CPR, Camarilla & Moving AverageThis script is created primarily for Intraday trading but can also be used for short and long term trading. This is a combination of Central Pivot Range (CPR), Moving Averages and Camarilla Pivot levels (with inner levels). This helps you to combine the strategies of CPR and Moving Averages to identify the best trading opportunities with greater edge. Central Pivot Range and Camarilla pivots are taken from PivotBoss by Franc Ochoa.
Key features:
# Daily CPR levels
# Weekly CPR levels
# Monthly CPR levels
# Previous Day High and Lows
# Previous Week Highs and Lows
# Previous Month Highs and Lows
# Camarilla Pivots with inner Levels
# CPR Levels for the next Day, Week and Month
# 5 Simple moving averages and 5 Exponential Moving Averages
What separates this script from other scripts with CPR and Moving averages?
# One of the few indicators (if not the only one) which combines the 2 types of Moving Averages, CPR and also Camarilla Pivots.
# CPR Levels for not just the next Day, but for next Week(Weekly CPR) and Month(Monthly CPR) also.
# Hide the previous day's levels according to your wish. This is the most unique feature of this indicator. You can set the number of Daily CPR levels you want to load in the chart. This is not just for the Daily CPR but also for the Weekly and Monthly CPR also. This makes the chart less cluttered and prevents the candles from getting buried in the indicators. Please notice how the previous day's CPR levels are hidden in the displayed demo chart on the script page. In the chart, only one trading day's data is shown(by default).
# This script is OPEN SOURCE.
Strategies :
For CPR & Camarilla Strategies for intraday trading and swing trading refer to the book 'Secrets of a Pivot Boss: Revealing Proven Methods for Profiting in the Market' by Franklin O. Ochoa.
Moving averages strategies :
Moving averages can be combined and also used individually for several strategies
* 9 EMA can be used as trailing stop loss for strong moving trends that helps you to catch big moves.
* 20sma can be used not just trailing stop loss but also for taking re-entry to the trend.
* Golden cross - The golden cross occurs when a short-term moving average crosses over a major long-term moving average to the upside. This indicates a bullish turn in the market. Eg: 50 SMA cuts 200 SMA from below.
* Death Cross - The death cross occurs when the short term moving average crosses the long-term average from above. This indicates a bearish turn in the market. Eg: 50 SMA cuts 200 SMA from above.
* When 20 SMA is above 50 SMA and 20 SMA and 50 SMA are angling up like parallel lines, then it denotes bullish strength. If this happens right after Golden Cross, big moves to the upside can be expected.
* When 20 SMA is below 50 SMA and 20 SMA and 50 SMA are angling down like parallel lines, then it denotes bearish strength. If this happens right after Death Cross, big moves to the downside can be expected.
* When 20SMA and 50 SMA are going flat and crossing each other, then it denotes sideways sentiment.
Moving average strategies are taken from the book 'How to Make Money in Intraday Trading' by Ashwani Gujral. For learning more about how to combine CPR and Moving averages in your trading please refer to this book.

BAM's Weighted ROCTraders,
BAM's Weighted ROC is a Momentum indicator. ROC stands for 'Rate of Change' therefor this indicator plots the reading of a weighted average Rate of Change. In its current form it uses 4 periods en 4 weightings. The periods are set to 21/63/126/252 which corresponds to the number of trading days in each 1/3/6/12 months. The weightings are set to emphasize the more recent periods where the 1-month period counts for 40% of the signal, the 3-monthh period for 30%, the 6-month for 20% and the 12-month for 10%. These settings, both periods and weightings, are customizable. The current settings are meant to serve the widely used 1-day time interval chart setting. Feel free to alter the time frame and adjust the parameters accordingly; eg I like trading the weekly chart on a 10/20/30/40 period settings.
BAM's Weighted ROC can be used as a trendfilter for Trend Following trading systems or as an entry signal for Swing trading systems, or both. In the current setting the indicator is set to trend-following; it turns green when positive (above 0), indicating positive momentum. And red when negative (below 0), indicating negative momentum. In the most basic form one can trade a well diversified portfolio of assets using the indicator as guidance for entry and exit signals as it flows back and forth between positive and negative. Another use for the indicator lies in Swing Trading systems. In this approach the transfer from declining momentum into ascending momentum can be interpreted as a shift in momentum from negative to positive, and therefor constitute an entry opportunity. A combination of the 2 signals is of perfectly viable too, wait for positive momentum (reading above 0) in combination with a upward shift from one bar to the other. Use the reverse logic as an exit signal. In these examples the indicator is used in a stand-alone fashion. But off course it can also be used in conjunction with other indicators.
