## ⚠️ Important Trading Rules
### ✅ DO:
- Wait for BOTH SFP and X marker confirmation
- Enter on price returning to the zone (not on first touch)
- Use proper position sizing (1-2% risk per trade)
- Combine with market structure analysis
- Look for confluences (orderblocks, fair value gaps)
### ❌ DON'T:
- Trade against the higher timeframe trend
- Enter without confirmation signals
- Ignore the colored zones for SL/TP placement
- Overtrade - wait for quality setups
- Move stop loss to breakeven too early

- Line thickness
---
## 📚 ICT Concepts Explained
### **Liquidity Sweep:**
Smart money intentionally pushes price beyond key levels to trigger retail stop losses, then reverses to their intended direction. The X marker identifies these moments.
### **Swing Failure Pattern (SFP):**
Price attempts to make a new high/low but lacks follow-through, indicating weak momentum and likely reversal. Similar to a "false breakout" but more specific to swing structures.
### **Supply & Demand Zones:**
- **Red zones** = Areas where selling pressure overwhelmed buyers
- **Green zones** = Areas where buying pressure overwhelmed sellers
- These zones act as magnets for price to return and react
---
## 🎓 Best Practices
1. **Confluence is Key:**
- Combine with daily/weekly bias
- Check for orderblocks nearby
- Look for imbalances (FVG)
2. **Session Timing:**
- Best during London/New York sessions
- Avoid low liquidity periods
3. **Risk Management:**
- Never risk more than 1-2% per trade
- Use proper lot sizing
- Take partial profits at key levels
4. **Timeframe Correlation:**
- Check higher timeframe for bias
- Enter on lower timeframe for precision
- Exit based on higher timeframe targets

HTF Manipulation Swing Points [Pogiest]General
HTF Manipulation Swing Points plots out relevant swings on the higher timeframes selected and draws a horizontal line anchored from the extremes of the swing point. These are important levels traders can look to base entries off of. This indicator is designed to track higher timeframe swing points on a lower timeframe. It will detect a sweep (Manipulation) or a breakout/breakdown (Failure to Manipulate) based on the higher timeframe candle close.
Usage
Depending on how the higher timeframe candles engage the relevant swing points, it can assist traders on bias and direction given the higher timeframe order-flow, lower timeframe order-flow, zones, levels, etc. Manipulation of swing points can potentially signal the start of a reversal or retracement. Failure to Manipulate swing points can potentially signal continuation of the higher timeframe current trend. It is up to the trader to gauge the price action at these levels.
How the Indicator works
1. Lines (Not engaged) - Plots out line from higher timeframe swing points and extends to the right.
2. Manipulation (M) - M label will be plotted on the swing point line that has been engaged. For example, if 1 hour timeframe was selected in settings and the 1 hour swing point line is plotted on the chart, the indicator will track the first one hour candle to engage the line and wait for the 1 hour engaging candle to close before marking it out as a Manipulation label. It is deemed to be manipulation if the 1 hour candle sweeps the level and closes back into the range.
3. Failure to Manipulate (FTM) - FTM label functions the same as Manipulation in which it waits for the swing point line to be engaged in order for a label to be printed. However, if the price does not sweep the swing point, breaks through, and closes beyond the level then it would be deemed a "Failure to Manipulate".
Note: The timeframe selected in settings will match the engaging candle. For instance, if a 4 hour timeframe is selected, the next 4 hour candle that engages the swing point level will need to close before it displays a label. In addition, this indicator is designed to view on lower timeframes with higher timeframe swing points selected in Settings.
Settings

Dynamic Swing Anchored VWAP STRAT (Zeiierman/PineIndicators)Dynamic Swing Anchored VWAP STRATEGY — Zeiierman × PineIndicators (Pine Script v6)
A pivot-to-pivot Anchored VWAP strategy that adapts to volatility, enters long on bullish structure, and closes on bearish structure. Built for TradingView in Pine Script v6.
Full credits to zeiierman.
Repainting notice: The original indicator logic is repainting. Swing labels (HH/HL/LH/LL) are finalized after enough bars have printed, so labels do not occur in real time. It is not possible to execute at historical label points. Treat results as educational and validate with Bar Replay and paper trading before considering any discretionary use.
