Volatility ContractionA very simple indicator which calculates the range of a definable period (the default is 5 bars) using a percentage range between the highest and lowest prices calculated from the candle bodies (i.e. open and close values). The plotted line makes it easy to see when price movement is tightening (volatility contraction). The dashed threshold line (default 10%) provides a reference point for setting alerts, helping to identify periods of low volatility (e.g. for stocks in your watchlist) that could signal upcoming market action.

Saral TrendSaral Trend ### Overview The Saral Trend Indicator is a price-action-based tool designed to measure trend strength dynamically. Unlike traditional trend following indicators that rely solely on moving averages or fixed formulas, Saral Trend integrates Directional Movement, price positioning within the bar range, and volatility-adjusted trend weighting to create a clearer visualization of market momentum. By refining the classic trend following approach, this indicator provides more responsive and adaptive trend analysis across various timeframes. ### Key Features Trend Histogram: Four types of bars indicate trend strength and momentum. - Bullish Up: Higher than the previous bar; signals a strong uptrend; Color: Dark Blue. - Bullish Down: Lower than the previous bar; suggests weakening momentum in an uptrend; Color: Light Blue. - Bearish Up: Higher than the previous bar; signals a strong downtrend; Color: Dark Red. - Bullish Down: Lower than the previous bar; suggests weakening momentum in a downtrend; Color: Light Red. Trend Strength Line: A smoothed reference line that provides additional confirmation of momentum strength. - When histogram bars are above this line, the trend is strong. - When they fall below, momentum weakens. Trend Pause Dots: Appear when the trend shows signs of temporary exhaustion, suggesting a possible short-term pause or reversal. - A bullish pause dot on a bearish bar indicates a temporary halt in an uptrend before continuation or a reversal. - A bearish pause dot on a bullish bar indicates a temporary halt in a downtrend before continuation or a reversal. Oscillator Functionality: No fixed upper limit, but extreme bar values (e.g., above 100) suggest overbought or oversold conditions. ### Calculation Methodology Analyzing Price Movement: - The indicator calculates the difference between the highest and lowest prices over a period to determine price movement. - It smooths these values using an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to filter out short-term noise. Identifying Trend: - It compares the current high and low prices with their moving averages to determine whether the market is trending up or down. - If the high price moves further from its average compared to the low price, it indicates bullish strength. Conversely, if the low price moves further from its average compared to high price, it signals bearish strength. Evaluating Closing Price Position: - The indicator analyzes where the closing price is within the high-low range. - If the closing price is near the high, bullish strength is emphasized. If it is near the low, bearish strength is given more weight. Measuring Trend Strength: - The indicator applies volatility based smoothing techniques to measure positive and negative trend strength separately. - A higher positive trend value suggests strong buying pressure, while a higher negative trend value indicates strong selling pressure. - A dynamic smoothing approach ensures trend signals remain stable while reacting quickly to market shifts. Visualizing Trend Strength with a Histogram: - The indicator plots a positive and negative strength in form of histogram to represent the strength and direction of the trend. - The color of the histogram bars changes based on whether the trend is strengthening or weakening. - Blue shades indicate bullish trends, while red shades represent bearish trends. Trend Reversal Detection: A trend pause or potential reversal is identified when the histogram weakens sharply, with dots appearing on bars as early warnings. ### How to Use It Trend Direction: The colors of the histogram bars provide a visual clue about the ongoing trend - whether it's bullish or bearish - allowing traders to assess market sentiment at a glance. Trend Confirmation: When histogram bars are consistently above the Trend Strength Line, it indicates strong momentum, confirming trade direction. Momentum Shifts: A color shift (e.g., from Dark Blue to Light Blue) suggests weakening strength, which could indicate a pullback or reversal. Reversal Signals: Trend Pause Dots highlight areas where momentum stalls, helping traders prepare for possible reversals or consolidations. Timeframe Flexibility: - Long-term traders can use weekly/monthly charts for macro trends. - Swing traders can use daily/hourly charts to capture medium-term opportunities. - Day traders can use 15-minute or lower timeframes for precise intraday entries. ### What Makes Saral Trend Unique? Unlike conventional trend indicators that rely solely on moving averages, Saral Trend improves upon existing methods by: Integrating price positioning within the range to make trend strength more responsive. Applying volatility-adjusted trend weighting, ensuring trends are measured dynamically rather than through fixed lookback periods. Providing multiple visual cues (histogram, strength line, and pause dots) to help traders make informed decisions. This indicator is optimized for simplicity and efficiency , making it suitable for traders across different styles, from long-term investors to intraday scalpers. By combining trend structure, momentum shifts, and volatility adaptation , Saral Trend delivers a comprehensive and actionable trend analysis tool for TradingView users.

