Range Detector [LuxAlgo]The Range Detector indicator aims to detect and highlight intervals where prices are ranging. The extremities of the ranges are highlighted in real-time, with breakouts being indicated by the color changes of the extremities.
🔶 USAGE
Ranging prices are defined by a period of stationarity, that is where prices move within a specific range.
Detecting ranging markets is a common task performed manually by traders. Price breaking one of the extremities of a range can be indicative of a new trend, with an uptrend if price breaks the upper range extremity, and a downtrend if price breaks the lower range extremity.
Ranges are highlighted as zones and are set retrospectively, that is the starting point of a range is offset in the past. The exact moment a range is detected is highlighted by a gray background color. The average between the maximum/minimum of a zone is also highlighted as a dotted line and is also set retrospectively.
The range extremities are set in real-time, blue extremities indicate the range extremities were not broken, green extremities indicate that price broke the upper range extremity, while red extremities indicate price broke the lower range extremity.
Extremities are extended until a new range is detected, allowing past ranges extremities can be used as future support/resistances.
🔶 DETAILS
The detection algorithm used to detect ranges tests if all the prices within a user-set window are all within two extremities. These extremities are determined by the mean of the detection window plus/minus an ATR value.
When a new range is detected, the script checks if this new range overlaps with a previously detected range, if this is the case, both ranges are merged into one; updating the extremities of the previous range.
This can be observed with the real-time extremities changing within a highlighted zone.
🔶 SETTINGS
Minimum Range Length: Minimum amount of bars needed to detect a range.
Range Width: Multiplicative factor for the ATR used to detect new ranges. Lower values detect ranges with a lower width. Using higher values might return false positives.
ATR Length: ATR length used to determine the range width.
Breakout
Range Breakout Signals (Intrabar) [LuxAlgo]The Range Breakout Signals (Intrabar) is a novel indicator highlighting trending/ranging intrabar candles and providing signals when the price breaks the extremities of a ranging intrabar candles.
🔶 USAGE
The indicator highlights candles with trending intrabar prices, with uptrending candles being highlighted in green, and down-trending candles being highlighted in red.
This highlighting is affected by the selected intrabar timeframe, with a lower timeframe returning a more precise estimation of a candle trending/ranging state.
When a candle intrabar prices are ranging the body of the candle is hidden from the chart, and one upper & lower extremities are displayed, the upper extremity is equal to the candle high and the lower extremity to the candle low. Price breaking one of these extremities generates a signal.
The indicator comes with two modes, "Trend Following" and "Reversal", these modes determine the extremities that need to be broken in order to return a signal. The "Trend Following" mode as its name suggests will provide trend-following signals, while "Reversal" will aim at providing early signals suggesting a potential reversal.
🔶 DETAILS
To determine if intrabar prices are trending or ranging we calculate the r-squared of the intrabar data, if the r-squared is above 0.5 it would suggest that lower time frame prices are trending, else ranging.
This approach allows almost obtaining a "settings" free indicator, which is uncommon. The intrabar timeframe setting only controls the intrabar precision, with a timeframe significantly lower than the chart timeframe returning more intrabar data as a result, this however might not necessarily affect the displayed information by the indicator.
🔶 SETTINGS
Intrabar Timeframe: Timeframe used to retrieve the intrabar data within a chart candle. Must be lower than the user chart timeframe.
Auto: Select the intrabar timeframe automatically. This setting is more adapted to intraday charts.
Mode: Signal generation mode.
Filter Out Successive Signals: Allows removing successive signals of the same type, returning a more easily readable chart.
The Opening Range / First Bar By Market Mindset - Zero To EndlesThe script shows the opening range of the instrument based on different resolutions and timeframes.
Inputs :
1. Resolution
It decides the calculation frequency of the script.
In Auto resolution, Standard values have been used.
2. Timeframe
It decides the timeframe for the OHLC values.
By default, it will use the chart timeframe and so chart OHLC values.
3. Lookback
It decides the no. of ranges shown on the chart.
Middle Line can be hidden from the settings.
The script can be used for any instrument and on any timeframe.
If price is above the opening range or the middle line, a trader should look for long opportunities.
If price is below the opening range or the middle line, a trader should look for short opportunities.
A sideways or choppy move is exoected if Middle line is crossed again and again.
For trading, wait for atleast 1st bar to close. and let the opening range build up first.
Happy Trading
blackOrb ZoneBuying near the bottom and selling near the peak can be a challenging trading approach. However, it all begins with the ability to identify these essential zones. This indicator is targeting support and resistance with heightened accuracy. It utilizes features like:
I. Multi-Level Weighting for Enhanced Support and Resistance Zones
II. Vertical Zone Range Adjustment for Enhanced Price Level Identification
III. High-Time Frame for Solid Macro Validation
IV. Projection Function for Informed Trade Management
V. Automatic Level Identification for Pinpointing Potential Order Positions
VI. Customizable Pivot Analysis for Accurate Zone Identifications
Technical Methodology
I. Multi-Level Weighting for Enhanced Support and Resistance Zones
Support and resistance are more accurately represented as wider zones rather than singular lines. In practical application, relevant support or resistance levels often converge around a central mean-weighted level within a zone.
This indicator visually represents these zones by calculating values from open, high, low, and close prices, accentuating them through varying opacities. Higher opacity within an area indicates a higher likelihood of it serving as a relevant support or resistance level.