Concept
The script identifies swing highs/lows over a user-defined lookback ( Swing Period ). When structure flips (most recent swing low is newer than the most recent swing high, or vice versa), a new regime begins.
At each confirmed pivot, a fresh Anchored VWAP segment is started and updated bar-by-bar using an EWMA-style decay on price×volume and volume.
Responsiveness is controlled by Adaptive Price Tracking (APT) . Optionally, APT auto-adjusts with an ATR ratio so that high volatility accelerates responsiveness and low volatility smooths it.
Longs are opened/held in bullish regimes and closed when the regime turns bearish. No short positions are taken by design.
How it works (under the hood)
Swing detection: Uses ta.highestbars / ta.lowestbars over prd to update swing highs (ph) and lows (pl), plus their bar indices (phL, plL).
Regime logic: If phL > plL → bullish regime; else → bearish regime. A change in this condition triggers a re-anchor of the VWAP at the newest pivot.
Adaptive VWAP math: APT is converted to an exponential decay factor ( alphaFromAPT ), then applied to running sums of price×volume and volume, producing the current VWAP estimate.
Rendering: Each pivot-anchored VWAP segment is drawn as a polyline and color-coded by regime. Optional structure labels (HH/HL/LH/LL) annotate the swing character.
Orders: On bullish flips, strategy.entry("L") opens/maintains a long; on bearish flips, strategy.close("L") exits.
Inputs & controls
Swing Period (prd) — Higher values identify larger, slower swings; lower values catch more frequent pivots but add noise.
Adaptive Price Tracking (APT) — Governs the VWAP’s “half-life.” Smaller APT → faster/closer to price; larger APT → smoother/stabler.
Adapt APT by ATR ratio — When enabled, APT scales with volatility so the VWAP speeds up in turbulent markets and slows down in quiet markets.
Volatility Bias — Tunes the strength of APT’s response to volatility (above 1 = stronger effect; below 1 = milder).
Style settings — Colors for swing labels and VWAP segments, plus line width for visibility.
Trade logic summary
Entry: Long when the swing structure turns bullish (latest swing low is more recent than the last swing high).
Exit: Close the long when structure turns bearish.
Position size: qty = strategy.equity / close × 5 (dynamic sizing; scales with account equity and instrument price). Consider reducing the multiplier for a more conservative profile.
Recommended workflow
Apply to instruments with reliable volume (equities, futures, crypto; FX tick volume can work but varies by broker).
Start on your preferred timeframe. Intraday often benefits from smaller APT (more reactive); higher timeframes may prefer larger APT (smoother).
Begin with defaults ( prd=50, APT=20 ); then toggle “Adapt by ATR” and vary Volatility Bias to observe how segments tighten/loosen.
Use Bar Replay to watch how pivots confirm and how the strategy re-anchors VWAP at those confirmations.
Layer your own risk rules (stops/targets, max position cap, session filters) before any discretionary use.
Practical tips
Context filter: Consider combining with a higher-timeframe bias (e.g., daily trend) and using this strategy as an entry timing layer.
First pivot preference: Some traders prefer only the first bullish pivot after a bearish regime (and vice versa) to reduce whipsaw in choppy ranges.
Deviations: You can add VWAP deviation bands to pre-plan partial exits or re-entries on mean-reversion pulls.
Sessions: Session-based filters (RTH vs. ETH) can materially change behavior on futures and equities.
Extending the script (ideas)
Add stops/targets (e.g., ATR stop below last swing low; partial profits at k×VWAP deviation).
Introduce mirrored short logic for two-sided testing.
Include alert conditions for regime flips or for price-VWAP interactions.
Incorporate HTF confirmation (e.g., only long when daily VWAP slope ≥ 0).
Throttle entries (e.g., once per regime flip) to avoid over-trading in ranges.
Known limitations
Repainting: Swing labels and pivot confirmations depend on future bars; historical labels can look “perfect.” Treat them as annotations, not executable signals.
Execution realism: Strategy includes commission and slippage fields, yet actual fills differ by venue/liquidity.
