SFX Signals & Overlays [YinYangAlgorithms]SFX Signals & Overlays aims to help traders Identify Buy & Sell locations, Reversals, Volatility Zones, Support & Resistance and Overbought & Oversold Zones. All of these may work in harmony with each other by helping to identify when to enter and exit a trade; as well as helping to determine the risk / reward the trade may ensue.
SFX Signals & Overlays’s Buy & Sell signals are momentum based, meaning the Initial ‘Buy’ & ‘Sell’ signal may not be exactly where you want to get in/out. What may occur is the initial signal appears, a few more continuation signals appear afterwards (always in a chain); and once the momentum has ended a ‘Reversal’ signal appears. The reversal is there to help signify that the ‘opportune’ time to buy/sell may have passed and the price may now correct in the opposite direction. This Indicator aims to Buy Low and Sell High; and therefore the Buy signal momentum may occur as the price is either about to fall, currently falling or has started to consolidate. When the Buy signal momentum has ended, this means the momentum is at an impasse, but is favoring Buy momentum and a reversal (correction) may occur.
Buying & Selling at reversal signals may be profitable, however it may be less risky to DCA into your long / short positions during the Buy/Sell momentum signals instead. Let's get into the Tutorial so you can better understand how our SFX Signals & Overlays indicator works.
Tutorial:
Our example above showcases how our SFX Signals & Overlays Indicator looks on the default settings ‘Medium’ for each of our Algorithm Settings:
Trend Sensitivity
Signal Sensitivity
Zone Sensitivity
All of our Algorithm Settings feature 3 different speeds:
Fast
Medium
Slow
These speeds may be applied to each Algorithm Setting individually and affect how quickly they adapt to the current market's momentum. This allows you to tailor this Indicator to fit your trading style by adjusting it to meet your needs accordingly. If you are someone who likes to swing trade on the 1-5 minute timeframe, you may find better confluence with all settings on ‘Fast’. Medium term holders and traders may find better results with all settings on ‘Medium’. Likewise, long term investors may find best results with all settings on ‘Slow’. However, this shouldn’t stop you from finding your own best result by adjusting them individually to meet your own unique trading style.
SFX Signals & Overlays helps you identify shifts in momentum by displaying Momentum Signals. Momentum Signals are shown by either a Green or Red Triangle. Momentum Signals can continue for quite some time until the momentum has ended. We rank the first Momentum Signal from 1/5 to 5/5 for their strength and may help determine the chances of the momentum shift occurring. Once the Momentum Signals have ended we display a Reversal Signal. This Reversal Signal helps signify that the Momentum has ended. When the Momentum ends it means that a reversal may have started. This reversal may mean the price will continue in the direction the signal mentioned; or it may mean the price will consolidate. If the price consolidates then the signal is void as when the consolidation ends the price could go in either direction. If you notice consolidation occurring after a Reversal Signal; wait for more confirmations as it is now too risky.
Our Indicator displays different evaluations for each INITIAL Buy and Sell signal. These evaluations rank the current start of the signal from 1-5; 1 being the lowest and least reliable, 5 being the highest and most reliable. These rankings aren’t indefinite and are simply an evaluation at the time of the initial signal. We may potentially provide evaluations at the reversal later on if requested enough. When a Buy or Sell signal occurs this defines where momentum is occurring in this direction. This momentum is indicated by momentum signals shown through red / green triangles. These triangles indicate that this momentum is present. When these momentum signals end is when the Reversal Signal appears indicating that since this momentum has ended, there may be a decent chance of a reversal occurring. There also adherently may be the potential of consolidation occurring; but generally it means there is either a reversal, or consolidation + then a reversal or a continuation; however it may be apparent that the momentum has ended.
ES:
NQ:
BTC:
If you refer to the 3 examples above, we show how the ES, NQ and BTC look within a 5 minute scalping example. Essentially you’d make your decision on the Buy / Sell signal, the momentum signals, the Reversal Signals, the Trend Colors as well as other oscillators and Due Diligence.
Remember, there’s no such thing as a perfect entry / exit, the more you understand about trading and do your own Due Diligence the better. These Buy and Sell as well as Reversal signals attempt to locate and rank momentum shifts to help you identify where the momentum may be ending and reversing in the opposite direction.
Our zones defined by the Outer (red) and Inner (green) are representations of not only Support and Resistance locations, but likewise Overbought and Oversold locations. These zones help in multiple ways. The hard lines that define each zone's start / end are very useful locations of support / resistance which may indicate where the price will bounce off of. Likewise, when the price is within these zones it represents the price being Overbought or Oversold. Then the price is for instance within the Red Resistance Zone, what generally may happen is the price will correct quickly to get back to the ‘Black Empty Zone’ between the Red and Green zones; OR it may consolidate sideways until it has entered the ‘Black Empty Zone’. This is how the price may redeem itself back to being valued correctly. These zones help you identify and understand, in concatenation with our signals when and how much the price may move.
