Livermore's One Day ReversalThis is an indicator based on Jessie Livermore's "One Day Reversal" from the book "How to Trade in Stocks" by Richard Smitten.
3-Bar-Reversal-Pattern Strategy Backtest This startegy based on 3-day pattern reversal described in "Are Three-Bar
Patterns Reliable For Stocks" article by Thomas Bulkowski, presented in
January, 2000 issue of Stocks&Commodities magazine.
That pattern conforms to the following rules:
- It uses daily prices, not intraday or weekly prices;
- The middle day of the three-day pattern has the lowest low of the three days, with no ties allowed;
- The last day must have a close above the prior day's high, with no ties allowed;
- Each day must have a nonzero trading range.

Bollinger Band and Moving Average v0.1 by JustUncleLThis is another Bollinger Band strategy+indicator in my series of Bollinger based setups. This one is seems to work best with 5min charts and 20 to 30min expiry. The strategy follows variation of a Bollinger band + Moving Averages
reversal strategy, it uses the 2 moving averages mainly to determine market direction.
Triple Bollinger BandsI found myself using multiple bollinger bands a lot so I decided to add them all to one script and add the ability to adjust them by 0.2. It has helped me by not taking up as much space in the upper left corner as well as improving my in's and outs of trend continuation trades. If you manage to find a double top at +2 or greater deviation, and with a bearish divergence on the RSI as shown in this picture, GO SHORT SON! This was a fast and easy 35 - 40 pips and if you used your fibonacci for an exit you had little doubt of the final result and could have even been prepared for an immediate reversal knowing you were then at an oversold -2.8 deviation. I could go on and on........
Outside Reversal SetUpwww.tradingview.com
This is an outside reversal set up from Frank Ochoa's book Secrets of a Pivot Boss. He recommends using this in confirmation with Pivots but I guess you can play with any other indicator of your choice.
PATTERN PSYCHOLOGY " The power behind this pattern lies in the psychology behind the traders involved in this setup. If you have ever participated in a breakout at support or resistance only to have the market reverse sharply against you, then you are familiar with the market dynamics of this setup .
Basically, market participants are testing the waters above resistance or below support to make sure there is no new business to be done at these levels. When no initiative buyers or sellers participate in range extension, responsive participants have all the information theyneed to reverse price back toward a new area of perceived value."
1-2-3 Reversal Strategy This System was created from the Book "How I Tripled My Money In The
Futures Market" by Ulf Jensen, Page 183. This is reverse type of strategies.
The strategy buys at market, if close price is higher than the previous close
during 2 days and the meaning of 9-days Stochastic Slow Oscillator is lower than 50.
The strategy sells at market, if close price is lower than the previous close price
during 2 days and the meaning of 9-days Stochastic Fast Oscillator is higher than 50.

Reversal off EMA-XsEMA-Xs works mostly on Forex due to the small prices and price fluctuations. It does work on Gold, oddly enough, and some others like UKX 100...but mostly on forex. It doesn't work as well on JPY pairs but occasionally does; the JPY pairs give less signals, but when a JPY pair gives a signal, its a high probability setup. Another script EMA-XL works better on the higher priced instruments like S&P, DJI, OIL, BTC etc.
This script will show 3 moving averages: 13, 34, 200 and works on the 5m, 1hr, 4hr, daily charts. Signals "B" or "S" will be on the chart above or below the candles respectively.
When to open:
The script gives buy and sell signals based on a counter-trend move away from the MA's. When the price rises a specific percent above/below the EMA, it'll give a signal. It's best to take a trade when it gives a cluster of consecutive signals near the same price. If using on the 5m, definitely wait for consecutive signals. Also, use this in conjunction with support and resistance areas. Using with fibs for confirmation really makes this a good tool with high probability: IE, when price hits a fib and the script gives a signal, its a high probability setup.
When to close:
1. After a fast move up/down you may use this to counter trade a scalp 10+ pips, but you need to be quick; applies mostly to the 5m chart.
