(JS)DMI BarsAlright - so this is my own version of John Carter's "10x Bars"... I have done multiple things that are different from his version so they are slightly different..
So first of all the main indicator is based off of the ADX and the DMI;
For those who aren't familiar with it, Directional Movement is what you'd pull up under "built-in's" from the indicators tab (if you want to check it out).
The standard interpretation of this however, is when the ADX is above 20 that suggests the trend is strong, whereas under 20 suggests it is weak.
Also, when the D+ is above the D- that suggests a bullish trend, and D- above D+ suggests a bearish trend.
These bars take away the need to have it at the bottom of your screen, and places the data on the bars on your chart instead.
=========================================================================================================================================
So here's what the colors stand for -
Yellow - The ADX is under 20, no strength in trend
Shades of green occur when the ADX is above 20 and there's a bullish trend (D+ higher than D-)
Bright Green (Lime) - Bullish trend, D+ above 30
Green - Bullish Trend
Yellow Green - Bullish trend, D+ below 15
Shades of red occur when the ADX is above 20 and there's a bearish trend (D- higher than D+)
Bright Red - Bearish trend, D- above 30
Red - Bearish Trend
Orange - Bearish trend, D- below 15
=========================================================================================================================================
I have also added multiple time frame labels (label script used is the one created by Ricardo Santos)
These labels are color coded the same as the bars/candles, and they appear off to the right of your screen using every built in time increment from TradingView.
The purpose is to show you in real time, and on any chart resolution, what the current trend is on every individual time frame.
So using just one single chart you'll see your current resolutions candles, but also on the labels you'll see:
1 Minute
3 Minute
5 Minute
15 Minute
30 Minute
45 Minute
1 Hour
2 Hour
3 Hour
4 Hour
Daily
Weekly
Monthly
There is an input I added that allows you to adjust where your labels appear on the side of your screen as well!
=========================================================================================================================================
Now onto the volume spike portion of the indicator. This will plot a blue dot under each bar that has a spike in volume which meets your specified criteria.
I have 500% as the default setting.
What that means is that this indicator looks back and gets the 50 bar volume average and then applies dots where volume is 500% above average.
=========================================================================================================================================
Now finally, the reversal arrows. This is another simple to understand concept that I first read in John Carter's book "Mastering the Trade" that he calls "HOLP/LOHP".
I have added the ability to change the look back period you'd like the indicator to watch for highs and lows on.
What that stands for is 'High of Low Period' and 'Low of High Period', and it is used like this-
Whenever a bar makes a new high the indicator watches the low on that highest bar. Then when a bar afterwards makes a lower low then the one on the high bar,
a reversal arrow is given. Apply this same concept in the other direction in for the highs on the lowest bars.
=========================================================================================================================================
Now, I didn't want to make a "set" or have a bunch of different indicators out there that are all intended for the same package, so I took the time to put them together,
and if there's a part of it you don't care for they can easily be turned off in the settings.
Enjoy!

Internal Bar StrengthShort Description:
This indicator calculates the Internal Bar Strength (IBS) for each bar, which measures the close price’s relative position within that bar’s high-low range, and then optionally smooths that value with a selected moving average.
What Does It Measure?
Internal Bar Strength (IBS):
The IBS formula is (close-low)/(high-low)
. This ratio indicates where the closing price lies within a bar’s trading range:
A value near 0 means the close is near the bar’s low.
A value near 1 means the close is near the bar’s high.
A value of 0.5 means the close is exactly in the middle of the bar’s range.
Smoothing (Moving Averages):
You can choose to smooth the IBS value with one of five different moving average types: RMA, SMA, EMA, WMA, or VWMA. The default length for smoothing is 10, but this can be adjusted for more or less sensitivity.
Key Features
Multiple MA Options:
RMA: Also known as the Wilder’s moving average, it reacts slightly slower to changes than EMA.
SMA: Simple moving average, straightforward average of the last n values.
EMA: Exponential moving average, places more weight on recent data.
WMA: Weighted moving average, linear weighting from oldest to newest data.
