Trend Angle Candle ColorIntroduction:
As a trader, understanding the trend of the market is crucial for making informed decisions. One way to gain insight into the market trend is by using technical indicators, which are mathematical calculations that provide traders with valuable information about price action. In this post, we will explore a unique indicator called the "Trend Angle Candle Color" that not only identifies the trend but also visualizes it using color-coded candlesticks. We'll dive into the script, discuss its key components, and explain how you can benefit from using it in your trading strategy.
Script Overview:
The Trend Angle Candle Color Indicator is written in the Pine Script language for the TradingView platform. The indicator utilizes a combination of Exponential Moving Average (EMA), Average True Range (ATR), and Epanechnikov Kernel function to calculate the trend angle, which is then represented by color-coded candlesticks. The script offers several customizable inputs, such as the length of the lookback period, the scale (sensitivity), and the smoothing factor.
Key Components of the Script:
Inputs:
Length: Determines the lookback period for calculating the trend.
Scale: Adjusts the sensitivity of the indicator.
Smoothing: Controls the degree of smoothing applied to the angle calculation.
Smoothing Factor: Adjusts the weight of the Epanechnikov Kernel function.
Functions:
grad(src): A function that takes an input value and returns a corresponding color from a predefined gradient.
ema(source): An Exponential Moving Average function that smoothens the price data.
atan2(y, x) and degrees(float source): Functions that convert the slope into an angle in radians and then into degrees.
epanechnikov_kernel(_src, _size, _h, _r): A function that applies the Epanechnikov Kernel smoothing method to the angle data.
Calculations:
ATR: Calculates the Average True Range using the EMA function.
Slope: Determines the slope of the price change over the specified lookback period.
Angle_rad: Converts the slope into an angle in radians.
Degrees: Applies the Epanechnikov Kernel smoothing function to the angle data and scales it to a range between 0 to 100.
Visualization:
Colour: Assigns a color to each candlestick based on the calculated degree value using the grad() function.
Barcolor(colour) and plotcandle(): Functions that display the color-coded candlesticks on the chart.
Benefits of Using the Trend Angle Candle Color Indicator:
Easy Visualization: The color-coded candlesticks provide a simple and intuitive way to understand the market trend direction and strength at a glance.
Customizable Parameters: The customizable inputs allow traders to fine-tune the indicator to their preferred settings, suiting their trading style and strategy.
Versatility: The Trend Angle Candle Color Indicator can be used across various timeframes and financial instruments, making it a valuable addition to any trader's toolkit.
Conclusion:
The Trend Angle Candle Color Indicator is a powerful tool that can enhance your trading strategy by providing a visual representation of the market trend. The unique combination of EMA, ATR, and Epanechnikov Kernel smoothing helps create a more accurate and easy-to-understand trend angle calculation. By incorporating this indicator into your trading analysis, you can gain better insight into market dynamics and make more informed trading decisions.
"THE SCRIPT"に関するスクリプトを検索
FibonRSI / ErkOziHello,
This software is a technical analysis script written in the TradingView Pine language. The script creates a trading indicator based on Fibonacci retracement levels and the RSI indicator, providing information about price movements and asset volatility by using Bollinger Bands.
There are many different scripts in the market that draw RSI and Fibonacci retracement levels. However, this script was originally designed by me and shared publicly on TradingView.
***The indicator uses RSI (Relative Strength Index) and Bollinger Bands (BB) as the basis for the FibonRSI strategy. RSI measures the strength of a price movement, and BB measures the volatility of an asset. The FibonRSI strategy is based on the idea that the Fibonacci ratios and RSI can be used to predict a asset's price retracement levels.
***The script allows for various parameters to be adjusted. Users can specify the price source type and adjust the periods for RSI and Bollinger Bands. The standard deviation number for Bollinger Bands can also be customized.
***The script calculates the current RSI indicator position and the basic, upper, and lower levels of Bollinger Bands. It then calculates and draws the Fibonacci retracement levels. The color of the RSI line is determined by the upper and lower distribution levels of Bollinger Bands. Additionally, the color of the Fibonacci retracement levels can also be customized by the user.
***This script can be used to determine potential buy and sell signals using Fibonacci retracement levels and RSI. For example, when the RSI is oversold and the price is close to a Fibonacci retracement level, it can be interpreted as a buying opportunity. Similarly, when the RSI is overbought and the price is close to a Fibonacci retracement level, it can be interpreted as a selling opportunity.
***The script takes input parameters such as the price source used for calculation, the period for the RSI indicator, the period for the Moving Average in Bollinger Bands, and the number of standard deviations used in Bollinger Bands.
***The script's conditions include elements such as calculating the current position of the RSI indicator, calculating the upper and lower Bollinger Bands, calculating the dispersion factor, and calculating Fibonacci levels.
***The parameters in the code can be adjusted for calculation, including the price type used, the RSI period, the Moving Average period for BB, and the standard deviation count for BB. After this, the current position of the RSI, Moving Average, and standard deviation for BB are calculated. After calculating the upper and lower BB, the levels above and below the average are calculated using a specific dispersion constant.
CONDITIONS FOR THE SCRIPT
current_rsi = ta.rsi(src, for_rsi) // Current position of the RSI indicator
basis = ta.ema(current_rsi, for_ma)
dev = for_mult * ta.stdev(current_rsi, for_ma)
upper = basis + dev
lower = basis - dev
dispersion = 1
disp_up = basis + (upper - lower) * dispersion
disp_down = basis - (upper - lower) * dispersion
// Fibonacci Levels
f100 = basis + (upper - lower) * 1.0
f78 = basis + (upper - lower) * 0.78
f65 = basis + (upper - lower) * 0.65
f50 = basis
f35 = basis - (upper - lower) * 0.65
f23 = basis - (upper - lower) * 0.78
f0 = basis - (upper - lower) * 1.0
***When calculating Fibonacci levels, the distance between the average of BB and the upper and lower BB is used. These levels are 0%, 23.6%, 35%, 50%, 65%, 78.6%, and 100%. Finally, the RSI line that changes color according to a specific RSI position, Fibonacci levels, and BB are visualized. Additionally, the levels of 70, 30, and 50 are also shown.
The script then sets the color of the RSI position according to the EMA and draws Bollinger Bands, RSI, Fibonacci levels, and the 70, 30, and 50 levels.
In conclusion, this script enables traders to analyze market trends and make informed decisions. It can also be customized to suit individual trading strategies.
This script analyzes the RSI indicator using Bollinger Bands and Fibonacci levels. The default settings are 14 periods for RSI, 233 periods and 2 standard deviations for BB. The MA period inside BB is selected as the BB period and is used when calculating Fibonacci levels.
***The reason for selecting these settings is to provide enough time for BB period to confirm a possible trend. Additionally, the MA period inside BB is matched with the BB period and used when calculating Fibonacci levels.
***Fibonacci levels are calculated from the distance between the upper and lower bands of BB and show how RSI movement is related to these levels. Better results can be achieved when RSI periods are set to Fibonacci numbers such as 21, 55, and 89. Therefore, the use of Fibonacci numbers is recommended when adjusting RSI periods. Fibonacci numbers are among the technical analysis tools that can capture the reflection of naturally occurring movements in the market. Therefore, the use of Fibonacci numbers often helps to better track fluctuations in the market.
Finally, the indicator also displays the 70 and 30 levels and the middle level (50) with Fibonacci levels drawn in circles. Changing these settings can help optimize the Fibonacci levels and further improve the indicator.