Multiple mean options within the settings menu encompass weighted average calculations that utilize different combinations of price data within the relevant pivot analysis phase. This versatility allows users to target pertinent levels within a zone. For instance, when employing hlcc4 price data, the calculation is as follows:
mean_price_hlcc4 = (high + low + close + close) / 4
II. Vertical Zone Range Adjustment for Enhanced Price Level Identification
This feature enables users to precisely adjust the vertical zone range for price references within potential support or resistance phases. For instance, decreasing the reference setting results in a more granular validation within a narrower range. This creates vertically thinner zones with increased price level precision, although it may offer a less comprehensive perspective.
III. High-Time Frame for Solid Macro Validation
The indicator enhances pivot points, potentially in conjunction with high-time frame validation, to identify significant price zones with heightened confirmation strength driven by volume. Higher time frames provide more extensive volume verification, for instance, comparing the 4-hour to the 24-hour timeframe (a multiple of six).
This feature involves cross-referencing data from higher time frames, heightening the reliability of support and resistance zones and providing valuable insights into potential trading interest levels.
Technically, the indicator applies the identical rigorous analysis to both lower and higher time frames. This approach facilitates a more comprehensive perspective and aids in the clearer identification of overarching macro support and resistance levels, even when focusing on smaller timeframes. For instance, a potential support zone identified on the daily time frame can gain higher confidence when confirmed on a weekly chart.
IV. Projection Function for Informed Trade Management
The projection function visually extends the most recent analysis of support and resistance zones forward, in accordance with the user's configured parameters.
By displaying precise price values at these visualized support and resistance levels, this indicator offers valuable assistance in decision-making, particularly when planning real-time orders or when engaged in an active trade management phase (e.g., for the purpose of adjusting stop-loss levels post-entry).
Note: This function is based on historical data. It may not account for unforeseen market events. It's important to complement this feature with ongoing analysis of real-time market data.
V. Automatic Level Identification for Pinpointing Potential Order Positions
It is empirically observed that traders frequently position orders at price levels that conform to quantized values due to cognitive biases.*
Consequently, blackOrb Zone not only facilitates the identification of pertinent levels within a weighted zone but also features an "auto" functionality designed to analyze price dynamics in the proximity of these relevant levels. The objective is to identify discrete values in close vicinity, which exhibit a higher likelihood of serving as authentic support and resistance zones.
This processing approach assists traders in precisely locating the central mean-weighted level within a given zone and identifies proximate quantized levels.
Note: This method becomes especially relevant during phases of price retesting, where market participants converge, contributing to a further refinement of levels, indicative of an asymmetric balance between supply and demand.

VI. Customizable Pivot Analysis for Accurate Zone Identifications
The indicator employs pivot points to pinpoint key price zones where price dynamics could encounter buying or selling pressure.
Essential components of this method involve comparing time units both to the left and right within a designated phase of support or resistance, effectively defining the search range for pivotal points.
For instance, in the analysis below, the search is for the highest price point that hasn't been surpassed within a certain resistance zone in the last 10 time units to the left and 10 time units to the right:

Potential Trade Management Applications of blackOrb Zone
- Reversal Trading : Robust support zones with bullish signals can indicate opportune moments for buying or long position entries, whereas confirmed resistance zones can be identified for selling or short position entries.
- Breakout Trading : Anticipating price surges as price breach support or resistance level. A resistance breakout can signal a bullish price dynamic, while a support breakdown may suggest a bearish price dynamic.
- Range Trading : In lateral sideways markets, users can capitalize on support zones for buying and resistance zones for selling, profiting from price fluctuations.
- Take-Profit Management : For buying or long positions, resistance zones can be identified to determine suitable take-profit levels either within or near these zones - for short positions, vice versa with support zones.
- Stop-Loss Management : For buying or long positions, support zones can be identified to determine appropriate stop-loss levels beneath these zones - for short positions, vice versa with resistance zones to determine stop-loss levels above these zones.
Note on Usability
blackOrb Zone can have synergies with blackOrb Price as both indicators combined can give a bigger picture for supporting comprehensive and multifaceted data-driven trading analysis.
This tool was meticulously created to serve as an additional frame for the seamless integration of other more granular trading indicators. This indicator isn't intended for standalone trading application. Instead, it is serving as a supplementary tool for orientation within broader trading strategies.
Irrespective of market conditions, it can harmonize with a wider range of trading styles and instruments / trading pairs / indices like Stocks, Gold, FX, EURUSD, SPX500, GBPUSD, BTCUSD and Oil.
Inspiration and Publishing
Taking genesis from the inspirations amongst others provided by TradingView Pine Script Wizard Kodify, blackOrb Zone is a multi-encompassing script meticulously forged from scratch. It aspires to furnish a comprehensive approach, borne out of personal experiences and a strong dedication in supporting the trading community. We eagerly await valuable feedback to refine and further enhance this tool.
Buy/Sell BoxThis indicator tries to identify the points where the price exceeds or falls below a rectangle based on the opening and closing prices of the previous period, the creation of the boxes occurs when a doji is detected therefore it will calculate the coordinates of the rectangle that will be drawn around it, therefore the indicator offers buy or sell signals based on this logic. Specifically, the buy signal is generated if the closing price is above the top of the rectangle and satisfies some previous price conditions while the sell signal is generated if the closing price is below the bottom of the rectangle and satisfies some conditions of previous prices within a further threshold based on the Ema 150.
Lines are then drawn on the graph to visually display the extreme price levels, which can be useful for any confirmation of buy and sell signals, Stop Loss and Take Profit, Trend Filter (to visually understand if the trend is bullish or bearish)
A potentially effective trading strategy could involve identifying buy and sell signals near the extreme price level lines drawn by the indicator. This approach can be used to try to improve the accuracy of your trading signals and make more informed decisions. For example:
When you receive a buy or sell signal based on the dojis and rectangles generated by the indicator, check whether the price is also near one of the extreme price level lines. If you are receiving a buy signal and notice that the current price is near a low of the lower level line, this may further confirm the buying opportunity, as the price is near a significant resistance level. On the contrary, if the sell signal was close to a maximum price level it could confirm an excellent short entry.