No guarantees: Past behavior does not imply future results. This publication is for research/education only and not financial advice.
Defaults (backtest environment)
Initial capital: 10,000
Commission value: 0.01
Slippage: 1
Overlay: true
Max bars back: 5000; Max labels/polylines set for deep swing histories
Quick checklist
Add to chart and verify that the instrument has volume.
Use defaults, then tune APT and Volatility Bias with/without ATR adaptation.
Observe how each pivot re-anchors VWAP and how regime flips drive entries/exits.
Paper trade across several symbols/timeframes before any discretionary decisions.

Multi-Confluence Swing Hunter V1# Multi-Confluence Swing Hunter V1 - Complete Description
Overview
The Multi-Confluence Swing Hunter V1 is a sophisticated low timeframe scalping strategy specifically optimized for MSTR (MicroStrategy) trading. This strategy employs a comprehensive point-based scoring system that combines optimized technical indicators, price action analysis, and reversal pattern recognition to generate precise trading signals on lower timeframes.
Performance Highlight:
In backtesting on MSTR 5-minute charts, this strategy has demonstrated over 200% profit performance, showcasing its effectiveness in capturing rapid price movements and volatility patterns unique to MicroStrategy's trading behavior.
The strategy's parameters have been fine-tuned for MSTR's unique volatility characteristics, though they can be optimized for other high-volatility instruments as well.
## Key Innovation & Originality
This strategy introduces a unique **dual scoring system** approach:
- **Entry Scoring**: Identifies swing bottoms using 13+ different technical criteria
- **Exit Scoring**: Identifies swing tops using inverse criteria for optimal exit timing
Unlike traditional strategies that rely on simple indicator crossovers, this system quantifies market conditions through a weighted scoring mechanism, providing objective, data-driven entry and exit decisions.
## Technical Foundation
### Optimized Indicator Parameters
The strategy utilizes extensively backtested parameters specifically optimized for MSTR's volatility patterns:
**MACD Configuration (3,10,3)**:
- Fast EMA: 3 periods (vs standard 12)
- Slow EMA: 10 periods (vs standard 26)
- Signal Line: 3 periods (vs standard 9)
- **Rationale**: These faster parameters provide earlier signal detection while maintaining reliability, particularly effective for MSTR's rapid price movements and high-frequency volatility
**RSI Configuration (21-period)**:
- Length: 21 periods (vs standard 14)
- Oversold: 30 level
- Extreme Oversold: 25 level
- **Rationale**: The 21-period RSI reduces false signals while still capturing oversold conditions effectively in MSTR's volatile environment
**Parameter Adaptability**: While optimized for MSTR, these parameters can be adjusted for other high-volatility instruments. Faster-moving stocks may benefit from even shorter MACD periods, while less volatile assets might require longer periods for optimal performance.
### Scoring System Methodology
**Entry Score Components (Minimum 13 points required)**:
1. **RSI Signals** (max 5 points):
- RSI < 30: +2 points
- RSI < 25: +2 points
- RSI turning up: +1 point
2. **MACD Signals** (max 8 points):
- MACD below zero: +1 point
- MACD turning up: +2 points
- MACD histogram improving: +2 points
- MACD bullish divergence: +3 points
3. **Price Action** (max 4 points):
- Long lower wick (>50%): +2 points
- Small body (<30%): +1 point
- Bullish close: +1 point
4. **Pattern Recognition** (max 8 points):
- RSI bullish divergence: +4 points
- Quick recovery pattern: +2 points
- Reversal confirmation: +4 points
**Exit Score Components (Minimum 13 points required)**:
Uses inverse criteria to identify swing tops with similar weighting system.
