SPY 1 Minute Day TraderWhen scalping options, users are looking for where breakouts are going to occur instead of sitting thru areas choppy price action that drain delta and cause them to lose value even if price is up trending. This script tries to identify when a trend reversal is expected based on one minute price action on the SPY. It alerts users to prepare for potential breakout when 5 out of the 6 key optimized parameters are discovered by showing a white L or S. Once all six trigger, it informs the user at the close of that candle with a golden triangle with Pivot Up or Pivot Down. As scalping options is something that is expected to be short in duration, a take profit and stop loss of 30 cents of price actions is established. If five or more parameters occur after the pivot is initiated, then stop losses and take profits are adhered to; however, if there are less, then it waits to take profit or stop the trade, as likely it is just noise and it will finish trend with an additional breakout.
This script has been created to take into account how the following variables impact trend for SPY 1 Minute:
ema vs 13 ema : A cross establishes start of trend
MACD (Line, Signal & Slope) : If you have momentum
ADX : if you are trending
RSI : If the trend has strength
The above has been optimized to determine pivot points in the trend using key values for these 6 indicators
bounce up = ema5 > ema13 and macdLine < .5 and adx > 20 and macdSlope > 0 and signalLine > -.1 and rsiSignal > 40
bounce down = ema5 < ema13 and macdLine > -.5 and adx > 20 and signalLine < 0 and macdSlope < 0 and rsiSignal < 60
White L's indicate that 5 of 6 conditions are met due to impending uptrend w/ missing one in green below it
Yellow L's indicate that 6 of 6 conditions still are met
White S's indicate that 5 of 6 conditions are met due to impending downtrend w/ missing condition in red above it
Yellow S's indicate that 6 of 6 conditions still are met
After a downtrend or uptrend is established, once it closes it can't repeat for 10 minutes
Won't open any trades on last two minutes of any hours to avoid volatility
Will close any open trades going into last minute of hour to avoid large overnight random swings.

Fibonacci Zone DCA Strategy - R3c0nTraderCredits:
Thank you "eykpunter" for granting me permission to use "Fibonacci Zones" to create this strategy
Thank you "junyou0424" for granting me permission to use "DCA Bot with SuperTrend Emulator" which I used for adding bot inputs, calculations, and strategy
Pre-requisites:
You can use this script without a 3Commas account and see how 3Commas DCA Bot would perform. However, I highly recommend signing up for their free account, going through their training, and testing this strategy with a paper bot. This would give you a base understanding of the settings you will see in this strategy and why you will need to know them.
What can this do?
First off, this is a Long only strategy as I wrote it with DCA in mind. It cannot be used for shorting. Shorting defeats the purpose of a DCA bot which has a goal that is Long a position not Short a position. If you want to short, there are plenty of free scripts out there that do this.
I created this script out of curiosity and I wanted to see how a strategy based on “Fibonacci” levels would work with a 3Commas DCA bot. I came across "eykpunter’s" "Fibonacci Zones" study and in TradingView and I found it to be a very interesting concept. The "Fib Zones" in his study are basically a "Donchian Channel" of 4 Fibonacci lines. These are the High @ 0.236, Center High @ 0.382, Center Low @ 0.618, and Low @ 0.764.
The Fib Zones in this strategy can be used as conditions to open a trade as well as closing a trade. There is also the option to close a trade based on a Target Take Profit (%).
Advanced Fibonacci trading is also supported by specifying additional parameters for Trade Entry and Exit.
For example, for order entry, you can increase the minimum trend strength to open an order via the "minimum ADX value" option. You can also further limit order entry by selecting the option to "Only open trades on bullish +DI" (Positive Directional Index).
Or you can play the contrarian. For example, I would look for "buying the dip" opportunities by doing the following under "Trade Entry Settings":
Set the "Min ADX value to open trade" to zero
Set the option "Open a trade when the price moves" to "1-To the bottom of Downtrend Fib zone" or "2-Higher than the top of the Downtrend Fib zone"
Uncheck option "Only open trades on bullish +DI"
Set the 'Min ADX value to open trade' to Zero
Set the 'Max +DI value to open trade' to a value between 10-20.
For Trade Exit settings, I can use a "Target Take Profit (%)" or one of the High Fib levels to close the trade.
Here's an example result when using a Contrarian-Fibonacci-Zone-DCA strategy:

[blackcat] L3 DMIQLevel: 3
Background
The directional movement index (DMI) is an indicator developed by J. Welles Wilder in 1978 that identifies in which direction the price of an asset is moving. The indicator does this by comparing prior highs and lows and drawing two lines: a positive directional movement line (+DI) and a negative directional movement line (-DI). An optional third line, called the average directional index (ADX), can also be used to gauge the strength of the uptrend or downtrend.
Function
When +DI is above -DI, there is more upward pressure than downward pressure in the price. Conversely, if -DI is above +DI, then there is more downward pressure on the price. This indicator may help traders assess the trend direction. Crossovers between the lines are also sometimes used as trade signals to buy or sell.
The directional movement index (DMI) is a technical indicator that measures both the strength and direction of a price movement and is intended to reduce false signals.
The DMI utilizes two standard indicators, one negative (-DM) and one positive (+DN), in conjunction with a third, the average directional index (ADX), which is non-directional but shows momentum.
The larger the spread between the two primary lines, the stronger the price trend. If +DI is way above -DI the price trend is strongly up. If -DI is way above +DI then the price trend is strongly down.
ADX measures the strength of the trend, either up or down; a reading above 25 indicates a strong trend.
Remarks
Free and Open Source
Alerts are added.
Leonidas Squeeze Momentum SystemThis indicator is based on LazyBear SQ Momentum Indicator and SQ Plus Indicator.
