Price Cross ━ [whvntr]This oscillator is an attractive way to view hidden price divergence... The formula originated from the Lark, but I have cleanly displayed this information. When the two moving averages (ema) cross with a simple moving average, you find the hidden price divergence. What kind of market should you use this in? It works well when a trend is already established.
Disclaimer: This indicator does not constitute investment advice. Trade at your own
risk with this method of identifying hidden price divergence.

Volume Crop ━ Hidden Volume Divergence [whvntr] Volume Divergence
• Formula originated from: "Hidden Price Divergence" (circles) by TheLark. I did two things to harness its
effectiveness:
• Firstly, I developed a unique way to filter out the divergence signals that were appearing on both sides of the
midline. This filter will be known as the "Midline Tool" . It filters out a lot of the false signals commonly
associated with oscillators.
• Then, I modified the default format from Price to Volume.
• The midline formula "Midline Tool" was developed by me . It adjusts in the thousands since it's volume.
Let me know in the comments if you would rater have a smaller step value than 10,000. How does it work?
Crossover then Crossunder, the arrows only appear during the first sign of hidden volume divergence once
crossing the midline. Normally, these signs appear on both side of the midline both bearish and bullish no
matter if it's on an oversold or overbought side of the spectrum... Also, let
me know in the comments if you would like for me to release an oscillator version of this
indicator for co-witnessing.
Features:
• Volume divergence
• Midline Tool©
• Disclaimer: This indicator does not constitute investment advice. Trade at your own risk with the investments
you can afford to lose because all financial investments have risks and this is not a
guarantee that the volume divergence will be 100% all the time.
RSI and MA with Trailing Stop Loss and Take Profit (by Coinrule)The relative strength index is a momentum indicator used in technical analysis. It measures the speed and magnitude of a coin's recent price changes to evaluate overvalued or undervalued conditions in the price of that coin. The RSI is displayed as an oscillator (a line graph essentially) on a scale of zero to 100. When the RSI reaches oversold levels, it can provide a signal to go long. When the RSI reaches overbought levels, it can mark a good exit point or alternatively, an entry for a short position. Traditionally, an RSI reading of 70 or above indicates an overbought situation. A reading of 30 or below indicates an oversold condition.
A moving average (MA) calculates the average of a selected range of prices, usually closing prices, by the number of periods in that range. Essentially it is used to help smooth out price data by creating a constantly updated average price.
The Strategy enters and closes trades when the following conditions are met:
Entry Conditions:
RSI is greater than 50
MA9 is greater than MA50
RSI increases by 5
Exit Conditions:
Price increases by 1% trailing
Price decreases by 2% trailing
This strategy is back-tested from 1 January 2022 to simulate how the strategy would work in a bear market. The strategy provides good returns.
The strategy assumes each order is using 30% of the available coins to make the results more realistic and to simulate you only ran this strategy on 30% of your holdings. A trading fee of 0.1% is also taken into account and is aligned to the base fee applied on Binance.
VWMA/SMA 3Commas BotThis strategy utilizes two pairs of different Moving Averages, two Volume-Weighted Moving Averages (VWMA) and two Simple Moving Averages (SMA).
There is a FAST and SLOW version of each VWMA and SMA.
The concept behind this strategy is that volume is not taken into account when calculating a Simple Moving Average.
Simple Moving Averages are often used to determine the dominant direction of price movement and to help a trader look past any short-term volatility or 'noise' from price movement, and instead determine the OVERALL direction of price movement so that one can trade in that direction (trend-following) or look for opportunities to trade AGAINST that direction (fading).
By comparing the different movements of a Volume-Weighted Moving Average against a Simple Moving Average of the same length, a trader can get a better picture of what price movements are actually significant, helping to reduce false signals that might occur from only using Simple Moving Averages.
The practical applications of this strategy are identifying dominant directional trends. These can be found when the Volume Weighted Moving Average is moving in the same direction as the Simple Moving Average, and ideally, tracking above it.
This would indicate that there is sufficient volume supporting an uptrend or downtrend, and thus gives traders additional confirmation to potentially look for a trade in that direction.
One can initially look for the Fast VWMA to track above the Fast SMA as your initial sign of bullish confirmation (reversed for downtrending markets). Then, when the Fast VWMA crosses over the Slow SMA, one can determine additional trend strength. Finally, when the Slow VWMA crosses over the Slow SMA, one can determine that the trend is truly strong.