## Risk Management Features
### Position Sizing & Risk Control
- **Single Position Strategy**: 100% equity allocation per trade
- **No Overlapping Positions**: Ensures focused risk management
- **Configurable Risk/Reward**: Default 5:1 ratio optimized for volatile assets
### Stop Loss & Take Profit Logic
- **Dynamic Stop Loss**: Based on recent swing lows with configurable buffer
- **Risk-Based Take Profit**: Calculated using risk/reward ratio
- **Clean Exit Logic**: Prevents conflicting signals
## Default Settings Optimization
### Key Parameters (Optimized for MSTR/Bitcoin-style volatility):
- **Minimum Entry Score**: 13 (ensures high-conviction entries)
- **Minimum Exit Score**: 13 (prevents premature exits)
- **Risk/Reward Ratio**: 5.0 (accounts for volatility)
- **Lower Wick Threshold**: 50% (identifies true hammer patterns)
- **Divergence Lookback**: 8 bars (optimal for swing timeframes)
### Why These Defaults Work for MSTR:
1. **Higher Score Thresholds**: MSTR's volatility requires more confirmation
2. **5:1 Risk/Reward**: Compensates for wider stops needed in volatile markets
3. **Faster MACD**: Captures momentum shifts quickly in fast-moving stocks
4. **21-period RSI**: Reduces noise while maintaining sensitivity
## Visual Features
### Score Display System
- **Green Labels**: Entry scores ≥10 points (below bars)
- **Red Labels**: Exit scores ≥10 points (above bars)
- **Large Triangles**: Actual trade entries/exits
- **Small Triangles**: Reversal pattern confirmations
### Chart Cleanliness
- Indicators plotted in separate panes (MACD, RSI)
- TP/SL levels shown only during active positions
- Clear trade markers distinguish signals from actual trades
## Backtesting Specifications
### Realistic Trading Conditions
- **Commission**: 0.1% per trade

**Important Disclaimer**: This strategy is designed for experienced scalpers and is optimized for MSTR trading. The high-frequency nature of scalping involves significant risk. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always conduct your own analysis, consider your risk tolerance, and be aware of commission/slippage costs that can significantly impact scalping profitability.
Breakout Swing High LowThis open-source indicator identifies swing high and swing low breakouts, providing clear visual signals for potential trend entries. It is designed for traders who use price action to spot breakout opportunities in trending markets.
How It Works
Swing Detection: The indicator uses a user-defined lookback period (default: 4 candles) to identify swing highs (peaks) and swing lows (troughs). A swing high is confirmed when a candle's high is higher than the surrounding candles, and a swing low is confirmed when a candle's low is lower.
Breakout Signals: A green triangle below the candle signals a breakout above the most recent swing high, indicating a potential buy opportunity. A red triangle above the candle signals a breakout below the most recent swing low, indicating a potential sell opportunity. Each swing level triggers only one breakout signal to avoid clutter.
Visualization: Swing high levels are drawn as green dashed lines, and swing low levels as red dashed lines, extending 15 candles for clarity. Breakout signals are marked with small triangles.
How to Use
Apply the Indicator: Add the indicator to your TradingView chart.
Adjust Lookback: Set the "Lookback Candles" input (default: 4) to control the sensitivity of swing detection. Smaller values detect shorter-term swings, while larger values identify more significant levels.
Interpret Signals:
Green triangle (below candle): Consider a buy opportunity when price breaks above a swing high.
Red triangle (above candle): Consider a sell opportunity when price breaks below a swing low.
Combine with Other Tools: Use in conjunction with trend indicators (e.g., 50-period EMA) or support/resistance levels to filter signals in trending markets.
Timeframes: Works best on higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H) in trending markets to avoid false breakouts in sideways conditions.
Volume Trend Swing Points | viResearchVolume Trend Swing Points | viResearch
Conceptual Foundation and Innovation
The "Volume Trend Swing Points" script is designed to identify pivotal swing points in market trends by leveraging the Price Volume Trend (PVT) indicator. This unique approach combines price and volume movements to highlight moments when a market may experience a significant trend reversal. By detecting the highest and lowest points of the PVT over customizable periods, this script aims to provide traders with valuable insights into potential bullish or bearish market behavior.
The simplicity of the script, combined with its use of the PVT, offers an effective way for traders to anticipate key market swings based on both price and volume momentum.

The core of the "Volume Trend Swing Points" script is built around the Price Volume Trend (PVT) indicator, which adjusts price changes according to trading volume. The script focuses on identifying the highest and lowest values of the PVT over user-defined lookback periods:
Price Volume Trend (PVT): The PVT is used to calculate the momentum of price movements, taking volume into account. By incorporating both price and volume, the PVT offers a more dynamic and responsive indicator of trend direction compared to price alone.
