YTC - Swing Highs & LowsThis Indicator Plots Swing Highs & Swing Lows based on Lance Beggs of (Your Trading Coach) definition:
A Swing High (SH) is a price bar high preceed by two lower highs (LH) and followed by two lower highs (LH)
In the event of multiple candles forming equal highs, this will still be defined as a swing high, provided that there are two candles with lower highs both preceding and following the multiple candle formation.
[Tutorial] RSIwings (swings) for find pyramiding entries ->hh,llThis indicator show higher high + higher low and lower high + lower low -> based on RSI modification.
HOW I USE
On a longsetup I set a buyorder on the high, if the RSI swings show red the first time. My stoploss I choose on the lowest price from the red swing before.
After every ending bar without tradeentry I move the buyorder step by step on the last high till the price move up and the longtrade start.
The same game I use for sellorder with the green swings, if I want a shortsetup. Best times for this are retracements from a trendchannel i.e.
HOW I PYRAMIDING
From swing to swing with the same color I move my stoploss. If my risk are 100 USD and with the next moving stoploss are only 60 USD in risk, then I have 40 USD for my next pyramiding trade in the same trendsetup.
WHEN I MOVE MY STOPLOSS
If I have choose a stoploss, than this is fixed till the last highest/lowest price from the other swing is broken.

Donchian Channel Alerts R1 by JustUncleLThis idea is based on the Donchain Channel centre line Price action. When price moves from the highest/lowest point, the price will move to the center line first. At this point, the center line acts as dynamic support/resistance and often price will bounce back up. However, if price successfully breaks the centre line (primary entry condition), then prices will tend to catch up to the bottom channel line, many times making further moves in that direction (secondary entry condition).
This script alert idea is designed to be used with Renko (10pip brick recommended) Renko or Heikin Ashi (1 hour recommended) charts. It combines the Donchian Channel centre line price action with a directional coloured EMA (default length 8) to provide entry and exit signals.
There are three options to exit trade:
MA Cross (default exit) = exit occur when price breaks EMA in opposite direction.
Centre Cross = exit occurs when price breaks back passed the centre line in opposite direction.
Brick Colour = exit when a brick/bar paints in the opposite colour to trade direction.
Each Entry and Exit signal creates an Alertcondition that can be picked up by the TradingView Alarm system.
TIPS:
This type of Trading technique only works well in a trending market. Do not try to trade this technique in a ranging/flat market, wait for market to return to trend or pick another pair.
To get 10pip Bricks set Renko to "Traditional" type bricks and 0.001 for non-JPY currency pairs and 0.1 for JPY currency pairs. Also set chart Time frame to 5min or 15mins.

CM_Donchian Channels V3 revised by JustUncleLThis is a revised version of Chris Moody's "CM_Donchian Channel Modified_V2" script.
ChrisMoody:
"Modified Donchian Channel with separate adjustments for upper and lower levels. Purpose is if you expect big move up, use lower input for example 3 or 4, and longer upper input, eg. 40 - 100 and use lower input line as a stop out. Opposite if you expect big move down. Mid Line Rule in Long Example: If lower line is below entry take partial profits at Mid Line and move stop to Break even. If Lower line moves above entry price before price retraces to midline use Lower line as Stop...Opposite if Shorting."
V3 Revisions by JustUncleL 23-Aug-2017:
Change alert to use alertcondition
Upgraded to Version3 Pinescript.
Moved all breakout arrows to bottom of screen
Added bar colouring patch.
Changed some defaults.
Price Action Channel Master by JustUncleLThis indicator combines a number of PAC types into one indicator and will replace some of my previously PAC scripts (some were not published).
It draws a Moving Average (MA) channel based on various boundary criteria. Even though the MA choices are not limited to SMA and EMA, these would be the your first choices with most PAC requirements, feel free to experiment though.
Optional Bar colouring around that channel.
Options Available:
(1) Select between 11 different types of moving averages for the base (centre) MA line choices are :
SMA = Simple Moving Average (default)
EMA = Exponential Moving Average.
WMA = Weighted Moving Average
VWMA = Volume Weighted Moving Average
SMMA = Smoothed Simple Moving Average.
DEMA = Double Exponential Moving Average
TEMA = Triple Exponential Moving Average.
HullMA = Hull Moving Average
SSMA = Ehlers Super Smoother Moving average
ZEMA = Near Zero Lag Exponential Moving Average.
TMA = Triangular (smoothed) Simple Moving Average.
(2) Select Channel Boundary Criteria:
HILO = Channel boundaries based on High and Low MAs (default).
