IPO Lifecycle Sell Strategy [JARUTIR]IPO Lifecycle Sell Strategy with Dynamic Buy Date and Multiple Sell Rules
This custom TradingView script is designed for traders looking to capitalize on dynamic strategies for IPOs and growth stocks, by implementing several sell rules based on price action and technical indicators. It provides a set of sell rules that are applied dynamically depending on the stock's lifecycle and price action, allowing users to lock in profits and minimize drawdowns based on key technical thresholds.
The four sell strategies incorporated into this script are inspired by the book "The Lifecycle Trade", a resource that focuses on capturing profits while managing risk in different phases of a stock's lifecycle, from IPO to high-growth stages.
Key Features:
Buy Price and Buy Date: You can either manually input your buy price and date or let the script automatically detect the buy date based on the specified buy price.
Multiple Sell Strategies: Choose from 4 predefined sell strategies:
Ascender Rule : Captures strong momentum from IPO stocks by selling portions at specific price levels or technical conditions.
Midterm Rule : Focuses on holding for longer periods, with defensive sell signals triggered when the stock deviates significantly from peak price or key moving averages.
40 Week Rule : Designed for long-term holds, this rule triggers a sell when the stock closes below the 40-week moving average.
Everest Rule : Aggressive strategy for selling into strength based on parabolic moves or gap downs, ideal for high momentum stocks.
Interactive Features:
Horizontal Green Line showing the buy price level from the buy date.
Visual Sell Signals appear only after the buy date to ensure that your analysis is relevant to the stock lifecycle.
Customizable settings, allowing you to choose your preferred sell rule strategy and automate buy date detection.
This script is perfect for traders using a strategic, systematic approach to IPOs and high-growth stocks, whether you're looking for quick exits during momentum phases or holding for longer-term growth.
Usage:
Input your Buy Price and Buy Date, or allow the script to automate the buy date detection.
Select a Sell Rule strategy based on your risk profile and trading style.
View visual signals for selling when specific conditions are met.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):
Q1: How do I input my Buy Price and Buy Date?
The script allows you to either manually input the Buy Price and Buy Date or use the automated detection. If you choose automated detection, the script will automatically assign the buy date when the price crosses above your set Buy Price.
Q2: What is the purpose of the "Sell Rules"?
The script offers four sell strategies to help manage different types of stocks in varying phases of their lifecycle:
Ascender Rule: Targets IPO stocks showing positive momentum.
Midterm Rule: A defensive strategy for stocks in a steady uptrend.
40 Week Rule: Long-term hold strategy designed to ride stocks through extended growth.
Everest Rule: Aggressive strategy to capture profits during parabolic price moves.
Q3: What is the significance of the Green Line at Buy Price?
The Green Line represents your entry point (Buy Price) on the chart. It will appear from the buy date onwards, helping you track the performance of your stock relative to your entry.
Q4: Can I customize the Sell Strategy?
Yes! You can choose from the available Sell Rules (Ascender Rule, Midterm Rule, 40 Week Rule, Everest Rule) via an input option in the script. Each strategy has its own unique triggers based on price action, moving averages, and time-based conditions.
Q5: Does this script work for stocks and crypto?
Yes, this script is designed for both stocks and cryptocurrencies. It works on any asset where price data and timeframes are available.
Q6: How do the Weekly Moving Averages (WSMA) work in this strategy?
The script uses weekly moving averages (WSMA) to track longer-term trends. These are essential for some of the sell rules, such as the Midterm Rule and 40 Week Rule, which rely on the stock's movement relative to the 40-week moving average.
Q7: Will the script plot a Sell Signal immediately after the Buy Date?
No, sell signals will only be plotted after the Buy Date. This ensures that the sell strategy is relevant to your actual holding period and avoids premature triggers.
Q8: How do I interpret the Sell Signal?
The script will plot a Red Sell Signal above the bar when the sell conditions are met, based on the selected strategy. This indicates that it may be a good time to exit the position according to your chosen rule.
Q9: Can I use this strategy on different timeframes?
Yes, you can apply the script to any timeframe. However, some sell strategies, like the Midterm Rule and 40 Week Rule, are designed to work best with weekly data, so it's recommended to use these strategies with longer timeframes.
Q10: Does this script have any alerts?
Yes! The script supports alert conditions that will notify you when the sell conditions are met according to your selected rule. You can set up alerts to stay informed without needing to watch the chart constantly.
Q11: What if I want to disable some of the sell rules?
