Stefan Krecher: Jeddingen DivergenceThe main idea is to identify a divergence between momentum and price movement. E.g. if the momentum is rising but price is going down - this is what we call a divergence. The divergence will be calculated by comparing the direction of the linear regression curve of the price with the linear regression curve of momentum.
A bearish divergence can be identified by a thick red line, a bullish divergence by a green line.
When there is a divergence, it is likeley that the current trend will change it's direction.
Looking at the chart, there are three divergences that need to get interpreted:
1) bearish divergence, RSI is overbought but MACD does not clearly indicate a trend change. Right after the divergence, price and momentum are going up. No clear signal for a sell trade
2) bearish divergence, RSI still overbought, MACD histogram peaked, MACD crossed the signal line, price and momentum are going down. Very clear constellation for a sell trade.
3) two bullish diverences, RSI is oversold, MACD crossover near the end of the second divergence, price and momentum started rising. Good constellation for a buy trade. Could act as exit signal for the beforementioned sell trade.

Indicatore Momentum (MOM)
HL BREAKOUTThe base of the indicator is the breakout of historic High and lows.
There are 3 basic configurations
1° The High length that measure the latest 10 bars and make the "higher high"
2° The Low length taht measure the latest 10 bars and make the "lower low"
3° The Breakout PIPs administrator that defines how much pips are needed from the latest higher high to be defined as a level breakout.
So the strategy is super easy. The indicators show you the 10...20.. or whatever you need old bars high and lows.
When a breakout of that levels occurs and the candle "close" above or below and the close are more than "X" amount of PIPs a marker show up. The marker are the signals of buy and sell
I test some configurations, and work in all timeframes but.
I suggest
10, 10, 0.0003 for timeframes from 1m to 15m
and 10, 10, 0.0005 for timeframes higher than 15m
Maybe you need to test other configurations for 4h 1 day, etc the basics are the same in all timeframes, the main difference is the amount of pips that will be considered as "breakout" the higher timeframe the higher amount you need to prevent false positives.
Last words: 0.000X are for the PIPs for currencies that have 4 or 5 decimals like euro and other, if you use in YEN change it to a configuration of 2 digits decimal. Just that.
Have "fun" !
Simple RSI-MA Algo Beats DOW By Huge Margin Over Past 100 Years!This simple RSI-MA long/short algorithm beats the Dow by a FREAKING HUGE margin over the past century (excluding dividends and trading costs).
The algorithm uses a fast SMA of the RSI as a buy/cover signal and a slow SMA of the RSI as a sell/short signal.
Backtest period = 09/17/1916 - 11/02/2015
Dow = 98 --> 17,830 = +18,094% = 5.38% CAGR
Algorithm = net profit + open P/L = +43,349% = 6.31% CAGR
Notice how the algorithm dodged both the 30s' Great Depression and the 2008 Crisis. Pretty cool huh? :)
ALGORITHM'S FORMULA (use weekly chart):
Buy/Cover = MA10(RSI10) cross> 50
Sell/Short = MA50(RSI10) cross< 50
STRATEGY TESTER'S SETTINGS:
- Initial cash = $10,000
- Pyramiding disabled
- Re-investment enabled (order size = 100% of equity )
- Trade re-calculations disabled

Zweig Market Breadth Thrust Indicator [LazyBear]The Breadth Thrust (BT) indicator is a market momentum indicator developed by Dr. Martin Zweig. According to Dr. Zweig a Breadth Thrust occurs when, during a 10-day period, the Breadth Thrust indicator rises from below 40 percent to above 61.5 percent.
A "Thrust" indicates that the stock market has rapidly changed from an oversold condition to one of strength, but has not yet become overbought. This is very rare and has happened only a few times. Dr. Zweig also points out that most bull markets begin with a Breadth Thrust.
All parameters are configurable. You can draw BT for NYSE, NASDAQ, AMEX or based on combined data (i.e., AMEX+NYSE+NASD). There is also a "CUSTOM" mode supported, so you can enter your own ADV/DEC symbols.

JMA RSX Clone [LazyBear]RSX is a "noise free" version of RSI, with no added lag. This is a port of a clone to Pine.
Use this indicator just like RSI. I have set the default length to 14, feel free to experiment. You can reduce length with out worrying about jaggedness.
Options page has all the configurable parameters. You can use the plot names to setup alerts.
I have couple of more indicators built using this, will post them later. Let me know what you think about this indicator.
RSX Clone compared to normal RSI:
Smoothness helps a lot in identifying the divergences correctly:

Momentum of Relative strength to Index Leaf_West styleMomentum of Relative Strength to index as used by Leaf_West. This is to be used with the companion Relative Strength to Index indicator Leaf_West Style. Make sure you use the same index for comparison. If you follow his methods be aware of the different moving averages for the different time periods. From Leaf_West: "on my weekly and monthly R/S charts, I include a 13 EMA of the R/S (brown dash line) and an 8 SMA of the 13 EMA (pink solid line). The indicator on the bottom of the weekly/monthly charts is an 8 period momentum indicator of the R/S line. The red horizontal line is drawn at the zero line.
For daily or 130-minute time periods (or shorter), my R/S charts are slightly different - the moving averages of the R/S line include a 20EMA (brown dash line), a 50 EMA (blue dash line) and an 8 SMA of the20 EMA (pink solid line). The momentum indicator is also slightly different from the weekly/monthly charts – here I use a 12 period calculation (vs 8 SMA period for the weekly/monthly charts)." Leaf's methods do evolve and so watch for any changes to the preferred MAs etc..