Thank you in advance for your suggestions and opinions......
Visible Fibonacci█ OVERVIEW
This indicator displays Fibonacci retracement and extension levels on the price chart using data within the chart's visible range, providing traders with an automated alternative to our well-known drawing tool .
█ CONCEPTS
Fibonacci sequence and the Golden ratio
The Fibonacci sequence is a sequence of numbers where each term is the sum of the previous two terms. In his book Liber Abaci , Fibonacci used this sequence to estimate the growth of rabbit populations. Although most commonly associated with Fibonacci, this numeric sequence appeared in Indian mathematics as early as 200 BC. As this sequence approaches infinity, the ratio of the last element to the preceding approaches the Golden ratio (1.618033...), a well-known metallic ratio theoretically observed in many natural and synthetic systems. Many traders believe that the Fibonacci sequence and the Golden ratio carry significance in the financial markets.
Fibonacci retracements and extensions
Fibonacci retracements and extensions are extremely popular in technical analysis. They are created by connecting two extreme points, typically pivot points, by a trend line and multiplying the range between them by the ratios of steps in the Fibonacci sequence, or more precisely, powers of the Golden Ratio, to produce estimated levels of support and resistance. The ratios used for retracement multipliers are typically the Golden ratio raised to the power of 0, -0.5, -1, -2, and -3, or 1, 0.786, 0.618, 0.382, and 0.236, respectively. It is also common to see traders use a retracement ratio of 0.5. The ratios used for extension multipliers are typically the Golden ratio raised to the power of 0.5, 1, 2, and 3, or 1.272, 1.618, 2.618, and 4.236, respectively. Traders often combine these retracement and extension ratios with others they deem significant for a more personalized output.
Zig Zag
Zig Zag is a popular indicator that filters out minor price fluctuations to denoise data and emphasize trends. Traders commonly use Zig Zag for trend confirmation, identifying potential support and resistance, and pattern detection. It is formed by identifying significant local high and low points in alternating order and connecting them with straight lines, omitting all other data points from their output. There are several ways to calculate the Zig Zag's data points and the conditions by which its direction changes. This script uses the highest and lowest values over a specified length to estimate the locations of pivots. The Zig Zag reverses its direction when a new high or low emerges in the opposite direction. Additionally, enabling the "Detect additional pivots" option in the script settings will locate extra pivots when the number of bars in which no new pivot occurs exceeds the Zig Zag length.
Visible Fibonacci
This script uses the chart's visible bars to calculate and display an automated Fibonacci retracement tool with extreme points based on either of two calculation methods:
• Visible Chart Range: This method uses the highest and lowest points from the visible chart range for Fibonacci level calculation.
• Visible Zig Zag: This method uses historical pivots from a Zig Zag indicator for level calculation. The "nth Last Pivot" input in the script settings controls how many pivots back from the last visible one will be used to calculate the Fibonacci levels.
As traders pan and zoom on their charts, the script dynamically recalculates its values explicitly using the bars within the visible range.
Note that levels drawn outside the range between the high and low points may affect the scale of the chart. To prevent this, select the "Scale price chart only" option in the chart settings.
█ FOR Pine Script™ CODERS
• This script utilizes functions from the VisibleChart library by our resident PineCoders . The library exploits the chart.left_visible_bar_time and chart.right_visible_bar_time variables, which return the opening time of the leftmost and rightmost bars on the chart. They are only two of many new built-ins in the `chart.*` namespace. See this blog post for more information, or look them up by typing "chart." in the Pine Script™ Reference Manual .
• This script's architecture utilizes user-defined types (UDTs) to create custom objects which are the equivalent of variables containing multiple parts, each able to hold independent values of different types . The recently added feature was announced in this blog post.
Look first. Then leap.
Percent Volatility MomentumThis pine script calculates percent volatility momentum, negative percent volatility and positive percent volatility. The blue line is the overall momentum of the current percent volatility trend. The red line only includes negative movements in the percent volatility of the source. The green line includes only positive movements of the percent volatility of the source. The script also includes an angle and a normalized angle setting that allows one to determine the angle of the source curve. Note, the angle was transformed from -90 to 90 to 0 to 100. Such that an angle of -90 is transformed to 0. An angle of 0 is transformed to 50 and an angle of 90 is transformed to 100. This is the first draft of this script and my first pine script published. Any feedback is welcome. I borrowed code from TradingView's Linear Regression Channel and Relative Strength Index pine scripts.
Rob Booker Reversal Tabs StrategyRob Booker Reversal Tabs Strategy is an updated version of Rob Bookers Reversal Tab study: Rob Booker Reversal Tabs
While the original is a Pinescript study, this version can be switched between strategy and indicator mode.
Rob Bookers script generates reversal signal based on MACD and Stochastics, it is not a true reversal system, default pyramiding value is set to 5.
Inputs determine MACD and Stochastics settings. The only additional input is the "Strategy Mode" checkbox.
This script works well on its own for some tickers, but like any reversal pattern generating scripts, traders will profit from looking at overall price action and trend strength before making a trade.
From the original:
A simple reversal pattern indicator that uses MACD and Stochastics.
Created by Rob Booker and programmed by Andrew Palladino.
Please note that I only updated the original to V5 and edited it to be a strategy, which was a grand total of 5 minutes of work. I updated it because I wanted to see how the script performs as a strategy and I'm publishing it in case others would like to use it. I take no credit whatsoever for the original and WILL take this version down if Rob Booker or his Team ask me to or decide to release their own strategy version of the original.

Higher Time Frame Average True RangesPurpose: This script will help an options trader asses risk and determine good entry and exit strategies
Background Information: The true range is the greatest of: current high minus the current low; the absolute value of the current high minus the previous close; and the absolute value of the current low minus the previous close. The Average True Range (ATR) is a 14-day moving average of the true range. Traders use the ATR indicator to assess volatility in stocks and decide when to enter and exit trades. It is important to note the limitations of using True Range and ATR: These indications cannot tell you the direction of your options trade (call vs. put) and they cannot tell you whether a particular trend is about to reverse. However, it can be used to assess if volatility has peaked for a particular direction and time period.
How this script works: This indicator calculates true range for the daily (DTR), weekly (WTR), and monthly (MTR) time frames and compares it to the Average True Range (ATR) for each of those time frames (DATR, WATR, and MATR). The comparison is displayed into a colored table in the upper right-hand corner of the screen. When a daily, weekly, or monthly true range reaches 80% of its respective ATR, the row for that time frame will turn Orange indicating medium risk for staying in the trade. If the true range goes above 100% of the respective ATR, then the row will turn Red indicating high risk for staying in the trade. When the row for a time period turns red, volatility for the time period has likely peaked and traders should heavily consider taking profits. It is important to note these calculations start at different times for each time frame: Daily (Today’s Open), Weekly (Monday’s Open), Monthly (First of the Month’s Open). This means if it’s the 15th of the month then the Monthly True Range is being calculated for the trading days in the first half of the month (approximately 10 trade days).
The script also plots three sets of horizontal dotted lines to visually represent the ATR for each time period. Each set is generated by adding and subtracting the daily, weekly, and monthly ATRs from that time periods open price. For example, the weekly ATR is added and subtracted from Mondays open price to visually represent the true range for that week. The DATR is represented by red lines, the WATR is represented by the green lines, and the MATR is represented by the blue lines. These plots could also be used to assess risk as well.