I personally use the two functions, trend-following en swingtrading, in tandem (combined)
for further reading into the rational behind Trend Following trading systems I recommend the following sources:
- Free Read: Google for 'Meb Faber, Global Asset Allocation' he gives out free copies on his website. Meb is a well known character in the Momentum-factor arena.
- Easy read: 'Following the trend' By Andreas Clenow. I don't think there is any Trend Following trader that doesn't know this chaps work.
- sophisticated Read: Trend Following with Managed Futures by A. Greyserman and K. Kaminski. This one is for those who seriously mean business!
Good luck out there, pls consider that the momentum factor holds an edge, at least based on historical performance, but this out-performance (most often) lies in the low single digits.
Pls be aware that use of this indicator is at your own risk. All info provided is solely presented for educational purposes.
Kind regards,
Bam
Angle of Bollinger Bands AlertThis script is used to calculate angle of Bollinger Bands and also setup alerts.
The angle is based on the rules:
- if the previous 2 is 1.1, previous 1 is 1, and the current is 1.1, then the angle should be 90 degrees.
- if the previous 2 is 0.9, previous 1 is 1, and the current is 0.9, then the angle should be 270 degrees
If upper angle is below 90 degrees and close is above the average, it is long signal.
If lower angle is above 270 degrees and close is below the average, it is short signal.
- It is good for catch trend trading.
- Not good for swing trading as the BB changes are very tiny but angles for upper may hit below 90 degrees or angle of lower may be above 270 degrees.
Fat Side PathI got the idea for a narrow Donchian Channel with a short lookback period which closely follows the price fluctuation in which the sides of the channel have a thickness according to the range of the last touching candle.
Any channel, be it Donchian, Keltner, Bollinger Bands or Parallel, has an upside and a downside, touching the upside is a buy signal as this may initiate an uptrend, the downside a sell signal because a down trend may come.
This gave me the idea to make only the last touched side fat, thus creating visible switching between uptrend and downtrend. However this is ‘too digital’, as in practice also periods of no trend occur in which signaling a trend would give a false signal. In a Donchian channel (and also Bollinger Bands) such periods are marked by narrowing the channel. So I gave a no trend signal to the sides when the channel is narrower than a minimum width to call a trend. I gave the thing nice colours and proper default settings.
Use of the channel in trading.
I think this thing can be useful for swing trading. In channels two typical things may happen that should be noted by the trader, these are LB, Leaving the Border, which signals a trend reversal and FTT, Failure To Traverse, i.e. the price doesn’t manage to cross the channel to the other side. This affirms the trend. FTT’s are not expected in short lookback channels like this path (Sidenote: Fibonacci levels can be regarded as predictions where FTT’s may occur). The fat side indicates direction. Because somehow trends seem to end with a notable range extension, this channel sometimes produces a “Big Blob” where the trend reverses.
I intend to use this thing together with my Keltner Fibzones channel, where the zones serve as a ‘landscape’ in which the Fat Side Path meanders providing ‘comments’ on the short term price movements.
CCI Breakout TraderWorks well on Bitcoin or most altcoins on a 15min chart or higher.
What is this exactly?
This is an indicator that uses horizontal RSI + EMA lines with a CCI line on top of it to provide optimal entry and exit positions for trading. There is also a breakout indicator based on the width of Bollinger Bands.
How to use:
If the blue stream passes upwards on the red heading to the white - it's heading towards a good BUY signal. To be safe you wait until it passes above the white line, then BUY LONG. Another signal to buy long is when the blue stream passes above the white and green lines.
Selling is essentially the opposite, if the blue stream is passing down from the green or white lines, then it's time to sell and exit your trade.
If you need help knowing when to enter and exit a trade the indicator will draw a grey candle on your chart to signal it's time to exit a long trade and it will draw a purple candle when it's time to enter a long.
--
Breakout alert:
If you see a green vertical bar it's a warning that there is a potential breakout in price coming for whichever coin you are looking at. The price breakout could go either direction, so make sure you watch the blue stream.
--
Important tips:
The direction of the green/white/red lines are important - if they are heading down that means it might not be the best time to enter your trade, even if the blue stream crosses up on the red and/or white lines.
