Crypto Scannner for Traffic Lights StrategyI allways try to make trading easier. Developing Scripts for a quick backtest and improvement of a strategy, getting alerts for entry and exit a position. Loading data to a spreadsheet is also important and takes time.
In this case finding good parameters in different markets or assets to enter in a position, is a bit exhausting. It is something you have to do everyday, and sometimes in different moments of the day.
So I manage to develop a Screener, to take a quick look at specific hours, and tell if I have a buy or sell condition in an specific asset. Obviously this is not an alert to make a trade instantaneusly, but this help you filter a lot of information in matters of seconds. Then open those specific charts and make a better analisys.
A few weeks ago, I published a scrpipt called "Traffic Lights Strategy", that uses 4 emas to get a buy or a sell condition.
It is easy to understand and use, but if you don´t want to missed some opportunities, and don't want to be look at the screen in all the time looking for them, I have here a simple solution.
This script works plotting 2 labels. The first one plots all the assets in which the condition is true (fastema > medema > slowema > filterema or fastema < medema < slowema < filterema)
The second one plots the assets were the condition is true only if happened up to 5 candles back, so you can be in time to enter a trade.
You can take the script and customize it for a different strategy or assets. I coded like this because I backtested this strategy in this specific assets, and statistics suggest that it might be profitable.
I hope this works for you. In other time I'll try to code a script for the others strategies I published.

[#ps #mft] RDT's Real Relative StrengthIndicator to use with Pine Screener for filtering watchlists with RDT's Real Relative Strength.
See r/realdaytrading for more info on the RRS.
How to:
1. Mark the indicator as "Favorite".
2. Open Pine Screener.
3. Choose a watchlist.
4. Choose this indicator.
5. Change the settings as needed.
6. Make sure you set timeframe to "5 minutes" and not the default "1 day".
If you choose "Bullish trend", then "Signal X" is a shortcut for RRS > 0 for that timeframe. Similarly "Bearish trend" for "Signal X" means RRS < 0.
Pro-tip #1: use Symbol syncing between tabs to easily go over the results.
Pro-tip #2: you can have two tabs open for "Bullish" and "Bearish" pine screeners (even synced to the same color), so you don't have to change settings everytime.
Clenow MomentumClenow Momentum Method
The Clenow Momentum Method, developed by Andreas Clenow, is a systematic, quantitative trading strategy focused on capturing medium- to long-term price trends in financial markets. Popularized through Clenow’s book, Stocks on the Move: Beating the Market with Hedge Fund Momentum Strategies, the method leverages momentum—an empirically observed phenomenon where assets that have performed well in the recent past tend to continue performing well in the near future.
Theoretical Foundation
Momentum investing is grounded in behavioral finance and market inefficiencies. Investors often exhibit herding behavior, underreact to new information, or chase trends, causing prices to trend beyond fundamental values. Clenow’s method builds on academic research, such as Jegadeesh and Titman (1993), which demonstrated that stocks with high returns over 3–12 months outperform those with low returns over similar periods.
Clenow’s approach specifically uses **annualized momentum**, calculated as the rate of return over a lookback period (typically 90 days), annualized to reflect a yearly percentage. The formula is:
Momentum=(((Close N periods agoCurrent Close)^N252)−1)×100
- Current Close: The most recent closing price.
- Close N periods ago: The closing price N periods back (e.g., 90 days).
- N: Lookback period (commonly 90 days).
- 252: Approximate trading days in a year for annualization.
This metric ranks stocks by their momentum, prioritizing those with the strongest upward trends. Clenow’s method also incorporates risk management, diversification, and volatility adjustments to enhance robustness.
Methodology
The Clenow Momentum Method involves the following steps:
1. Universe Selection:
- A broad universe of liquid stocks is chosen, often from major indices (e.g., S&P 500, Nasdaq 100) or global exchanges.
