Divergences RefurbishedJust as "a butterfly can flap its wings over a flower in China and cause a hurricane in the Caribbean" (Edward Lorenz), small divergences in markets can signal big trading opportunities.
█Introduction
This is a script forked from LonesomeTheBlue's Divergence for Many Indicators v4.
It is a script that checks for divergence between price and many indicators.
In this version, I added more indicators and also added 40 symbols to check for divergences.
More info on the original script can be found here:
█ Improvements
The following improvements have been implemented over v4:
1. Added parameters to customize indicators.
2. Added new indicators:
- Stoch RSI
- Volume Oscillator
- PVT (Price Volume Trend)
- Ultimate Oscillator
- Fisher Transform
- Z-Score/T-Score
3. Now there is the possibility of using 2 external indicators.
4. New option to show tooltips inside labels.
This allows you to save space on the screen if you choose the option to only show the number of divergences or just the abbreviations.
5. New option to show additional text next to the indicator name.
This allows for grouping of indicators and symbols and better visualization, whether through emojis, for example.
6. Added 40 customizable symbols to check for divergences.
7. Option "show only the first letter" of the indicator replaced by: "show the abbreviation of the indicator".
Reason: the indicator abbreviation is more informative and easier to read.
8. Script converted to PineScript version 5.
█ CONCEPTS
Below I present a brief description of the available indicators.
1. Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD):
Shows the difference between short-term and long-term exponential moving averages.
2. MACD Histogram:
Shows the difference between MACD and its signal line.
3. Relative Strength Index (RSI):
Measures the relative strength of recent price gains to recent price losses of an asset.
4. Stochastic Oscillator (Stoch):
Compares the current price of an asset to its price range over a specified time period.
5. Stoch RSI:
Stochastic of RSI.
6. Commodity Channel Index (CCI):
Measures the relationship between an asset's current price and its moving average.
7. Momentum: Shows the difference between the current price and the price a few periods ago.
Shows the difference between the current price and the price of a certain period in the past.
8. Chaikin Money Flow (CMF):
A variation of A/D that takes into account the daily price variation and weighs trading volume accordingly. Accumulation/Distribution (A/D) identifies buying and selling pressure by tracking the flow of money into and out of an asset based on volume patterns.
9. On-Balance Volume (OBV):
Identify divergences between trading volume and an asset's price.
Sum of trading volume when the price rises and subtracts volume when the price falls.
10. Money Flow Index (MFI):
Measures volume pressure in a range of 0 to 100.
Calculates the ratio of volume when the price goes up and when the price goes down.
11. Volume Oscillator (VO):
Identify divergences between trading volume and an asset's price. Ratio of change of volume, from a fast period in relation to a long period.
12. Price-Volume Trend (PVT):
Identify the strength of an asset's price trend based on its trading volume. Cumulative change in price with volume factor. The PVT calculation is similar to the OBV calculation, but it takes into account the percentage price change multiplied by the current volume, plus the previous PVT value.
13. Ultimate Oscillator (UO):
Combines three different time periods to help identify possible reversal points.
14. Fisher Transform (FT):
Normalize prices into a Gaussian normal distribution.
15. Z-Score/T-Score: Shows the difference between the current price and the price a few periods ago. I is a statistical measurement that indicates how many standard deviations a data point is from the mean of a data set.
When to use t-score instead of z-score? When the sample size is small (length < 30).
Here, the use of z-score or t-score is chosen automatically based on the length parameter.
█ What to look for
The operation is simple. The script checks for divergences between the price and the selected indicators.
Now with the possibility of using multiple symbols, it is possible to check divergences between different assets.