2. If you have the tenacity wait until you see an opposite signal. With this method you may be holding a loosing trade for a while. But what I've noticed is if it trends against you, price usually with come near to the first time it signaled. You may want to stack trades on each cluster of signals. IE first trade is 1000 units, next is 2000 units, etc... then close when prices comes near the first time it signaled. By this time, if you held, you should have profit. This strategy will really test your mental resilience.
3. Wait until it comes back to one of the trendlines; remember this is a counter trend signal so price is moving away from the MA and it always returns to touch one of the MA's...LOL eventually
4. Applying to scalping on the 5m, keep the stops tight because if the instrument trends hard and fast, you'll be upside-down quickly.
If you put a lot of time into using this signal generator, you can really make good profit. But with all tools, you need to master it. There are nuances to the simple logic of this script that can be both fun and frustrating. With all endeavors, if you put the time into it, you will reap the rewards.
Good luck and let me know if you have any questions/comments.

Market Breadth - [JTCAPITAL]Market Breadth - is a comprehensive crypto market strength and sentiment indicator designed to visualize the overall bullish or bearish alignment across 40 major cryptocurrencies. By combining multi-asset Exponential Moving Average (EMA) comparisons and smoothing techniques, it offers a clean, aggregated view of the broader market trend—helping traders quickly assess whether the market is dominated by bullish momentum or bearish pressure.
The indicator works by calculating in the following steps:
Symbol Selection and Data Retrieval
The script monitors 40 leading cryptocurrencies based on Market Cap. Each asset’s daily close price is requested using a 1D timeframe. This ensures that every data point reflects the same temporal resolution, allowing the indicator to evaluate global crypto strength rather than individual token volatility.
EMA Comparison per Asset
For each asset, two Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) are calculated:
A short-term EMA with period emalength (default 10).
A long-term EMA with period emalength2 (default 20).
Each coin receives a score of +1 when the short-term EMA is greater than the long-term EMA (indicating bullish structure), or -1 when it is below (indicating bearish structure). This binary scoring system effectively converts individual price action into a directional sentiment measure.
Market Breadth Aggregation
All 40 individual scores are summed into a single composite value called scores .
If many assets have bullish EMA alignment, the total score becomes strongly positive.
If the majority show bearish alignment, the total score turns negative.
This step transforms scattered price data into one unified market breadth metric—quantifying how many assets participate in the same directional trend.
Smoothing the Breadth Line
To reduce short-term noise and isolate trend direction, the aggregated score is smoothed using an EMA of length = smoothlen (default 15). The resulting smoothed line helps identify sustained shifts in collective sentiment rather than temporary fluctuations.
Visualization and Color Coding
When scores > 0 , the market breadth is bullish and the histogram is colored blue.
When scores < 0 , the breadth turns bearish and the histogram is purple.
The same logic applies to the smoothed line and background color, offering an instant visual cue of market mood transitions.
Buy and Sell Conditions:
The indicator itself does not trigger direct buy/sell signals but rather acts as a market regime filter . Traders can use it as follows:
Buy Filter: When the smoothed value is above zero and rising, the majority of assets confirm an uptrend — this favors long setups or trend continuation entries.
Sell Filter: When the smoothed value is below zero and falling, bearish alignment dominates — ideal for short setups or defensive risk management.
Optional filters could include combining this with RSI or volume-weighted momentum indicators to confirm breadth-based reversals.
Features and Parameters:
emalength – Defines the short-term EMA length used for individual asset trend detection (default 10).
emalength2 – Defines the long-term EMA length (default 20).
smoothlen – Defines the smoothing EMA length for the total market breadth line (default 15).
40 asset inputs – User-editable symbols allow full customization of which cryptos are tracked.
Dynamic color backgrounds – Visual distinction between bullish and bearish phases.
