Coppock Curve w/ Early Turns [QuantVue]The Coppock Curve is a momentum oscillator developed by Edwin Coppock in 1962. The curve is calculated using a combination of the rate of change (ROC) for two distinct periods, which are then subjected to a weighted moving average (WMA).
History of the Coppock Curve:
The Coppock Curve was originally designed for use on a monthly time frame to identify buying opportunities in stock market indices, primarily after significant declines or bear markets.
Historically, the monthly time frame has been the most popular for the Coppock Curve, especially for long-term trend analysis and spotting the beginnings of potential bull markets after bearish periods.
The signal wasn't initially designed for finding sell signals, however it can be used to look for tops as well.
When the indicator is above zero it indicates a hold. When the indicator drops below zero it indicates a sell, and when the indicator moves above zero it signals a buy.
While this indicator was originally designed to be used on monthly charts of the indices, many traders now use this on individual equities and etfs on all different time frames.
About this Indicator:
The Coppock Curve is plotted with colors changing based on its position relative to the zero line. When above zero, it's green, and when below, it's red. (default settings)
An absolute zero line is also plotted in black to serve as a reference.
In addition to the classic Coppock Curve, this indicator looks to identify "early turns" or potential reversals of the Coppock Curve rather than waiting for the indicator to cross above or below the zero line.
Give this indicator a BOOST and COMMENT your thoughts!
We hope you enjoy.
Cheers!

Coppock Unchanged
An implementation of the "Coppock Unchanged" plot concept by Tom McClellan.
Simply put, assume that for each bar, an alternative close creates a Coppock Plot that is unchanged , i.e. a close that generates a flat coppock curve.
This coppock unchanged plot can be used to:
1) identify a start of a trend on a long timescale (monthly) when the price goes above the coppock unchanged plot after a major correction
2) potentially identify an end of a trend when the prices goes below the coppock unchanged plot
See Tom McClellan's article 'Coppock Curve Still Working On a Major Bottom Signal' for a full explanation...
Coppock Curve with Pivot Points and Divergence The Coppock Curve is a long-term price momentum indicator used primarily to recognize major downturns and upturns in a stock market index. It is calculated as a 10-month weighted moving average of the sum of the 14-month rate of change and the 11-month rate of change for the index. It is also known as the "Coppock Guide."
The Coppock formula was introduced in Barron's in 1962 by Edwin Coppock.
The Coppock Curve is a technical indicator that provides long-term buy and sell signals for major stock indexes and related ETFs based on shifts in momentum.
What Does the Coppock Curve Tell You?
The Coppock Curve was originally implemented as a long-term buy and sell indicator for major indices such as the S&P 500 and the Wilshire 5000. Often, it is used with long-term time series such as a candlestick chart, but where each candle contains a month's worth of price information.
The Difference Between the Coppock Curve and Rate of Relative Strength Index (RSI)?
The relative strength index looks at how the current price compares to prior prices, though it is calculated differently than the rate of change (ROC) indicator used in the Coppock Curve calculation. Therefore, these indicators will provide different trade signals and information.
What are those circles?
-These are Divergences. Red for Regular-Bearish. Orange for Hidden-Bearish. Green for Regular-Bullish. Aqua for Hidden-Bullish.
What are those triangles?
- These are Pivots . They show when the VPT oscillator might reverse, this is important to know because many times the price action follows this move.
Please keep in mind that this indicator is a tool and not a strategy, do not blindly trade signals, do your own research first! Use this indicator in conjunction with other indicators to get multiple confirmations.
Coppock Curve StrategyCoppock Curve Strategy
Description:
The Coppock Indicator is a long-term price momentum oscillator which is used primarily to pinpoint major bottoms in the stock market. Crosses above the zero line indicate buying pressure, crosses below the center (zero) line indicate selling pressure.
This script generates a long entry signal when the Coppock value crosses over a signal line, and/or generates a short entry signal when the value crosses under a signal line.
Also it generates a long exit signal when the Coppock value crosses under a signal line, and/or generates a short exit signal when the value crosses over a signal line.
Signals can be filtered out by volatility, volume or both. To minimize repainting use higher percentage values of Time Threshold parameter.
LV Cop&RMA w HeikinA buy signal is generated when the indicator turns upwards from previous indicator level.
A sell signal is generated when the indicator turns downwards from previous indicator level.
The indicator is trend-following, and based on averages, so by its nature it doesn't pick a bottom, but rather shows when a rally has started.
It is designed for daily period use.
Frequent buy/sell signals can occur on low and high levels.