A well-described view on divergences can be found in this cheat sheet:
◈ Examples with SPY ETF versus indicators:
1. Regular bullish divergence with external indicator:
1. Regular bearish divergence with Fisher Transform:
1. Positive hidden divergence with Momentum indicator:
1. Negative hidden divergence with RSI:
◈ Examples with SPY ETF versus other symbols:
1. Regular bearish divergence with European Stoch Market:
2. Regular bearish divergence with DXY inverted:
3. Regular bullish divergence with Taiwan Dollar:
4. Regular bearish divergence with US10Y (10-Year US Treasury Note):
5. Regular bullish divergence with QQQ ETF (Nasdaq 100):
6. Regular bullish divergence with ARKK ETF (ARK Innovation):
7.Positive hidden divergence with RSP ETF (S&P 500 Equal Weight):
8. Negative hidden divergence with EWZ ETF (Brazil):
◈ Examples with BTCUSD versus other symbols:
1. Regular bearish divergence with BTCUSDLONGS from Bitfinex:
2. Regular bearish divergence with BLOK ETF (Amplify Transformational Data Sharing):
3. Negative hidden divergence with NATGAS (Natural Gas):
4. Positive hidden divergence with TOTALDEFI (Total DeFi Market Cap):
█ Conclusion
The symbols available to check divergences were chosen in such a way as to cover the main markets, in the most generic way possible.
You can adjust them according to your needs.
A trader in the American market, for example, could add more ETFs, American stocks, and sectoral indices, such as the XLF (Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund), the XLK (Technology Select Sector SPDR), etc.
On the other hand, a cryptocurrency trader could add more currency pairs and sector indicators, such as BTCUSDSHORTS (Bitfinex), USDT.D (Tether Dominance), etc.
If the chart becomes too cluttered, you can use the option to show only the number of divergences or only the indicator abbreviations.
Or even disable certain indicators and symbols, if they are not of interest to you.
I hope this script is useful.
Don't forget to support LonesomeTheBlue's work too.
Pivot points and levels
BDL Range AlertAs soon as you call this indicator, it asks you to define the range. Select the bottom and the top of the range. Next, set your alarm. There are 3 alarm options:
1: Bottom of the range breakout
2: Top of the range breakout
3: Bottom or top of the range breakout
As soon as you close a candle outside the selected range, only then will the alarm be triggered.

Nitin Swing TradingThis is a CPR which indicates pivot points based on monthly price action.
The Orange line acts as a resistance area, blue lines act as pivot point/CPR and green one is support.
One can study retrospective chart to analyse how market has respected these Support and Resistance levels.
A guide on how to trade using this indicator?
1. If you see the resistance is broken after multiple attempt - We can Go Long
2.If you see price going down below CPR, We can Go Short
3.If you see price taking support at support level - We can Go Long.
Risk reward should always be 1:1 then gradually increase it to 1:2 & 1:3
It is advised to consult with your financial advisor before taking any trade just based on any indicator. You have to manage risk before entering any trade.
Psychological Support/Resistence [BigBeluga]The Psychological Support/Resistance indicator aims to provide the user with hypothetical support and resistance zones that are likely to provoke a strong reaction in price, either in both directions, providing good bouncing zones or significant movements once those levels are breached.
🔶 CALCULATION
The script takes into consideration the total number of sequential candles moving in the same direction, as determined by the user's settings. When this sequence is identified, a level is created.
A level is considered broken when the candle's close is above the top/bottom of the level.
Users have the option to select the width of the area based on the Average (AVG), Open, or Close.
AVG will provide the average width of the level of the area.
Close will offer a broader range to work with.
Open will provide a very narrow area.
🔶 METHODOLOGY
The idea behind these areas is that the price will be more likely to produce either a substantial move in the ongoing direction or, when breached, a strong price reaction.
The more the support level is touched or tested, the more likely it is to break.
The longer it has been since its creation and the less it has been tested, the more likely it is to offer strong support or resistance.
Wicks starting to close above the level will indicate a potential breakout to the upside or downside if a candle manages to close above it.
🔶 INPUTS
Users have the option to determine the number of sequential candles.
Users also have the option to decide how many zones to display on the chart.
Color changes are possible.
The possibility to show volume on the creation of the zone is included."