How to use this script: Use the table to assess risk and determine potential exit strategies (Green=Low Risk, Orange=Medium Risk, Red=High Risk. Use the dotted lines to speculate what a stock’s price could be in a given time period (Daily=Red, Weekly=Green, and Monthly=Blue). And don’t forget the true range’s calculation and plots starts at the beginning of each time period!
VWAP Push StrategyThis strategy is unfortunately not finished yet.
A pretty simple strategy. If price broke through VWAP and had three consecutive candles following the breakthroughs trend, the high of the third candle will be drawn. If this happened after a crossover of the vwap and price breaks through the high of the third candle, strategy will go long. Short will be the same after crossing under the vwap. A long or short will be closed after crossing the vwap in the opposite direction, so the vwap is kind of a trailing stop.
Unfortunately, I could not manage to stop the script from entering multiple times into one drawn high or low. Of course, if a high was crossed the script should wait for a new formed high before entering a new long. If someone would find a solution to this, it would be great, because I think it is a nice strategy .
Should work great scalping 5min charts (when scripting, I used the SPX for reference).
(Quartile Vol.; Vol. Aggregation; Range US Bars; Gaps) [Kioseff]Hello!

Quartile Volume
The Quartile Volume portion of the script segments price/volume intervals by quartile.
The image above shows features of the indicator.
For statistics, the following metrics are recorded:
First Quartile
Second Quartile
Third Quartile
90th Percentile
Fourth Quartile
Q2 - Q1 Dispersion
Q3 - Q2 Dispersion
Q4 - Q3 Dispersion
Quartile Deviation

Avg. "n" bar return following "high" volume
Avg. "n" bar positive return following "high" volume
Avg. "n" bar negative following "high" volume
The script colors bars via gradient.
By default, bars are colored lime when volume for the interval is "high" (exceeds upper quartile thresholds). The greener the bar, the higher the volume for the interval.
Bars are colored red when volume for the interval is "low" (fails to exceed lower quartile thresholds). The redder the bar, the lower the volume for the interval.
Naturally, brownish-colored bars reflect a volume interval that concluded near the median.
The image above exemplifies the process. This feature might be useful to categorize / objectively define high-volume clusters, low-volume clusters, high-volume price moves, low-volume price moves, etc.
For greater precision, you can select to color bars by volume quartile they belong to.
The image above shows color-coordinated price bars. More details shown in the image.
Additionally, you can select to plot the quartile/percentile that a price bar belongs to on the chart.
The image above shows price bars numbered by the volume quartile they belong to.
The script will distinguish successive 90th percentile violations, superimpose a linear regression channel atop the data sequence, and record pertinent statistics.
The image above shows the process.
Lastly, the user can plot an anchored VWAP using a built-in time function.
The image above shows the anchored VWAP.
Range US Chart
A Range US chart operates irrespective of time and volume - simply - bars produce after a user-defined price move is achieved/exceeded in either direction. A range us chart produces “trend candles” and “reversal candles”. A reversal candle always moves against the most immediate bar; a trend candle always moves in favor of the most immediate bar. The user defines the dollar amount price must travel up/down for a trend candle to fulfill, and for a reversal candle to fulfill.
Note: if a “down reversal” candle (red) Is produced, it’s impossible for the next candle to also be a down reversal candle - for the downside move to continue the criteria for a down trend candle must be fulfilled. Similarly, if an “up reversal” candle (green) Is produced, it’s impossible for the next candle to also be an up reversal candle - for the upside move to continue, the criteria for an uptrend trend candle must be fulfilled. Consequently, Range US bars frequently trade at the same level for extended periods. This is intentional, as this chart type is theorized to “filter noise” (whether Range US charts fulfill this theory is to your discretion).
Lastly, if an up trend candle (green) is produced, the next candle cannot be up a reversal up candle - only a trend up candle or reversal down candle can produce - vice versa for a trend down candle (the subsequent candle cannot be a reversal down candle). In this sense, an uptrend continues on successive trend up candles; a down trend continues on successive trend down candles.
The image above exemplifies Range US chart functionality.
The lower-right stats table shows the requisite price move for a "Trend" candle to produce and for a "Reversal" candle to produce.
The default settings for this chart time automatically calculate the required "Trend" candle price move and the required "Reversal" candle price move. However, both settings are configurable.
The image above shows manually configured parameters for a trend bar and reversal bar to produce. This feature allows the user to replicate the Range US chart hosted on extrinsic charting platforms.
However, please consider that this script does not use tick data; 1-minute OHLC data is used for calculations.
Consequently, configuring the trend bar and reversal bar requirement too low may return inaccurate data. For instance, if you set trend candles to form after a $1 price move then trend candles will form if price moves up $1 from a green Range US bar or down $1 from a red Range US bar. This is sufficient for lower priced assets; however, if you were trading, for instance, Bitcoin - a $1 price move can happen numerous times in one minute. This script can’t plot bars and record data until a 1-minute bar closes and a new 1-minute bar opens. Further, if Bitcoin moves up $1 twenty times and down $1 twenty times in a 1-minute bar - your Range US chart will record such variations as one price move. This data is inaccurate and likely useless.
To counter this quandary, a warning message will appear if you configure trend bar price moves or reversal bar price moves too low.
The image above shows the concealable warning message.
The image above is a flow diagram (made with shaky hands) illustrating the Range US bar formation process.
A google search will return additional information on the Range US chart type.
Volume Aggregation Bars
TradingView user and member of the TradingView Discord server @ferreirajames informed me of the Volume Aggregation chart type. The user commented in the "Suggestions" channel for the TradingView Discord server asking for the Volume Aggregation chart type. As an interim fix, I tried my hand at recreating the process, which is available in this script.
Similar to the Range US chart type, Volume Aggregation bars aren’t bound to a time-axis; the bars form after a user-defined, cumulative amount of volume is achieved or exceeded. Consequently, once the cumulative amount of volume is achieved or exceeded - a bar is produced at the corresponding price level.
Underlying theory: The chat type is conducive to identifying price levels where traders are “trapped”. Whether the process adequately distinguishes this circumstance is to your discretion.
The image above exemplifies the Volume Aggregation chart type.
Regardless of the current price, Volume Aggregation bars for after a requisite amount of volume is achieved/exceeded. Tick data isn't used; therefore, remainder values are carry over.
By default, the script automatically calculates a proportional cumulative volume total to dictate the formation of Volume Aggregation bars. However, the cumulative threshold is configurable.
The image above shows Volume Aggregation bars forming subsequent a user-defined cumulative volume total being exceeded.
Note: This chart type uses OHLC data from the timeframe of your chart. Therefore, for instance, setting the volume threshold too low will produce inaccurate, useless data.
A warning message will appear for such occurrence.
Gaps
The indicator incorporates a "Gaps" chart type.
The image above shows accompanying features.
A list of all unfilled gaps is accessible - gaps for this list are sorted by distance from current price.
Partially filled gaps are displayed in the corresponding gap box - the percentage amount the gap was filled is also displayed.
Gap statistics show:
# of Gaps
# of Up Gaps
# of Down Gaps
Average # of bars to fill Up Gaps
Average # of bars to dill Down Gaps
Average Gap Up % increase
Average Gap Down % decrease
Cumulative % increase of all Up Gaps
Cumulative % decrease of all Down Gaps
Naturally, there may be gaps formed thousands of bars ago that aren't close to price. Showing these gaps on the chart will "scrunch" the y-axis and make prices indistinguishable.
