Channel Based Zigzag [HeWhoMustNotBeNamed]🎲 Concept
Zigzag is built based on the price and number of offset bars. But, in this experiment, we build zigzag based on different bands such as Bollinger Band, Keltner Channel and Donchian Channel. The process is simple:
🎯 Derive bands based on input parameters
🎯 High of a bar is considered as pivot high only if the high price is above or equal to upper band.
🎯 Similarly low of a bar is considered as pivot low only if low price is below or equal to lower band.
🎯 Adding the pivot high/low follows same logic as that of regular zigzag where pivot high is always followed by pivot low and vice versa.
🎯 If the new pivot added is of same direction as that of last pivot, then both pivots are compared with each other and only the extreme one is kept. (Highest in case of pivot high and lowest in case of pivot low)
🎯 If a bar has both pivot high and pivot low - pivot with same direction as previous pivot is added to the list first before adding the pivot with opposite direction.
🎲 Use Cases
Can be used for pattern recognition algorithms instead of standard zigzag. This will help derive patterns which are relative to bands and channels.
Example: John Bollinger explains how to manually scan double tap using Bollinger Bands in this video: www.youtube.com This modified zigzag base can be used to achieve the same using algorithmic means.
🎲 Settings
Few simple configurations which will let you select the band properties. Notice that there is no zigzag length here. All the calculations depend on the bands.
With bands display, indicator looks something like this
Note that pivots do not always represent highest/lowest prices. They represent highest/lowest price relative to bands.
As mentioned many times, application of zigzag is not for buying at lower price and selling at higher price. It is mainly used for pattern recognition either manually or via algorithms. Lets build new Harmonic, Chart patterns, Trend Lines using the new zigzag?
Canali Donchian (DC)
DonchianFib[Akcay]How does it work?
- The indicator detects the highest and lowest price level in the last x periods every time prices advance by x periods.
- From these values, retracement (0.618, 0.786) and expansion levels (1.272, 1.618, 2, 2.618, 3.14, 3.618, 4.236) are obtained.
- Since the symmetrical counterpart of the retracement levels is used, there are two of each of the 0.618 and 0.786 lines, for a total of four.
How can it be used?
- It can be used for step buying.
- It can be used for step selling.
- Can be used to set a profit target.
- Can be used to set a stop target.
- This indicator can be used in the same way as Pivot levels can be used. You can think of this indicator like the Pivot Points Standard indicator, where you set the period more flexibly.
Which indicators can it be combined with?
- I don't think there are any limitations, but I think it is compatible with trend detection indicators, trend detection with DonchianFib, and stepped buy/sell with limit orders.
- If you want to enter a position with mismatch signals, you can wait for the DonchianFib levels to break.
- Its use is limited by your imagination :)
Where does the name come from?
- As the name suggests, Donchian Channels. I was inspired by Donchian Channels when developing the indicator. Donchian channels show the highs and lows of prices over the last x number of periods. DonchianFib does this once for every x periods and uses the fibonacci levels to create upper and intermediate levels.
Note : I don't know if such an indicator has been done before or not. If it has been done, I haven't seen it in tradingview.
Çalışma mantığı nedir ?
- Gösterge, fiyatlar her x periyot kadar ilerlediğinde son x periyot içerisindeki en yüksek ve en düşük fiyat seviyesini tespit eder.
- Bu değerler üzerinden geri çekilme (0.618, 0.786) ve genişleme seviyeleri (1.272, 1.618, 2, 2.618, 3.14, 3.618, 4.236) elde edilir.
- Geri çekilme seviyelerinin simetrik karşılığı kullanıldığından 0.618 ve 0.786 çizgilerinden her birinden iki adet olmak üzere toplamda dört adet bulunur.
Nasıl kullanılabilir ?
- Kademeli alım yapmak için kullanılabilir.
- Kademeli satım yapmak için kullanılabilir.
- Kâr hedefi belirlemek için kullanılabilir.
- Stop hedefi belirlemek için kullanılabilir.
