Reversal Signals [LuxAlgo]The Reversal Signals indicator is a technical analysis tool that aims to identify when a trend is fading and potentially starting to reverse.
As a counter-trend tool, the Reversal Signals indicator aims to solve the problem of several technical analysis indicators that perform well during trending markets but struggle in ranging markets. By understanding the key concepts and applications of the tool, traders can enhance their market timing and improve their trading strategies.
Note: It's important to explore the settings of the indicator to customize to your own usage & display as there are various options available as covered below.
🔶 USAGE
The Reversal Signals indicator is comprised of two main phases: Momentum Phase and Trend Exhaustion Phase . These phases help identify potential trend reversals in bullish, bearish, and ranging markets.
🔹The Momentum Phase
The momentum phase consists of a 9-candle count and in rare cases 8-candle count. In a bullish trend, a starting number ‘1’ is plotted if a candle closes higher than the close of a candle four periods ago. In a bearish trend, a starting number ‘1’ is plotted if a candle closes lower than the close of a candle four periods ago.
The following numbers are plotted when each successive candle satisfies the four-period rule. The potential reversal point comes when the Reversal Signals plot a label on top of a candle in a bullish trend or at the bottom of a candle in a bearish trend. The momentum phase is immediately canceled if, at any point, a candle fails to satisfy the four-period rule.
Based on the extremes of the momentum phase, the Reversal Signals generate support & resistance levels as well as risk/stop levels.
🔹 The Trend Exhaustion Phase
The trend exhaustion phase starts after completing the momentum phase and consists of a 13-candle count. In a bullish trend exhaustion phase, each candle’s close is compared to the close of two candles earlier, and the close must be greater than the close two periods earlier. In a bearish trend exhaustion phase, each candle’s close is compared to the close of two candles earlier, and the close must be lower than the close two periods earlier.
The trend exhaustion phase does not require a consecutive sequence of candles; if the order of candles is interrupted, the trend exhaustion phase is not canceled. The trend exhaustion phase generates stronger trading signals than the momentum phase, with the potential for longer-lasting price reversals.
🔹 Trading Signals
The Reversal Signals script presents an overall setup and some phase-specific trade setup options, where probable trades might be considered. All phase-specific trade setups, presented as options, are triggered once the selected phase is completed and followed by a price flip in the direction of the trade setup.
Please note that those setups are presented for educational purposes only and do not constitutes professional and/or financial advice
- Momentum: Enter a trade at momentum phase completion, and search for buy (sell) when the bullish (bearish) momentum phase pattern is complete. Ideally, the momentum phase completion should close near its support/resistance line but shall not be above them, which indicates continuation of the trend
- Exhaustion: Enter a trade on trend exhaustion phase completion, and search for buy (sell) when the bullish (bearish) trend exhaustion phase is complete
- Qualified: Buy (sell) when a bullish (bearish) trend exhaustion phase combined with another bullish (bearish) momentum phase sequence is complete
Long trade setups are presented with "L" label and short trade setups with "S" label, where the content of the label displays details related to the probable trade opportunity
Once a phase-specific trade setup is triggered then the Reversal Signals script keeps checking the status of the price action relative to the phase-specific trade setups and in case something goes wrong presents a caution label. Pay attention to the content of the caution labels as well as where they appear. A trade signal, followed immediately by a warning indication can be assumed as a continuation of the underlying trend and can be traded in the opposite direction of the suggested signal
It is strongly advised to confirm trading setups in conjunction with other forms of technical and fundamental analysis, including technical indicators, chart/candlestick pattern analysis, etc.
🔶 DETAILS
The Reversal Signals script performs the detection of the phases by counting the candlestick meeting the specific conditions, which includes:
- Detection of the 8th and 9th candle perfection during the momentum phase
- In some cases, the 8th count will be assumed as momentum phase completion
- Trend exhaustion phase counting stops in case any type of momentum phase completion is detected during the counting process
- Postponing the last count of the trend exhaustion phase, the 13th candle must be below/above the 8th candle and if not the candles will be indicated with '+' sign under them and the script continues to search for a 13th candle at the next ones until the conditions are met
🔶 ALERTS
When an alert is configured, the user will have the ability to be notified in case;

Signal
Oscillator buy and sellThe oscillator in the provided script is a custom indicator designed to help identify choppy market conditions and generate buy and sell signals based on the direction of the price movement. It is derived from the ATR (Average True Range) and the percentage of the ATR relative to the closing price. When the ATR percentage is below the specified threshold, the market is considered choppy. In this script, the oscillator has a value of 1 when the closing price is higher than the opening price, and -1 when the closing price is lower than the opening price.
How to use the buy and sell signals:
1. Buy Signal: When the oscillator transitions from a negative value to a positive value, a buy signal is generated. This indicates that the price is moving upwards, and it might be a good opportunity to enter a long position. A green arrow will appear below the candlestick where the buy signal is generated.
2. Sell Signal: When the oscillator transitions from a positive value to a negative value, a sell signal is generated. This indicates that the price is moving downwards, and it might be a good opportunity to enter a short position or close an existing long position. A red arrow will appear above the candlestick where the sell signal is generated.
It is essential to remember that this oscillator is a simple tool and should not be solely relied upon for making trading decisions. It is recommended to use this oscillator in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and indicators to improve the accuracy of your trading decisions. Additionally, always consider your risk tolerance and trading strategy before entering or exiting trades.
Boftei's StrategyI wrote this strategy about a year ago, but decided to publish it just now. I have not been able to implement this strategy in the market. If you can, then I will be happy for you.
This strategy is based on my "Botvenko Script". (It finds the difference between the logarithms of closing prices from different days.) (Check this script in my profile)
Then the strategy makes trades when the "Botvenko Script" indicator crosses the levels set earlier and manually selected for each currency pair/shares: long/short opening/closing levels, long/short re-entry levels. (They are drawn with horizontal dotted lines.) The names of these lines are: buy/sell level, long/short retry - too low/high, long close up/down, dead - close the short. Manual selection of each of the parameters provides a qualitative entry of the strategy into the deal. However, without restraining mechanisms, the strategy enters into rather controversial deals. In order to avoid going long/short during bear/bull markets, which is unacceptable, I added a fan of EMA lines.
