Strength

Relative Strength ComparisonThis script plots the ratio between a ticker and the selected index. Currently, I have US equities indexes listed + BTC. It's a great way to check for relative strength, determine if absolute highs relative to the ratio are being made, etc. Additionally, optional comparison of the RSI is included. I was just testing something out but figured I'd leave in here because why not. If you use this, enable the 1.0 line. Script is a bit slow, will try to optimize eventually.

RedK Bar Strength Inspector / Bar Strength Index (BSI)Summary ========= The Bar Strength Inspector / Bar Strength Index (BSI) is an indicator that evaluates each price bar against a user-selectable set of "strength categories" - BSI then calculates a combined score from these categories and provides an index - plotted as a centered oscillator - roughly similar to the way Relative Strength Index (RSI) works, which can be used to evaluate the strength of price move and the possibilities of trend continuation or reversal. Background ============= BSI is like a Swiss-army knife with many components - so apologies upfront if this guide gets long - and i know i will still miss few pieces that needs explaining. please alert me if something is not clear. BSI is an advanced / re-built version of my Ultimate Trader Oscillator (UTO) I continue to believe that one of the best trading tools that i can use, is a tool that can automate the visual inspection of the price chart - a tool that simulates (and quantifies in numbers/score) the way we visually look at a certain price bar, and make a judgement that "this is a strong bar, so I expect the trend down to possibly reverse" - BSI is a an attempt to achieve that. An attempt to answer a simple question (in a quantifiable manner): how strong / weak is this price bar - how does it compare to previous bars ? what is the average of that strength (or weakness) for the last few bars ?(based on the trader's preferred timeframe) How does BSI work ==================== * BSI will inspect and evaluate each bar against various (selectable) strength categories. * BSI will give a -100/+100 score against each "strength category", then combine these scores into an index and create an average of that index * the average index (also called BSI) will be calculated for both a short and long lengths * the short length represents "local / short-term" strength - plotted as a blue/orange line (with an additional signal line to make easier to "read") * the long-term reflects the broader bias (sentiment) - plotted as green/red area (or mountain) How is BSI different from UTO ============================= - I wrote BSI from the ground up to validate each scoring calculation and the resulting outcomes - so i would consider BSI to be more accurate than UTO - i wrote BSI in a way to make it a lot more flexible. BSI allows me to choose which category to include in the "inspection" - the strength categories are streamlined to reflect single bar strength, strength from bar-to-bar, and relative strength (range and volume) - they have also been chosen in a way that map to commonly used Technical Analysis concepts, to increase the value of BSI and the ability to compare with other common indicators (for example, BoP, Stochastic, Relative Volume and RSI) - added the table view - which i use mainly to track the action within the current bar - and to learn more about how to evaluate strength vs weakness with various chart patterns - UTO still represents the foundation of this work - but i will not update UTO any longer so all changes will be applied to the BSI- i have been using both UTO and BSI to guide my trading for the past few months. - couple of other features in BSI: - support for instruments with no volume data (even if the user chooses volume) - number of inspection categories will show as "7" in that case - ability to plot the individual category scores, and the total weighted score (for the selected categories) - these plots are hidden by default - ability to see the total score for all 8 (or 7 in case no volume data) categories regardless of how many are active - but only in the table view - ability to be used as both a lower (independent) and a top indicator (on the price chart) -- see below examples. Structure of the BSI Strength Categories ===================================== The first 3 inspected strength categories focus on "single bar strength", they evaluate how the bar closes compared to the low, the Balance of Power (BoP) and the relative BoP The next 3 categories focus on evaluating the bar-to-bar strength: how the bar closes compared to the low of the 2-bar range, how the bar closes compared to prior close - and the relative "shift" The last 2 "strength" categories evaluate the relative range of bar compared to recent average range and the relative volume. Understanding the bar inspection & scoring approach ================================== During inspection for each category, a score is calculated with a value between 0 to 100, then it will be made "directional" - which means that +100 represents highest possible strength score and a value of -100 is the highest possible "weakness" score Note that a 0 score doesn't mean "weak" - but rather "neutral" - this can be a bit confusing until we get used to the way BSI scoring works. Example: in relative volume, a bar associated with the lowest volume observed during the lookback length, will have a 0 relative volume score -- while a bar associated with the highest volume observed will have either a +100 or a -100 score (depending on whether it's an up or down bar) - same thing for relative range.. and so on Here are the 8 strength categories evaluated by the BSI 1 Bar closing score 2 Body : Spread (BoP) ratio 3 Relative BoP 4 2-bar Closing Score 5 2-bar Shift Ratio (Shift : 2R) 6 Relative Shift 7 Relative Range 8 Relative Volume Specific meaning of keywords / concepts (within BSI context): ====================================================== Relative : compared to recently observed values (= within Lookback # bars) Shift : the change in closing value vs prior bar Bar Spread : high - low Range : True Range ..... as in the tr() Pine function, so not to be confused with "spread" More detailed notes about scoring and calculations for each strength category are included within the code BSI Settings: ============= Here is a chart showing the main sections in the BSI Settings box and how to configure it to your preference Using the BSI: ================ - I use BSI for 2 main scenarios (1) Guiding my Day-to-day trading: the usage here is roughly similar to a volume-weighted dual-period RSI .. with a lot more options - picking and choosing between the 8 strength categories in BSI allows for 255 variations of "strength evaluations" - a trader can choose to focus only on "single bar strength" score categories, so only picks the top 3 in the settings - another trader wants to track only the strength reflected by the relative range and relative volume, so picks the lower 2 categories. another trader wants to use BSI as a volume weighted Balance of Power.. and so on. Many combinations are possible. i have added couple of charts that explain some of the "signals" we can expect from BSI (below chart) - note that i use the "Green/Red mountain plot" as the "prevailing sentiment" - as it confirms the longer term strength (or weakness). the BSI line plot reflects the short term strength and not necessarily tied directly to how the price is moving (see example in the chart - and also compare to how RSI works) - 2 important points here if you plan to use BSI in trading: set BSI up on a 1-min or 5-min chart and watch how it works to learn how it evaluates each bar - and always use BSI in combination with other indicators that you are familiar with to validate and confirm any signals (Important note: do not react to the values in the table as they change in real time - i found that to be very tempting - rather look at the broader context and the flow of the BSI / sentiment) - you can also test BSI with Paper Trading in TV - it's like a new car that you need some time to get used to :) (2) Use BSI to help learn chart / pattern analysis - watch BSI print scores against the various categories in real time to hone your chart (pattern) reading skills and how to evaluate strength of various bar shapes - for example, a bar that closes at the high but does not reach the mid point of the prior bar - strong or weak ? how about a doji or a hammer ? ...etc Chart showing main usage scenarios Example BSI in real time: ====================== I hope this work helps few fellow traders hone their trading skills, or help inspire other ideas - please let me know if you have feedback or suggestions.

