Buy alert [Crypto_BCT]Hello everyone!
I bring to your attention a simple indicator to determine the point of purchase.
It is based on oscillators and a moving average.
It can be used to work with bots, for example 3COMMAS DCA bot.
Signal Condition Settings:
ATR
The current candle is larger than the ATR for this period
EMA
The signal is necessarily below the EMA of the specified period
MFI low
The MFI index is below this value
CCI low
CCI index is below this value
RSI low
The RSI index is below this value
Lowest bar from
The closing of the current bar is lower than the closing of the bars back in this range
Lowest EMA bar ago
During a given distance back, the EMA value only decreased
I hope it will be useful!

Trendlines with Breaks [LuxAlgo]The trendlines with breaks indicator return pivot point based trendlines with highlighted breakouts. Users can control the steepness of the trendlines as well as their slope calculation method.
Trendline breakouts occur in real-time and are not subject to backpainting. Trendlines can however be subject to repainting unless turned off from the user settings.
The indicator includes integrated alerts for trendline breakouts.
🔶 USAGE
Any valid trendlines methodology can be used with the indicator, users can identify breakouts in order to infer future price movements.
The calculation method of the slope greatly affects the trendline's behaviors. By default, an average true range is used, returning a more constant slope amongst trendlines. Other methods might return trendlines with significantly different slopes.
Stdev makes use of the standard deviation for the slope calculation, while Linreg makes use of the slope of a linear regression.
The above chart shows the indicator using "Stdev" as a slope calculation method. The chart below makes use of the "Linreg" method.
By default trendlines are subject to backpainting, and as such are offset by length bars in the past. Disabling backpainting will not offset the trendlines.
🔶 SETTINGS
Length: Pivot points period
Slope: Slope steepness, values greater than 1 return a steeper slope. Using a slope of 0 would be equivalent to obtaining levels.
Slope Calculation Method: Determines how the slope is calculated.
Backpaint: Determine whether trendlines are backpainted, that is offset to past.
Secondary Chart with OverSized CandlesHi everyone, I'm sharing a simple script I made for a friend. He was looking for a way to add another asset to his chart, and monitor relevant movements \ spot eventual correlation, especially when trading Cryptocurrencies.
We couldn't find a similar script already available so here it is - the code is commented and I hope it's clear enough :)
Notes:
- The parameter scale = scale.left keeps the scales separated and therefore the chart is more organized, otherwise the chart would appear flat if the price difference is too big (e.g. BTC vs XRP)
- It is possible to have the script running in a separate panel (instead of overlay) by moving it to a new pane (when added to the chart) or by removing the parameter overlay = true at the beginning of the code.
- In case you wish to add indicators to this sub-chart (e.g. Bollinger Bands, EMA, etc..) you can do that by adding the relevant code and feed it with the variables OPEN \ HIGH \ LOW \ CLOSE as well as using the same method to retrieve new variables from the target asset with the request.security function.
Hope this comes handy.

ATR Volume DivergenceThe indicator measures ATR relative to VOLUME of each candle, marks the candles where there is more volume than in the previous one, but a lower ATR - signifying a compression in price movement - resistance. It also marks the candle where there is a greater ATR than in the previous candle, but lower volume - signifying an expansion in price movement - vacuum.
P.S. Bring indicator to FRONT to see the colored candles clearly
TR High/Low meterInteresting take for a velocity and trend analysis indicator, I call it The TR high/low meter.
First it will find the highest high and lowest low based on X bars back.
Now comes the twist, instead of storing these lowest or highest prices, we store the TR (true range) into the appropriate array (one array for lowest and one array for highest).
Finally, we sum up these two arrays for highest TR's and lowest TR's and subtract each other to get the difference, Hench, see who is stronger.
In the end we plot the difference into the indicator we have here.
The plot is colored with gradient color in which bright color emphasizes the movement is strong and weaker color emphasizes the movement is getting weaker.
Basically this indicator shows us the asset trend direction and strength. Awesome!

[TTI] ATR channelsHISTORY AND CREDITS
Used by John Carter in his indicator’s toolbox. The ATR channels or the Keltner Channels represent the railroads or the natural movement of stocks.