The fan consists of several EMA lines, which are set according to Fibonacci numbers (21, 55, 89, 144). If the lines in the fan are arranged in ascending order (ema_21>ema_55 and ema_55>ema_89 and ema_89>ema_144), then this indicates a bull market, during which I banned shorting. And vice versa: during the bear market (ema_21<ema_55 and ema_55<ema_89 and ema_89<ema_144) I banned long trading. If these two inequalities are not met, then this indicates that the market is flat, and during it it is allowed to enter any transactions, because a flat is a good moment to catch massive movements in the future by entering a transaction. (This is all visualized using semi-transparent thick lines of green, yellow and red colors.)
By default, all parameters are adjusted for the btc/usd (bitstamp) pair. Best of all, the strategy shows itself if 1 candle = 1 day.
At the time of writing, on the pair btcusd (bitstamp) (1d) with pyramiding = 1, the strategy shows a profit of 64728896%. If pyramiding is increased by 1, then the profit will be greater, but I still prefer pyramiding = 1.
There is a possibility that my strategy is doing complete nonsense. I don't vouch for her.
If you select parameters for other pairs of currencies/stocks, then you should not change anything in the fan of lines.
That's all, probably.
Long & Short / Bullish & Bearish & Neutral / Sentiment LONG and SHORT signal generation:
The LONG and SHORT signals in this script are generated based on a combination of sentiment, price strength, and volume strength calculations. The following parameters and calculations are used in determining these signals:
Sentiment:
The sentiment is calculated using a Simple Moving Average ( SMA ) of the SMO (oscillator) over a specified sentiment_length.
Price Strength:
The price strength is calculated as the percentage change in the closing price compared to the previous closing price.
Volume Strength:
The volume strength is calculated as the percentage change in the trading volume compared to the previous trading volume .
Custom Oscillator:
This oscillator is calculated as the difference between price strength and volume strength, followed by calculating its SMA over a specified strength_length.
The LONG signal is triggered when:
The sentiment_diff (difference between the oscillator and the SMA oscillator) is greater than 0, and the close price is greater than the fast EMA ( Exponential Moving Average ) of the close price, OR
The custom oscillator crosses over its SMA , and the close price is greater than the open price, and the close price of the previous period is greater than the close price of two periods ago.
The SHORT signal is triggered when:
The sentiment_diff is less than 0, and the close price is less than the fast EMA of the close price, OR
The custom oscillator crosses under its SMA , and the close price is less than the open price, and the close price of the previous period is less than the close price of two periods ago.
Color change description:
The color change in this script is based on the relationship between the close price and the highest/lowest SMAs of the high/low price over a specified lengthInputRoR. The following colors are used:
Green:
Bullish area (close price is greater than the highest SMA of the high price)
Red:
Bearish area (close price is less than the lowest SMA of the low price)
Yellow:
Neutral area (close price is between the highest and lowest SMAs of the high and low prices)
Color meaning description:
Yellow (Neutral Area):
This color indicates that the close price is between the highest and lowest SMAs of the high and low prices, signaling more caution and uncertainty in the market.
Green ( Bullish Area):
This color represents a bullish market condition where the close price is greater than the highest SMA of the high price, suggesting a higher probability of a successful LONG position.
Red ( Bearish Area):
This color signifies a bearish market condition where the close price is less than the lowest SMA of the low price, indicating a higher probability of a successful SHORT position.
Support and Resistance lines explanation:
Support and resistance lines are calculated based on the highest and lowest prices over a specified number of periods. These lines are used to identify significant price levels where the market may experience increased buying or selling pressure.
Resistance:
The resistance line is calculated using the highest high price over a specified number of periods. This line represents a price level where selling pressure is expected to increase, making it more difficult for the price to rise further. Traders often consider resistance levels as potential entry points for SHORT positions or exit points for LONG positions.
Support:
The support line is calculated using the lowest low price over a specified number of periods. This line represents a price level where buying pressure is expected to increase, making it more difficult for the price to fall further. Traders often consider support levels as potential entry points for LONG positions or exit points for SHORT positions.
The resistance and support lines are plotted using different colors to help traders visualize the important price levels where the market may experience a reversal or consolidation.
Final Words:
This script provides LONG and SHORT signals and alerts based on a combination of sentiment, price strength, and volume strength calculations. It is designed to serve as a high-quality aid for executing well-informed trading ideas. However, it's important to note that the LONG and SHORT signals and alerts generated by this script should not be considered as trading advice. Traders should always conduct their own research and analysis before making any trading decisions. The script aims to assist in visualizing important market trends and price levels, helping traders make more informed decisions based on their personal trading strategies.
SLSMA PullbacksThis script picks up two types of pullbacks using the SLSMA line. The pb1 signal picks up a fast first pullback as price action breaks the SLSMA line. The pb2 signal detects a stronger pivot with the trend. There is an option to filter pb1 signals with trend in the settings. Lower highs and Higher lows are displayed as labels along the SLMSA line. This tool can be overlaid on your chart or over an indicator using it as its external source.

DojiCandle body size RSI-SMMA filter MTF
Hi. I was inspired by a public script written by @ahmedirshad419, .
I thank him for his idea and hard work.
His script is the combination of RSI and Engulfing Pattern.
//------------------------------------------------------------
I decided to tweak it a bit with Open IA.
I have changed:
1) candle pattern to DojiCandle Pattern;
2) I added the ability for the user to change the size of the candlestick body;
3) Added SMMA 200;
4) Changed the colour of SMMA 200 depending on price direction;
5) Added a change in the colour of candlesticks, depending on the colour of the SMMA 200;
6) Added buy and sell signals with indicator name, ticker and close price;
7) Added ability to use indicator on multi time frame.
