Z-HistogramIt is possible to approximate the underlying distribution of a random variable by using what is called an "Histogram". In order to construct an histogram one must first split the data into several intervals (also called bins) often of the same size and count the number of values falling within each intervals, the histogram plot is then constructed with the X axis representing the measured variable and the Y axis representing the frequency.
The proposed script aim to estimate the underlying distribution of a rolling z-score by constructing its histogram, here the histogram consist of 13 bins of width 0.5 rolling standard deviations. The length setting define the rolling z-score period, the window setting define the number of past data to be counted, finally using the "Total" option (true by default) will count all the rolling z-scores values since the first bar, in order to use the window setting make sure to uncheck the "Total" option.
DISPLAY
In order to see the entirety of the histogram make sure to double click on the indicator window and to have all the lower panels (text notes, pine editor...etc) hidden, finally make sure to zoom-in in order to see the frequency numbers displayed.
Z-Histogram on BTCUSD 15 min TF, the blue bins represent intervals situated over 0 while red bins represent intervals situated under 0. Here σ represent the X-axis in standard deviations, the histogram start with a bin situated at σ = -3 which count the number of times the rolling z-score was within -3 and -2.5, the histogram end with the bin situated at σ = 3 which count the number of time the rolling z-score was within 3 and 3.5.
It is also possible to look at the shape of the histogram without having the indicator window at full size.
INTERPREATION
An histogram can give really interesting information such as overall trend direction and strength. The direction can be measured by looking at the skewness of the histogram, with a negative skewness (the peak of the histogram situated at the right from the center) representing down-trending variations and positive skewness (the peak of the histogram situated at the left from the center) representing up-trending variations, while a symmetrical histogram could represent a ranging market. The farther away the peak of the histogram is situated from the center, the stronger the trend.
Another interesting characteristic is the tailedness of the histogram, which can give information about the cleanliness of the trend, for example a positive skew and high tailedness would represent a clean up-trend, as it could suggest less variations contrary to the main trend.
An histogram applied to the rolling z-score can give various useful information. As a recall the rolling z-score of the price measure the distance between the closing price and its moving average in term of rolling standard deviations, for example if the rolling z-score is equal to 2 it means that the closing price is currently 2 rolling standard deviations over its moving average.
Lets for example analyze the histogram using INTC 15 min tf with a window of 456 bars and rolling z-score of length = 100 in order to review longer term variations.
We can see from the histogram that the uptrend visible on the chart is represented by the bins situated over 0 having an overall higher frequency than the bins under 0, we can see that the closing price tended to stay between 1 and 1.5 rolling standard deviations over its period 100 moving average. Here bins under 0 accounts for retracements in the trend.
IN SUMMARY
An histogram can give various information regarding the price evolution of a security, the proposed script aim to plot the histogram of a rolling z-score. Now this script might not be too useful but it was fun to make, also it does not mean that an histogram is not an useful tool in the context of trading, the only thing required is a god implementation of it (like volume profiles for example)
In this post we have also reviewed some important statistical concepts such as distributions, z-score, skewness and tailedness, each being extremely important in the quantitative trading field.

WMA + MACD strategy with trailing stopHi!
That's my first strategy. I already learn pine, so i will work on it more. Now i search how to make trailing stop working.
"WMA + MACD strategy with traiing stop" is very simple strategy which is designated for stocks market. It is created only to take long positions.
Buy signal is when WMA(120) is below price and macd(10,20,10) histogram is higher than 0.
Position should be automaticly closed when price hits stoploss level.
One transaction should be max 20% of our capital and stoploss is set 3% lower than last closing price.

Histogram Trends Strategy by SedkurThis gives to you buy-sell signal with MACD's histogram trends.
Use "Fast and Slow length" and "Trend of Histogram Number" inputs to take less or more signal.
"Trend of Histogram Number" : This means how many histogram bars the trend continues before trading.
Buying and Selling Smoothed with HistogramBuying and Selling Smoothed with Histogram
Smoothed version with version with a red line representing the selling pressure and a green line which represents the Buying pressure.
If the green line is above the red line it would mean that the Buying pressure is more and vice versa.
The difference between the two is plotted as a Histogram. This is a cumulative value of the buying and selling pressure and provides a easy visual presentation of the dominating pressure.
MACD Strategy by SedkurThis gives to you buy-sell signal with MACD histogram value.
Use "Fast and Slow length" and "Buy or Sell Histogram Value" inputs to take less or more signal.
MACD and RSI divergence by Rexio v2Hi everyone!
I wrote this indicator for intraday trading and it cannot be use only by itself you need to at least draw some S/R lines to make it useful. It is based at MACD histogram and gives signal when it sees divergence on MACD/RSI/MACD's Histogram (or all at once - settings) when macd's histogram switchs trend. Im using it to playing with a trend most of the time looking for hidden divergence at higher time frame and after that looking for regular divergence at lower time frame.
Im not a computer programist nor professional trader so it is only for educational purposes only.