This indicator is using ADX and Squeeze Momentum Indicator.
When you see the ADX above 0 line and the slop is positive that means the trend is strong
When the ADX is below 0 line and the trend is weak you will see the slop negative and the color gray
When we see the SQ changing the color from Red to Yellow that means the sell pressure is decreasing this could be a potential buy signal
When we see the color changing from blue to dark blue that means the buy pressure is decreasing this could be a a potential sell signal
Bull/Bear divergences supported
Added SQ signal
this signal is an exponential moving average following the SQ main signal useful for filtering fake signals.
This indicator is very powerful but offers many fake signals it is recommended using this indicator with other indicators to confirm the entries
The Witcher [30MIN] - AlertsHello,
This is the Witcher Bot
This bot is got best performance at BTCUSDTPERP BINANCE FUTURES
this is bot for leverage 1x,
I tried focusing at highest % profitable trades, bot could be optimalised to even higher profit net.
TP: 1.1
SL: 8.2
Stop-loss unfortunelly have to be high to avoid bear/bull traps
The core of this strategy is trend strenght ( MONEY FLOW INDKES)
Strategy can only open position on strong price movment, to avoid wrong decision
Settings are set for highest profitable trades %
Bot using 10 indicators to trigger basic condtition for long and short :
1) ADX - Is one of the most powerful and accurate trend indicators. ADX measures how strong a trend is, and can give valuable information on whether there is a potential trading opportunity.
2) RSI - value helps strategy to stop trade in right time. When RSI is overbought strategy don't open new longs , also when RSI is oversold strategy don't open new shorts
3) TREND STRENGHT
4) JURIK MOVING AVERAGE - The Jurik Moving Average indicator is one of the surest ways to smoothen price curves within a minimum time lag. The indicator offers currency traders one of the best price filters during strong price moves. In this time, when bitcoin price action is so strong, this indicator is necessary.
5) SAR - The parabolic SAR is a technical indicator used to determine the price direction of an asset, as well as draw attention to when the price direction is changing. SAR supporting bot, to not open new trades when the trends are slowly changing
6) TREND INDICATOR
7) MOMENTUM - Indicator istechnical analysis tool used to determine the strength or weakness of a stock's price. Momentum measures the rate of the rise or fall of stock prices. Common momentum indicators include the relative strength index ( RSI ) and moving average convergence divergence ( MACD ).
8) OBV - On-balance volume (OBV) is a technical trading momentum indicator that uses volume flow to predict changes in stock price.
9) FAST MA - like previous ones this is for better view of trends, and correctly define the trends, also Speed_MA are using for predict the future price action.
10) RANGE FILTER - this indicator is for the better view of trends, define trends, that is important for every bull/bear traps which helps a lot becouse of the very variable trends.
I decided to add momentum indicator to strategy, to make a fast-reacting decision on lower timeframes at extremly price volatility
Also bot got additional EMA scalping option, which increase profit net but, in some situation, that could be risky.
For max security I recommend to turn off this option.
Commision are set at standard binancefutures VIP-0 = 0.04%
After converting strategy into study version, bot is ready for automation.

Trading Made Easy ATR BandsAs always, this is not financial advice and use at your own risk. Trading is risky and can cost you significant sums of money if you are not careful. Make sure you always have a proper entry and exit plan that includes defining your risk before you enter a trade.
Background:
This is my take on two relatively famous indicators that paint the colour of your candles in order to help identify trend direction and smooth out market noise. The Elder Impulse System was designed by Dr . Alexander Elder in his book Come Into My Trading Room and attempts to identify the change of trends and when these trends speed up and slow down (school.stockcharts.com). The system used a 13 period EMA and a MACD histogram, and compared each of these indicators to the previous period. In short, when both the histogram and the EMA were rising, the trend was accelerating to the upside and when both were falling, accelerating to the downside. Conversely, when the indicators were not in alignment, say the MACD falling but the EMA rising, it signaled a slowing down of momentum. The downside of this indicator is that it be can rather jumpy, focusing on a short period EMA for 50% of its calculation, leaving a trader to potentially sit on the sidelines during opportune pull backs to enter winning positions, or exit early when there is still a lot of gas left in the tank.
A similar concept has been employed by John Carter and his organization, SimplerTrading, with the 10X bars indicator. However, here they use the famous Directional Movement Index (DMI) created by J. Welles Wilder as the basis for their bars (www.simplertrading.com). John Carter states that the use of this indicator can lead to getting in earlier on more, bigger, and faster setups. The downside of this indicator is the reliance on the ADX calculations to keep you out of rangebound trades. Anyone who is familiar with the DMI system understands it has unparalleled ability to identify longer term trends, but it is also quite slow, leaving the trader to miss a good portion of the initial runup due to this ADX portion that is very slow to get moving and also slow to signal exits.
In short, both of these systems are designed with one thing in mind: keeping the trader on the right side of the move --- but both suffer from the same issue but on opposite sides of the spectrum. One is too fast and the other is too slow. Ultimately, leaving profits on the table for the trader when such a situation could be avoided.