VWMA: Volume-weighted moving average, weights price by trading volume.
Color Coding:
Green when IBS is greater than 0.5.
Red when IBS is less than or equal to 0.5.
Consecutive Bars Above/Below EMA Buy the Dip Strategy█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "Consecutive Bars Above/Below EMA Buy the Dip Strategy" is a mean-reversion strategy designed to identify potential buying opportunities when the price dips below a moving average for a specified number of consecutive bars. It enters a long position when the dip condition is met and exits when the price shows strength by exceeding the previous bar's high. This strategy is suitable for use on various timeframes.
█ WHAT IS THE MOVING AVERAGE?
The strategy uses either a Simple Moving Average (SMA) or an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) as a reference for identifying dips. The type and length of the moving average can be customized in the settings.
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. LONG ENTRY
A Buy Signal is triggered when:
The close price is below the selected moving average for a specified number of consecutive bars (`consecutiveBarsTreshold`).
The signal occurs within the specified time window (between `Start Time` and `End Time`).
2. EXIT CONDITION
A Sell Signal is generated when the current closing price exceeds the high of the previous bar (`close > high `). This indicates that the price has shown strength, potentially confirming the reversal and prompting the strategy to exit the position.
█ ADDITIONAL SETTINGS
Consecutive Bars Threshold: The number of consecutive bars the price must remain below the moving average to trigger a Buy Signal. Default is 3.
MA Type: The type of moving average used (SMA or EMA). Default is SMA.
MA Length: The length of the moving average. Default is 5.
Start Time and End Time: The time window during which the strategy is allowed to execute trades.
█ PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
This strategy is designed for mean-reverting markets and performs best when the price frequently oscillates around the moving average.
It is sensitive to the number of consecutive bars below the moving average, which helps to identify potential dips.
Backtesting results should be analysed to optimize the Consecutive Bars Threshold, MA Type, and MA Length for specific instruments.
Session Bar/Candle ColoringChange the color of candles within a user-defined trading session. Borders and wicks can be changed as well, not just the body color.
PREFACE
This script can be used an educational resource for those who are interested in learning Pine Script. Therefore, the script is published open source and is organized in a manner that follows the recommended Style Guide .
While the main premise of the indicator is rather simple, the script showcases various things that can be achieved such as conditional plotting, alignment of indicator settings, user input validation, script optimization, and more. The script also has examples of taking into consideration the chart timeframe and/or different chart types (Heikin Ashi, Renko, etc.) that a user might be running it on. Note: for complete beginners, I strongly suggest going through the Pine Script User Manual (possibly more than once).
FEATURES
Besides being able to select a specific time window, the indicator also provides additional color settings for changing the background color or changing the colors of neutral/indecisive candles, as shown in the image below.
This allows for a higher level of customization beyond the TradingView chart settings or other similar scripts that are currently available.
HOW TO USE
First, define the intraday trading session that will contain the candles to modify. The session can be limited to specific days of the week.
Next, select the parts of the candles that should be modified: Body, Borders, Wick, and/or Background.
For each of the candle parts that were enabled, you can select the colors that will be used depending on whether a candle is bullish (⇧), bearish (⇩), or neutral (⇆).
All other indicator settings will have a detailed tooltip to describe its usage and/or effect.
LIMITATIONS
The indicator is not intended to function on Daily or higher timeframes due to the intraday nature of session time windows.
The indicator cannot always automatically detect the chart type being used, therefore the user is requested to manually input the chart type via the " Chart Style " setting.
Depending on the available historical data and the selected choice for the " Portion of bar in session " setting, the indicator may not be able to update very old candles on the chart.
EXAMPLE USAGE
This section will show examples of different scenarios that the indicator can be used for.
Emphasizing a main trading session.
Defining a "Pre/post market hours background" like is available for some symbols (e.g., NASDAQ:AAPL ).
Highlighting in which bar the midnight candle occurs.
Hiding indecision bars (neutral candles).
