Highest Single-Day Percentage Change (Close to Close)This Pine Script is designed to calculate and display the largest percentage change in stock price between consecutive days' closing prices. Here's a high-level breakdown of what the script does:
Daily Percentage Change Calculation:
It calculates how much the stock price changed from the previous day's close to the current day's close. The change is expressed as a percentage of the previous day's closing price.
Tracking the Highest Change:
The script keeps track of the largest percentage increase or decrease it has encountered in the dataset (from previous close to current close). It updates the value if a new day exceeds the current largest recorded percentage change.
Visual Representation:
The daily percentage changes are plotted as a line graph, allowing you to see how the stock's price fluctuates from one day to the next.
A separate line is drawn to represent the highest percentage change detected so far.
If a day's price change matches the highest recorded change, a label appears on the chart to highlight that specific point.
Dynamic Updates:
The script is dynamic, meaning it continually updates as new data comes in. So, as new days are added to the chart, the script checks if the percentage change exceeds the previously highest recorded value.
Why This Is Useful:
For traders and investors: It provides a quick way to identify which day saw the most significant price movement, helping to spot major market events or volatility.
For historical analysis: You can quickly find the most extreme single-day price swings in a stock's historical data, which might be useful for understanding past market behavior or making predictions about future moves.
Candlestick analysis
[EmreKb] Combined CandlesThis script combines multiple candlestick patterns into a single, unified candle when they are of the same type (bullish or bearish). Instead of displaying every individual candle on the chart, it merges consecutive candles based on their direction to simplify the visual analysis of price movements.
What It Does:
Combines Candles: If two or more consecutive candles are bullish (close price higher than open price) or bearish (close price lower than open price), the script merges them into a single candle, adjusting the high, low, and close values accordingly.
Displays Merged Candles: The merged candles are drawn on the chart. A green bar represents a bullish period, while a red bar represents a bearish period.
How It Works:
The script tracks whether each candle is bullish or bearish.
If a candle is the same type as the previous one, it updates the combined candle (adjusting the high, low, and close values).
When the type changes (from bullish to bearish or vice versa), it finalizes the current combined candle and starts a new one.
The merged candles are displayed on the chart at the end of the data series.
Use Case:
This script simplifies price action by grouping similar candles together, making it easier to identify trends and spot periods of sustained buying or selling pressure. It can help traders focus on the overall direction of the market rather than being distracted by small fluctuations between individual candles.

AndreundCristianIndicator Overview:
The "Trade Signals with Volume" indicator is a custom script that generates buy and sell signals based on the crossover of two moving averages (a fast one and a slow one) and adds a volume filter to validate these signals. It plots these signals directly on the chart, using arrows or labels to indicate where buy and sell signals occur.
Key Features:
Moving Averages (MA):
The indicator uses two Simple Moving Averages (SMA): a fast SMA and a slow SMA.
A buy signal is triggered when the fast MA crosses above the slow MA, signaling potential bullish momentum.
A sell signal is triggered when the fast MA crosses below the slow MA, indicating potential bearish momentum.
Volume Filter:
To ensure that signals are more reliable, the indicator only triggers a buy or sell signal if the volume is above a certain threshold. This threshold can be adjusted by the user in the input settings.
For example, if the volume exceeds 100,000 (or any set value), and a crossover occurs, the signal is validated.
Visual Representation:
Buy signals are represented with green labels or arrows below the price bars.
Sell signals are represented with red labels or arrows above the price bars.
The MAs are also plotted on the chart for visual reference.
Input Parameters:
Fast Moving Average Length: The number of periods for the fast SMA (default is 9 periods).
Slow Moving Average Length: The number of periods for the slow SMA (default is 21 periods).
Volume Threshold: The minimum volume required to validate a buy or sell signal (default is 100,000).

Custom Candlestick Pattern IndicatorCustom Candlestick Pattern Indicator - Buy Signal Based on Green Candles Breaking Previous Lows
Overview:
This custom candlestick pattern indicator is designed to highlight potential buy opportunities based on a simple yet powerful candlestick pattern. The indicator identifies green candles that break below the low of the previous candle. This combination may signal a potential market reversal or a bullish continuation after a pullback, depending on the market context. Traders can use this indicator to detect areas where prices may be bouncing from recent lows, indicating a potential buying opportunity.