Here I present my own take on these and have made the “Trading Made Easy ATR Bands”. I name it this because trading is much easier when you trade with the prevailing trend, and this system identifies these periods quite effectively while doing a better job of handling the speed flux of most markets. The base formula uses the DMI as its main calculation and the relationship between the DMI+ and DMI- lines, respectively, like the 10X bars. While the trader can investigate these on their own to understand these more intimately, essentially the DMI+ and DMI- lines are calculating the highs and lows respectively of each bar compared to a period in the past and smoothed with the true range, a measurement of volatility . What this ultimately presents is a picture of uptrends and downtrends, where price is making consistently more highs or more lows over a period of time. Where I have modified this relative to the 10X bars is I have ignored the ADX calculations. Further, values over 25 have been discussed as “strong” momentum, in my calculations, I have sped this up to 20 to get a trader into the move earlier. Second, I have added an additional calculation based around the 21-period exponential moving average calculated against its previous output. This then, like the Elder Impulse System, has two forms of market momentum as its calculation to smooth out noise, but has the benefit of being less jumpy, like the original 10X bar system. I have added a series of exponential moving averages following the Fibonacci sequence from 8-144 as a system of dynamic support and resistance showing the sentiment of both the shorter and longer term market participants. Last, I have added a series of Keltner Channels , from 1X-4X, that encompass the 21 period EMA as a base line. The 21 EMA is a stable in all of John Carter’s work and I do believe he is correct that the market is mostly structured around this line, since it roughly approximates one month of trading data. It is not uncommon to see price expand and contract back to this line over and over again.
Trade Signals:
Strong Bullish Momentum – The system will generate a green bar when the DMI+ line is over the DMI- line, the DMI+ line is equal or greater than 20 and the 21 EMA has increased relative to its last close.
Weak Bullish Momentum – The system will generate a blue bar in several scenarios. First, when the DMI+ line is over the DMI- line but the DMI+ line is not over 20 and the EMA is equal or less than the previous close. It will also print a blue bar if either the DMI or the EMA are not aligned, such as the DMI+ is over the DMI- but not over 20 but the EMA has risen compared to the last bar. Last, it will also print a blue bar if the DMI- is over the DMI+ but the EMA is rising.
Strong Bearish Momentum – The system will generate a red bar when the DMI- line is over the DMI+ line, the DMI- line is equal or greater than 20, and the 21 EMA has fallen relative to its last close.
Weak Bearish Momentum – The system will generate an orange bar in several scenarios. First when the DMI- line is over the DMI+ line but the DMI- line is not over 20 and the EMA is equal or greater than the last bar. It will also print an orange bar if either the DMI or the EMA are not aligned, such as the DMI- is over the DMI+ but not over 20 but the EMA has fallen. Lastly, it will also print an orange bar if the DMI+ line is over the DMI- and the EMA has fallen relative to the last bar.
Uses:
1) Like the Elder Impulse System and 10X Bar systems, these should be used as trade filters only.. It is in the trader’s best interest to trade with the trends and these bars identify these periods but may not always generate the most opportune time to enter a market. For instance, trying to short a market when the market is in a phase of Strong Bullish Momentum would not be wise, and vice versa with trying to open long positions when the market is exhibiting Strong Bearish Momentum. Use multiple forms of evidence to confirm the signals shown before entering any trade and to not take these signals on their without confluence of ideas. A viable system could use the Elder Triple Screen System (for reference, see this decent write up --- www.dailyforex.com) with the Trading Made Easy Bands as your “Tide” or longer term filter, and a further trading plan to establish an entry on a short time frame pull back.
2) Interim Trend Exhaustion – Keltner channels work as moving standard deviations from the 21 EMA . 3X multipliers will encompass 99.7% of price and 4X will encompass 99.9% of price away from the 21 EMA . During a trend it would be a good idea to lock in partial profits when price reaches these outer extrema as it is very highly probable that a retracement back to the mean is approaching. While not part of the system, and not recommended to be used by this system, a mean reversion trader could in theory look for reversals at these extrema points and trade a mean reversion strategy back to the 21EMA, but is a much riskier trade with lower probability of success. A trend trader should look to enter trades when a signal is given within the 1ATR or 2ATR zone as this is when price has not really started accelerating yet and is likely to see continued momentum in that direction.
Indicators Combination Framework v3 IND [DTU]Hello All,
This script is a framework to analyze and see the results by combine selected indicators for (long, short, longexit, shortexit) conditions.
I was designed this for beginners and users to facilitate to see effects of the technical indicators combinations on the chart WITH NO CODE
You can improve your strategies according the results of this system by connecting the framework to a strategy framework/template such as Pinecoder, Benson, daveatt or custom.
This is enhanced version of my previous indicator "Indicators & Conditions Test Framework "
Currently there are 93 indicators (23 newly added) connected over library. You can also import an External Indicator or add Custom indicator (In the source)
It is possible to change it from Indicator to strategy (simple one) by just remarking strategy parts in the source code and see real time profit of your combinations
Feel free to change or use it in your source
Special thanks goes to Pine wizards: Trading view (built-in Indicators), @Rodrigo, @midtownsk8rguy, @Lazybear, @Daveatt and others for their open source codes and contributions
SIMPLE USAGE
1. SETTING: Show Alerts= True (To see your entries and Exists)
2. Define your Indicators (ex: INDICATOR1: ema(close,14), INDICATOR2: ema(close,21), INDICATOR3: ema(close,200)
3. Define Your Combinations for long & Short Conditions
a. For Long: (INDICATOR1 crossover INDICATOR2) AND (INDICATOR3 < close)
b. For Short: (INDICATOR1 crossunder INDICATOR2) AND (INDICATOR3 > close)
4. Select Strategy/template (Import strategy to chart) that you export your signals from the list
5. Analyze the best profit by changing Indicators values
SOME INDICATORS DETAILS
Each Indicator includes:
- Factorization : Converting the selected indicator to Double, triple Quadruple such as EMA to DEMA, TEMA QEMA
- Log : Simple or log10 can be used for calculation on function entries
- Plot Type : You can overlay the indicator on the chart (such ema) or you can use stochastic/Percentrank approach to display in the variable hlines range
- Extended Parametes : You can use default parameters or you can use extended (P1,P2) parameters regarding to indicator type and your choice
- Color : You can define indicator color and line properties
- Smooth : you can enable swma smooth
- indicators : you can select one of the 93 function like ema(),rsi().. to define your indicator
- Source : you can select from already defined indicators (IND1-4), External Indicator (EXT), Custom Indicator (CUST), and other sources (close, open...)