The colored horizontal lines are there to let you know if the blue stream is near the bottom of those lines (anywhere from hline 15 to 50) and heading upwards, you will more likely have a longer positive trade. If the blue stream is above 60 hline and it looks like a good trade (passing up on the red and white lines), expect to have a shorter trade.
I use this for swing trading various crypto currencies, once you learn how to read it, you can catch amazing uptrends really early and you can exit trades before some big drops happen.
Ripster EMA CloudsEMA Cloud By Ripster
EMA Cloud System is a Trading System Invented by Ripster where areas are shaded between two desired EMAs. The concept implies the EMA cloud area serves as support or resistance for Intraday & Swing Trading. This can be utilized effectively on 10 Min for day trading and 1Hr/Daily for Swings. Ripster himself utilizes various combinations of the 5-12, 34-50, 8-9, 20-21 EMA clouds but the possibilities are endless to find what works best for you.
“Ideally, 5-12 or 5-13 EMA cloud acts as a fluid trendline for day trades. 8-9 EMA Clouds can be used as pullback Levels –(optional). Additionally, a high level price over or under 34-50 EMA clouds confirms either bullish or bearish bias on the price action for any timeframe” – Ripster
Medium Term Weighted Stochastic (STPMT) by DGTLa Stochastique Pondérée Moyen Terme (STPMT) , or Mᴇᴅɪᴜᴍ Tᴇʀᴍ Wᴇɪɢʜᴛᴇᴅ Sᴛᴏᴄʜᴀꜱᴛɪᴄꜱ created by Eric Lefort in 1999, a French trader and author of trading books
█ The STPMT indicator is a tool which concerns itself with both the direction and the timing of the market. The STPMT indicator helps the trader with:
The general trend by observing the level around which the indicator oscillates
The changes of direction in the market
The timing to open or close a position by observing the oscillations and by observing the relative position of the STPMT versus its moving average
STPMT Calculation
stpmt = (4,1 * stoch(5, 3) + 2,5 * stoch(14, 3) + stoch(45, 14) + 4 * stoch(75, 20)) / 11.6
Where the first argument of the stoch function representation above is period (length) of K and second argument smoothing period of K. The result series is then plotted as red line and its moving average as blue line. By default disabled gray lines are the components of the STPMT
The oscillations of the STPMT around its moving average define the timing to open a position as crossing of STMP line and moving average line in case when both trends have same direction. The moving average determines the direction.
Long examples
█ Tʜᴇ CYCLE Iɴᴅɪᴄᴀᴛᴏʀ is derived from the STPMT. It is
cycle = stpmt – stpmt moving average
It is indicates more clearly all buy and sell opportunities. On the other hand it does not give any information on market direction. The Cycle indicator is a great help in timing as it allows the trader to more easily see the median length of an oscillation around the average point. In this way the traders can simply use the time axis to identify both a favorable price and a favorable moment. The Cycle Indicator is presented as histogram
The Lefort indicators are not a trading strategy. They are tools for different purposes which can be combined and which can serve for trading all instruments (stocks, market indices, forex, commodities…) in a variety of time frames. Hence they can be used for both day trading and swing trading.
👉 For whom that would like simple version of the Cycle indicator on top of the main price chart with signals as presented below.
Please note that in the following code STMP moving average direction is not considered and will plot signals regardless of the direction of STMP moving average. It is not a non-repainting version too.

Swing Reversal IndicatorSwing Reversal Indicator was meant to help identify pivot points on the chart which indicate momentum to buy and sell. The indicator uses 3 main questions to help plot the points:
Criteria
Did price take out yesterday's high or low?
Is today's range bigger than yesterday? (Indicates activity in price)
Is the close in the upper/lower portion of the candle? Thus, indicating momentum in that direction
This indicator was built to help me find pivot points for directional options trading however can be used for equities and forex swing trading and other strategies. Used in conjunction with a BB extreme can provide good setups.
Alerts are available for both the long and the short positions and the indicator will repaint as price moves.
The character Plotted can be changed in the settings
The size of the candle area can be changed as well if you want to tighten/loosen the trigger points based on the third question above.
Parabolic SAR Swing strategy GBP JPY Daily timeframeToday I bring you a new strategy thats made of parabolic sar. It has optmized values for GBPJPY Daily timeframe chart.
It also has a time period selection, in order to see how it behave between selected years.
The strategy behind it is simple :
We have an uptrend , (the psar is below our candles) we go long. We exit when our candle crosses the psar value.
The same applies for downtrend(the psar is above our candles), where we go short. We exit when our candle cross the psar value.