- Pivot seviyelerinden nasıl faydalanılıyorsa bu göstergeden de aynı şekilde faydalanılabilir. Bu göstergeyi, periyodunu kendinizin daha esnek bir şekilde belirlediğiniz Pivot Noktalar Standartı göstergesi gibi düşünebilirsiniz.
Hangi göstergelerle kombine edilebilir ?
- Bunun için herhangi sınırlama yapmak doğru değil ancak trend tespit etmeye çalışan göstergelerle uyumlu olduğunu düşünüyorum. Bu göstergeler ile trend tespiti yapıp DonchianFib ile alım/satım yerleri belirlenebilir ve limit emirleri ile kademeli alım/satım yapılabilir.
- Uyuşmazlık sinyalleri ile pozisyona girilmek isteniliyorsa DonchianFib seviyelerinin kırılması beklenebilir.
- Kullanımı sizin hayal gücünüz ile sınırlıdır :)
Adı nereden geliyor ?
- Adından da anlaşılacağı üzere Donchian Kanallarından. Göstergeyi geliştirirken Donchian Kanallarından ilham aldım. Donchian kanalları fiyatların son x periyot içerisindeki en yüksek ve en düşük seviyelerini grafikte gösteriyor. DonchianFib ise bunu her x periyot için bir defa yapıp, fibonacci seviyelerini de kullanarak üst ve ara seviyeler oluşturuyor.
Not : Daha önce böyle bir göstergenin yapılıp yapılmadığını bilmiyorum. Yapıldı ise ben tradingview'da görmedim.

Advanced Donchian Channels
Advanced Donchian Channels displays future donchian channel values based on the current information on the chart.
It displays a normal donchian channel at the specified user length with the future values extending from the current bar.
Depending on the direction of price movement, these values do not repaint. It is known when it does and does not repaint, and the actions are normal. See below for more information.
In a down trend, when the price is making new lows, the future "channel low" value will update every time the low is broken. The mean will also update, since the mean is the average of the channel high and channel low.
In a downtrend, the "channel high" value is concrete . It will not update until the high is broken.
Reverse these examples for uptrends.
Q;
How does it know the future values?
A:
Consider This: If we are below the current highest high, going down (aka: not setting new highs), the donchian channel "high" value will create a flat top, the flat top will start to decrease after we go further than our specified length. This is because the highest high within our specified length is no longer what it was previously. This action of time decay is a consistent movement of donchian channels . Because of this I am able to calculate these values before the current bar actually reaches them.
The indicator calculates the current length donchian channel at the current bar and then for every future bar up to your length specified it subtracts 1 from your length, calculates and displays the values accordingly.
The farthest future value is 1 length and the current bar is your specified length.
VALUES WILL ONLY BE UPDATED WHEN THE CHANNEL HIGH OR LOW IS BROKEN.
If price stays within the channel, all the future channel values will become solidified when the time reaches them.
This is not a gimmick, This data is accurate and can be used to help see future price trends
This chart should assist in visualizing what data you are seeing in this indicator.
Enjoy!
Trend Breakout high/low #1What is the Trend Breakout high/low #1?
This script uses the high/low of each fixed time period as a conditional judgment, and when the high/low is broken as a buy/sell signal, trying to capture a trend.
How to use this script?
Start date and Stop date: You can choose the date of the test.
Trading cycle: Selected time period is used as the basis for determining the high/low and is limited to one trade only.
Stop range: This value will calculate the stop loss range. Set 50-100 that is better
Fixed mode: Fixed of lots per transaction.
---Additional Functions---
Reversal mode: Reversing the buy and sell signals, may be useful in certain situations.
Wighted mode: Increased profitability under certain conditions
When win & When lose:Judgment when there is an ongoing loss/profit as a condition, may be useful in certain situations.
Use closing price: Use the closing price breakout high/low as a conditional judgment, but this function sometimes fails.
Notes:
Trading cycle and your chart time period can't be set too close,that will result repainting.
Stop range can't be set too small,that will result repainting either.