ATR = Channel boundaries are Multiplier * ATR distance from base line
PIP = Channel boundaries are Multiplier * PIPs distance from base line
STDEV = Channel boundaries are Multiplier * StdDev(price) distance from base line (this is the same as Bollinger bands if SMA is the base MA)
KC = Channel boundaries are Multiplier * StdDev(True Range) distance from base line (this is the same as Keltner channel if SMA is the base MA)
(3) Option to display coloured Candles around the Ribbon, the colouring uses the Default candle 3-tone colour scheme:
Lime = candle closed above Ribbon.
Red = candle closed below Ribbon.
Gray = Candle Closed inside Ribbon.
The Grab candles 6-tone colour scheme:
Lime = Bull candle closed above Ribbon.
Green = Bear candle closed above Ribbon.
Red = Bull candle closed below Ribbon.
DarkRed = Bear candle closed below Ribbon.
Aqua = Bull candle closed inside Ribbon.
Blue = Bear candle closed inside Ribbon.

Candlestick Trend Indicator v0.5 by JustUncleLRequested Update to this Indicator alert project. In this update I have added the option to be able select which Price Action candles you want included in the display and the generated alarm Alert. Other changes also included in this update:
Also added a Price Action candle for "Last Fractal S/R Break", this also a good continuation indication.
Added option to select a different moving average types for directional MA line.
Modified some default settings, using HullMA instead of Zero Lag EMA and standard MACD settings(12,26,9).
Description:
This is a trend following indicator and alert for Binary Options based on Candlestick patterns and trend line -
NOTE: original system was a forex trading system.
This code combines a number of indicators to create an overall trading strategy.
The indicator recognises and displays some useful candle named defined patterns that are used to support trend continuation:
Bearish + Bullish PinBars
Dark Cloud Cover
Piecing Line
Bullish + Bearish Harami
Bullish + Bearish Engulfing Candle
Bullish + Bearish Last Fractal S/R break
Also recognises main Price Action candles from ChrisMoody (CM), the four(4) price action patterns are colored coded bars:
Yellow = Inside Bar - breakout/continuance
Orange = Outside Bar - breakout/continuance
Aqua/Fuschia = Up/Down Shaved Bars - Buying/Selling pressure
Red/Green = Possible reversal PinBars - Reverse Down / reverse Up
The highlighted candles (maroon and darker green) represent the defined PA patterns that have been confirmed following the current trend direction that is indicated by the Hull MA(20) line (can select a different type of MA, or even disable) and confirmed by MACD direction (can be disabled). The confirmed Alerts are indication by green (buy) and red (sell) dots at the bottom of the chart. An alert is generated from this selection for the alert condition of the alarming system.
The fractal upper/lower break lines are also draw, if the (optional) last fractal break line is broken by a highlighted bar then this indicates a stronger trend conformation.
The MACD indicator MACD DEUTER 2 colour(12,26,9) you can visually see the MACD histogram colours with MACD direction - needs "MACD DEUTER 2 colour" indicator.
This multi-indicator set up is suitable for 1hr, 4hr and daily charts with 1-4 candle expiry.

Heiken Ashi zero lag EMA v1.1 by JustUncleLI originally wrote this script earlier this year for my own use. This released version is an updated version of my original idea based on more recent script ideas. As always with my Alert scripts please do not trade the CALL/PUT indicators blindly, always analyse each position carefully. Always test indicator in DEMO mode first to see if it profitable for your trading style.
DESCRIPTION:
This Alert indicator utilizes the Heiken Ashi with non lag EMA was a scalping and intraday trading system
that has been adapted also for trading with binary options high/low. There is also included
filtering on MACD direction and trend direction as indicated by two MA: smoothed MA(11) and EMA(89).
The the Heiken Ashi candles are great as price action trending indicator, they shows smooth strong
and clear price fluctuations.
Financial Markets: any.
Optimsed settings for 1 min, 5 min and 15 min Time Frame;
Expiry time for Binary options High/Low 3-6 candles.
Indicators used in calculations:
- Exponential moving average, period 89
- Smoothed moving average, period 11
- Non lag EMA, period 20
- MACD 2 colour (13,26,9)
Generate Alerts use the following Trading Rules
Heiken Ashi with non lag dot
Trade only in direction of the trend.
UP trend moving average 11 period is above Exponential moving average 89 period,
Doun trend moving average 11 period is below Exponential moving average 89 period,
CALL Arrow appears when:
Trend UP SMA11>EMA89 (optionally disabled),
Non lag MA blue dot and blue background.
Heike ashi green color.
MACD 2 Colour histogram green bars (optional disabled).
PUT Arrow appears when:
Trend UP SMA11<EMA89 (optionally disabled),
Heike ashi red color.
Non lag MA red dot and red background.
