+ Stochastic S/R ZonesHey, all. I have a new indicator here that displays zones on your price chart where the stochastic oscillator has moved out of overbought or oversold back into the range of the indicator that is bounded by those two levels.
I know there are many support and resistance indicators on TradingView already, at least a couple of which use the RSI in a similar way as I am using the stochastic here, but I still believe this is a fairly novel interpretation of the stochastic, and it is, in my opinion, a better oscillator than the RSI to be used in this way.
In addition to the zones being plotted on the chart, the indicator also, optionally, can color candles or plot shapes above candles when the 50 line is crossed, so if you want to use this as a simple momentum indicator without desire of having the below chart indicator taking up screen space, you're pretty much covered on the typical signals you might want from it (with the exception of %K / %D crosses, but there are alerts for that).
Visually, it is a simple, clean indicator. There are the zones, and then candle colors or shapes if you opt to add those. These zones are actually drawn from the candle preceding the cross over or cross under. Reason for that is often times the candle of the cross is fairly impulsive and exiting a consolidation. That period of consolidation is what is important to highlight, at least as far as I am concerned. The zones themselves extend until they are broken by a candle. A support zone stops at the candle that closes below its low. Vice versa for a resistance zone.
Usage is fairly simple. All the standard stochastic inputs are available for you to adjust to your heart's content. Additionally, you can choose either the %K or %D line to use as the source from which the zones are drawn, candles are colored, and shapes are plotted. Not sure if this will matter to most people, but I figured it should be made available.
This should be obvious, but I feel it must be said, just because an oscillator (any oscillator) has exited overbought or oversold does not mean that there must be a reversal (or in the case of a trend pullback, continuation). The oscillator can always simply immediately move back into overbought/sold. Just because a support box prints does not mean you should mortgage your house on a long trade. In strong trends, and depending on your oscillator settings, the indicator might draw a box then only a couple of candles later break it, continuing on with the trend. This of course is telling you something, and you would be wise to listen. As with all things trading, context is important.
Here are a few extra screens for you.
I really hope you all like this. It's been ages since I've created anything new, and despite its simplicity and the few lines of code that make it up, it took a lot of work, as I am a poor coder.
Enjoy,
Scott

RSI, SRSI, MACD and DMI cross - Open source codeHello,
I'm a passionate trader who has spent years studying technical analysis and exploring different trading strategies. Through my research, I've come to realize that certain indicators are essential tools for conducting accurate market analysis and identifying profitable trading opportunities. In particular, I've found that the RSI, SRSI, MACD cross, and Di cross indicators are crucial for my trading success.
Detailed explanation:
The RSI is a momentum indicator that measures the strength of price movements. It is calculated by comparing the average of gains and losses over a certain period of time. In this indicator, the RSI is calculated based on the close price with a length of 14 periods.
The Stochastic RSI is a combination of the Stochastic Oscillator and the RSI. It is used to identify overbought and oversold conditions of the market. In this indicator, the Stochastic RSI is calculated based on the RSI with a length of 14 periods.
The MACD is a trend-following momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages of prices. It consists of two lines, the MACD line and the signal line, which are used to generate buy and sell signals. In this indicator, the MACD is calculated based on the close price with fast and slow lengths of 12 and 26 periods, respectively, and a signal length of 9 periods.
The DMI is a trend-following indicator that measures the strength of directional movement in the market. It consists of three lines, the Positive Directional Indicator (+DI), the Negative Directional Indicator (-DI), and the Average Directional Index (ADX), which are used to generate buy and sell signals. In this indicator, the DMI is calculated with a length of 14 periods and an ADX smoothing of 14 periods.
The indicator generates buy signals when certain conditions are met for each of these indicators.
1) For the RSI, a buy signal is generated when the RSI is below or equal to 35 and the Stochastic RSI %K is below or equal to 15, or when the RSI is below or equal to 28 the Stochastic RSI %K is below or equal to 15 or when the RSI is below or equal to 25 and the Stochastic RSI %K is below or equal to 10 or when the RSI is below or equal to 28.
2) For the MACD, a buy signal is generated when the MACD line is below 0, there is a change in the histogram from negative to positive, the MACD line and histogram are negative in the previous period, and the current histogram value is greater than 0.
3) For the DMI, a buy signal is generated when the Positive Directional Indicator (+DI) crosses above the Negative Directional Indicator (-DI), and the -DI is less than the +DI.
The indicator generates sell signals when certain conditions are met for each of these indicators:
1) For the RSI, a sell signal is generated when the RSI is above or equal to 75 and the Stochastic RSI %K is above or equal to 85, or when the RSI is above or equal to 80 and the Stochastic RSI %K is above or equal to 85, or when the RSI is above or equal to 85 and the Stochastic RSI %K is above or equal to 90 or when the RSI is above or equal to 82.
2)For the MACD, a sell signal is generated when the MACD line is above 0, there is a change in the histogram from positive to negative, the MACD line and histogram are positive in the previous period, and the current histogram value is less than the previous histogram value. On the other hand, a buy signal is generated when the MACD line is below 0, there is a change in the histogram from negative to positive, the MACD line and histogram are negative in the previous period, and the current histogram value is greater than the previous histogram value.
3)For the DMI a bearish signal is generated when plusDI crosses above minusDI, indicating that bulls are losing strength and bears are taking control.
The indicator uses a combination of these four indicators to generate potential buy and sell signals. The buy signals are generated when RSI and SRSI values are in oversold conditions, while sell signals are generated when RSI and SRSI values are in overbought conditions. The indicator also uses MACD crossovers and DMI crossovers to generate additional buy and sell signals.
When a signal is strong?
The use of multiple signals within a specific timeframe can increase the accuracy and reliability of the signals generated by this indicator. It is recommended to look for at least two signals within a range of 5-8 candles in order to increase the probability of a successful trade.
Why it's original?
1) There is no indicator in the library that combine all of these indicators and give you a 360 view
2)The combination of the RSI, Stochastic RSI, MACD, and DMI indicators in a single script it's unique and not available in the libray.
3)The specific parameters and conditions used to calculate the signals may be unique and not found in other scripts or libraries.
4)The use of plotshape() to plot the signals as shapes on the chart may be unique compared to other scripts that simply plot lines or bars to indicate signals.
5)The use of alertcondition() to trigger alerts based on the signals may be unique compared to other scripts that do not have custom alert functionality.
Keep attention!
It is important to note that no trading indicator or strategy is foolproof, and there is always a risk of losses in trading. While this indicator may provide useful information for making conclusions, it should not be used as the sole basis for making trading decisions. Traders should always use proper risk management techniques and consider multiple factors when making trading decisions.