Specifications:
Exponential Moving Average (EMA)
EMA is a type of moving average that places more weight on recent price data, responding faster to market changes compared to SMA. By comparing a short-term and long-term EMA, the indicator captures momentum shifts across each asset individually. The crossover logic (EMA10 > EMA20) signals bullish conditions, while the opposite indicates bearish momentum.
Market Breadth
Market Breadth quantifies how many assets are participating in a directional move. Instead of tracking a single coin’s trend, breadth analysis measures collective sentiment. When most coins’ short-term EMAs are above long-term EMAs, the market shows healthy bullish breadth. Conversely, when most are below, weakness dominates.
Smoothing (EMA on Scores)
After summing the breadth score, the result is smoothed with an additional EMA to mitigate the inherent volatility caused by individual coin reversals. This second-level smoothing transforms raw fluctuations into a readable, trend-consistent curve.
Color Visualization
Visual cues are integral for intuitive interpretation.
Blue Shades: Indicate bullish alignment and collective upward momentum.
Purple Shades: Indicate bearish conditions and potential risk-off phases.
The background tint reinforces visual clarity even when the indicator is overlaid on price charts.
Background Logic
By applying the same color logic to the chart’s background, users can instantly recognize the prevailing market phase.
Use Cases
As a trend confirmation filter for other indicators (e.g., trade only in the direction of positive breadth).
As a divergence tool : when price rises but breadth weakens, it may signal a topping market.
As a macro sentiment monitor : perfect for assessing when the crypto market as a whole transitions from bearish to bullish structure.
Summary
“ Market Breadth - ” transforms the chaotic price movements of 40 cryptocurrencies into a single, powerful visual representation of overall market health. By merging EMA cross analysis with market-wide aggregation and smoothing , it provides traders with a deep understanding of when bullish or bearish forces dominate the ecosystem.
It’s a clean, data-driven approach to identifying shifts in crypto market sentiment — a perfect companion for trend-following, macro analysis, and timing portfolio exposure.
Enjoy!
Swing Pivot Pullback Detector
Identifies pullback movements that occur immediately after a confirmed swing pivot in price.
It focuses on recognizing how deep the retracement travels relative to the most recent price leg, helping traders visualize short-term corrections that often precede trend continuations or reversals.
How It Works
The script uses built-in pivot logic to confirm swing highs and lows, defined by a user-set number of left and right bars.
Once a pivot of the opposite type forms, the indicator measures the retracement that develops from the end of that leg.
When a valid pullback is found, a small label appears on the chart showing the percentage size of that retracement compared to the previous pivot leg.
Optional alerts can notify the user when a pullback exceeds the specified minimum retrace percentage.
Inputs
Pivot left/right bars: define how far back and forward a swing point must extend to be confirmed.
Lookback: limits how many bars are scanned when searching for the pullback extreme.
Min retrace %: sets the smallest correction percentage to trigger an alert.
Show label / Enable alert: toggle visual or alert output.
Usage
This tool is most useful for visual analysis of price rhythm, measuring the strength of retracements within ongoing swings.
It does not generate trade signals on its own but can complement manual or algorithmic methods that rely on pullback structure or market symmetry.
MA SMART Angle
### 📊 WHAT IS MA SMART ANGLE?
**MA SMART Angle** is an advanced momentum and trend detection indicator that analyzes the angles (slopes) of multiple moving averages to generate clear, non-repainting BUY and SELL signals.
**Original Concept Credit:** This indicator builds upon the "MA Angles" concept originally created by **JD** (also known as Duyck). The core angle calculation methodology and Jurik Moving Average (JMA) implementation by **Everget** are preserved from the original open-source work. The angle calculation formula was contributed by **KyJ**. This enhanced version is published with respect to the open-source nature of the original indicator.