How it works
1. when RSI > 70 > SMMA 200 and form the bullish DojiCandle Pattern. It gives sell signal
2. when RSI < 30 < SMMA 200 and form the bearish DojiCandle Pattern. It gives buy signal
settings:
basic setting for RSI, SMMA 200 has been enabled in the script to set the levels accordingly to your trades

[TTI] Whaley Breadth Thrust––––History & Credit
The Whaley Breadth Trust is a powerful signal that has a great success rate. It was invented by Wayne Whaley in 2009. Since 1970 to 2009, the signal has occured only 12 times!
–––––What it does
The indicator uses 3 conditions.
Condition 1: The Advancing and Declining NYSE stocks
Condition 2: The Up and Down volume
Condition 3:The absolute price increase in the SP500
It calculates different ratios and determine bullish or bearish setting based on this.
When only conditions 1 and 2 are present, we call this a Light Thrust. When all 3 conditions have occured then we call this Full Thrust.
–––––How to use it
Consider very bullish signal when you see this.
The light thrust occured on 12JAN23 on the SPX.
The signal occured in the following years: 1974, 1982, 1987, 2002, 2008
Buy Sell Signal ScannerThis is a higher timeframe scanner that detects whether the market is bullish or bearish according to our Buy Sell Indicator on up to 8 different timeframes. It can also be customized to scan different tickers so you can scan tickers that typically move with or against the ticker you are trading for extra confirmation. The scanner can be configured to use the exact same settings that you use with the Buy Sell Indicator so everything is using the same formula.
For price action identification, scalp mode looks at the candle body, candle wicks and size of the body and wicks and compares all of that to the previous candle to see if it is bullish or bearish. Swing mode will compare the current candle to the last 2 candles and long swing mode will compare the current candle to the last 10 candles. It’s looking for higher highs & lower lows, if the candle body is large or small and much more.
There are also filters that prevent signals from being given when the candle is small or has not made a higher high or lower low compared to the previous candle and multiple other filters to help hold positions longer. Once the price action direction has been confirmed, then the script looks at a massive amount of other calculations to determine if a signal should be given or not. These calculations are made up of all of my best indicators combined into a master signal generator as well as more new calculations from things I have learned over time and tested extensively that have not been made available to the public until now.
Price action as well as many other factors will all have to be confirming the direction before a signal can come in, but it reacts very quickly so it can give early signals at the first sign of reversal. Fine tune your settings to match your Buy Sell Indicator settings to get the same signals on the scanner.
HOW TO USE
The scanner will show the higher timeframe in a table on the side of the chart if no other ticker is selected to scan. The timeframe cell will show as green if that timeframe is currently in a bullish signal and red if that timeframe is currently in a bearish signal. If you set it to use a different ticker, the ticker name and timeframe will show up in the table.
The defaults are set up to scan the same ticker as your chart but on higher timeframes. It is set up for a 1 minute chart by default, but each timeframe can be adjusted to suit your preference all the way up to a 1 year timeframe.
You can set the scanner to look at different tickers as well which is very useful for getting confirmation by setting it to scan other tickers that usually move in the same direction or opposite of the ticker you are trading.
TRADE MODE
The signal settings allow you to match the scanner settings to your settings on the Buy Sell Indicator. There is scalp mode, swing mode and long swing mode. All 3 settings use the same calculations for signals, but they have different price action filters to help hold swings longer. Scalp mode will only be looking at the current bar compared to the previous bar, but swing mode will look at the current bar compared to the previous 2 candles. Long swing mode will compare the current candle to the last 10 candles to hold positions even longer.
There is also a candle trailing length that can be adjusted as well to suit your preference. This adds a filter that ensures the current candle is closing higher than the previous X number of candles you choose for a bull signal and is closing lower than X number of previous candles for a bear signal. Make sure to match these settings to how your Buy Sell Indicator is configured to get matching results.
You can also move the position of the scanner table to any part of the chart in the settings menu at the bottom.
ALERTS
There are alerts set up that will give you a signal when all timeframes are bullish on candle close and another signal that will alert when all timeframes are bearish on candle close. There is also an alert for when the first 4 timeframes & ticker are bullish and the last 4 timeframes & ticker are bearish or the opposite. This is useful for looking at forex markets and setting the first 4 to tickers that move together and the last 4 to tickers that move opposite.
MARKETS
This Buy Sell Signal Scanner can be used on any market with price data such as stocks, crypto, forex and futures.
TIMEFRAMES
This Buy Sell Signal Scanner can be used on any timeframe. And will scan any of our available timeframes between 1 minute and 1 year.
PAIRINGS
We recommend pairing this Buy Sell Signal Scanner with our Buy Sell Indicator so you can get signals and price action colored candles on the ticker you are trading and then use the scanner for confirmation of trend on higher timeframes and trade with the trend.
Buy Sell IndicatorThis Buy Sell Indicator uses price action calculations to determine the bullish or bearish nature of the current market and then calculates if the price action is strong enough to give a signal. The indicator is fully adjustable so you can fine tune it to fit your specific trading style with Scalp Mode, Swing Mode, Long Swing Mode and candle trailing length. It also has an automatic trailing stop loss and take profit features that can be customized.
For price action identification, scalp mode looks at the candle body, candle wicks and size of the body and wicks and compares all of that to the previous candle to see if it is bullish or bearish. Swing mode will compare the current candle to the last 2 candles and long swing mode will compare the current candle to the last 10 candles. It’s looking for higher highs & lower lows, if the candle body is large or small and much more.
There are also filters that prevent signals from being given when the candle is small or has not made a higher high or lower low compared to the previous candle and multiple other filters to help hold positions longer. Once the price action direction has been confirmed, then the script looks at a massive amount of other calculations to determine if a signal should be given or not. These calculations are made up of all of my best indicators combined into a master signal generator as well as more new calculations from things I have learned over time and tested extensively that have not been made available to the public until now.
