TrendLine ChannelsAbstract
This script provides a set of Trendline Channels which can be tighter than Donchian Channels.
This script computes the most suitable active upper and lower trendlines and updates them as soon as possible.
We can use it for breakout signals earlier than Donchian Channels.
Introduction
Channels are tools which can mark area of values of ranging markets.
Once the price leaves the original region, range traders may start admitting they are wrong and trigger trend.
Donchian Channels (misheard as Dungeon Channels) use the highest and the lowest price to define area of values.
When the price breakouts, it just like it got released from a dungeon.
However, waiting for the price making even higher or lower may be too late and risk reward ratio may be lower.
Trendlines can make the channels tighter and we can find earlier breakout signals.
Computing Trendline Channels
(1) Find the most active trendlines
In this script, a valid trendline connects two high values or two low values.
A high value means the highest value in a trading day.
A low value means the lowest value in a trading day.
In this script, every trendline does not crossover any bar but can exactly touch them.
The most flat trendline is taken. (one for upper and one for lower)
(2) Continue to use or Change a trendline
If there is a tighter trendline available, this script changes to use it.
If the previous active trendline is broken, this script re-computes the trendline available.
When this case happens, this script display with an another color.
Otherwise, this script continues using the previous trendline.
(3) Middle line
The middle line indicates the middle value between the upper and the lower.
Parameters
Length : how many days are used for computation. The default value is 16 just because 16=4*4, using binary characteristic.
x_go_on : If the previous trendline is not breakout and there are no tighter trendlines available, we continue use it.
Color Options
(1) Upper trendline (no update or tighter)
(2) Upper trendline (changed due to breakout)
(3) Middle line
(4) Lower trendline (no update or tighter)
(5) Lower trendline (changed due to breakout)
Conclusion
Trendline Channels can be tighter than Donchian Channels and evaluate earlier breakout signals.
Comparing to known auto trendline scripts, Trendline Channels is continuous.
Once a trendline is broken, Trendline Channels can instantly point out the next available one.
If you think the price movement is boring or you cannot have good risk reward ratio, you can go to an another timeframe.

How to trade with Donchian Channels
How to trade with Trendlines
Canali Donchian (DC)
SALEH MACD Donchian + EMA & MACD + ADXI gathered all the signals coming from the MACD & Donchian channels indicators and filtered them with EMA 200 or ADX > 25 indicators (which both of them show the trend),
and put them on the chart to show me the buy and sell signals;
the signals rules are as following:
BUY:
when we have an uptrend ( the price is above the EMA 200 or ADX > 25 ) & the macd line cross up the signal line while they are both under the 0 level of histogram it generates buy signals.
SELL:
when we have a downtrend ( the price is below the EMA 200 or ADX > 25) & the macd line cross below the signal line while they are both above the 0 level of histogram it generates sell signals.
Donchian channel works as a confirmation for the macd signal.
this signals work best at London session, you can also filter them by chandelier exit indicator.
BuyHigh-SellLow StrategyYeah. You read it right. It's not a mistake. It is buy high and sell low strategy.
Main entry condition is to buy when price hits 40 day Donchian channel top. This is combined with my other regular filters which are aligned moving average and new high/low filter and yearly high/low filter.
Exit condition can be based on two things:
Donchian channel : Set appropriate DonchianExitLength. Lower line of donchian channel acts as trailing stop.
ATR Based trailing stop : Select appropriate ATR multiplier and length.
What a surprise!! You can buy high, sell low and still make money.
Step RiderRelease Note:
Idea of this script is to ride on the trend. Multiple dynamic support and resistance are identified and those levels are used
Step Lines:
There are 3 different periods by default are used to define 3 different step lines. On any trend, either of these 3 steps shall play major role
Color Strength:
Change in Red & Green color and its thickness changed based on how strong the up or down trend is.

SALEH All in One Strategythis script is based on MACD strategy
for MACD:
when we have an uptrend ( the price is above the EMA 200) & the macd line cross up the signal line while they are both under the 0 level of histogram it generates buy signals.
when we have a downtrend ( the price is below the EMA 200) & the macd line cross below the signal line while they are both above the 0 level of histogram it generates sell signals.
donchian channel works as a confirmation for the macd signal.
this strategy works best at London session.