Burgerized MTF BB + Reverse Engineering RSI (RERSI) + Hidden S&RThis is a mod of a script by informanerd that has helped me immensely with my trading setup. HUGE HUGE HUGE credit to him! Check him out! He gave me permission to publish this and so here I am, sharing it with you. I hope you all like it! This version is functionally essentially the same - the difference is in visualization choices and automation. Instead of selecting different timeframes, and thus having to change not one but 4 timeframes manually every time you look at a different time frame on the main chart, I found (with help from the kind community in the Pine Script chat right here on Tradingview!) a method to choose multiples so that you can have consistent results no matter what timeframe you are looking at. Default is set to multiples of 2, 4 and 8 which is the system I found works best for myself personally. I also changed visualization - crossovers are now highlighted in the background of the respective bands. By default I have chosen different transparency levels for crossovers then sitting inside the bands. This destroyed the ability to modify colors the old school way in Style tab, but I have added inputs for all the relative settings so you can modify the visual aspect to your hearts content, as I know my colors make most people barf (something I did when I was younger maybe?). Hope the nice barfs of color help you quickly see trends and reversals - I know they help me! Happy trading, no matter your timeframe! xD

Relative Strength 3D Indicator [CC]This is a custom indicator of mine loosely based on the work by James Garofallou (Stocks and Commodities Sep 2020 pg 14) and this is meant for medium to long term trend confirmations. The idea behind this indicator is to capture 3 different dimensions of trend strength. The first dimension captures the overall strength of the underlying stock vs the market (in this case the S&P 500). The second dimension captures the overall trend strength by assigning a scoring system so when all faster moving averages are stronger than slower moving averages then it gets the max points. The final dimension is the strength of the overall strength of everything so far. Buy when the indicator line turns green and sell when it turns red. Let me know if there are any other indicators or scripts you would like to see me publish!

