Compare currency against multiple (Basket of currencies)Early version of a script to compare one currency against multiple to get an index.
Default values loaded basically make something along the lines of, "USD global exchange rate"
I plan on making this less clunky/messy in future with respect to the coding and the user inputs. Works 100% right now though.
PpSignal Chandelier StopThere are few indicators for MT4 which draw trailing stop line. I prefer to use Chandelier Stops. I believe that with good money management this is one of the best tools to follow a trend.
About ATR trailing stop loss (Chandelier Stops)
When you catch trend you can profit from most of the move. The good thing about ATR is that you have a stop loss level in place. When there is a close on the other side of ATR, it is a signal to close. No second guessing.
Best time frame for ATR trailing stop loss
I strongly recommend time frames such as 30m or larger. On lower time frames like 5m there is too much algo trading. I trade with ATR on 1h or 4h charts.
Parameters for trailing stop
Depends on pair or instrument. In most cases standard parameters will be fine. If I change anything then it is usually a Kv parameter. Standard is 3.5 and I tend to make it bigger like 3.7 or 4.0. In most cases it is around 3.7.

Remember, it depends from pair and current situation in the market. You should experiment with few settings and check it on historical price action if they are ok.
Best pairs to trade with ATR trailing stop loss
Trailing stop loss works best in trending markets. That is why you should check pair if it tends to move strong or to move in range. It is not the secret that yen pairs line to move strongly. If you are looking for solid trends, you can’t go wrong with GBPJPY or EURJPY.
Resistance of VolumeIt is used to detect volume resistors in a personalized way, since it allows the user to enter the volume in which he wishes the resistance to jump automatically.
It does not mark the black line and the graphic that's just to help understand how it works
in the above image can see the indicator works on 30 minutes chart
in the above image can see the indicator works on 5 minutes chart
therefore, it can be configured to go through several temporalities.
Gap finder (gold minds)This tool highlights where gaps happens and outlines in the chart where the gap zones are. If there is a gap up there is a green line, a gap down it is red. The gap zone is highlighted in blue. You can choose the size of your gap with the input menu to the desired size. Feel free to ask comment below. Made for the Gold Minds group
Currency StrengthRepublished: The original script violated house rules by including an external link to Backtest Rookies.
Background
The currency strength indicator takes up to 4 forex pairs and calculates the average strength across all pairs. The indicator uses the pair's daily percentage change to calculate the overall strength. For flexibility, it can accept any instrument as an input. This means you can use multiple instances to track various currency strengths. It was designed with the major pairs in mind but there is no reason why it cannot be used for other FX pairs.
Note: The indicator defaults to GBP. When setting it up for other currencies, be sure to flag whether the currency is a counter currency or not.
The code is provided free and open source. Please modify it as you see fit.

BullTrading MultiTimeFrame ATR %Good afternoon traders.
Have you ever got trapped on the middle of a consolidation? Well, it just happened to me trading the 1 minute chart last friday!
So, I coded this script to display a percentage of ATR for a given resolution.
Now, how can you benefit using this information?
For example:
Using the standard settings (resolution is calibrated 15 minutes in order to trade 1minute charts), just draw your prefered support and resistance. Then measure the number of pips between support and resistance. This number should be approximately the same the indicator is displaying. If the indicator is displaying a lower value, maybe it will be a good idea to tighten your support/resistance levels (if the price goes against you, you will have confidence and probability on your side to open an opposite position and reach your Take profit before a new reversal take place.
Change colors and resolution for your desired timeframe until you find your particular "sweet spot"
Have a nice trading week.
Volume Conversion IndicatorVolume Conversion Indicator
The volume conversion indicator is much like the in-built volume indicator. This particular volume indicator allows you to find out how much of something has been traded in a given timeframe.
This is done by multiplying volume by the average price at that point.
What does this mean?
Well, say, for example, you were watching DGB/BTC (DigiByte/Bitcoin). Instead of the volume being displayed in the amount of DGB traded, the amount of BTC traded is displayed instead.
Feel free to comment... Hope this helps :D
BullTrading SwingHigh/SwingLowTraders, good afternoon... are you in a mood for an excellent Institutional Trading Course?
Best of all for FREE!! (please use this valuable information with respect, there are people selling the information contained in this course as their own).
This guy has more than 20 years of trading experience under his belt. This information is a real gem for any trader, no matter the timeframe you trade. This script is a tribute for ICT production and shows the swing highs and swing lows used on institutional trading (Use it in D and 4H timeframes resolution for analysis in order to apply manual trading in lower timeframes).
Here is the link to the ICT Sniper Institutional Trading Course. Enjoy www.dropbox.com
Magic Moving Averages!Magic Moving Averages! is an indicator that comes standard in many forex trading platforms, and now on Tradingview designed for comfortable readability! It incorporates a series of simple moving averages plotted together with increasing periods. Finding a good trade with this is easily found with a set of rules. I took a course with Alex du Plooy on these rules and am using his suggested default values, however there are many more teachers of this method that have various rules that may be similar. If you desire a greater MA spread simply increase the MA Separation value in the input. Best for 15 mins or longer charts.
Happy trading
Fx SessionsThis script displays a lower strip to be aware of Fx Sessions (London, NY and Tokyo). Please pay attention to the pre London "Kill Zone" which comprehends the Gap between the Tokyo close (End of Yellow Strip) and the London open (Beginning of Aqua Strip).