You can select your preferred sell rule using the "Select Sell Rule" dropdown. If you don’t want to use a particular rule, simply choose a different strategy or leave it inactive.

Indicators and strategies
Polyphase MACD (PMACD)The Polyphase MACD (PMACD) uses polyphase decimation to create a continuous estimate of higher timeframe MACD behavior. The number of phases represents the timeframe multiplier - for example, 3 phases approximates a 3x higher timeframe.
Traditional higher timeframe MACD indicators update only when each higher timeframe bar completes, creating stepped signals that can miss intermediate price action. The PMACD addresses this by maintaining multiple phase-shifted MACD calculations and combining them with appropriate anti-aliasing filters. This approach eliminates the discrete jumps typically seen in higher timeframe indicators, though the resulting signal may sometimes deviate from the true higher timeframe values due to its estimative nature.
The indicator processes price data through parallel phase calculations, each analyzing a different time-offset subset of the data. These phases are filtered and combined to prevent aliasing artifacts that occur in simple timeframe conversions. The result is a smooth, continuous signal that begins providing meaningful values immediately, without requiring a warm-up period of higher timeframe bars.
The PMACD maintains the standard MACD components - the MACD line (fast MA - slow MA), signal line, and histogram - while providing a more continuous view of higher timeframe momentum. Users can select between EMA and SMA calculations for both the oscillator and signal components, with all calculations benefiting from the same polyphase processing technique.
Weekend BoxesWeekend Box Indicator
This indicator highlights weekend trading periods by drawing color-coded boxes from Saturday to Sunday. Each box includes a percentage label showing the price change during the weekend period. Green boxes indicate positive moves, while red boxes show negative moves. Use this to easily spot and analyze weekend volatility patterns.
set for UTC +5
Polyphase Stochastic RSI (PSRSI)The Polyphase Stochastic RSI (PSRSI) provides a continuous estimate of higher timeframe Stochastic RSI behavior by using polyphase decimation. The number of phases represents the timeframe multiplier - for example, 3 phases approximates a 3x higher timeframe.
While traditional higher timeframe indicators only update at the completion of each higher timeframe bar, the PSRSI creates a continuous signal by maintaining multiple phase-shifted calculations and combining them with appropriate anti-aliasing filters. This approach eliminates the gaps and discontinuities typically seen in higher timeframe indicators, though the resulting signal may sometimes deviate from the true higher timeframe values due to its estimative nature.
The indicator processes data through parallel phase calculations, each handling a different subset of price data offset in time. These phases are then filtered and combined to prevent aliasing artifacts that occur in simple timeframe conversions. The result is a smooth, continuous signal that starts providing meaningful values immediately, without requiring a warm-up period of higher timeframe bars.
Users can choose between RSI and Stochastic RSI modes, with both benefiting from the same polyphase processing technique. The indicator maintains the standard interpretation of overbought and oversold conditions while providing a more continuous view of higher timeframe momentum.
MCP Stop Strategy [JARUTIR]The MCP Stop Strategy is a trading tool designed to help traders lock in profits and manage risks. It is based on the concept of setting a MCP (Mental Capacity Preservation) Stop explained in the book "The Lifecycle Trade". I call it Maximum Controllable Profit Stop which helps protect profits once a stock or asset reaches a new peak. The MCP Stop is dynamically calculated based on the Buy Price and the All Time High Price (Peak Price), and is adjusted using a customizable percentage (MCP%) to retain a portion of the gains from the peak price during a drawdown.
Key Features :
MCP Stop Calculation: The script calculates the MCP Stop as:
MCP Stop = Buy Price + (Peak Price - Buy Price) x MCP%
This helps you protect a portion of your gains (defined by MCP%) as the price moves in your favor.
Flexible Buy Date Option:
You can either manually input a Buy Date or let the script automatically detect the Buy Date when the price first meets or exceeds the user-defined Buy Price.
After the Buy Date, the MCP Stop, Buy Price, and Peak Price are plotted on the chart for easy visualization.
Customizable Parameters:
Buy Price: The price at which the asset was bought.
MCP Percentage: The percentage of profit from the peak that you want to retain in case of a drawdown.
Lookback Length: The number of bars to consider when calculating the Peak Price (All Time High).
How to Use the Script :
Set the Buy Price: Enter the price at which you bought the asset.
Set the MCP%: Enter the percentage of profits you want to protect from the peak. For example, if you want to retain 10% of the gain from the peak, set this to 10.