WHAT IT DOES
Movements between the the The first multiplier lines (white) represent standard movement for the timeframe you are trading. Movements between the second multiplier (green/red lines) represent a 2stdv move of the stock in a single direction. Once a stock starts reaching the 3rd multiplier lines there’s an exponential chance that it will revert to the mean (cyan line)
Additionally, we have added the Institutional lines. These are thought in a Small Account Mastery class 2019 by John Carter, as the levels heavily watched by institutions. The default settings represent what John is teaching but they can be further customised.
HOW TO USE IT
ATRs channels or Keltner Channels can be great source for target or stop losses and can be used as a indicator for confluence with other technical tools like the Fibonacci lines.
Signal Table - AutoFib - SMA - EMA - RSI - ATR - VolWith this indicator you can add a table on top of your chart.
What's in this table?
On which graph you open this table, the indicator data at the selected time of that graph are written. In the image below, you can see the table in the upper right.
You can also see two EMAs above the chart in this indicator. You can adjust their length.
You can add automatic fibonacci retracement levels to the top of the chart. In this way, you can see the Fibonacci levels on the chart and determine the support resistance. If the price is above the Fibonacci level, it will appear green on the chart, and red if below. You will understand as you use it.
It turns red if the RSI is below 30 and green if it is above 70.
Likewise, if the price is above the moving averages you have set, it appears as green, and if it is below it, it appears as red.
You can hide and activate the EMA and Fibonacci levels above the chart.
For example, you can get the ETH chart while the BTC chart is open in front of you. I think you will understand everything clearly from the settings tab below. Please support me. I hope you will be satisfied using it.
ATR Table (SMA)ATR table for select time frames.
Using Simple Moving Average (SMA) to get ATR.
MA periods is based on numbers suggested by Saeed Khakestar (Trigger Price Action)
You can change them in code
5m => 12
15m => 16
1H => 24
4H => 42
1D => 30
1W => 52
RSI is calculated the same way
EMA MTF PlusI like trading the 1 minute and 3 minutes time-frames. I'm what is commonly called a "scalper". Long term investments yes, I have some, but for trading, I don't have neither the time,
nor the patience to wait hours or days for my trade to be complete.
This doesn't mean I discount the higher time-frames, no, I actually rely heavily on them. I found that EMAs do a decent job as support/resistance, sometimes to a tick level of precision. And this is important for a 1 minute trader.
As such, I made this script that tracks the higher time-frames EMAs and displays the last value as a line.
I do not need the whole EMA, I'm not interested in crossovers or crossunders, these are anyway late signals for me.
What's with the triangles? These are local tops/bottoms , candles that have a have decent size of the wick. These tops and bottoms are by no means "final", they are merely a rejection at certain levels of price. Due to markets complexities (and human erratic behaviors hehe) these levels could be breached at the very next candle. For a more "final" version (nothing is really final but..) I added Schaff Trend Cycle as filter, so a triangle will pop only when a trend is mature enough ( STC with a value near 0 or near 100).
Colored bars. When the body of the candle is big, it shows strength. Strong bars tend to have follow through, especially when breaking key levels. The script looks at the body of the candle and compares it with ATR (Average True Range), if it's at least 0.8 of ATR it changes the bar color to yellow (bull candles) or fuchsia(bear candles).
Range identifier. This code is copied from Lazy Bear (if there are any issues please let me know), it's very useful in conjunction with colored bars.
I look for breakout candles that go outside of the range as a signal for a trade.
There are many ways in which this script can be useful, like trading mean reversions or momentum trades (breakouts) or simply trend following trades.
I hope you guys find it useful, you can play with default values and change them as you like, these are what I found to be working best for me and my trading universe (mostly crypto).
Special thanks for the original work of:

ATR Bands with QQE [LM]Hello traders,
I would like to present you ATR Bands with QQE. This indicator is different than my other indicators I used QQE oscillator as an entry indicator, and atr bands I have used as an exit indicator.
You can see 2 set of bands with different multiplicator, first is used as first target profit, stop loss and second as a second target
There are two modes that takes, first is static mode that gives you lines with 1st, 2nd target profit and in red color stop loss.