Kviateq - Session Opening RangesThis indicator plots the opening range for each of the market sessions.
Users can chose the length of the opening range, as well as change the time for each of the sessions.
This script is based on opening range breakout strategies, which entail taking a long/short depending on which way the price breaks out.
To trade it, we wait for the session opening range to print, and then we enter upon a candle close.
It's meant to be used on lower timeframes, ideally one hour or lower.
It can be used by itself, but it works even better in combination with other indicators, like moving averages.

Earnings LevelsI am proud to announce that the formerly secret "Key Earnings Levels" graphing tool will be freely available to TradingView users whereas before it was only available by monthly or annual subscription since its invention here at TradingView many years ago by Tim West. TradingView code writers wrote the original code for using this powerful tool and then Johannes Falkenburg re-wrote the code several years ago.
The most important FOUR days a year in a stock chart are the days that the company gives its quarterly update. Since the GRAND majority of companies have earnings, the indicator is called the "Key Earnings Level", or KEL for short. The unique part of the release of the quarterly update is that it can be "before the open" or "after the close" and the price action leading up to the earnings and immediately after the earnings are useful for future reference, as you'll see shortly.
The Key Earnings indicator plots a triangle for the range around the day before and the day after earnings and draws a mid-point line to capture the over/under level for that report. That mid-point line is then extended into the future for a minimum of one quarter until the next earnings report and as long as a year with the current code.
This triangle plot allows you to see how a stock is trading RELATIVE TO where it was trading when earnings were announced and when a glimpse into the current quarter along with projections for the upcoming year.
Simply put: Key Earnings Levels are the easiest way to see how a stock is doing relative to the most important four days a year.
You can devise your own trading strategies around these levels, but I want you to have this information so you can see it and know it too. I've kept this little secret of Key Hidden Levels to myself and my followers in the Key Hidden Levels Chat Room here at TradingView for far too long. I have occasionally published charts with the Key Earnings Levels but have not made the code freely available to TradingView subscribers.
If anyone has paid me for access to these indicators and wants a refund, I will be glad to do that. This is too important to keep from everyone any longer. I think it is essential to make this available to everyone to make sure we all have the most advantage we can get when investing and trading in the markets.
I hope you can all find the powerful benefit from using Key Earnings Levels and please thank Johannes Falkenburg aka @Vollchaot here at TradingView for writing the latest version of this code.
The idea itself came from using TradingView and the powerful graphing and layout features here to track our observations and to do research. Thank you TradingView for such a great product.
I look forward to answering any questions.
Sincerely,
Tim West
Pivot Points [MisterMoTA]The Pivot Points indicator by MisterMoTA allow users to get pivots points calculated from last candle high, low and close on any timeframe from 1 minute to weekly.
This will help users that are trading ins small timeframes to see the pivots that are near their timeframes and not only daily timeframe.
Here is an example on the chart from nex image the timeframe is set to 1 minute and pivot points displayed are at 15 minutes :
The users have control on pivots colors, pivot labels colors, text color from labels, decimal numbers displayed in the labels and style of the pivots lines.
Please follow me for other script like this one.
Kind regards,

Double Tops & Bottoms [QuantVue]This indicator is designed to detect and plot Double Tops and Double Bottoms, by setting the initial high or low using standard pivot points.
Double Tops
A Double Top is a bearish reversal pattern, typically found when an uptrend returns back to a prior peak. It signifies a potential turning point or resistance level and could potentially reverse in direction.
The pattern is confirmed as a Double Top when the price breaks above the resistance level, but closes below it. A decisive close below this level is seen as a confirmation of the bearish trend.
Double Bottoms
A Double Bottom, on the other hand, is a bullish reversal pattern typically found after a downtrend. It signals a potential turning point or support level where the price has bottomed and could potentially reverse upwards.
The pattern is confirmed as a Double Bottom when the price breaks below the support level, but closes above it. A decisive close above this level is viewed as a confirmation of the bullish trend.