Choose the Buy Date Method:
Automated Buy Date: The script will automatically detect the first bar where the price meets or exceeds the Buy Price.
Manual Buy Date: If you prefer to specify a particular Buy Date, input the desired date and time.
View the MCP Stop and Peak Price: After the Buy Date (either manually or automatically detected), the MCP Stop, Buy Price, and Peak Price will be plotted on the chart.
Monitor the MCP Stop Trigger: The script will alert you when the price falls below the MCP Stop, indicating a potential exit point to protect profits.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):
1. What is the MCP Stop?
The MCP Stop is a dynamic stop-loss level that adjusts based on your Buy Price and the All Time High Price (Peak Price). It protects a portion of your gains from the peak, which is defined by the MCP%. For example, if you set the MCP% to 10%, the script will retain 10% of the gains from the peak and use this as a stop-loss.
2. How does the Buy Date work?
The Buy Date is the date when you entered the position:
If you choose Automated Buy Date, the script will automatically set the Buy Date to the first bar when the price meets or exceeds the Buy Price.
If you choose Manual Buy Date, you can specify a particular date and time when you want the strategy to start calculating and plotting the MCP Stop and Peak Price.
3. What happens if the price falls below the MCP Stop?
If the price drops below the MCP Stop, the script will mark this as a potential exit point, helping you protect profits. A visual alert (MCP STOP) will be shown on the chart when the price reaches or falls below the MCP Stop.
4. Can I adjust the Lookback Length for Peak Price?
Yes, you can customize the Lookback Length (the number of bars the script considers when calculating the Peak Price) by entering a value in the input field. By default, it is set to 1000 bars, which represents a few months of historical data, but you can increase or decrease this based on your trading strategy.
5. Why would I want to use the automated Buy Date?
The Automated Buy Date is useful for traders who want the script to automatically track the Buy Date when the price first reaches or exceeds the Buy Price. This is helpful when you're unsure of the exact entry date but know the price at which you bought the asset. It simplifies the process by eliminating the need for manual input.
6. Can I use this strategy for long and short positions?
The current version of this script is designed for long positions, where you buy an asset and want to protect your profits as the price increases. If you're interested in applying it to short positions, you would need to adjust the logic accordingly (e.g., tracking the lowest price instead of the peak price).
7. Can I modify the script to fit my trading strategy?
Yes, this script is highly customizable. You can adjust parameters such as Buy Price, MCP%, and Lookback Length to suit your specific trading style. You can also tweak the visual appearance of the plotted lines and alerts.

TradingCharts SCTR [Bginvestor]This indicator is replicating Tradingcharts, SCTR plot. If you know, you know.
Brief description: The StockCharts Technical Rank (SCTR), conceived by technical analyst John Murphy, emerges as a pivotal tool in evaluating a stock’s technical prowess. This numerical system, colloquially known as “scooter,” gauges a stock’s strength within various groups, employing six key technical indicators across different time frames.
How to use it:
Long-term indicators (30% weight each)
-Percent above/below the 200-day exponential moving average (EMA)
-125-day rate-of-change (ROC)
Medium-term indicators (15% weight each)
-percent above/below 50-day EMA
-20-day rate-of-change
Short-term indicators (5% weight each)
-Three-day slope of percentage price oscillator histogram divided by three
-Relative strength index
How to use SCTR:
Investors select a specific group for analysis, and the SCTR assigns rankings within that group. A score of 99.99 denotes robust technical performance, while zero signals pronounced underperformance. Traders leverage this data for strategic decision-making, identifying stocks with increasing SCTR for potential buying or spotting weak stocks for potential shorting.
Credit: I've made some modifications, but credit goes to GodziBear for back engineering the averaging / scaling of the equations.
Note: Not a perfect match to TradingCharts, but very, very close.
Buying and Selling Volume Pressure S/RThis custom indicator aims to visualize underlying market pressure by cumulatively analyzing where trade volume occurs relative to each candle's price range. By separating total volume into "buying" (when price closes near the high of the bar) and "selling" (when price closes near the low of the bar), the indicator identifies shifts in dominance between buyers and sellers over a defined lookback period.
When cumulative buying volume surpasses cumulative selling volume (a "bullish cross"), it suggests that buyers are gaining control. Conversely, when cumulative selling volume exceeds cumulative buying volume (a "bearish cross"), it indicates that sellers are taking the upper hand.