Pattern Explanation:
The strategy underlying this indicator is a two-part condition that must be met before a buy signal is generated:
Green Candle: A green candle forms when the closing price of the current candle is higher than its opening price. This visually represents bullish momentum as buyers have taken control, closing the price higher than where it opened.
Breaking the Previous Low: The low of the current candle must be lower than the low of the previous candle. This suggests that, despite initial bearish pressure during the candle formation (which drove the price below the previous candle's low), buyers stepped in to push the price higher by the candle’s close. This pattern can signify a potential reversal or bullish continuation, as it demonstrates that buyers are overcoming initial selling pressure.
When the Pattern Occurs:
This pattern is particularly interesting to traders who look for potential reversal signals after a brief decline in price.
It may also work well in markets where pullbacks are common, as this pattern could mark the end of a retracement and the resumption of the bullish trend.
How the Indicator Works:
Green Candle: The indicator first identifies a green candle, where the close of the candle is greater than its open (close > open). This signals that the current period closed higher than it opened, which is generally a bullish sign.
Breaking Previous Low: The indicator checks if the current candle's low is below the low of the previous candle (low < low ). If this condition is met, it means the price dropped below the previous candle's low but was still able to close higher (green candle), signaling a potential reversal or buying opportunity.
Buy Signal: If both conditions are true (green candle + breaking previous low), the indicator plots a buy signal below the candle in the form of an upward-facing triangle labeled "Buy" in green. This serves as a visual cue for traders to consider entering a buy position.
Optional Previous Low Plot: For added reference, the indicator plots the previous candle's low as a red step-line on the chart. This helps traders visualize when the price has dipped below the prior candle's low, making it easier to spot instances where the pattern is forming.
How to Use:
This indicator can be used across multiple timeframes, whether you’re trading short-term intraday patterns or longer-term swing trades.
It works well in markets that experience pullbacks or minor retracements, as the pattern it identifies suggests a rejection of lower prices followed by a push higher.
Traders can combine this indicator with other technical analysis tools (such as moving averages, support/resistance levels, or momentum oscillators) to strengthen the buy signals and add more context to the trading decision.
Example Scenarios:
Reversal Signal: Suppose a market has been in a minor downtrend, and suddenly a green candle forms after a low that breaks the previous day’s low. This indicator would generate a buy signal, suggesting the downtrend may be losing strength and that buyers are taking control. This could be an early indication of a reversal.
Bullish Continuation After Pullback: Imagine a market in a steady uptrend experiences a temporary pullback. The price breaks the previous candle’s low, but the current candle closes higher (green candle). This buy signal could indicate that the pullback is over, and the uptrend is likely to continue.
Advantages:
Simplicity: This indicator relies on basic price action (green candles and lows) without requiring complicated indicators or oscillators, making it easy to understand and use.
Visual Alerts: The plotted buy signals and previous lows provide a clear, visual representation on the chart, simplifying decision-making for traders.
Versatility: It can be applied across different timeframes and asset classes (stocks, forex, crypto, etc.), making it a versatile tool for all kinds of traders.
Limitations:
As with any single indicator or pattern, this should not be used in isolation. It is important to incorporate broader market context, support/resistance levels, and other forms of analysis to avoid false signals.
The pattern tends to be more effective when there’s sufficient market liquidity and may perform better in trending or volatile markets compared to sideways or flat markets.
Neutral Price Action Zones with Horizontal LinesIf the upper shadow of the red candle is longer than its lower shadow and the upper shadow of the green candle is longer than its lower shadow, it indicates that the upper and lower wicks of the red and green candles are equal. In this case, it means that the price does not show a clear trend in a specific direction, and the price movement is neutral. This situation usually suggests market uncertainty or that the price is moving within a horizontal range.
Red and Green Candle Check: The status of the candles is determined.
Shadow Calculations: The upper and lower shadows of the red and green candles are calculated.
Horizontal Range Check: The horizontal range condition is checked for the red and green candles.