Price action as well as many other factors will all have to be confirming the direction before a signal can come in, but it reacts very quickly so it can give early signals at the first sign of reversal. Fine tune your settings to match your trading style from within the input settings and then look for potential reversal areas and take signals that appear in that reversal area for the highest probability of winning trades. I decided not to include any support or resistance or similar tools in order to keep the indicator lightweight and respond as fast as possible as well as update the candles as quickly as possible. This also lets you keep your charts clean and only use the support & resistance tools that you prefer since everyone has a different trading style.
HIGHER TIMEFRAME AND/OR MARKET SCANNER
There is also a higher timeframe scanner available as a separate indicator titled Buy Sell Signal Scanner that you can find on my profile. It can be customized to show you up to 8 higher timeframes of your current ticker or any other ticker you like. This is useful for trading with the trend of the higher timeframes or you can set it to the same timeframe as your chart and scan other tickers that usually move together or opposite for extra confirmation. Each ticker/timeframe will be displayed in a table on the chart and colored green or red depending if it is currently bullish or bearish. If you are using a different timeframe than the current chart, then it will display the timeframe next to the ticker name.
HOW TO USE
CANDLES
The candles will paint blue or orange according to the price action detected. This can be customized or turned on/off and will follow the price action according to the trade mode settings. Using these candle colors helps to get rid of anxiety when watching candles come in that are in the opposite direction of your trade. I highly recommend using this feature as it helps you control your emotions much better during trading.
TRADE MODE
The trade mode settings let you choose between Scalp Mode, Swing Mode and Long Swing mode. They all use the same price calculations, but each mode has its own filters to hold through ranging price action in a slightly different way. You can also adjust the candle trailing length to make it hold positions even longer. The candle trailing length will not let a signal come in until there is a higher high or lower low than the previous X number of candles from this setting.
Scalp mode will get you in and out of positions the earliest. Swing mode will hold signals longer by filtering out ranging price action. Long swing mode uses even more filtering to hold positions even longer than swing mode and let price range more without calling out every move. Each one of these modes will also be affected by the candle trailing length.
It should be noted that using swing mode and long swing mode or increasing the candle trailing length will make the signals not perform as well when price action is whipsawing up and down and also will not have as early of entries and exits as scalp mode due to the range breaks that are needed for a signal to be given. That being said, it will hold positions much longer when markets are trending and still have great entries and exits, so use the longer settings when markets are trending and then switch to scalp mode when the market is chopping around and moving sideways for best results.
Scalp Mode
Swing Mode
Long Swing Mode
STOPLOSS
There is an automatic stoploss feature as well. It calculates the average candle height and adds/subtracts that from the highest high or lowest low of the past X number of candles according to your Stoploss Candle Trail Length. Use a lower number for a tight trailing stoploss and increase the number for a more loose stoploss. You can also customize the color of the stoploss line and label or turn it off if you prefer. The stoploss will update on every candle for proper trailing but it will not switch to an opposing signal until the candle closes with a new signal.
TAKE PROFIT
There is an automatic take profit level generator as well that also uses the average candle height for its calculations. There are 3 settings that let you set the average candle size multiplier for each take profit level. The default settings are evenly spaced at 3, 6 and 9 times the average candle height from where the most recent signal locked in at candle close. Adjust these numbers to suit your preference. You can also customize the color of the take profit lines and label or turn it off if you prefer. The take profit levels will not change to an opposing signal until the opposing signal is confirmed on the candle close.
Auto Stoploss & Take Profit
SIGNALS
The default signals are green and red arrows. The color can be adjusted in the settings or you can turn the bull or bear signals on or off if you only want entry signals for the direction of the trend.
VOLUME SPIKE SUPPORT & RESISTANCE
There are volume based auto support & resistance levels that are off by default, but can be turned on in the settings. It calculates the average volume over multiple periods and gets the average of that and then looks for volume spikes that were greater than the average, multiplied by the volume spike multiplier in the settings. If set to 3, then the volume spike will need to be 3 times or higher than the average volume bar for a level to show up. Increase or decrease this number to get more or less levels.
VOLUME WARNING
If volume is very low compared to normal, then a volume warning label will appear at the top of the chart letting you know that volume is very low and to trade with caution. I recommend not trading during those times though as price can whipsaw very easily.
ALERTS
There are also alerts that can be triggered for buy signals as well as sell signals. They are set to only send signals when the bar is confirmed so you won’t get alerts for signals that repaint while the candle is still open. You can use these alerts to send signals to your own trading bot if you choose to.
MARKETS
This buy sell indicator can be used on any market with price data such as stocks, crypto, forex and futures.
TIMEFRAMES
This buy sell indicator can be used on any timeframe.
PAIRINGS
We recommend pairing this Buy Sell Indicator with our Buy Sell Signal Scanner so you can check other timeframes and trade with the trend or use the scanner to look at other markets that move together or opposite of the ticker you are trading for extra confirmation of direction.
Alex trading stragedyOverview
This script, named "ALEX TRADING STRATEGY", is a technical trading strategy designed for new investing groups. It uses a combination of various technical indicators to identify potential buying and selling opportunities in the market. The script includes the Relative Strength Index (RSI), Simple Moving Averages (SMA), Exponential Moving Averages (EMA), and Higher High Lower Low (HHLL) strategies to create a complete trading solution.
The user can change the position from long to short in the Input Settings. The script uses bar colors to indicate the current trading position. The script also has exit strategies to help manage the open trades. The user can also set the period for the various indicators used in the strategy.
The script provides various technical indicators and entry/exit signals to make the trading decision easier for the user. It also includes pivot lines, resistance and support levels to help the user make a more informed decision.
This Pine script implements a multi-indicator trading strategy that combines several technical analysis techniques for making trading decisions. The script uses the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to determine overbought and oversold conditions in the market and plots the RSI values on the chart. The RSI values above 70 are considered overbought and plotted as red upward triangles, while the RSI values below 30 are considered oversold and plotted as green downward triangles.