Swing Point Detection: The script identifies the highest and lowest PVT values over user-defined lookback periods (x for highs and y for lows). When the current PVT matches either the highest or lowest value, it signals a potential trend reversal or continuation, depending on whether the high or low is detected.
Entry and Exit Signals: A long signal (bullish) is generated when the current PVT matches the highest value over the lookback period, while a short signal (bearish) is generated when the current PVT matches the lowest value. These signals can be visualized with alerts and background colors.
Features and User Inputs
The "Volume Trend Swing Points" script allows traders to customize several parameters to better suit their trading strategies and market conditions:
Lookback Periods (x and y): The script allows for two customizable lookback periods—one for detecting the highest PVT and another for the lowest. Adjusting these values can help refine the sensitivity of the swing points.
Bar Coloring: The script includes an optional setting to color the bars based on detected bullish or bearish trends, making it easier to visualize potential market shifts.
Background Colors: The background color changes dynamically based on whether a high or low swing point is detected, providing traders with a clear visual indication of potential trend reversals.
Alerts: The script includes alert conditions for both long and short signals, enabling traders to set notifications for when potential swing points are detected.
Practical Applications
The "Volume Trend Swing Points" script is ideal for traders who focus on price and volume dynamics when making trading decisions. Its application is particularly useful in the following scenarios:
Detecting Trend Reversals: By identifying the highest and lowest PVT values over a given period, the script can help traders spot potential reversal points, allowing for more timely entries or exits.
Confirming Trend Continuations: When the PVT continues to match the highest or lowest values, it may indicate that the trend is likely to continue, helping traders maintain their positions with greater confidence.
Volume-Based Trend Analysis: Since the script uses the PVT, it is particularly effective in markets where volume plays a significant role in driving price movements, offering insights that go beyond simple price-based indicators.
Advantages and Strategic Value
This script enhances traditional trend analysis by incorporating both price and volume through the PVT, providing a more comprehensive view of market momentum. The customizable lookback periods allow traders to adapt the script to different assets and timeframes, making it a versatile tool for swing trading and trend-following strategies.
The visual cues provided by bar coloring and background shading help traders quickly identify potential market shifts, improving decision-making speed and accuracy.
Summary and Usage Tips
The "Volume Trend Swing Points" script is a straightforward yet powerful tool for identifying market reversals and trend continuations based on both price and volume. By adjusting the lookback periods, traders can fine-tune the script to better suit their trading style and the assets they are monitoring. The visual and alert features further enhance the script's usability, making it easy to incorporate into a trading strategy.
Remember to backtest the script across various market conditions to better understand its performance. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results, so using this script in conjunction with other technical tools is recommended for optimal decision-making.
ZigZag Smart Trend [TradingFinder] Major & Minor Structured Wave🔵 Introduction
🟣 Zigzag
Zigzag is a lagging indicator; this indicator identifies points on a price chart that have more significant changes than its previous wave and then by connecting these lines to each other, it assists traders in trend detection.
This indicator reduces random price fluctuations and attempts to make the primary price trend clearer.
🟣 Pivot
Pivots are points where the price chart changes direction. Pivots, also called reversal points, form when supply and demand forces dominate one another.
Different types of technical analysis pivots can be introduced into two categories, minor pivots, and major pivots, each of which has a specific meaning in analysis.
Major Pivot : These pivots actually indicate major changes in the direction of the chart and occur at the end of trends. Analysts seeking to reach the primary analysis focus more on major pivot points. In fact, most technical analysis tools are examined and determined based on major pivots.
Minor Pivot : This type of pivot focuses more on small and subsidiary points and directions. Therefore, it occurs at the end of corrections. Analysts focusing on minor pivots represent small trends, and it should be noted that minor pivots are not suitable for use in primary technical tools.
How to identify minor and major pivots :
Minor pivots are pivots formed between two major pivots and fail to break the opposite major pivot.
Major pivots are pivots that have either successfully broken the opposite pivot or have moved more than the previous pivot of the same type.
🔵 How to use
Based on identifying pivots and drawing zigzag lines, you can have various uses for this indicator.