Donchian Channels+Standard Donchian Channels, this includes a Trend EMA which can be configured and the channels will use to give buy and sell signals. The channels are also colored in such a way to indicate a trend reversals. My favorite part that sets this apart from others is, if using the bClose option (which I recommend you do) the trend will not reverse until there is a close above/below the previous channel high/low. i.e. a reversal into an uptrend requires the current bar to close above the previous upper channel rather than just a new high.
The coloring of the current trend allows for a quick read of current market conditions and I use this on any timeframe across all forms of charts (forex stock, futures , crypto, etc). When taking one of the signals I use the opposite channel as the stop loss (when buying use bottom, and selling use top channel)
Update 1:
- Added my name to the code
- Updated the picture to show off the indicator better
- Raised the brightness of the fill color a bit, looks nicer I think
As a warning: I have obviously hand picked this picture to really show off this indicator's power to work in a trending market. Donchian Channels are a trending indicator and work best in trending markets with decent pull backs. If there are multiple signals going in each direction, it is a choppy market and you should stay out until it starts trending again. I generally use a 1:1.5 risk to reward ratio but sometimes will stretch it to 1:2 if it is a nice trade and I feel the market is in my favor as you can see from the trades placed in the picture (and I use that method for any commodity / chart and timeframe). I use the close of the white candle and then (since they are trades going short) I use the upper Donchian Channel as my stop loss.
I personally like to have the lines and labels turned off and enable all other options. Labels are just there to really stand out so you don't miss the white candle indication for a trade. OH! Also, I've had comments from friends that the white candles are hard to see, I turn off my candle borders in settings; makes it super easy to see them then. I turn lines off as the fill does the job well enough and it seems cleaner in my eyes.
If you'd like to see this picture on your chart, it is Micro E-Mini S&P 500 Futures from July 10, 2022 @ 18:00 on the 1-min chart.
just now
Update 2:
- Added day trading time highlights
- Added ranging market indicator (This I'm still working on so use at your own discretion, it's intended purpose is to tell when the Donchian Channels are not going to give great signals and to use a ranging indicator instead)
- Added multi-timeframe trend screener (handy if you want to quickly see the trend direction (based on the Trend EMA you set) of several time frames without having to change charts). It will draw in the bottom right of the chart.

Jurik Filtered, Composite Fractal Behavior (CFB) Channels [Loxx]Double Jurik-Filtered Composite Fractal Behavior (CFB) Channels is a channel indicator that acts as both a baseline, similar to Donchian, and as support and resistance levels. This indicator is price time adaptive meaning it flexes to price volatility waves. The indicators adaptive nature is calculated using the Composite Fractal Behavior (CFB) algorithm. The result of this adaptive calculation is then smoothed using Jurik Filtering, and then it's normalized to conform to a range of values. This helps better identify trends.
What is Composite Fractal Behavior (CFB)?
All around you mechanisms adjust themselves to their environment. From simple thermostats that react to air temperature to computer chips in modern cars that respond to changes in engine temperature, r.p.m.'s, torque, and throttle position. It was only a matter of time before fast desktop computers applied the mathematics of self-adjustment to systems that trade the financial markets.
Unlike basic systems with fixed formulas, an adaptive system adjusts its own equations. For example, start with a basic channel breakout system that uses the highest closing price of the last N bars as a threshold for detecting breakouts on the up side. An adaptive and improved version of this system would adjust N according to market conditions, such as momentum, price volatility or acceleration.
Since many systems are based directly or indirectly on cycles, another useful measure of market condition is the periodic length of a price chart's dominant cycle, (DC), that cycle with the greatest influence on price action.
The utility of this new DC measure was noted by author Murray Ruggiero in the January '96 issue of Futures Magazine. In it. Mr. Ruggiero used it to adaptive adjust the value of N in a channel breakout system. He then simulated trading 15 years of D-Mark futures in order to compare its performance to a similar system that had a fixed optimal value of N. The adaptive version produced 20% more profit!
This DC index utilized the popular MESA algorithm (a formulation by John Ehlers adapted from Burg's maximum entropy algorithm, MEM). Unfortunately, the DC approach is problematic when the market has no real dominant cycle momentum, because the mathematics will produce a value whether or not one actually exists! Therefore, we developed a proprietary indicator that does not presuppose the presence of market cycles. It's called CFB (Composite Fractal Behavior) and it works well whether or not the market is cyclic.