Our Settings are minimalistic so you don’t need to worry and get overwhelmed about changing values and trying to fiddle to find which values works the best for what. Our Algorithms will take care of all of that for you. Simply select the speeds for your Trend, Signals and Zones and you’re good to start trading! You can likewise customize what information is visible to you and the colors to better customize your experience.
Fast:
Medium:
Slow:
The 3 examples above display what the same portion of the chart looks like when Trend, Signal and Zone Sensitivity is changed from Fast, Medium and Slow.
As you can see, they all look quite different in the results they produce. By default all settings are set to Medium, however they can all be individually changed to suit your trading style and needs.
Our Indicator offers many different alert options which may help you stay informed with how the market is moving and any momentum changes that may occur.
Settings:
1. Algorithm Settings
Trend Sensitivity (Fast, Medium, Slow): Trend Sensitivity refers to how quickly the Trend Bar Colors change. Fast: will change colors very quickly if it senses momentum is changing. Medium: will change almost as quickly as Fast, however, rather than swapping from Bullish to Bearish momentum right away it has an intermediate 'Neutral - Slightly Bullish (Yellow)' and 'Neutral - Slightly Bearish (Orange)'. This way you can better visualize when the momentum is dying in the trend and starting back up by having these trend 'Neutral/Consolidation' areas. Slow: will attempt to only change Trend Bar Colors when the momentum has surely shifted. This may result in a bit of lagging behind.
Signal Sensitivity (Fast, Medium, Slow): Signal Sensitivity refers to how quickly the Buy & Sell Momentum Signals & Reversal Signals appear. These signals are meant to appear when it thinks the price may reverse, but the speeds refer to how much of a reversal they think may happen. Fast: will attempt to locate any and all momentum swings. Medium: will attempt to only locate momentum swings which may drive the price up considerably. Slow: will attempt to locate only the most extreme momentum swings. This may result in some potentially good ones missed however; but the ones it finds may have a higher probability of occuring.
Zone Sensitivity (Fast, Medium, Slow): Zone Sensitivity refers to how quickly the Zones expand based on price movement. These zones may be useful for not only seeing Support & Resistance; but also identifying when it is Overbought & Oversold; as well as visualizing volatility between the Black (Empty area) and the zones. The lines that separate each zone are the Support and Resistance locations; the area within the zones are simply the spacing between these Support and Resistance locations. However, the further the price is to the outer zones does represent Overbought and Oversold. Fast: will expand very quickly. This causes the price to be within the Black (Empty area) more often. This may be useful for finding extremities in price movement which may have a better chance of correcting. Medium: moves fast but not anywhere close to as fast as 'Fast'. Medium will hold its values in an attempt to be as accurate as possible for identifying Support and Resistance locations. Slow: will expand very slowly. This may be useful for identifying Support & Resistance as well as Volatility targets on higher time frames since these zones move much slower.
2. Display Settings:
Show Trend Bar Colors: Trend Bar Color are a way of seeing how the Trend is holding up on a bar by bar basis. This may be useful for seeing momentum starting, ending or simply dying down before any signals actually appear.
Signal Text Display (Both, Buy & Sell, Reversals, None: Signals are a way of seeing potential changes in momentum and when they have actually occurred. Our signals also rank from 1/5 to 5/5 how strong of a chance this momentum change may occur (only at the time of the signal, not at the time of the reversal). These may be useful as potential Entry and Exit locations; as well as when you see the reversal, you know that this momentum change has either begun or a consolidation may be occurring. If a consolidation occurs, the signal is no longer valid as the price can now go either way and it is best to wait for more signals or other technical analysis to determine momentum and movement.
Zone Display (All, Outer + Middle, Inner + Middle, Outer, Middle, Inner, None): Zones are composed of 3 areas above and below. These areas attempt to project Support & Resistance locations as well as display when the Price is Overbought and Oversold. You can specify which zones you wish to view, however all are important.
3. Color Settings:
Buy Color: This is the color of all Buy Signals and Zones.
Sell Color: This is the color of all Sell Signals and Zones.
Buy Reversal Color: This is the color of all Buy Signal Reversals.
Sell Reversal Color: This is the color of all Sell Signal Reversals.