Donchian BlasterRelease Note:
Keeping in mind of getting full potential of Donchian Channels, As part of this script, Linear Regression is used as primary source to identify trend and execute the trades.
Hull Moving Average given as alternative option in place of Linear regression.
Linear Regression:
Linear regression used to identify trend, trade setup, and stop. Based on this, Color fillings on Donchian channels is updated. That will give clear idea of strength or weakness in any trading instruments.
HMA:
HMA used as alternative to identify trend, trade setup, and stop. Based on this, Color fillings on Donchian channels is updated. That will give clear idea of strength or weakness in any trading instruments.
Donchian Channels:
As it is one of the oldest trend riding system, combined here with differentiation in color will help to go with the trend.
Inputs:
Input periods can be changed by users/traders as per their understanding and observations.

2HLA very simple, almost naive strategy, in which you buy on the lowest of the two previous candles and sell at the highest of the two previous candles. You can configure these highest and lowest lenght, in some assets two is too small of a number to make profit. You can also configure to exit the position after X, and I found that 7 (which is a week of working days) is a good number for that.
This is strategy is intended to be used as a swing trade. Your capital needs to be high enough so that it can pay the operaitonal costs, and reach it's target with a reasonable profit.
Since this is a volatility based strategy, assets that are more liquid won't work properly.

Donchian Channels Strategy - Long Term TrendFor Educational Purposes. Results can differ on different markets and can fail at any time. Profit is not guaranteed.
This only works in a few markets and in certain situations. Changing the settings can give better or worse results for other markets. This is a longer term trend following strategy that uses Donchian Channels for trend following and uses the upper and lower bands to find price breakouts to enter the market and then uses the middle band as a trailing stop to exit. DCs are known as the original trend following strategy made by Richard Donchian.
Usually the middle band uses the same length of the upper and lower bands in its calculation but I included the default option of using a middle band that is double the length of the other bands, but also an option to use the regular input length that most Donchian strategies use if needed. If long term trends are somehow found, this longer middle band lets the profits run longer and lets you see where the long trends were at if the market had any. The double lengthed middle band looks surprisingly very similar to a 3x ATR trailing stop, which is the recommended setting Wilder suggested for trend following. If a good ATR stop or other trailing stop can't be found, this longer middle band can act as a substitute for it.
For some reason I can't seem to find anything related to Donchian strategies on here despite the popularity and simplicity of it, not even a single working one to my liking, so I made my own. It seems this strategy only works in trending markets. I intentionally handpicked a market that the backtest does well on to illustrate the potential it might have for other markets where trending following strategies might work on and what to expect the results in those might be. Trend following strategies are said to have high profits but at the same time lower accuracy due to the failure rate of being able to catch the right trend. If you all got any suggestions or feedback please let me.
Donchian Channels with offset includedThere does not seem to be an offset for most Donchian Channel scripts out there. Many trading books have an offset of 1 but most Donchian Channels out there do not for some reason. I included one in case there is a need for it.
Lagged Donchian Channel + EMAThis strategy is based on a lagged 24 periods Donchian Channel and a 200 periods EMA .
The enter positions are calculated this way :
Bull entry
1. we wait for the close of a candle below the channel and it must be below the 200 EMA
2. the following candle must be a green one and close in the lagged channel
3. we put a long order at the close of the second candle, a stop loss at the low of last 3 candles and a x3 take profit
Bear entry
1. we wait for the close of a candle above the channel and it must be above the 200 EMA
2. the following candle must be a red one and close in the lagged channel
3. we put a short order at the close of the second candle, a stop loss at the high of last 3 candles and a x3 take profit
For both long or short positions :
If the order is not filled, it's cancelled if the price reach 50% of the TP or if the price reach the stop loss level
The position is closed if a new bear/bull condition appears in the other side of the position (if a bear appears when you're long and inversement)
Features :
Position calculator's included with leverage option
Labels of position can be plotted or not
Bull/Bear channels can be plotted with red and green filled
All parameters can be changed for backtesting
Better results have been got with defaults parameters on LTCUSDTPERP in H1 timeframe => profit factor of 2.84 with almost 100 positions.
Hope this strategy will be useful and it would be cool if I could get feedback, comments or better combinations of parameters !!
Don't hesitate to like and leave a comment ;)