CONDITION DETAILS
- There are are 4 type of conditions, long entry, short entry, long exit, short exit.
- Each condition are built up from 4 combinations that joined with "AND" & "OR" operators
- You can see the results by enabling show alerts check box
- If you only wants to enter long entry and long exit, just fill these conditions
- If "close on opposite" checkbox selected on settings, long entry will be closed on short entry and vice versa
COMBINATIONS DETAILS
- There are 4 combinations that joined with "AND" & "OR" operators for each condition
- combinations are built up from compare 1st entry with 2nd one by using operator
- 1st and 2nd entries includes already defined indicators (IND1-5), External Indicator (EXT), Custom Indicator (CUST), and other sources (close, open...)
- Operators are comparison values such as >,<, crossover,...
- 2nd entry include "VALUE" parameter that will use to compare 1st indicator with value area
- If 2nd indicator selected different than "VALUE", value are will mean previous value of the selection. (ex: value area= 2, 2nd entry=close, means close )
- Selecting "NONE" for the 1st entry will disable calculation of current and following combinations
JOINS DETAILS
- Each combination will join wiht the following one with the JOIN (AND, OR) operator (if the following one is not equal "NONE")
CUSTOM INDICATOR
- Custom Indicator defines harcoded in the source code.
- You can call it with "CUST" in the Indicator definition source or combination entries source
- You can change or implement your custom indicator by updating the source code
EXTERNAL INDICATOR
- You can import an external indicator by selecting it from the ext source.
- External Indicator should be already imported to the chart and it have an plot function to output its signal
EXPORTING SIGNAL
- You can export your result to an already defined strategy template such as Pine coders, Benson, Daveatt Strategy templates
- Or you can define your custom export for other future strategy templates
ALERTS
- By enabling show alerts checkbox, you can see long entry exits on the bottom, and short entry exits aon the top of the chart
ADDITIONAL INFO
- You can see all off the inputs descriptions in the tooltips. (You can also see the previous version for details)
- Availability to set start, end dates
- Minimize repainting by using security function options (Secure, Semi Secure, Repaint)
- Availability of use timeframes

Joint Conditions Strategy Suite + TradingConnector alerts bot"Please give us combined alerts with the possibility of having several conditions in place to trigger the alert." - was the top voted request from users under one of the recent blogposts by TradingView.
Ask and you shall receive ;)
TradingView is a great platform, with unmatched set of functionalities, yet this particular combo of features indeed seems not to be in place. Fortunately, TradingView is also very open platform, thanks to PineScript coding language, which enables developing combos like the requried one and plenty of other magic.
I have already published numerous "educational" scripts, showing how to code indicators and alerts with PineScript, but... this is not one of them. This one is for real. READY FOR USE on real markets, also by the non-coding traders. Just take my script, set parameters with dropdowns, backtest the strategy, fire the alerts and execute them.
HOW TO USE IT
In "Settings" popup I tried to mimic the CreateAlert popup dropdowns for selecting logic. Let's say you want to enter Long position at Stochastic KxD crossover. In first line of Long Entry conditions set "StochK" + "Crossing Up" + "StochD". Last field doesn't matter because in 3rd dropdown something else than "value" was selected. In second line you could set "maB" + "Greater Than" + "maC" to filter out those entries which are in direction of the uptrend. And yeah, add ADX>25 to make sure the market is actually moving: "ADX" + "Greater Than" + "value" + "25". All condition lines must be TRUE (or skipped) for the entry to be triggered. Toghether with an alert.
The same for Short entries. Combinations are limitless.
INDICATORS AND MTF (MULTI-TIMEFRAME)
In those dropdowns you can select candle values like open/close/high/low/ohlc4, but also some most popular indicators, which I have pre-built into this script: RSI, various Moving Averages, ADX-DMI, Stochastic and Bollinger Bands for start. You can configure parameters of those indicators also in "Settings" popup, in "Indicator Definitions" section. What's important, you can use any of these indicators from higher timeframe, setting MTF multiplier. So if you applied this indicator to 1h chart, but want to use rsi(close,14) from 4h chart, set MTF to 4. If you want to use current timeframe indicators, keep MTF at 1, which is a default setting here.
Note for coders: to keep focus of this script on joining conditions, entire logic for those indicators has been moved to external library, also open source. I encourage you to dig into the code and see how it's done. I love the addition of libraries concept in PineScript.
CUSTOM INDICATOR
Following the "openness" spirit of my master - which is TradingView itself - my work is also open, in 2 ways:
1. This script is open source. So you can grab it, modify or add any functionalities you want. I cannot and don't want to stop you from doing that. I'm asking for only one favor - please mention this source script in your credits.
2. You can import the plot (series) from any other indicator on TradingView. In Settings popup of my script, scroll down to "Indicator Definitions" section, and select the series of your choice in the first dropdown. Now it is ready to use in conditions dropdowns on top of the Settings popup.
Let me give you an example of that last scenario. Take another script of mine, "Pivot Points on SR lines DEMO". You can find it in "Indicators & Strategies" library or here: (). Attach it to your chart. Now come back to THIS script, open Settings popup and in "Custom Indicator aka Imported Source" select "Pivot Points on SR lines: ...". The way it works - it detects if a pivot point happened on Support/Resistance line from the past and returns 1 for PivotLow and -1 for Pivot High. Now in first Long Entry condition set: "custom indicator" + "Greater Than" + "value" + "0" and long entries will be marked on every pivot low noticed on Support/Resistance line.