Original indicator reference: "ma angles - JD" by Duyck
---
## 🎯 ORIGINALITY & VALUE PROPOSITION
### **What Makes This Different from the Original:**
While the original "MA Angles" by **JD** provided excellent angle visualization, it lacked actionable entry signals. **MA SMART Angle** addresses this by adding:
**1. Clear Entry/Exit Signals**
- Explicit BUY/SELL arrows based on angle crossovers, momentum confirmation, and MA alignment
- No guessing when to enter trades - the indicator tells you exactly when conditions align
**2. Non-Repainting Logic**
- All signals use confirmed historical data (shifted by 2 bars minimum)
- Critical for backtesting reliability and live trading confidence
- Original indicator could repaint signals on current bar
**3. Dual Signal System**
- **Simple Mode:** More frequent signals based on angle crossovers + momentum (for active traders)
- **Strict Mode:** Requires full multi-MA alignment + momentum confirmation (for conservative traders)
- Adaptable to different trading styles and risk tolerances
**4. Smart Signal Filtering**
- **Anti-spam cooldown:** Prevents duplicate signals within configurable bar count
- **No-trade zone detection:** Filters out low-conviction sideways markets automatically
- **Multi-timeframe MA alignment:** Ensures all moving averages agree on direction before signaling
**5. Enhanced Visualization**
- Large, clear BUY/SELL arrows with descriptive labels
- Color-coded backgrounds for market states (trending vs. ranging)
- Momentum histogram showing acceleration/deceleration in real-time
- Live status table displaying trend strength, angle value, momentum, and MA alignment
**6. Professional Alert System**
- Four distinct alert conditions: BUY Signal, SELL Signal, Strong BUY, Strong SELL
- Enables automated trade notifications and strategy integration
**7. Modified MA Periods**
- Original used EMA(27), EMA(83), EMA(278)
- Enhanced version uses faster EMA(3), EMA(8), EMA(13) for more responsive signals
- Better suited for modern volatile markets and shorter timeframes
---
## 📐 HOW IT WORKS - TECHNICAL EXPLANATION
### **Core Methodology:**
The indicator calculates angles (slopes) for five key moving averages:
- **JMA (Jurik Moving Average)** - Smooth, lag-reduced trend line (original implementation by **Everget**)
- **JMA Fast** - Responsive momentum indicator with higher power parameter
- **MA27 (EMA 3)** - Primary fast-moving average for signal generation
- **MA83 (EMA 8)** - Medium-term trend confirmation
- **MA278 (EMA 13)** - Slower trend filter
### **Angle Calculation Formula (by KyJ):**
```
angle = arctan((MA - MA ) / ATR(14)) × (180 / π)
```
**Why ATR normalization?**
- Makes angles comparable across different instruments (forex, stocks, crypto)
- Makes angles comparable across different timeframes
- Accounts for volatility - a 10-point move in different assets has different significance
**Angle Interpretation:**
- **> 15°** = Strong trend (momentum accelerating)
- **0° to 15°** = Weak trend (momentum present but moderate)
- **-2° to +2°** = No-trade zone (sideways/choppy market)
- **< -15°** = Strong downtrend
### **Signal Generation Logic:**
#### **BUY Signal Conditions:**
1. MA27 angle crosses above 0° (upward momentum initiates)
2. All three EMAs (3, 8, 13) pointing upward (trend alignment confirmed)
3. Momentum is positive for 2+ bars (acceleration, not deceleration)
4. Angle exceeds minimum threshold (not in no-trade zone)
5. Cooldown period passed (prevents signal spam)
#### **SELL Signal Conditions:**
1. MA27 angle crosses below 0° (downward momentum initiates)
2. All three EMAs pointing downward (downtrend alignment)
3. Momentum is negative for 2+ bars
4. Angle below negative threshold (not in no-trade zone)
5. Cooldown period passed
#### **Strong BUY+ / SELL+ Signals:**
Additional entry opportunities when JMA Fast crosses JMA Slow while maintaining strong directional angle - indicates momentum acceleration within established trend.

Easy [CHE] Easy — Minimalist Pine Script for detecting EMA direction changes to define fixed price zones for simple support and resistance visualization, ideal for manual trading workflows.
