Pivot Points AlgoThis is a Pivot Points Algo (PPA).
PPA uses an adaptive pivot algorithm that adapts to different market situations based on various factors.
PPA also includes depth filtering to make it more precise at its signal decision.
======= Signal Types ======
Main Signal of BUY and SELL shown by buy/sell labels.
Mini Signals of BUY and SELL shown by buy/sell arrows and shows additional breakouts after the Main Signal occurred.
Optional reversal signals show a possible reversal in trend (small triangle).
======= Alerts =======
Main Signals alerts - Alerts when a main Buy or Sell is triggered (Shown as Labels).
Combo Alerts - Alerts when main or mini signals of Buy and Sell are triggered (Shown as Arrows).
======= Assets and Time frames =======
Can be used on various assets, stocks, forex, crypto and works great for day trading as well as swing trading and long term investing.
PPA is designed to adjust to any time frame!
======= General info =======
The purpose of this indicator is to signal possible breakouts with a high rate of success.
PPA has been extensively tested and fine tuned to provide traders and investors with a valuable tool for timing long and short entries. However, no system is 100% perfect, and it is good practice to have a plan in place and use stop losses or other tools to mitigate unforeseen risk.
Also, note, I don't hide what PPA is doing as opposed to some other commercial indicators on the market. You can view pivot lines and pivot bands and so on.
The magic is the inner system itself which works for you to pinpoint the best entrance possible, I recommend confirming your own methods to make sure you want to take the trade.

Robust Channel [tbiktag]Introducing the Robust Channel indicator.
This indicator is based on a remarkable property of robust statistics , namely, the resistance to the presence of data points that deviate significantly from the established trend (generally speaking, outliers ). Being outlier-resistant, the Robust Channel indicator “remembers” a pre-existing trend and thus exhibits a very peculiar "lag" in case of a sharp price change. This allows high-confidence identification of such price actions as a trend reversal, range break, pullback, etc.
In the case of trending and range-bound market conditions, the price remains within the channel most of the time, fluctuating around the central line.
Technical details
The central line is calculated using the repeated median slope algorithm. For each data point in a lookback window of a user-specified Length , this method calculates the median slope of the lines that connect that point to all other points inside the window. The overall median of these median slopes is then calculated and used as an estimate of the trend slope. The algorithm is very efficient as it uses an on-the-fly procedure to update the array containing the slopes (new data pushed - old data removed).
The outer line is then calculated as the central line plus the Length -period standard deviation of the price data multiplied by a user-defined Channel Width Factor . The inner line is defined analogously below the central line.
Usage
As a stand-alone indicator, the Robust Channel can be applied similarly to the Bollinger Bands and the Keltner Channel:
A close above the outer line can be interpreted as a bullish signal and a close below the inner line as a bearish signal.
Likewise, a return to the channel from below after a break may serve as a bullish signal, while a return from above may indicate bearish sentiment.
Robust Channel can be also used to confirm chart patterns such as double tops and double bottoms.

Box Range AlertSimple Script for getting alerts on the crossing of Upper & Lower levels either way.
Good for Free users as they can only use 1 alert at a time. So this indicator will be useful to get alerts on both Breakout Or Breakdowns.
Just add input Price manually and set alerts.
52 Bar High/Low starting from previous barUsually all 52 bar scripts depend on weekly bars. This script makes it possible to apply the current time period. In addition, it starts from the previous bar so that the current day's bar is not included in the calculation which makes it easier to notice if the price is above the previous 52 bars.

Stdev Breakout StrategyStdev Breakout Strategy
Description:
This script generates a long entry signal when the Standard Deviation crosses over the Simple Moving Average and the Close is greater than the Open, and/or generates a short entry signal when the Standard Deviation crosses under the Simple Moving Average and the Close is less than the Open.
Repeated Median Regression ChannelThis script uses the Repeated Median (RM) estimator to construct a linear regression channel and thus offers an alternative to the available codes based on ordinary least squares.
The RM estimator is a robust linear regression algorithm. It was proposed by Siegel in 1982 (1) and has since found many applications in science and engineering for linear trend estimation and data filtering.
The key difference between RM and ordinary least squares methods is that the slope of the RM line is significantly less affected by data points that deviate strongly from the established trend. In statistics, these points are usually called outliers, while in the context of price data, they are associated with gaps, reversals, breaks from the trading range. Thus, robustness to outlier means that the nascent deviation from a predetermined trend will be more clearly seen in the RM regression compared to the least-squares estimate. For the same reason, the RM model is expected to better depict gaps and trend changes (2).