Second mode has static first target and trailing stop loss
Settings:
Genreal settings - basic setting of source for atr bands, line settings,
First atr bands setting
Second atr bands setting
QQE settings
Cheers,
Lukas
Trailing Stop AlertsThis script is designed as an ATR-based trailing stop tool to assist in managing open positions.
Once you're involved in a profitable trade, if you add this script to your chart you'll be prompted to select a bar to begin trailing from.
You can then adjust the candle lookback distance for swing high/lows (7 by default), the ATR multiplier (1.0 by default), and the direction to trail (Long/Short).
You can also adjust the ATR period in the settings menu if you want to (14 period by default).
Once the script is added to your chart, it will begin drawing your trailing stop and you can then set up alerts.
Alert Options:
Any alert() function call : Will trigger an alert for both conditions (trailing stop updated, trailing stop hit)
Alert Conditions : Trailing Stop Update will trigger whenever the stop is updated, Trailing Stop Hit will trigger whenever the stop is hit.
Note: the alerts will only fire once per bar close and the trailing stop will not update on realtime bars.
ATR Bands with vortex indicator [LM]Hello traders,
I would like to present you ATR Bands with vortex indicator. This indicator is different than my others I used not that known vortex indicator as a entry indicator, and atr bands I have used as a exit indicator.
You can see 2 set of bands with different multiplicator, first is used as first target profit, stop loss and second as a second target
There are to modes that takes, first is static mode that gives you lines with 1st, 2nd target profit and in red color stop loss
In the static mode you can also turn off extending line he price reach the level:
Second mode is tracking atr first band with candle offset of your choosing:
The trailing functionality is not working 100% but I as thinking to share it anyway and see maybe some feedback and meantime I will fix the trailing behavior.
Settings:
Genreal settings - basic setting of source for atr bands, line settings,
First atr bands setting
Second atr bands setting
Vortex setting
Cheers and Happy Xmas,
Lukas

Impulse levelsThe indicator detects impulses based on an increase in ATR and volume, and also plots levels based on these impulses.
RECON ATR Volatility PercentageThe original Average True Range (ATR) indicator is a technical analysis indicator designed to measure volatility. The higher the ATR the higher the volatility.
The RECON ATR Volatility Percentage indicator calculates the Average True Range (ATR) as a percentage.
Suggested chart timeframes: 1h, 4h and 1D seem to produce the most useful intel but can be used on lower timeframes as well.
The Recon ATR Volatility Percentage can be utilized for identifying trading pairs with a desired amount of volatility, for example deploying a grid trading strategy on pairs that are trending up with a high amount of volatility (say over 50%) might produce desirable results.
It is important to note the ATR does not indicate price direction and can be high in both a rising or falling market.
The ATR Length, Period Look Back Length parameters as well as the color of the columns can be configured per your specifications.
Jeges JigsThis is a combination of all my old indicators, with an added feature for trend lines (inspiration for this came from Wedge Maker script thanks to veryfid, I hope he doesn't mind).
This script looks for a period with increased volatility , as measured by ATR ( Average True Range ), then it looks for a high or a low in that area.
When price is above EMA (400 is default, can be changed), it looks for the highs and adds multiples of ATR to the high. Default values for multipliers are 3,9 and 27, meaning that the script will show 3xATR level above the high, 9xATR above the high and 27xATR above the high.
When price is below EMA it looks for the lows and subtracts multiples of ATR from the low.The script will show 3xATR level below the low, 9xATR below the low and 27xATR below the low.
Multipliers values can be changed as well, making it a versatile tool that shows potential levels of suppport/resistance based on the volatility .
Possible use cases:
Breakout trading, when price crosses a certain level, it may show potential profit targets for trades opened at a breakout.
Stoploss helper. Many traders use ATR for their stoplosses, 1 ATR below the swing low for long trades and 1 ATR above the swing high for short trades are common values used by many traders. In this case, the Lookback value comes handy, if we want to look maybe at a more recent value for swing high/low point.
It highlights ATR peaks, it also displays Bollinger bands of SMA400 (or Ema), breakouts for upper/lower bands.