Summary
This indicator's programming is kept minimalist and super simple, with core logic in under 20 lines for easy comprehension and modification. It creates fixed price zones based on divergences between a base exponential moving average and its smoother counterpart, helping traders spot potential consolidation or reversal areas without dynamic adjustments. By locking the zone at the high and low of the signal bar, it avoids over-expansion in volatile conditions, offering a stable reference line colored by price position relative to the zone. This approach differs from expanding channels by prioritizing simplicity and persistence until a new qualifying signal, reducing visual clutter while highlighting directional bias through midpoint coloring.
Motivation: Why this design?
Traders often face noisy signals from moving averages that flip frequently in sideways markets or lag during breakouts, leading to premature entries or missed opportunities. This indicator addresses that by focusing on confirmed direction shifts between the base and smoothed averages, then anchoring a non-expanding zone to capture the initial price range of the shift. The result is a cleaner tool for marking equilibrium levels, assuming price respects these bounds in ranging or mildly trending conditions.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
- Reference baseline: Traditional moving average crossovers or simple channels that update every bar.
- Architecture differences:
- Zones are set only on new divergence signals and remain fixed until reset by a gap from the prior zone.
- No ongoing high-low expansion; relies on persistent variables to hold bounds across bars.
- Midpoint plotting with conditional coloring based on close position, plus a highlight for zone initiations.
- Practical effect: Charts show persistent horizontal references instead of drifting lines, making it easier to gauge if price is rejecting or embracing the zone—useful for avoiding false breaks in low-volatility setups.
How it works (technical)
The indicator first computes a base exponential moving average of closing prices over a user-defined length, then applies a second exponential moving average to smooth that base. It checks if both the base and smoothed values are increasing or decreasing compared to their prior values, indicating aligned direction. A signal triggers when this alignment breaks, marking a potential shift.
On a new signal, if the current bar's high and low fall outside any existing zone (or none exists), the zone bounds update to those extremes and persist via dedicated variables. The midpoint of these bounds becomes the primary plot line, colored green if below the close (bullish lean), red if above (bearish lean), or gray otherwise. A secondary thick line highlights the midpoint briefly when a zone first sets, aiding visual confirmation. No higher timeframe data or external fetches are used, so updates occur on each bar close without lookahead.
Parameter Guide
EMA Length — Sets the period for the base moving average; longer values smooth more, reducing signal frequency but increasing lag. Default: 50. Trade-offs/Tips: Shorter for faster response in intraday charts (risks noise); longer for daily trends (may miss early shifts).
Smoother Length — Defines the period for the secondary smoothing on the base average; higher values dampen minor wiggles for stabler direction checks. Default: 3. Trade-offs/Tips: Keep low (2–5) for sensitivity; increase to 7+ if zones trigger too often in choppy markets, at cost of delayed signals.
Reading & Interpretation
The main circle plot at the zone midpoint serves as a dynamic equilibrium line: green suggests price is above the zone (potential strength), red indicates below (potential weakness), and gray shows containment within bounds (neutral consolidation). A sudden thick foreground line at the midpoint flags a fresh zone start, prompting review of the prior bar's context. Absence of a plot means no active zone, implying reliance on price action alone until the next signal.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
- Trend following: Enter long on green midpoint after a higher low touches the zone lower bound, confirmed by structure like higher highs; filter shorts similarly on red with lower highs.
- Exits/Stops: Use the opposite zone bound as a conservative stop (e.g., below lower for longs); trail aggressively to midpoint on strong moves, tightening near gray neutrality.
- Multi-asset/Multi-TF: Defaults work across forex and stocks on 1H–Daily; for crypto volatility, shorten EMA Length to 20–30. Pair with volume oscillators for confirmation, avoiding isolated use.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
- Repaint/confirmation: Plots update on bar close using historical closes, so confirmed signals hold; live bars may shift until close but without future references.