I've added a setting that allows the user to hide gaps that are "n" % away from the current price. The gap, if unfilled, will reappear when price trades within the user-defined percentage.
The image above shows an example. There's an unfilled down gap that's "hidden" because the current price is a further % away from price than what I've specified in the settings (1%). When prices trade back within 1% of the gap - it will reappear.
The image above shows the process in action. Prices moved back within 1% (can be any %) of the gap; therefore, it reappeared on the chart.
You can also set the % distance a gap must achieve for it to be considered a gap, recorded and plotted. Additionally, you can select to "visualize" gaps. Similar to the Range US chart and the Volume Aggregation chart, this setting will bars reflecting the most recent sequence of gaps - date and percentage distance of the gap are superimposed atop the bar.
Let me know if there's anything else you'd like included!
Note: The initial compilation time for this script is.... high. However, once the script's compiled, calculation load times are quick and you can sift through assets and timeframes relatively quick.
There's also a setting to "Improve Load Times" in the user-inputs table. This setting only improves the load times for post-compilation calculations and plots. The initial compilation load time is unchanged. Simply, once the indicator has "first loaded", all subsequent loads are quick.
Thank you! (:
TF Segmented Polynomial Regression [LuxAlgo]This indicator displays polynomial regression channels fitted using data within a user selected time interval.
The model is fitted using the same method described in our previous script:
Settings
Degree: Degree of the fitted polynomial
Width: Multiplicative factor of the model RMSE. Controls the width of the polynomial regression's channels
Timeframe: Fits the polynomial regression using data within the selected timeframe interval
Show fit for new bars: If selected, will fit the regression model for newly generated bars, else the previous fitted value is displayed.
Src: Input source
Usage
Segmented (or piecewise) models yield multiple fits by first partitioning the data into multiple intervals from specific partitioning conditions. In this script this partitioning condition is for a user selected timeframe to change.
Segmented models can be particularly pertinent for market prices, which often describes a series of local trends.
Segmented polynomial regressions can describe the nature of underlying trends in the price from their fit, such as if an underlying trend is more linear (trending) or constant (ranging), and if a trend is monotonic.
The above chart shows a monthly partitioning on SPX 15m, using a polynomial regression of degree 3. Channel extremities allows highlighting local tops/bottoms.
For real time applications users can choose to fit a current model to incoming price data using the Show fit for new bars settings.
Details
The script does not make use of line.new to display the segmented linear regressions, which allows showing a higher number of historical fits. Each channel extremity as well as the model fit is displayed from the plot function, as such user can more easily set alerts on them.
It is important to note that achieving this requires accessing future price data, as such this script is subject to lookahead bias, historical results differ from the results one could have obtained in real-time.
Volume Profile, Pivot Anchored by DGTVolume Profile (also known as Price by Volume ) is an charting study that displays trading activity over a specified time period at specific price levels. It is plotted as a horizontal histogram on the finacial isntrumnet's chart that highlights the trader's interest at specific price levels. Specified time period with Pivots Anchored Volume Profile is determined by the Pivot Levels, where the Pivot Points High Low indicator is used and presented with this Custom indicator
Finally, Volume Weighted Colored Bars indicator is presneted with the study

Input Source█ OVERVIEW
This script demonstrates how your script can provide multiple input source selections while still allowing the use of an external indicator input.
█ CONCEPTS
There are occasions when one needs to provide script users with multiple input source selections while still allowing the selection of an external input. This is usually impossible because for external indicators to appear in an input widget's dropdown menu, only one input.source() call must be used in the script. If multiple calls are used, then no external indicator can be selected in any of the script's input widgets.
This script demonstrates how you can provide input sources offering a selection among the usual source built-ins ( open , high , low , close , hl2 , hlc3 , ohlc4 , hlcc4 ), but without the ability for users to select an external indicator. This allows your script to use multiple source inputs while still using one source input allowing the selection of an external input.

FULL MA Optimization ScriptHello!
This script measures the performance of 10 moving averages and compares them!
Crossover and crossunders are both tested.
The tested moving averages include: TEMA, DEMA, EMA, SMA, ALMA, HMA, T3 Average, WMA, VWMA, LSMA.
You can select the length of the moving averages and the data source (I.E, close, open, ohlc4, etc.) and the script will calculate your selections!
For instance, if you select a length of 32 and a source of ohlc4 for crossovers, the script will assign the ten moving averages that length and data source and compare the performance for ohlc4 crossovers of the 32TEMA, 32DEMA, 32SMA, 32WMA, etc. If you select crossunder, the script will calculate the performance of ohlc4 crossunders of the same moving average lengths.
Moving average performances are listed in descending order (best to worst) and are categorized by tier: Upper-Tier, Mid-Tier, Lower-Tier. The Upper-Tier displays the three best performing averages relative to the MA length and data source, for the asset on the relevant chart timeframe. The Lower-Tier displays the three worst performing averages. The Mid-Tier displays the moving averages whose performance did not achieve a top three spot or a bottom three spot.
Also calculated is the moving average which achieved the highest cumulative gain/loss and the lowest cumulative gain/loss. Any asset and timeframe can be tested; the script recalculates relative to the chart timeframe. I added a "Benchmark Moving Average" free parameter and a "Custom Moving Average" free parameter. The two operate identically; you can set the length and data source of both for quick and simple comparison between differing average lengths and sources.
If "Crossover" is selected, the "(X Candles)" displayed on the tables reflects the average number of sessions the data source remains above a moving average following a crossover. If "Crossunder" is selected, the "(X Candles)" reflects the average number of sessions the data source remains below the moving average following a crossunder.
If "Crossover" is selected, the listed "X%" reflects the average percentage gain/loss following a source crossover of a moving average up until the source crosses back under the moving average. If "Crossunder" is selected, the listed "X%" reflects the average percentage gain/loss following a source crossunder of a moving average up until the source crosses back over the moving average.
If "Crossover" is selected, the listed "X Crosses" reflects the number of instances in which the source crossed over a moving average. If "Crossunder" is selected, the listed "X Crosses" reflects the number of instances in which the source crossed under a moving average.
Additional tooltips and instructions are included should you access the user input menu.
The moving averages can be plotted as a gradient (highest priced MA to lowest priced MA) alongside the best performing moving average. The moving averages can be plotted in full color, light color alongside the best performing average, or not plotted.
This script improves upon a similar script I have released:
I decided not to update the previous script. The previous script calculates crossovers only and, due to being less code intensive, calculates much quicker. If a user is concerned only with price crossovers, not crossunders, the original script is a better option! It's faster, making it the preferable choice!
This script "FULL MA Optimization" calculates crossovers/crossunders and incorporates additional plot styles. I ran into trouble a few times where the script was too large to run on TV. This script is not "slow", I suppose; however, calculations and parameter modifications take a bit longer than the original script!
Overnight Gap AnalysisThere is a wide range of opinion on holding positions overnight due to gap risk. So, out of curiosity, I coded this analysis as a strategy to see what the result of only holding a position overnight on an asset would be. The results really surprised me. The script backtests 10+ years, and here are the findings:
Holding a position for 1 hour bar overnight on QQQ since January 2010 results in a 545% return. QQQ's entire return holding through the same period is 643%
The max equity drawdown on holding that position overnight is lower then the buy/hold drawdown on the underlying asset.