MACD 2 colour histogram red bars (optionally disabled).
HINTS:
- Good positions occur when MACD crosses the Zero line.
- Switch between Heikin Ashi and Normal candles as part of your analysis of the price action.
- Large Heikin Ashi candles with small wicks in direction of trend are good strong trends.
Price Action Doji Harami v0.2 by JustUncleLThis is an updated and final version of this indicator. This version distinguishes between the true Harami and the other Doji candlestick patterns as used with the Heikin Ashi candle charts. These candle patterns indicate a potential trend reversal or pullback.
The patterns identified are:
- Bearish Harami (Red Highlight above Bar):
One to three (default 3) large body Bull (green) candles followed by a small (red)
or no body candle (less than 0.5pip) with wicks top and bottom that are at least 60% of candle.
- Bullish Harami (Green Highlight below Bar):
One to three (default 3) large body Bear (red) candles followed by a small (green)
or no body candle (less than 0.5pip) with wicks top and bottom that are at least 60% of candle.
- Bearish Doji (Fuchsia Highlight above Bar):
One to three (default 3) large body Bull (green) candles followed by a small (green)
with wicks top and bottom that are at least 60% of candle.
- Bullish Doji (Aqua Highlight below Bar):
One to three (default 3) large body Bear (red) candles followed by a small (red)
with wicks top and bottom that are at least 60% of candle.
You can optionally specify how large the candles prior to Harami/Doji are in pips, default is 0 pip.
If you set this to zero then it will have no candle size consideration. You can also specify how many look back candles (1-3) are used in Harami/Doji calculations (default 3).
Included option to perform Calculations purely on Heikin Ashi candles, this helps when you want to see the HA Doji/Harami bars with the normal candle stick chart.
Also can optionally set an alert condition for when Harami/Doji found, this also displays a circle on the bottom of the screen when alert is triggered.
Price Action Candles v0.3 by JustUncleLThis requested release includes an Alert condition, so an alarm can be created on selected Price Action bars. Also this version modifies the Doji calculation to be similar to an Harami, so now the description of the Doji's are:
- Bearish Doji (aka Bearish Harami) (Fuchsia Highlight above Bar):
A large body Bull (green) candle followed by a small or no body candle
with wicks top and bottom that are at least 60% of candle.
- Bullish Doji (aka Bullish Harami) (Fuchsia Highlight below Bar):
A large body Bear (red) candle followed by a small or no body candle
with wicks top and bottom that are at least 60% of candle.
The % wick size (default 60%) of the Doji and the size of previous candle (default 15 pips) can be modified in the script Format parameters.
This modified Doji is particularly useful when combined with Heikin Ashi candles.
When Alerts are selected, an alert dot is also displayed along the bottom of the chart.
Price Action Trading System v0.3 by JustUncleLThis is an updated and improved version of my "Price Action Trading strategy". I have added two extra optional filters, one is a trend direction filter based on the MACD slow EMA(17), blue line, and the other is a RSI(7) filter which works similarly to CCI(14) but slightly different dynamics (thank you to gianfranco60 for the suggestion). Also made a couple of corrections:
- input for lenLower minval=1 should be maxval=-1
- one bar pullback did not reset trigger, missing some alerts
Some Notes about usage:
- this is an alert indicator not a signal generator, each alert is a strong trend continuance candidate,
but should be treated on it's own merits by looking at chart dynamics and market conditions.
- will work well on trending markets only.
- works best on the first alert after MACD cross over.
- don't take trades when MACD and signal are close together.
- don't trade when channel and slow MA are flat or close together or
chopper (yellow and blue MA cross over quickly over short period).
YK Fuller BarsThe script highlights "Fuller's pins" and generates alerts when these bars are appearing
POC bands 2.0 and other assorted goodiesI updated my old indicator that plotted a Kalman filter avg. of the bars inside a higher timeframe bar, to attempt to find the most frequent price in that bar's timespan.
It ended up being somewhat close, but not exact, but the result is that you get a pseudo-vwap without a need for volume data, that isn't cumulative and can indicate trend direction, or if the market's ranging.
This is very powerful information!
I highlight a trade setup we get here, derived from observing the indicator's slope and knowing how to read price action, assisted by rgmov and cci readings.
To get the code for the other indicator's you will have to click on share, and then on 'Make it mine' so you get the whole layout.
Good luck and hope you find these of use.
Cheers,
Ivan.
Fakey pattern (Inside Bar False Breakout)Inside Bar + False-Breakout = Fakey pattern
A Fakey pattern can have a pin bar as the false-break bar or not. Fakey’s are a very important and potent price action trading strategy because they can help us identify stop-hunting and provide us with a very good clue as to what price might do next.