- security()/HTF: Not used, eliminating related repaint risks.
- Resources: Minimal overhead—no loops, arrays, or bar limits exceeded; suitable for real-time on any timeframe.
- Known limits: Fixed zones may lag in strong trends (price drifts away without reset); signals skip if no gap from prior zone, potentially missing clustered shifts. Assumes standard OHLC data; untested on non-equity assets.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Start with EMA Length at 50 and Smoother Length at 3 for balanced daily charts. If signals fire too frequently (e.g., in ranges), extend EMA Length to 100 for fewer but stabler zones. For sluggish response in trends, drop Smoother Length to 2 and EMA Length to 30, monitoring for added noise. In high-vol setups, widen both to 75/5 to filter extremes, trading speed for reliability.

Round Number Analyzer v3Round Number Analyzer v3 is an indicator designed to analyze how price interacts with round number levels (levels spaced at fixed intervals in points or pips).
The indicator does not generate entry/exit signals, but provides detailed statistics to better understand market dynamics around these key levels.
✨ Key Features
Cross Counting: detects every time the price crosses a round number level (up = Long, down = Short).
Continuations & Reversals: classifies each cross as:
Continuation: the move continues in the same direction as the previous sequence.
Reversal: the move changes direction compared to the previous sequence.
Sequence Classification (L1…L5+): each level is labelled based on its position within the consecutive cross sequence:
L1 = first level of the sequence,
L2 = second consecutive,
…
L5+ = fifth or higher.
Comprehensive Stats Table (top right corner):
Total crosses (Long, Short, Totals).
Total continuations + breakdown by L1…L5+.
Total reversals + breakdown by L1…L5+.
Percentages calculated against the proper denominator, displayed directly inside the cells next to the absolute values.
Date range of analysis (user-defined).
Customizable Step: Works in both points and pips, making the indicator suitable for indices and forex.
⚙️ Main Inputs
Start date / End date → sets the analysis period.
Step mode → Points or Pips.
Step value → distance between round levels.
Pip size → pip size (default = 0.0001, typical for forex).
📈 How to Interpret
A high continuation percentage after L1–L2 suggests the market tends to extend multiple times beyond the first breakout levels.
Higher reversal percentages at advanced levels (L4–L5+) may signal trend exhaustion.
The analysis helps estimate the probability of continuation or reversal depending on how many consecutive levels have already been crossed.
🔎 Practical Applications
Support for breakout or mean-reversion strategies.
Comparative analysis across different markets (e.g. indices vs forex) or different time periods.
📝 Notes
The indicator is timeframe-robust, as it accounts for multiple steps within the same candle, ensuring results do not depend on the selected timeframe (except for TradingView’s historical data limits).
It does not provide automatic trading signals, but serves as a quantitative analysis tool to refine your strategies.

Round Number Analyzer v3 è un indicatore pensato per analizzare come il prezzo interagisce con i livelli di round number (livelli a distanza fissa in punti o pips).
L’indicatore non genera segnali di ingresso/uscita, ma fornisce statistiche dettagliate utili per comprendere la dinamica del mercato attorno a questi livelli.
✨ Funzionalità principali
Conteggio dei Cross: rileva ogni volta che il prezzo attraversa un livello round (verso l’alto = Long, verso il basso = Short).
Continuations & Reversals: classifica ogni attraversamento come:
Continuation: il movimento prosegue nella stessa direzione della sequenza precedente.
Reversal: il movimento inverte la direzione rispetto alla sequenza precedente.
Classificazione per sequenza (L1…L5+): ogni livello è etichettato in base alla sua posizione nella sequenza di cross consecutivi:
L1 = primo livello della sequenza,
L2 = secondo consecutivo,
…
L5+ = quinto o superiore.
Statistiche complete in tabella (in alto a destra):
Cross totali (Long, Short, Totals).
Continuations totali + breakdown per L1…L5+.