Among the basic indicators, it looks like PSAR is one of the best canditates for swing trading.
If you have any questions, please let me know.
Ultimate VWAP Bands- Ultimate VWAP Bands is a script that helps to decide and further clarify areas of oversold and overbought conditions.
- For example, when the price is in the lowest band it is extremely oversold relative to the VWAP . Hence it should be considered a good place to buy with a high risk to reward payoff.
- Each band is set at a fixed offset away from the VWAP . The "VWAP Band Multiplier" adjusts this and is a key part of the script. This allows the indicator to be adjusted based on the assets volatility . For example, with Crypto. A multiplier of 1 would be strongly advised. Whilst a multiplier of 0.1-0.25 would be useful for currency pairs.
- This indicator can be used for all manners of trading. However, it is most effective when used for scalping and swing trading.
[blackcat] L2 Swing Oscillator Swing MeterLevel: 2
Background
Swing trading is a type of trading aimed at making short to medium term profits from a trading pair over a period of a few days to several weeks. Swing traders mainly use technical analysis to look for trading opportunities. In addition to analyzing price trends and patterns, these traders can also use fundamental analysis.
Function
L2 Swing Oscillator Swing Meter is an oscillator based on breakouts. Another important feature of it is the swing meter, which confirms the top or bottom's confidence level with different color candles. The higher of the candles stack up, the higher confidence level is indicated.
Key Signal
absolutebot ---> absolute bottom with very high confidence level
ltbot ---> long term bottom with high confidence level
mtbot ---> middle term bottom with moderate confidence level
stbot ---> short term bottom with low confidence level
absolutetop ---> absolute top with very high confidence level
lttop ---> long term top with high confidence level
mttop ---> middle term top with moderate confidence level
sttop ---> short term top with low confidence level
fastline ---> oscillator fast line
slowline ---> oscillator slow line
Pros and Cons
Pros:
1. reconfigurable swing oscillator based on breakouts
2. swing meter can confirm/validate the bottom and top signal
Cons:
1. not appliable with trading pairs without volume information
2. small time frame may not trigger swing meter function
Remarks
This is a simple but very comprehensive technical indicator

In real life, I am a prolific inventor. I have successfully applied for more than 60 international and regional patents in the past 12 years. But in the past two years or so, I have tried to transfer my creativity to the development of trading strategies. Tradingview is the ideal platform for me. I am selecting and contributing some of the hundreds of scripts to publish in Tradingview community. Welcome everyone to interact with me to discuss these interesting pine scripts.
The scripts posted are categorized into 5 levels according to my efforts or manhours put into these works.
Level 1 : interesting script snippets or distinctive improvement from classic indicators or strategy. Level 1 scripts can usually appear in more complex indicators as a function module or element.
Level 2 : composite indicator/strategy. By selecting or combining several independent or dependent functions or sub indicators in proper way, the composite script exhibits a resonance phenomenon which can filter out noise or fake trading signal to enhance trading confidence level.
Level 3 : comprehensive indicator/strategy. They are simple trading systems based on my strategies. They are commonly containing several or all of entry signal, close signal, stop loss, take profit, re-entry, risk management, and position sizing techniques. Even some interesting fundamental and mass psychological aspects are incorporated.
Level 4 : script snippets or functions that do not disclose source code. Interesting element that can reveal market laws and work as raw material for indicators and strategies. If you find Level 1~2 scripts are helpful, Level 4 is a private version that took me far more efforts to develop.
Level 5 : indicator/strategy that do not disclose source code. private version of Level 3 script with my accumulated script processing skills or a large number of custom functions. I had a private function library built in past two years. Level 5 scripts use many of them to achieve private trading strategy.
L1 Mid-Term Swing Oscillator v1Level: 1
Background
Oscillators are widely used set of technical analysis indicators. They are popular primarily for their ability to alert of a possible trend change before that change manifests itself in price and volume . They should work best in times of sideways markets.
Function
L1 Short-Mid-Long-Term Swing Oscillator puts three terms of oscillators to cover short-term, middle-term and long-term oscillators at the same time. By resonating all these three oscillators, short-term scalping signal and middle term swing signal are disclosed. You can see both short and mid term signal under one indicator which give you more confidence to follow the trend.
Key Signal
I didn't handle the key signals well. I piled up all the useful signals I found, and it is really difficult to classify them one by one. I feel tired when I think about this problem. Therefore, the code of the overall signal is rather confusing, sorry.