Support and Resistance by CainKellyeCheck out my automatic support and resistance indicator that uses the EMA of price change * relative volume as the bases of pivot search. It also tells the strength of the support and resistance lines calculated using a 4 times quicker EMA and using its distance from the slower one. The strongest plotted line has the maximum opacity and the weakest has the minimum opacity inside the given range. This calculation results in an organic detection of the support and resistance prices. You can set the distance range in percentage you want to have lines calculated around the current price. You can set the lines gravity distance inside which they are snapped together: the stronger line pulls the weaker to it by using strength weighted average for the new price value. You can increase the minimum opacity value in case you only see few lines (but the maximum is 15) You can change the used price for the lines to Close or High/Low but recommended is to use the average of those two (default) The distances multiplier helps to get a birds eye view easily when using 4H (or higher) chart and a separate one to use on Daily / Weekly / Monthly for even broader view. Lines and labels are drawn near the candles so you are still able to zoom in. Labels are not drawn when their line is barely visible (transparency >= 80) This indicator has been refined on the 15 minute and 1 hour charts of BTC and other cryptos but it works well in smaller volatility markets as well if the distances are adjusted accordingly.

RedK_Momentum-based Step MA (MoStep_MA)Summary ========== This script plots a "momentum based" stepping Moving Average of various types - the idea is to visualize price moves in levels (or steps) to reduce "chart noise" - avoid getting caught in sideway moves - and enable better trade entry and exit decision. How does the MoStep_MA Work: ============================= - we first choose a "base MA" of our preferred type: WMA, EMA, SMA and Hull MA are available - this base MA will be visible in light gray on the chart and can be completely hidden (although it is useful - see chart below) - The steps are then created when a "momentum change" - expressed by a "relatively significant price move" - has been detected - either up or down A "Significant price move" is defined as a price move that is relatively large compared to the "recent" average (absolute) price moves within a certain period The "strength average" period can be adjusted - in terms of how the average is calculated (WMA, EMA, SMA), the number of bars (length) taken into consideration, as well as to include a "significance factor" of the price move relative to that average using a significance factor of 1.5 is like saying: i want a new step only when the price move is 1.5 times the average price moves within the last (x) bars the move has to be in the direction of the underlying MA trend - this is an additional condition i added, when i found that some moves will be significant but in the opposite direction and will cause a new step to be created - adding unnecessary "noise" Default settings and other tweaks =============================== By default, we use WMA for both the base MA and for calculating the average price change - other moving average types are available - the significance factor is set to 1 by default. feel free to experiment with other values and settings. here's a chart with some additional notes - the significance factor here is set to 1.5 times the average price move. - code is commented with further notes - this indicator should not be used in isolation - as usual, it should be supported by other trend and momentum indicators to get proper confirmation of signals

FAJ Dogepack Combines EMA + RSI indicator Dieses Script ist eine einfache Kombination aus RSI und EMA. Es erlaubt euch zu erkennen in welche Richtung der Trend in dem aktuellen TimeFrame geht und wie stark dieser aktuell ist. Außerdem zeigt es euch ob gerade eher die Bullen oder die Bären den Markt dominieren. Mit Hilfe des Indikators lassen sich Top und Bottom des aktuellen Time Frames erkennen. Ich Empfehle nur eine Nutzung bei BTC um Wellen besser zu erkennen. Erinnert euch daran, das ist nur eine Beta und gibt immer noch viele Fehlsignale aus, also testet es für euch selber in verschiedenen TimeFrames. This script is a simple combination of RSI and EMA. It allows you to see in which direction the trend is going in the current time frame and how strong it is currently. It also shows you whether the bulls or the bears are dominating the market. With the help of the indicator, the top and bottom of the current time frame can be recognized. recommended only use in BTC to better detect waves. remember that it is in beta and still sends many false signals so you have to test it well in several time periods.

Alpha & BetaHow to use Alpha(α)? If Alpha is positive the stock outperforms, if the value is negative means the stock underperforms. α < 0: The investment has earned too little for its risk (or, was too risky for the return) α = 0: The investment has earned a return adequate for the risk taken α > 0: The investment has a return in excess of the reward for the assumed risk How to use Beta(β)? β = 1: Exactly as volatile as the index β > 1: More volatile than the index β < 1 > 0: Less volatile than the index β = 0: Uncorrelated to the index β < 0: Negatively correlated to the index β > 2: Trending stock Higher the β higher risk/reward Example: If the beta is 1.1, the share price is like to move by 10% more than the index Trading Tip Choose a stock with Alpha greater than 0 and Beta greater than 1.9 for intraday in 5min timeframe for long positions Remember that such stocks will have high risk and high reward Shortlist stocks with Beta greater than 1.9 for next day in 5min timeframe