It is also possible to use the boxes as reference points to set the stop loss and take profit levels. If you are entering a buy position, you might consider setting your stop loss just below an upper line of the last box. Additionally, you may want to set your take profit near a higher price level if you are looking to maximize profits. This will help manage risks and protect your capital.
TrendCylinder (Expo)█ Overview
The TrendCylinder is a dynamic trading indicator designed to capture trends and volatility in an asset's price. It provides a visualization of the current trend direction and upper and lower bands that adapt to volatility changes. By using this indicator, traders can identify potential breakouts or support and resistance levels. While also gauging the volatility to generate trading ranges. The indicator is a comprehensive tool for traders navigating various market conditions by providing a sophisticated blend of trend-following and volatility-based metrics.
█ How It Works
Trend Line: The trend line is constructed using the closing prices with the influence of volatility metrics. The trend line reacts to sudden price changes based on the trend factor and step settings.
Upper & Lower Bands: These bands are not static; they are dynamically adjusted with the calculated standard deviation and Average True Range (ATR) metrics to offer a more flexible, real-world representation of potential price movements, offering an idea of the market's likely trading range.
█ How to Use
Identifying Trends
The trend line can be used to identify the current market trend. If the price is above the trend line, it indicates a bullish trend. Conversely, if the price is below the trend line, it indicates a bearish trend.
Dynamic Support and Resistance
The upper and lower bands (including the trend line) dynamically change with market volatility, acting as moving targets of support and resistance. This helps set up stop-loss or take-profit levels with a higher degree of accuracy.
Breakout vs. Reversion Strategies
Price movements beyond the bands could signify strong trends, making it ideal for breakout strategies.
Fakeouts
If the price touches one of the bands and reverses direction, it could be a fakeout. Traders may choose to trade against the breakout in such scenarios.
█ Settings
Volatility Period: Defines the look-back period for calculating volatility. Higher values adapt the bands more slowly, whereas lower values adapt them more quickly.
Trend Factor: Adjusts the sensitivity of the trend line. Higher values produce a smoother line, while lower values make it more reactive to price changes.
Trend Step: Controls the pace at which the trend line adjusts to sudden price movements. Higher values lead to a slower adjustment and a smoother line, while lower values result in quicker adjustments.

Support and Resistance Signals MTF [LuxAlgo]The Support and Resistance Signals MTF indicator aims to identify undoubtedly one of the key concepts of technical analysis Support and Resistance Levels and more importantly, the script aims to capture and highlight major price action movements, such as Breakouts , Tests of the Zones , Retests of the Zones , and Rejections .
The script supports Multi-TimeFrame (MTF) functionality allowing users to analyze and observe the Support and Resistance Levels/Zones and their associated Signals from a higher timeframe perspective.
This script is an extended version of our previously published Support-and-Resistance-Levels-with-Breaks script from 2020.
Identification of key support and resistance levels/zones is an essential ingredient to successful technical analysis.
🔶 USAGE
Support and resistance are key concepts that help traders understand, analyze and act on chart patterns in the financial markets. Support describes a price level where a downtrend pauses due to demand for an asset increasing, while resistance refers to a level where an uptrend reverses as a sell-off happens.
The creation of support and resistance levels comes as a result of an initial imbalance of supply/demand, which forms what we know as a swing high or swing low. This script starts its processing using the swing highs/lows. Swing Highs/Lows are levels that many of the market participants use as a historical reference to place their trading orders (buy, sell, stop loss), as a result, those price levels potentially become and serve as key support and resistance levels.
One of the important features of the script is the signals it provides. The script follows the major price movements and highlights them on the chart.
🔹 Breakouts (non-repaint)
A breakout is a price moving outside a defined support or resistance level, the significance of the breakout can be measured by examining the volume. This script is not filtering them based on volume but provides volume information for the bar where the breakout takes place.
🔹 Retests
Retest is a case where the price action breaches a zone and then revisits the level breached.
🔹 Tests
Test is a case where the price action touches the support or resistance zones.
🔹 Rejections
Rejections are pin bar patterns with high trading volume.
Finally, Multi TimeFrame (MTF) functionality allows users to analyze and observe the Support and Resistance Levels/Zones and their associated Signals from a higher timeframe perspective.
🔶 SETTINGS
The script takes into account user-defined parameters to detect and highlight the zones, levels, and signals.
🔹 Support & Resistance Settings
Detection Timeframe: Set the indicator resolution, the users may examine higher timeframe detection on their chart timeframe.
Detection Length: Swing levels detection length
Check Previous Historical S&R Level: enables the script to check the previous historical levels.
🔹 Signals
Breakouts: Toggles the visibility of the Breakouts, enables customization of the color and the size of the visuals
Tests: Toggles the visibility of the Tests, enables customization of the color and the size of the visuals
Retests: Toggles the visibility of the Retests, enables customization of the color and the size of the visuals
Rejections: Toggles the visibility of the Rejections, enables customization of the color and the size of the visuals
🔹 Others

Consolidation Spotter Multi Time FrameThis tool is designed for traders looking to spot areas of consolidation on their charts across various time frames. It highlights these consolidation areas using visually appealing boxes, making it easier to identify potential breakout or breakdown zones.
How To Use:
Spotting Consolidation: When you see a box form on your chart, this represents a consolidation zone. Within this zone, the price is moving sideways without a strong upward or downward trend.