The script also calculates Simple Moving Averages (SMAs) with the user-defined period and plots them along with the Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) of 20, 50, and 100 periods. Based on the crossover of the close price and the moving averages, the script enters long or short trades. The script sets the trade exit conditions as the low or high crossing the lower or upper band, respectively.
In addition to the moving average crossover, the script uses the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined period to determine long and short entries. The script plots the long and short conditions on the chart as green upward and red downward triangles, respectively. The script allows the user to switch between long and short trades by changing the input settings.
Finally, the script changes the bar colors based on the trade direction, with green bars indicating a long trade, red bars indicating a short trade, and blue bars indicating no trade. Overall, this Pine script provides a comprehensive trading strategy that combines several technical analysis techniques to make informed trading decisions.
HOW TO USE
Input Settings: In the Input Settings section, you can change the long to short position. You can also change the period value (default is 10) used to calculate the Simple Moving Average (SMA) for the Keltner channel.
Indicators: The script uses RSI (Relative Strength Index) with 14 periods as well as multiple EMAs (Exponential Moving Averages) with periods 20, 50, and 100 to help in making trading decisions.
Entry Signals: The script uses two main entry signals: (1) Keltner Channel and (2) HHLL (High-Low). When the closing price crosses above the upper band of the Keltner channel, the script generates a long signal, and when the closing price crosses below the lower band of the Keltner channel, the script generates a short signal. The HHLL strategy generates a long signal when the current high crosses above the highest high of the last "nPeriod" bars, and generates a short signal when the current low crosses below the lowest low of the last "nPeriod" bars.
Exit Signals: The script uses two exit signals: (1) Stop Loss based on Keltner channel and (2) Profit Target based on Keltner channel. The script exits the long position when the closing price crosses below the lower band of the Keltner channel, and the script exits the short position when the closing price crosses above the upper band of the Keltner channel.
To use this script, you will need to have access to a trading platform that supports PineScript, such as TradingView, and attach the script to a chart. The script will then automatically generate entry and exit signals based on the rules described above. It's important to note that this script is just a tool and not a guarantee of profit. As with any trading strategy, it's important to thoroughly test and understand the script before using it for live trading.
Signal ViewerThe "Signal Viewer" script is a debugging tool that can be used for the signal of a Signal Indicator script like the "Two MA Signal Indicator" or the "Template Signal Indicator". This script will visualize the signal based on the convention that was defined in the settings. Also, alerts will be produced based on this convention. It's useful to be used before you connect the signal indicator script to a template strategy like the "Template Trailing Strategy" script. You can cross-validate the correctness of the signal that the indicators emit and make sure it is aligned with the expected behavior after the decomposition of the signal using the convention described in the settings. Please make sure that the connection in the "Signal Viewer" script matches the convention used by the template strategy script.
Strength Index I2-SIIdea:
Enhance the Stoch RSI with DMI to get the visualization of the strength movement.
Concept:
(Note that we take the close to get the closing price).
-Combination of 2 Stoch RSI (using value K): 1 is UP, 1 is DOWN (these settings have been customized).
-Every time they cross, it calculates the direction of 3 nearly previous crossings to get the color of the current line.
-The value has been re-calculated with the processed value from ADX and DI- (That's why it can be more than 100 or -100 in some cases).
-RSI Overbuy and oversell are removed because the value could be beyond it.
How it works:
1. The line is show as the strength index of bars
- Green means the up strength is strong.
- Red means the down strength is strong.
- Gray means the previous strength is getting week.
2. This one can be used to find divergence.
3. This indicator provides a warning signal when the color of the line changes:
- Change color:
+Turn red: "Down Red"
+Turn green: "Up Green"
+Turn gray: "Down Gray"/"Up Gray"
Suitable time frames:
15m, 4h, 1D, 1W
* Please note that this logic does not attempt to predict future prices or 100% accurate signal.

Trend Movement S1-TMIdea:
This script combines: Moving Average (MA), Directional Movement (DMI), MACD
When condition of long or short position from all mentioned indicator are met script opens position. Once trend changes, it closes the position.
Then add some filter conditions to avoid noise.
Concept:
(Note that we take the close to get the closing price)
-Using only cross up down with MA will give a reversal point, but the downside is that it can be noisy.
-MACD will show the current trend detected by cross point.
-Then the +DI , -DI , ADX values are taken into account to confirm the price direction and movement strength.
-This strategy solves this problem by combining 2 more moving averages called 2 trend lines 1 long and 1 short. When the short line crosses up, it will show that the price trend is increasing (at this time the background between these 2 lines will be green) and vice versa (red). To determine if the current trend is bullish or bearish . This will avoid buying when price tend to go down.
-However, there will be many points where some more complex logic is needed. It will add conditions and calculate the probabilities before triggering the signals (You can see them through the item symbols B1, B2, ... ).
How it works:
1. The thin line is stand for short term moving average, and the thick line is stand for long term moving average.
If thin lines cross the thick lines, their color and background will turn green, the price is tend to go up (Uptrend).
If thin lines cross down thick lines, their color and background will turn red, the price is tend to go down (Downtrend).
2. Ability to check the checkbox in setting to show the Golden/De*ath cross.
The yellow symbol "+" is the Golden cross.
The black symbol "+" is the De*th cross.
3. Buy and Sell are show clearly on strategy as the buy and sell point. The default source from bar is CLOSE
4. Setting "Buy only" it using for spot market.
5. When "Not buy in down trend" is checked, it will not trigger buy when in down trend (thin lines cross down thick lines like description in 1.)
6. Setting High spread will call Close buy when it match the High spread bar with the High spread % value
7. It provides setting "Back test From date/To date" for backtest feature. You can set "BacktestFrom date" as the begin of test period. If check box "Using To Date" is check: "Backtest To Date" will be the end of test period.
Suitable time frames:
4h, 1D, 1W
* Please note that this logic does not attempt to predict future prices or 100% accurate signal; Strategy Tester are available to test the profitability of this strategy.

Signal AnalyzerThis library contains functions that try to analyze trading signals performance.