Signals
Inversion Fair Value Gaps (IFVG) [LuxAlgo]The Inversion Fair Value Gaps (IFVG) indicator is based on the inversion FVG concept by ICT and provides support and resistance zones based on mitigated Fair Value Gaps (FVGs).
🔶 USAGE
Once mitigation of an FVG occurs, we detect the zone as an "Inverted FVG". This would now be looked upon for potential support or resistance.
Mitigation occurs when the price closes above or below the FVG area in the opposite direction of its bias.
Inverted Bullish FVGs Turn into Potential Zones of Resistance.
Inverted Bearish FVGs Turn into Potential Zones of Support.
After the FVG has been mitigated, returning an inversion FVG, a signal is displayed each time the price retests an IFVG zone and breaks below or above (depending on the direction of the FVG).
Keep in mind how IFVGs are calculated and displayed. Once price mitigates an IFVG, all associated graphical elements such as areas, lines, and signals will be deleted.
This indicator is not meant to be just a 'signal indicator'. Backtesting historical signals is incorrect as it does not consider the mitigation of IFVGs, which is a standard method for trading IFVGs & various concepts by ICT.
The signals displayed are meant for real-time analysis of current bars for discretionary analysis. Current confirmed retests of unmitigated IFVGs are still displayed to show which IFVGS have had significant reactions.
🔶 SETTINGS
Show Last: Specifies the number of most recent FVG Inversions to display in Bullish/Bearish pairs, starting at the current and looking back. Max 100 Pairs.
Signal Preference: Allows the user to choose to send signals based on the (Wicks) or (Close) Prices. This can be changed based on user preference.
ATR Multiplier: Filters FVGs based on ATR Width, The script will only detect Inversions that are greater than the ATR * ATR Width.
🔶 ALERTS
This script includes alert options for all signals.
🔹 Bearish Signal
A bearish signal occurs when the price returns to a bearish inversion zone and rejects to the downside.
🔹 Bullish Signal
A bullish signal occurs when the price returns to a bullish inversion zone and bounces out of the top.
VWAP RangeThe VWAP Range indicator is a highly versatile and innovative tool designed with trading signals for trading the supply and demand within consolidation ranges.
What's a VWAP?
A VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) represents an equilibrium point in the market, balancing supply and demand over a specified period. Unlike simple moving averages, VWAP gives more weight to periods with higher volume. This is crucial because large volumes indicate significant trading activity, often by institutional traders, whose actions can reflect deeper market insights or create substantial market movements. The VWAP is also often used as a benchmark to evaluate the efficiency of executed trades. If a trader buys below the VWAP and sells above it, they are generally considered to have transacted favourably.
This is how it works:
Multiple VWAP Anchors:
This indicator uses multiple VWAPs anchored to different optional time periods, such as Daily, Weekly, Monthly, as well as to the highest high a lowest low within those periods. This multiplicity allows for a comprehensive view of the market’s average price based on volume and price, tailored to different trading styles and strategies.
Dynamic and Fixed Periods:
Traders can choose between using dynamic ranges, which reset at the start of each selected period, and specifying a date and time for a particular fixed range to trade. This flexibility is crucial for analyzing price movements within specific ranges or market phases.
Fixed ranges allow VWAPs to be calculated and anchored to a significant market event, the beginning of a consolidation phase or after a major news announcement.
Signal Generation:
The indicator generates buy and sell signals based on the relationship of the price to the VWAPs. It also allows for setting a maximum number of signals in one direction to avoid overtrading or pyramiding. Be sure to wait for the candle close before trading on the signals.
Average Buy/Sell Signal Lines:
Lines can be plotted to display the average buy and sell signal prices. The difference between the lines shows the average profit per trade when trading on the signals in that range. It's a good way to see how profitable a range is on average without backtesting the signals. The lines will also often turn into support and resistance areas, similar to value areas in a volume profile.
Customizable Settings:
Traders have control over various settings, such as the VWAP calculation method and bar color. There are also tooltips for every function.
Hidden Feature:
There's a subtle feature in this indicator: if you have 'Indicator values' turned on in TradingView, you'll see a Sell/Buy Ratio displayed only in the status line. This ratio indicates whether there are more sell signals than buy signals in a range, regardless of the Max Signals setting. A red value above 1 suggests that the market is trending upward, indicating you might want to hold your long positions a bit longer. Conversely, a green value below 1 implies a downward trend.
Blockunity Excess Index (BEI)Identify excess zones resulting in market reversals by visualizing price deviations from an average.
The Excess Index (BEI) is designed to identify excess zones resulting in reversals, based on price deviations from a moving average. This moving average is fully customizable (type, period to be taken into account, etc.). This indicator also multiplies the moving average with a configurable coefficient, to give dynamic support and resistance levels. Finally, the BEI also provides reversal signals to alert you to any risk of trend change, on any asset.