Anticipating Breakouts & Breakdowns: Watch the price as it approaches the edges of the box. A movement outside the box can signal a potential breakout (if above the box) or a breakdown (if below the box). This is where momentum shifts can happen.
Momentum Confirmation: Once the price clearly moves out of the box, it indicates a momentum shift. If the price moves upwards out of the box, this can be seen as bullish momentum. Conversely, if the price moves downwards out of the box, this can be seen as bearish momentum.
To use the tool effectively, adjust the settings to suit your trading style, choose your preferred visual theme, and watch as the script highlights key consolidation areas on your chart.
Tip: To visualize fractals, consider using multiple instances of the "Consolidation Spotter" indicator, each set to a different timeframe. This approach allows you to observe consolidations nested within larger consolidations, offering deeper insights into market structures. 😉
Support Resistance BreakthroughThe Support Resistance Breakthrough (SRB) is a comprehensive technical indicator that aims to evaluate market strength and detect potential breakout opportunities. It integrates the following elements:
ADX (Average Directional Index): Helps measure the overall trend strength. You can adjust both the ADX length and smoothing length.
ATR (Average True Range): Provides a measure of market volatility.
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Measures the momentum and helps identify overbought or oversold conditions.
Weighting Scheme: The weighting scheme adds or subtracts a fraction of the ROC of RSI, modulated by ATR and ADX. The weighting percentage can be customized.
Normalization Option: Allows the user to plot normalized values, scaling them between 0 and 100.
Horizontal Lines: Useful reference lines at 0, 50, and 100, displayed when normalization is used.
Interpretation: When the indicator is above the 0 line (or 50 when normalized), there's a high chance of breaking through resistance. Conversely, when it's below the 0 line, there's a high chance of breaking through support. Together with a momentum indicator, such as RSI and/or Stochastic RSI, this indicator functions excellently.
The combination of these elements makes the SRB an adaptable tool for various trading strategies. It can help identify potential breakout or breakdown areas and gauge the underlying strength of the market.
Compatibility with Adjustable Fibonacci Retracement Indicator: Together with the SRB indicator, the AFIBR can make it easier to determine the likelihood of breaking through support or resistance.
mrD-Flip Zone(None repaint) [1.0]This indicator provides Flips Zones, to easily observe price action and the user can evaluate reversal zones.
This indicator also includes warnings when flip zones appear.
🔶 SETTINGS
- Current-Timeframe: Hide/Show Flips Zones in the current time frame.
- High-Timeframe: Hide/Show Flips Zones in the High time frame.
- Current Timeframe (color): Color Display Flips Zones in the current time frame.
- High Timeframe (color): Color Display Flips Zones in the current time frame.
🔶 The logic is described below:
The main characteristic that this indicator has is that it is possible to identify zones where prices can react.
The second feature that shows the best use of this indicator is that it shows the flips area of the larger timeframe in the current timeframe.
This indicator also acts as support and resistance levels.
This script is based on the function of Pivot High Low.
- New Pivot Low is identify
- New Pivot High is to identify
- New Pivot Low lower previous Pivot Low
- Upper Line of the Flips Zone is the high-price previous Pivot Low
- Lower Line of the Flips Zone is the low-price new Pivot Low
=>Flips box will be marked on the chart in the current time frame and the Flips box in the high time frame
*Special feature: the Flips box order shows different time frames.
🔶 USAGE
The Flips Zones are displayed by the script to provide can price reversal zones.
At Flips Zones, prices can reverse or continue the trend.
The Flips Zones are displayed by the script to provide price can reversal zones.
Once the Flips Zone is formed, the price action could retest. Can expect a price reversal or continue the trend.
The Flip Zones of the higher timeframe are displayed in the current timeframe according to the user's settings.
If the Flip Zones on the current timeframe and the Flip Zones on the higher timeframe overlap, Price can retest and reverse the trend quickly.
The trend can be determined by looking at the price position relative to the flips zone box. Price breaking out of flip zones is a sign of a downtrend, while price breaking above supply is a sign of an uptrend.
Note: This indicator is Non-repaint.
This indicator is great to use in confluence with other indicators or with various candlestick patterns.
Remember, don't make decisions based only on the one-time frame. Check the overall trend of the stock and look at Flip Zone in the high time frame.

Strategy - Relative Volume GainersStrategy - Relative Volume Gainers
Overview:
This trading strategy, called "Relative Volume Gainers," is designed for Long Entry opportunities in the stock market. The strategy aims to identify potential trading candidates based on specific technical conditions, including volume, price movements, and indicator alignments.
Strategy Rules:
The strategy is focused solely on Long Entry positions.
The volume for the current trading day must be greater than or equal to the volume of the previous day.
The percentage change in price must be greater than or equal to 2.5%.
The Last Traded Price (LTP) must be greater than or equal to the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) 200.
The Relative Volume for the current trading day (calculated over the last 30 days) must be greater than or equal to the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of Relative Volume over the same 30 days.
The current candle on the chart should be Green or Bullish, indicating positive price movement.
The price difference between bid and ask prices should be kept to a minimum.
It's recommended to also analyze market depth for better insights.
Strategy Requirements:
Add the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) 200 to your trading chart.
This strategy can be applied on charts of any timeframe.
For intraday trading, particularly for early entry, consider using a 1-minute timeframe.
It is advisable to create a screener to identify potential trades in real-time market conditions.
Risk Warning:
Stocks that meet the strategy criteria might exhibit high volatility and a high beta, making them inherently risky to trade. Exercise caution and adhere to predetermined risk management strategies.