Like the % of average returns after a long or short signal is provided or the number of times that signal was correct, in the inmediate 2 candles after the signal.
MarsMine_PEMTThis indicator uses a total of four indicators, 'ParabolicSAR', 'EMA', 'MACD', and 'TSI', to indicate the direction of the trend as well as the progress signal of the trend.
Basically, the overall trend is analyzed by the 'EMA' and 'TSI' indicators, and the buying trend is displayed in green and the selling trend is displayed in red candlesticks.
An additional buy or sell signal is generated, which analyzes all the 'Parabolic SAR', 'EMA', 'MACD' and 'TSI' indicators to indicate the beginning of a trend that is slightly more accurate than the trend displayed on candlesticks.
-----
해당 지표는 'ParabolicSAR', 'EMA', 'MACD', 'TSI' 총 네 가지 지표를 활용하여 추세의 방향성과 함께 추세의 진행 신호를 알려주는 지표입니다.
기본적으론 전반적인 추세는 'EMA', 'TSI' 지표를 분석하여 매수 추세는 초록색 매도 추세는 빨간색으로 캔들에 표시해 주고 있습니다.
추가적으로 매수 또는 매도 신호가 발생하며, 이 신호는 'Parabolic SAR', 'EMA', 'MACD', 'TSI' 지표 모두를 분석하여 캔들에 표시되는 추세보다 조금 더 정확한 추세의 시작을 표시합니다.
MarsMine_OverThis indicator marks the area where the overbought/oversold section of the Stochastic RSI and the overbought/oversold section of the RSI overlap with arrows.
If an upward arrow appears on the indicator, it can be recognized that both StoRSI and RSI have entered the oversold zone.
When a down arrow appears, both the StoRSI and RSI can be considered to have entered the overbought zone.
This is a good signal to identify the direction of the future trend.
이 지표는 Stochastic RSI의 과매수/과매도 구간과 RSI의 과매수/과매도 구간이 겹치는 구간을 화살표로 표기 해주는 지표 입니다.
해당 지표에서 상승 화살표가 출현할 경우에는 StoRSI와 RSI 모두 과매도 구간에 진입했다고 인식할 수 있으며,
하락 화살표가 출현할 경우에는 StoRSI와 RSI 모두 과매수 구간에 진입했다고 인식할 수 있습니다.
이는 추후 추세의 방향성을 파악할 수 있는 좋은 시그널 입니다.
Band of Filtered RS by Mustafa ÖZVERBand of Filtered RS by Mustafa ÖZVER
This code shows a range (max-min values) price may get if we get strong movements. These values is based on RSI (Relative Strange Index). And also these are calculated using RSI, if we get trades to make rsi is equal to 25 (or rsi down limit) or 75 (rsi up limit) or any value you set, how much will price value get? This code calculate these and shows these to you on graph.
This price are between these band limits because we expect cross reaction to hard movements on price.
For scalping, we can use these values as
long signal when price under down limit,
short signal when price over up limit,
But only these values can not guarantee good results for trading. BE CAREFUL
HeikinAshi / MS-Signal (HA-MS)Hello?
Traders, welcome.
If you "Follow", you can always get new information quickly.
Please also click "Boost".
Have a good day.
-------------------------------------
I would like to take the time to explain the indicators needed for trading among the two indicator formulas previously disclosed.
The HA-MS indicator is an indicator created using the Heikin Ashi formula and the MACD formula.
Therefore, the reliability of the indicator is considered to be high.
If you want a comprehensive indicator, you can share the chart being published as an idea and use the MRHAB-T indicator.
The shared indicators can be used without any restrictions if you are a paid member of TradingView.
(Free members have many restrictions on sharing charts.)
The MS-Signal indicator using MACD is an indicator composed of M-Signal and S-Signal lines.
I made it possible to display the M-Signal line of the 1D, 1W, and 1M charts separately so that the trend can be checked on other timeframe charts.
Therefore, by looking at the 15m chart or 1h chart to check the overall trend when trading, we prevented getting caught up in temporary volatility, that is, a whipsaw, and made this M-Signal line to be used as support and resistance.
If you touch these M-Signal lines when a surge or plunge occurs, it means that there is a high possibility of indicating support or resistance.
If the 5EMA line on the 1D chart rises above the 5EMA line enough to be called a soaring moving average, it means that there is a high possibility of a sudden movement.
Therefore, the 5EMA line of the 1D chart is displayed separately so that it can be checked in time frames other than 1D (15m, 1h charts, etc.).
This 5EMA line can also be used as support and resistance like the M-Signal line of the 1D, 1W, and 1M charts described above.
The MS-Signal indicator is for viewing trends.
So, if the price stays above the MS-Signal indicator and the MS-Signal indicator turns into a bullish sign, it means that the uptrend is likely to continue.
Conversely, if the price stays below the MS-Signal indicator and the MS-Signal indicator turns to a bearish sign, then the downtrend is likely to continue.
Therefore, even if it temporarily rises above the MS-Signal indicator, it cannot be said that it will show an uptrend unless it is converted to an uptrend.
So, when the price surges and rises above the MS-Signal indicator, it is important to hold the price until the MS-Signal indicator turns into an uptrend.
If the HA-Low line or HA-High line is passing through these movements, you should respond by looking at whether you are supported or resisted on these lines.
The HA-Low line and the HA-High line are lines created for trading using Heikin Ashi candles.
Therefore, it can be interpreted that if it is supported by the HA-Low or HA-High line, it is highly likely to show an uptrend.
However, since the HA-Low and HA-High lines are calculated together with the RSI indicator, they are displayed on the chart as interactions.
The HA-Low line is a line created near the low point,
The HA-High line is a line created near the high point.
Therefore, if it shows support at the HA-Low line, it is time to buy.
And, if the price rises and rises above the HA-High line, it is likely to show a sharp movement.
Because of this movement, the HA-Low line is called the buy line, and the HA-High line is called the soaring line.
Since the HA-High line is a soaring line, if it is resisted by the HA-High line, it also means that there is a high possibility of a sharp decline.