Input Description
Length : Determines the length of the regression line.
Channel Multiplier : Determines the channel width in units of root-mean-square deviation.
Show Channel : If switched off , only the (central) regression line is displayed.
Show Historical Broken Channel : If switched on , the channels that were broken in the past are displayed. Note that a certain historical broken channel is shown only when at least Length / 2 bars have passed since the last historical broken channel.
Print Slope : Displays the value of the current RM slope on the graph.
Method
Calculation of the RM regression line is done as follows (1,3):
For each sample point ( t (i), y (i)) with i = 1.. Length , the algorithm calculates the median of all the slopes of the lines connecting this point to the other Length -1 points.
The regression slope is defined as the median of the set of these median slopes.
The regression intercept is defined as the median of the set { y (i) – m * t (i)}.
Computational Time
The present implementation utilizes a brute-force algorithm for computing the RM-slope that takes O ( Length ^2) time. Therefore, the calculation of the historical broken channels might take a relatively long time (depending on the Length parameter). However, when the Show Historical Broken Channel option is off, only the real-time RM channel is calculated, and this is done quite fast.

Double DojiStrategy Kiss = 'Keep It Simple, Stupid' or 'Keep It Simple, Smart'
The script simply identifies 2 consecutive Doji candles, and calculates Target on both the sides for given Reward : Risk factor.
The High-Low to Open-Close ratio is set to default value 20. The Reward : Risk ratio is of default value 2.
Both can be set to values of your choice.
Accuracy best on Daily chart. Can be tried on any timeframe though.
Trading Rules: Buy at higher / Short at lower of the 2 candles, with other as Stop Loss.
If a Stop Loss is hit, go for reverse trade. If again a SL is hit, switch to other instrument.
Important: If trading in Futures and target is achieved, hedge the position by buying an option (subject to liquidity).
Reason is, the trend may condition to any extent and you would definitely not want to miss out the whole action.
Check the shared example. For a risk to 175 points, reward is 2200+ points (more than 12.5 times).
Moving Regression Band Breakout strategyFollowing the introduction of the Moving Regression Prediction Bands indicator (see link below), I'd like to propose how to utilize it in a simple band breakout strategy :
Go long after the candle closes above the upper band . The lower band (alternatively, the lower band minus the 14-period ATR or the central line ) will serve as a support line .
Exit as soon as the candle closes below the support line .
To manage the risk of false breakouts, a fixed stop loss is set to the value of the support line at the time of opening a position. When the support line moves above the position opening price, shift the stop loss to breakeven.
The same logic but in reverse applies to short positions.
As an option, it is possible to allow long entries only when the slope of the Moving Regression curve is positive (and short entries when the slope is negative).
Model parameters:
Length and Polynomial Order define the lag and smoothness of the model.
Multiplier specifies the width of the channel.
As the default model parameter values, I set those that I found to provide optimal risk / reward ratio on the daily timeframe (for both trending and range-bound market). However, the settings are very flexible and can be well-adjusted to particular market conditions. Feel free to play around and leave feedback in the comments!

Multi Time Frame Candles with Volume Info / 3DHello Traders,
This is my second Multi Time Frame Candles script but with this new one, you will have some new features such volume info, remaining time to close of higher time frame candle and also developed using new features of Pine such array of lines. also I tried to make it 3D for better visualization ;) also it shows new highs/lows / breakouts.
I tried to make many things optional, so you can change almost everything using options.
What you can change using options:
- Higher time frame
- Number of Candles
- Candle Colors Up/Down
- Wick Color
- Volume colors Up/Down
- Text color of Remaining Time
- Shadow Color
- Background color
- Start bar of the candles (so you can see many higher times frame candles in same window)
- 3D effect, by default it's enables but you can disable 3D view
Lets see some examples:
Remaining time:
Breakouts:
You can combine different higher time frames:
if you don't want 3D view then combining different higher time frames:
You can change background color:
Enjoy!
[astropark] Progressive VWAPDearDear Followers,
today another awesome Analysis Tool, that you can use in your trading journey: Progressive VWAP !