Traders can choose to look for trade entries at either of those triggers, depending on risk tolerance and risk appetite.
Furthermore, this strategy can be used to identify divergence or weakness in trending movements. This is very helpful for identifying potential areas to exit one's trade or even look for counter-trend trades (reversals).
These moments occur when the Volume-Weighted Moving Average, either fast or slow, begins to trade in the opposite direction as their Simple Moving Average counterpart.
For instance, if price has been trending upwards for awhile, and the Fast VWMA begins to trade underneath the Fast SMA, this is an indication that volume is beginning to falter. Uptrends need appropriate volume to continue moving with momentum, so when we see volume begin to falter, it can be a potential sign of an upcoming reversal in trend.
Depending on how quickly one wants to enter into a movement, one could look for crosses of the Fast VWMA under/over the Fast SMA, crosses of the Fast VWMA over/under the Slow SMA, or crosses over/under of the Slow VWMA and the Slow SMA.
This concept was originally published here on TradingView by ProfitProgrammers.
Here is a link to his original indicator script:
I have added onto this concept by:
converting the original indicator into a strategy tester for backtesting
adding the ability to conveniently test long or short strategies, or both
adding the ability to calculate dynamic position sizes
adding the ability to calculate dynamic stop losses and take profit levels using the Average True Range
adding the ability to exit trades based on overbought/oversold crosses of the Stochastic RSI
conveniently switch between different thresholds or speeds of the Moving Average crosses to test different strategies on different asset classes
easily hook this strategy up to 3Commas for automation via their DCA bot feature

Linear EDCA v1.2Strategy Description:
Linear EDCA (Linear Enhanced Dollar Cost Averaging) is an enhanced version of the DCA fixed investment strategy. It has the following features:
1. Take the 1100-day SMA as a reference indicator, enter the buy range below the moving average, and enter the sell range above the moving average
2. The order to buy and sell is carried out at different "speed", which are set with two linear functions, and you can change the slope of the linear function to achieve different trading position control purposes
3. This fixed investment is a low-frequency strategy and only works on a daily level cycle
----------------
Strategy backtest performance:
BTCUSD (September 2014~September 2022): Net profit margin 26378%, maximum floating loss 47.12% (2015-01-14)

How the strategy works:
Buying Conditions:
The closing price of the day is below the 1100 SMA, and the ratio of buying positions is determined by the deviation of the closing price from the moving average and the buySlope parameter
Selling Conditions:
The closing price of the day is above the 1100 SMA, and the ratio of the selling position is determined by the deviation of the closing price and the moving average and the sellSlope parameter
special case:
When the sellOffset parameter>0, it will maintain a small buy within a certain range above the 1100 SMA to avoid prematurely starting to sell
The maximum ratio of a single buy position does not exceed defInvestRatio * maxBuyRate

Simple RSI and SMA Long and Short (by Coinrule)The relative strength index ( RSI ) is a momentum indicator used in technical analysis . RSI measures the speed and magnitude of a security's recent price changes to evaluate overvalued or undervalued conditions in the price of that security. The RSI is displayed as an oscillator (a line graph) on a scale of zero to 100. The RSI can do more than point to overbought and oversold securities. It can also indicate securities that may be primed for a trend reversal or corrective pullback in price. It can signal when to buy and sell. Traditionally, an RSI reading of 70 or above indicates an overbought situation. A reading of 30 or below indicates an oversold condition.
A simple moving average ( SMA ) calculates the average of a selected range of prices, usually closing prices, by the number of periods in that range.
The Strategy enters and closes the trade when the following conditions are met:
LONG
SMA100 is greater than SMA150
RSI is greater than 50
SHORT
SMA100 is less than SMA150
RSI is less than 50
When a long position is opened, it remains open until the conditions for a short are met at which point the long position is closed and the short position is opened. Then, when the conditions for the long position are met, the short will be closed and a long will be opened.
This strategy is back tested from 1 January 2022 to simulate how the strategy would work in a bear market. The strategy provides good returns.
The strategy assumes each order is using 30% of the available coins to make the results more realistic and to simulate you only ran this strategy on 30% of your holdings. A trading fee of 0.1% is also taken into account and is aligned to the base fee applied on Binance.