It doesn't matter if the last bar of the day is green or red, the results are similar.
It doesn't matter if it is a bull or bear market. Filtering the script to only trade when the price is above the 200-day moving average actually reduces its return from 545% to 301%, though it does also reduce drawdown.
I see similar patterns when applying the script to other index ETFs. Applying it to leveraged index ETFs can end up beating buy/hold of the underlying index.
Since this script holds through the 1st bar of the day, this could also speak to a day-opening price pattern
The default inputs are for the script to be applied to 1 hour charts only that have 7 bars on the chart per day. You can apply it to other chart types, but must follow the instructions below for it to work properly.
What the script is doing :
This script is buying the close of the last bar of the day and closing the trade at the close of the next bar. So, all trades are being held for 1 bar. By default, the script is setup for use on a 1hr chart that has 7 bars per day. If you try to apply it to a different timeframe, you will need to adjust the count of the last bar of the day with the script input. I.e. There are 7 bars per day on an hour chart on US Stocks/ETFs, so the input is set to 7 by default.
Other ways this script can be used :
This script can also test the result of holding a position over any 1 bar in the day using that same input. For instance, on an hour chart you can input 6 on the script input, and it will model buying the close of the 6th bar of the day while selling on the close of the next bar. I used this out of curiosity to model what only holding the last bar of the day would result in. On average, you lose money on the last bar every day.
The irony here is that the root cause of this last bar of the day losing may be people selling their positions at the end of day so that they aren't exposed to overnight gap risk.

[Sextan] KAMA BacktestLevel: 1
NOTE: This is ONLY an EXAMPLE on HOW-TO produce a customized "{Sextan} PINEv4 Sextans Backtest Framework" with intput signal source as my "{blackcat} L2 Perry Kaufman Adaptive MA (KAMA)" quickly and drawing on main chart. You can backtest many of my indicators in minutes now!
Of course,you can define your own indicator in the highlighted area in compliance with the uniform format, which guarantee when you use "Indicator on Indicator" function, it would not produce any error.
Background
Backtesting of technical indicators and strategies is the most common way to understand a quantitative strategy. However, the complicated configuration and adaptation work of backtesting many quantitative tools makes many traders who do not understand the code daunted. Moreover, although I have written a lot of strategies, I am still not very satisfied with the backtest configuration and writing efficiency. Therefore, I have been thinking about how to build a backtesting framework that can quickly and easily evaluate the backtesting performance of any indicator with a "long/short entry" indicator, that is, a "simple backtesting tool for dummies". The performance requirements should be stable, and the operation should be simple and convenient. It is best to "copy", "paste", and "a few mouse clicks" to complete the quick backtest and evaluation of a new indicator.
Luckily, I recently realized that TradingView provides an "Indicator on Indicator" feature, which is the perfect foundation for doing "hot swap" backtesting. My basic idea is to use a two-layer design. The first layer is the technical indicator signal source that needs to be embedded, which is only used to provide buy and sell signals of custom strategies; the second layer is the trading system, which is used to receive the output signals of the first layer, and filter the signals according to the agreed specifications. , Take Profit, Stop Loss, draw buy and sell signals and cost lines, define and send custom buy and sell alert messages to mobile phones, social software or trading interfaces. In general, this two-layer design is a flexible combination of "death and alive", which can meet the needs of most traders to quickly evaluate the performance of a certain technical indicator. The first layer here is flexible. Users can insert their own strategy codes according to my template, and they can draw buy and sell signals and output them to the second layer. The second layer is fixed, and the overall framework is solidified to ensure the stability and unity of the trading system. It is convenient to compare different or similar strategies under the same conditions. Finally, all trading signals are drawn on the chart, and the output strategy returns. test report.
The main function:
The first layer: "{Sextan} Your Indicator Source", the script provides a template for personalized strategy input, and the signal and definition interfaces ensure full compatibility with the second layer. Backtesting is performed stably in the backtesting framework of the layer. The first layer of this script is also relatively simple: enter your script in the highlighted custom script area, and after ensuring the final buy and sell signals long = bool condition, short = bool condition, the design of the first layer is considered complete. Input it into the PINE script editor of TradingView, save it and add it to the chart, you can see the pulse sequence in yellow (buy) and purple (sell) on the sub-picture, corresponding to the main picture, you can subjectively judge that the quality of the trading point of the strategy is good Bad.
The second layer: "{Sextan} PINEv4 Sextans Backtest Framework". This script is the standardized trading system strategy execution and alarm, used to generate the final report of the strategy backtest and some key indicators that I have customized that I find useful, such as: winning rate , Odds, Winning Surface, Kelly Ratio, Take Profit and Stop Loss Thresholds, Trading Frequency, etc. are evaluated according to the Kelly formula. To use the second layer, first load it into the TrainingView chart, no markers will appear on the chart, since you have not specified any strategy source signals, click on the gear-shaped setting next to the "{Sextan} PINEv4 Sextans BTFW" header button, you can open the backtest settings, the first item is to select your custom strategy source. Because we have added the strategy source to the chart in the previous step, you can easily find an option "{Sextan} Your Indicator Source: Signal" at the bottom of the list, this is the strategy source input we need, select and confirm , you can see various markers on the main graph, and quickly generate a backtesting profit graph and a list of backtesting reports. You can generate files and download the backtesting reports locally. You can also click the gear on the backtest chart interface to customize some conditions of the backtest, including: initial capital amount, currency type, percentage of each order placed, amount of pyramid additions, commission fees, slippage, etc. configuration. Note: The configuration in the interface dialog overrides the same configuration implemented by the code in the backtest script.
How to output charts:
The first layer: "{Sextan} Your Indicator Source", the output of this script is the pulse value of yellow and purple, yellow +1 means buy, purple -1 means sell.
The second layer: PINEv4 Sextans Backtest Framework". The output of this script is a bit complicated. After all, it is the entire trading system with a lot of information:
1. Blue and red arrows. The blue upward arrow indicates long position, the red downward arrow indicates short position, and the horizontal bar at the end of the purple arrow indicates take profit or stop loss exit.
2. Red and green lines. This is the holding cost line of the strategy, green represents the cost of holding a long position, and red represents the cost of holding a short position. The cost line is a continuous solid line and the price action is relatively close.
3. Green and yellow long take profit and stop loss area and green and yellow long take profit and stop loss fork. Once a long position is held, there is a conditional order for take profit and stop loss. The green horizontal line is the long take profit ratio line, and the yellow is the long stop loss ratio line; the green cross indicates the long take profit price, and the yellow cross indicates the long position. Stop loss price. It's worth noting that the prongs and wires don't necessarily go together. Because of the optimization of the algorithm, for a strong market, the take profit will occur after breaking the take profit line, and the profit will not be taken until the price falls.
4. The purple and red short take profit and stop loss area and the purple red short stop loss fork. Once a short position is held, there will be a take profit and stop loss conditional order, the red is the short take profit ratio line, and the purple is the short stop loss ratio line; the red cross indicates the short take profit price, and the purple cross indicates the short stop loss price.
5. In addition to the above signs, there are also text and numbers indicating the profit and loss values of long and short positions. "L" means long; "S" means short; "XL" means close long; "XS" means close short.