If you love vwap, you will love this indicator, as it calculates some special "progressive" / "evolving" vwap levels:
daily vwap named dvwap
2D vwap named 2dvwap
3D vwap named 3dvwap
weekly vwap named wvwap
2W vwap named 2wvwap
Monthly vwap named mvwap
Quarterly vwap named qvwap
Yearly vwap named yvwap
You can:
choose which progressive vwap to show and which to hide
change each line color / thickness / display style (solid or dashed)
choose to show or hide labels and change their size
Why such indicator should be helpful? How can I use it to do profit?
In multiple ways:
when a lower timeframe crosses an higher timeframe progressive vwap, you know sentiment is getting bullish and viceversa if the cross is downwards
price tends to bounce on such progressive vwaps: the higher the timeframe, the more probably the bounce is as well as the magnitude of the breakout of the level
This indicator works on every timeframe, market and pair.
As I always say, all tools are great if you use them correctly: this is not the "Holy Grail", so always use proper money and risk management strategies.
This is a premium indicator , so send me a private message in order to get access to this script.

Ravih Pro Trend BreakoutThis is a Trend Breakout Strategy on “DAILY Time-frame”
This Strategy is designed keeping in mind with Medium to Long Term traders. The strategy works only on Daily Time-frame and on Closing Price.
The concept here is to identify assets with potential change in trend. Primary focus is to position for the big move. There are times... trying to catch every trend, many of which can be unprofitable especially in side-way market. However, the primary purpose of this strategy is to catch all the major trend movements, which are much more profitable than minor market losses in all the side-way market.
I’ve simplified it to make it user-friendly.
How to use?
Set it to Daily Time-frame.
Buy, Take Profit 1,2,3 and Exit signals are included on chart based on the current Trend direction. The system shows an Exit signal if the system’s exit conditions are met. It works only on Daily Time-frame and on Closing Price.
Dark Blue Up Triangle denotes Buy at the Closing Price. Entry Price is Closing Price or with + or – 2% tolerance of the Closing Price for the following market day.
Purple Down Triangle denotes Exit to close any remaining position to free up capital.
Little Green Up Triangles denote the Bulls are in Control and Overpowering the Bears and represents minor Buying opportunities with strong probability of continuing up-moves.
Setting Up Alerts
The user has the option to Setup Alerts for all chart signals that is…
For Buy, for Exit, for Take Profit 1 set at 24%, for Take Profit 2 set at 48% and for Take Profit 3 set at 72%
The user also has the option to adjust the Take Profit as per their desire. However, the predetermined Take Profit set for this strategy does work reasonably well.
Remember...
This strategy is only built for stocks. It is Not for Indices neither for any other financial instruments.
No SHORT signals in this strategy.
LAGging span leaves Bollinger Bands strategyAbstract
This script points out the positions a lagging span leaves a Bollinger Band.
This script does not plot a lagging span but moves the Bollinger Band forward.
You can find profit opportunities by combining this script and risk management.
Introduction
Bollinger Bands is a popular indicator.
It contains a moving average, an upper band and a lower band.
The moving average can indicate trend, the upper band and the lower band can indicate if the price is far away from the moving average.
However, in trading markets, anything can happen.
Both continuation and reversal are possible when the price touches the moving average, the upper band or the lower band.
Therefore, many traders adjust the parameters of the Bollinder Band or add other indicators to improve their trading strategies.
@Daveatt et. al. provided an idea that uses a lagging span.
A lagging span is a line chart. It displays the reference price but in earlier time.
For example, if the offset of a lagging span is 26 days, the value of the lagging span on 29 days ago is the reference price 3 days ago.
A lagging span is a part of Ichimoku Cloud.
It can compare the price to the earlier price and the values of indicators in the past.
To compare the price to the values of indicators in the past, we can also shift indicators forward instead of adding a lagging span into the chart.
This script uses shift-the-indicators-forward method.
In other words, this script plots the Bollinger Band forward so that the price can be compared to the values of the Bollinger Band in the past.
Computing and Adjusting
(1) Compute Moving Average
(2) Compute Standard Derivation
(3) Upper Band = Moving Average + Standard Derivation * Multi
(4) Lower Band = Moving Average - Standard Derivation * Multi
(5) Shift the Bollinger Band forward according to the offset parameter.
(6) Mark the points the price leaves the shifted Bollinger Band
(7) Compute the most possible loss and profit before the next opposite signal.
