RSI + Elder Bull-Bear pressure RSI + Bull/Bear (Elder-Ray enhanced RSI)
What it is
An extended RSI that overlays Elder-Ray Bull/Bear Power on the same, zero-centered scale. You get classic RSI regime cues plus a live read of buy/sell pressure, with optional smoothing, bands, and right-edge value labels.
Key features
RSI with bands – default bands 30 / 50 / 70 (editable).
Bull/Bear Power (Elder) – ATR-normalized; optional EMA/SMA/RMA/HMA smoothing.
One-pane overlay – RSI and Bull/Bear share a common midline (RSI-50 ↔ panel 0).
Right-edge labels – always visible at the chart’s right margin with adjustable offsets.
How to read it
Cyan line = RSI (normalized)
Above the mid band = bullish regime; below = bearish regime.
Green = Bull Power, Red = Bear Power
Columns/lines above 0 show buy pressure; below 0 show sell pressure.
Smoothing reduces noise; zero-line remains your key reference.
Trade logic (simple playbook)
Entry
BUY (primary):
RSI crosses up through 50 (regime turns bullish), and
Bull (green) crosses up through 0 (buy pressure confirms).
SELL (primary):
RSI crosses down through 50, and
Bear (red) crosses down through 0 (sell pressure confirms).
Alternative momentum entries
Aggressive BUY: Bull (green) pushes above RSI-80 band (strong upside impulse).
Aggressive SELL: Bear (red) pushes below RSI-30 band (strong downside impulse).
Exits / trade management
In a long: consider exiting or tightening stops if Bear (red) dips below the 0 line (rising sell pressure) or RSI loses 50.
In a short: consider exiting or tightening if Bull (green) rises above 0 or RSI reclaims 50.
Tip: “0” on the panel is your pressure zero-line (maps to RSI-50). Most whipsaws happen near this line; smoothing (e.g., EMA 21) helps.
Defaults (on first load)
RSI bands: 30 / 50 / 70 with subtle fills.
Labels: tiny, pushed far right (large offsets).
Bull/Bear smoothing: EMA(21), smoothed line plot mode.
RSI plotted normalized so it overlaps the pressure lines cleanly.
Tighten or loosen the Bull/Bear thresholds (e.g., Bull ≥ +0.5 ATR, Bear ≤ −0.5 ATR) to demand stronger confirmation.
Settings that matter
Smoothing length/type – balances responsiveness vs. noise.
Power/RSI Gain – visual scaling only (doesn’t change logic).
Band placement – keep raw 30/50/80 or switch to “distance from 50” if you prefer symmetric spacing.
Label offsets – move values clear of the last bar/scale clutter.
Good practices
Combine with structure/ATR stops (e.g., 1–1.5× ATR, swing high/low).
In trends, hold while RSI stays above/below 50 and the opposite pressure line doesn’t dominate.
In ranges, favor signals occurring near the mid band and take profits at the opposite band.

CRT + PO3 Range Theory Hey everyone, I’ve put together a little script for TradingView that tries to show the classic CRT + PO3 (Power of Three) pattern. It’s still a work in progress, so please use it on a demo account and let me know what you think!
What It Does
Accumulation Phase: On each higher‐timeframe bar (e.g. 2-hour), it draws a shaded zone where price is hanging out. That’s when we assume “big players” are quietly building positions.
Manipulation Phase: If price briefly pokes above or below that zone but then slips back inside, it marks that wick as a shake-out.
Distribution Phase: When price finally closes cleanly outside the zone, it draws another shaded area and drops a “Distribution” label plus a big LONG or SHORT arrow on that bar.
You can tweak it so it only shows signals when a bar closes (no more weird flashing mid-bar), or even allow “direct” Distribution on a clean breakout without waiting for a fake wick first.
How to Set It Up
Add the script from your Indicators list.
Pick your HTF (I like 2-hour or 4-hour).
Turn “Show Zone Labels” on or off—these are the little “Accumulation/Manipulation/Distribution” tags.
Turn “Show Entry Signals” on to get the big LONG/SHORT arrows.
If you hate flicker, check “Show signals only at bar close.”
If you want to catch a swift breakout (no fake-out needed), check “Allow direct Distribution on clean breakout.”
There are also sliders for zone colors, transparency, label size, and how far above/below the bars the labels sit.
Why It’s Still a Beta
I’m not a CRT/PO3 guru—this is more of a hobby project and a little facination for this strategy.
There might be edge cases where it misses a shake-out or flags a Distribution too early.
I take no responsibility for your trades—please only run it on a demo account until we’ve worked out the quirks.
Feedback Wanted!
If you try it out, I’d love to hear:
Did the Manipulation wicks line up where you expected?
Were the Distribution arrows on the right bars?
Any ideas for easier settings or extra alerts?
Thanks for testing and helping me turn this into something solid!