Determine your trading quantity based on your entry price and stop loss in order to manage risk effectively.
Quantity Calculation Formula:
Quantity calculation is crucial to manage risk and position sizing. The following formulas can be used based on your trading scenario:
Quantity with Leverage:
Quantity = (((Using Capital / 100) * Risk Percent) / (Entry Price - Stop Loss)) * Leverage
Eg: Quantity = (((10000 / 100) * 0.2) / (405.5 - 398.5)) * 5
Quantity = 14
Risk = Rs.100 (Rs.100 is 1% of Rs.10000. So the risk is 1%, means we lose only Rs.100 when the SL is hit. If SL is increased the Quantity will get reduced to maintain a fixed risk of Rs.100)
Quantity without Leverage:
Quantity = (((Using Capital / 100) * Risk Percent) / (Entry Price - Stop Loss))
Note:
Always stay informed about market conditions and be prepared for potential rapid price movements when trading stocks that meet the strategy criteria. Strictly adhere to your predefined risk management strategy to safeguard your capital.
Sublime Trading | Donchian Breakout SignalsWhat kind of traders/investors are we?
We are trend followers. Our scripts are designed to be used on the higher timeframes (weekly/daily) to catch the large moves/trends in the market.
Most have heard of long-term trend following. Few know how to execute the strategy.
Our scripts are designed specifically to identify and invest in long-term market trends.
What does this script do?
It produces entry signals in a confirmed bull and bear trend.
The logic is based on Donchian 20, which serves the following two purposes:
1. Confirms end-of-day entry points in a long-term trend
2. Filters out entry points in a sideways market
The signal is produced on a break and close of the Donchian 20 high in a bull trend and a break and close of the Donchian 20 low in a bear trend.
How is the entry price produced?
The entry is based on a percentage value of the range of the breakout bar added to the high of the bar in a bull trend.
In a bear trend, the percentage is subtracted from the low of the bar.
This gives an objective entry when placing a position once the OHLC of a bar is confirmed at the end of the trading day.
How is the stoploss price produced?
The script uses the formula ATR 15 x 4.
We use ATR as it produces a stoploss which is unique to the volatility of the asset. The more volatile the asset, the wider the stoploss.
We use ATR 15 as it brings an average reading across half a month, incorporating days of extreme volatility.
The multiplier 4 works well to avoid positions being stopped out prematurely on pullbacks.
When the stoploss is hit, there is when traders and investors may consider exiting positions.
What is the best timeframe to use the script?
We recommend the daily timeframe as this is where trader and investors identify and enter long-term market trends.
The higher timeframes are where traders and investors take fewer positions but hold for longer time periods.
As a result, trend followers place priority on the quality of the entry rather than quantity.
What makes this script unique?
This script has been coded specifically for the daily timeframe to:
Highlight the start of a potential long-term trends.
Confirm entry points at the end of the trading day, absorbing intraday noise.
Reduce fake breakouts in a trend.
Continue to create entry points as the trend develops to allow for compounding.
Filter out breakouts in a sideways market.
This entry signal script helps traders and investors focus on the quality of a potential position when investing in long-term market trends.
Previous Day High Low Strategy only for LongWelcome to the "Previous Day High Low Strategy only for Long"!.

Explanation of how the strategy works
1. Previous Day's High and Low (HH, LL):
In this strategy, we start by obtaining the high and low prices of the previous day (not the current day) using the request.security function. This function allows us to access historical data for a specific time frame. The high and low prices are stored in the variables HH and LL, respectively.
2. Entry Conditions:
The strategy uses two conditions to trigger a long position:
Condition 1 (Long Condition 1): If the closing price of the current day crosses above the previous day's high (HH), it generates a long signal. This is achieved using the ta.crossover function, which detects when a crossover occurs.
Condition 2 (Long Condition 2): Similarly, if the closing price of the current day crosses above the previous day's low (LL), it also generates a long signal.
Combined Condition: To take long positions, the strategy combines both long conditions using the logical OR operator (or). This means that if either of the two conditions is met, a long position will be initiated.
3. Market Strength Filter:
The strategy also includes a filter based on the Average Directional Index (ADX) to gauge the market's strength before taking long positions. The ADX measures the strength of a trend in the market. The higher the ADX value, the stronger the trend.
Calculation of ADX: The ADX is calculated using the adx function, which takes two parameters: LWdilength (DMI Length) and LWadxlength (ADX period).
Strength Condition (strength_up): The strategy requires that the ADX value should be above a threshold (11 in this case) and that there is a predominance of upward movement (up > down) before initiating a long position. The LWADX value is multiplied by 2.5 and compared to the highest value of LWADX from the last 4 periods using ta.highest(LWADX , 4). If these conditions are met, the variable strength_up is set to true.
Combined Condition: The strength_up condition is then combined with the long conditions using the logical AND operator (and). This means that the strategy will only take a long position if both the long conditions and the market strength condition are met.
4. Trade Timing:
The strategy sets a specific trade window between 09:30 and 15:10. It will only execute trades within this time frame (TradeTime).
5. Risk Management:
The strategy implements dynamic stop-loss (SL) and profit-taking levels (T1, T2, T3) based on a user-defined Max Profit value. The stop-loss is set as a percentage of the Max Profit value. As the position moves in favor of the trader, the profit targets are adjusted accordingly.
6. Position Management:
The strategy uses the strategy.entry function to enter long positions based on the combined entry conditions. Once a position is open, the script uses strategy.exit to define the exit condition when either the profit target or stop-loss level is hit. The strategy.close function is used to close any open position at the end of the trade window (15:15).
