[blackcat] L5 Renko MasterLevel: 5
Background
Like many people in the Tradingview community, I have been studying how to apply Renko charts to backtesting and live trading for long. However, as we all know, the official Tradingview Renko chart is not recommended for backtesting because it will lead to unrealistic backtesting results. So, I thought about developing a set of customized Renko charts that can be used for backtesting and second-level trading. This "L5 Renko Master" is one of them that I am introducing today.
In fact, this is not a Renko chart based on Tick's principle. It is based on OHLC data, because this kind of chart can be used for reliable backtesting and trading in Tradingview. Therefore, the Renko Master in this script can actually coexist with the standard Japanese candlestick chart, but the trend reversal information it prompts is based on a principle similar to Renko. When the two can coexist and produce trading signals at the same time, this is really a very interesting invention.
Function
First of all, this Renko chart can coexist in the main chart with the Japanese candlestick chart. It can support up to 1 second level of display and trading. By configuring two parameters, you can adapt it to different Time Frames.
Secondly, this Renko chart can be used for backtesting strategies, because it is essentially OHLC data. Although the absolute value of the price cannot correspond to the original OHLC one-to-one, the certainty of the trend reversal is relatively high. It can be compared with Japanese candlesticks on the timeline.
Finally, this Renko chart is embedded with a Renko intrinsic trading strategy, which can be used to locate entry points through red and green labels. This strategy supports Tradingview alerts. You can get "LONG" or "SHORT" trading reminders by creating alerts. In order to obtain a clear market structure, Zen Stroke (Autolength ZigZag) and Zen Kiss (Special Moving Averages) can be checked to be superimposed and displayed on the main chart to facilitate understanding of the temporal and spatial position of prices in the market.

Redeem Fee Life Lock Guarantee
Although I take the efforts to inform the script requesters that the best way to promote trading skills is to learn from the open source scripts I released by themself and to improve their PNIE script programming skills, there are still many people asking how to obtain or pay to use BLACKCAT L4/L5 private scripts. In fact, I do not encourage people to use Tradingview Coins ( TVC ) / Cryptocurrency to redeem the right to use BLACKCAT L4/L5 scripts. However, redeeming private script usage rights through TV Coins/ Cryptocurrency may be an effective way to force more people to learn PINE script programming seriously. And then I can concentrate on answering more valuable community questions instead of being overwhelmed by L4/L5 scripting permission reqeusts.
I would like to announce a ‘Redeem Fee Lock Guarantee’ program to further simplify the L4/L5 indicator/strategy utility offering and distinguish itself from the competition. ‘Redeem Fee lock guarantee’ is one of the major initiatives by BLACKCAT as a part of overall value packaging designed to guard BLACKCAT’s followers’ against cost-overruns and operational risks usually borne by them when it comes to PINE script innovation ecosystem. The TVCs redeemed for L4/L5 a follower signs up for with BLACKCAT is their guaranteed lifetime locked in TVC Quantity/ cryptocurrency, with no special conditions, exclusions and fine print whatsoever. Based on this scheme, I can constantly refine, expand, upgrade and improve PINE script publishing to ensure the very best experiences for my followers. The 'Redeem Fee Lock Guarantee' is a step in the direction of rewarding the valuable followers. NOTE: Every L4/L5 script redeeming service is ONLY limited to TVC or Cryptocurrency ("Win$ & Donate w/ This" Addresses displayed on script page) redeeming which the 1st signed up TVC Qty/ equivalent cryptocurrency is the lifetime offered TVC Qty/ equivalent crypto.
How to subscrible this indicator?
The script subscription period only has two options of one month or one year, and its price is floating. The latest price of the script subscription is proportional to the number of likes/agrees this script has already received. Therefore, the price of subscribing to this script shows an increasing trend, and the earliest subscribers can enjoy the price of lifetime lock to this script. As the number of likes / agrees of this script increases, the subscription fee for one month and one year will also increase linearly. Whatever, the first subscription price of the use will be locked for life.
Monthly subscription and annual subscription can be done either by tradingview coins ( TVC ) or by converting into equivalent cryptocurrency at the exchange rate (1TVC=0.01USD) for redeem.
TVC payment needs to pay TVC directly in the comments under this script. Every time I authorize a new user, I will update the latest number of subscribed users and latest price for next subscription under the script comment. If there are any conflicting scenario happened to the rules and my update. My updated price based on the rule will be the final price for next subscription. The following subscribers need to pay the corresponding amount of TVC or cryptocurrency in accordance with the latest number of users and price announced by me in accordance with the rules published.
TVC redemption is the method I strongly recommend, and I hope you can complete the redemption in the comment area of this script. This is like a blockchain structure, each comment is a block, each subscription is a chain, which is conducive to open and transparent publicity and traceability to avoid unnecessary disputes.

Renko Overlay RibbonThis script has been moved to protected from this location
due to mishandling on multiple trading platforms. Since I have proprietary strategies built on this code, it has caused me to make it protected. This is not an Invite Only script anyone can use it, however the source code is no longer visible.
All calculations are performed against calculated Renko bricks form a price chart. The engine that drives this script is complex, but robust. It attempts to garner the order of nested Renko bricks inside a time candle when multiple bricks are produced. I call these "volatile bricks". In a normal Renko chart where tick data is used, this would be displayed as rapid brick production on the screen.
It is important to choose an appropriate time frame when in Traditional mode. Setting the ribbon to 1 pip on EURUSD using a Day chart is not wise, because there is no way to know just how many 1 pip bricks were produced and in which up/down sequence. ATR mode is different because the bricks are constantly changing in size, adapting to the current ATR of the chart time interval.
Please view these old videos taken from the original page for questions on why this indicator was created in the first place:
My strategy built on this indicator can be found here:
Multiple indicators based on renko bricks on time charts can be found here (they also work on renko charts in Trading View). These are special scripts that use this indicator as the engine to generate indicators "as if" you were operating on a Renko chart.
PM for questions, enjoy.