Background Color: If the condition is met, the background is marked in gray.
Horizontal Line: When the horizontal range condition is met, a horizontal line is drawn.
Financial Crisis Predictor - Doomsday ClockThe **Financial Crisis Predictor - Doomsday Clock** is a composite indicator that evaluates multiple market conditions to determine financial risk levels. It combines four key metrics: market volatility (via VIX), yield curve spread, stock market momentum, and credit risk (via high-yield spread). Each metric contributes to a weighted "risk score," scaled between 0 and 100, which helps gauge the probability of a financial crisis. Here's a breakdown of how it works:
### 1. **Market Volatility (VIX)**
- **How it's measured:**
- Uses the VIX index, which represents expected market volatility.
- Applies two exponential moving averages (EMAs) to smooth out the data—one fast and one slow.
- Triggers a signal if the fast EMA crosses above the slow EMA and VIX exceeds a defined threshold (default is 30).
- **Weighting:**
- Contributes up to 35% of the total risk score when active.
### 2. **Yield Curve Spread**
- **How it's measured:**
- Takes the difference between the yields of 10-year and 2-year U.S. Treasury bonds (inversion indicates recession risk).
- If the spread drops below a certain threshold (default is 0.2), it signals a potential recession.
- **Weighting:**
- Contributes up to 25% of the risk score.
### 3. **Stock Market Momentum**
- **How it's measured:**
- Analyzes the S&P 500 (SPY) using a 20-day EMA for price momentum.
- Checks for a cross under the 20-day EMA and if the 5-day rate of change (ROC) is less than -2.
- This combination signals bearish market momentum.
- **Weighting:**
- Contributes up to 20% of the risk score.
### 4. **Credit Risk (High Yield Spread)**
- **How it's measured:**
- Assesses high-yield corporate bond spreads using EMAs, similar to the VIX logic.
- A crossover of the fast EMA above the slow EMA combined with spreads exceeding a defined threshold (default is 5.0) indicates increased credit risk.
- **Weighting:**
- Contributes up to 20% of the total risk score.
### 5. **Risk Score Calculation**
- The final **risk score** ranges from 0 to 100 and is calculated using the weighted sum of the four indicators.
- The score is smoothed to minimize false signals and maintain stability.
### 6. **Risk Zones**
- **Extreme Risk:** If the risk score is ≥ 75, indicating a severe crisis warning.
- **High Risk:** If the risk score is between 15 and 75, signaling heightened risk.
- **Moderate Risk:** If the risk score is between 10 and 15, representing potential concerns.
- **Low Risk:** If the risk score is < 10, suggesting stable conditions.
### 7. **Visual & Alerts**
- The indicator plots the risk score on a chart with color-coded backgrounds to indicate risk levels: green (low), yellow (moderate), orange (high), and red (extreme).
- Alert conditions are set for each risk zone, notifying users when the risk level transitions into a higher zone.
This indicator aims to quickly detect potential financial crises by aggregating signals from key market factors, making it a versatile tool for traders, analysts, and risk managers.
Similar Price ActionDescription:
The indicator tries to find an area of N candles in history that has the most similar price action to the latest N candles. The maximum search distance is limited to 5000 candles. It works by calculating a coefficient for each candle and comparing it with the coefficient of the latest candle, thus searching for two closest values. The indicator highlights the latest N candles, as well as the most similar area found in the past, and also tries to predict future price based on the latest price and price directly after the most similar area that was found in the past.
Inputs:
- Length -> the area we are searching for is comprised of this many candles
- Lookback -> maximum distance in which a similar area can be found
- Function -> the function used to compare latest and past prices
Notes:
- The indicator is intended to work on smaller timeframes where the overall price difference is not very high, but can be used on any
Master Candle Breakout V1 Master Candle Breakout V1 - Indicator Description
The Master Candle Breakout V1 indicator is a powerful price action-based tool designed to help traders identify and capitalize on breakout opportunities from consolidation phases. This indicator is particularly useful for identifying master candles, which are large candles that encompass the range of subsequent candles, creating a key level of support or resistance.