Based on these crossovers, the indicator derives dynamic Support and Resistance lines. After a bullish cross, it continuously tracks and updates the lowest low that occurs while the trend is bullish, forming a support zone. Similarly, after a bearish cross, it updates the highest high that appears during the bearish trend, forming a resistance zone.
A Mid Line is then calculated as the average of the current dynamic support and resistance levels, providing a central reference point. Around this Mid Line, the script constructs an upper and lower channel based on standard deviation, offering a sense of volatility or "divergence" from the mean level.
Finally, the indicator provides simple buy and sell signals: a buy signal is triggered when the price closes back above the Mid Line, suggesting a potential shift toward bullish conditions, while a sell signal appears when the price closes below the Mid Line, hinting at a possible bearish move.
In summary, this indicator blends volume-based market pressure analysis with adaptive support and resistance detection and overlays them onto the chart. It helps traders quickly gauge who controls the market (buyers or sellers), identify dynamic levels of support and resistance, and receive alerts on potential trend changes—simplifying decision-making in rapidly evolving market conditions.

RSI and Bollinger Bands Screener [deepakks444]Indicator Overview
The indicator is designed to help traders identify potential long signals by combining the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Bollinger Bands across multiple timeframes. This combination allows traders to leverage the strengths of both indicators to make more informed trading decisions.
Understanding RSI
What is RSI?
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. Developed by J. Welles Wilder Jr. for stocks and forex trading, the RSI is primarily used to identify overbought or oversold conditions in an asset.
How RSI Works:
Calculation: The RSI is calculated using the average gains and losses over a specified period, typically 14 periods.
Range: The RSI oscillates between 0 and 100.
Interpretation:
Key Features of RSI:
Momentum Indicator: RSI helps identify the momentum of price movements.
Divergences: RSI can show divergences, where the price makes a higher high, but the RSI makes a lower high, indicating potential reversals.
Trend Identification: RSI can also help identify trends. In an uptrend, the RSI tends to stay above 50, and in a downtrend, it tends to stay below 50.
Understanding Bollinger Bands
What is Bollinger Bands?
Bollinger Bands are a type of trading band or envelope plotted two standard deviations (positively and negatively) away from a simple moving average (SMA) of a price. Developed by financial analyst John Bollinger, Bollinger Bands consist of three lines:
Upper Band: SMA + (Standard Deviation × Multiplier)
Middle Band (Basis): SMA
Lower Band: SMA - (Standard Deviation × Multiplier)
How Bollinger Bands Work:
Volatility Measure: Bollinger Bands measure the volatility of the market. When the bands are wide, it indicates high volatility, and when the bands are narrow, it indicates low volatility.
Price Movement: The price tends to revert to the mean (middle band) after touching the upper or lower bands.
Support and Resistance: The upper and lower bands can act as dynamic support and resistance levels.
Key Features of Bollinger Bands:
Volatility Indicator: Bollinger Bands help traders understand the volatility of the market.
Mean Reversion: Prices tend to revert to the mean (middle band) after touching the bands.
Squeeze: A Bollinger Band Squeeze occurs when the bands narrow significantly, indicating low volatility and a potential breakout.
Combining RSI and Bollinger Bands
Strategy Overview:
The strategy aims to identify potential long signals by combining RSI and Bollinger Bands across multiple timeframes. The key conditions are:
RSI Crossing Above 60: The RSI should cross above 60 on the 15-minute timeframe.
RSI Above 60 on Higher Timeframes: The RSI should already be above 60 on the hourly and daily timeframes.
Price Above 20MA or Walking on Upper Bollinger Band: The price should be above the 20-period moving average of the Bollinger Bands or walking on the upper Bollinger Band.
Strategy Details:
RSI Calculation:
Calculate the RSI for the 15-minute, 1-hour, and 1-day timeframes.
Check if the RSI crosses above 60 on the 15-minute timeframe.
Ensure the RSI is above 60 on the 1-hour and 1-day timeframes.
Bollinger Bands Calculation:
Calculate the Bollinger Bands using a 20-period moving average and 2 standard deviations.
Check if the price is above the 20-period moving average or walking on the upper Bollinger Band.
Entry and Exit Signals:
Long Signal: When all the above conditions are met, consider a long entry.
Exit: Exit the trade when the price crosses below the 20-period moving average or the stop-loss is hit.
Example Usage
Setup:
Add the indicator to your TradingView chart.
Configure the inputs as per your requirements.
Monitoring:
Look for the long signal on the chart.
Ensure that the RSI is above 60 on the 15-minute, 1-hour, and 1-day timeframes.
