Hodie Smart PD/PW/PM LevelsHodie Smart PD/PW/PM Levels is a professional tool for tracking previous daily, weekly, and monthly highs and lows (PDH/PDL, PWH/PWL, PMH/PML).
It automatically plots levels on the chart and provides unique one-time alerts per period — no more repeated or false signals.
🔧 Features & Settings
1. Levels:
Daily (PDH/PDL)
Weekly (PWH/PWL)
Monthly (PMH/PML)
2. Customization:
Show/hide each level type
Adjustable line thickness and colors
Labels with customizable text and background colors
3. Line Building:
Levels are drawn from the previous period’s high/low and extend until the end of the current period.
🚨 Alert System – Main Advantage
The key strength of this indicator is the smart alert logic:
Each level alert is triggered only once per period (day, week, or month)
No need to recreate alerts every session — the script automatically resets them with each new period
Daily levels use precise "first touch" detection, while weekly/monthly levels fire only once until the next period
✅ This means you can set an alert once and be confident it won’t spam or miss critical touches.
📖 Quick Instruction
1. Add the indicator to your chart
2. In the alerts panel, choose:
Condition: PDH Touch, PDL Touch, PWH Touch, PWL Touch, PMH Touch, or PML Touch
Options: Once per bar (recommended)
Timeframe: any (1-minute interval works best)
3. Alerts will automatically respect the logic:
Daily levels – 1 alert per day
Weekly levels – 1 alert per week
Monthly levels – 1 alert per month
🎯 Why Use This Indicator?
Saves time: set alerts once, no need to update them daily
Eliminates duplicate signals
Clear visualization of key market levels
Works across all markets and timeframes
⚡ Perfect for traders using liquidity concepts, breakout strategies, and Smart Money methods.

RedFlagCounter-trend strategy
Condition to open a long position:
Buys if the price drops by a specified percentage from the previous candle’s close. Only one purchase can be made within a single candle.
Condition to close a position:
Places a separate individual closing limit order for each purchase, or uses one common take-profit order for the whole position.
⚠️ Attention : Stop-loss is not implemented in the current first version of the strategy.
Options description:
Drop_percent , % — Percentage drop in price from the From point
From — The reference point on the closed candle from which the Drop_percent is calculated (Open, Close, High, Low)
Tp , % — Take-profit level as a percentage
Count — Number of allowed additional purchases (scaling in)
Each_tp — Mode switch:
True — a separate take-profit is placed for each purchase
False — one common take-profit is placed based on the average entry price of the position
回撤再入场引擎This is a long-only, counter-trend strategy that aims to buy dips in a medium-term downtrend. The entry logic is based on a confluence of four filters:
1. **Trend Filter:** The price must be trading below the 60-period Simple Moving Average (SMA).
2. **Oversold Condition:** The WaveTrend Oscillator must first dip below -60 and then recover above -55.
3. **Momentum Confirmation:** The MACD must show sustained bullish momentum for at least 2 bars.
4. **Re-entry Filter:** A new trade is only allowed if the price is at least a certain percentage lower than the last trade's exit price.
The exit is based on a fixed Take Profit target. This version does not include a stop-loss.

Trend Bars with Okuninushi Line Filter# Trend Bars with Okuninushi Line Filter: A Powerful Trading Indicator
## Introduction
The **Trend Bars with Okuninushi Line Filter** is an innovative technical indicator that combines two powerful concepts: trend bar analysis and the Okuninushi Line filter. This indicator helps traders identify high-quality trending moves by analyzing candle body strength relative to the overall price range while ensuring the price action aligns with the dominant market structure.
## What Are Trend Bars?
Trend bars are candles where the body (distance between open and close) represents a significant portion of the total price range (high to low). These bars indicate strong directional momentum with minimal indecision, making them valuable signals for trend continuation.
### Key Characteristics:
- **Strong directional movement**: Large body relative to total range
- **Minimal upper/lower shadows**: Shows sustained pressure in one direction
- **High conviction**: Represents decisive market action
## The Okuninushi Line Filter
The Okuninushi Line, also known as the Kijun Line in Ichimoku analysis, is calculated as the midpoint of the highest high and lowest low over a specified period (default: 52 periods).