Key Features:
Master Candle Detection: The indicator identifies master candles based on a user-defined period, marking them on the chart as critical breakout points.
Buy and Sell Signals: When the price breaks above the master candle's high, a buy signal is plotted. Similarly, when the price breaks below the master candle's low, a sell signal is generated. These signals are displayed on the chart with customizable shapes (diamonds, arrows, circles, crosses) and colors for easy visualization.
Stop-Loss Level Display: For risk management, the indicator calculates and plots a stop-loss level based on user-defined ticks above or below the master candle's high or low. The stop-loss value is shown as a label next to the signal, helping traders manage risk effectively.
Customizable Colors and Shapes: Users can fully customize the appearance of the signals, including the color of the buy/sell diamonds, the stop-loss label text color, and the type of shape used for the signals.
Versatile Application: The Master Candle Breakout V1 can be applied to any timeframe and market, from forex and stocks to commodities and cryptocurrencies, making it a highly versatile tool for traders of all types.
How to Use:
Master Candle Period: Define how many candles should follow the master candle for confirmation.
Stop Loss Ticks: Set the number of ticks above or below the master candle to define your stop-loss level.
Entry Signals: Once the price closes outside the high or low of the master candle, enter the trade accordingly (buy on breakouts above the high, sell on breakouts below the low).
Risk Management: Use the stop-loss level provided by the indicator to minimize losses and protect your capital.
This indicator is perfect for traders who prefer a simple, price-action-based strategy and want to avoid the clutter of traditional indicators. By focusing on the core principle of breakouts, Master Candle Breakout V1 helps traders quickly identify consolidation zones and potential breakout trades.
Cumulative Volume Delta Strategy | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing the Cumulative Volume Delta Strategy (CVDS) Indicator, an advanced tool designed to enhance trading strategies by identifying potential trend reversals through volume dynamics. This script features integrated order block detection, Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), and a dynamic take-profit (TP) and stop-loss (SL) system. For an in-depth understanding of the strategy, refer to the "HOW DOES IT WORK?" section below.
Features of the new Cumulative Volume Delta Strategy (CVDS) Indicator :
Cumulative Volume Delta-based Strategy
Order Block and Fair Value Gap (FVG) Entry Methods
Dynamic TP/SL System
Customizable Risk Management Settings
Alerts for Buy, Sell, TP, and SL Signals
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The CVDS indicator operates by tracking the net volume difference between buyers and sellers to identify divergences that could indicate potential trend reversals. A cumulative volume delta (CVD) calculation is employed to measure the intensity of these divergences in relation to price movements. The net volume sum is reset every trading day (can be changed from the settings using the anchor period option), and divergences are detected when the cumulative volume crosses the 0-line over or under.
Once a significant divergence is detected, the indicator identifies breakout points, confirmed by either Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) or Order Blocks (OBs). Depending on your chosen entry mode, the indicator will trigger a buy or sell entry when the confirmation signal aligns with the breakout direction. Alerts for Buy, Sell, Take-Profit, and Stop-Loss are available.
Note that the indicator cannot run on 1-minute and 1-second charts, as it needs to get data from a lower timeframe. 1-minutes & 1-second timeframes are the minimum timeframes in their ranges respectively.
🚩 UNIQUENESS
What sets this indicator apart is the combination of volume divergence analysis with advanced price action tools like Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Order Blocks (OBs). The ability to choose between these methods, along with a dynamic TP/SL system that adapts based on volatility, provides flexibility for traders in any market condition. The backtesting dashboard provides metrics about the performance of the indicator. You can use it to tune the settings for best use in the current ticker. The CVD-based strategy ensures that trades are initiated only when meaningful divergences between volume and price occur, filtering out noise and increasing the likelihood of profitable trades.
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Anchor Period: Time anchor period used in CVD calculation. This is essentially the period that the volume delta sum will be reset. Lower timeframes may result in more entries at the cost of less reliable results.
Entry Mode: Choose between FVGs or OBs to trigger your entries based on the confirmation signals.
Retracement Requirement: Enable to confirm the entry after a retracement toward the FVG or OB.