Check that the price is above the 20-period moving average or walking on the upper Bollinger Band.
Trading:
Enter a long position when the criteria are met.
Set a stop-loss below the low of the recent 15-minute candle or based on your risk management rules.
Monitor the trade and exit when the RSI returns below 60 on any of the timeframes or when the price crosses below the 20-period moving average.
House Rules Compliance
No Financial Advice: This strategy is for educational purposes only and should not be construed as financial advice.
Risk Management: Always use proper risk management techniques, including stop-loss orders and position sizing.
Past Performance: Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always conduct your own research and analysis.
TradingView Guidelines: Ensure that any shared scripts or strategies comply with TradingView's terms of service and community guidelines.
Conclusion
This strategy combines RSI and Bollinger Bands across multiple timeframes to identify potential long signals. By ensuring that the RSI is above 60 on higher timeframes and that the price is above the 20-period moving average or walking on the upper Bollinger Band, traders can make more informed decisions. Always remember to conduct thorough research and use proper risk management techniques.
Sunil's Three 3 Inside Up Down IndicatorThree candlestick Pattern Bullish Reversal- Three Inside Up => Formed by a Bullish Harami pattern followed by a confirmation candle closing above the previous candle.
Three candlestick Pattern Bearish Reversal- Three Inside Down => Formed by a Bearish Harami pattern followed by a confirmation candle closing below the previous candle.
Auto Swing TPAutomatic TP generator from recent swing highs and swing lows
Multiple long & short TPs from current price are displayed.
Results will differ by timeframe.
The main parameter is the "cell size" which is the least significant price move for the current asset. The default value of 0.4% is optimized for crypto. You may want to use less for less volatile asset classes.
How it works
We divide price into cells of a certain percent sizes, mainly because this makes the computation a lot easier.
We note in which bar every price cell was last visited. We take the distance to the current bar and then the logarithm of that to a certain base (the "time dimension"). Using a logarithm gives a nice balance of near-term and long-term targets. We call that logarithmic value the "level" of that price cell.
If a price cell has a significantly higher or lower level (at least by +2 or -2) than the cell above or below, this is considered a possible TP area.
Finally we check if the trade makes sense (meaning is of a certain size, at least 10 cells by default). If yes, we reduce the TP by a bit (by default 2 cells) and add it to the chart.

Smart DCA Strategy (Public)INSPIRATION
While Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) is a popular and stress-free investment approach, I noticed an opportunity for enhancement. Standard DCA involves buying consistently, regardless of market conditions, which can sometimes mean missing out on optimal investment opportunities. This led me to develop the Smart DCA Strategy – a 'set and forget' method like traditional DCA, but with an intelligent twist to boost its effectiveness.
The goal was to build something more profitable than a standard DCA strategy so it was equally important that this indicator could backtest its own results in an A/B test manner against the regular DCA strategy.
WHY IS IT SMART?
The key to this strategy is its dynamic approach: buying aggressively when the market shows signs of being oversold, and sitting on the sidelines when it's not. This approach aims to optimize entry points, enhancing the potential for better returns while maintaining the simplicity and low stress of DCA.
WHAT THIS STRATEGY IS, AND IS NOT
This is an investment style strategy. It is designed to improve upon the common standard DCA investment strategy. It is therefore NOT a day trading strategy. Feel free to experiment with various timeframes, but it was designed to be used on a daily timeframe and that's how I recommend it to be used.
You may also go months without any buy signals during bull markets, but remember that is exactly the point of the strategy - to keep your buying power on the sidelines until the markets have significantly pulled back. You need to be patient and trust in the historical backtesting you have performed.
HOW IT WORKS
The Smart DCA Strategy leverages a creative approach to using Moving Averages to identify the most opportune moments to buy. A trigger occurs when a daily candle, in its entirety including the high wick, closes below the threshold line or box plotted on the chart. The indicator is designed to facilitate both backtesting and live trading.
HOW TO USE
Settings:
The input parameters for tuning have been intentionally simplified in an effort to prevent users falling into the overfitting trap.
The main control is the Buying strictness scale setting. Setting this to a lower value will provide more buying days (less strict) while higher values mean less buying days (more strict). In my testing I've found level 9 to provide good all round results.
Validation days is a setting to prevent triggering entries until the asset has spent a given number of days (candles) in the overbought state. Increasing this makes entries stricter. I've found 0 to give the best results across most assets.