Indicator Features
🔹Double Top Detection: When a double top is identified, a downward-pointing triangle will be plotted above the bar, and if the alerts are enabled, a notification will be triggered.
🔹Double Bottom Detection: When a double bottom is identified, an upward-pointing triangle will be plotted below the bar, and if the alerts are enabled, a notification will be triggered.
🔹Pivot Lookback: Defines the number of bars to the left and right of the pivot that must be lower/higher to qualify as a pivot.
🔹Maximum Length Between Tops/Bottoms: Maximum number of bars between two tops/bottoms to be considered a double top or bottom.
🔹Style Settings: Allows the user to customize the appearance of the lines indicating the tops/bottoms. Options include color selection, line style (dotted, dashed, or solid), and line thickness.
🔹Alerts: The user can enable or disable alerts for Double Top and Double Bottom.
Give this indicator a BOOST and COMMENT your thoughts!
We hope you enjoy.
Cheers!
Pivot HL ~ Om BordaThe Pivot High Low indicator is a technical analysis tool used in financial markets. It identifies significant price levels where an asset's trend may reverse. A Pivot High occurs when an asset's price reaches a peak and then declines. Conversely, a Pivot Low is when the price hits a trough before rising. Traders use these points to make decisions about buying or selling assets. ~ Om Borda
Dev's PDH PDL super strategyHave plotted Previous day High, previous day low, previous day close and previous day open. Moreover Previous month High and low are plotted. Background changes are made as per this concept: when the current day's price is above PDL and below PDH, a green background when the current price is above both PDL and PDH, and a red background when the current day's price is below both PDL and PDH.
Current day High and low are plotted as white lines, which are dynamic and change once new high or low forms.
Expanded Camarilla Levels (R5 + R6)Just the usual cam pivot points updated to have a few more levels.
Added R5/S5 and S5/S6
AD's - Indecisive Candles, volume spikes, gapsThis script identifies price pivots, volume spikes (more than twice of 20 SMA vol) & gaps (both up & down)
Drawing multiple horizontal levelsThis is a very simple indicator to draw multiple price levels or any kind of horizontal levels on your chart.
The input format is by default: 4550.00, 4575.25, 4580.25
The seperator can be changed in the settings.
Greetings to the MC family.
ICT True Day Range [MK]The indicator displays the following:
Vertical line day separator from 00:00 to 00:00 EST
High/Low lines for the days true range from 00:00 to EOD
Opening line from 00:00 EST to EOD
Opening line from 08:30 EST to EOD
Weekly Opening line from Sunday open at 18:00 EST to last bar in the week
Monday range high/low/mid line, which can be extended to EOW
Text displaying Days of the Week
All functions can be fully customized regarding color/style and line width.
Below shows image of indicator with day separator: (it didn't show on the main chart despite being enabled?)
All of the above are to be used to give the user all the tools necessary to analyze the following concepts which can be studied on ICTs you tube channel:
Weekly profile, eg, has the weekly manipulated below the weekly open to then rise the rest of the week?
Daily profile, eg, has the day manipulated below the daily open (00:00 EST) to then rise the rest of the day?
Daily liquidity grab, eg has the current day taken PDH/PDL at the start of the current day?
Daily targets, eg will the current day end up taking liquidity from the PDH/PDL?
Monday range, will Mondays high/low range act as the accumulation phase of the weekly AMD profile?
Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday/Friday reversal, eg, does a day of the week line up with a HTF target and a high volatility news event which could see price reverse after the manipulation phase of the weekly AMD profile?
In strong trending markets, will the 0830 open line be used in the NY session as manipulation reference in the same manner as the 00:00 line is normally used?
The above examples of how the indicator 'could' be used are not the only ways to use the indicator.
The indicator is by no means a trading strategy on its own. Users should be fully aware of ICT concepts and have performed extensive back-testing before using the indicator with live accounts.