- Filters should exclude illiquid stocks (e.g., low average daily volume) or those with extreme volatility.
2. Momentum Calculation:
- Stocks are ranked based on their annualized momentum over a lookback period (typically 90 days, though 60–120 days can be common tests).
- The top-ranked stocks (e.g., top 10–20%) are selected for the portfolio.
3. Volatility Adjustment (Optional):
- Clenow sometimes adjusts momentum scores by volatility (e.g., dividing by the standard deviation of returns) to favor stocks with smoother trends.
- This reduces exposure to erratic price movements.
4. Portfolio Construction:
- A diversified portfolio of 10–25 stocks is constructed, with equal or volatility-weighted allocations.
- Position sizes are often adjusted based on risk (e.g., 1% of capital per position).
5. Rebalancing:
- The portfolio is rebalanced periodically (e.g., weekly or monthly) to maintain exposure to high-momentum stocks.
- Stocks falling below a momentum threshold are replaced with higher-ranked candidates.
6. Risk Management:
- Stop-losses or trailing stops may be applied to limit downside risk.
- Diversification across sectors reduces concentration risk.
Implementation in TradingView
Key features include:
- Customizable Lookback: Users can adjust the lookback period in pinescript (e.g., 90 days) to align with Clenow’s methodology.
- Visual Cues: Background colors (green for positive, red for negative momentum) and a zero line help identify trend strength.
- Integration with Screeners: TradingView’s stock screener can filter high-momentum stocks, which can then be analyzed with the custom indicator.
Strengths
1. Simplicity: The method is straightforward, relying on a single metric (momentum) that’s easy to calculate and interpret.
2. Empirical Support: Backed by decades of academic research and real-world hedge fund performance.
3. Adaptability: Applicable to stocks, ETFs, or other asset classes, with flexible lookback periods.
4. Risk Management: Diversification and periodic rebalancing reduce idiosyncratic risk.
5. TradingView Integration: Pine Script implementation enables real-time visualization, enhancing decision-making for stocks like NVDA or SPY.
Limitations
1. Mean Reversion Risk: Momentum can reverse sharply in bear markets or during sector rotations, leading to drawdowns.
2. Transaction Costs: Frequent rebalancing increases trading costs, especially for retail traders with high commissions. This is not as prevalent with commission free trading becoming more available.
3. Overfitting Risk: Over-optimizing lookback periods or filters can reduce out-of-sample performance.
4. Market Conditions: Underperforms in low-momentum or highly volatile markets.
Practical Applications
The Clenow Momentum Method is ideal for:
Retail Traders: Use TradingView’s screener to identify high-momentum stocks, then apply the Pine Script indicator to confirm trends.
Portfolio Managers: Build diversified momentum portfolios, rebalancing monthly to capture trends.
Swing Traders: Combine with volume filters to target short-term breakouts in high-momentum stocks.
Cross-Platform Workflow: Integrate with Python scanners to rank stocks, then visualize on TradingView for trade execution.
Comparison to Other Strategies
Vs. Minervini’s VCP: Clenow’s method is purely quantitative, while Minervini’s Volatility Contraction Pattern (your April 11, 2025 query) combines momentum with chart patterns. Clenow is more systematic but less discretionary.
Vs. Mean Reversion: Momentum bets on trend continuation, unlike mean reversion strategies that target oversold conditions.
Vs. Value Investing: Momentum outperforms in bull markets but may lag value strategies in recovery phases.
Conclusion
The Clenow Momentum Method is a robust, evidence-based strategy that capitalizes on price trends while managing risk through diversification and rebalancing. Its simplicity and adaptability make it accessible to retail traders, especially when implemented on platforms like TradingView with custom Pine Script indicators. Traders must be mindful of transaction costs, mean reversion risks, and market conditions. By combining Clenow’s momentum with volume filters and alerts, you can optimize its application for swing or position trading.