Pros and Cons
Pros:
1. Three oscillators are used to cover short, mid, long term oscillations.
2. Short-Mid term resonance can be observed to have higher confidence level.
3. Use single indicator for scalping and swing trading is possible.
Cons:
1. No deep dive into very accurate long and short entries.
2. A trade off between sensitivity and stability may be needed by traders' subjective judge.
Remarks
I enjoyed the fun of put three different oscillator together to cover short, mid, long terms. But how to use them perfectly is really more brainstorming.

Why is it ok to backtest on TradingView from now on!TradingView backtester has bad reputation. For a good reason - it was producing wrong results, and it was clear at first sight how bad they were.
But this has changed. Along with many other improvements in its PineScript coding capabilities, TradingView fixed important bug, which was the main reason for miscalculations. TradingView didn't really speak out about this fix, so let me try :)
Have a look at this short code of a swing trading strategy (PLEASE DON'T FOCUS ON BACKTEST RESULTS ATTACHED HERE - THEY DO NOT MATTER). Sometimes entry condition happens together with closing condition for the already ongoing trade. Example: the condition to close Long entry is the same as a condition to enter Short. And when these two aligned, not only a Long was closed and Short was entered (as intended), but also a second Short was entered, too!!! What's even worse, that second short was not controlled with closing conditions inside strategy.exit() function and it very often lead to losses exceeding whatever was declared in "loss=" parameter. This could not have worked well...
But HOORAY!!! - it has been fixed and won't happen anymore. So together with other improvements - TradingView's backtester and PineScript is now ok to work with on standard candlesticks :)
Yep, no need to code strategies and backtest them on other platforms anymore.
----------------
Having said the above, there are still some pitfalls remaining, which you need to be aware of and avoid:
Don't backtest on HeikenAshi, Renko, Kagi candlesticks. They were not invented with backtesting in mind. There are still using wrong price levels for entries and therefore producing always too good backtesting results. Only standard candlesticks are reliable to backtest on.
Don't use Trailing Stop in your code. TradingView operates only on closed candlesticks, not on tick data and because of that, backtester will always assume price has first reached its favourable extreme (so 'high' when you are in Long trade and 'low' when you are in Short trade) before it starts to pull back. Which is rarely the truth in reality. Therefore strategies using Trailing Stop are also producing too good backtesting results. It is especially well visible on higher timeframe strategies - for some reason your strategy manages to make gains on those huge, fat candlesticks :) But that's not reality.
"when=" inside strategy.exit() does not work as you would intuitively expect. If you want to have logical condition to close your trade (for example - crossover(rsi(close,14),20)) you need to place it inside strategy.close() function. And leave StopLoss + TakeProfit conditions inside strategy.exit() function. Just as in attached code.
If you're working with pyramiding, add "process_orders_on_close=ANY" to your strategy() script header. Default setting ("=FIFO") will first close the trade, which was opened first, not the one which was hit by Stop-Loss condidtion.
----------------
That's it, I guess :) If you are noticing other issues with backtester and would like to share, let everyone know in comments. If the issue is indeed a bug, there is a chance TradingView dev team will hear your voice and take it into account when working on other improvements. Just like they heard about the bug I described above.
P.S. I know for a fact that more improvements in the backtesting area are coming. Some will change the game even for non-coding traders. If you want to be notified quickly and with my comment - gimme "follow".
Complete Trend Trading System [Fhenry0331]This system was designed for the beginner trader to make money swing trading. Your losses will be small and your gains will be mostly large. You will show consistent profit. Period.
The system works on any security you like to trade. I used GBPUSD as an example because of the up swing and down swing it had recently. I tried to put as much information of how the system works in the chart. Hope it helps and is not to cluttered.
I will reiterate how the system works here: Everything is based off of closed price.
Legend
Uptrend: Buy
Green bar: initial start of an uptrend or uptrend continuing. Place order above that bar. If the initial bar does not stray too far from the MVWAP , I will place orders above subsequent bars if no filled occurred.
If initial start of the trend is missed, I will wait for the pullback. A pullback is a close below the MVWAP, and a close above the EMA (Low), RSI is above 50. Orders are placed above the pullback bars with plotted char "B" and also plotted green triangle up. Again orders are placed above those bars. the bars do not notate automatic buys. Don't chase anything. You will miss the initial bar on something because of news or earnings and it rocket up. Just wait, it will pullback. If it doesn't, to hell with it, on to the next.