Showing only "Regular Trading Hours" for a chart that does not have the option to toggle ETH/RTH. To achieve this, the actual chart data is hidden, and only the indicator is visible; alternatively, a 2nd instance of the indicator could change colors to match the chart background.
Using a combination of Bars and Japanese Candlesticks. Alternatively, this could be done by hiding the main chart data and using 2 instances of the indicator (one with " Chart Style " setting as Bars , and the other set to Candles ).
Using a combination of thin and thick bars on Range charts. Note: requires disabling the "Thin Bars" setting for Bar charts in the TradingView chart settings.
NOTES
If using more than one instance of this indicator on the same chart, you can use the TradingView "Save Indicator Template" feature to avoid having to re-configure the multiple indicators at a later time.
This indicator is intended to work "out-of-the-box" thanks to the behind_chart option introduced to Pine Script in October 2024. But you can always manually bring the indicator to the front just in case the color changes are not being seen (using the "More" option in the indicator status line: More > Visual Order > Bring to front ).
Many thanks to fikira for their help and inspiring me to create open source scripts.
Any feedback including bug reports or suggestions for improving the indicator (or source code itself) are always welcome in the comments section.
MMDN-Pin BarThis Pine Script code is designed to highlight Pin Bars on a TradingView chart by changing their color to yellow. A Pin Bar is a type of candlestick pattern that typically indicates a potential reversal in the market. The script uses specific conditions to identify bullish and bearish Pin Bars based on the size of the candlestick body and the length of the shadows (wicks).
1. Calculate Body and Shadows:
body: The absolute difference between the close and open prices.
upshadow: The upper shadow, calculated differently depending on whether the close is higher or lower than the open.
downshadow: The lower shadow, calculated similarly.
2. Define Pin Bar Conditions:
pinbar_h: Identifies a bullish Pin Bar if the previous candle's close is greater than its open, the previous candle's body is larger than the current candle's body, the upper shadow is more than half the size of the body, and the upper shadow is more than twice the size of the body.
pinbar_l: Identifies a bearish Pin Bar with similar conditions but for the lower shadow.
Set Pin Bar Color:
barcolor: Changes the color of the identified Pin Bars to yellow.

Strategy Myth-Busting #10 - InsideBar+EMA - [MYN]This is part of a new series we are calling "Strategy Myth-Busting" where we take open public manual trading strategies and automate them. The goal is to not only validate the authenticity of the claims but to provide an automated version for traders who wish to trade autonomously.
Our 10th one we are automating is the " 75% Win Rate High Profit Inside Bar Trading Strategy - What If You ... " strategy from " Trade Pro " who claims to have backtested this manually and achieved 11,063% profit with a 75% winrate over 100 trades. I was unable to emulate these results consistently accommodating for slippage and commission but even so, the results look promising. I was only able to achieve this win-rate with some multiple take profit staggering. Even so the markdown is above where I would normally consider comfortable (>20%).
If you know of or have a strategy you want to see myth-busted or just have an idea for one, please feel free to message me.
This strategy uses a combination of 2 open-source public indicators:
Inside Bar Ind/Alert by CMA
EMA (built-in)
Trading Rules
4 hour candles
Stop Loss at EMA Line with TP Target 1.5x the risk
Long Entry when these conditions are true
inside bar and bullish
Bar close's above 50 ema
Price action rises above high of inside bar .
Short Entry when these conditions are true
inside bar and bearish
Bar close below 50 ema
Price action falls below low of inside bar
RedK Momentum Bars (RedK Mo_Bars)Momentum Bars (Mo_Bars) offers a different way to visualize (relative) momentum - and uses some simple TA concepts to provide a different perspective into how we read momentum changes and incorporate that in our trading.
The idea here (and the script itself) is really super simple, and is (very loosely) inspired by Elder's Impulse System (EIS) - then evolved to leverage some other concepts, and to become less cluttering and "easier to read".