GROK - 40 Day High BreakoutTitle: GROK - Customizable High Breakout Detector
To scan base breakout with Pine Screener
Description:
This Pine Script indicator identifies high breakout patterns based on a user-defined lookback period. By default, it checks for a breakout of the 40-day high, but the period can be adjusted to suit your trading strategy. Key features include:
Custom Lookback Period: Easily modify the number of days for high breakout detection. Lookback period is length of base you want to scan using pine screener.
Visual Alerts: Displays a green triangle above the price bar when a breakout is detected.
Alert Conditions: Built-in alert notifications for automated breakout detection.
Screener Compatibility: Plots breakout signals as a histogram for screener use.
This script is ideal for traders looking to identify strong breakout patterns and incorporate them into their strategies.
How to Use:
Adjust the lookback period in the settings to match your desired breakout criteria.
Add alerts for automated notifications when a breakout is detected.
Use the visual markers and histogram to analyze breakout patterns on your chart.
Correlation AnalysisAs the name suggests, this indicator is a market correlation analysis tool.
It contains two main features:
- The Curve: represents the historic correlation coefficient between the current chart and the “Reference Market” input from the settings menu. It aims to give more depth to the current correlation values found in the second feature.
- The Screener: this second feature displays all correlation coefficient values between the (max) 20 markets inputs. You can use it to create several screeners for several market types (crypto, forex, metals, etc.) or even replicate your current portfolio of investments and gauge the correlation of its components.
Aside from these two previous features, you can visually plot the variation rate from one bar to another along with the covariance coefficient (both used in the correlation calculation). Finally, a simple “signal” moving average can be applied to the correlation coefficient .
I might add alerts to this script or even turn it into a strategy to do some backtesting. Do not hesitate to contact me or comment below if this is something you would be interested in or if you have any suggestions for improvement.

Relative Volume & RSI PopThis is a basic idea/script designed to take a breakout trade by taking advantage of volume spikes when price/strength is extended (either long or short).
The script only utilises two indicators, the Relative Volume (RV) and the Relative Strength Index (RSI). The script allows the user to select a RSI value between 69 up to 100 for a long trade and between 35 down to 0 for short trade and then pair this with RV from 0 - 10. The period for both the RSI and RV can also be amended by the user but I found in most cases there was no benefit gained by changing away from normal "14" period lookback. The script typically only has small draw downs as the script is designed to exit the trade when the RSI returns back to "normalised" level, therefore the trades are generally quite short. The exit condition for a long trade is when RSI crosses back below 69 (which is why you cannot enter a long below this value) and for a short the, trade will close when RSI crosses back above 35 (which is why you cannot enter a short above this value). These exit values are locked.
By allowing RSI value to go all the way up to "100" on the long side and "0" on the short side this in effect is a way of eliminating the script from taking either longs or shorts if lets say you wanted to back test the script for long only spikes or short only spike. E.G. By setting RSI upper value to "75" the RV to "1" and RSI lower value to "0" then no short trades will not be taken in your back test as the RSI never really gets down to zero.
I put this together with meme stocks in mind and back tested it on day charts for AMC and then a few trending style stocks too. It typically worked best as long only and with RSI settings between 71 - 75 and RV at 1 or 1.5. I also found it had okay results on some lower 1hr timeframe futures markets and weekly time frames too (albeit trades were few and far between on weekly timeframe).
The beauty of such a basic script you could easily set up a trading view screener to look for these opportunities everyday and perhaps even add in an ADX filter on the screener to see if the trend is increasing. Then use this script to run a back test on the stocks that you've selected from the screener.
Phaser [QuantVue]The Phaser indicator is a tool to help identify inflection points by looking at price relative to past prices across multiple timeframes and assets.
Phase 1 looks for the price to be higher or lower than the closing price of the bar 4 bars earlier and is complete when 9 consecutive bars meet this criterion.
A completed Phase 1 is considered perfect when the highs (bearish) or lows (bullish) have been exceeded from bars 6 and 7 of the phase.