Pair Strength BasketAgain thanks to LazyBear for bringing over the wavetrend indicator and glaz for the idea of the basket of currencies. This is a power index based on the wavetrend indicator, I cut it down to 5 securities per currency since the limit of securities I could call was 40. I like to use to see which pair is the most OB/OS as it likely presents the best profit potential.
AUD = Yellow
CAD = Gray
CHF = Maroon
EUR = Blue
GBP = Red
JPY = Purple
NZD = Lime
USD = Green
Pair Strength EURUSDThis is an application of the WaveTrend indicator by LazyBear against a basket of the eur and usd to come up with a total eur and usd wt value. You can change the currencies by altering which pairs its run on. As far as changes I removed the lagging 4sma and altered the OB OS to be 2 and 3 standard deviations from a 1000sma just to get a stable view as to where the values tend to rise to. I've had some success using it over the past week or so, when dollar is OB an euro is OS you can expect EURUSD to go up as those reverse and vice versa.
Forex strength meterCalculates the strength of a particular currency taking into account it's rate of change (% price change in a period) in all correlated and anti-correlated pairs. For instance, when looking for USD strength we will add ROC for USDCAD, USDCHF and USDJPY while subtract AUDUSD, EURUSD, GBPUSD and NZDUSD.
After ROC step, one can smooth the result using EMA, or MACD.
As the script needs to fetch values from multiple currencies it isn't the fastest one, but it gets its job done.
Important: Only major currencies (AUD, CAD, CHF, EUR, GBP, JPY, NZD and USD) are considered.

Pump_Doctor Trends**You must enable bar colors in the options for the script if you wish to see them**
This indicator is very useful for spotting trends / tops / bottoms.
This is the ultimate altcoin pump spotting tool. Use on higher timeframes for greatest accuracy. If altcoin is newish (ZEC for example), try 4h rather than 1D or 3D.
Green = Uptrend
Red = Downtrend
Gray = Top/local top, bottom/local bottom, or continuation. You will need some knowledge of price action to determine which condition applies.
You can use the oscillator at the bottom as a measure of momentum / trend strength. You can draw trendlines on the oscillator on the top/bottom or the interior.
1337 VolumeThis volume indicator gives you a unique perspective and ability to analyze volume in any market. The upper line that is always >=0 represents average up volume over a user definable period while the lower line that is always <= 0 represents the average down volume over a user definable period.
green == bullish candle but volume lower than average
lime == bullish candle with above average volume
crimson == bearish candle with below average volume
red == bearish candle with above average volume
This indicator is very useful for spotting bottoms / tops (do a visual backtest and observe its behavior) as well as entry opportunities.
By default, the lookback period for average volume is 7, but I encourage you to change this value in order to find settings that work best for your particular market.
If you have any feedback or ideas for improvement, please comment.
Enjoy :D
Tops/BottomsUsing Modified code from Lazybear's CVI 0.17% indicator and some logic, this script can help identify value buy and sell opportunities at a very early phase. Best used as a confirmation tool. This is a beta, so use it as such. Enjoy.
Sometimes "top" indications in an uptrend mean to look for an opportunity to add to position while "bottom" indications during a downtrend can represent the same thing. The trend is your friend, use it to your advantage!
Red star above bar == potential top
Green star below bar == potential bottom