Another thing you get is Parabolic SAR and Zigzag based on SAR.
SuperTrend+ CleanedSimilar to SuperTrend+ which allows for confirmation bars.
Differences:
Limited to SMA calculation of average true range.
Can filter outlier volatility.
Can apply a standard deviation to the ATR value.
ATR-Adjusted RSIThis indicator adjusts the RSI values using the Average True Range. It is used the same way as a normal RSI.
MACD PlusMoving Average Convergence Divergence – MACD
The MACD is an extremely popular indicator used in technical analysis. It can be used to identify aspects of a security's overall trend. Most notably these aspects are momentum, as well as trend direction and duration. What makes the MACD so informative is that it is actually the combination of two different types of indicators. First, the MACD employs two Moving Averages of varying lengths (which are lagging indicators) to identify trend direction and duration. Then, it takes the difference in values between those two Moving Averages (MACD Line) and an EMA of those Moving Averages (Signal Line) and plots that difference between the two lines as a histogram which oscillates above and below a center Zero Line. The histogram is used as a good indication of a security's momentum.
Added Color Plots to Settings Pane.
Switched MTF Logic to turn ON/OFF automatically w/ TradingView's Built in Feature.
Added Ability to Turn ON/OFF Show MacD & Signal Line.
Added Ability to Turn ON/OFF Show Histogram.
Added Ability to Change MACD Line Colors Based on Trend.
Added Ability to Highlight Price Bars Based on Trend.
Added Alerts to Settings Pane.
Customized Alerts to Show Symbol, TimeFrame, Closing Price, MACD Crosses Up & MACD Crosses Down Signals in Alert.
Alerts are Pre-Set to only Alert on Bar Close.
Added ability to show Dots when MACD Crosses.
Added Ability to Change Plot Widths in Settings Pane.
Added in Alert Feature where Cross Up if above 0 or cross down if below 0 (OFF By Default).
Squeeze Pro
Traditionally, John Carter's version uses 20 period SMAs as the basis lines on both the BB and the KC.
In this version, I've given the freedom to change this and try out different types of moving averages.
The original squeeze indicator had only one Squeeze setting, though this new one has three.
The gray dot Squeeze, call it a "low squeeze" or an "early squeeze" - this is the easiest Squeeze to form based on its settings.
The orange dot Squeeze is the original from the first Squeeze indicator.
And finally, the yellow dot squeeze, call it a "high squeeze" or "power squeeze" - is the most difficult to form and suggests price is under extreme levels of compression.
Colored Directional Movement Index (CDMI) , a custom interpretation of J. Welles Wilder’s Directional Movement Index (DMI), where :
DMI is a collection of three separate indicators ( ADX , +DI , -DI ) combined into one and measures the trend’s strength as well as its direction
CDMI is a custom interpretation of DMI which presents ( ADX , +DI , -DI ) with a color scale - representing the trend’s strength, color density - representing momentum/slope of the trend’s strength, and triangle up/down shapes - representing the trend’s direction. CDMI provides all the information in a single line with colored triangle shapes plotted on the bottom. DMI can provide quality information and even trading signals but it is not an easy indicator to master, whereus CDMI simplifies its usage. The CDMI adds additional insight of verifying/confirming the trend as well as its strength
Label :
Displaying the trend strength and direction
Displaying adx and di+/di- values
Displaying adx's momentum (growing or falling)
Where tooltip label describes "howto read colored dmi line"
Ability to display historical values of DMI readings displayed in the label.
Added "Expert Trend Locator - XTL"
The XTL was developed by Tom Joseph (in his book Applying Technical Analysis ) to identify major trends, similar to Elliott Wave 3 type swings.
Blue bars are bullish and indicate a potential upwards impulse.
Red bars are bearish and indicate a potential downwards impulse.
White bars indicate no trend is detected at the moment.
Added "Williams Vix Fix" signal. The Vix is one of the most reliable indicators in history for finding market bottoms. The Williams Vix Fix is simply a code from Larry Williams creating almost identical results for creating the same ability the Vix has to all assets.
