Close Counter HistogramAn interesting experiment to make an indicator act as a counter. I call it CCH - Close Counter Histogram.
It adds 1 when current close is higher than previous close and reduces -1 when current close is lower than previous close.
In the CCH settings you set how many bars to look back and use EMA to smooth the results or disable EMA smoothing.
Disable the EMA smoothing and you'll see the real deal (pure counter).
The higher the GREEN columns the more higher closes and the lower the RED columns the more lower closes.
In case columns are declining above 0 a more darker green will appear.
In case columns are declining below 0 a more darker red will appear.
Supports bar coloring (disabled by default).

Counter-trend
Advancing Declining OscillatorYet another Array indicator, simple, but efficient which i call ADO. The indicator acts as a COUNTER of when CLOSE closes above OPEN and vice versa based on specified look back period in settings.
If we have more Closes above Opens, obviously the indicator will be above ZERO and GREEN, otherwise RED.
Optional to smooth it by EMA (true by default).

[NM] Reversal Candles v01Reversal candles are a very easy way to identify a turn in trend, this indicator has some specific additional conditions for the reversal candle.
BUY Signal reversal candle
Low of current candle exceeds low of previous candle
Low of current candle is lowest for last 7 candles
High of current candle exceeds high of previous candle
Close of current candle is in the upper 50% of the range of this candle
SELL Signal reversal candle
High of current candle exceeds high of previous candle
High of current candle is Highest for last 7 candles
Low of current candle exceeds low of previous candle
Close of current candle is in the lower 50% of the range of this candle
How do I trade it ? (example buy signal)
Wait for close of the candle and the BUY signal
Put a buy stop entry 5 pips above the high of the candle
Put a stop loss 5 pips below the low of the candle
Calculate difference between entry and stop loss and set your target that number of pips above the entry for a 1:1 RR trade*
Wait for your your target or stop loss to be triggered
* Alternatively, you can take 50% of the profit at the 1st (1:1 RR) profit target, move your stop to break even and let the rest of the position run for a higher potential profit.
Further advice on use
Personally I always look for some additional confirmation like a support or resistance level, a bounce of the EMA or a fibonacci level, but please feel free to add additional filters to make the strategy even more effective. I would strongly advise to backtest your strategy first so you can fine tune it and have confidence in trading it. Forward testing on a demo account before going live, although it takes longer, can be a worthy alternative. Works better on higher time frames.