A bullish setup requires 9 consecutive closes less than the close 4 bars earlier.
A bearish setup requires 9 consecutive closes greater than the close 4 bars earlier.
Phase 2 begins once Phase 1 has been completed. Phase 2 compares the current price to the high or low of two bars earlier.
Unlike Phase 1, Phase 2 does not require the count to be consecutive.
Phase 2 is considered complete when 13 candles have met the criteria.
An important aspect to Phase 2 is the relationship between bar 13 and bar 8.
To ensure the end of Phase 2 is in line with the existing trend, the high or low of bar 13 is compared to the close of bar 8.
A bullish imperfect 13 occurs when the current price is less than the low of 2 bars earlier, but the current low is greater than the close of bar 8 in Phase 2.
A bearish imperfect 13 occurs when the current price is greater than the high of 2 bars earlier, but the current high is less than the close of bar 8 in Phase 2.
Phase 2 does not need to go until it is complete. A Phase 2 can be canceled if the price closes above or below the highest or lowest price from Phase 1.

TechnicalRating█ OVERVIEW
This library is a Pine Script™ programmer’s tool for incorporating TradingView's well-known technical ratings within their scripts. The ratings produced by this library are the same as those from the speedometers in the technical analysis summary and the "Rating" indicator in the Screener , which use the aggregate biases of 26 technical indicators to calculate their results.
█ CONCEPTS
Ensemble analysis
Ensemble analysis uses multiple weaker models to produce a potentially stronger one. A common form of ensemble analysis in technical analysis is the usage of aggregate indicators together in hopes of gaining further market insight and reinforcing trading decisions.
Technical ratings
Technical ratings provide a simplified way to analyze financial markets by combining signals from an ensemble of indicators into a singular value, allowing traders to assess market sentiment more quickly and conveniently than analyzing each constituent separately. By consolidating the signals from multiple indicators into a single rating, traders can more intuitively and easily interpret the "technical health" of the market.
Calculating the rating value
Using a variety of built-in TA functions and functions from our ta library, this script calculates technical ratings for moving averages, oscillators, and their overall result within the `calcRatingAll()` function.
The function uses the script's `calcRatingMA()` function to calculate the moving average technical rating from an ensemble of 15 moving averages and filters:
• Six Simple Moving Averages and six Exponential Moving Averages with periods of 10, 20, 30, 50, 100, and 200
• A Hull Moving Average with a period of 9
• A Volume-Weighted Moving Average with a period of 20
• An Ichimoku Cloud with a conversion line length of 9, base length of 26, and leading span B length of 52
The function uses the script's `calcRating()` function to calculate the oscillator technical rating from an ensemble of 11 oscillators:
• RSI with a period of 14
• Stochastic with a %K period of 14, a smoothing period of 3, and a %D period of 3
• CCI with a period of 20
• ADX with a DI length of 14 and an ADX smoothing period of 14
• Awesome Oscillator
• Momentum with a period of 10
• MACD with fast, slow, and signal periods of 12, 26, and 9
• Stochastic RSI with an RSI period of 14, a %K period of 14, a smoothing period of 3, and a %D period of 3
• Williams %R with a period of 14
• Bull Bear Power with a period of 50
• Ultimate Oscillator with fast, middle, and slow lengths of 7, 14, and 28
Each indicator is assigned a value of +1, 0, or -1, representing a bullish, neutral, or bearish rating. The moving average rating is the mean of all ratings that use the `calcRatingMA()` function, and the oscillator rating is the mean of all ratings that use the `calcRating()` function. The overall rating is the mean of the moving average and oscillator ratings, which ranges between +1 and -1. This overall rating, along with the separate MA and oscillator ratings, can be used to gain insight into the technical strength of the market. For a more detailed breakdown of the signals and conditions used to calculate the indicators' ratings, consult our Help Center explanation.