Auto Fibonacci Levels [MisterMoTA]Using Auto Fibonacci Levels indicator users can find automatically Fibonacci Extension points where price can go after a period of consolidation (sideways or can find points for support/resistance on retracement levels that can be displayed for any defined range.
The script is different from others by letting users to define a consolidation range, user can input the time when range ends and the number of candles for looking back from the defined time, default value is 16 candles.
Users have total control over range definitions, fibonacci numbers, colors and option to show or hide the lines.
The user can choose to display Fibomacci Bullish Expansion levels and also Fibonacci Bearish Expansion level.
After a move hit a resistance or support can be choosed a range to find retracement levels, Bullish or Bearish retracement levels can be displayed checking the options from the indicator pannel.
Here are few examples of usage:
1. Bullish expansion (extension)
2. Bearish expansion (extension)
3. Bullish Retracement
4. Bearish Retracement
The indicator can be used on any timeframe for any pairs, stocks, crypto, forex.
Daily Pivots with Fakeout Protection█ OVERVIEW
The "Daily Pivots with Fakeout Protection" indicator is a powerful tool designed to help traders identify potential price breakouts and pivot levels on daily charts. This indicator calculates and displays daily pivot points along with breakout lines that are adjusted to provide a certain level of protection against fakeouts, which are false price movements that can mislead traders.
█ FEATURES
• Pivot Timeframe Selection: You can choose the timeframe for the pivot calculations. The default is set to daily (D), but you have the flexibility to select other timeframes as well.
• Fakeout Protection: A percentage-based parameter allows you to define the amount of protection you want against fakeouts. This helps filter out potentially unreliable breakouts.
• Bullish and Bearish Signals: The indicator distinguishes between bullish and bearish conditions by comparing the closing price to the daily high and low.
• Breakout Signals: Triangular symbols (upward and downward) appear below and above bars to signal potential breakout points. These are based on the closing price crossing the adjusted breakout lines.
• Visual Representation: Pivot points, daily high, and daily low are plotted on the chart, with distinctive line styles and colors for easy identification.
• Background Highlighting: The background color of the chart changes when a new period begins, helping you quickly recognize the start of a new trading day.
• Color-Coded Zones: The indicator colors the background around the closing price differently based on whether the market is bullish (green) or bearish (red).
█ HOW TO USE
1 — Apply the "Daily Pivots with Fakeout Protection" indicator to your TradingView chart.
2 — Customize the parameters like pivot timeframe and fakeout protection percentage according to your trading preferences.
3 — Watch for the triangular breakout symbols that appear above and below bars, indicating potential breakout points.
4 — Keep an eye on the pivot points, daily high, and daily low lines to understand price levels relevant to the current trading day.
5 — Use the background color changes to quickly identify the beginning of a new trading day and any potential shifts in market sentiment.
Note:
• This indicator is designed for daily charts but can be adjusted to work with other timeframes as well.
• Be cautious of relying solely on breakout signals; consider using additional technical and fundamental analysis for confirmation.
Start integrating the "Daily Pivots with Fakeout Protection" indicator into your trading strategy to enhance your ability to identify breakouts and pivot levels more effectively.
Psychological Levels @TradingDisciplesPsychological levels are market price levels which are often key levels in forex denoted by round numbers. These round numbers frequently act as levels of support and/or resistance.
Psychological support and resistance consistently work because of fundamental human disposition. Human beings value simplicity; from a trading perspective this means valuing whole numbers. Traders often use these numbers as entry, exit or stop levels. These stops and limits can alter order flow and price changes.
Traders will often call these whole number intervals ‘double-zeros,’ as these prices are at even numbers such as 1.31000 on EUR/USD, 1.57000 on GBP/USD or 132.00 on GBP/JPY. The chart below identifies the ‘double-zeros’ on the current USD/JPY chart which are the Main Psychological Levels. Some traders will take this a step further by looking at the number directly in the middle of these whole numbers or ‘the fifties.’ These levels, such as 1.31500 on EUR/USD or 131.50 on GBP/JPY can often come into play in the same manner as the ‘double-zeros which are also called the Sub Psychological Levels.’