The Idea
The goal is to provide the community with a visual and customizable tool for analyzing large price deviations from an average.
How to Use
Very simple to use, this indicator plots colored zones according to the price's deviation from the moving average. Moving average extensions also provide dynamic support and resistance. Finally, signals alert you to potential reversal points.
Elements
The Moving Average
The Moving Average, which defaults to a gray line over 200 periods, serves as a stable reference point. It is accompanied by an Index, whose color varies from yellow to orange to red, offering an overview of market conditions.
Extensions
These dynamic lines can be used to determine effective supports and resistances.
Signals
Green and red triangles serve as clear indicators for buy and sell signals.
Settings
Mainly, the type of moving average is configurable. The default is an SMA.
A Simple Moving Average (SMA) calculates the average of a selected range of prices by the number of periods in that range.
But you can also, for example, switch the mode to EMA.
The Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is a moving average that places a greater weight and significance on the most recent data points:
You also have WMA.
A Weighted Moving Average (WMA) gives more weight on recent data and less on past data:
And finally, the possibility of having a PCMA.
PCMA takes into account the highest and lowest points in the lookback period and divides this by two to obtain an average:
You can change other parameters such as lookback periods, as well as the coefficient used to define extension lines.
You can refer to the tooltips directly in the indicator parameters.
For those who prefer a minimalist display, you can activate a "Bar Color" in the settings (You must also uncheck "Borders" and "Wick" in your Chart Settings), and deactivate all other elements as you wish:
Finally, you can customize all the different colors, as well as the parameters of the table that indicates the Index value and the asset trend.
How it Works
The Index is calculated using the following method:
abs_distance = math.abs(close - base_ma)
bei = (abs_distance - ta.lowest(abs_distance, lookback_norm)) / (ta.highest(abs_distance, lookback_norm) - ta.lowest(abs_distance, lookback_norm)) * 100
Signals are triggered according to the following conditions:
A Long (buy) signal is triggered when the Index falls below 100, when the closing price is lower than 5 periods ago, and when the price is under the moving average.
A Short (sell) signal is triggered when the Index falls below 100, when the closing price is greater than 5 periods ago, and when the price is above the moving average.
ASFX A2 VWAP [LuxAlgo]The ASFX A2 VWAP is a toolkit based on A2 signals and daily anchored VWAP bands, a methodology proposed by trader & educator Austin Silver (ASFX).
Pre-built alerts are also included.
🔶 USAGE
The A2 strategy involves identifying potential trades using specific signals and confirmation from the 21 EMA (Exponential Moving Average). Below we can see a bullish A2 signal triggering as price is closing below the 21 EMA with less than half of the candles closing price.
Within the settings, we have enabled the stop loss setting to assist us with trade setups generated from A2 signals.
Users can enable multiple layers of StDev multipliers on the AAVWAP to find areas of support & resistance alongside the A2 signals & other features included.
🔶 DETAILS
If 'Filter Based On VWAP' is enabled, bullish signals will only be displayed if located above the anchored VWAP, while bearish signals will only be displayed when located under the VWAP. The image above illustrates this, with transparent signals showing the ones that are supposed to be filtered.
The Stop Loss is based on the most recent A2 signal, and is constructed from the 1.618 Fibonacci retracement using the following points depending on the A2 signal:
Bullish: From candle low to the current daily maximum.
Bearish: From candle high to current daily minimum.
🔶 SETTINGS

TrendGuard Pullback Trader Signals [Quantigenics]The "TrendGuard Pullback Trader Signals" script, integral to the "TrendGuard Pullback Trader" system, offers a sophisticated suite of trading tools for nearly any market or time frame. Designed to be used alongside the "TrendGuard Pullback Trader Indicators" script, this script is pivotal for identifying Buy/Sell Signals, Profit Target Signals, and Stop Loss Levels.
As with all of our scripts, the "TrendGuard Pullback Trader Signals" script, is designed to work on ANY symbol and time frame. The input parameters can be adjusted to fit your specific trading style.
Methodology and Application:
The script's core methodology lies in identifying primary signals at the onset of a trend and secondary signals during pullbacks or dips. It focuses on pinpointing optimal entry points during market pullbacks, enhancing the "TrendGuard Pullback Trader Indicators" script with well-timed signals for profit targets and stop loss levels.