This system is a clash of two indicators, Momentum and RSI. Strength of signals are viewed by both height and color. Dark Green or Light Red bars signal strong momentum. Light Red bar signals and Green bar signals reach an apex at the top of the indicator pane.
UCS_S_Steve Primo - Strategy #8Hello Fellas,
Hope you are trading fantastic and fine. Here is another setup from Steve Primo (Stocks) Setups. He claims this can be applied on any market, and you can. Primarily focused on Stocks and Futures market.
NOTE : I DID CODE THE BOTTOM INDICATOR, NOT PUBLISHING IT, ITS JUST RSI(5)
What did I change, ofcourse I don't publish what I find, There is a bit of me in the codes.....
1. Setup only shows up at meaningful levels, Stringent Filter
Myself and tradearcher will keep this upto date. As he has volenteered to help with the track record of steve primo strategies.
docs.google.com
This is more like catching a freight train after a mini pullback.
AGAIN, This is not a holy grail, but this fits my personality of trading, Buying pullbacks on stronger stocks. Because it is harder to get a UCS_momo_Oscillator to signal a setup, primarily because of the smoothing, you can use this as an alternative to catch the excitement trade.
Do not sit on it for more than T+4 days, Unless another setup triggered in your way.
Rule - Buy/Sell the candle breakout next day after the setup - in the direction it is setting up
- Close the Position @ 100% candle extension or RSI Oversold.
UCS_Murrey's Math Oscillator_V2Hello, Murrey Math lovers, Thanks for those who showed interest on this. Based on a request, I have updated the plot / candle coloring, for Version - 2.
This has been in the queue for a while.
There was a Glitch found with the Multiplier. Will Fix in the next version. The Current Version (and the previous version) only supports 1/8 fractions. Will not support 0.25. The code needs to be updated, to automate the fractal line glitches for other ratios, Planned for future update.
Good Luck and Enjoy the Colorful Oscillator. Please keep your suggestions flowing. Lets make it better.
Mirrored MACD [LazyBear]This is a famous indicator I have seen used by many Forex traders in MT4 platform. This indicator uses the difference between EMA of "close" and EMA of "open" to form the oscillator lines (not just a convergence/divergence calculation between EMA of "close")
Current market state is determined by which histogram is above zero line. For more confirmation, wait for it to cross above Signal line too. Crossing down the signal or zeroline should be the exit condition. Also, look for divergences.
Use plot labels BullHisto/BearHisto/BearLine/BullLine/ZeroLine/Signal for setting up alerts.

UCS_Top & Bottom CandleThis is an experimental Indicator based on Momentum. Picks the Top & Bottom Candle for most Swing. Please post your opinion or suggestion to improve this indicator.
I have not back tested this completely. This is recently developed Indicator.
RSI-Stochastic HybridThis is a very simple idea - an average of RSI and the Stochastic Oscillator. However it offers plenty of flexibility for tuning to your requirements. You can change the lengths of either indicator and the weighting of each. By default it's set to 50/50 (just change the percent RSI to adjust). There is also an optional EMA which can be used as a signal line.
This idea comes from Greg Morris who likes to use it for trend following. I would buy when the indicator hits the overbought line and sell when it goes below 50.
UCS_Squeeze_OptimizationSqueeze Momentum Indicator - Optimized
All Updates from Version 3 + Squeeze Optimized further.
UCS_Squeeze_Timing-V3Another Version with More Features . I am confident enough this works fine now. I am Sure this will be a valuable tool for you guys who love squeezes.
///////////////// This can be further optimized, Let me know with a comment, if you still need this to be optimized. ////////////////////
This update includes
- Added Options to detect squeeze using Heikin Ashi Candle
- Added Options to use BBR or Momentum (ROC) for the Momentum Histogram
- Custom Momentum Smoothing time period
- Removed the Separate Look back periods for BB/KC - Since it doesn't really make sense using different lengths for KC and BB.
HA Closes can be really helpful in trading ETFs like FXE, GLD, FXY, SLV etc, which constantly gaps on daily basis. This helps in smoothing out. And most Importantly it Lines up with the Underlying's Squeeze.
[The Next Major Version is currently being Back tested with better timing triggers etc...... That will replace all other Squeeze indicators in the market - Some Major upgrades have been done to the squeezes to read the consolidation is with support or resistance. Also plan on adding best bet entries and pre-breakout signals. So far so good, this recent contradicting trends in daily / weekly in the market is making the indicator hard to work per theory]
The delay is because, I do not like to post any script (with signals) without sufficient back testing . I will not post these indicator with signals, unless I am sure it works per my theoretical derivations.
-
Thanks for Being Patient and all your support.
Until then - Good Luck Trading.