TradingView Strategy Tester Panel:
The overview graph is an intuitive graph that plots the blue (gain) and red (loss) curves of all backtest periods together, and notes: the absolute value and percentage of net profit, the number of all closed positions, the winning percentage, the profit factor, The maximum trading loss, the absolute value and ratio of the average trading profit and loss, and the average number of K-lines held in all trades.
Another is the performance summary. This is to display all long and short statistical indicators of backtesting in the form of a list, such as: net profit, gross profit, Sharpe ratio, maximum position, commission, times of profit and loss, etc.
Finally, the transaction list is a table indexed by the transaction serial number, showing the signal direction, date and time, price, profit and loss, accumulated profit and loss, maximum transaction profit, transaction loss and other values.
Remarks
Finally, I will explain that this is just the beginning of this model. I will continue to optimize the trading system of the second layer. Various optimization feedback and suggestions are welcome. For valuable feedback, I am willing to provide some L4/L5 technical indicators as rewards for free subscription rights.
Support Resistance InteractiveHello All,
Using this "Support Resistance Interactive" script you can set the Support/Resistance levels interactively by clicking on the chart. Using the SR levels you set, the indicator creates Support Resistance zones. The width of the zones are calculated by using Threshold option and Threshold is the percent of the distance between Highest/Lowest levels in last 300 bars. if you set Threshold = 1 then it means 1% of the distance between Highest/Lowest levels. You can change SR levels by moving the level up/down by using your mouse anytime you want.
Now lets see it step by step;
After you added the indicator it will ask 5 Support/Resistance Levels and when you click any point then it's kept as S/R level and it asks another SR levels. if you want to use only 3 SR levels then last 2 SR levels are not important and you can click anywhere on the chart;
After you set all SR levels, it will ask "Number of Support/Resistance" . if you want to activate first 3 SR lines then set it 3. by default it's 5. when you set it click "Apply" and see the SR zones. that's it.
You can enable/disable alerts and set frequency, then create alerts. as it's interactive tool, the SR levels you set are specific for the current/active symbol. if you open another symbol then you better delete the indicator and add it again
Three Alerts exist in the script: Support Broken, Resistance Broken and Price in SR zone . you can enable/disable the alerts as you wish and you can set frequency for each one as "Once Per Bar" or "Once Per Bar Close"
by default Green/Red/Gray colors are used but You can change the colors using the options. according to the Price moves, SR zone colors are changed automatically.
when we have "Reset" feature to run the script interactively (like we added it for first time) I can update the script, then you will not need to delete/re-add each time you changed the symbol :)
In this example "Threshold" is 2 and "Number of Support/Resistance" is 4.
in this example "Threshold" is 0 and "Number of Support/Resistance" is 5.
Last example; Labels are shown for each zone, you can set location of the labels. SR order and Upper/lower band of each zone are shown in each label.
Enjoy!
Distance Oscillator - Support and Resistance by DGT
Prices high above the Moving Average (MA) or low below it are likely to be remedied in the future by a reverse price movement as stated in the article by Denis Alajbeg, Zoran Bubas and Dina Vasic published in International Journal of Economics, Commerce and Management
This study is the third variant that aims to present this idea, and the output of the study is presented as lines that serve as possible support and resistance levels in the future.
1st variant of the idea is presented as an centered oscillator, link to Price Distance to its MA Study , within its description you may find more about the idea and some statistical observations. Also some derivatives with MACD-X, More Than MACD and P-MACD
2nd variant of the idea are presented as colored triangle line (Volatility Colored Price/MA Line), using the same calculation methods and presented in the bottom of price chart.
Link to studies where it is included : Colored Directional Movement and Bollinger Band's Cloud , SuperTrendRange and Pivot Points vX
3rd variant (this study) as stated earlier aims to present the same idea as support and resistance levels.
Options
The users can adjust source and length of the moving average that is used as base for the distance oscillator
Signal triggering options includes length for the deviation bands, multiplier as well as smoothing of the oscillator
Line customization settings
Additionally an alert can be configured to be warned earlier to watch out for probable pullbacks or reversals
Technical details for whom interested
Calculating the price distance to the MA results in a centered oscillator lets call it Distance Oscillator (quite similar to the RSI), as shown in the blow chart
Unlike RSI, oscillations with the distance oscillator are not limited within a specific range, hence identifying overbought and oversold is not as straight forward as it is with RSI. To determine overbought and oversold levels, standard deviation of distance oscillator is calculated and bands generated with the same approach applied with Bollinger Bands.
Once we have the threshold bands then crossing those bands we may assume as important levels and draw a line, if oscillator values keeps above the threshold bands (deviation bands) the logic behind the code will update the line drawing accordingly.
To reduce noise a smoothing can be applied
Alerts :
Please note that the implementation applied here can be applied to any oscillator such as RSI, Stochastic, MFI etc even Volume (if bear candle volumes are multiplied by -1)

Moving Stop-Loss mechanism + alerts to MT4/MT5"How to code moving stop-loss mechanism", is one of the most often repeating questions in private messages I receive, so just to focus on this mechanism, I made a spin-off from my previous script: TradingView-Alerts-to-MT4-MT5-dynamic-variables-NON-REPAINTING .
The logic here moves the stop-loss each time a trade is running and a new pivot high/low is detected. When such event occurs (UpdateLongStopLoss or UpdateShortStopLoss), stoploss_long or stoploss_short mutable variable is modified. And it needs to be coded inside strategy.exit() line as "stop=stoploss_long" or "stop=stoploss_short". Entries are pretty straightforward - on Stoch crosses.
Last lines of the script show how to wrap information about such updates and send send alerts to MetaTrader via TradingConnector for execution in Forex/indices/commodities/crypto markets via MetaTrader. Please note that "tradeid=" variable must be passed with each alert, to let MetaTrader know which trade to modify. SLMOD, TPMOD are recently added commands, along with BE (as in "move stop-loss to breakeven" - but that's another topic).
Please disregard strategy backtest results, as this script is for coding education purposes only. However, it seems with the stop-loss mechanism enabled, the results are even better, than in original version of the script :)
Color Gradient Framework [PineCoders]█ OVERVIEW
This indicator shows how you can use the new color functions in Pine to generate color gradients. We provide functions that will help Pine coders generate gradients for multiple use cases using base colors for bull and bear states.
█ CONCEPTS
For coders interested in maximizing the use of color in their scripts, TradingView has added new color functions and new functionality to existing functions. For us coders, this translates in the ability to generate colors on the fly and use dynamic colors ("series color") in more places.
New functions allow us to:
• Generate colors dynamically from calculated RGBA components ("A" is the Alpha channel, known to Pine coders as the "transparency"). See color.rgb() .
• Extract RGBA components from existing colors. See color.r() , color.g() , color.b() and color.t() .
• Generate linear gradients between two colors. See color.from_gradient() .
Improvements to existing color/plotting functions allow more flexible use of color:
• plotcandle() now accepts a "series color" argument for its `wickcolor` and `bordercolor` parameters.
• plotarrow() now accepts a "series color" argument for its `colorup` and `colordown` parameters.
Gradients are not only useful to make script visuals prettier; they can be used to pack more information in your displays. Our gradient #4 goes overboard with the concept by using a different gradient for the source line, its fill, and the background.