If you see support at the HA-High line, you can buy it, but as I said, it is a sharp rise line, so you have to respond from a short-term perspective.
The Heikin Ashi body indicator is significant as it marks the first trend reversal.
So, you can see the first reversal move, either when the price first makes a move from a downtrend to an uptrend, or when the price first makes a move from an uptrend to a downtrend.
For example, if the price is in a downtrend and stops falling and moves sideways or rises slightly, the Heikin Ashi body indicator is likely to turn into an uptrend.
If this turns into a bullish sign, aggressive buying is possible.
However, since there is a high possibility that it will not rise higher and fall immediately, it is better to think of a trading strategy when it shows support by rising above the 5EMA line, HA-Low line, and MS-Signal indicator.
Let's assume that from an uptrend in price, the Heikin Ashi body indicator turns to a downtrend.
Then, if you touch the 5EMA line, the HA-High line, and the MS_Signal indicator, I think you can buy some time to think about a selling strategy.
-------------------------------------------------- -
It doesn't matter how you trade and what tools you use.
What matters is whether you can create a trading strategy.
We tend to spend more time on analysis like chart analysis, economic analysis.
Also, many analytical techniques are studied to do this kind of analysis.
I have spent a lot of time studying various analysis techniques and putting a lot of effort into using them in trading.
However, I realized that acquiring all of these things did not make me a good trader.
The indicators released today also do not mean much in reality.
It merely provides minimal information for creating a trading strategy.
I think it is better to put aside the idea of investing a lot of time in chart analysis and economic analysis and proceeding with trading.
Instead, I recommend spending a lot of time thinking about how to buy at the point or section you are trading, how to sell if the price rises, and how to stop loss if the price falls.
Quickly learn that learning difficult analytical techniques doesn't make you profitable on your trades.
I hope you understand.
An analytical technique or tool that allows you to earn a steady income is the best technique.
Creating a trading strategy is not difficult.
It's just that it feels difficult because I haven't organized my thoughts until now.
trading strategy
1. Investment period
2. Investment scale
3. Trading method and profit realization method
You just need to think in order and then start trading.
The most important thing in this trading strategy is the investment period.
The most important thing is whether to trade the coin (token) you want to trade by investing for a period such as the same day, short term, mid term, or long term.
This is because even though this first button is not connected properly, the following fund management and trading methods are all wrong.
I hope the day will come soon when you can play with the movement of the chart and get away from wrestling with the chart.
thank you.

Davin's 10/200MA Pullback on SPY Strategy v2.0Strategy:
Using 10 and 200 Simple moving averages, we capitalize on price pullbacks on a general uptrend to scalp 1 - 5% rebounds. 200 MA is used as a general indicator for bullish sentiment, 10 MA is used to identify pullbacks in the short term for buy entries.
An optional bonus: market crash of 20% from 52 days high is regarded as a buy the dip signal.
An optional bonus: can choose to exit on MA crossovers using 200 MA as reference MA (etc. Hard stop on 50 cross 200)
Recommended Ticker: SPY 1D (I have so far tested on SPY and other big indexes only, other stocks appear to be too volatile to use the same short period SMA parameters effectively) + AAPL 4H
How it works:
Buy condition is when:
- Price closes above 200 SMA
- Price closes below 10 SMA
- Price dumps at least 20% (additional bonus contrarian buy the dip option)
Entry is on the next opening market day the day after the buy condition candle was fulfilled.
Sell Condition is when:
- Prices closes below 10 SMA
- Hard stop at 15% drawdown from entry price (adjustable parameter)
- Hard stop at medium term and long term MA crossovers (adjustable parameters)
So far this strategy has been pretty effective for me, feel free to try it out and let me know in the comments how you found :)
Feel free to suggest new strategy ideas for discussion and indicator building
Candlestick Pattern Criteria and Analysis Indicator█ OVERVIEW
Define, then locate the presence of a candle that fits a specific criteria. Run a basic calculation on what happens after such a candle occurs.
Here, I’m not giving you an edge, but I’m giving you a clear way to find one.
IMPORTANT NOTE: PLEASE READ:
THE INDICATOR WILL ALWAYS INITIALLY LOAD WITH A RUNTIME ERROR. WHEN INITIALLY LOADED THERE NO CRITERIA SELECTED.
If you do not select a criteria or run a search for a criteria that doesn’t exist, you will get a runtime error. If you want to force the chart to load anyway, enable the debug panel at the bottom of the settings menu.
Who this is for:
- People who want to engage in TradingView for tedious and challenging data analysis related to candlestick measurement and occurrence rate and signal bar relationships with subsequent bars. People who don’t know but want to figure out what a strong bullish bar or a strong bearish bar is.
Who this is not for:
- People who want to be told by an indicator what is good or bad or buy or sell. Also, not for people that don’t have any clear idea on what they think is a strong bullish bar or a strong bearish bar and aren’t willing to put in the work.
Recommendation: Use on the candle resolution that accurately reflects your typical holding period. If you typically hold a trade for 3 weeks, use 3W candles. If you hold a trade for 3 minutes, use 3m candles.
Tldr; Read the tool tips and everything above this line. Let me know any issues that arise or questions you have.
█ CONCEPTS
Many trading styles indicate that a certain candle construct implies a bearish or bullish future for price. That said, it is also common to add to that idea that the context matters. Of course, this is how you end up with all manner of candlestick patterns accounting for thousands of pages of literature. No matter the context though, we can distill a discretionary trader's decision to take a trade based on one very basic premise: “A trader decides to take a trade on the basis of the rightmost candle's construction and what he/she believes that candle construct implies about the future price.” This indicator vets that trader’s theory in the most basic way possible. It finds the instances of any candle construction and takes a look at what happens on the next bar. This current bar is our “Signal Bar.”
█ GUIDE
I said that we vet the theory in the most basic way possible. But, in truth, this indicator is very complex as a result of there being thousands of ways to define a ‘strong’ candle. And you get to define things on a very granular level with this indicator.