7. Plotting:
The strategy uses the plot function to visualize the previous day's high and low prices, as well as the stop-loss (SL) and profit-taking (T1, T2, T3) levels on the chart.
Overall, the "Previous Day High Low Strategy only for Long" aims to identify potential long trading opportunities based on the previous day's price action and market strength conditions. However, as with any trading strategy, it's essential to thoroughly test it and consider risk management before applying it to real-world trading scenarios.

ATR Extension [QuantVue]The Moving Average ATR Extension Indicator offers a powerful blend of two key market elements: the Average True Range (ATR) and Moving Averages (MA), capturing the dynamics of market momentum and trend direction.
This indicator is used to measure market extension from a user-selected moving average based on multiples of the Average True Range (ATR). By doing this, it becomes remarkably straightforward to spot strength at breakout points or exhaustion near the end of a run.
As a market breaks out the extension indicates a surge in buying pressure, while an extension after a sizeable move can often be an indication of market exhaustion. This extended position essentially reflects over-enthusiastic buying and could be an early warning sign of a potential trend reversal.
Breakout Strength:
Exhaustion:

Price breakout and reversal [TCS] | PAThis indicator is designed to identify potential breaks and reversals in price movements for a financial instrument.
The indicator displays several elements to assist users in spotting specific market conditions:
1. High and Low Pivots : The indicator marks the highest and lowest points on the price chart within a customizable lookback period. These pivots represent important turning points in the price movement and serve as reference levels for potential breakouts and reversals.
2. Fair Value Line : A horizontal line is drawn at the midpoint between the high and low pivots. This line represents the "fair value" based on the recent price action. Traders may consider this level as a reference for evaluating the price's deviation from its average value.
3. Bullish Breakouts : When the closing price of the financial instrument crosses above the high pivot the indicator identifies a potential bullish breakout. This suggests a possible buying opportunity.
4. Bearish Breakouts : Conversely, a bearish breakout is identified when the closing price crosses below the low pivot. This may indicate a selling opportunity.
5. Fair Value Breakouts : In addition to regular breakouts, the indicator can detect breakouts based on the fair value line. If the closing price crosses above or below the fair value line, it may signal a fair value breakout, indicating the price's potential return to its average level.
6. Reversals : Reversal patterns are essential in technical analysis. The indicator identifies potential bullish and bearish reversals .
The indicator enhances its visual signals with geometric shapes (triangles and diamonds) placed above or below the price bars to represent different types of breakouts and reversals.
Moreover, the indicator can be configured to send alerts to the user when any of these specific events occur, helping traders stay informed and respond promptly to potential trading opportunities.

Relative Daily Change% by SUMIT
"Relative Daily Change%" Indicator (RDC)
The "Relative Daily Change%" indicator compares a stock's average daily price change percentage over the last 200 days with a chosen index.
It plots a colored curve. If the stock's change% is higher than the index, the curve is green, indicating it's doing better. Red means the stock is under-performing.
This indicator is designed to compare the performance of a stock with specific index (as selected) for last 200 candles.
I use this during a breakout to see whether the stock is performing well with comparison to it`s index. As I marked in the chart there was a range zone (red box), we got a breakout with good volume and it is also sustaining above 50 and 200 EMA, the RDC color is also in green so as per my indicator it is performing well. This is how I do fine-tuning of my analysis for a breakout strategy.
You can select Index from the list available in input
**Line Color Green = Avg Change% per day of the stock is more than the Selected Index
**Line Color White = Avg Change% per day of the stock is less than the Selected Index
If you want details of stocks for all index you can ask for it.

Swing Breaker Strategy [v0.1] - Support and resistance breakoutSwing Breaker Strategy - Support and Resistance Breakouts
This strategy has no repainting.
Default settings:
Swing Barsback: 10
Number of Swings: 3
Stoploss Candles Lookback: 5
Why these default settings?
This strategy has been backtested with over 100 trades, and on a larger scale of 1000 trades, it has reported a 1.33 profit factor with a maximum 5% cumulative drawdown, using no leverage. In this backtest, the settings (10,3,5) were used, becoming the default settings as they are more adaptable to different market conditions.
How does this strategy work?
Defining swing lows (support) and swing highs (resistance): We can locate these candles by looking at a symmetrical candle unit around them. For example, the default settings present a 10 swing bars back, which means there is no superior level within a 10-candle radius in the case of a swing high, and the opposite for a swing low. Swings are located a few candles after, just the number of swing bars back (width), because it is needed to ensure it is a swing.
Locating trends: We locate trends by looking at consecutive swings. For example, in the default settings, to determine a bullish trend, we need 3 consecutive ascending swing lows; for a bearish trend, 3 consecutive descending swing highs. You can find this parameter in settings as "Number of swings."
When a trend is formed, a stop entry is placed at the last swing until it is broken.
Just after the entry, the stop is placed at the lowest (in the case of a long) or the highest (in the case of a short) of the last candles. You can define that number in the settings as "Stoploss candles lookback," which default is 5. The take profit is placed at 2 times the stop value, resulting in a 2 risk-reward ratio.
Why is this strategy protected?
No other strategy combines the way of locating swings and turning it into a strategy, including customizable parameters such as stop loss, swing width and introducing the number of swings. That's why we decided to protect it.
Breakout FilterIntroduction:
The Breakout Filter is a technical analysis indicator designed to identify potential breakout trading opportunities in the financial markets. It combines breakout conditions based on price and volume with the visualization of Exponential Moving Average (EMA) lines. This indicator can be a valuable tool for traders seeking to capture breakout movements while utilizing EMA lines for additional trend analysis.