ALERTS
Last but not least - the alerts. This script produces alerts on the entries calculated by strategy logic, as marked on the chart by the backtester. Moreover, syntax of those alerts is already prepared and fully compatible with TradingConnector - alerts executing tool (bot), if you want to auto-execute those trades. Apart from installing the tool, you need to set
up the alerts in TradingView, here is how:
open CreateAlert popup
in first dropdown select "Joint Conditions Strategy Template"
in second dropdown select "alert() function calls only"
And that's all. You only need to set one alert for the whole script, not one for Longs and one for Shorts as it was in the past. Also, you don't need to setup closing alerts, because stop-loss/take-profit/trailing-stop information is embedded in the entry alert so your broker receives it as early as possible. Alerts sent will look like this: "long sl=40 tp=80", which is exactly what TradingConnector expects.
Phew, that's all folks. If you think I should add something to this template (maybe other indicators?) please let me know in comments or via DM. Happy trading!
P.S. Pyramiding is not supported in this script.
Disclaimer : I'm not saying above combination of conditions will make you money. Actually none of this can be considered financial advice. It is only a software tool. Use it wisely, be aware of the risk and do your own research!
[blackcat] L1 Enhanced DMILevel: 1
Background
The Directional Movement Index (DMI) is an indicator developed by J. Welles Wilder in 1978 that shows the direction in which the price of an asset is moving. The indicator does this by comparing previous highs and lows and drawing two lines: a positive directional movement line (+ DI) and a negative directional movement line (-DI). An optional third line, called the Average Directional Index (ADX), can also be used to measure the strength of the upward or downward trend.
When + DI is above -DI there is more upward pressure than downward pressure in price. Conversely, when -DI is above + DI, there is more downward pressure on the price. This indicator can help traders estimate the direction of the trend. Crossovers between the lines are also sometimes used as trading signals to buy or sell.
Function
This is a blackcat1402 enhanced DMI indicator by counting period number of +DI and -DI relationship, overbought and oversold states are given.
Key Signal
White line --> +DI
Yellow line --> -DI
Fuchsia line --> ADX
Green line --> ADXR, or averaged ADX
red OB label --> overbought
green OS label --> oversold
Remarks
Feedbacks are appreciated.
Readme
In real life, I am a prolific inventor. I have successfully applied for more than 60 international and regional patents in the past 12 years. But in the past two years or so, I have tried to transfer my creativity to the development of trading strategies. Tradingview is the ideal platform for me. I am selecting and contributing some of the hundreds of scripts to publish in Tradingview community. Welcome everyone to interact with me to discuss these interesting pine scripts.
The scripts posted are categorized into 5 levels according to my efforts or manhours put into these works.
Level 1 : interesting script snippets or distinctive improvement from classic indicators or strategy. Level 1 scripts can usually appear in more complex indicators as a function module or element.
Level 2 : composite indicator/strategy. By selecting or combining several independent or dependent functions or sub indicators in proper way, the composite script exhibits a resonance phenomenon which can filter out noise or fake trading signal to enhance trading confidence level.
Level 3 : comprehensive indicator/strategy. They are simple trading systems based on my strategies. They are commonly containing several or all of entry signal, close signal, stop loss, take profit, re-entry, risk management, and position sizing techniques. Even some interesting fundamental and mass psychological aspects are incorporated.
Level 4 : script snippets or functions that do not disclose source code. Interesting element that can reveal market laws and work as raw material for indicators and strategies. If you find Level 1~2 scripts are helpful, Level 4 is a private version that took me far more efforts to develop.
Level 5 : indicator/strategy that do not disclose source code. private version of Level 3 script with my accumulated script processing skills or a large number of custom functions. I had a private function library built in past two years. Level 5 scripts use many of them to achieve private trading strategy.
Didi's TrendChanges the background according to the DMI trend.
Based on the way the infamous Brazilian trader with over 40 years experience, Master Didi Aguiar reads the Directional Movement Index — one indicators in his setup.
It's read this way:
Only trade on the direction of the trend. Start the trade when accelerating:
Blue = Long trend
Bright Blue = Long trend, accelerating
Purple = Short trend
Bright Purple = Short trend, accelerating
Change from bright to dark color = ADX's bounce, the first signal to exit the trade.
Nor coloured background = no trend.
Use other indicators to confirm your trades.
Not recommended for color blind people :)
-----------------------------------------
Indicador que muda a cor do fundo de acordo com a tendencia.
É baseado na maneira que Didi Aguiar lê o DMI e o ADX .
Lê-se assim:
Fundo azul = Tendencia de compra
Fundo roxo = Tendencia de venda
Cor mais saturada (vibrante) = Tendencia acelerante
Passou de cor mais clara para mais escura = Kick do ADX
Sem coloração de fundo = Sem tendencia
Não é indicado para pessoas que sofrem de daltonismo.
ADX_TSI_Bol Band Trend ChaserThe idea of this script is to be a low risk strategy on trending stocks (or any other trending market), aiming to achieve minimal draw down (e.g. at time of writing AAPL only had ~1.36% draw down, FB ~1.93% draw down and the SPY was 0.80% draw down and all remained profitable).
Testing proved it shouldn't be used in choppy stocks and best period was on daily charts. The back test filter goes back until 2010 so you can obtain 10 years of data.
The strategy utilizes the 200 Moving Average, a Custom Bollinger Band, a TSI with 52 period weighted moving average and ADX strength.
Although back test dates are set to 2010 - 2020, all other filters (moving average, ADX, TSI , Bollinger Band) are not locked so they can be user amended if desired. However the current settings have been tested with manual trading for quite some time to get this combination correct.