Slight Swing Momentum Strategy.Introduction:
The Swing Momentum Strategy is a quantitative trading strategy designed to capture mid-term opportunities in the financial markets by combining swing trading principles with momentum indicators. It utilizes a combination of technical indicators, including moving averages, crossover signals, and volume analysis, to generate buy and sell signals. The strategy aims to identify market trends and capitalize on price momentum for profit generation.
Highlights:
The strategy offers several key highlights that make it unique and potentially attractive to traders:
Swing Trading with Momentum: The strategy combines the principles of swing trading, which aim to capture short-to-medium-term price swings, with momentum indicators that help identify strong price trends and potential breakout opportunities.
Technical Indicator Optimization: The strategy utilizes a selection of optimized technical indicators, including moving averages and crossover signals, to filter out the noise and focus on high-probability trading setups. This optimization enhances the strategy's ability to identify favourable entry and exit points.
Risk Management: The strategy incorporates risk management techniques, such as position sizing based on equity and dynamic stop loss levels, to manage risk exposure and protect capital. This helps to minimize drawdowns and preserve profits.
Buy Condition:
The buy condition in the strategy is determined by a combination of factors, including A1, A2, A3, XG, and weeklySlope. Let's break it down:
A1 Condition: The A1 condition checks for specific price relationships. It verifies that the ratio of the highest price to the closing price is less than 1.03, the ratio of the opening price to the lowest price is less than 1.03, and the ratio of the highest price to the previous day's closing price is greater than 1.06. This condition looks for a specific pattern indicating potential bullish momentum.
A2 Condition: The A2 condition checks for price relationships related to the closing price. It verifies that the ratio of the closing price to the opening price is greater than 1.05 or that the ratio of the closing price to the previous day's closing price is greater than 1.05. This condition looks for signs of upward price movement and momentum.
A3 Condition: The A3 condition focuses on volume. It checks if the current volume crosses above the highest volume over the last 60 periods. This condition aims to identify increased buying interest and potentially confirms the strength of the potential upward price movement.
XG Condition: The XG condition combines the A1 and A2 conditions and checks if they are true for both the current and previous bars. It also verifies that the ratio of the closing price to the 5-period EMA crosses above the 9-period SMA of the same ratio. This condition helps identify potential buy signals when multiple factors align, indicating a strong bullish momentum and potential entry point.
Weekly Trend Factor: The weekly slope condition calculates the slope of the 50-period SMA over a weekly timeframe. It checks if the slope is positive, indicating an overall upward trend on a weekly basis. This condition provides additional confirmation that the stock is in an upward trend.
When all of these conditions align, the buy condition is triggered, indicating a favourable time to enter a long position.
Sell Condition:
The sell condition is relatively straightforward in the strategy:
Sell Signal: The sell condition simply checks if the closing price crosses below the 10-period EMA. When this condition is met, it indicates a potential reversal or weakening of the upward price momentum, and a sell signal is generated.
Backtest Outcome:
The strategy was backtested over the period from January 22nd, 1999 to May 3rd, 2023, using daily candlestick charts for the NASDAQ: NVDA. The strategy used an initial capital of 1,000,000 USD, The order quantity is defined as 10% of the equity. The strategy allows for pyramiding with 1 order, and the transaction fee is set at 0.03% per trade. Here are the key outcomes of the backtest:
Net Profit: 539,595.84 USD, representing a return of 53.96%.
Percent Profitable: 48.82%
Total Closed Trades: 127
Profit Factor: 2.331
Max Drawdown: 68,422.70 USD
Average Trade: 4,248.79 USD
Average Number of Bars in Trades: 11, indicating the average duration of the trades.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, the Swing Momentum Strategy is a quantitative trading approach that combines swing trading principles with momentum indicators to identify and capture mid term trading opportunities. The strategy has demonstrated promising results during backtesting, including a significant net profit and a favourable profit factor.