Features:
1. Candle Highlighting
When the user’s criteria is met, the candle is highlighted on the chart.
The following candle is highlighted based on whether it breaks out, breaks down, or is an inside bar.
2. User-Defined Criteria
Criteria that you define include:
Candle Type: Bull bars, Bear bars, or both
Candle Attributes
Average Size based on Standard Deviation or Average of all potential bars in price history
Search within a specific price range
Search within a specific time range
Clarify time range using defined sessions and with or without weekends
3. Strike Lines on Candle
Often you want to know how price reacts when it gets back to a certain candle. Also it might be true that candle types cluster in a price region. This can be identified visually by adding lines that extend right on candles that fit the criteria.
4. User-Defined Context
Labeled “Alternative Criteria,” this facet of the script allows the user to take the context provided from another indicator and import it into the indicator to use as a overriding criteria. To account for the fact that the external indicator must be imported as a float value, true (criteria of external indicator is met) must be imported as 1 and false (criteria of external indicator is not met) as 0. Basically a binary Boolean. This can be used to create context, such as in the case of a traditional fractal, or can be used to pair with other signals.
If you know how to code in Pinescript, you can save a copy and simply add your own code to the section indicated in the code and set your bull and bear variables accordingly and the code should compile just fine with no further editing needed.
Included with the script to maximize out-of-the-box functionality, there is preloaded as alternative criteria a code snippet. The criteria is met on the bull side when the current candle close breaks out above the prior candle high. The bear criteria is met when the close breaks below the prior candle. When Alternate Criteria is run by itself, this is the only criteria set and bars are highlighted when it is true. You can qualify these candles by adding additional attributes that you think would fit well.
Using Alternative Criteria, you are essentially setting a filter for the rest of the criteria.
5. Extensive Read Out in the Data Window (right side bar pop out window).
As you can see in the thumbnail, there is pasted a copy of the Data Window Dialogue. I am doubtful I can get the thumbnail to load up perfectly aligned. Its hard to get all these data points in here. It may be better suited for a table at this point. Let me know what you think.
The primary, but not exclusive, purpose of what is in the Data Window is to talk about how often your criteria happens and what happens on the next bar. There are a lot of pieces to this.
Red = Values pertaining to the size of the current bar only
Blue = Values pertaining or related to the total number of signals
Green = Values pertaining to the signal bars themselves, including their measurements
Purple = Values pertaining to bullish bars that happen after the signal bar
Fuchsia = Values pertaining to bearish bars that happen after the signal bar
Lime = Last four rows which are your percentage occurrence vs total signals percentages
The best way I can explain how to understand parts you don’t understand otherwise in the data window is search the title of the row in the code using ‘ctrl+f’ and look at it and see if it makes more sense.
█ [b}Available Candle Attributes
Candle attributes can be used in any combination. They include:
[*}Bodies
[*}High/Low Range
[*}Upper Wick
[*}Lower Wick
[*}Average Size
[*}Alternative Criteria
Criteria will evaluate each attribute independently. If none is set for a particular attribute it is bypassed.
Criteria Quantity can be in Ticks, Points, or Percentage. For percentage keep in mind if using anything involving the candle range will not work well with percentage.
Criteria Operators are “Greater Than,” “Less Than,” and “Threshold.” Threshold means within a range of two numbers.
█ Problems with this methodology and opportunities for future development:
#1 This kind of work is hard.
If you know what you’re doing you might be able to find success changing out the inputs for loops and logging results in arrays or matrices, but to manually go through and test various criteria is a lot of work. However, it is rewarding. At the time of publication in early Oct 2022, you will quickly find that you get MUCH more follow through on bear bars than bull bars. That should be obvious because we’re in the middle of a bear market, but you can still work with the parameters and contextual inputs to determine what maximizes your probability. I’ve found configurations that yield 70% probability across the full series of bars. That’s an edge. That means that 70% of the time, when this criteria is met, the next bar puts you in profit.
#2 The script is VERY heavy.
Takes an eternity to load. But, give it a break, it’s doing a heck of a lot! There is 10 unique arrays in here and a loop that is a bit heavy but gives us the debug window.
#3 If you don’t have a clear idea its hard to know where to start.
There are a lot of levers to pull on in this script. Knowing which ones are useful and meaningful is very challenging. Combine that with long load times… its not great.
#4 Your brain is the only thing that can optimize your results because the criteria come from your mind.
Machine learning would be much more useful here, but for now, you are the machine. Learn.
#5 You can’t save your settings.
So, when you find a good combo, you’ll have to write it down elsewhere for future reference. It would be nice if we could save templates on custom indicators like we can on some of the built in drawing tools, but I’ve had no success in that. So, I recommend screenshotting your settings and saving them in Notion.so or some other solid record keeping database. Then you can go back and retrieve those settings.
#6 no way to export these results into conditions that can be copy/pasted into another script.
Copy/Paste of labels or tables would be the best feature ever at this point. Because you could take the criteria and put it in a label, copy it and drop it into another strategy script or something. But… men can dream.
█ Opportunities to PineCoders Learn:
1. In this script I’m importing libraries, showing some of my libraries functionality. Hopefully that gives you some ideas on how to use them too.
The price displacement library (which I love!)
Creative and conventional ways of using debug()
how to display arrays and matrices on charts
I didn’t call in the library that holds the backtesting function. But, also demonstrating, you can always pull the library up and just copy/paste the function out of there and into your script. That’s fine to do a lot of the time.
2. I am using REALLY complicated logic in this script (at least for me). I included extensive descriptions of this ? : logic in the text of the script. I also did my best to bracket () my logic groups to demonstrate how they fit together, both for you and my future self.
3. The breakout, built-in, “alternative criteria” is actually a small bit of genius built in there if you want to take the time to understand that block of code and think about some of the larger implications of the method deployed.
As always, a big thank you to TradingView and the Pinescript community, the Pinescript pros who have mentored me, and all of you who I am privileged to help in their Pinescripting journey.