CFB examines price action for a particular fractal pattern, categorizes them by size, and then outputs a composite fractal size index. This index is smooth, timely and accurate
Essentially, CFB reveals the length of the market's trending action time frame. Long trending activity produces a large CFB index and short choppy action produces a small index value. Investors have found many applications for CFB which involve scaling other existing technical indicators adaptively, on a bar-to-bar basis.
What is Jurik Volty used in the Juirk Filter?
One of the lesser known qualities of Juirk smoothing is that the Jurik smoothing process is adaptive. "Jurik Volty" (a sort of market volatility ) is what makes Jurik smoothing adaptive. The Jurik Volty calculation can be used as both a standalone indicator and to smooth other indicators that you wish to make adaptive.
What is the Jurik Moving Average?
Have you noticed how moving averages add some lag (delay) to your signals? ... especially when price gaps up or down in a big move, and you are waiting for your moving average to catch up? Wait no more! JMA eliminates this problem forever and gives you the best of both worlds: low lag and smooth lines.
Ideally, you would like a filtered signal to be both smooth and lag-free. Lag causes delays in your trades, and increasing lag in your indicators typically result in lower profits. In other words, late comers get what's left on the table after the feast has already begun.

👉🏻 Strategy by Mahesh Kaushik -
1️⃣ Track the 20-Day Low of the instrument.
2️⃣ Create a GTT order which is 5% above 20 DL.
3️⃣ If the share makes a new 20 DL before getting purchased, then update your GTT order to be 5% above the new 20 DL.
4️⃣ Next GTT will be started when the average price falls by 10%. (GTT will be created as 5% above the last 20 DL or Buy on 10%, 20%, 30% fall in average price.)
5️⃣ Sell target is 5% of the average price. Sell all units or Set sell target on buy price.
6️⃣ No stop loss is needed as we buy when the stock falls.
👉🏻 Note:-
Trade in fundamentally good stocks & strong stocks those are outperforming index because we do not take stop loss in this strategy.

donchian diff [LM]Hello traders,
I would like to present you Donchian diff script. The idea behind this script is that as in Ichimoku I consider base line as equilibrium so I calculate percentages between base line and current price and calculate percentage between base line and conversion line and use them as a filter. For signals I used also that candle has to be highest or lowest in x(configurable) consecutive candles.
It has following setting:
Base line setting
Conversion line setting
buy/sell signal setting - here you can setup buy/sell condition
filter setting - here you can set up percentages of the distances
Hope you will enjoy it,

Straight Trend V1Hello everyone,
We are proud to present you our "Straight Trend" Strategy.
Strategy is use a specified timeline's opening price as reference and draw a line between the current price and trend line.
Trend line is smoothed with last X times of highest and lowest values ( Donchian Methodology) in order to create less noise and fake alerts , therefore creates a channel of current prices time based opening price.
The timeline can be adjusted according to your specifications in the settings.
------
Why opening price ?
We are traders ,no matter what we do ,we always make a benchmark at the end of a day , week or at the end of a specified time line.
Example :
X commodity's price increased %15 in last days or Y commodity's price dropped %30 in last 2 weeks etc. etc.
Thats why the opening price have a hidden and much more important role in our trading sessions.
------
After the channel is created we remove the unnecessary lines from our output by filtering the direction with closing price.
IF the closing price is higher than Chanel reference price and direction goes upward the script gives you a BUY signal.
The same methodology is applied for SELL operations.
When to Take Profit?
We put a setting for profit percentage in scripts setting you can adjust the ratio as your choices.
When to Stop Loss or change direction of the trade?
The Straight Trends previously mentioned channel's inverse line was set as STOP LOSS and direction changer in the strategy with "STR-X" Marker.
Note : Strategy is much more effective with heikin-ashi bars due methodology of heikin ashi and with this bars it creates less signals with more accuracy, use at your own discretion.
Please don't hesitate to write us if you need support or assistance, we also appreciate your feedbacks.