Determining rating status
The `ratingStatus()` function produces a string representing the status of a series of ratings. The `strongBound` and `weakBound` parameters, with respective default values of 0.5 and 0.1, define the bounds for "strong" and "weak" ratings.
The rating status is determined as follows:
Rating Value Rating Status
< -strongBound Strong Sell
< -weakBound Sell
-weakBound to weakBound Neutral
> weakBound Buy
> strongBound Strong Buy
By customizing the `strongBound` and `weakBound` values, traders can tailor the `ratingStatus()` function to fit their trading style or strategy, leading to a more personalized approach to evaluating ratings.
Look first. Then leap.
█ FUNCTIONS
This library contains the following functions:
calcRatingAll()
Calculates 3 ratings (ratings total, MA ratings, indicator ratings) using the aggregate biases of 26 different technical indicators.
Returns: A 3-element tuple: ( [(float) ratingTotal, (float) ratingOther, (float) ratingMA ].

Linear Reg CandlesThe provided Pine Script is a TradingView script for creating a technical analysis indicator called "Humble LinReg Candles." This script includes features such as linear regression for open, high, low, and close prices, signal smoothing with simple or exponential moving averages, and a trailing stop based on Average True Range (ATR). Additionally, the script contains a screener section to display signals for a list of specified symbols.
Here is a breakdown of the script:
Indicator Settings:
It defines various input parameters such as signal smoothing length, linear regression settings, and options for using simple moving averages.
Linear regression is applied to open, high, low, and close prices based on user-defined settings.
ATR Trailing Stop:
It calculates the Average True Range (ATR) and uses it to determine a trailing stop for buy and sell signals.
Signals are generated based on whether the close price is above or below the ATR trailing stop.
Plotting:
The script plots the calculated signal on the chart using the plot function.
Buy and Sell Conditions:
Buy and sell conditions are defined based on the relationship between the close price and the ATR trailing stop.
Plot shapes and bar colors are used to visually represent buy and sell signals on the chart.
Alerts:
Alerts are triggered when buy or sell conditions are met.
Screener Section:
The script defines a screener section to display a watchlist of symbols with long and short signals.
The watchlist includes a set of predefined symbols with corresponding long and short signals.
Table Theme Settings:
The script allows customization of the table theme, including background color, frame color, and text color.
The size and location of the table on the chart can also be customized.
Screener Function:
A function getSignal is defined to determine long and short signals for each symbol in the watchlist.
The getSym function is used to extract the symbol name from the symbol string.
Dashboard Creation:
The script creates a table (dashboard) to display long and short signals for the symbols in the watchlist.
The table includes headers for "Long Signal" and "Short Signal" and lists the symbols with corresponding signals.
Overall, the script combines technical analysis indicators and a screener to help traders identify potential buy and sell signals for a set of specified symbols.

Enhanced Buy/Sell Pressure, Volume, and Trend Bar analysisEnhanced Buy/Sell Pressure, Volume, and Trend Bar Analysis Indicator
Overview
This indicator is designed to help traders identify buy and sell pressure, volume changes, and overall trend direction in the market. It combines multiple concepts like price action, volume, and trend analysis, candlestick anaysis to provide a comprehensive view of market dynamics. The visual elements are intuitive, making it suitable for traders at different levels. This indicator works together with Enhanced Pressure MTF Screener which is a screener based of this indicator to make it easier to see Bullish/Bearish pressures and trend across multiple timeframes.
Image below: is the Enhanced Buy/Sell Pressure, Volume, and Trend Bar Analysis with the Enhanced Pressure MTF Screener indicator both active together.
Key Features
1.Buy/Sell Pressure Identification
Buy Pressure: Calculated based on price movement where the close price is higher than the opening price.
Sell Pressure: Calculated when the closing price is equal to or lower than the opening price.These pressures help you understand whether buyers or sellers are more dominant for each bar.