SPY 4 Hour Swing TraderThe purpose of this script is to spot 4 hour pivots that indicate ~30 trading day swings. As VIX starts to drop options trading will get more boring and as we get back on the bull and can benefit from swing trading strategy. Swing trading doesn't make a whole lot of sense when VIX is above 28. Seems to get best results on 4 hour chart for this one. This indicator spots a go long opportunity when the 5 ema crosses the 13 ema on the 4 hour along with the RSI > 50 and the ADX > 20 and Stoichastic values (smoothed line < 80 or line < 90) and close > last candle close and the True Range < 6. It also spots uses a couple different means to determine when to exit the trade. Sell condition is primarily when the 13 ema crosses the 5 ema and the MACD line crosses below the signal line and the smoothed Stoichastic appears oversold (greater than 60) and slop of RSI < -.2. Stop Losses and Take Profits are configurable in Inputs along with ability to include short trades plus other MACD and Stoichastic settings. If a stop loss is encountered the trade will close. Also once twice the expected move is encountered partial profits will taken and stop losses and take profits will be re-established based on most recent close. Also a VIX above 28 will trigger any open positions to close. If trying to use this for something other than SPXL it is best to update stop losses and take profit percentages and check backtest results to ensure proper levels have been selected and the script gives satisfactory results.
Price Swing Detection - Smart Money ConceptSince my own style is Smart Money Concept and these days I have seen a lot of my friends who are having trouble identifying structures for their indicators and strategies. I wrote this code so they could use it in their strategy . In fact, this type of structure, as one of the strongest technical structures, can increase the success of your strategy according to your personalization.
The script detects swings (i.e. significant highs and lows) in a financial instrument's price action over a specified period. The user can set the lookback period (number of candles to consider) and the colors of the lines representing bullish and bearish trends.
The script has two functions: detectSwing and pivot high. The detectSwing function calculates the swing highs and lows for the specified number of candles. The function uses the ta.highest and ta.lowest functions to find the highest and lowest prices, respectively, over the lookback period. The function also determines the swing state (high or low) of the current candle and returns the calculated swing values.
The pivot high function calculates the pivot high, which is an important step in detecting bullish structures in the market. If a new top (i.e. swing high) is found, the script updates the pivot high values and creates a line from the recent top to the last bar. The script also updates the trailing maximum values, which are used to extend the top extension line.
For Strategy :
The variable "trendDirection" in the code is used to keep track of the trend state, either bullish (up trend) or bearish (down trend), in the market. The variable is initialized to 0 which represents a downtrend. The value of this variable is updated later in the code based on the calculations of swing highs and lows, pivot crosses, and the trailing maximum. If a bullish structure is detected, the value of "trendDirection" is set to 1, indicating an uptrend.
Adaptive-Lookback Stochastic [Loxx]Adaptive-Lookback Stochastic is an adaptive stochastic indicator.
The Adaptive lookback is truly a market-driven period input used to determine the variable lookback period for many different indicators, instead of a traditional, fixed figure.
It is based on the frequency of market swings - the time between swing highs or swing lows. A swing high is defined as two consecutive higher highs followed by two consecutive lower highs; a swing low is defined by two consecutive lower lows followed by two consecutive higher lows. As swing points typically accompany reversals, they occur more frequently in choppier and volatile markets than in trends.
Adaptive lookback period is determined as :
Determine the initial number of swing points (swing count parameter) to use in the calculation.
Count the number of price bars it takes for the n swing points to form.
Divide step 2 by step 1 and round the result.
As an addition, adjust the "speed" of the produced period using the speed parameter - the smaller the speed parameter, the "slower" the average, and vice versa

Gann Swing Chart [One-Bar]"Gann used three types of swings chart.
One-Bar Swing Chart (1-Bar Swing Chart): The One-Bar Swing Chart, or Minor Trend Chart, follows the one-bar movements of the market. From a low price, each time the market makes a higher-high than the previous bar, a One-Bar trend line moves up from the recent low to the new high. This action makes the previous low price a One-Bar bottom. From a high price each time the market makes a lower-low than the previous bar, a One-Bar swing line moves down from the recent high to the new low. This action makes the previous high price a One-Bar top.
The combination of One-Bar tops and bottoms forms the One-Bar trend indicator chart. The crossing of a One-Bar swing top changes the One-Bar trend to up. The penetration of a One-Bar swing bottom changes the One-Bar trend to down."