2. Fair Value Gaps
FVG Sensitivity: Modify the sensitivity of FVG detection, allowing for more or fewer gaps to be considered valid.
3. Order Blocks (OB)
Swing Length: Define the swing length to identify OB formations. Shorter lengths find smaller OBs, while longer lengths detect larger structures.
4. TP / SL
TP / SL Method:
a) Dynamic: The TP / SL zones will be auto-determined by the algorithm based on the Average True Range (ATR) of the current ticker.
b) Fixed : You can adjust the exact TP / SL ratios from the settings below.
Dynamic Risk: The risk you're willing to take if "Dynamic" TP / SL Method is selected. Higher risk usually means a better winrate at the cost of losing more if the strategy fails. This setting is has a crucial effect on the performance of the indicator, as different tickers may have different volatility so the indicator may have increased performance when this setting is correctly adjusted.
Macro Timeframes with Opening PriceDescription: Macro Timeframe Horizontal Line Indicator
This indicator highlights macro periods on the chart by drawing a horizontal line at the opening price of each macro period. The macro timeframe is defined as the last 10 minutes of an hour (from :50 to :00) and the first 10 minutes of the following hour (from :00 to :10).
A horizontal black line is plotted at the opening price of the macro period, starting at :50 and extending through the duration of the macro window. However, you can customize it however you see fit.
The background of the macro period is highlighted with a customizable color to visually distinguish the timeframe.
The horizontal line updates at each macro period, ensuring that the opening price for every macro session is accurately reflected on the chart.
This tool is useful for traders who want to track the behavior of price within key macro intervals and visually assess price movement and volatility during these periods.
Strategy: Candlestick Wick Analysis with Volume Conditions
This strategy focuses on analyzing the wicks (or shadows) of candlesticks to identify potential trading opportunities based on candlestick structure and volume. Based on these criteria, it places stop orders at the extremities of the wicks when certain conditions are met, thus increasing the chances of capturing significant price movements.
Trading Criteria
Volume Conditions:
The strategy checks if the volume of the current candle is higher than that of the previous three candles. This ensures that the observed price movement is supported by significant volume, increasing the probability that the price will continue in the same direction.
Wick Analysis:
Upper Wick:
If the upper wick of a candle represents more than 90% of its body size and is longer than the lower wick, this indicates that the price tested a resistance level before pulling back.
Order Placement: In this case, a Buy Stop order is placed at the upper extremity of the wick. This means that if the price rises back to this level, the order will be triggered, and the trader will take a buy position.
SL Management: A stop-loss is then placed below the lowest point of the same candle. This protects the trader by limiting losses if the price falls back after the order is triggered.
Lower Wick:
If the lower wick of a candle is longer than the upper wick and represents more than 90% of its body size, this indicates that the price tested a support level before rising.
Order Placement: In this case, a Sell Stop order is placed at the lower extremity of the wick. Thus, if the price drops back to this level, the order will be triggered, and the trader will take a sell position.
SL Management: A stop-loss is then placed above the highest point of the same candle. This ensures risk management by limiting losses if the price rebounds upward after the order is triggered.
Strategy Advantages
Responsiveness to Price Movements: The strategy is designed to detect significant price movements based on the market's reaction around support and resistance levels. By placing stop orders directly at the wick extremities, it allows capturing strong movements in the direction indicated by the candles.
Securing Positions: Using stop-losses positioned just above or below key levels (wicks) provides better risk management. If the market doesn't move as expected, the position is automatically closed with a limited loss.
Clear Visual Indicators: Symbols are displayed on the chart at the points where orders have been placed, making it easier to understand trading decisions. This helps to quickly identify the support or resistance levels tested by the price, as well as potential entry points.
Conclusion
The strategy is based on the idea that large wicks signal areas where buyers or sellers have tested significant price levels before temporarily retreating. By placing stop orders at the extremities of these wicks, the strategy allows capturing price movements when they confirm, while limiting risks through strategically placed stop-losses. It thus offers a balanced approach between capturing potential profit and managing risk.
This description emphasizes the idea of capturing significant market movements with stop orders while providing a clear explanation of the logic and risk management. It’s tailored for publication on TradingView and highlights the robustness of the strategy.