Moving Average - fade when crossed [cajole]This indicator simply provides a moving average (SMA, EMA, etc. can be selected) which hides itself when touched by the price.
Two potential uses:
Set the growth rate to be slow, to highlight only very rapid moves on a chart.
Use the default settings and change the averaging period until the MA line remains bright. This MA can then act as a good trailing stop for the specific security.
TradingView does not remember indicator settings for specific charts. Consider adding a text label to your chart after you identify the ideal trailing stop. Similar trailing-stop methods are recommended by Kristjan Qullamagie is identical to Jesse Stine's "magic line" concept .
Ichimoku MA Up & DownIchimoku and MA use the default.
It is repainted because it uses a moving average line.
A marker is only true if it was created after the candle closed.
The principle is too simple.
Please enjoy using it.
- Up : Conversion Line > MA #1 and Base Line > MA #2
It is an uptrend. The short-term moving average should be above the conversion line. And the long-term should be above the Base Line.
- Down : Conversion Line < MA #1 and Base Line < MA #2
It's a downtrend. The short-term moving average should be below the conversion line. And the long-term should be below the Base Line.
You can get better results if you use a momentum indicator like RSI.
Thank you.
Tunable SWMADissected the standard SWMA function and added options for user to change just about every part of it. Weights ,Lookback ,Source can all be changed in the settings.
Green is the standard SWMA, Using the Input value selected.(MAs/LRC/VWAP)
Red is the tuned SWMA, with the option of applying a final Output filter (MAs/LRC/VWAP). Uses 8 datapoints instead of 4 for the default.
Customization can really help expand upon the standard SWMA I find. Enjoy tuning to your hearts content
Davin's 10/200MA Pullback on SPY Strategy v2.0Strategy:
Using 10 and 200 Simple moving averages, we capitalize on price pullbacks on a general uptrend to scalp 1 - 5% rebounds. 200 MA is used as a general indicator for bullish sentiment, 10 MA is used to identify pullbacks in the short term for buy entries.
An optional bonus: market crash of 20% from 52 days high is regarded as a buy the dip signal.
An optional bonus: can choose to exit on MA crossovers using 200 MA as reference MA (etc. Hard stop on 50 cross 200)
Recommended Ticker: SPY 1D (I have so far tested on SPY and other big indexes only, other stocks appear to be too volatile to use the same short period SMA parameters effectively) + AAPL 4H
How it works:
Buy condition is when:
- Price closes above 200 SMA
- Price closes below 10 SMA
- Price dumps at least 20% (additional bonus contrarian buy the dip option)
Entry is on the next opening market day the day after the buy condition candle was fulfilled.
Sell Condition is when:
- Prices closes below 10 SMA
- Hard stop at 15% drawdown from entry price (adjustable parameter)
- Hard stop at medium term and long term MA crossovers (adjustable parameters)
So far this strategy has been pretty effective for me, feel free to try it out and let me know in the comments how you found :)
Feel free to suggest new strategy ideas for discussion and indicator building
Swing RibbonA configurable fast and slow moving average combined to help visualize the current trend and potential changes in trend.
Allows for specifying a fixed set of minutes or days instead of just bars so that the visualization is similar when changing time-frames.
Altered OBV On MACDHere is another strategy along with an indicator that is already published for everyone to use wisely in the tradingview platform. The strategy is not very planned to highlight where to enter and when to exit as it is just a system. So, it is always good practice to follow the signal of simple moving averages and that is the reason you could find those color lines in this strategy as well.
As the indicator signals the entry point, it is wise to decide what the SMA (21, 50, 90, 200) signals us. When the price oscillated around the higher timeframe of moving averages, then it is wise to wait before entering.
OBV:
The OBV is perfect indicator to understand the strength of the particular stock. As the strength increase, the trend of the stock goes high along with price. But, the OBV is considered only with close of previous close which is to make sure the double confirmation on the price to accumulate the volume .
Altered OBV:
So, here is the altered OBV, which basically consider the close of previous close and also buying interested of the day when close is higher than open.
MACD:
I always admire the magic of MACD with pre-defined timeframe. Now, this MACD applied on top of altered OBV to signal us the moving of the ticker strength.