In the backtest settings you can also configure how much to buy for each day an entry triggers. Blind buy size is the amount you would buy every day in a standard DCA strategy. Smart buy size is the amount you would buy each day a Smart DCA entry is triggered.
You can also experiment with backtesting your strategy over different historical datasets by using the Start date and End date settings. The results table will not calculate for any trades outside what you've set in the date range settings.
Backtesting:
When backtesting you should use the results table on the top right to tune and optimise the results of your strategy. As with all backtests, be careful to avoid overfitting the parameters. It's better to have a setup which works well across many currencies and historical periods than a setup which is excellent on one dataset but bad on most others. This gives a much higher probability that it will be effective when you move to live trading.
The results table provides a clear visual representation as to which strategy, standard or smart, is more profitable for the given dataset. You will notice the columns are dynamically coloured red and green. Their colour changes based on which strategy is more profitable in the A/B style backtest - green wins, red loses. The key metrics to focus on are GOA (Gain on Account) and Avg Cost.
Live Trading:
After you've finished backtesting you can proceed with configuring your alerts for live trading.
But first, you need to estimate the amount you should buy on each Smart DCA entry. We can use the Total invested row in the results table to calculate this. Assuming we're looking to trade on
BTCUSD
Decide how much USD you would spend each day to buy BTC if you were using a standard DCA strategy. Lets say that is $5 per day
Enter that USD amount in the Blind buy size settings box
Check the Blind Buy column in the results table. If we set the backtest date range to the last 10 years, we would expect the amount spent on blind buys over 10 years to be $18,250 given $5 each day
Next we need to tweak the value of the Smart buy size parameter in setting to get it as close as we can to the Total Invested amount for Blind Buy
By following this approach it means we will invest roughly the same amount into our Smart DCA strategy as we would have into a standard DCA strategy over any given time period.
After you have calculated the Smart buy size, you can go ahead and set up alerts on Smart DCA buy triggers.
BOT AUTOMATION
In an effort to maintain the 'set and forget' stress-free benefits of a standard DCA strategy, I have set my personal Smart DCA Strategy up to be automated. The bot runs on AWS and I have a fully functional project for the bot on my GitHub account. Just reach out if you would like me to point you towards it. You can also hook this into any other 3rd party trade automation system of your choice using the pre-configured alerts within the indicator.
PLANNED FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS
Currently this is purely an accumulation strategy. It does not have any sell signals right now but I have ideas on how I will build upon it to incorporate an algorithm for selling. The strategy should gradually offload profits in bull markets which generates more USD which gives more buying power to rinse and repeat the same process in the next cycle only with a bigger starting capital. Watch this space!
MARKETS
Crypto:
This strategy has been specifically built to work on the crypto markets. It has been developed, backtested and tuned against crypto markets and I personally only run it on crypto markets to accumulate more of the coins I believe in for the long term. In the section below I will provide some backtest results from some of the top crypto assets.
Stocks:
I've found it is generally more profitable than a standard DCA strategy on the majority of stocks, however the results proved to be a lot more impressive on crypto. This is mainly due to the volatility and cycles found in crypto markets. The strategy makes its profits from capitalising on pullbacks in price. Good stocks on the other hand tend to move up and to the right with less significant pullbacks, therefore giving this strategy less opportunity to flourish.
Forex:
As this is an accumulation style investment strategy, I do not recommend that you use it to trade Forex.

This means once a structure level or pivot is identified, it stays permanent - providing reliable signals for analysis and trading decisions.
The indicator combines two layers of market structure:
1. Internal Structure (lighter lines) - More sensitive to local price action
2. General Structure (darker lines) - Shows broader market context
Technical Details:
- Uses advanced pivot detection algorithm with customizable swing size
- Implements consecutive break counting for structure adjustments
- Supports both close and high/low price levels for breakout detection
- Includes offset option for better visual alignment
- Each structure break is validated against multiple conditions to prevent false signals

[blackcat] L1 Simple Dual Channel Breakout█ OVERVIEW
The script " L1 Simple Dual Channel Breakout" is an indicator designed to plot dual channel breakout bands and their long-term EMAs on a chart. It calculates short-term and long-term moving averages and deviations to establish upper, lower, and middle bands, which traders can use to identify potential breakout opportunities.
█ LOGICAL FRAMEWORK
Structure:
The script is structured into several main sections:
• Input Parameters: The script does not explicitly define input parameters for the user to adjust, but it uses default values for short_term_length (5) and long_term_length (181).