Buy signal is given when trading above the 200 moving average + 5 candles have closed above the upper custom Bollinger + the TSI is positive + ADX is above 20.
As back testing proved that this traded better only in tends then some Sell/Short conditions have been removed from the script and this only takes Long orders.
Only requires 2 additional lines of code to add shorting order and then remove the "buy" condition and this could be used for a downward trending stock instead.
Close for either long or short trades is signaled once the TSI crosses in the opposite direction indicating change in trend strength.
Further optimization could be achieved by adding a stop loss, which I may do in the future.
NOTE: This only shows the lower indicators however for visualization you can use my script "CUSTOM BOLLINGER WITH SMA", which is the upper indicators in this strategy.
This is my first attempt at coding a strategy so I'm happy to receive any feedback or hints on how this could be written better from any experienced coders!

HEMA Trend by Rostek (Filters + ATR + RR) For testing by anyone. Enjoy! :)
HEMA Trend Levels with Gradient, ATR-based SL & TP, HTF Filter, and R/R Statistics
This advanced indicator is designed to help you detect high-quality trend crossovers using HEMA (Hull Exponential Moving Average) smoothing logic. It integrates dynamic visualization, strong multi-layer filters, and risk management levels — all in one package.
✅ Core Concept
The indicator plots two HEMAs (fast and slow), with a gradient fill between them that dynamically changes color based on the trend direction. Crossovers between these HEMAs generate potential trade signals (long or short).
🎨 Key Visual Features
Smooth gradient fill area between fast and slow HEMA.
Dynamic arrows marking crossover points (precisely above/below HEMA cross).
Optional ATR-based Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) levels shown as dashed lines with labels.
Automatic display of calculated Risk/Reward (R/R) ratio next to TP level.
⚙️ Powerful Filters
You can enable/disable each of these filters individually:
✅ EMA Filter — Confirm signals only when the price is above/below a selected EMA (default: 100).
✅ ADX Filter — Confirms signals only if ADX value exceeds a set threshold (default: 20).
✅ RSI Filter — Filter signals based on RSI value (e.g., >50 for longs, <50 for shorts).
✅ Higher Time Frame (HTF) EMA Filter — Only take signals aligned with a higher timeframe EMA trend (e.g., daily EMA 100).
📏 Risk Management Features
ATR-based Stop Loss (SL): Dynamic stop level calculated using ATR, configurable multiplier (e.g., 1.5 × ATR).
ATR-based Take Profit (TP): Dynamic take profit level based on ATR, configurable multiplier (e.g., 3 × ATR).
Risk/Reward Statistics: Calculates and displays R/R ratio on the chart to help visually evaluate trade setups.
🔔 Alerts
A single unified alert condition for both long and short filtered signals, making it easy to set up TradingView alerts.
⚡ Usage Tips
Adjust HEMA lengths (default: 20 & 40) to tune responsiveness.
Enable/disable filters depending on your strategy and market conditions.
Fine-tune ATR multipliers for SL/TP based on your risk tolerance.
Use HTF filter to trade only in the direction of the main higher timeframe trend.
✅ Ideal for
Trend-following traders who want smoothed entries.
Traders looking for integrated visual risk management levels.
Users who want precise, customizable signals with strong filtering logic.

Market Matrix ViewThis technical indicator is designed to provide traders with a quick and integrated view of market dynamics by combining several popular indicators into a single tool. It's not a magic bullet, but a practical aid for analyzing buying/selling pressure, trends, volume, and divergences, saving you time in the decision-making process. Built for flexibility, the indicator adapts to various trading styles (scalping, swing, or long-term) and offers customizable settings to suit your needs.
🟡 Multi-Timeframe Trends
➤ This section displays the trend direction (bullish, bearish, or neutral) across 15-minute, 1-hour, 4-hour, and Daily timeframes, providing multi-timeframe market context. Timeframes lower than the one currently selected will show "N/A."
➤It utilizes fast and slow Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) for each timeframe:
15m: Fast EMA 42, Slow EMA 170
1h: Fast EMA 40, Slow EMA 100
4h: Fast EMA 36, Slow EMA 107
Daily: Fast EMA 20, Slow EMA 60
🟡 Smart Flow & RVOL
➤ This section displays "Buying Pressure" or "Selling Pressure" signals based on indicator confluence, alongside volume activity ("High Activity," "Normal Activity," or "Low Activity").
➤ Smart Flow combines Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) and Money Flow Index (MFI) to detect buying/selling pressure. CMF measures money flow based on price position within the high-low range, while MFI analyzes money flow considering typical price and volume. A signal is generated only when both indicators simultaneously increase/decrease beyond an adjustable threshold ("Buy/Sell Sensitivity") and volume exceeds a Simple Moving Average (SMA) scaled by the "Volume Multiplier."
➤ RVOL (Relative Volume) calculates relative volume separately for bullish and bearish candles, comparing recent volume (fast SMA) with a reference volume (slow SMA). Thresholds are adjusted based on the selected mode.
🟡 ADX & RSI
This section displays trend strength ("Strong," "Moderate," or "Weak"), its direction ("Bullish" or "Bearish"), and the RSI momentum status ("Overbought," "Oversold," "Buy/Sell Momentum," or "Neutral").
➤ ADX (Average Directional Index) measures trend strength (above 40 = "Strong," 20–40 = "Moderate," below 20 = "Weak"). Direction is determined by comparing +DI (upward movement) with -DI (downward movement). Additionally, an arrow indicates whether the trend's strength is decreasing or increasing.
➤RSI (Relative Strength Index) evaluates price momentum. Extreme levels (above 80/85 = "Overbought," below 15/20 = "Oversold") and intermediate zones (47–53 = "Neutral," above 53 = "Buy Momentum," below 47 = "Sell Momentum") are adjusted based on the selected mode.