My powerful tool designed to assist traders in making more informed and strategic trading decisions. This indicator is meticulously engineered to identify and plot psychological levels on trading charts automatically. These levels hold significant importance in the minds of traders, often influencing price movements and market behavior.
How to use:
It is very easy to use, just input it on your chart then you will click the settings and then click the style and uncheck the bar colors, you can also check the sub psychological levels if it isn't displayed on the chart....Incase you don't need maybe the sub psychological level or the main psychological level you can uncheck any of them and you can also select the color of the line you want in the drop down menu.

Thank You
Liquidity Heatmap [BigBeluga]The Liquidity Heatmap is an indicator designed to spot possible resting liquidity or potential stop loss using volume or Open interest.
The Open interest is the total number of outstanding derivative contracts for an asset—such as options or futures—that have not been settled. Open interest keeps track of every open position in a particular contract rather than tracking the total volume traded.
The Volume is the total quantity of shares or contracts traded for the current timeframe.
🔶 HOW IT WORKS
Based on the user choice between Volume or OI, the idea is the same for both.
On each candle, we add the data (volume or OI) below or above (long or short) that should be the hypothetical liquidation levels; More color of the liquidity level = more reaction when the price goes through it.
Gradient color is calculated between an average of 2 points that the user can select. For example: 500, and the script will take the average of the highest data between 500 and 250 (half of the user's choice), and the gradient will be based on that.
If we take volume as an example, a big volume spike will mean a lot of long or short activity in that candle. A liquidity level will be displayed below/above the set leverage (4.5 = 20x leverage as an example) so when the price revisits that zone, all the 20x leverage should be liquidated.
Huge volume = a lot of activity
Huge OI = a lot of positions opened
More volume / OI will result in a stronger color that will generate a stronger reaction.
🔶 ROUTE
Here's an example of a route for long liquidity:
Enable the filter = consider only green candles.
Set the leverage to 4.5 (20x).
Choose Data = Volume.
Process:
A green candle is formed.
A liquidity level is established.
The level is placed below to simulate the 20x leverage.
Color is applied, considering the average volume within the chosen area.
Route completed.
🔶 FEATURE
Possibility to change the color of both long and short liquidity
Manual opacity value
Manual opacity average
Leverage
Autopilot - set a good average automatically of the opacity value
Enable both long or short liquidity visualization
Filtering - grab only red/green candle of the corresponding side or grab every candle
Data - nzVolume - Volume - nzOI - OI
🔶 TIPS
Since the limit of the line is 500, it's best to plot 2 scripts: one with only long and another with only short.
🔶 CONCLUSION
The liquidity levels are an interesting way to think about possible levels, and those are not real levels.
MarketSmith IndicatorThis script provides you with several indicators that will enable you to mimic MarketSmith charts, even with a free TradingView plan.
You can use this script with my ' EPS & Sales ' indicator.
MarketSmith-style bars
The script offers an original approach to managing candlesticks within the code, making them almost identical to those on MarketSmith.
For a perfect display, select ' Bars ' on your chart and set the opacity of your candles to 100% to display only the candles proposed by this indicator.
If you don't want them, you can simply disable them in the ' Style ' tab by unchecking 'MarketSmith Bars' and 'Chars'.
These candles are designed to be used with a fix chart. (No beautiful result with zooming in or out.)
Normally, the display will still be correct by right-clicking, and ' Reset Chart '.
Simple customizable moving averages
With automatic distinction of the weekly time unit. You can choose to display them or not, select the calculation method and modify their length via the panel.
The RS Rating indicator
I've integrated the RS Rating indicator into this script, as the RS Rating is a fundamental component of this layout.
High and valley points
These points are used by MarketSmith to detect bases, patterns, cup & handle.
Designed for US Market only you won't be able to screen correctly the India market for example.