It is based at MACD histogram and gives signal when it sees divergence on MACD's Histogram when macd's histogram switchs trend. Im using it to playing with a trend most of the time looking. It highlights candles which can give good singnals to play with a trend (its based on ema200 and RSI overbought and oversold zones).

MACD - Baby WhaleI spiced the standard MACD indicator up a bit to make it more visible.
When using the MACD:
1. Never go short when the MACD lines are in the negative.
2. Never go long when the MACD lines are in the positive.
3. Always wait for an uptick / downtick on the histogram before you start your trade.
The MACD Histogram can also show you Divergence.
When the price goes up but the Histogram can't make new highs, it might be a good time to think about shorting.
If you want access, just send a message please.
Much love from Baby Whale!!

VWMA CrossesThis is a simple tool that gives traders a simple visual representation of Volume-Weighted Moving Average ( VWMA ) crossovers that is pretty similar to the MACD . We don't typically trade solely based on the VWMA , but it is definitely one of our go-to tools when combining multiple indicators.
When trading with VWMA's, it is common to enter a position when the fast VWMA crosses over the slow VWMA . In other words, the fast VWMA was previously less than the slow VWMA and is now greater in value than the slow VWMA . Conversely, traders often exit their positions when the fast VWMA crosses under the slow VWMA .
This tool plots the absolute value of the difference between the fast and slow VWMA's as a histogram. When the difference between the fast and slow VWMA's is greater than zero (meaning fast > slow), then the bars are green. The bars then turn red when the fast VWMA is less than the slow VWMA . The blue circle-line is a Simple Moving Average of the difference between the two lines.
Here's a quick guide to interpreting the chart:
if (fast VWMA > slow VWMA ) and (difference < sma of differences)
then color = lime green
if (fast VWMA > slow VWMA ) and (difference > sma of differences)
then color = dark green
if (fast VWMA < slow VWMA ) and (difference < sma of differences)
then color = light red
if (fast VWMA < slow VWMA ) and (difference > sma of differences)
then color = dark red
~Happy Trading~
Combo Strategy 123 Reversal & (H-L)/C Histogram This is combo strategies for get
a cumulative signal. Result signal will return 1 if two strategies
is long, -1 if all strategies is short and 0 if signals of strategies is not equal.
First strategy
This System was created from the Book "How I Tripled My Money In The
Futures Market" by Ulf Jensen, Page 183. This is reverse type of strategies.
The strategy buys at market, if close price is higher than the previous close
during 2 days and the meaning of 9-days Stochastic Slow Oscillator is lower than 50.
The strategy sells at market, if close price is lower than the previous close price
during 2 days and the meaning of 9-days Stochastic Fast Oscillator is higher than 50.
Second strategy
This histogram displays (high-low)/close
Can be applied to any time frame.

This indicator was developed and described by Dr. Mel Widner (Stocks & Commodities V.15:7: Rainbow Charts).
Better MACD with clearer cross and histogram signalsSimple but much needed visual improvements to the default MACD script. First, every time the MACD and signal cross, a white cross is placed on he chart, which lets you quickly identify the crosses. Second, whenever the histogram goes from increasing to decreasing or from increasing to decreasing, a color change occurs. Colors can be customized under "Style" tab under settings.

MACD (4 Color, Color-Blind Friendly)Working MACD Histogram which colors bars based on the slope from the previous. The default colors will work for both Deuteranopia and Protonopia color-blind people but can be modified.
There is a bug with 'MACD 4C' by vkno422 + signal line - squattter and 'MACD for colour blind people' by cfhrtd in that it draws the MACD line itself as a histogram, rather than drawing an MACD histogram (which is the MACD line - signal line).
Bad indicators that this should replace:
