in all markets and time-frames, but due to the nature of the aggressive moves that take place when a market reverses direction, it can be difficult to identify this pattern in real-time.
To address this problem, I added potential V pattern as well as the confirmed one.
█ Usages:
You can use V top & V bottoms for reversal zones.
You can use it for scalping strategies, as a main buy & sell signal.
Potential V patterns can be used to anticipate the market, in addition to volatility or momentum indicators, for example.
█ How it works?
This indicator uses pivot points to determine potential V patterns and confirm them.
Paramaters are available to filter breakouts of varying strengths.
Patterns also have a "max number bars" to be validated.
█ Why a Strategy type indicator?
Due to the many different parameters, this indicator is a strategy type.
This way you can overview the best settings depending on your pair & timeframe.
Parameters are available to filter.
█ Parameters:
Deviation: Parameter used to calculate parameters.
Depth: Parameter used to calculate parameters.
Confirmation Type: Type of signal used to confirme the pattern.
> Mid Pivot: pattern will confirm on mid pivot breakout.
> Opposit Pivot: pattern will confirm on opposit pivot breakout.
> No confirmation: no confirmation.
Lenght Avg Body: Lenght used to calculate the average body size.
First Breakout Factor: This factor multiplied by the "body avg" filters out the non-significant breakout of potential V pattern.
Confirmation Breakout Factor: This factor multiplied by the "body avg" filters out the non-significant breakout for the confirmation.
Max Bars Confirmation: The maximum number of bars needed to validate the pattern.

Donchian Screener█ OVERVIEW
This is a screener script for the Donchian Channel indicator . It's an excellent indicator for trend following, a trading strategy which tries to take advantage of long, medium or short-term moves that seem to play out in various markets.
█ DESCRIPTION
The screener works by scanning through up to 10 symbols and list down symbols that are currently breaking through the upper or lower band as definied by the Donchian Channels, at which point the market signals the start of a bullish or bearish trend.
█ HOW TO USE
After adding the indicator, open the script settings and type the symbol name and length to be used on the Donchian Channels for each stock.
█ PARAMETERS
- Use High/Low Price Breakouts: check this box if you want to use price high/low instead of price close to identify breakouts
- Panel Position: choose whether you want to position the panel on the top, middle or bottom right side of the graph (default is top)
- Default Timeframe: what timeframe to use on the screener (default is daily)
- Ticker: the ticker name you want to monitor
- Length: length parameter used on Donchian Channel indicator
█ FEATURES
The screener can scan up to 10 symbols each time.
█ LIMITATIONS
The screener will scan the symbols breaking out bands on the current bar, and as such, there maybe some delays depending on the stock/ etf /crypto you choose. Some exchanges require an additional subscription to get realtime data.
Trend Following with Donchian Channels and MACDThis is a trend following system based on the Donchian Channels. Instead of using a simple moving average crossover, this system uses the MACD as the trendfilter:
Long positions:
* Price makes a new 50 day high,
* The MACD-line crosses above or is above the Signal-line.
* Both the MACD and the Signal-lines are above the zero-line.
Short positions:
* Price makes a new 50 day low,
* The MACD-line crosses below or is below the Signal-line.
* Both the MACD and the Signal-lines are below the zero-line.
Stoploss:
The initial and the trailing stoploss are 4 ATRs away from the price.
Hi-Lo TrendThis script uses the most recent low/high and candle size to determine trend breakouts.
The trend is determined buy whether the most recent price extreme within the Lookback period is a high or low. If it is a most recent high, it is an uptrend, if it is a lwo, a downtrend.
Bands are created using the average absolute difference of current minus previous close over the MABandPeriod, multiplied by the MABandMultiplier.
If the current close minus previous close is above/below the band, then a blue dot is painted and it is a breakout.
a buy alert fires when a downtrend becomes an uptrend and a breakout above the bands happens.
A sell alert fires when an uptrend becomes a downtrend and a breakout below the bands happns.
2 Candles Inside ATR2 agitated candles falling inside ATR range, awaiting possibly a big move.
Buy / Sell signals at combined high / low can be used as order with other as stop loss.
Counter trade, when this minimal stop loss is hit, is also as useful. However, wait till the SL candle closes, before opening position on the other side.
Works quite well on 15 mins chart, with settings of ATR duration 25 and multiplier 0.6. These settings are configurable, so feel free.
Smoothed CandlesHello Traders,
This is " Smoothed Candles " script to get rid of noises and to get a smoothed chart to figure out breakouts and price movements easily.
There are three scaling methods: User Defined, Dynamic (ATR) and Percentage
Optionally you can add 2 Simple Moving Averages and 2 Exponential Moving Averages
Optionally you can hide the Wicks, example:
You can add moving averages:
Easily find breakouts:
Enjoy!
Hikkake PatternLifted description from web:
Hikkake means to trap, trick, or ensnare. Primarily, this price pattern seeks to identify inside bar breakouts and profit from their failures.
An inside bar is a price bar that is entirely within the range of the preceding price bar. Inside bars are typical on price charts of most timeframes.
While you’ll often find inside bars in congested markets, they also offer a low-risk entry point for price action traders. The contracted range of an inside bar offers a natural tight stop-loss.
Hence, inside bar breakouts seem attractive. However, if you are patient and focus on identifying false breakouts, you might be able to find more reliable trading setups in the form of Hikkakes.
In a nutshell, the Hikkake pattern offers a systematic approach to trading false inside bar breakouts.
As a filter I incorporated VWAP into the code to only trigger Bullish / Bearish signals when price is Above/Below VWAP respectively. The ATR is used to create a Stop buffer (red cross) for the Entry signal ( green dot ). The R1 and R2 (orange squares) are two possible profit targets that are customizable to different Risk multiples based upon the difference between Entry and Stop.