Consolidation Spotter Multi Time FrameThis tool is designed for traders looking to spot areas of consolidation on their charts across various time frames. It highlights these consolidation areas using visually appealing boxes, making it easier to identify potential breakout or breakdown zones.
How To Use:
Spotting Consolidation: When you see a box form on your chart, this represents a consolidation zone. Within this zone, the price is moving sideways without a strong upward or downward trend.
Anticipating Breakouts & Breakdowns: Watch the price as it approaches the edges of the box. A movement outside the box can signal a potential breakout (if above the box) or a breakdown (if below the box). This is where momentum shifts can happen.
Momentum Confirmation: Once the price clearly moves out of the box, it indicates a momentum shift. If the price moves upwards out of the box, this can be seen as bullish momentum. Conversely, if the price moves downwards out of the box, this can be seen as bearish momentum.
To use the tool effectively, adjust the settings to suit your trading style, choose your preferred visual theme, and watch as the script highlights key consolidation areas on your chart.
Tip: To visualize fractals, consider using multiple instances of the "Consolidation Spotter" indicator, each set to a different timeframe. This approach allows you to observe consolidations nested within larger consolidations, offering deeper insights into market structures. 😉
Key Levels (Daily Percentages)OVERVIEW
This indicator automatically identifies and progressively draws daily percentage levels, normalized to the first market bar.
Percentages are one of the most common ways to measure price movement (outside price itself). Being able to visually reference these levels helps contextualize price action, in addition to giving us a glimpse into how algos might "see" the market.
This script is most useful on charts with smaller time frames (1 to 5 minutes). This is not ideal for medium or larger time frames (greater than 5 minutes).
INPUTS
You can configure:
• Line size, style, colors and maximum length
• Label colors and visibility
• Fractional and intra level visibility
• Bidirectional zone parameters (custom range and extended anomalies)
• Normalization source
• Price Proximity features
• Market Hours and Time Zone
INSPIRATION
Broad Assumptions:
• +/- 70% of days move 1%, 20% of days move 1-2%, and 10% of days have moves exceeding 2%.
• +/- 10-20% of days trend, with moves ≥ 1%.
• All trading strategies are effectively scalping, mean reversion, or trend.
• Humans program algos to capitalize on these assumptions, using percentages to mange / execute trades.
IND-Range Box [Salar Kamjoo]Hello to all dear traders,
One of the trading methods in financial markets is Range Box Trading. Ranges are specific price levels where the market reaches equilibrium, meaning the buying force is roughly equal to the selling force. Consequently, the market neither moves significantly upwards nor downwards; it oscillates within a particular range. The indicator I have designed for you is based on this concept. It utilizes the number of candles and their oscillations to identify specific ranges on the chart. These ranges are drawn based on the maximum and minimum of the box.
The optimal time for trading and using this indicator is when the market is less volatile, specifically outside of the overlapping London and New York sessions. Additionally, be cautious during news releases as they might lead to stop-hunting scenarios. Therefore, the best time to employ this indicator is when the market is relatively calm.
This indicator has 4 settings:
Setting Number 1: Number of Candles
This setting determines the number of candles involved in calculating the range boxes. A higher value indicates longer range boxes will be identified for you, while a lower value results in quicker recognition of range boxes. However, a smaller value may reduce the reliability of the identified range boxes. The recommended value for this setting may vary for each currency pair and time frame.
s3.tradingview.com
Setting Number 2: Range Percentage
This setting determines the maximum percentage difference between the high and low of the identified range box. (These settings are interconnected with Setting Number 3, as your choice in Setting Number 3—whether to base the range box calculation on the high or low, or on the candle close—will impact how this range percentage is applied.)
s3.tradingview.com
Setting Number 3: Calculation Basis
This setting determines whether the maximum width of the range box is based on the highest or lowest points, or if it is calculated based on the closing prices of the candles.
s3.tradingview.com
s3.tradingview.com