• Calculations: The calculate_dual_channel_breakout function performs the core calculations, including the blast condition, typical price, short-term and long-term moving averages, and dynamic moving averages.
• Plotting: The script plots the short-term bands (upper, lower, and middle) and their long-term EMAs. It also plots conditional line breaks when the short-term bands cross the long-term EMAs.
Flow of Data and Logic:
1 — The script starts by defining the calculate_dual_channel_breakout function.
2 — Inside the function, it calculates various moving averages and deviations based on the input prices and lengths.
3 — The function returns the calculated bands and EMAs.
4 — The script then calls this function with predefined lengths and plots the resulting bands and EMAs on the chart.
5 — Conditional plots are added to highlight breakouts when the short-term bands cross the long-term EMAs.
█ CUSTOM FUNCTIONS
The script defines one custom function:
• calculate_dual_channel_breakout(close_price, high_price, low_price, short_term_length, long_term_length): This function calculates the short-term and long-term bands and EMAs. It takes five parameters: close_price, high_price, low_price, short_term_length, and long_term_length. It returns an array containing the upper band, lower band, middle band, long-term upper EMA, long-term lower EMA, and long-term middle EMA.
█ KEY POINTS AND TECHNIQUES
• Typical Price Calculation: The script uses a modified typical price calculation (2 * close_price + high_price + low_price) / 4 instead of the standard (high_price + low_price + close_price) / 3.
• Short-term and Long-term Bands: The script calculates short-term bands using a simple moving average (SMA) of the typical price and long-term bands using a relative moving average (RMA) of the close price.
• Conditional Plotting: The script uses conditional plotting to highlight breakouts when the short-term bands cross the long-term EMAs, enhancing visual identification of trading signals.
• EMA for Long-term Trends: The use of Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) for long-term bands helps in smoothing out short-term fluctuations and focusing on long-term trends.
█ EXTENDED KNOWLEDGE AND APPLICATIONS
• Modifications: Users can add input parameters to allow customization of short_term_length and long_term_length, making the indicator more flexible.
• Enhancements: The script could be extended to include alerts for breakout conditions, providing traders with real-time notifications.
• Alternative Bands: Users might experiment with different types of moving averages (e.g., WMA, HMA) for the short-term and long-term bands to see if they yield better results.
• Additional Indicators: Combining this indicator with other technical indicators (e.g., RSI, MACD) could provide a more comprehensive trading strategy.
• Backtesting: Users can backtest the strategy using Pine Script's strategy functions to evaluate its performance over historical data.

Weighted Fourier Transform: Spectral Gating & Main Frequency🙏🏻 This drop has 2 purposes:
1) to inform every1 who'd ever see it that Weighted Fourier Tranform does exist, while being available nowhere online, not even in papers, yet there's nothing incredibly complicated about it, and it can/should be used in certain cases;
2) to show TradingView users how they can use it now in dem endevours, to show em what spectral filtering is, and what can they do with all of it in diy mode.
... so we gonna have 2 sections in the description
Section 1: Weighted Fourier Transform
It's quite easy to include weights in Fourier analysis: you just premultiply each datapoint by its corresponding weight -> feed to direct Fourier Transform, and then divide by weights after inverse Fourier transform. Alternatevely, in direct transform you just multiply contributions of each data point to the real and imaginary parts of the Fourier transform by corresponding weights (in accumulation phase), and in inverse transform you divide by weights instead during the accumulation phase. Everything else stays the same just like in non-weighted version.
If you're from the first target group let's say, you prolly know a thing or deux about how to code & about Fourier Transform, so you can just check lines of code to see the implementation of Weighted Discrete version of Fourier Transform, and port it to to any technology you desire. Pine Script is a developing technology that is incredibly comfortable in use for quant-related tasks and anything involving time series in general. While also using Python for research and C++ for development, every time I can do what I want in Pine Script, I reach for it and never touch matlab, python, R, or anything else.
Weighted version allows you to explicetly include order/time information into the operation, which is essential with every time series, although not widely used in mainstream just as many other obvious and right things. If you think deeply, you'll understand that you can apply a usual non-weighted Fourier to any 2d+ data you can (even if none of these dimensions represent time), because this is a geometric tool in essence. By applying linearly decaying weights inside Fourier transform, you're explicetly saying, "one of these dimensions is Time, and weights represent the order". And obviously you can combine multiple weightings, eg time and another characteristic of each datum, allows you to include another non-spatial dimension in your model.