The VIX has always been much better at signaling bottoms than tops. Simple reason is when market falls retail traders panic and increase volatility , and professionals come in and capitalize on the situation. At market tops there is no one panicking... just liquidity drying up.

Elder Impulse System + ATR BandsDisregard the above chart, I am not sure why it isn't showing the one I want, which is linked below:
This is as far as I can tell the closest representation to Dr. Alexander Elder's updated "Elder Impulse System" that has added ATR-volatility bands up to 3x deviations from price. I got the idea from watching this recent video (www.youtube.com) of Dr. Elder reviewing some recent trades and noticed he had updated his system from his original books. The Impulse System colour coding was inspired by AstralLoverFlow and LazyBear. ATR Bands are pre-programmed Keltner Channels with some modifications such as filing in the ATR Zones with user-selected colour bands and modifying the ATR value to better suit the volatility of the market being traded.
The script has several components, which I will detail below:
Exponential Moving Averages:
1) A 13-period EMA that is used as a staple in all of Dr. Elder's technical analysis. He uses this EMA as the basis for all of his indicators and why it is included here.
2) A 26-period EMA which can be used as a base-line of sorts to filter when to go long or when to go short. For instance, price over the 26-EMA, price is strong and the rally upwards is likely to continue, underneath it, price is weak and likely to continue downwards for a time.
Volatility Bands:
By definition these are nothing more than 3 separate Keltner Channels of a 13-period EMA each set to one additional multiplier from the moving average. This gives us a 1x, 2x, and 3x multiplier of average volatility from the 13-period EMA based on a 14-period Average True Range (ATR) reading. The ATR was chosen as it accommodates price gaps and also is the standard formula calculation in TradingView. The values of the bands cannot be adjusted but the colour coding of them can be.
Elder Impulse System:
These colour-coded bars show you the strength and direction of the current chart resolution, calculated by the slope of a 13-period EMA and the slope of a MACD histogram. These are used not as a buying or selling recommendation alone but as trend filters, as per Dr. Elder's own description of them.
Green Bars = The 13-period EMA is sloping positively and the MACD histogram is rising compared to previous bars. The trader should only consider buying/long opportunities when a green bar is most recent.
Red Bars = The 13-period EMA is sloping negatively and the MACD histogram is falling compared to previous bars. The trader should only consider selling/short opportunities when a red bar is most recent.
Blue Bars = The 13-period EMA and the MACD histogram are not aligned. One of the indicators is sloping opposite to the other indicator. These are known as indecision bars and are typically seen near the end of a previously established trend. The trader can choose to wait for either a green or red bar to shape their trading bias if they are more risk-averse while a counter-trend trader may decide to try opening a position against the currently-established trend.
How To Trade the System:
This system is unique in that it is so versatile and will fit the styles of many traders, be it trend following traders (generally the original Elder Impulse System design) or mean-reversion/counter-trend trading (the original Keltner Channel design). None of the examples below or in the chart above are financial advice and are just there for demonstration purposes only.
1) The most basic signal given would be the moving average cross up or down. A cross of the 13-EMA over the 26-EMA signals upward trend strength and the trader could look for buying opportunities. Conversely, the 13-EMA under the 26-EMA shows downward trend strength and the trader could look for selling opportunities.
2) Following the Elder Impulse system in conjunction with the EMAs. Look for long opportunities when a green bar is printed and price is over both of the 13- and 26-period EMAs. Look for short opportunities when a red bar is printed and price is below both of the 13- and 26-period EMAs. Keep in mind this does not necessarily need a moving average cross to be viable, a green or red bar over both EMAs is a valid signal in this system, usually. Examine price more closely for better entry signals when a blue bar is printed and price is either above or below both EMAs if you are a trend trader. This is how Dr. Elder originally intended the system to be used in conjunction with his famous Triple Screen Trading System. I am not going into detail here as it is a deep subject but I would suggest an interested trader to examine this Triple Screen System further as it is widely accepted as a strong strategy.
