BEST Trend Direction Helper (Strategy Edition)Hello traders
A follower asked me to convert my Trend Direction Helper into a strategy
So blessed this indicator reached the 1400+ likes milestone - I can't believe how many people are trading with it
I based the setup as follow:
- Entries on those green/red labels
- exit whenever a Simple Moving Averages cross in the opposite direction happen
- possibility to filter only Longs/Shorts or both
Also...
The strategy includes the Zig Zag/Pivots high/low and other options from the indicator version. I only added a quick strategy component with a hard exit concept based on SMA cross
All the best fam and... HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!!!!!!!!!
Dave

zigzag newThis is just experimenal zigzag
The zigzag % is adaptation of Ricardo santos old Zigzag %
the pivot are from pine script manual
So it try to cross them together
I think it need much work
but as i idea i put it for anypne who is interested
ZigZag - lucemanb
THIS CODE IS BASED FROM THE MT4 ZIGZAG INDICATOR
THE ZIGZAG SETTINGS FOR THE MAIN ONE ON TRADINGVIEW DO NOT WORK THE SAME AS MT4
I HOPE U LOVE IT
I have had tons of experience on the ZIGZAG indicator and thought this might help someone.
Enjoy this code. Zigzag is a good indicator in many ways and people underestimate it because of its repainting
Check out some work ave done with this script. This is some intense angle trading requested by someone
Trend Direction Helper (ZigZag and S/R and HH/LL labels)Hey everyone
First of all, I'd like to thank Ricardo Santos, Backtest Rookies for the inspiration for this script.
Actually, most of it is coming from them and I only mixed them up (and added my secret sauce ^^). If some of you are not thinking about a trading secret sauce, please get serious for a moment :)
Some of you asked me how I do to set the trend direction. You all understood that if you get an UP label, then the price should go up and vice-versa for down.
But it's not so easy to define the good signals for each asset and each timeframe. I'm going to repeat what I said yesterday because ... well... that's what trading is about
So quoting myself here "The inputs set by default will have to be changed for your asset/timeframe and can't be generic for everything. You have to play with the inputs until the signals will make sense to you
The indicator/strategy with a unique configuration that you'll never check or update according to the market condition DOES NOT exit. "
BUT... a bit of patience and practice and you might do wonders.
The Method
I never realized until now but by connecting the higher highs/lower lows, I was drawing zigzag lines.
The Zig Zag Master is Ricardo Santos . Please give him a follow, he's awesome
For those who don't want to draw on the chart or (my preferred choice) need some inspiration to define your trend directions, this script is for YOU (and your family, your pet, your girlfriend/boyfriend, ...)
I think that each asset/timeframe chart has its own history. What worked in a post could work in the future.
In that regard, if a trend direction worked in the past, that's the parameter that I'll use to trade with it in a demo account and make sure it's relevant. If not then I will adjust
If you're trading with new indicators or a new method right away on your real trading account, you're gonna have a bad time imgflip.com
Lines EVERYWHERE
The script draws the classical horizontal pivots + the zig zag lines + the Higher Highs/Lower Lows label in just 1 script. I'm very excited to share a script (on which I coded 100 lines out of 500) but no one else did it
The horizontal pivots part are coming from Backtest Rookies
For more security, you can add a pullback on a moving average after getting a signal. Pullbacks are necessary to limit any eventual loss or maximize your gains by getting in the trend sooner.
I really give you a solid method and a great script in my opinion. 6 years of experience given away for FREE :p (when Dave will start thinking as a business man instead :O)
Does it repaint ?
Getting this question twice a day. You guys are obsessed with the repainting :)
Short answer, yes because it will calculate the pivots and zig zags whenever new higher highs/lower lows will be formed.
However, the trend direction code is based on the candle close so it shouldn't repaint. If it does, please let me know
See you all on Monday
Love you all
Dave

Zero Lag - ZigZag - JDThis is a alternative version of the well known "ZigZag indicator" but it uses turning points of the Jurik ma
instead of the traditional "pivot points" that are by definition lagging by a large lookback period, the (almost-) Zero Lag ZigZag lags by about 2 bars on average (depending on the candles forming)
The ZigZag pattern can be used to draw trendlines and S/R lines
It can also be used for "wave counting" in a way that reduces interpretation.
If you find other uses, please leave your ideas in the comments!
Shoutout to Everget for the awesome Jurik code!!