**Formula**: `(Highest High + Lowest Low) / 2`
This line acts as a dynamic support/resistance level and trend filter, helping to:
- Identify the overall market bias
- Filter out counter-trend signals
- Provide confluence for trade entries
## How the Indicator Works
The indicator combines these two concepts with the following logic:
### Bull Trend Bars (Green)
A candle is colored **green** when ALL conditions are met:
1. **Bullish candle**: Close > Open
2. **Strong body**: |Close - Open| ≥ Threshold × (High - Low)
3. **Above trend filter**: Close > Okuninushi Line
### Bear Trend Bars (Red)
A candle is colored **red** when ALL conditions are met:
1. **Bearish candle**: Close < Open
2. **Strong body**: |Close - Open| ≥ Threshold × (High - Low)
3. **Below trend filter**: Close < Okuninushi Line
### Neutral Bars (Gray)
All other candles that don't meet the complete criteria are colored **gray**.
## Customizable Parameters
### Trend Bar Threshold
- **Range**: 10% to 100%
- **Default**: 75%
- **Purpose**: Controls how "strong" a candle must be to qualify as a trend bar
**Threshold Effects:**
- **Low (10-30%)**: More sensitive, catches smaller trending moves
- **Medium (50-75%)**: Balanced approach, filters out most noise
- **High (80-100%)**: Very selective, only captures the strongest moves
### Okuninushi Line Length
- **Default**: 52 periods
- **Purpose**: Determines the lookback period for calculating the midpoint
- **Common Settings**:
- 26 periods: More responsive to recent price action
- 52 periods: Standard setting, good balance
- 104 periods: Longer-term trend perspective
## Trading Applications
### 1. Trend Continuation Signals
- **Green bars**: Look for bullish continuation opportunities
- **Red bars**: Consider bearish continuation setups
- **Gray bars**: Exercise caution, mixed signals
### 2. Market Structure Analysis
- Clusters of same-colored bars indicate strong trends
- Alternating colors suggest choppy, indecisive markets
- Transition from red to green (or vice versa) may signal trend changes
### 3. Entry Timing
- Use colored bars as confirmation for existing trade setups
- Wait for color alignment with your market bias
- Avoid trading during predominantly gray periods
### 4. Risk Management
- Gray bars can serve as early warning signs of weakening trends
- Color changes might indicate appropriate exit points
- Use in conjunction with other risk management tools
## Advantages
1. **Dual Filtering**: Combines momentum (trend bars) with trend direction (Okuninushi Line)
2. **Visual Clarity**: Immediate visual feedback through candle coloring
3. **Customizable**: Adjustable parameters for different trading styles
4. **Versatile**: Works across multiple timeframes and instruments
5. **Objective**: Rule-based system reduces subjective interpretation
## Limitations
1. **Lagging Nature**: Based on historical price data
2. **False Signals**: Can produce whipsaws in choppy markets
3. **Parameter Sensitivity**: Requires optimization for different instruments
4. **Market Conditions**: May be less effective in ranging markets
## Best Practices
### Optimization Tips:
- **Volatile Markets**: Use higher thresholds (80-90%)
- **Steady Trends**: Use moderate thresholds (60-75%)
- **Short-term Trading**: Shorter Okuninushi Line periods (26)
- **Long-term Analysis**: Longer Okuninushi Line periods (104+)
### Combination Strategies:
- Pair with volume indicators for confirmation
- Use alongside support/resistance levels
- Combine with other trend-following indicators
- Consider market context and overall trend direction
## Conclusion
The Trend Bars with Okuninushi Line Filter offers traders a sophisticated yet intuitive way to identify high-quality trending moves. By combining the momentum characteristics of trend bars with the directional filter of the Okuninushi Line, this indicator helps traders focus on the most promising opportunities while avoiding low-probability setups.
Remember that no single indicator should be used in isolation. Always consider market context, risk management, and other technical factors when making trading decisions. The true power of this indicator lies in its ability to quickly highlight periods of strong, aligned price action – exactly what trend traders are looking for.