Long:
The long entry occurs when the MACD on Altered OBV signal bullish and the same time the MACD on close already bullish.
Short
The short denotes when the MACD on Altered OBV signal bearish and at the same time the MACD on close already bearish.
I hope this would help on your swing trading strategy.
Happy Investing.
MA20 Hi-Lo-Close Magic BandThis is an improvement over my previous MA20 High Low Magic Band, as it keeps a central 20 MA reference point. So it can help find the up from MA20 lows and down from MA20 highs resisted or supported by MA20 average before final entry. Usable in any time frame of choice - 15m, 30m, Hourly or Daily. In the Hourly / Daily time frame, the signal used with the volume data may work in 6/10 events or more ... Happy trading!
(E)Moving Average Ribbon High/LowThis is a slight modification of the standard Moving Average Ribbon. This script will take the 200 EMA and SMA with source the high and low, not the close.
This band will act as a support and resistance zone and should be used as a confluence with other indicators or support/resistance lines.
I got inspired to create this one, by the YT video "FINALLY! The 200 EMA Confluence Trading Strategy You’ve Been Waiting For" by The Secret Mindset.
In his video he takes only the 200EMA, but this script will take by default also the SMA into account.
In the settings you still can adapt as you wish ;-)
Happy trading!
RSI Influenced AverageUsing a couple of different ways of calculating (User selectable) the standard rsi oscillator is merged with a moving average for a slight variation. Plenty of options in the settings to play with like changing rsi length, MA length, lookback lengths, MA type, and much more. For Use with other moving averages ideally, or as a standalone indicator.
Trend Breakout high/low #1What is the Trend Breakout high/low #1?
This script uses the high/low of each fixed time period as a conditional judgment, and when the high/low is broken as a buy/sell signal, trying to capture a trend.
How to use this script?
Start date and Stop date: You can choose the date of the test.
Trading cycle: Selected time period is used as the basis for determining the high/low and is limited to one trade only.
Stop range: This value will calculate the stop loss range. Set 50-100 that is better
Fixed mode: Fixed of lots per transaction.
---Additional Functions---
Reversal mode: Reversing the buy and sell signals, may be useful in certain situations.
Wighted mode: Increased profitability under certain conditions
When win & When lose:Judgment when there is an ongoing loss/profit as a condition, may be useful in certain situations.
Use closing price: Use the closing price breakout high/low as a conditional judgment, but this function sometimes fails.
Notes:
Trading cycle and your chart time period can't be set too close,that will result repainting.
Stop range can't be set too small,that will result repainting either.

IS 200EMABB long buy and sellThis script backtested some stocks, it's giving soft buy and strong buy signals,
I am using Bollinger band and 200 EMA,
Strong Buy :- If price is above 200 ema and cross over 10d ema and sma setup with BB,
Buy :- If price is below 200 ema and cross over 10d ema and sma setup with BB,
Strong Sell :- If price is below 200 ema and cross over ema and sma with input setup for BB
Sell :- If price is above 200 ema and cross over ema and sma with input setup for BB
Don't consider it as buy and sell call, do your own research ,i did it according to my experience and learning.
Thank you
Moving Average ChannelThe Moving Average Channel (MAC) is a concept developed by Jake Bernstein, Speaker at Wealth365®, where the 10 period SMA of the High and the 8 period SMA of the Low are plotted to create a channel. As the channel begins expanding, the current trend is getting stronger. However, when the expansion is too large, the trend may make a pullback to the channel (upper or lower), which act as support and resistance lines. This concept is the foundation for the Expansion Contraction Indicator (XC) developed by Brian Latta, Author of “The Book on Trading”.
End-pointed SSA of FDASMA [Loxx]End-pointed SSA of FDASMA is a modification of Fractal-Dimension-Adaptive SMA (FDASMA) using End-Pointed Singular Spectrum Analysis. This is a multilayer adaptive indicator.
What is the Fractal Dimension Index?
The goal of the fractal dimension index is to determine whether the market is trending or in a trading range. It does not measure the direction of the trend. A value less than 1.5 indicates that the price series is persistent or that the market is trending. Lower values of the FDI indicate a stronger trend. A value greater than 1.5 indicates that the market is in a trading range and is acting in a more random fashion.