By doing that, on properly processed (not only stationary but Also centered around zero data), you can get some interesting results that you won't be able to recreate without weights:
^^ A sine wave, centered around zero, period of 16. Gray line made by: DWFT (direct weighted Fourier transform) -> spectral gating -> IWFT (inverse weighted Fourier transform) -> plotting the last value of gated reconstructed data, all applied to expanding window. Look how precisely it follows the original data (the sine wave) with no lag at all. This can't be done by using non-weighted version of Fourier transform.
^^ spectral filtering applied to the whole dataset, calculated on the latest data update
And you should never forget about Fast Fourier Transform, tho it needs recursion...
Section 2: About use cases for quant trading, about this particular implementaion in Pine Script 6 (currently the latest version as of Friday 13, December 2k24).
Given the current state of things, we have certain limits on matrix size on TradingView (and we need big dope matrixes to calculate polynomial regression -> detrend & center our data before Fourier), and recursion is not yet available in Pine Script, so the script works on short datasets only, and requires some time.
A note on detrending. For quality results, Fourier Transform should be applied to not only stationary but also centered around zero data. The rightest way to do detrending of time series
is to fit Cumulative Weighted Moving Polynomial Regression (known as WLSMA in some narrow circles xD) and calculate the deltas between datapoint at time t and this wonderful fit at time t. That's exactly what you see on the main chart of script description: notice the distances between chart and WLSMA, now look lower and see how it matches the distances between zero and purple line in WFT study. Using residuals of one regression fit of the whole dataset makes less sense in time series context, we break some 'time' and order rules in a way, tho not many understand/cares abouit it in mainstream quant industry.
Two ways of using the script:
Spectral Gating aka Spectral filtering. Frequency domain filtering is quite responsive and for a greater computational cost does not introduce a lag the way it works with time-domain filtering. Works this way: direct Fourier transform your data to get frequency & phase info -> compute power spectrum out of it -> zero out all dem freqs that ain't hit your threshold -> inverse Fourier tranform what's left -> repeat at each datapoint plotting the very first value of reconstructed array*. With this you can watch for zero crossings to make appropriate trading decisions.
^^ plot Freq pass to use the script this way, use Level setting to control the intensity of gating. These 3 only available values: -1, 0 and 1, are the general & natural ones.
* if you turn on labels in script's style settings, you see the gray dots perfectly fitting your data. They get recalculated (for the whole dataset) at each update. You call it repainting, this is for analytical & aesthetic purposes. Included for demonstration only.
Finding main/dominant frequency & period. You can use it to set up Length for your other studies, and for analytical purposes simply to understand the periodicity of your data.
^^ plot main frequency/main period to use the script this way. On the screenshot, you can see the script applied to sine wave of period 16, notice how many datapoints it took the algo to figure out the signal's period quite good in expanding window mode
Now what's the next step? You can try applying signal windowing techniques to make it all less data-driven but your ego-driven, make a weighted periodogram or autocorrelogram (check Wiener-Khinchin Theorem ), and maybe whole shiny spectrogram?
... you decide, choice is yours,
The butterfly reflect the doors ...

Box Color.
Box Border Color allows you to change the color of the box border.
This script is useful for visualizing different symbols and data sources, especially to show the relationship between financial data.
Caution.
Some data may exceed the memory size, but the scale is the same, so you will know most of the locations.
*I made it myself because I could not find anything to draw a scatter plot. You can also compare more than 3 pieces of data by displaying more than one scatter plot. Here is how to do it. Set X or Y as the reference data. Set the data you want to compare to the one that is not the standard. Next, set the same indicator and set the reference to another set of data you wish to compare. Now you can compare the three sets of data. It is effective to change the color of the display box to prevent the user from not knowing which is which. Thus, you should be able to compare more than 3 pieces of data, so give it a try.
Physical Levels (XAUUSD, 5$ Pricesteps)Functionality:
This indicator draws horizontal lines in the XAUUSD market at a fixed spacing of USD 5. The lines are both above and below the current market price. The number of lines is limited to optimize performance.
Use:
The indicator is particularly useful for traders who want to analyze psychological price levels, support and resistance areas, or significant price zones in the gold market. It helps to better visualize price movements and their proximity to round numbers.
How it works:
The indicator calculates a starting price based on the current price of XAUUSD, rounded to the nearest multiple of USD 5.
Starting from this starting price, evenly distributed lines are drawn up and down.
The lines are black throughout and are updated dynamically according to the current chart.