Indicator Overview:
The Breakout Filter consists of three main filters: Filter 1, Filter 2, and Filter 3. Each filter has its own set of conditions that need to be met for a breakout signal to be generated. Additionally, the indicator plots EMA lines on the chart to provide further insights into the market trend.
Filter 1: Price & Volume Breakout (Default symbol: Tiny Yellow Triangle)
Filter 1 focuses on identifying breakouts based on both price and volume criteria. It considers the following conditions:
- Price Breakout: The close price crosses above the Donchian Channel's middle line, indicating a potential upward breakout.
- Volume Breakout: The trading volume exceeds the moving average of volume, suggesting increased market participation during the breakout.
When both the price breakout and volume breakout conditions are met, Filter 1 generates a signal indicating a potential breakout in the market. This filter helps traders identify significant price movements accompanied by higher trading volumes.
Filter 2: Upper Band Breakout
Filter 2 specifically looks for breakouts above the upper band of the Donchian Channel. This condition suggests a potential strong upward momentum in the market. When the high price exceeds the upper band, Filter 2 generates a signal, indicating a breakout above the recent price range.
Filter 3: Combined Filter 1 and Filter 2
Filter 3 combines the conditions of both Filter 1 and Filter 2. It requires that both Filter 1 and Filter 2 generate signals simultaneously. When this happens, it indicates a strong breakout signal with price and volume confirming the upward momentum.
EMA Lines:
The Breakout Filter with EMA Lines also includes the visualization of Exponential Moving Average (EMA) lines on the chart. EMA is a popular technical indicator used to identify the overall trend in the market. The indicator plots three EMA lines with different periods: EMA1, EMA2, and EMA3. Traders can choose the periods for each EMA line based on their preference and trading strategy.
The EMA lines can provide additional insights into the market trend and potential support or resistance levels. By observing the interaction between the price and the EMA lines, traders can gain a better understanding of the prevailing market sentiment and make informed trading decisions.
How to screen these filters using Trading View Screener
Insert column "DONCHIAN20 UP" and set to "EQUAL HIGH"
Conclusion:
The Breakout Filter with EMA Lines is a comprehensive indicator that combines breakout conditions based on price and volume with the visualization of EMA lines. It helps traders identify potential breakout trading opportunities while providing insights into the market trend. By using this indicator, traders can enhance their trading strategies and potentially improve their trading outcomes.

Main Market Opener Breakout [RH]Based on my observations while analyzing the crypto and forex charts, particularly BTCUSDT and EURUSD, I have noticed that the prices exhibit significant movements during most stock market sessions, particularly during New York main market session.
With the aim of capturing these moves, I embarked on extensive research. Through this research, I discovered that by considering the very first "15m" or "30m" candle of the main market trading session and marking that first candle's high and low points, we can create potential trigger points.
A break above the high point indicates a bullish signal, while a break below the low point suggests a bearish signal. To further refine our analysis and filter out some noise, we can incorporate the Average True Range (ATR) value of that candle.
Candle time is very important here. We will mark the candle when the actual trading begins in New York stock exchange. The trading hours for the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) typically begin at 9:30 AM and end at 4:00 PM Eastern Time (ET), Monday through Friday. This is known as the "NYSE Regular Trading Session." However, it's important to note that there are also pre-market and after-hours trading sessions that occur outside of these core hours. We will not consider these pre and after-hours.
Example:
First break-above and break-below is marked automatically and alerts are also available for first breaks.
Example:
I have also added the option to add the, London Stock Exchange Main Market and Tokyo Stock Exchange Regular Trading Session. You can add those sessions also and test with different symbols.
Stocks symbols from different stock exchanges just mark the very first candle of the day(main market trading session).
Alerts are available.
Multi-Band Breakout IndicatorThe Multi-Band Breakout Indicator was created to help identify potential breakout opportunities in the market. It combines multiple bands (ATR-Based and Donchian) and moving averages to provide valuable insights into the underlying trend and potential breakouts. By understanding the calculations, interpretation, parameter adjustments, potential applications, and limitations of the indicator, traders can effectively incorporate it into their trading strategy.
Calculation:
The indicator utilizes several calculations to plot the bands and moving averages. The length parameter determines the period used for the Average True Range (ATR), which measures volatility. A higher length captures a longer-term view of price movement, while a lower length focuses on shorter-term volatility. The multiplier parameter adjusts the distance of the upper and lower bands from the ATR. A higher multiplier expands the bands, accommodating greater price volatility, while a lower multiplier tightens the bands, reflecting lower volatility. The MA Length parameter determines the period for the moving averages used to calculate the trend and trend moving average. A higher MA Length creates a smoother trend line, filtering out shorter-term fluctuations, while a lower MA Length provides a more sensitive trend line.
The Donchian calculations in the Multi-Band Breakout Indicator play a significant role in identifying potential breakout opportunities and providing additional confirmation for trading signals. In this indicator, the Donchian calculations are applied to the trend line, which represents the average of the upper and lower bands. To calculate the Donchian levels, the indicator uses the Donchian Length parameter, which determines the period over which the highest high and lowest low are calculated. A longer Donchian Length captures a broader price range, while a shorter length focuses on more recent price action. By incorporating the Donchian calculations into the Multi-Band Breakout Indicator, traders gain an additional layer of confirmation for breakout signals.
Interpretation:
The Multi-Band Breakout Indicator offers valuable interpretation for traders. The upper and lower bands represent dynamic levels of resistance and support, respectively. These bands reflect the potential price range within which the asset is expected to trade. The trend line is the average of these bands and provides a central reference point for the overall trend. When the price moves above the upper band, it suggests a potential overbought condition and a higher probability of a pullback. Conversely, when the price falls below the lower band, it indicates a potential oversold condition and an increased likelihood of a bounce. The trend moving average further smooths the trend line, making it easier to identify the prevailing direction.