The construction of the Mo_Bars
---------------------------------------------
The base concept utilizes 3 moving average lines :
the first line is a relatively fast MA with a short length - acts as the main price tracking line
the second line is slightly slower than the main line - 2 to 3 bars longer length - and will by default use the open value as source - this works better to identify when the closing price starts to move faster than the open (as in, bars more frequently close higher than they open) - this line acts as the signal line - there's an added setting for an additional delay that utilizes regular WMA smoothing - the delay acts to magnify the relative displacement between the 2 MAs
for both these MA's, i choose to use the RSS MA (Lazy Line) - other MA types can be used, but the reason i used that MA type specifically is that it moves "gracefully" - and 2 Lazy Lines moving together minimizes whipsaws from small price swings - i tested with other MA types and found that the RSS has an advantage there.
the third line is a much slower MA (length 5 to 6 x the fast line) - and acts as a filter or a baseline. When we're above that line, we should favor long positions - we're in bull territory. When we're below that line we favor short positions, and we're in bear territory. Adjust this line as it suits your trading style and time frame.
(I choose to use WMA as the MA type for the filter line .. and there's a good reason for that - which i'll skip for now - but in future versions, we can add other selectable MA types. )
Using Mo_Bars
----------------------------
at a very broad level, we can use Mo_Bars similar to how we use a MACD - both are centered and unrestricted oscillators - note the difference that Mo_Bars is based on 3 MA's rather than 2.
the Mo_Bar bar length reflects the distance between the main MA and the signal MA - plotted relative to the baseline (filter line) - that means that the length of the bar represents the relative momentum between the 2 MA's - The Mo_Bars are then colored in a way that reflects increase or decrease in the value of that momentum (the visual here may have been inspired by another indicator recently published by one of our esteemed wizards - it worked perfectly - so due credits here :)
-- in simple terms, if the main MA is below the signal MA, the bar is red - and when the main MA is above the signal MA, the bar is green - a white bar usually shows up when there's a detected change of relative momentum direction (note that this is not the same as the trend direction - and that's what helps show and exploit convergence and divergence - similar to a MACD)
* in the chart above, i noted few examples of how visualizing relative momentum in this way exposes areas of chop (Mo_Bars above zero but are in red or moving down, or when Mo_Bars are below zero and green or moving up) - convergence / divergence with price - and how this can act to expose the possibility of potential changes in price action or trend.
* there's so much more to play around with this setup - and maybe if there's enough interest there can be future dedicated posts on how utilize or even to evolve it further - there's a lot of potential here, to add more filters (maybe volume based), alerts, signals...etc - so let's see the interest :)
Here's the detailed (top chart) setup that Mo_Bars is based on -- The settings for the MA's on the price charts have been matched / sync'ed with the Mo_Bars settings on the lower panel to demonstrate how the script works and how it translate the MA action on the price chart to what we see below.
As always, please play around with the indicator to get used to how it works - use it in tandem with other indicators to get proper confirmations and adjust settings to suit your own trading style, time frame, and instruments
Feedback and thoughts are always welcome --- good luck!

Security() Correction - Realtime vs. Historical BarsProblem
Pine's implementation of the security() function behaves differently in realtime vs. historical bars. Specifically, for historical bars, calling security() for a time frame (TF) larger/slower than the current chart's TF will return information about the last completed bar of the higher TF. However, for realtime bars (i.e. if you allow the chart to continue to plot in realtime), security() returns information about the presently in-progress bar of the higher TF. Clearly, this leads to discontinuity that is arbitrarily dependent upon when the user last loaded or refreshed the chart.
Solution
Fortunately, after understanding the problem, solving it is trivial: use security() normally for historical bars, but switch to explicitly requesting prior candle bars once the indicator is operating on realtime bars. I leave the source open here for any to use as they see fit. For testing, I include an input to allow switching back and forth between standard and corrected behavior.
Figure 1 displays the standard behavior we see in security() calls, and Figure 2 displays the behavior after my correction:
Figure 1: Typical security() behavior in Pine
Figure 2: Corrected security() behavior, forcing historical and realtime bars to refer to the same higher TF bar offset.