Reversals totali + breakdown per L1…L5+.
Percentuali calcolate sul denominatore corretto, mostrate direttamente dentro le celle accanto ai valori assoluti.
Date range di analisi (impostabile dall’utente).
Step personalizzabile: puoi lavorare sia in punti che in pips, così l’indicatore è adatto sia per indici che per forex.
⚙️ Input principali
Start date / End date → imposta l’intervallo temporale di analisi.
Step mode → punti o pips.
Step value → ampiezza tra i livelli round.
Pip size → dimensione del pip (default = 0.0001, tipico per il forex).
📈 Come interpretarlo
Una percentuale di continuation molto alta dopo L1–L2 indica che il mercato tende a proseguire più volte oltre i primi livelli di breakout.
Percentuali di reversal più elevate nei livelli avanzati (L4–L5+) possono suggerire esaurimento della spinta.
L’analisi permette di stimare la probabilità che un movimento in corso continui o si inverta in base a quanti livelli sono già stati attraversati consecutivamente.
🔎 Applicazioni pratiche
Supporto per strategie di breakout o mean reversion.
Analisi comparativa tra mercati (es. indici vs forex) o tra periodi temporali diversi.
📝 Note
L’indicatore è timeframe-robust: il conteggio tiene conto di multipli step dentro la stessa candela, così i risultati non dipendono dal timeframe scelto (salvo i limiti di caricamento storico di TradingView).
Non fornisce segnali operativi automatici, ma è un tool di analisi quantitativa per affinare le proprie strategie.
Mean Reversion Indictor, Based on Standard Deviations Description:
The Reversal Candle Mean Reversion Indicator is designed for traders seeking to identify potential reversal points in the market based on key price action and volatility. This indicator combines price action analysis (sweeping prior highs or lows) with mean reversion theory, highlighting opportunities where the price tests or touches a moving average's standard deviation bands.
By focusing on these moments of price extremes, the indicator helps traders spot bullish and bearish reversal signals when the price retraces from volatile movements. These conditions often signal a return to the mean—an ideal setup for reversal traders who thrive on fading exaggerated price moves.
How It Works:
1. Price Action Reversal Signal:
* Bullish Reversal: The indicator flags a bullish signal when the current candle's low sweeps the prior candle's low, and the candle closes higher than the prior candle's close.
* Bearish Reversal: The indicator flags a bearish signal when the current candle's high sweeps the prior candle's high, and the candle closes lower than the prior candle's close.
2. Mean Reversion Confirmation:
* Mean Reversion Signal is triggered when the price touches or tests the upper or lower bands, calculated using a user-selected moving average (SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, or Hull MA) and standard deviation.
* The indicator combines price action and volatility, providing stronger reversal signals when the price reaches an extreme distance from the moving average.
3. Customization Options:
* Moving Average Type: Choose from SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, or Hull MA.
* Moving Average Length: Adjust the length of the moving average (default: 20).
* Standard Deviation Multiplier: Set the number of standard deviations for the volatility bands (default: 2.0).
* Custom Candle Colors: Choose custom colors for bullish and bearish reversal candles to easily spot signals.
How to Use for Trading Reversals:
1. Identify Extremes:
* Watch for candles where the price tests or touches the standard deviation bands. These are key moments when the price has moved significantly from the moving average, indicating a potential overbought or oversold condition.
2. Look for Reversals:
* When the price tests a band and simultaneously forms a bullish reversal pattern (sweeping the prior low and closing higher), it signals a potential mean reversion to the upside.
* When the price tests a band and forms a bearish reversal pattern (sweeping the prior high and closing lower), it signals a potential mean reversion to the downside.
3. Entry Points:
* Long Trades: Enter a long trade after a bullish signal appears (green candle) near the lower band, indicating a likely price reversal back towards the mean.
* Short Trades: Enter a short trade after a bearish signal appears (red candle) near the upper band, indicating a likely price pullback.