Simple LinesIntroduction
Making lines is great in technical analysis since it can highlights principal movements and make the analysis of the price easier when using certain methodologies (Elliott Waves, patterns).
However most of the indicators making lines (Zig-Zag, simple linear regression) are non causal (repaint), this is the challenge i tried to overcome, making an indicator capable of making lines in a smart way (able to follow price without loosing a linear approach) and with the least lag possible, i inspired myself from the behaviour of the renko when using a small brick size. This indicator does not repaint .
The code is short and i hope, understandable for all of you, making lines is not a difficult task and its important to know that when a problem appear complex it does not mean that the code used to solve this problem must be complex. Lets see the indicator in details.
The indicator
The indicator have 4 parameters, the length parameter who control the length of lines, the emphasis parameter who control the stability and also the ability to make lines closer to the price (thus minimizing the sum of squares) , the mult parameter which is similar to emphasis and a point option that we will discuss later.
When emphasis and mult are both equal to 1 the indicator will sometimes draw a perfect line, however this line will try to follow the price and thus can create a noisy result.
This is where emphasis and mult will correct this behaviour. The emphasis parameter give a more periodic look as well as some control to the lines but can also destroy them.
This should not happen with mult , this parameter also give more predictability to the lines. Overall it correct the drawbacks of the parameters combinations mentioned earlier.
Its also possible to mix both the emphasis and mult parameter, but take into account that when both are equals the result consist of less reactive lengthy lines with low accuracy. Its better to only use one of them and let the other stay to 1.
Point Option
The indicator can sometimes have a weird look, appearing almost flat or just dont appearing at all. When such thing happen use the point option.
XPDUSD without point option.
with point option :
Time Frame Problem and Its Fix
When using higher time-frames the result of the indicator can appear different, in general the higher the time frame the lengthier are the lines. In order to fix this you can use decimals in the length parameter
length and mult both equal to 5.5, emphasis cant use decimals.
Conclusion
I have highlighted a simple way to make use of the small renko box size method in order to return reactive lines without making the indicator repaint. However Its ability to be close to the price as well as being always super reactive is not a guarantee.
For any suggestion/help feel free to pm me, i would be happy to help you :)
Divergences for many indicators v2.0A gift from me to all.
This script is developed to find Divergences for many indicators. it analyses divergences and then draws line on the graph. red for negatif, lime for positive divergences.
Currently script checks divergence for RSI, MACD, MACD Histogram, Stochastic, CCI, Momentum, OBV, Diosc, VWMACD and CMF indicators. You can use some or all of these indicators to check divergences as you wish by choosing them on the menu. Also you can add/remove many other indicators to the script to check if there is divergence.
The script first calculates tops/bottoms by using higher time frame zig zag and then finds divergences.
Higher Time Frames are
if currend period 1 min => HTF = 5 mins
if currend period 3 mins => HTF = 15 mins
if currend period 5 mins => HTF = 15 mins
if currend period 15 mins => HTF = 1 hour
if currend period 30 mins => HTF = 1 hour
if currend period 45 mins => HTF = 1 hour
if currend period 1 hour => HTF = 4 hours
if currend period 2 hours => HTF = 4 hours
if currend period 3 hours => HTF = 4 hours
if currend period 4 hours => HTF = 1 day
if currend period 1 day => HTF = 1 week
if currend period 1 week => HTF = 1 week
future plan : script finds regular divergences, soon I will add hidden divergences and also I plan to add alert ;)
Fractal FramerThis indicator constructs dynamic high/low price range levels, based on 3 point fractals. Trend lines are drawn (zigzag style) at fractal points when trend direction is clearly established.
This is a lagging indicator: fractals lag by one bar and trend lines can lag by many bars. However, its strength lays in objectively defining historic price action: e.g. support/resistance levels and waves within a trend.
See the comments at the beginning of the script for a complete description.