I publish this mostly as a reminder to myself, so I will not forget and then have to figure it out again next time it comes up in my scripting.
V21: Initial release.
Candle % High/Low Bar + HL Order + MA by Barty&PitPapcioWhat does the indicator show?
The "Candle % High/Low Bar + HL Order + MA by Barty&PitPapcio" indicator displays the percentage deviation of each candle’s high and low relative to its open price. The zero line represents the candle’s open — bars above zero show upward movement from the open (to high), bars below zero show downward movement (to low).
Additionally, the indicator plots a dot above or below each bar indicating which came first during the candle — the high or the low — based on data from a lower timeframe two steps below the current chart (for example, on a 1-hour chart it uses 15-minute data).
Finally, the indicator calculates and plots a user-selectable moving average (EMA, SMA, or WMA) of these "first high or low" signals, helping identify trends whether the first move is more often upwards or downwards.
Where do the data come from?
Percentage values are calculated directly from the current chart’s candles:
highPerc=(High−Open)/Open×100%,
lowPerc=(Low−Open)/Open×100%
The timing of the first high or low for each candle is retrieved from a lower timeframe, stepping down two levels from the current timeframe (e.g. from 1H to 15 min), providing better precision in detecting the order of highs and lows that may be blurred on higher timeframes.
Additional features:
Full customization of colors for bars, dots, zero line, grid, and thicknesses.
Background grid with adjustable scale and style.
Safety checks for missing lower timeframe data.
A moving average smoothing the sequence of first high/low signals to reveal directional tendencies.
Suggested strategy for technical analysis support
Identify dominant candle direction: If the dot often appears above the bar (first high), it indicates buying pressure; if below (first low), selling pressure dominates.
Use percentage deviations: Large percent bars indicate heightened volatility and potential reversal points.
Moving average on order signals: The EMA of high/low first signals smooths the noise, showing the dominant trend in the sequence of price moves, useful for filtering other signals.
Combine with other tools: This indicator can act as a directional filter on multiple timeframes, synergizing well with momentum indicators, RSI, or support/resistance levels to confirm move strength.
Lots of love, Bartosz
Strong Trend Bars (ATR-based)This is a ChatGPT pinescript meant as an indicator for detecting strength in the market. The primary function I use it for is to decide which bars to trail a stop loss beneath.
💥 Explanation of adjustable inputs:
Bull Close Threshold (default 0.6):
If set to 0.6, bull bars must close above 60% of bar height → low + 0.6 * barHeight
Bear Close Threshold (default 0.6):
If set to 0.6, bear bars must close below 40% of bar height → high - 0.6 * barHeight
This lets you experiment with tighter or looser filters. For example:
0.7 → only bars closing near the extremes will light up
0.5 → about midpoint
0.8 → very demanding, “almost full body” bars
4 Bar Momentum Reversal strategy█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "4 Bar Momentum Reversal Strategy" is a mean-reversion strategy designed to identify price reversals following a sustained downward move. It enters a long position when a reversal condition is met and exits when the price shows strength by exceeding the previous bar's high. This strategy is optimized for indices and stocks on the daily timeframe.
█ WHAT IS THE REFERENCE CLOSE?
The Reference Close is the closing price from X bars ago, where X is determined by the Lookback period. Think of it as a moving benchmark that helps the strategy assess whether prices are trending upwards or downwards relative to past performance. For example, if the Lookback is set to 4, the Reference Close is the closing price 4 bars ago (`close `).
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. LONG ENTRY
A Buy Signal is triggered when:
The close price has been lower than the Reference Close for at least `Buy Threshold` consecutive bars. This indicates a sustained downward move, suggesting a potential reversal.
The signal occurs within the specified time window (between `Start Time` and `End Time`).
2. EXIT CONDITION
A Sell Signal is generated when the current closing price exceeds the high of the previous bar (`close > high `). This indicates that the price has shown strength, potentially confirming the reversal and prompting the strategy to exit the position.
█ ADDITIONAL SETTINGS
Buy Threshold: The number of consecutive bearish bars needed to trigger a Buy Signal. Default is 4.