This Indicator only show Gann Swing Chart use One-Bar type.
SARWThis indicator aims to indicate the correlation between two assets(Current and Base), it does NOT show entries or help your chart analysis directly.
The main features of this Correlation indicator is :
Correlation type : Direct Correlation | Inverse Correlation | No Correlation
Correlation Percentage : as its name, it calculate the Correlation Percentage between Current and base assets if exist
How to use: Chose the base asset (default: bitcoin) and open any other chart to be the other -Current- asset
inputs:
Max Lookback length : how many candles will be included in the scan.
Swing intensity : How many candle should be counted to confirm a Swing, If you are confused leave it as its default.
Base Asset : The base asset to calculate the current asset correlation with.
Important Notes:
As I promised, the previous correlation indicator used each candle alone, while this one uses waves and swings.
The Current asset has more power over the base, because it compares the Base to current, but not the opposite((E.g. if you want to check if some coin have correlation with bitcoin, it's better to use bitcoin and put the other coin name in the input field)).
For any notes on the indicator to be edited, or for another indicator ideas please comment.
PROSTRATS Pine Script for Swing TradingThis is a simple script for swing trading. It uses my 2 favorite indicators; the Choppiness Index as well as Fibonacci Retracement. This script is meant to run on the 4 hour time frame, in my case I use BTCUSD. It will buy when 2 conditions are met. The first is that the Choppiness Index is above 54.5 on the Daily Time frame, which means the price has potential to swing high or low. I used the security() function to ensure this takes place on the daily time frame because larger time frames tend to dominate smaller time frames in terms of overall swings. The second condition is that the price has to cross above the 1 level of the Fibonacci Retracement. This ensures that the swing is going to be an upwards swing, as opposed to a downwards one. The measure I took to ensure that the Fibonacci Retracement level of 1 is above the 0 level is to make sure that the r value of the 1 level is greater than the r value of the 0 level.
The sell condition is programmed to execute when either the price crosses above the 1.618 level(profit target) or cross below the 0 level(stop loss).
Bollinger Band swings - JDThis indicator takes my "BB stops" indicator and slices it up to show the different swings.
As in the original 'BB stops' indicator, you can select different ma types as a base anchor for the indicator.
This indicator can have various use cases: as a trend indicator, exit indicator, etc...

RSI Classic Strategy (by Coinrule)One of the questions hobbyist traders more often ask is: what is the perfect trading indicator?
Every indicator is just a tool, so its efficiency is proportional to your ability to read its signals and translate them into an actionable trading strategy. The RSI is likely the most flexible and easy to use among the technical indicators.
This trading strategy tries to catch short-term swings on the coins of your choice with a simple yet profitable setup.
Buy when the RSI is lower than 30 (you can adjust it to 35 in times of steep uptrend).
Sell when the RSI is greater than 65 (the target may range between 60 and 75 depending on the volatility of the coin).
Note that the buy signal comes when the indicator crosses below 30 and not when it crosses above 30 as it happens on the built-in RSI strategy on Tradingview.
The present script overperforms the built-in strategy, even adding trading fees and using a lower amount of capital for each trade (30%). That means that the system can deliver higher net-profits with lower risk levels.
A typical example of market conditions where this strategy works perfectly is as follows.
The first initial breakout indicates that a new leg up in the trend may start. Bitcoin starts to trade within a range which you can identify when it reaches the point 3. That is the perfect time to start the rule because
- trading within a channel anticipates possible swings up and down
- the trend is on the upside, providing low downside risk in buying the dips.
This strategy works well with selected coins of your choice, and it's a great fit on leverage exchanges like Binance Futures.
If you prefer to run it across all available coins on the market, instead, you may choose an optimized version.
Price Swing IndicatorThis indicator shows you the highs and lows of the previous "X" amount of bars. This is an objective way of identifying previous price swings. For example, an input of "10" will show you the Swing High (SH) of the previous 10 bars and the Swing Low (SL) of the previous 10 bars. The higher the number, the higher number of bars included in the calculation. Therefore, the higher the number, the less "noise" taken into consideration. This means that higher input values will not take into consideration smaller retracements. Lower input values will take into account small retracements within larger movements.