2.Volume Analysis
Normalized Volume: Volume data is normalized, making it easier to compare volume levels over different periods.
Volume Histogram: The volume is also presented as a histogram for easy visualization, showing whether the current volume is higher or lower compared to the average.
3.Simplified Coloring Option
You can choose to simplify the coloring of bars to reflect the dominant pressure: green for bullish pressure and red for bearish pressure. This makes it visually easier to identify who is in control. When simplified coloring is disabled, the bars' colors will represent the combined effect of buy and sell pressure.
4.Heikin-Ashi Candles for Pressure Calculation
The indicator includes an option to use Heikin-Ashi candles instead of traditional candles to calculate buy and sell pressure. Heikin-Ashi candles are known for smoothing out price action and providing a clearer trend representation.
5.Trend Background Coloring
This feature uses exponential moving averages (EMAs) to determine the trend:
Short-Term EMA vs. Long-Term EMA: When the short-term EMA is above the long-term EMA, the trend is considered bullish, and vice versa.
The background color changes based on the identified trend: green for an uptrend and red for a downtrend. This feature helps visualize the overall market direction at a glance.
6.Signals for Key Price Actions
The indicator plots various symbols to signal important price movements:
Bullish Close (▲): Indicates a strong upward movement where the close price crosses above the open.
Bearish Close (▼): Indicates a downward movement where the close price falls below the open.
Higher High (•): Highlights new highs compared to previous bars, useful for confirming an uptrend.
Lower Low (•): Highlights lower lows compared to previous bars, which can indicate a downtrend or bearish pressure.
Calculations Explained
1.Buy and Sell Pressure Calculation
The buy pressure is determined by the price range (high - low) if the closing price is above the opening price, indicating an increase in value.
The sell pressure is similarly calculated when the closing price is equal to or below the opening price.
The indicator uses the Average True Range (ATR) for normalization. Normalizing helps you compare pressure across different periods, regardless of market volatility.
2.Volume Normalization
Volume Normalization: To make volume comparable across different periods, the indicator normalizes it using the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of volume over a user-defined length.
Volume Histogram: The histogram provides a clear representation of volume changes compared to the average, making it easier to spot unusual activity that may indicate market shifts.
3.Combined Pressure Calculation
The indicator calculates a combined pressure value by subtracting sell pressure from buy pressure.
When combined pressure is positive, buying is dominant, and when negative, selling is dominant. This helps in visually understanding the ongoing momentum.
4.Trend Calculation
The indicator uses two EMAs to determine the trend:
Short-Term EMA (default 14-period) to capture recent price movements.
Long-Term EMA (default 50-period) to provide a broader trend perspective.
By comparing these EMAs on a higher timeframe, the indicator can identify whether the trend is up or down, making it easier for traders to align their trades with the larger market movement.
Inputs and Customization
The indicator provides several options for customization, allowing you to adjust it to your preferences:
SMA Length: Determines the lookback period for moving averages and volume normalization. A longer length provides more smoothing, whereas a shorter length makes the indicator more responsive.
Buy/Sell/Volume Colors: Customize the colors used to represent buying, selling, and volume to suit your preferences.
Heikin Ashi Option: Toggle between using Heikin Ashi or traditional OHLC (Open-High-Low-Close) candles for pressure calculations.
Trend Timeframe and EMA Periods: You can choose different timeframes and EMA periods for trend analysis to suit your trading strategy.
How to Use This Indicator
Identifying Market Momentum: Use the buy/sell pressure columns to see which side (buyers or sellers) is in control. Positive pressure combined with green color indicates strong buying, while red indicates selling.
Volume Confirmation: Check the volume area plot and histogram. High volume coupled with strong pressure is a sign of conviction, meaning the current move has backing from market participants.
Trend Identification: The trend background color helps identify the overall trend direction. Trade in the direction of the trend (e.g., take long positions during a green background).
