Parabolic sar with breaks
Updated
This plots a Parabolic sar and a break line on the previous sar point before the parabolic sar flips.
This is looking to be a very popular entry signal for lots of strats.
How to use:
In conjunction with other confirmation indicators;
Long: Enter long when the Parabolic sar is below the price and the price breaks above (and closes) the break line.
Short: Enter short when the Parabolic sar is above the price and the price breaks below (and closes) the break line.
A great indicator combination for this is to use a 200 ema for price trend and volume flow.

Release Notes
removed wick check as it was buggyRelease Notes
Only show signals when parabolic sar is bullish/bearish.Release Notes
Selectable timeframeRelease Notes
Added alerts and changed breakout labels.After some research, I have found that when a parabolic Sar Breakout line is broken by price with high volume, it is much more likely to continue in that direction, and so I have have added strong and weak breakout labels.