ORB Daily 10 min (9:30am-3pm)This script implements the Opening Range Breakout (ORB) strategy for the New York trading session, specifically from 9:30 AM to 3:00 PM (Eastern Time). It identifies the high and low of the first 10 minutes (the first two 5-minute candles) after the market opens and draws a box representing this range. The box remains on the chart throughout the day until 3:00 PM. This strategy is useful for traders looking to trade breakouts of the opening range, often indicating potential trends or reversals.
E9 Bollinger RangeThe E9 Bollinger Range is a technical trading tool that leverages Bollinger Bands to track volatility and price deviations, along with additional trend filtering via EMAs.
The script visually enhances price action with a combination of trend-filtering EMAs, bar colouring for trend direction, signals to indicate potential buy and sell points based on price extension and engulfing patterns.
Here’s a breakdown of its key components:
Bollinger Bands: The strategy plots multiple Bollinger Band deviations to create different price levels. The furthest deviation bands act as warning signs for traders when price extends significantly, signaling potential overbought or oversold conditions.
Bar Colouring: Visual bar colouring is applied to clearly indicate trend direction: green bars for an uptrend and red bars for a downtrend.
EMA Filtering: Two EMAs (50 and 200) are used to help filter out false signals, giving traders a better sense of the underlying trend.
This combination of signals, visual elements, and trend filtering provides traders with a systematic approach to identifying price deviations and taking advantage of market corrections.
Brief History of Bollinger Bands
Bollinger Bands were developed by John Bollinger in the early 1980s as a tool to measure price volatility in financial markets. The bands consist of a moving average (typically 20 periods) with upper and lower bands placed two standard deviations away. These bands expand and contract based on market volatility, offering traders a visual representation of price extremes and potential reversal zones.
John Bollinger’s work revolutionized technical analysis by incorporating volatility into trend detection. His bands remain widely used across markets, including stocks, commodities, and cryptocurrencies. With the ability to highlight overbought and oversold conditions, Bollinger Bands have become a staple in many trading strategies.

MSTR-BTC PremiumThis custom indicator, “MSTR-BTC Premium with High, Average, and Low Levels,” helps you analyze the premium of MicroStrategy Incorporated’s (MSTR) stock price in relation to its Bitcoin holdings. By comparing the market capitalization of MSTR to the value of its Bitcoin holdings (using BTCUSD from Coinbase), this indicator calculates a premium that reflects how much the stock price deviates from its Bitcoin-related value.
Key Features:
• Premium Line: The primary feature is the “Premium,” which shows the ratio of MSTR’s market cap relative to its Bitcoin holdings and the BTCUSD price.
• High, Average, and Low Levels: The indicator calculates the highest, lowest, and average premium values over a user-defined period (default is 14 bars). These levels help identify overbought and oversold conditions relative to the stock’s Bitcoin valuation.
• Visual Shading: The area between the premium line and the average is shaded, making it easier to see when the premium is above or below its typical level. Optional shading is also available between the high and low levels to visualize the price range.
How to Use:
• Overbought/Undervalued Conditions: When the premium line rises significantly above the average, it may indicate that MSTR stock is overbought compared to its Bitcoin holdings. Conversely, when the premium falls below the average or approaches the low line, it might signal an undervalued opportunity.
• Trend and Mean Reversion: The high and low lines provide insight into extreme levels. Monitoring these alongside the average can assist in identifying potential mean reversion trades.
Customization:
• Calculation Period: The period for calculating the high, low, and average values can be adjusted to suit your trading strategy (default is 14).
• Shading Options: By default, the area between the premium and its average is shaded. You can enable or disable the shading between the high and low as needed.
This indicator is particularly useful for traders and investors following MicroStrategy (MSTR) and its Bitcoin strategy, providing a deeper understanding of the stock’s relationship to its underlying Bitcoin assets. It can assist in identifying key levels for decision-making based on deviations from historical norms.
How to Add the Indicator:
1. Adjust the calculation period (default is 14) to customize the analysis according to your preferred timeframe.
2. Watch for significant deviations of the premium line from its average to identify potential overbought/oversold conditions.