See here for more info:
Fractal-Dimension-Adaptive SMA (FDASMA) w/ DSL
What is Singular Spectrum Analysis ( SSA )?
Singular spectrum analysis ( SSA ) is a technique of time series analysis and forecasting. It combines elements of classical time series analysis, multivariate statistics, multivariate geometry, dynamical systems and signal processing. SSA aims at decomposing the original series into a sum of a small number of interpretable components such as a slowly varying trend, oscillatory components and a ‘structureless’ noise. It is based on the singular value decomposition ( SVD ) of a specific matrix constructed upon the time series. Neither a parametric model nor stationarity-type conditions have to be assumed for the time series. This makes SSA a model-free method and hence enables SSA to have a very wide range of applicability.
For our purposes here, we are only concerned with the "Caterpillar" SSA . This methodology was developed in the former Soviet Union independently (the ‘iron curtain effect’) of the mainstream SSA . The main difference between the main-stream SSA and the "Caterpillar" SSA is not in the algorithmic details but rather in the assumptions and in the emphasis in the study of SSA properties. To apply the mainstream SSA , one often needs to assume some kind of stationarity of the time series and think in terms of the "signal plus noise" model (where the noise is often assumed to be ‘red’). In the "Caterpillar" SSA , the main methodological stress is on separability (of one component of the series from another one) and neither the assumption of stationarity nor the model in the form "signal plus noise" are required.
"Caterpillar" SSA
The basic "Caterpillar" SSA algorithm for analyzing one-dimensional time series consists of:
Transformation of the one-dimensional time series to the trajectory matrix by means of a delay procedure (this gives the name to the whole technique);
Singular Value Decomposition of the trajectory matrix;
Reconstruction of the original time series based on a number of selected eigenvectors.
This decomposition initializes forecasting procedures for both the original time series and its components. The method can be naturally extended to multidimensional time series and to image processing.
The method is a powerful and useful tool of time series analysis in meteorology, hydrology, geophysics, climatology and, according to our experience, in economics, biology, physics, medicine and other sciences; that is, where short and long, one-dimensional and multidimensional, stationary and non-stationary, almost deterministic and noisy time series are to be analyzed.

Fractal-Dimension-Adaptive SMA (FDASMA) w/ DSL [Loxx]Fractal-Dimension-Adaptive SMA (FDASMA) w/ DSL is a fractal-dimension-index-adaptive SMA. The SMA is accelerated during a trend and slowed down during a sideways market, so as to avoid false signals. This indicator uses the fractal dimension to compute an ingest period length into the SMA to output the FDASMA.
What is the Fractal Dimension Index?
The goal of the fractal dimension index is to determine whether the market is trending or in a trading range. It does not measure the direction of the trend. A value less than 1.5 indicates that the price series is persistent or that the market is trending. Lower values of the FDI indicate a stronger trend. A value greater than 1.5 indicates that the market is in a trading range and is acting in a more random fashion.
What are DSL Discontinued Signal Line?
A lot of indicators are using signal lines in order to determine the trend (or some desired state of the indicator) easier. The idea of the signal line is easy : comparing the value to it's smoothed (slightly lagging) state, the idea of current momentum/state is made.
Discontinued signal line is inheriting that simple signal line idea and it is extending it : instead of having one signal line, more lines depending on the current value of the indicator.
"Signal" line is calculated the following way :
When a certain level is crossed into the desired direction, the EMA of that value is calculated for the desired signal line
When that level is crossed into the opposite direction, the previous "signal" line value is simply "inherited" and it becomes a kind of a level
This way it becomes a combination of signal lines and levels that are trying to combine both the good from both methods.
In simple terms, DSL uses the concept of a signal line and betters it by inheriting the previous signal line's value & makes it a level.

Variety MA Cluster Filter [Loxx]Variety MA Cluster Filter is one method of creating a low-lag digital filter. This is done by calculating two moving averages and then comparing their output to the past value of the combined output and then choosing the max and min between the two moving averages to then determine the combined output. I've included standard deviation filtering for smoothing.
What is a Standard Deviation Filter?
If price or output or both don't move more than the (standard deviation) * multiplier then the trend stays the previous bar trend. This will appear on the chart as "stepping" of the moving average line. This works similar to Super Trend or Parabolic SAR but is a more naive technique of filtering.