█ OUR SCRIPT
The script presents four functions to generate gradients:
f_c_gradientRelative(_source, _min, _max, _c_bear, _c_bull)
f_c_gradientRelativePro(_source, _min, _max, _c_bearWeak, _c_bearStrong, _c_bullWeak, _c_bullStrong)
f_c_gradientAdvDec(_source, _center, _c_bear, _c_bull)
f_c_gradientAdvDecPro(_source, _center, _steps, _c_bearWeak, _c_bearStrong, _c_bullWeak, _c_bullStrong)
The relative gradient functions are useful to generate gradients on a source that oscillates between known upper/lower limits. They use the relative position of the source between the `_min` and `_max` levels to generate the color. A centerline is derived from the `_min` and `_max` levels. The source's position above/below that centerline determines if the bull/bear color is used, and the relative position of the source between the centerline and the max/min level determines the gradient of the bull/bear color.
The advance/decline gradient functions are useful to generate gradients on a source for which min/max levels are unknown. These functions use source advances and declines to determine a gradient level. The `f_c_gradientAdvDec()` version uses the historical maximum of advances/declines to determine how many correspond to the strongest bull/bear colors, making its gradients adaptive. The `f_c_gradientAdvDecPro()` version requires the explicit number of advances/declines that correspond to the strongest bull/bear colors. This is useful when coloring chart bars, for example, where too many gradient levels are difficult to distinguish. Using the Pro version of the function allows you to limit the number of gradient levels to 5, for example, so that transitions are fewer, but more obvious. The `_center` parameter of the advance/decline functions allows them to determine which of the bull/bear colors to use.
Note that the custom `f_colorNew(_color, _transp)` function we use in our script should soon no longer be necessary, as changes are under way to allow color.new() to accept series arguments.
Inputs
The script's inputs demonstrate one way you can allow users to choose base bull/bear colors. Because users can modify any of the colors, only two are technically needed: one for bull, one for bear, as we do for the configuration of the bull/bear colors for the background in the gradient #4 configuration. Providing a few presets from which users can choose can be useful for color-challenged script users, but that type of inputs has the disadvantage of not rendering optimally in all OS/Browser environments.
You can use the inputs to select one of eight gradient demonstrations to display.

Auto PitchFan, Fib Extension/Retracement and ZigZag by DGT Aᴜᴛᴏ PɪᴛᴄʜFᴀɴ, Fɪʙ Exᴛᴇɴꜱɪᴏɴ/Rᴇᴛʀᴀᴄᴇᴍᴇɴᴛ ᴀɴᴅ ZɪɢZᴀɢ
This study aim to automate PitchFan drawing tool and combines it with Fibonacci Extentions/Retracements and ZigZag.
Common setting options, applied to all components of the study
Deviation , is a multiplier that affects how much the price should deviate from the previous pivot in order for the bar to become a new pivot. Increasing its value is one way to get higher timeframe Levels
Depth , affects the minimum number of bars that will be taken into account when building
Historical PitchFan / Fibonacci Levels option will allow plotting of PitchFan / Fibonacci Levels on previous Pivot Highs/Lows
█ PɪᴛᴄʜFᴀɴ — is a set of rays spreading out of the point of a trend's beginning. These rays inclined with the coefficients formed by a Fibonacci number sequence. It is recommended to adjust the Pitchfan plottings to fit after the first wave of the trend has passed and the correction has clearly begun.
PitchFan rays corresponding to Fibonacci levels appear on a chart and represent inclined lines of support and resistance. Price areas near these rays are estimated areas from which the price can turn around or make a significant rebound. The whole logic of working with a pitchfan is based on one simple idea - if the price has bounced off the level, then the correction is likely to end, and the trend will continue. If the price has broken the first resistance, you should wait for the next level test
- Automatically plots PitchFan Rays, based on Pivot Lows/Highs.
- Ability to set ALERTs for each PitchFan Ray Level
- PitchFan Labels displays the price of the line at the last bar, the price value will be recalculated in each new bar
Please check the link provided below with the educational post of how to apply pitchfork, application of pitchfan is same keeping in mind the recommendation stated above
█ Fɪʙ Rᴇᴛʀᴀᴄᴇᴍᴇɴᴛs / Exᴛᴇɴꜱɪᴏɴꜱ
Fibonacci retracements is a popular instrument used by technical analysts to determine support and resistance areas. In technical analysis, this tool is created by taking two extreme points (usually a peak and a trough) on the chart and dividing the vertical distance by the key Fibonacci coefficients equal to 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, and 100%.
Fibonacci extensions are a tool that traders can use to establish profit targets or estimate how far a price may travel AFTER a retracement/pullback is finished. Extension levels are also possible areas where the price may reverse.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Fibonacci extensions option may require to do further adjustment of the study parameters for proper usage. Extensions are aimed to be used when a trend is present and they aim to measure how far a price may travel AFTER a retracement/pullback. I will strongly suggest users of this study to check the education post for further details where to use extensions and where to use retracements
- Automatically plots possible Support and Resistance levels, based on Pivot Lows/Highs.
- Ability to set ALERTs for each Fibonacci Extension/Retracement Level
- Labels displays the level and the level price
█ Zɪɢ Zᴀɢ — The Zig Zag indicator is used to help identify price trends and changes in price trends. The Zig Zag indicator plots points on a chart whenever prices reverse by a percentage greater than a Deviation variable. Straight lines are then drawn, connecting these points. The Zig Zag indicator serves base for PitchFan and Fibonacci Retracements / Extensions

RSI+PA+DCA StrategyDear Tradingview community,
This RSI based trading strategy is created as a training exercise. I am not a professional trader, but a committed hobbyist. This not a finished trading strategy meant for trading, but more a combination of different trading ideas I liked to explore deeper. The aim with this exercise was to gain more knowledge and understanding about price averaging and dollar cost averaging strategies. Aside that I wanted to learn how to program a pyramiding strategy, how to plot different order entry layers and how to open positions on a specific time interval.
In this script I adapted code from a couple of strategy examples by Coinrule . Who wrote simple and powerful examples of RSI based strategies and pyramiding strategies.
Also the HOWTO scripts shared by vitvlkv were very helpful for this exercise. In the script description you can find all the sources to the code.
A PA strategy could be a helpful addition to ease the 'stress-management to buy when price drops and resolution in selling when the price is rising' (Coinrule).
The idea behind the strategy is fairly simple and is based on an RSI strategy of buying low. A position is entered when the RSI and moving average conditions are met. The position is closed when it reaches a specified take profit percentage. As soon as the first the position is openend multiple PA (price average) layers are setup based on a specified percentage of price drop. When the price crosses the layer another position with somewhat the same amount of assets is entered. This causes the average cost price (the red plot line) to decrease. If the price drops more, another similar amount of assets is bought with another price average decrease as result. When the price starts rising again the different positions are separately closed when each reaches its specified take profit. The positions can be re-openend when the price drops again. And so on. When the price rises more and crosses over the average price and reached the specified take profit on top of it, it closes all the positions at once and cancels all orders. From that moment on it waits for another price dip before it opens a new position.
Another option is to activate a DCA function that opens a position based on a fixed specified amount. It enters a position at the start of every week and only when there are already other positions openend and if the current price is below the average price of the position. Like this buying on a time interval can help lowering the average price in case the market is down.
I read in some articles that price averaging is also called dollar cost averaging as the result is somewhat the same. Although DCA is really based on buying on fixed time intervals. These strategies are both considered long term investment strategies that can be profitable in the long run and are not suitable for short term investment schemes. The downturn is that the postion size increases when the general market trend is going down and that you have to patiently wait until the market start rising again.