🟡 When these signals are active for a potential trade setup, the table's background lights up green or red, respectively.
🟡 Volume Spikes
➤This feature highlights bars with significantly higher volume than the recent average, coloring them yellow on the chart to draw attention to intense market activity.
➤It uses the Z-Score method to detect volume anomalies. Current volume is compared to a 10-bar Simple Moving Average (SMA) and the standard deviation of volume over the same period. If the Z-Score exceeds a certain threshold, the bar is marked as a volume spike.
🟡 Divergences (Volume Divergence Detection)
➤ This feature marks divergences between price and technical indicators on the chart, using diamond-shaped labels (green for bullish divergences, red for bearish divergences) to signal potential trend reversals.
➤ It compares price deviations from a Simple Moving Average (SMA) with deviations of three indicators: Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), Money Flow Index (MFI), and On-Balance Volume (OBV). A bullish divergence occurs when price falls below its average, but CMF, MFI, and OBV rise above their averages, indicating hidden accumulation. A bearish divergence occurs when price rises above its average, but CMF, MFI, and OBV fall, suggesting distribution. The length of the moving averages is adjustable (default 13/10/5 bars for Scalping/Balanced/Swing), and detection thresholds are scaled by "Divergence Sensitivity" (default 1.0).
🟡 Adaptive Stop-Loss (ATR)
➤Draws dynamic stop-loss lines (red, dashed) on the chart for buy or sell signals, helping traders manage risk.Uses the Average True Range (ATR) to calculate stop-loss levels, set at low/high ± ATR × multiplier
🟡 Alerts for trend direction changes in the Info Panel:
➤ Triggers notifications when the trend shifts to Bullish (when +DI crosses above -DI) or Bearish (when +DI crosses below -DI), helping you stay informed about key market shifts.
How to use: Set alerts in Trading View for “Trend Changed to Bullish” or “Trend Changed to Bearish” with “Once Per Bar Close” for reliable signals.
🟡 Settings (Inputs)
➤ The indicator offers customizable settings to fit your trading style, but it's already optimized for Scalping (1m–15m), Balanced (16m–3h59m), and Swing (4h–Daily) modes, which automatically adjust based on the selected timeframe. The visible inputs allow you to adjust the following parameters:
Show Info Panel: Enables/disables the information panel (default: enabled).
Show Volume Spikes: Turns on/off coloring for volume spike bars (default: enabled).
Spike Sensitivity: Controls the Z-Score threshold for detecting volume spikes (default: 2.0; lower values increase signal frequency).

Volume Weighted RSI (VW RSI)The Volume Weighted RSI (VW RSI) is a momentum oscillator designed for TradingView, implemented in Pine Script v6, that enhances the traditional Relative Strength Index (RSI) by incorporating trading volume into its calculation. Unlike the standard RSI, which measures the speed and change of price movements based solely on price data, the VW RSI weights its analysis by volume, emphasizing price movements backed by significant trading activity. This makes the VW RSI particularly effective for identifying bullish or bearish momentum, overbought/oversold conditions, and potential trend reversals in markets where volume plays a critical role, such as stocks, forex, and cryptocurrencies.
Key Features
Volume-Weighted Momentum Calculation:
The VW RSI calculates momentum by comparing the volume associated with upward price movements (up-volume) to the volume associated with downward price movements (down-volume).
Up-volume is the volume on bars where the closing price is higher than the previous close, while down-volume is the volume on bars where the closing price is lower than the previous close.
These volumes are smoothed over a user-defined period (default: 14 bars) using a Running Moving Average (RMA), and the VW RSI is computed using the formula:
\text{VW RSI} = 100 - \frac{100}{1 + \text{VoRS}}
where
\text{VoRS} = \frac{\text{Average Up-Volume}}{\text{Average Down-Volume}}
.
Oscillator Range and Interpretation:
The VW RSI oscillates between 0 and 100, with a centerline at 50.
Above 50: Indicates bullish volume momentum, suggesting that volume on up bars dominates, which may signal buying pressure and a potential uptrend.
Below 50: Indicates bearish volume momentum, suggesting that volume on down bars dominates, which may signal selling pressure and a potential downtrend.
Overbought/Oversold Levels: User-defined thresholds (default: 70 for overbought, 30 for oversold) help identify potential reversal points:
VW RSI > 70: Overbought, indicating a possible pullback or reversal.
VW RSI < 30: Oversold, indicating a possible bounce or reversal.
Visual Elements:
VW RSI Line: Plotted in a separate pane below the price chart, colored dynamically based on its value:
Green when above 50 (bullish momentum).
Red when below 50 (bearish momentum).
Gray when at 50 (neutral).
Centerline: A dashed line at 50, optionally displayed, serving as the neutral threshold between bullish and bearish momentum.
Overbought/Oversold Lines: Dashed lines at the user-defined overbought (default: 70) and oversold (default: 30) levels, optionally displayed, to highlight extreme conditions.
Background Coloring: The background of the VW RSI pane is shaded red when the indicator is in overbought territory and green when in oversold territory, providing a quick visual cue of potential reversal zones.
Alerts:
Built-in alerts for key events:
Bullish Momentum: Triggered when the VW RSI crosses above 50, indicating a shift to bullish volume momentum.
Bearish Momentum: Triggered when the VW RSI crosses below 50, indicating a shift to bearish volume momentum.
Overbought Condition: Triggered when the VW RSI crosses above the overbought threshold (default: 70), signaling a potential pullback.
Oversold Condition: Triggered when the VW RSI crosses below the oversold threshold (default: 30), signaling a potential bounce.