Technical Composition:
The "TrendGuard Pullback Trader Signals" script combines various technical analysis tools to generate comprehensive trading signals. It calculates stop levels by assessing the highest and lowest bars over a chosen period, defining the market range. Primary signals are derived using a triple exponential moving average (EMA) of logarithmic closing prices, identifying trend changes with stop level plots and directional arrows. For secondary signals, the script uses a sequence of EMAs applied to the average price (HLC3) and an oscillator that measures the extremity of recent price movements, pinpointing potential entry points. The script also incorporates a sideways exit mechanism, comparing short-term and long-term EMAs of the average price to detect significant deviations, suggesting exit opportunities. This layered strategy offers a detailed perspective on market trends, momentum, and possible entry and exit points.
EMA-Based Trend Analysis Algorithm :
Utilizes an advanced algorithm that incorporates exponential moving averages (EMA) with specific length parameters. This algorithm analyzes the slope and direction of EMA lines to identify significant shifts in market trends.
Primary Signal Generation : Logarithmic and Triple EMA Function:
Primary signals are derived from a unique logarithmic function applied to price data, which is then processed through a series of three EMAs with distinct period settings. This combination targets potential trend initiation points by detecting shifts in the logarithmic trend curve.
Dynamic Stop Level Determination :
Employs a methodology involving the calculation of recent high and low price bars, adjusted by a factor that considers market volatility. This factor dynamically alters the sensitivity of the stop levels, aligning them with current market conditions.
Secondary Signal Identification During Pullbacks :
Secondary signals are identified through a complex comparison of the market's relative position to its moving averages. This involves calculating the divergence between price and moving averages, adjusted for the rate of change in the market, to flag strategic entry points during pullbacks.
Composite Market Trend Analysis for Signal Mechanism :
Signal generation integrates a composite of multiple technical indicators, each contributing unique mathematical calculations. This integration enhances the accuracy and reliability of entry and exit signals.
Practical Application in Trading :
> For trade initiation, primary signals are used to identify the start of potential trends, applying a specific mathematical threshold to confirm the trend change. Secondary signals focus on quantifying the pullback depth relative to recent market movements for additional entry opportunities.
> The script's dynamic stop loss adjustment incorporates a calculated moving average of recent highs and lows, providing a responsive and protective mechanism for open positions.
How to Use the Script:
Trade Initiation : Primary signals at trend onset can be used for potential entry points, or to simply establish a trend-bias, to watch for Strategic Entries signals.
Strategic Entries on Pullbacks : Secondary signals provide opportunities for additional entries or scaling into positions during pullbacks within the main trend.
Profit Targets and Exit Strategy : Profit target signals serve as potential exit points. For larger positions, consider partial exits at these targets while adjusting stop loss levels to secure profits, and hold the remaining position for further potential gains.
Dynamic Risk Management : Regularly adjust stop loss levels based on the script's dynamic stop level determination to protect against market reversals and lock in profits.
Integration with TrendGuard Pullback Trader Indicators:
The script is designed and intended to be used in conjunction with the "TrendGuard Pullback Trader Indicators ". This integration ensures a holistic approach to market analysis, combining the strengths of both scripts for a comprehensive understanding of market trends, momentum, and entry points.
Note: The lower indicators are from the 'TrendGuard Pullback Trader Indicators' script, complementing the 'TrendGuard Pullback Trader Signals' script seen here, which generates the 'cloud' and signals on the price chart.
The 'TrendGuard Pullback Traders Indicators” script can be found here :
Input Parameter Settings:
Important Usage Guidance: For seamless integration with its counterpart, the "TrendGuard Pullback Trader Indicators" script, it's crucial to align the input parameter settings across both scripts. When adjusting values from their defaults, ensure that corresponding parameters in both scripts are identically set. This synchronization is key to achieving a cohesive and accurate representation on your charts.
Intra-Bar Order Generation (IntraBar): Determines whether signals are generated within the current bar or only after it closes, enhancing flexibility in signal timing.
Stop Level Strength (StopLvlStr): Sets the strength for calculating stop levels, impacting the sensitivity of the script to market highs and lows for stop placement.
Primary Signal Display (PrimON_OFF): Toggles the visibility of primary signals on the chart, aiding in identifying trend initiation points.
Secondary Signal Display (SecON_OFF): Controls the display of secondary signals for opportunities during pullbacks, allowing traders to capitalize on additional entry points.
Stop Loss Level Display (StopLossLvls): Enables or disables the visualization of stop loss levels, crucial for risk management strategies.

Cloud Channel Signals Indicator [Quantigenics]The Cloud Channel Signals script is a key element of the Cloud Channel Signal System. It primarily focuses on identifying breakout and reversal trades through a sophisticated cloud channel overlay. The script, designed for overlay on the price portion of charts, displays a “cloud-like” channel that signals potential breakout and reversal points around the candles/bars, offering insights into price movements, volatility, and potential support or resistance zones at the outer bands of the channel.