3. Use the high and low levels to help gauge extreme premium values and possible mean reversion opportunities.
Enjoy the analysis and make more informed decisions with the MSTR-BTC Premium Indicator!
This description should be clear and informative for anyone considering using your indicator. It highlights the functionality, purpose, and customization options in a straightforward way. Let me know if you’d like to tweak or adjust any part of it!
Visualization of price changes with Updated LineThis indicator is used to identify the upward or downward momentum of a trend and to visualize the corresponding price fluctuations.
Calculation of the Fluctuation
The price fluctuation (Fluctuation) is calculated and added to the rising fractuation array if it is rising or to the falling fractuation array if it is falling.
Calculating Moving Averages
A moving average is calculated for each fractuation to determine the momentum or strength of the trend. In this case, the higher the value of the moving average, the stronger the momentum in that direction.
Generation of Cross Signals
Detects the point at which a rising moving average crosses a falling moving average. At this crossing point, a triangle shape will be plotted on the chart at the timing of a possible trend turning point or push.
Displaying Lines
Based on this crosspoint, a line is drawn. This line represents a push in the direction of the trend and helps to identify price reversals and pushes. The line will rise when the uptrend is strengthening and fall when the downtrend is gaining momentum.
Thus, the signals and lines used to determine trend pushes and momentum are plotted visually and designed to help traders make decisions based on this information.
European and American Trading Sessions (Blue)The European and American trading sessions, in particular, are known for their volatility and volume, making them key periods for traders to watch.
This Pine Script indicator, "European and American Trading Sessions," helps traders visually distinguish these sessions directly on their charts by shading the background during active hours. We use this indicator in combination with the one that highlights the nighttime phases in white.
Here's a breakdown of how the indicator works:
Key Features of the Script:
Timezone Configuration:
The script allows users to select a timezone from a predefined list that includes UTC, London, Rome, New York, and Tokyo. This flexibility ensures that the session times are accurately displayed regardless of the server or local time of the user.
European Session Parameters:
Users can set the start and end times for the European session. By default, the session runs from 08:00 to 12:00, but the input options make it customizable down to the minute. The European session is highlighted with a light blue background (36% opacity) to avoid overwhelming the chart while still providing a clear visual cue.
American Session Parameters:
Similar to the European session, the American session can be customized. The default times are set from 12:01 to 20:59. This session is highlighted in a slightly darker blue (80% opacity), providing a distinct visual difference from the European session.
Session Timing Calculation:
The script calculates the start and end times for each session based on the selected timezone. It uses the timestamp() function to account for year, month, day, hour, and minute, ensuring that session timings are accurately applied to each day’s trading activity.
Background Highlighting:
Once the session times are defined, the script checks if the current chart time (time) falls within the European or American trading session. If the condition is true, the corresponding background color is applied, visually highlighting the active session directly on the chart. This feature makes it easy to identify when the European or American markets are in play.
Benefits for Traders:
Clear Session Visibility: The color-coded background makes it effortless for traders to identify when key trading sessions are active without needing to constantly check the clock.
Customizable to Your Needs:
With full control over the start and end times for both sessions, traders can adapt the indicator to fit their specific trading hours or preferences.
Timezone Flexibility:
No matter where you're trading from, the ability to set the timezone ensures that the sessions are displayed correctly according to your local time.
Explanation of the Code:
Timezone Selection:
Allows the user to select a timezone from predefined options such as Europe/Rome, America/New_York, etc. This timezone will be used to calculate session start and end times.
Session Timing Inputs:
The script takes user inputs for the start and end times of the European and American trading sessions. These inputs include the hour and minute for both sessions.
Colors:
The color of the European session is set to a blue shade with 36% opacity.
The American session is also colored blue but with a higher opacity of 80%.
Timestamp Calculation:
The timestamp() function converts the input hours and minutes into a time value, accounting for the selected timezone.
Session Conditions:
The script checks if the current time (time) falls within the European or American session. If true, it applies the respective background color for that session. This approach creates clear visual highlights on the chart, marking the active hours of the European and American trading sessions based on user inputs.