Abhi's Bollinger Band Reversal SignalThis Pine Script indicator is designed to detect reversal trade opportunities using Bollinger Band breakouts. It identifies both buy and sell setups with clearly defined entry, stop-loss (SL), and target (TP) conditions. It also manages trades visually with real-time signal plotting, and limits entries per trading day. ⚙️ How It Works 🔽 Sell Signal Conditions - The previous candle must close above the upper Bollinger Band, and its entire body must be above the band - The current candle must fail to break the previous high, and must break below the previous low - Entry is taken at the previous candle’s low, with SL at its high - Target is calculated based on a configurable Risk:Reward ratio 🔼 Buy Signal Conditions - The previous candle must close below the lower Bollinger Band, and its entire body must be below the band - The current candle must fail to break the previous low, and must break above the previous high - Entry is at the previous candle’s high, with SL at its low - Target is calculated using the same Risk:Reward ratio ⏰ Time-Based Exit - If a trade is still active by a user-defined exit time (e.g. 15:15), the trade is closed - Labels are plotted to show whether this exit was a profit or loss 🧩 User Inputs - Start Time for signals - Exit Time for open trades - Bollinger Band Settings: Period and Std Dev - Max Entries Per Day - Risk:Reward Ratio: Dropdown for 1:1, 1:1.5, ..., 1:3 🎨 Visual Features ✅ BUY and SELL signals are plotted when valid conditions are detected 🟢 TP and 🔴 SL labels show trade outcome 🕒 TIME EXIT labels appear at user-set exit time with green/red coloring based on profitability 📉 Bollinger Bands plotted for visual context 📌 Notes: - Designed for intraday trading, resets entry counter daily - Uses bar_index > tradeBarIndex to avoid SL/TP being triggered on the same candle as entry - Tracks only one trade at a time (tradeActive) — ensures clear, non-overlapping logic

Marcadorde Entradas Long y Short Javier JoseScript Logic I have integrated the following elements: Trend Indicators: I use 9-period and 21-period Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) to quickly detect the price direction. Momentum Confirmation: I combine the RSI and MACD to validate the strength and direction of the movement. Volume Filter: I only accept signals if the volume exceeds its 20-period moving average, ensuring market interest. Volatility Filter: I use the ATR (Average True Range) to avoid signals in flat or low-volatility markets. Candlestick Patterns: I include detection of engulfing patterns (bullish for "Long," bearish for "Short") as additional confirmation. Support and Resistance: I use pivot points to ensure signals occur near key levels. The result is a robust system that filters out weak signals and prioritizes the most reliable ones. Condition Details Trend (EMA Crossover) Long: The fast EMA (9) crosses above the slow EMA (21). Short: The fast EMA (9) crosses below the slow EMA (21). Momentum RSI: "Long" requires RSI > 40 (avoids extreme oversold zones). "Short" requires RSI < 60 (avoids extreme overbought zones). MACD: "Long" when the MACD line is above the signal line. "Short" when the MACD line is below the signal line. Volume The current volume must exceed the 20-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) of volume. Volatility (ATR) The current ATR must exceed its 14-period SMA to ensure sufficient market movement. Candlestick Patterns Bullish Engulfing: Confirms "Long" when the current candle closes above the previous candle’s open and engulfs its range. Bearish Engulfing: Confirms "Short" when the current candle closes below the previous candle’s open and engulfs its range. Support and Resistance Support: For "Long," the price must be near (within 1%) a previous low pivot. Resistance: For "Short," the price must be near (within 1%) a previous high pivot. Timeframes The script operates only on the specified timeframes: 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, and daily.