Parameters
source : the data for computing the bollinger band. can be open, high, low, close or their combination.
length : how many days are calculated by the bollinger band
mult : the distance from the moving average to the upper band and the distance from the moving average to the upper band is equal to ( mult * standard derivation ) .
x_offset : the offset of the lagging span
Conclusion
This script can find signals for potential breakout or trend continuation.
If you want to use this signal well, you need to know when to cut loss and protect the profit.

Price Action - Support & Resistance by DGTSᴜᴘᴘᴏʀᴛ ᴀɴᴅ Rᴇꜱɪꜱᴛᴀɴᴄᴇ , is undoubtedly one of the key concepts of technical analysis
█ Sᴜᴘᴘᴏʀᴛ ᴀɴᴅ Rᴇꜱɪꜱᴛᴀɴᴄᴇ Dᴇꜰɪɴɪᴛɪᴏɴ
Support and Resistance terms are used by traders to refer to price levels on charts that tend to act as barriers, preventing the price of an financial instrument from getting pushed in a certain direction.
A support level is a price level where buyers are more aggressive than sellers. This means that the price is more likely to "bounce" off this level rather than break through it. However, once the price has breached this level it is likely to continue falling until meeting another support level.
A resistance level is the opposite of a support level. It is where the price tends to find resistance as it rises. Again, this means that the price is more likely to "bounce" off this level rather than break through it. However, once the price has breached this level it is likely to continue rising until meeting another resistance level.
A previous support level will sometimes become a resistance level when the price attempts to move back up, and conversely, a resistance level will become a support level as the price temporarily falls back.
█ Iᴅᴇɴᴛɪꜰʏɪɴɢ Sᴜᴘᴘᴏʀᴛ ᴀɴᴅ Rᴇꜱɪꜱᴛᴀɴᴄᴇ
Support and resistance can come in various forms, and the concept is more difficult to master than it first appears. Identification of key support and resistance levels is an essential ingredient to successful technical analysis.
If the price stalls and reverses in the same price area on minimum of two different occasions, then a horizontal line is drawn to show that the market is struggling to move past that area. Those areas are static barriers, one of the most popular forms of support/resistance and are highlighted with horizontal lines.
Repeated test , the more often a support/resistance level is "tested" over an extended period of time (touched and bounced off by price), the more significance is given to that specific level
High volume , the more buying and selling that has occurred at a particular price level, the stronger the support or resistance level is likely to be
Market psychology , plays a major role as traders and investors remember the past and react to changing conditions to anticipate future market movement.
Psychological levels , is a price level that significantly affects the price of an underlying financial instrument. Typically, near round numbers often serve as support and resistance
The following support and resistance related topics are beyond the scope of this study, so they will be mentioned roughly only as a reference for support and resistance concept
Trendlines , Support and resistance levels in trends are dynamic. Throughout an uptrend, levels of support tend to look like a trendline, usually clustering around higher lows. As the price rises, the price where buyers consider the stock to be “too cheap” also changes, which creates new support levels on the way up. The same is also true for resistance levels. In an uptrend, a stock is continuously breaking through perceived resistance levels and making new highs
Moving Averages , is a constantly changing line that smooths out past price data while also allowing the trader to identify support and resistance. In the example Notice how the price of the asset finds support at the moving average when the trend is up, and how it acts as resistance when the trend is down
The Fibonacci Retracement/Extension tool , is a favorite among many short-term traders because it clearly identifies levels of potential support and resistance
Pivot Point Calculations , is another common technical analysis technique, where pivot point is calculated based on the high, low, and closing prices of previous trading session/day and support & resistance levels are projected based on the pivot point, different calculation techniques are available, as presented in this example of an pivot point indicator : PVTvX by DGT
█ Tʀᴀᴅɪɴɢ Bᴀꜱᴇᴅ ᴏɴ Sᴜᴘᴘᴏʀᴛ ᴀɴᴅ Rᴇꜱɪꜱᴛᴀɴᴄᴇ
Once an area or "zone" of support or resistance has been identified, those price levels can serve as potential entry or exit points because, as a price reaches a point of support or resistance, it will do one of two things—bounce back away from the support or resistance level (trading ranges), or violate the price level and continue in its direction (trading breakouts) —until it hits the next support or resistance level
The basic trading method for using support and resistance is to buy near support in uptrends or the parts of ranges or chart patterns where prices are moving up and to sell/sell short near resistance in downtrends or the parts of ranges and chart patterns where prices are moving down. Buying near support or selling near resistance can pay off, but there is no assurance that the support or resistance will hold. Therefore, consider waiting for some confirmation that the market is still respecting that area