As with all of our scripts, the "Cloud Channel Signals" script, is designed to work on ANY symbol and time frame. The input parameters can be adjusted to fit your specific trading style.
Technical Composition :
Cloud Channel Construction : The Cloud Channel Signals Script is characterized by its innovative Cloud Channel, a proprietary formulation that advances beyond traditional channel calculations. This channel is not a mere adaptation of Bollinger Bands or Donchian Channels; it sets itself apart through a complex blend of calculations. While incorporating elements like standard deviation and high/low price ranges, it notably introduces EMA-based adjustments and integrates intricate mathematical models. This sophisticated algorithmic approach results in a channel that adeptly marks price extremes and dynamically adapts to market volatility and trend shifts. Enhanced by advanced statistical methods, the Cloud Channel offers nuanced insights into market behavior. Its configuration is based on specific range calculations derived from price fluctuations over a defined period, paired with an evolved standard deviation method. This results in a multifaceted analytical tool that surpasses typical channel indicators in depth and sophistication, providing traders with a comprehensive, nuanced view of support and resistance areas.
Signal Generation Mechanism :
> Breakout Signals :
The script identifies breakout signals by assessing price crossover relative to a dynamically constructed channel. This channel is derived from a blend of moving averages and price extremes over a specified period. Oscillator crossovers aid in confirming breakout signals. These crossovers are determined by comparing the oscillator line, calculated as a difference between a transformed moving average and a kernel estimation, with a signal line derived from an exponential moving average of the oscillator.
> Reversal Signals :
Reversal signals are generated through mathematical analysis of price proximity to the channel's edges, which are calculated using a combination of EMA (Exponential Moving Average) values and the highest/lowest price points within a given time frame. The oscillator's role in identifying reversals involves assessing its value relative to its historical range, which is dynamically adjusted based on market conditions.
Oscillator Dynamics :
The oscillator is constructed using a combination of rational quadratic and Gaussian kernel functions applied to close prices. The length parameter of the oscillator controls the window of these calculations, impacting its responsiveness. The dynamic level adjustment in the oscillator is based on a calculated average of its peak and trough values over a specified period, offering adaptive sensitivity.
Channel Gradient Smoothness :
The gradient smoothness of the channel is a function of the variance between the channel's upper and lower bounds. This is visually represented through color intensity changes, reflecting the level of volatility and market momentum.
Trend Bias Assessment :
Trend Bias is calculated using a combination of high/low averages and smoothed price data. This involves taking the average of the highest and lowest prices over a specified length, then applying an exponential moving average to this average for trend direction assessment. This mathematical assessment of trend direction complements the breakout and reversal signals by aligning them with the prevailing market trend.
How to Use the Cloud Channel Signals System :
Usage Considerations:
The script must be configured with precision to ensure it aligns with the trader’s strategy. This involves meticulous setting of channel lengths, oscillator parameters, and trend bias length. For effective application, it’s essential to synchronize the input parameters with the companion "Cloud Channel Indicators" script, ensuring a unified analytical perspective. The option to choose real-time vs. post-bar-closure signal generation offers flexibility in trading styles, catering to both aggressive and conservative trading approaches.

Martingale + Grid DCA Strategy [YinYangAlgorithms]This Strategy focuses on strategically Martingaling when the price has dropped X% from your current Dollar Cost Average (DCA). When it does Martingale, it will create a Purchase Grid around this location to likewise attempt to get you a better DCA. Likewise following the Martingale strategy, it will sell when your Profit has hit your target of X%.
Martingale may be an effective way to lower your DCA. This is due to the fact that if your initial purchase; or in our case, initial Grid, all went through and the price kept going down afterwards, that you may purchase more to help lower your DCA even more. By doing so, you may bring your DCA down and effectively may make it easier and quicker to reach your target profit %.
Grid trading may be an effective way of reducing risk and lowering your DCA as you are spreading your purchases out over multiple different locations. Likewise we offer the ability to ‘Stack Grids’. What this means, is that if a single bar was to go through 20 grids, the purchase amount would be 20x what each grid is valued at. This may help get you a lower DCA as rather than creating 20 purchase orders at each grid location, we create a single purchase order at the lowest grid location, but for 20x the amount.
By combining both Martingale and Grid DCA techniques we attempt to lower your DCA strategically until you have reached your target profit %.