3) Mean Reversion and Counter-Trend Trading. Dr. Elder mentions that the zone between the two EMAs is called the Value Zone. A mean reversion trader could look for buying opportunities if price has generally been in an uptrend and falls back to value, conversely, they could look for shorting opportunities if price has generally been in a downtrend and rises back to value. These are your very basic pull backs found in trends that create your higher lows in an uptrend or your lower highs in a downtrend. A mean reversion/scalper trader may also look to use the upper and lower most ATR bands as an indication of price being overbought or oversold and could look to enter a counter-trend trade here once a blue indecision bar is printed and to ride that move back down to the Value Zone.
Taking Profits and Risk Management
This system again is very versatile and will fit a wide range of trading styles. It has built in take profit levels and risk management depending on your style of trading.
1a) In original Triple Screen Trading (and the original Elder Impulse system), a trader was to place a buy order one tick above a newly printed green bar with a stop loss one tick below the most recent 2-day low, and vice-versa for red bars on short selling. as long as other criteria were met, that I will not go into. It is all over YouTube and in his books and on Investopedia if you want more information. The general idea is to continue the trend in the direction if price is strong and you are bought into that move with a close stop, or if price falls back a little bit, you can get in at a better price. This would be a system typically better suited to a scalper.
1b) The updated risk management according to the above video is to place a stop loss at least 2ATR away from price. These bands already have calculated these values so a trader can place a stop one tick below the 2 or even 3ATR zones depending on their risk appetite. This is assuming you have already received a strong buy signal based on the system you follow. This would be a system typically better suited to a trend-trader.
2a) Taking profits if you are a trend trader has several possibilities. The first, as Dr. Elder suggests, is to place a price target 2ATR values away from your entry giving you approximately a 1:1 risk-reward ratio.
2b) The second possibility if the trade is successful is to ride the trend upwards until a blue bar is printed, suggesting indecision in the market. A modified version of this that could let a winning trade run longer is to wait for the price to close under the 13-EMA in fast markets, or close under the 26-EMA in slightly slower markets to maximize potential winnings.
2c) A scalper trader may wish to have a target at either the value zone if they are playing an extended buy/short back to the mean, or if they are being at the mean, to sell or cover when price extends back out to the 2x or 3x zone.
3) Trend traders can additionally use the ATR zones as a sort of safety guidelines for entering a trade. Anything within the 1ATR zone is typically a safer entry as the market is less volatile at this time. Entering when price has gone into the 2ATR zone is signaled as a strong momentum move and can signal a stronger move in the direction of the current closing bar. While not always the case, it is suggested by Dr. Elder to not enter trend trades at the 3ATR zone as this is where you will be likely looking for a counter-trend retracement back to value and a trader entering here in the direction of the trade has a higher chance of being stopped out or not getting in at the best possible price.
Risk Management Tool [LuxAlgo]Good money management is one of the fundamental pillars of successful trading. With this indicator, we propose a simple way to manage trading positions. This tool shows Profit & Loss (P&L), suggests position size given a certain risk, sets stop losses and take profit levels using fixed price value/percentage/ATR/Range, and can also determine entries from crosses with technical indicators which is particularly handy if you don't want to set an entry manually.
1. Settings
Position Type: Determines if the position should be a "Long" or "Short".
Account Size: Determines the total capital of the trading account.
Risk: The maximum risk amount for a trade. Can be set as a percentage of the account size or as a fixed amount.
Entry Price: Determines the entry price of the position.
Entry From Cross: When enabled, allows to set the entry price where a cross with an external source was produced.
1.1 Stop Loss/Take Profit
Take Profit: Determines the take profit level, which can be determined by a value or percentage.
Stop Loss: Determines the stop loss level, which can be determined by a value or percentage.
2. Usage
One of the main usages of position management tools is to determine the position size to allocate given a specific risk amount and stop-loss. 2% of your capital is often recommended as a risk amount.
Our tool allows setting stop losses and take profits with different methods.
The ATR method sets the stop loss/take profit one ATR away from the entry price, with the ATR period being determined in the drop-down menu next to the selected methods. The range method works similarly but instead of using the ATR, we use a rolling range with a period determined in the drop-down menu next to the selected methods as well.
Unlike the available position management tool on TradingView, the entry can be determined from a cross between the price an an external source. The image above shows entries from the Volatility Stop indicator. This is particularly useful if you set positions based on trailing stops.