Trading breakouts, a breakout is a potential trading opportunity that occurs when an asset's price moves above a resistance level or moves below a support level on increasing volume. The first step in trading breakouts is to identify current price trend patterns along with support and resistance levels in order to plan possible entry and exit points. Once the asset trades beyond the price barrier, volatility tends to increase and prices usually trend in the breakout's direction. Breakouts are such an important trading strategy since these setups are the starting point for future volatility increases, large price swings and, in many circumstances, major price trends. When trading breakouts, it is important to consider the underlying asset's support and resistance levels. The more times an asset price has touched these areas, the more valid these levels are and the more important they become. At the same time, the longer these support and resistance levels have been in play, the better the outcome when the asset price finally breaks out. Asset prices will often move slightly further than we expect them to. This doesn't happen all the time, but when it does it is called a false breakout. Therefore it is important to consider waiting for some confirmation while trading breakouts. It’s also popular for traders to sell 50% of their positions at the resistance level, and hold the rest in anticipation of a breakout above resistance
█ Pʀɪᴄᴇ Aᴄᴛɪᴏɴ - Sᴜᴘᴘᴏʀᴛ & Rᴇꜱɪꜱᴛᴀɴᴄᴇ ʙʏ DGT Sᴛᴜᴅʏ
This experimental study attempts to identify the support and resistance levels. Assumes a simple logic to discover moments where the price is rising or falling consecutively for minimum 3 bars with the condition volume increases on each bar and the last bar’s volume should be bigger than the long term volume moving average. A line will be drawn at the end of the move (highest or lowest, depending on the move direction), the line will be drawn at minimum on the 3rd bar and if condition holds for other consecutive bars the line will switch to 4th, 5th etc bar.
Lines will not be deleted so the historical ones will remain and will emphasis the levels significance when they overlap in feature. Strong levels are more likely to hold and cause the price to move in the other direction, whereas the minor levels may only cause the price to pause and keep moving in the same direction. Determining future levels of support and resistance can drastically improve the returns of a short-term investing strategy
Bar colors will be painted based on the volume of the specific bar to its long term volume moving average. This will help identifying the support and resistance levels significance and emphasis the sings of breakouts
Finally, Volume spikes will be marked on top of the price chart. A high volume usually indicates more interest in the security and the presence of institutional traders. However, a rapidly rising price in an uptrend accompanied by a huge volume may be a sign of exhaustion. Traders usually look for breaks of support and resistance to enter positions. When security break critical levels without volume , you should consider the breakout suspect and prime for a reversal off the highs/lows. Volume spikes are often the result of news-driven events. Volume spike will often lead to sharp reversals since the moves are unsustainable due to the imbalance of supply and demand
A good example with many support and resistance concepts observed on a stock chart and detected by the study
Settings:
Length of volume moving average, where volume moving average is used to detect support and resistance levels, is used as reference to compare with threshold values for volume spikes and colors of the bars

alGROWithm Premium - Strategy TesterThe alGROWithm Strategy Tester is a supplement to the original alGROWithm indicator.
Use this strategy to do your own back testing and find the best settings that work for your asset of choice.
█ WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT
Different assets require different settings for optimal results. This strategy script will allow you back test different settings for alGROWithm in order to analyze key metrics such as win rate and P/L. TradingView functionality also enables you to view a high level performance summary and even see every single individual trade made by the algo.
█ BEST PRACTICES
Depending on the asset you are testing, it is very important to update the settings as needed. For example, if you are back testing on US30, you will likely need to increase the starting capital. For other assets, you may also need to change the order size to use the Contracts option.
It is important to decide for yourself which back testing parameter you will weigh more heavily in terms of importance. For example, a day trader may want to use a setting that maximizes win rate rather than profit % since we are humans and not computers. Further, it is highly recommended to utilize all of the rich features that TradingView provides with regards to back testing. For example, using the List of Trades tab, go back to find a failed trade and analyze the trade to see if you actually would have taken it in the moment.
After finding the best sensitivity for your asset, it is important to set that sensitivity value on the non-strategy version of alGROWithm for usage. Changing settings on this version will not carry over to the non-strategy version.
█ DEFAULT SETTINGS
We have set the following default settings on the strategy:
Starting capital: $100k
Order size: 30% of equity