Lookback: The number of bars ago used to calculate the Reference Close. Default is 4.
Start Time and End Time: The time window during which the strategy is allowed to execute trades.
█ PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
This strategy is designed for trending markets with frequent reversals.
It performs best in volatile conditions where price movements are significant.
Backtesting results should be analysed to optimize the Buy Threshold and Lookback parameters for specific instruments.

Power Bar [racer8]Introduction: 🌟
The Power Bar indicator is a powerful volatility indicator that can detect power bars 💪. A power bar is just a really big price bar that forms after a price base. A price base is chart pattern consisting of many low volatility price bars (bars that have small ranges). To detect such powerful bars, the PB indicator uses the following formula:
PB = ( Absolute value of current close - previous close ) / ( Previous price range over n periods )
Looking at the formula, you can see that PB compares the current change in closing price to the n-period base pattern's range. Strong PB values are typically greater than a value of 1. If n periods = 10, the indicator will look back 11 periods. The 11 periods includes the 10-period base plus the current price bar. 10 periods is the default setting for the indicator.
After the calculation, PB is then plotted as a histogram. Along with the histogram, a horizontal dashed line is also plotted.
PB's other setting controls the dashed line's level. This level is preset at a default value of 1. The dashed line is just a way to filter out weak PB values, and to generate signals. A signal is generated when the PB histogram is above the dashed line.
Objective: 🤔
This indicator shall prove very useful to you if your main objective is to trade only the best chart pattern in the market...and the base pattern is one of the best, if not the best chart pattern that exists today. This indicator is a mechanical way of detecting the chart pattern.
Enjoy! 🥳
PineScript v4 - Forex Pin-Bar Trading StrategyPineScript v4, forex trading robot based on the commonly used bullish / bearish pin-bar piercing the moving averages strategy.
I coded this robot to stress-test the PineScript v4 language to see how advanced it is, and whether I could port a forex trading strategy from MT4 to TradingView.
In my opinion, PineScript v4 is still not a professional coding language; for example you cannot use IF-statements to modify the contents of global variables; this makes complex robot behaviour difficult to implement. In addition, it is unclear if the programmer can use nested IF-ELSE, or nested FOR within IF.
The sequence of program execution is also unclear, and although complex order entry and exit appears to function properly, I am not completely comfortable with it.

Fast MA (Period): 20 //fast moving average period
Slow MA (Period): 50 //slow moving average period
ATR (Period): 14 //average true range period

To reduce the possibility of curve-fitting, this robot was backtested on 12 popular forex currencies, as shown above. The robot was profitable on 8 out of 12 currencies, breakeven on 1, and made a loss on 3.
The default robot settings could be over-fitting for the EUR, as we can see out-sized performance for the EUR pairs, with the exception of the EURGBP. We can see that GBPJPY made the largest loss, so these two pairs could be related.
Risk Warning:
This is a forex trading strategy that involves high risk of equity loss, and backtest performance will not equal future results. You agree to use this script at your own risk.
How To Color Prior BarsExample how to color the trigger bar of the condition and n-1 prior bars using only 1 barcolor() function.
Currently when offsets are used in barcolor(), bgcolor(), plot(), plotarrow(), plotchar(), or plotshape(), the offset only works with a simple (static) integer. If series (dynamic) integers are used instead, there is not an error, but the series values are ignored. Because of this limitation of offset being constrained to using only fixed offsets, the normal way to paint 3 Black Crows would be to use 3 barcolor() functions. Since there are a known number of bars to be painted in that scenario, this can be easily accomplished.
If a condition encompassed a variable length of n bars, then the number of barcolor() functions needed to use would be unknown. How to color the trigger bar of the condition and n-1 prior bars using only 1 barcolor() function? Dual examples below solves issue but requires n "future" bars, because of this it will not paint the most recent condition in realtime and may not be applicable for use in certain realtime situations. It paints similar in behavior to how a pivot does. Special thanks to LucF and RicardoSantos for illumination!