Input Parameters
VW RSI Length (default: 14): The period over which the up-volume and down-volume are smoothed to calculate the VW RSI. A longer period results in smoother signals, while a shorter period increases sensitivity.
Overbought Level (default: 70): The threshold above which the VW RSI is considered overbought, indicating a potential reversal or pullback.
Oversold Level (default: 30): The threshold below which the VW RSI is considered oversold, indicating a potential reversal or bounce.
Show Centerline (default: true): Toggles the display of the 50 centerline, which separates bullish and bearish momentum zones.
Show Overbought/Oversold Lines (default: true): Toggles the display of the overbought and oversold threshold lines.
How It Works
Volume Classification:
For each bar, the indicator determines whether the price movement is upward or downward:
If the current close is higher than the previous close, the bar’s volume is classified as up-volume.
If the current close is lower than the previous close, the bar’s volume is classified as down-volume.
If the close is unchanged, both up-volume and down-volume are set to 0 for that bar.
Smoothing:
The up-volume and down-volume are smoothed using a Running Moving Average (RMA) over the specified period (default: 14 bars) to reduce noise and provide a more stable measure of volume momentum.
VW RSI Calculation:
The Volume Relative Strength (VoRS) is calculated as the ratio of smoothed up-volume to smoothed down-volume.
The VW RSI is then computed using the standard RSI formula, but with volume data instead of price changes, resulting in a value between 0 and 100.
Visualization and Alerts:
The VW RSI is plotted with dynamic coloring to reflect its momentum direction, and optional lines are drawn for the centerline and overbought/oversold levels.
Background coloring highlights overbought and oversold conditions, and alerts notify the trader of significant crossings.
Usage
Timeframe: The VW RSI can be used on any timeframe, but it is particularly effective on intraday charts (e.g., 1-hour, 4-hour) or daily charts where volume data is reliable. Shorter timeframes may require a shorter length for increased sensitivity, while longer timeframes may benefit from a longer length for smoother signals.
Markets: Best suited for markets with significant and reliable volume data, such as stocks, forex, and cryptocurrencies. It may be less effective in markets with low or inconsistent volume, such as certain futures contracts.
Trading Strategies:
Trend Confirmation:
Use the VW RSI to confirm the direction of a trend. For example, in an uptrend, look for the VW RSI to remain above 50, indicating sustained bullish volume momentum, and consider buying on pullbacks when the VW RSI dips but stays above 50.
In a downtrend, look for the VW RSI to remain below 50, indicating sustained bearish volume momentum, and consider selling on rallies when the VW RSI rises but stays below 50.
Overbought/Oversold Conditions:
When the VW RSI crosses above 70, the market may be overbought, suggesting a potential pullback or reversal. Consider taking profits on long positions or preparing for a short entry, but confirm with price action or other indicators.
When the VW RSI crosses below 30, the market may be oversold, suggesting a potential bounce or reversal. Consider entering long positions or covering shorts, but confirm with additional signals.
Divergences:
Look for divergences between the VW RSI and price to spot potential reversals. For example, if the price makes a higher high but the VW RSI makes a lower high, this bearish divergence may signal an impending downtrend.
Conversely, if the price makes a lower low but the VW RSI makes a higher low, this bullish divergence may signal an impending uptrend.
Momentum Shifts:
A crossover above 50 can signal the start of bullish momentum, making it a potential entry point for long trades.
A crossunder below 50 can signal the start of bearish momentum, making it a potential entry point for short trades or an exit for long positions.
Example
On a 4-hour SOLUSDT chart:
During an uptrend, the VW RSI might rise above 50 and stay there, confirming bullish volume momentum. If it approaches 70, it may indicate overbought conditions, as seen near a price peak of 145.08, suggesting a potential pullback.
During a downtrend, the VW RSI might fall below 50, confirming bearish volume momentum. If it drops below 30 near a price low of 141.82, it may indicate oversold conditions, suggesting a potential bounce, as seen in a slight recovery afterward.
A bullish divergence might occur if the price makes a lower low during the downtrend, but the VW RSI makes a higher low, signaling a potential reversal.
Limitations
Lagging Nature: Like the traditional RSI, the VW RSI is a lagging indicator because it relies on smoothed data (RMA). It may not react quickly to sudden price reversals, potentially missing the start of new trends.
False Signals in Ranging Markets: In choppy or ranging markets, the VW RSI may oscillate around 50, generating frequent crossovers that lead to false signals. Combining it with a trend filter (e.g., ADX) can help mitigate this.
Volume Data Dependency: The VW RSI relies on accurate volume data, which may be inconsistent or unavailable in some markets (e.g., certain forex pairs or futures contracts). In such cases, the indicator’s effectiveness may be reduced.
Overbought/Oversold in Strong Trends: During strong trends, the VW RSI can remain in overbought or oversold territory for extended periods, leading to premature exit signals. Use additional confirmation to avoid exiting too early.
Potential Improvements
Smoothing Options: Add options to use different smoothing methods (e.g., EMA, SMA) instead of RMA for the up/down volume calculations, allowing users to adjust the indicator’s responsiveness.
Divergence Detection: Include logic to detect and plot bullish/bearish divergences between the VW RSI and price, providing visual cues for potential reversals.
Customizable Colors: Allow users to customize the colors of the VW RSI line, centerline, overbought/oversold lines, and background shading.
Trend Filter: Integrate a trend strength filter (e.g., ADX > 25) to ensure signals are generated only during strong trends, reducing false signals in ranging markets.
The Volume Weighted RSI (VW RSI) is a powerful tool for traders seeking to incorporate volume into their momentum analysis, offering a unique perspective on market dynamics by emphasizing price movements backed by significant trading activity. It is best used in conjunction with other indicators and price action analysis to confirm signals and improve trading decisions.