Take profits: In the indicator you will see "T." That notates to take some profits. It is a suggestion. I was always told to take profits into spikes, as well as you can never lose money if you take profits. Up to you if you want to scale out and take the suggested profits or not.
Exit Completely: In an uptrend, close your entire position on bars colored yellow or red. (Again, closed bars)
In uptrend bars colored orange and black, do nothing, they are just pullback bars. Look for the buy pullback signal, then follow pullback buy rules for an uptrend.
Downtrend: Short
Red bar: initial start of a downtrend or downtrend continuing. Place order below the bar. If the initial bar does not stray too far fro the MVWAP, place orders below subsequent bars.
If initial start on the downtrend is missed, wait for the pullback. A pullback is a close above the MVWAP, and close below the EMA(Low). RSI is below 50. Orders are placed below the pullback bars with the plotted char "S" and also plotted red triangle. Again those bars are not automatic shorts, orders are placed below them. Don't chase anything. Wait for price to come into your plan. The idea FOMO is the stupidest thing ever, how can you miss out on something when it is always there. The market is always there and something will come into your zone. Chill.
"T": same as in uptrend, suggestion to take some profits.
Exit Completely: In a downtrend, close your entire position on bars colored orange or green.
In downtrend you will see bars colored yellow and black, do nothing, they are pullback bars. Look for the pullback short signal and follow pullback short rules.
If you have any questions get at me. Take a look at it on what you trade. Flip it through different securities.
Best of luck in all you do.
P.S. You should not take a trade right before earnings. You should also exit a trade right before earnings.

Big Snapper Alerts R2.0 by JustUncleLThis is a diversified Binary Option or Scalping Alert indicator originally designed for lower Time Frame Trend or Swing trading. Although you will find it a useful tool for higher time frames as well.
The Alerts are generated by the changing direction of the ColouredMA (HullMA by default), you then have the choice of selecting the Directional filtering on these signals or a Bollinger swing reversal filter.
The filters include:
Type 1 - The three MAs (EMAs 21,55,89 by default) in various combinations or by themselves. When only one directional MA selected then direction filter is given by ColouredMA above(up)/below(down) selected MA. If more than one MA selected the direction is given by MAs being in correct order for trend direction.
Type 2 - The SuperTrend direction is used to filter ColouredMA signals.
Type 3 - Bollinger Band Outside In is used to filter ColouredMA for swing reversals.
Type 4 - No directional filtering, all signals from the ColouredMA are shown.
Notes:
Each Type can be combined with another type to form more complex filtration.
Alerts can also be disabled completely if you just want one indicator with one colouredMA and/or 3xMAs and/or Bollinger Bands and/or SuperTrend painted on the chart.
Warning:
Be aware that combining Bollinger OutsideIn swing filter and a directional filter can be counter productive as they are opposites. So careful consideration is needed when combining Bollinger OutsideIn with any of the directional filters.
Hints:
For Binary Options try ColouredMA = HullMA(13) or HullMA(8) with Type 2 or 3 Filter.
When using Trend filters SuperTrend and/or 3xMA Trend, you will find if price reverses and breaks back through the Big Fat Signal line, then this can be a good reversal trade.

Inspiration from @vdubus
Big Snapper's Bollinger OutsideIn Swing filter in Action:
Colored Volume Bars [LazyBear]Edgar Kraut proposed this simple colored volume bars strategy for swing trading.
This is how the colors are determined:
- If today’s closing price and volume are greater than 'n' days ago, color today’s volume bar green.
- If today’s closing price is greater than 'n' days ago but volume is not, color today’s volume bar blue.
- Similarly, if today’s closing price and volume is less than 'n' days ago, color today’s volume bar orange.
- If today’s closing price is less than 'n' days ago but volume is not, color today’s volume bar red.
Buy the green or blue volume bars, use a 1% trailing stop, and stand aside on red or orange bars.
As you see, this is more for entry confirmation. I have not tested this on any instrument.
You may have to tune the lookback period for your instrument. Default is 10.

PyraTime Intraday Cycles**Concept and Methodology**
PyraTime Intraday Cycles is a technical analysis tool designed to introduce the concept of **Temporal Cycle Projection**. While most indicators analyze price action (Y-axis), this tool focuses exclusively on the X-axis (Time).
By anchoring to a specific "Origin Pivot" (a user-defined High or Low), the script projects harmonic time intervals into the future. These vertical vectors serve as a grid, helping traders identify moments where time-based cycles may align with price structure.