Another notable aspect is that the logic in this strategy works the way it does because the entries are exited based on the FIFO (first in first out) close entry rule. This means that the first exit is applied to the first entry position that is openend. In other words that when the third entry reaches its take profit level and exits, it actually exits the first entry. If you take a close look in the 'List of Trades' of your Strategy Tester panel, you can see that some 'Long1' entries are closed by an 'Exit 3' and not by an 'Exit 1'. This means that your trade partly loses, but causes a decrease in average price that is later balanced out by lower or repeated entering and closing other positions. You can change this logic to a real sequential way of closing your entries, but this changes the averaging logic considerably. In case you want to test this you need to change, in this line in the strategy call 'close_entries_rule = "FIFO"', the word FIFO to ANY.
In the settings you can specify the percentage of portfolio to use for each trade to spread the risk and for each order a trading fee of 0.075% is calculated.
Market Structure (Nephew_Sam_)This indicator consists of 3 features:
1. Plots label to the right for current market structure
2. Plots dashed line to show where the next market structure would be
3. Draws arrows above/below historical market structure breaks
This might get a little to noisy in ranging markets or lower timeframes but it does the job.

Neglected Volume by DGTVolume is one piece of information that is often neglected, however, learning to interpret volume brings many advantages and could be of tremendous help when it comes to analyzing the markets. In addition to technicians, fundamental investors also take notice of the numbers of shares traded for a given security.
What is Volume?
The volume represents all the recorded trades for a security that occurs in a given time interval. It is a measurement of the participation, enthusiasm, and interest in a given security. Think of volume as the force that drives the market. Volume substantiates, energizes, and empowers price. When volume increases, it confirms price direction; when volume decreases, it contradicts price direction.
In theory, increases in volume generally precede significant price movements. However, If the price is rising in an uptrend but the volume is reducing or unchanged, it may show that there’s little interest in the security, and the price may reverse.
A high volume usually indicates more interest in the security and the presence of institutional traders. However, a rapidly rising price in an uptrend accompanied by a huge volume may be a sign of exhaustion.
Traders usually look for breaks of support and resistance to enter positions. When security break critical levels without volume, you should consider the breakout suspect and prime for a reversal off the highs/lows
Volume spikes are often the result of news-driven events. Volume spike will often lead to sharp reversals since the moves are unsustainable due to the imbalance of supply and demand
note : there’s no centralized exchange where trades are recorded, so the volume data represents what happens at a particular exchange only
In most charting platforms, the volume indicator is presented as color-coded bars, green if the security closes up and red if the security closed lower, where the height of the bars show the amount of the recorded trades
Within this study, Relative Volume , Volume Weighted Bars and Volume Moving Average are presented, where Relative Volume relates current trading volume to past trading volume over long period, Volume Weighted Bars presents price bars colored based on short period past trading volume average, and Volume Moving Average is average of volume over shot period
Relative Volume is presented as color-coded bars similar to regular Volume indicator but uses four color codes instead two. Notable increases of volume are presented in green and red while average values with back and gray, hence adding ability to emphasis notable increases in the volume. It is kind of a like a radar for how "in-play" a security is. Users are allowed to change the threshold, default value is set to Fibonacci golden ration standard deviation away from its moving average.
Volume Weighted Bars, a study of Kıvanç Özbilgiç, aims to present if price movements are supported by Volume. Volume Weighted Bars are calculated based on shot period volume moving average which will reflect more recent changes in volume. Price actions with high volume will be displayed with darker colors, average volume values will remain as they are and low volume values will be indicated with lighter colors.
Volume Moving Average, Is short period volume moving average, aims to display visually the volume changes. Please not that Relative Volume bars are calculated based on standard deviation of long volume moving average.
What Else?
Apart from the volume itself, your ability to assess what volume is telling you in conjunction with price action can be a key factor in your ability to turn a profit in the market. It makes little sense to analyze the volume alone. To correctly interpret the volume data, it shall be seen in the light of what the price is doing. there are a lot of other indicators that are based on the volume data as well as price action. Analysing those volume indicators has always helped traders and investors to better understand what is happening in the market.
Here are the ones adapted with this study. Some of them used as a source for our aim, some adapted as they are with slight changes to fit visually to this study and please note that the numerical presentation may differ from their regular use
• On Balance Volume
• Divergence Indicator
• Correlation Coefficient
• Chaikin Money Flow
Shortly;
On Balance Volume
The On Balance Volume indicator, is a technical analysis indicator that relates volume flow to changes in a security’s price. It uses a cumulative total of positive and negative trading volume to predict the direction of price. The OBV is a volume-based momentum oscillator, so it is a leading indicator — it changes direction before the price
Granville, creator of OBV, proposed the theory that changes in volume precede price movements in a measurable way. He believed that volume was the main force behind major market moves and thought of OBV’s prediction of price changes as a compressed spring that expands rapidly when released.
It is believed that the OBV shows the interactions between the institutional and retail traders in the market
If the price makes a new high, the OBV should also make a new high. If the OBV makes a lower high when the price makes a higher high, there’s a classical bearish divergence — indicating that only the retail traders are buying. Another type of bearish divergence occurs when the price remains relatively quiet and fails to make a higher high but the OBV soars higher than the previous high — indicating that the institutional traders are accumulating short positions. On the other hand, if the price makes a lower low and the OBV makes a higher low, there is a classical bullish divergence, showing that the institutional traders don’t believe in that move
With this study, Momentum and Acceleration (optional) of OBV is calculated and presented, where momentum is most commonly referred to as a rate and measures the acceleration of the price and/or volume of a security. It is also referred to as a technical analysis indicator and oscillator that is able to determine market trends.
Additionally, smoothing functionality with Least Squares Method is added
Divergences especially, should always be noted as a possible reversal in the current trend, so the divergence indicator is adapted with this study where the Momentum of OBV is assumed as Oscillator with similar usages as to RSI. Divergence is most often used to track and analyze the momentum in an asset’s price and the odds of a price reversal within the current trend. The divergence indicator warns traders and technical analysts of changes in a price/volume trend, oftentimes that it is weakening or changing direction.
Correlation Coefficient
The correlation coefficient is a statistical measure of the strength of the relationship between the relative movements of two variables. A correlation of -1.0 shows a perfect negative correlation, while a correlation of 1.0 shows a perfect positive correlation. A correlation of 0.0 shows no linear relationship between the movement of the two variables. In other words, the closer the Correlation Coefficient is to 1.0, indicates the instruments will move up and down together as it is mostly expected with volume and price. So the Correlation Coefficient Indicator aims to display when the price and volume (on balance volume) is in correlation and when not. With this study blue represent positive correlation while orange negative correlation. The strength of the correlation is determined by the width of the bands, to emphasis the effect horizontal lines are drawn with values set to 0.5 and -0.5. the values above 0.5 (or below -0.5) shows stronger correlation.
Chaikin Money Flow , provide optionally as a companion indicator
The Chaikin money flow indicator (CMF) is a volume indicator that measures the money flow volume over a chosen period. The money flow volume is a measure of the volume and where the price closed relative to the trading session’s range. It comes from the idea that buying pressure is indicated by a rising volume and recurrent closes in the upper part of the session’s price range while selling pressure is demonstrated by an increasing volume and repeated closes in the lower part of the price range.
Both buying and selling pressures are accompanied by an increase in volume, but the location of the closing prices are in accordance with the direction of price