Modified Donchian ChannelRelease Note:
This indicator setup highly inspired by Donchian Channel and Hull Moving Average. Big thanks to both Richard Donchian and Alan Hull.
Back test and live test it and come to conclusion of how to use this indicator for live trading.
200 HMA:
200 Hull Moving Average plays major role in deciding the right trades using Donchian Channel. As part of this setup,
If price is below 200 HMA, then the Donchian Channel is highlighted in Red color
If price is above 200 HMA, then the Donchian Channel is highlighted in Green color
Donchian Channel:
Default 20 period is used for the Donchian channel. However, the color highlight as per 200 HMA position. Also, the middle basis color changes to Green and Red based on candle close of above or below.
Additionally, 5 period Donchian basis is used as tight stop loss. This can be used wisely or optionally based on trade decisions

VPCI MA cross [LM]Hello guys,
I would like to introduce you a script that combines two indicators: VPCI( volume price confirmation indicator) and donchian MAs
VPCI:
Fundamentally, the VPCI reveals the proportional imbalances between price trends and volume-adjusted price
trends. An uptrend with increasing volume is a market characterized by greed supported by the fuel needed to
grow. An uptrend without volume is complacent and reveals greed deprived of the fuel needed to sustain itself.
Investors without the influx of other investors ( volume ) will eventually lose interest and the uptrend should
eventually breakdown.
A falling price trend reveals a market driven by fear. A falling price trend without volume reveals apathy, fear
without increasing energy. Unlike greed, fear is self-sustaining, and may endure for long time periods without
increasing fuel or energy. Adding energy to fear can be likened to adding fuel to a fire and is generally bearish
until the VPCI reverses. In such cases, weak-minded investor's, overcome by fear, are becoming irrationally
fearful until the selling climax reaches a state of maximum homogeneity. At this point, ownership held by weak
investor’s has been purged, producing a type of heat death capitulation. These occurrences may be visualized by
the VPCI falling below the lower standard deviation of a Bollinger Band of the VPCI, and then rising above the
lower band, and forming a 'V' bottom.
I have used MA's on top of VPCI and looking for crosses. Percatage that is shown in label is calculation of difference between previous cross and current close price. So you know if you would be flipping what % you would gain or loose, all is rounded with precission of two
DONCHIAN
I took donchain calculation from ichimoku to calculate conversion line and base line(both are giving me information about whether it's trending or not and distance from the mean)
There are various sections in setting:
VPCI - setting of MA lengths(for smaller timeframes I recommend using bigger MA length)
DONCHAIN - setting length for conversion and base line
Any suggestions are welcome
Double Donchian, Double Keltner, no-overlayThis is rather an educational script on how you can put multiple channels on the chart in a relatively non-confusing manner. Because it can be done doesn't mean you should do it (especially as a beginner). However, you might want to use maybe two.
Normally, TradingView would put them all over each other causing chart to lose readability. By a few clever conditions, higher timeframe KC does draw on the chart only if it is outside lower timeframe KC. Lower timeframe Donchian is 99,5% outside both Keltner Channels, and it will not show if it overlaps at any point. Higher TF Donchian ale two lines but no background.
Keltner channel 1 uses original settings
Keltner channel 2 uses TradingView default settings
Donchian 1 uses TradingView default
Donchian 2 uses 60 periods used by Turtles if I remember it correct
Have a great trade!
Different Donchian PeriodsHi!
This is a very simple script that I couldn't find on TradingView yet. Look at this indicator how you want (band, cloud, ma's) and create your own settings, I did not test it.
Normally, Donchian average calculates the average(middle) of the highest point of a given period and the lowest point of that same period.
Here I use two separate periods, one for highest, a different one for lowest. That's it :)
Let me know if it's useful to you, I appreciate your comments.
GM All-purposeThis script plots multiple EMA's also it shows you when a particular EMA crosses up or below another EMA. You can customize the EMA's based on your setups or preferences.
This script basically will help you easily identify when a particular EMA has crossed over or crossed under another EMA at one glance.
Particularly useful when there is a lot of entanglement of the EMA's
There is also dual Bollinger Bands & Donchian Channels that are available to check the volatility of that particular scrip, which will help you stay in the trade or exit based on your criteria.
Weeknights Donchian CloudDonchian Channel Trading system visualised as a cloud.
Regular/Quick inputs;
Length: 20
Entry Length: 20
Stop Length: 10
Alternate/Slower Inputs;
Length: 55
Entry Length: 55
Stop Length: 20
For a more in-depth review, look up "Turtle Trading" rules
The simplest way to use the cloud;
-When the cloud flips from above to below (support), close any shorts and open a long
-When the cloud flips from below to above (resistance), close any longs and open a short
-Cloud is flipped based on a breakout on the high / low
-Most effectively used on the daily, but can be used on any time frame
-For traditional markets, an input of 20 is most commonly used
-For 24/7 markets, an input of 28 is most commonly used
-Find an input that makes the most sense to you!
I appreciate any feedback, feel free to message me on twitter / comment!