**Technical Features**
This edition is optimized for **Multi-Timeframe Harmonic Flows**, utilizing a fixed algorithm for key intervals:
* **Anchor Point Logic:** The user manually selects a significant market pivot. The script calculates forward projections from this exact timestamp.
* **Standard Rhythms:** This version renders the **5-minute**, **15-minute**, **1-hour**, and **Daily** harmonic sequences. This allows for analysis across scalping, intraday, and swing trading structures.
* **Visual Confluence:** The indicator draws vertical lines to highlight potential zones of temporal exhaustion or acceleration.
**How to Use**
1. **Identify a Pivot:** Locate a significant High or Low on the chart.
2. **Set the Origin:** Open the settings and input the date/time of that pivot.
3. **Analyze Confluence:** Watch how price behaves when it approaches a vertical line. If price hits a key support/resistance level *at the same time* it hits a PyraTime vertical line, this is considered a high-probability "Time/Price" intersection.
**Version Comparison**
This script represents the foundational layer of the Great Pyramid system (PyraTime Apex).
* **PyraTime Intraday Cycles (This Script):** Focuses on Standard Timeframes (5m, 15m, 1h, Daily).
* **GPM Architecture (Advanced):** The full methodology extends these calculations to Esoteric Sequences (33, 144, 108), includes 3x Cycle Extensions, and features a Predictive Dashboard for complex multi-timeframe analysis.
**Disclaimer**
This tool is for educational and analytical purposes only. It identifies time cycles, not price direction. Past performance of a time cycle does not guarantee future results.
Bitcoin vs. S&P 500 Performance Comparison**Full Description:**
**Overview**
This indicator provides an intuitive visual comparison of Bitcoin's performance versus the S&P 500 by shading the chart background based on relative strength over a rolling lookback period.
**How It Works**
- Calculates percentage returns for both Bitcoin and the S&P 500 (ES1! futures) over a specified lookback period (default: 75 bars)
- Compares the returns and shades the background accordingly:
- **Green/Teal Background**: Bitcoin is outperforming the S&P 500
- **Red/Maroon Background**: S&P 500 is outperforming Bitcoin
- Displays a real-time performance difference label showing the exact percentage spread
**Key Features**
✓ Rolling performance comparison using customizable lookback period (default 75 bars)
✓ Clean visual representation with adjustable transparency
✓ Works on any timeframe (optimized for daily charts)
✓ Real-time performance differential display
✓ Uses ES1! (E-mini S&P 500 continuous futures) for accurate comparison
✓ Fine-tuning adjustment factor for precise calibration
**Use Cases**
- Identify market regimes where Bitcoin outperforms or underperforms traditional equities
- Spot trend changes in relative performance
- Assess risk-on vs risk-off periods
- Compare Bitcoin's momentum against broader market conditions
- Time entries/exits based on relative strength shifts
**Settings**
- **S&P 500 Symbol**: Default ES1! (can be changed to SPX or other indices)
- **Lookback Period**: Number of bars for performance calculation (default: 75)
- **Adjustment Factor**: Fine-tune calibration to match specific data feeds
- **Transparency Controls**: Customize background shading intensity
- **Show/Hide Label**: Toggle performance difference display
**Best Practices**
- Use on daily timeframe for swing trading and position analysis
- Combine with other momentum indicators for confirmation
- Watch for color transitions as potential regime change signals
- Consider using multiple timeframes for comprehensive analysis
**Technical Details**
The indicator calculates rolling percentage returns using the formula: ((Current Price / Price ) - 1) × 100, then compares Bitcoin's return to the S&P 500's return over the same period. The background color dynamically updates based on which asset is showing stronger performance.
Smart MACD Divergence ScannerOriginal Base Indicator: "CM_MacD_Ult_MTF" by ChrisMoody
This indicator builds upon ChrisMoody's excellent multi-timeframe MACD foundation and transforms it into a professional divergence scanner with advanced quality assessment and filtering capabilities. The original MACD visualization and MTF functionality have been preserved while adding completely new divergence detection, scoring, and filtering systems.