Signal Indicators: The plotted symbols like "Bullish Close" and "Bearish Close" provide visual signals of key price actions, useful for timing entry or exit points.
Practical use Example
Scenario: The market is consolidating, and you see alternating green and red bars.
Action: Wait for a consistent sequence of green bars (buy pressure) along with a green background (uptrend) to consider going long, although you can go long without having a green background, the background adds confirmation layer.
Scenario: The market has several bearish closes (red ▼ symbols) accompanied by increasing volume.
Action: This could indicate strong selling pressure. If the background also turns red, it might be a good time to exit long positions or consider shorting.
Higher timeframe pressure and volume: Another way to use the indicator is to check buy/sell volume and pressure of the higher timeframe say weekly or daily or any timeframe you consider higher, once you’ve identified or feel confident in which direction the bar is going along with the full picture of trend, you can go to the lower timeframe and wait for it to sync with the higher timeframe to consider a long or a short. It is also easier to see when markets sync up by also applying the Enhanced Pressure MTF Screener which works in companion to this indicator.
Visual Cues and Interpretation
Combined Pressure Plot: The green and red column plot at the bottom of the chart represents the dominance between buying and selling. Tall green bars signify strong buying, while tall red bars indicate selling dominance.
Trend Background: Helps visualize the overall direction without manually drawing trend lines. When the background turns green, it generally indicates that the shorter-term moving average has crossed above the longer-term average—a sign of a bullish trend.

Always, I am happy to share my creations with you all for free. If you guys have cool ideas you would like to share, or suggestions for improvements the comment is below and I hope this overview gave an idea of how to use the indicator :D
Nifty36ScannerThis code is written for traders to be able to automatically scan 36 stocks of their choice for MACD , EMA200 + SuperTrend and Half Trend . Traders can be on any chart, and if they keep this scanner/indicator on , it will start displaying stocks meeting scanning criteria on the same window without having to go to Screener section and running it again and again. It will save time for traders and give them real time signals.
Indicators for scanning stocks are:
MACD
EMA200
Supertrend
HalfTrend - originally developed by EVERGET
Combination of EMA200 crossover/under and MACD crossover/under has worked well for me for long time, so using this combination as one of the criteria to
Scan the stocks. Using Everget's Half Trend method confirms the signal given by MACD , EMA200 and Supertrend Crossover.
I have added 36 of my favourite stocks from Nifty 50 lot. Users of this script can use the same stocks or change it by going into the settings of this scanner.
The Code is divided into 3 Sections
Section 1: Accepting input from users as boolean so that they can scan on the basis of one of the criteria or any combination of the criteria.
Section 2: "Screener function" to calculate Buy/ Sell on the basis of scanning criteria selected y the user.
screener=>
= ta.supertrend(2.5,10)
Buy/Sell on the basis of Supertrend crossing Close of the candle
//using ta.macd function to calculate MACD and Signal
= ta.macd(close, 12, 26, 9)
using HalfTrend indicator to calculate Buy/Sell signals , removed all the plotting functions from the code of Half Trend
Bringing Stock Symbols in S series variables
s1=input.symbol('NSE:NIFTY1!', title='Symbol1', group="Nifty50List", inline='0')
Assigning Bull/Bear ( Buy/Sell) signals to each stocks selected
=request.security(s1, tf, screener())
Assign BUY to all the stocks showing Buy signals using
buy_label1:= c1?buy_label1+str.tostring(s1)+'\n': buy_label1
Follow the same process for SELL Signals
Section 3: Plotting labels for the BUY/SELL result on the in terms of label for any stocks meeting the criteria with deletion of any previous signals to avoid clutter on the chart with so many signals generated in each candle
Display Buy siganaling stocks in teh form of label using Label.new function with parameters as follows:
barindex
close as series
color
textcolor
style as label_up,
yloc =price
textalign=left
Delete all the previous labels
label.delete(lab_buy )