Donchian Channels Modified This indicator gives a Donchain Channel with different upper and lower limits, Use wisely.
Channel Break [for free bot]I present to you a script for testing the channel breakout strategy for the Bitmex exchange.
Cryptocurrency itself is a trending tool, which is why breakout strategies generate the largest profits, and the channel breakout strategy is one of the most effective trend strategies.
The optimization result shows the result of trading on a volume of 20% of the deposit. But since Bitmex trades in futures contracts, you can use 50%, 100% and even much more, depending on your attitude to risk.
At the time of publication on the Bitmex exchange there are 12 different contracts, i.e. You can diversify your trading well (by pre-optimizing the settings for each contract).
In the script, you can set up many trading options - timeframe, periods for buying and selling, method of exiting a trade, stop loss, take profit, risk management, etc.
Thus, you create a strategy "for yourself".
Представляю Вам скрипт для тестирования стратегии пробоя канала для биржи Битмекс.
Криптовалюта, сама по себе является трендовым инструментом, именно поэтому, пробойные стратегии генерируют самую большую прибыль, а стратегия пробоя канала – является одной из самых эффективных трендовых стратегий.
На результате оптимизации показан результат торговли на объеме в 20% от депозита. Но так как на Битмекс торговля идет фьючерсными контрактами, Вы можете использовать 50%, 100% и даже намного больше, в зависимости от Вашего отношения к риску.
На момент публикации на бирже Битмекс есть 12 разных контрактов, т.е. Вы можете хороши диверсифицировать свою торговлю (предварительно оптимизируя настройки по каждый контракт).
В скрипте Вы можете настроить множество вариантов торговли - таймфрейм, периоды для покупки и продажи, метод выхода из сделки, стоп-лосс, тейк-профит, рискменеджмент и т.п.
Таким образом Вы создаете стратегию "под себя".
Turtle Donchian ChannelDonchian channel with Turtle trading style: buy long when price is higher than high 20 candles (green up arrow), and sell short when price is lower than low 10 candles (red down arrow).
[RS]Standardized Trend Mapnothing excessively new here..
a map of standardized trend over multiple lengths, extra parameter for smoothing the input source(close) will remove noise.
Donchian Strat EXMOThis is simple test of Turtle Trading strategy by Richard Dennis. The script meant to place orders on Donchian Channel borders. It's best to test and use on mid-term charts like 1H and more.
I've chosen Kraken XBT/USDT chart because this market opened in december 2019. The main problem of crypto trading strategy testing is the bullish market of 2017 year. That enormous growth gives unrealisting expectations to all trend-following strategies tested.
Donchian Trend RibbonHello Traders,
I think you all know Donchian Channels. so I am not going to write about it.
With this indicator I tried to create Donchian Trend Ribbon by using Donchian Channels.
How it works ?
- it calculates main trend direction by using the length that is user-defined. so you can change it as you wish
- then it calculates trend direction for each 9 lower lengths. if you set the length = 20 then the lengths are 19, 18,...11
- and it checks if the trend directions that came from lower lengths is same or not with main trend direction.
- it changes the trend color of the ribbon.
-
Warning: Entry points may also represents trend reversal. So you should use stoploss line if you decide to take buy/sell positions.
P.S. I didn't backtest it, it's non-repainting, it should be used educational purposes only.