Please be advised that this strategy is published with Educational Purposes and it is not a investment advice.
Thank you in advance.
Donchian Channels (Close)This indicator shows Donchian Channels based on close prices only. Additionally, a box with the bands and the center line for the last bar can be shown.
The center line, the bands and the box can be hidden independently.
Four periods are being shown at the moment, but the indicator is easily extensible with copy and paste.
Donchian Channel Strategy IdeaThis strategy idea is a variation of the "Donchian Channel" trading strategy. It is built with a highest-high band, a lowest-low band, and a baseline which is average the highest-high and the lowest-low bands. This strategy is very useful in trending instruments on 1W and 1D timeframes. This is the implementation used in the QuantCT app.
You can set the operation mode to be Long/Short or long-only.
You also can set a fixed stop-loss or ignore it so that the strategy acts solely based on entry and exit signals.
Trade Idea
When the close price breaks up the previous highest-high, it is a long signal, the market is considered rising (bullish), and the plotted indicator becomes green. Long positions are held until the close price crosses under the baseline.
When the close price breaks down the previous lowest-low, it is a short signal, the market is considered falling (bearish), and the plotted indicator becomes red. Short positions are held until the close price crosses above the baseline.
Otherwise, if we have no position in the market, the market is considered ranging, and the plotted indicator becomes orange.
Entry/Exit rules
Enter LONG if the close price breaks up the previous highest-high (i.e. when the plotted indicator becomes green).
Exit LONG if the close price crosses under the baseline (i.e. when the plotted indicator becomes orange).
Enter SHORT if the close price breaks down the previous lowest-low (i.e. when the plotted indicator becomes red).
Exit SHORT if the close price crosses above the baseline (i.e. when the plotted indicator becomes orange).
CAUTION
It's just a bare trading idea - a profitable one. However, you can enhance this idea and turn it into a full trading strategy with enhanced risk/money management and optimizing it, and you ABSOLUTELY should do this!
DON'T insist on using Long/Short mode on all instruments! This strategy performs much better in Long-Only mode on many (NOT All) trending instruments (Like BTC, ETH, etc.).

Classic Long Term Trend Following SystemThis is a classic long term trend following system.
The breakout period is 50 days instead of 20 and the moving average crossover are 40 and 120.
The moving averages are also exponential instead of simple.
The stoploss is 4 ATRs away from the price.
Recommendations:
Donchian Channels settings > 50 days
Moving Averages > 40 and 120, 80 and 140
Important to note:
My first strategy, DC Breakout System | This is simplicity at its finest, is best used on the crypto market and this one for stocks, commodities, currencies, etc. Those markets tend to trend a lot longer than crypto do.
Donchian SARCombination of Donchian channels and sar. The donchian channels provides simple and easy data of support and resistances and SAR tells the price trend
DC Breakout Strategy | This is simplicity at its finest.As the title already describes: this is a Donchian breakout strategy. This strategy, as of now, only goes long. It goes long when the price close makes a new high and the 8 day moving average is above the 32 day moving average. The strategy exits the trade if the price breaks the atr trailing stop of * 3 or the 8 day moving average crosses below the 32 day moving average.
This is simplicity at its finest.
Bagheri IG Ether v2In this version, the winning ratio has been decreased, but the Risk to Reward Ratio (RRR) has been set to be better than the previous version.
This is a technical trading strategy for Ethereum ( BINANCE:ETHUSDT ). We built and developed it on MetaEditor and optimized it with MetaTrader optimizer.
The main indicators are Donchian Channel, Oscillator of ROC , Bears Power, Balance of Power , and Simple Moving Average ( SMA ). Default values in the input panel are the best combination of these indicators, but you can change any of them and try it for better results.
Please notice that this strategy has been optimized on the 1-minute chart of Ethereum .
For each position, you can see the Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) levels. Also, you can find the values of mentioned TP and SL in points from the input panel of the script.
Attention: The price of Ethereum has 2 decimal places.
Therefore, 3000 points for TP means 30 USDT for trading 1 BINANCE:ETHUSDT .