Inverse BandsThis was the result of quite some time spent examining how much information could be gleamed by studying the interactions between Keltner Channels, STARC Bands and Bollinger Bands. I was surprised by the results. First of all, there are four fills that are black. Set the transparency of those to 0 and you'll see this indicator the way that it's meant to be seen. Those fills belong to unused sections of the Bollinger Bands. There are two clouds which represent STARC Bands and the Keltner Channel. There is some delay when they flip from bullish (green) to bearish (red), but they are indicative of the trend. The space between them is black and the narrower that space is, the greater volatility is. Because of this, we don't need the exterior Bollinger Bands. The Bollinger Bands remain visible as the yellow interior clouds on the top cloud and the blue interior clouds on the bottom cloud. Often, the thicker the yellow or blue cloud is, the less severe a throwback from a given trend reversal will be. Often the thinner that yellow or blue cloud is, the more severe the trend reversal will be. If price is rising into a thin interior yellow cloud, the following dip will be substantial. If price action dips towards a thicker interior blue cloud, often the pump following that dump will be less enthusiastic. We preserve the Keltner Channel and STARC bands as our cloud because the way that they interact with the three basis lines yields a lot of information. The yellow Bollinger basis line tells us about trend strength. The closer the BB basis line is to the top of the top cloud or the bottom of the bottom cloud, the stronger the trend is. When it enters the cloud very close to the bottom of the bottom cloud, you know you're looking at a strong pump, and vice versa when it's close to the top of the top cloud. The purple Keltner Channel basis line and orange STARC Band basis line can forecast short term trend changes one candlestick in advance by contacting any line in either cloud. The moment either basis line touches or crosses any boundary of the clouds, you know that the next candle will change directions. In an uptrend, a touch or cross means the next candle will have a lower high point. In a downtrend, a cross or touch means the next candle will have a higher high point. This is most useful in scalping. It'd be pretty easy to slap some crossover alerts on to this and useful considering that they come a candle in advance. Feel free to further explore and develop this.

TSI Strength Meter vs USD with divergenceThis indicator consists of two lines. One is a gray line (USD) and the asset indicator is green or red. The basis of this indicator is the true strength indicator (TSI) with parameters 5,15. Both line sets are based on a TSI (5,15). The lookback period is for new highs / new lows. Default value is 200 periods. GREEN/RED LINE The first that is green and red is whatever you choose to display ( BTC in this case). The green and red lines indicate going up or going down. GRAY LINE The gray line is the US Dollar . So everything is relative to that by default. ZERO LINE CROSSES These are momentum shifts. If you see a crossover of both around the zero line, its a good indication there is a change in momentum and a reversal of trend. NEW HIGHS NEW LOWS There are 4 new colors added to this indicator. For the asset you are viewing, a lime color means new highs within the lookback period. A new low is indicated by a yellow line color. The new lows for the USD are white for new lows within the lookback period and blue line for the new highs. DIVERGENCE You can also spot divergences easily. For example, if a lime color is seen on the indicator line, that means "new high" but if it occurs below the last "new high" it means the asset is going up to new highs but the indicator is showing us that the readings are below the previous new highs, indicating a negative divergence. The same goes for the yellow colored lines. higher yellows mean positive divergence. And with the US Dollar , blue lines dropping means a negative divergence in the US Dollar , while white lines moving up means a positive dollar divergence. INTERPRETATION Examples: If you see a green and sometimes red line of the asset indicator and a gray line that drops below the zero line; it may mean the asset is rising and the trend is up. If you see a green and red line below the zero line and with a gray line above the zero line , it indicates there is a negative trend. If you suddenly see blue lines on the USD, this means its hitting new lows. If these blue lines then start to slowly move downwards; then we have a positive divergence. If that were to be followed by the green line crossing the zero line, its a pretty good be that the trend is changing and its a very good buying oportunity.

RedK Strength of MovementThis is a quick indicator i wrote to inspect the strength of price movement and show when what i consider to be "a quality trend" has been established. the code is open and commented - the "math concept" is really simple and i'm not sure if this has already been coded before :) - my apologies if it was. my main goal was to identify opportunities to establish "simple, straight" long call or put positions for the stocks i follow - what i noticed thru the years is that some opportunities will present themselves to take these basic option positions but they are "rare", maybe once or twice a year -- for example, in 2020, TSLA presented 2 such opportunities around the split and the index inclusion - so i needed an indicator that exposes these setups. if you can time yourself with these setups, they are incredibly rewarding. these setups will happen when the SoM reaches 100% (in either directions) while it's in agreement with the prevailing trend (hence the need to use the SoM with a MACD or something like the Ribbon) - if the SoM hits the 100% in one direction and the trend is not in the same direction, that signal is invalid. see the chart for some examples. a quick useful observation, is that the SoM will sometimes also act as a leading indicator for an imminent change in trend direction, which makes sense .. given that the SoM relies on exposing the "relative" movement or change of price (close for example) - thru the use of the stoch() function - and that this "change value" will usually expand in the direction of a strong trend and starts to contract ahead of a reversal. Please fee free to use this code, leverage the indicator, or give feedback i may come back later and update this with some features (like making this volume-weighted) best of luck!