4. Exit Strategy:
* Set a profit target at the moving average (the mean) or a specific price level based on your strategy.
* Consider using a trailing stop to capture additional profit in case of a stronger reversal beyond the mean.
5. Risk Management:
* Place stops just below the low of the bullish reversal candle or just above the high of the bearish reversal candle to manage risk efficiently.
Geometric Trend Angle [AstroHub]This script, "Geometric Trend Angle," is designed to identify trend reversals based on the geometric angle of the price chart. Here's a detailed explanation of its originality, functionality, and usage:
Originality and Usefulness:
The uniqueness of this script lies in its approach to trend reversal detection through the calculation of the geometric trend angle. Unlike traditional methods, this script combines the analysis of the angle of the price movement with specific conditions for identifying potential trend reversals.
How it Works:
Length and Trend Angle: The user sets the "Length" parameter, determining the period for calculating the trend angle. The script then computes the trend angle, representing the change in prices over the specified period.
Trend Reversal: The script identifies potential trend reversals when the trend angle changes from positive to negative, and the current closing price is higher than the previous closing price.
Green Reversal: Additionally, the script looks for instances where the trend angle changes from negative to positive, and the current closing price is lower than the previous closing price, indicating a potential reversal to the downside.
Graphical Representation: The script visually highlights the identified reversal points on the chart with labels ("Trend Reversal" and "Green Reversal") and draws a line from the reversal point for better visualization.
Alerts: Traders are alerted to potential trend reversals and green reversals, allowing for timely responses to changing market dynamics.
How to Use:
Apply the script to your TradingView chart.
Customize the "Length" parameter based on your preference and analysis.
Observe the colored candles and graphical elements to identify potential trend reversals.
Pay attention to alerts for timely notifications of reversal signals.
Conclusion:
The "Geometric Trend Angle" script provides a unique perspective on trend reversals, combining geometric angle analysis with specific conditions for improved accuracy. Traders can use it as part of their overall analysis to make informed decisions in the dynamic market environment.
OBV with MA & Bollinger Bands by Marius1032OBV with MA & Bollinger Bands by Marius1032
This script adds customizable moving averages and Bollinger Bands to the classic OBV (On Balance Volume) indicator. It helps identify volume-driven momentum and trend strength.
Features:
OBV-based trend tracking
Optional smoothing: SMA, EMA, RMA, WMA, VWMA
Optional Bollinger Bands with SMA
Potential Combinations and Trading Strategies:
Breakouts: Look for price breakouts from the Bollinger Bands, and confirm with a rising OBV for an uptrend or falling OBV for a downtrend.
Trend Reversals: When the price touches a Bollinger Band, examine the OBV for divergence. A bullish divergence (price lower low, OBV higher low) near the lower band could signal a reversal.
Volume Confirmation: Use OBV to confirm the strength of the trend indicated by Bollinger Bands. For example, if the BBs indicate an uptrend and OBV is also rising, it reinforces the bullish signal.
1. On-Balance Volume (OBV):
Purpose: OBV is a momentum indicator that uses volume flow to predict price movements.
Calculation: Volume is added on up days and subtracted on down days.
Interpretation: Rising OBV suggests potential upward price movement. Falling OBV suggests potential lower prices.
Divergence: Divergence between OBV and price can signal potential trend reversals.
2. Moving Average (MA):
Purpose: Moving Averages smooth price fluctuations and help identify trends.
Combination with OBV: Pairing OBV with MAs helps confirm trends and identify potential reversals. A crossover of the OBV line and its MA can signal a trend reversal or continuation.
3. Bollinger Bands (BB):
Purpose: BBs measure market volatility and help identify potential breakouts and trend reversals.
Structure: They consist of a moving average (typically 20-period) and two standard deviation bands.
Combination with OBV: Combining BBs with OBV allows for a multifaceted approach to market analysis. For example, a stock hitting the lower BB with a rising OBV could indicate accumulation and a potential upward reversal.