Before we start, we just want to make it known that first off, this Strategy features 8% Commission Fees, you may change this in the Settings to better reflect the Commission Fees of your exchange. On a similar note, due to Commission Fees being one of the number one profit killers in fast swing trade strategies, this strategy doesn’t focus on low trades, but the ideology of it may result in low amounts of trades. Please keep in mind this is not a bad thing. Since it has the ability to ‘Stack Grid Purchases’ it may purchase more for less and result in more profit, less commission fees, and likewise less # of trades.
Tutorial:
In this example above, we have it set so we Martingale twice, and we use 100 grids between the upper and lower level of each martingale; for a total of 200 Grids. This strategy will take total capital (initial capital + net profit) and divide it by the amount of grids. This will result in the $ amount purchased per grid. For instance, say you started with $10,000 and you’ve made $2000 from this Strategy so far, your total capital is $12,000. If you likewise are implementing 200 grids within your Strategy, this will result in $12,000 / 200 = $60 per grid. However, please note, that the further down the grid / martingale is, the more volume it is able to purchase for $60.
The white line within the Strategy represents your DCA. As the Strategy makes purchases, this will continue to get lower as will your Target Profit price (Blue Line). When the Close goes above your Target Profit price, the Strategy will close all open positions and claim the profit. This profit is then reinvested back into the Strategy, which may exponentially help the Strategy become more profitable the longer it runs for.
In the example above, we’ve zoomed in on the first example. In this we want to focus on how the Strategy got back into the trades shortly after it sold. Currently within the Settings we have it set so our entry is when the Lowest with a length of 3 is less than the previous Lowest with a length of 3. This is 100% customizable and there are multiple different entry options you can choose from and customize such as:
EMA 7 Crossover EMA 21
EMA 7 Crossunder EMA 21
RSI 14 Crossover RSI MA 14
RSI 14 Crossunder RSI MA 14
MFI 14 Crossover MFI MA 14
MFI 14 Crossunder MFI MA 14
Lowest of X Length < Previous Lowest of X Length
Highest of X Length > Previous Highest of X Length
All of these entry options may be tailored to be checked for on a different Time Frame than the one you are currently using the Strategy on. For instance, you may be running the Strategy on the 15 minute Time Frame yet decide you want the RSI to cross over the RSI MA on the 1 Day to be a valid entry location.
Please keep in mind, this Strategy focuses on DCA, this means you may not want the initial purchase to be the best location. You may want to buy when others think it is a good time to sell. This is because there may be strong bearish momentum which drives the price down drastically and potentially getting you a good DCA before it corrects back up.
We will continue to add more Entry options as time goes on, and if you have any in mind please don’t hesitate to let us know.
Now, back to the example above, if we refer to the Yellow circle, you may see that the Lowest of a length of 3 was less than its previous lowest, this triggered the martingales to create their grids. Only a few bars later, the price went into the first grid and went a little lower than its midpoint (Yellow line). This caused about 60% of the first grid to be purchased. Shortly after the price went even lower into this grid and caused the entire first martingale grid to be purchased. However, if you notice, the white line (your DCA) is lower than the midpoint of the first grid. This is due to the fact that we have ‘Stack Grid Purchases’ enabled. This allows the Strategy to purchase more when a single bar crosses through multiple grid locations; and effectively may lower your average more than if it simply executed a purchase order at each grid.
Still looking at the same location within our next example, if we simply increase the Martingale amount from 2 to 3 we can see something strange happens. What happened is our Target Profit price was reached, then our entry condition was met, which caused all of the martingale grids to be formed; however, the price continued to increase afterwards. This may not be a good thing, sure the price could correct back down to these grid locations, but what if it didn’t and it just kept increasing? This would result in this Strategy being stuck and unable to make any trades. For this reason we have implemented a Failsafe in the Settings called ‘Reset Grids if no purchase happens after X bars’.
We have enabled our Failsafe ‘Reset Grids if no purchase happens after X bars’ in this example above. By default it is set to 100 bars, but you can change this to whatever works best for you. If you set it to 0, this Failsafe will be disabled and act like the example prior where it is possible to be stuck with no trades executing.
This Failsafe may be an important way to ensure the Strategy is able to make purchases, however it may also mean the Grids increase in price when it is used, and if a massive correction were to occur afterwards, you may lose out on potential profit.
This Strategy was designed with WebHooks in mind. WebHooks allow you to send signals from the Strategy to your exchange. Simply set up a Custom TradingView Bot within the OKX exchange or 3Commas platform (which has your exchange API), enter the data required from the bot into the settings here, select your bot type in ‘Webhook Alert Type’, and then set up the alert. After that you’re good to go and this Strategy will fully automate all of its trades within your exchange for you. You need to format the Alert a certain way for it to work, which we will go over in the next example.