It is designed with the mentality of Coppock curve. Rma is used instead of Wma and Heikin-Ashi closing price is used instead of standard closing price.
Coppock Curve StrategyThis strategy makes use of a not widely known technical indicator called "Coppock Curve".
The indicator is derived by taking a weighted moving average of the rate-of-change (ROC) of a market index such as the S&P 500 or a trading equivalent such as the S&P 500 SPDR ETF. For more info: (www.investopedia.com)
This strategy uses $SPY Coppock curve as a proxy to generate buy signals on other ETF's and stocks.
Buy signals are generated when the Coppock Curve crosses above zero, and sell signals are generated when it crosses below.
An optional, trailing stop loss is available, with default settings to 100% so that it does not currently affect the buy and sell signals solely generated by the Coppock Curve. But you may find adding a Trailing stop loss may improve results on certain ETF's/Stocks.
You may also change the symbol for which signals are generated for, default is $SPY.
The published example shows using this strategy on a leverage ETF $TQQQ w/ starting capital of 10k, w/ 10k per trade. Try it on other stocks such as $AAPL, $AMZN $NFLX ect... I have found it to be an effective strategy that has a favorable risk to reward profile.
Any questions, please let me know!
RSI (w/ Curve and Volatility)This is a centered triple oscillator which measures RSI, RVI (volatility), and Coppock Curve (trend). This is centered so it ranges from negative 50 to positive 50. This indicator is used most accurately when all 3 indicators show above/below 0.
RSI is the bright pink line. RSI determines strength in a direction. When it is above 20 or below -20, a pullback is likely - this could be a prime time to scale out of position. Remember do not enter a trade just because it is oversold, as the strength is still greatly against you.
RVI is the thin lighter line. RVI was created by Donald Dorsey to use in conjunction with other indicators. The instructions for using RVI is to sell/short when below -10 and buy/cover when above 10. Use this indicator to confirm your bias.
The purple area is the Coppock curve . This curve is used to analyze longer term trends in a chart. RSI and RVI struggle to indicate long term trends, use the Coppock curve to confirm your bias. The curve is bullish when above 0 and bearish when below 0. Be cautious when trying to buy or sell it early when its falling. If it is falling and pops back up without reaching 0, it is typically indicate of a big price movement in that direction.

Triple Coppock CurveThe Coppock Curve is a zero-centered momentum oscillator that relies primarily on rate of change calculations. The Coppock Curve in its most basic form is already a great indicator, especially for spotting shifts in momentum. But, we wanted to see how we could modify it to get some better performance out of it.
As the ‘cop’ function demonstrates, the Coppock Curve has a pretty simple calculation. The first step is to calculate the rate of change at a longer and shorter window length. Next, the sum of the two rate of change values is calculated and finally a weighted moving average of a user defined length is calculated(this is the Coppock Curve).
The ‘cop()’ function set the foundation to allow us to implement our modifications. As you can see in the graph, there are 3 different lines (2 histogram and 1 normal line) comprising the Coppock values based on the rate of change of high, low, and closing prices. We liked this layout because it allows traders to easily identify the curve’s pivots and the balance of negative vs. positive momentum.
The Coppock Curve based on high prices is plotted as the teal histogram, wile the pink histogram represents the Coppock Curve of low prices. The curve based on closing prices is the red and green alternating line plotted on top of the two histograms.
We included some notes on the chart to help with interpreting the three curves.
There are two common approaches traders can take when trading with the indicator:
1. Trade based on closing price curve: Go long when line changes from bearish(red) to bullish(green). Then, go short when same line changes from bullish to bearish.
2. Trade based on crossings of the zero-line. This could be based on the high, low, or closing price curves, but closing price is the safest bet. So, go long when it crosses from negative into positive territory and short when it crosses under the zero line from positive into negative territory.
Coppock CurveThis indicator was originally developed by Edwin "Sedge" Coppock (Barron's Magazine, October 1962).
Specially for @AlexMayorov :
1) Buy when indicator crosses the zero line upside
2) Sell when indicator crosses the zero line downside
Coppock Curve with its own Moving AverageIt shows Coppock with its own moving average. (Yes, in a way, 3 moving averages.)
Advised to use :
for long term, certainly not for day-trade;
on daily charts;
not as a standalone indicator, helps to read RSI, Klinger, TSI, CCI, etc.
as momentum-signaling: crossing 0, inflection points, crossover
as a quasi-centered, quasi oscillator, but not proportional always.
Weakness: mourning period certainly not the same for everyone.