🎯 What Makes This Indicator Unique:
Smart MACD Divergence Scanner is a professional tool for detecting MACD-based divergences with an advanced filtering system and signal quality assessment. Unlike standard divergence indicators, this version includes innovative features:
Adaptive Quality Scoring System — each signal receives a score from 0 to 100 based on multiple factors
Volatility Filter — automatic signal suppression during low market volatility periods
Multi-Timeframe Confirmation — divergence verification on higher timeframe for increased reliability
Divergence Strength Analysis — calculation of percentage difference between price and indicator movement
Information Dashboard — detailed real-time signal statistics
Cooldown System — prevention of multiple consecutive signals
💡 How It Works:
The indicator uses the classic divergence concept — the divergence between price movement and the MACD oscillator. However, instead of simple pivot detection, the algorithm:
Scans the market for local extremes (pivots) on price and MACD histogram
Searches for divergences — when price updates low/high while MACD shows opposite movement
Assesses quality — analyzes divergence strength, volatility, higher timeframe confirmation
Filters noise — eliminates weak signals through threshold system and cooldown
Generates signal — only when all quality criteria are met
🔧 Key Parameters:
MACD Settings: Fast Length (12), Slow Length (26), Signal Length (9)
Divergence Detection: Pivot Lookback (5), Max Lookback Range (60), Min Divergence Strength (15%)
Quality Filters: Min Quality Score (60), Volatility Filter, MTF Confirmation, Signal Cooldown (5)
📊 How to Use:
Add indicator to chart — it will automatically start scanning
Configure filters — start with default settings, then adapt to your trading style
Watch for signals: 🟢 Green "BUY" label = bullish divergence, 🔴 Red "SELL" label = bearish divergence
Check quality score on labels (Q: XX)
Use information panel to monitor statistics and current market conditions
⚙️ Settings Guide:
For swing trading (4H-Daily): Increase Pivot Lookback to 7-10, set Min Quality Score to 70+
For day trading (15m-1H): Keep default settings, enable all filters
For scalping (1m-5m): Decrease Min Quality Score to 50, disable MTF Confirmation
For volatile markets (crypto): Increase Min Divergence Strength to 20-25%, enable Volatility Filter
⚠️ Important Notes:
Divergences are probabilistic signals, not guaranteed reversals
Use additional confirmation (support/resistance levels, volume, price action)
Adjust parameters for specific asset and timeframe
Signals appear with Pivot Lookback bars delay (retrospective confirmation)
On volatile markets, increase Min Quality Score to reduce false signals
Price Action Edge Finder [PUCHON]📊 Price Action Edge Finder
The Price Action Edge Finder is a powerful quantitative tool designed to turn standard candlestick patterns into actionable statistical data. Instead of just showing where a pattern occurs, this indicator calculates the **probability of success** and **expected return** over a specific lookahead period, giving traders a statistical edge.
✨ Key Features:
- 🕯️ Comprehensive Pattern Detection: Detects 15+ classic candlestick patterns including:
- Reversal: Engulfing, Morning/Evening Star, Harami, Piercing/Dark Cloud, Tweezers, Doji Stars, Three Inside Up/Down.
- Momentum: Three White Soldiers / Three Black Crows.
- 📊 Statistical Dashboard: A real-time table displaying:
- Count: Total occurrences of each pattern.
- Prob Up/Down %: Historical probability of price moving up or down after 'n' bars.
- Avg Return %: Average percentage return for winning moves.
- 📉 Trend Filter: Optional Moving Average (SMA/EMA) filter to trade with the trend.
- Bullish patterns are only valid above the MA.
- Bearish patterns are only valid below the MA.
- Visuals: Dynamic MA color (Green/Red) and background fill to clearly show trend direction.
- ⚙️ Fully Customizable: Enable/Disable specific patterns, adjust lookahead period, change table position, and more.
🧮 How It Works:
The indicator uses a "lookback" method to calculate performance without repainting.
1. Detection: Identifies if a pattern occurred on the current bar.
2. Lookahead: Checks the price action `n` bars later (user-defined).
3. Statistics: Updates the global stats (Count, Win Rate, Avg Return) based on the outcome.
// Example: Updating stats for a Bullish Engulfing pattern
if show_bull_engulf and bull_engulf_detected
entry_price = close
exit_price = close
// Calculate % change and update probability stats
update_stats(stats_bull_engulf, entry_price, exit_price)
💡 Usage Tips:
- Use the Trend Filter to filter out low-probability counter-trend signals.
- Adjust the Lookahead Bars (n) to match your trading style (e.g., lower 'n' for scalping, higher 'n' for swing trading).
- Focus on patterns with high Prob % and Avg Return in the dashboard.
⚠️ Disclaimer:
Past performance is not indicative of future results. This tool provides historical statistics to aid decision-making but does not guarantee future profits. Always manage your risk.