The crossover of the trend line (representing the average of the upper and lower bands) and the trend moving average holds a significant benefit for traders. This crossover serves as a powerful signal for potential trend changes and breakout opportunities in the market. When the trend line crosses above the trend moving average, it suggests a shift in momentum towards the upside, indicating a potential bullish trend. This provides traders with an early indication of a possible upward movement in prices. Conversely, when the trend line crosses below the trend moving average, it indicates a shift in momentum towards the downside, signaling a potential bearish trend. This crossover acts as an early warning for potential downward price movement. By identifying these crossovers, traders can capture the initial stages of a new trend, enabling them to enter trades at favorable entry points and potentially maximize their profit potential.
Breakout Signals:
For bullish breakouts, the indicator looks for a bullish crossover between the trend line and the trend moving average. This crossover suggests a shift in momentum towards the upside. Additionally, it checks if the current price has broken above the upper band and the previous Donchian high. This confirms that the price is surpassing a previous resistance level, indicating further upward movement.
For bearish breakouts, the indicator looks for a bearish crossunder between the trend line and the trend moving average. This crossunder indicates a shift in momentum towards the downside. It also checks if the current price has broken below the lower band and the previous Donchian low. This confirms that the price is breaking through a previous support level, signaling potential downward movement.
When a bullish or bearish breakout is detected, it suggests a potential trading opportunity. Traders may consider initiating positions in the direction of the breakout, anticipating further price movement in that direction. However, it's important to remember that breakouts alone do not guarantee a successful trade. Other factors, such as market conditions, volume, and confirmation from additional indicators, should be taken into account. Risk management techniques should also be implemented to manage potential losses.
Coloration:
The coloration in the Multi-Band Breakout Indicator is used to visually represent different aspects of the indicator and provide valuable insights to traders. Let's break down the coloration components:
-- Trend/Basis Color : The tColor variable determines the color of the bars based on the relationship between the trend line (trend) and the closing price (close), as well as the relationship between the trend line and the trend moving average (trendMA). If the trend line is above the closing price and the trend moving average is also above the closing price, the bars are colored fuchsia, indicating a potential bullish trend. If the trend line is below the closing price and the trend moving average is also below the closing price, the bars are colored lime, indicating a potential bearish trend. If neither of these conditions is met, the bars are colored yellow, representing a neutral or indecisive market condition.
-- Moving Average Color : The maColor variable determines the color of the filled area between the trend line and the trend moving average. If the trend line is above the trend moving average, the area is filled with a lime color with 70% opacity, indicating a potential bullish trend. Conversely, if the trend line is below the trend moving average, the area is filled with a fuchsia color with 70% opacity, indicating a potential bearish trend. This coloration helps traders visually identify the relationship between the trend line and the trend moving average.
-- highColor and lowColor : The highColor and lowColor variables determine the colors of the high Donchian band (hhigh) and the low Donchian band (llow), respectively. These bands represent dynamic levels of resistance and support. If the highest point in the previous Donchian period (hhigh) is above the upper band, the highColor is set to olive with 90% opacity, indicating a potential resistance level. On the other hand, if the lowest point in the previous Donchian period (llow) is below the lower band, the lowColor is set to red with 90% opacity, suggesting a potential support level. These colorations help traders quickly identify important price levels and assess their significance in relation to the bands.
By incorporating coloration, the Multi-Band Breakout Indicator provides visual cues to traders, making it easier to interpret the relationships between various components and assisting in identifying potential trend changes and breakout opportunities. Traders can use these color cues to quickly assess the prevailing market conditions and make informed trading decisions.
Adjusting Parameters:
The Multi-Band Breakout Indicator offers flexibility through parameter adjustments. Traders can customize the indicator based on their preferences and trading style. The length parameter controls the sensitivity to price changes, with higher values capturing longer-term trends, while lower values focus on shorter-term price movements. By adjusting the parameters, such as the ATR length, multiplier, Donchian length, and MA length, traders can customize the indicator to suit different timeframes and trading strategies. For shorter timeframes, smaller values for these parameters may be more suitable, while longer timeframes may require larger values.
Potential Applications:
The Multi-Band Breakout Indicator can be applied in various trading strategies. It helps identify potential breakout opportunities, allowing traders to enter trades in the direction of the breakout. Traders can use the indicator to initiate trades when the price moves above the upper band or below the lower band, confirming a potential breakout and providing a signal to enter a trade. Additionally, the indicator can be combined with other technical analysis tools, such as support and resistance levels, candlestick patterns, or trend indicators, to increase the probability of successful trades. By incorporating the Multi-Band Breakout Indicator into their trading approach, traders can gain a better understanding of market trends and capture potential profit opportunities.
Limitations:
While the Multi-Band Breakout Indicator is a useful tool, it has some limitations that traders should consider. The indicator performs best in trending markets where price movements are relatively strong and sustained. During ranging or choppy market conditions, the indicator may generate false signals, leading to potential losses. It is crucial to use the indicator in conjunction with other analysis techniques and risk management strategies to enhance its effectiveness. Additionally, traders should consider external factors such as market news, economic events, and overall market sentiment when interpreting the signals generated by the indicator.
By combining multiple bands and moving averages, this indicator offers valuable insights into the underlying trend and helps traders make informed trading decisions. With customization options and careful interpretation, this indicator can be a valuable addition to any trader's toolkit, assisting in identifying potential breakouts, capturing profitable trades, and enhancing overall trading performance.