RMI + Triple HMRSI + Double EVWRSI + TERSI + CMO StrategyThis is a strange experimental strategy WIP that I decided to upload an early version to share some of what I am working on. Just one script of a few. It combines Chande Momentum with RMI and some weird ones I am experimenting with - Triple Hull MA RSI, Double Exponential + Volume Weighted RSI, Triple Exponential RSI. And to top it off, a final oscillator that combines the THMRSI with the RMI. The main intention here, currently, is to test the usefulness of each on different timeframes and values. Currently it is considered to buy when all are below their threshold and sell when all are above, with the chande momentum crossing its line as the final confirmation. For now there is no individual for each of the unique elements included. I am going to likely use this is a working house project to test other experimental indicators in the future. It may be some of these are better suited for long term but I do think they have valid uses in checking short and long term momentum at the very least. I copied the RMI from Everget.

Composite Any Currency Strength IndexThis is a flexible currency strength indicator and you can adjust it to any currency you wish 'to measure'. By default, it is set to measure USD major pairs. Indicator calculates every pair you list, and plots one composite chart in the form of Heikin Ashi candles. Basically, you will get USD index in this case. Similarly, you can get AUD, EUR, CAD, JPY, CHF, etc indexes by specifying corresponding symbols. Remember about base and quote currencies and location of each for correct calculations. Simple adjustments in the script needed if you want to value USD by using USD in both base and quote (counter) currencies. For example, when calculating USD strength by looking into USDJPY (not into JPYUSD) symbols, you will need to add minus "-" before corresponding security in the script itself, not in the Settings Inputs. Default study script (with JPYUSD): // Inputs ... string sec3 = input(defval="JPYUSD", type=input.symbol, title="Symbol") ... h_sec3 = security(heikinashi(sec3), timeframe.period, high) l_sec3 = security(heikinashi(sec3), timeframe.period, low) o_sec3 = security(heikinashi(sec3), timeframe.period, open) c_sec3 = security(heikinashi(sec3), timeframe.period, close) Adjusted study script with USDJPY: // Inputs ... string sec3 = input(defval="USDJPY", type=input.symbol, title="Symbol") ... h_sec3 = -security(heikinashi(sec3), timeframe.period, high) l_sec3 = -security(heikinashi(sec3), timeframe.period, low) o_sec3 = -security(heikinashi(sec3), timeframe.period, open) c_sec3 = -security(heikinashi(sec3), timeframe.period, close) Unfortunately, I am not a coder specialist and perhaps someone here could improve this indicator for easier and more friendly adjustments. But thanks to variety of symbols on TradingView , you can ignore any changes in the script, and just use symbols with corresponding counter currency offered by this great platform. Bollinger Bands, 2 x RMA, 4 x SMA/EMA were added for deeper analysing of the index. Other indicators with ability to select data sources (like CCI, StochRSI, Momentum etc) can be separately added to a current chart, but use Composite Any Currency Strength Index data as the source for analysing displayed pair, i.e. by selecting source - Composite Any Currency Strength Index: SMA Close or EMA HLC. Thank you and good luck everyone!

Exponential Regression Slope Annualized with R-squared HistogramMy other indicator shows the linear regression slope of the source. This one finds the exponential regression slope and optionally multiplies it by R-squared and optionally annualizes it. Multiplying by R-squared makes sure that the price movement was significant in order to avoid volatile movements that can throw off the slope value. Annualizing the exponential slope will let you see how much percentage you will make in a year if the price continues at its current pace. The annualized number is the number of trading days in a year. This and the length might need adjusting for the extra bars that might be in futures or other markets. The number does not have to be a year. For example, it can be a month if you set the number to 20 or so trading days to find how much you would make in a month if price continues at its current pace, etc. This can also be used as an alternative to relative strength or rate of change.

Waters-Williams A/D OscillatorThis is the A/D oscillator, design by Jim Waters and Larry Williams. As any other oscillator, it measures the strength of the buy and sell pressure. If a candle opens at the low, and closes at it's high, the signal given by the oscillator is 100. If it opens at high and closes at low, the signal will be 0. Since it completely disregard other values, it is common to use a smoothed version of it, which is the average of the last n values, just like the stochastic oscillator. Tho it doesn't have much use for positioners or swing traders, day traders and scalpers can use it in confluence with volume to enter in a counter trend trade.