Add an alert for this Strategy and simply modify the alert message so all it says is:
{{strategy.order.alert_message}}
Likewise change from the Alert ‘Settings’ to Alert ‘Notifications’ at the top of the alert popup. Within the Notifications we will enable ‘Webhook URL’ and then we will pass the URL we are sending the Webhook to. In this example we’ve put OKX exchange Webhook URL, however if you are using 3Commas you’ll need to change this to theirs.
OKX Webhook URL:
www.okx.com
3Commas Webhook URL:
app.3commas.io
Make sure you click ‘Create’ to actually create this alert. After that you’re all set! There are many Tutorials videos you can watch if you are still a little confused as to how Webhook trading works.
Due to the nature of this Strategy and how it is designed to work, it has the ability to never sell unless there it will make profit. However, because of this it also may be stuck waiting in trades for quite a long period of time (usually a few months); especially when your Target Profit % is 15% like in the example above. However, this example above may be a good indication that it may maintain profitability for a long period of time; considering this ‘Deep Backtest’ is from 2017-8-17.
We will conclude the tutorial here. Hopefully you understand how this Strategy has the potential to make calculated and strategic DCA Grid purchases for you and then based on a traditional Martingale fashion, bulk sell at the desired Target Profit Percent.
Settings:
Purchase Settings:
Only Purchase if its lower than DCA: Generally speaking, we want to lower our Average, and therefore it makes sense to only buy when the close is lower than our current DCA and a Purchase Condition is met.
Purchase Condition: When creating the initial buy location you must remember, you want to Buy when others are Fearful and Sell when others are Greedy. Therefore, many of the Buy conditions involve times many would likewise Sell. This is one of the bonuses to using a Strategy like this as it will attempt to get you a good entry location at times people are selling.
Lower / Upper Change Length: This Lower / Upper Length is only used if the Purchase Condition is set to 'Lower Changed' or 'Upper Changed'. This is when the Lowest or Highest of this length changes. Lowest would become lower or Highest would become higher.
Purchase Resolution: Purchase Resolution is the Time Frame that the Purchase Condition is calculated on. For instance, you may only want to start a new Purchase Order when the RSI Crosses RSI MA on the 1 Day, but yet you run this Strategy on the 15 minutes.
Sell Settings:
Trailing Take Profit: Trailing Take Profit is where once your Target Profit Percent has been hit, this will trail up to attempt to claim even more profit.
Target Profit Percent: What is your Target Profit Percent? The Strategy will close all positions when the close price is greater than your DCA * this Target Profit Percent.
Grid Settings:
Stack Grid Purchases: If a close goes through multiple Buy Grids in one bar, should we amplify its purchase amount based on how many grids it went through?
Reset Grids if no purchase happens after X Bars: Set this to 0 if you never want to reset. This is very useful in case the price is very bullish and continues to increase after our Target Profit location is hit. What may happen is, Target Profit location is hit, then the Entry condition is met but the price just keeps increasing afterwards. We may not want to be sitting waiting for the price to drop, which may never happen. This is more of a failsafe if anything. You may set it very large, like 500+ if you only want to use it in extreme situations.
Grid % Less than Initial Purchase Price: How big should our Buy Grid be? For instance if we bought at 0.25 and this value is set to 20%, that means our Buy Grid spans from 0.2 - 0.25.
Grid Amounts: How many Grids should we create within our Buy location?
Martingale Settings:
Amount of Times 'Planned' to Martingale: The more Grids + the More Martingales = the less $ spent per grid, however the less risk. Remember it may be better to be right and take your time than risk too much and be stuck too long.
Martingale Percent: When the current price is this percent less than our DCA, lets create another Buy Grid so we can lower our average more. This will make our profit location less.
Webhook Alerts:
Webhook Alert Type: How should we format this Alert? 3Commas and OKX take their alerts differently, so please select the proper one or your webhooks won't work.
3Commas Webhook Alerts:
3Commas Bot ID: The 3Commas Bot ID is needed so we know which BOT ID we are sending this webhook too.
3Commas Email Token: The 3Commas Email Token is needed for your webhooks to work properly as it is linked to your account.
OKX Webhook Alerts:
OKX Signal Token: This Signal Token is attached to your OKX bot and will be used to access it within OKX.
If you have any questions, comments, ideas or concerns please don't hesitate to contact us.

Velocity and Acceleration SignalsThe "Velocity and Acceleration Signals" indicator is a versatile tool designed to provide traders with valuable insights into price momentum and acceleration. By harnessing the power of mathematics and visualization, this indicator helps traders make informed decisions in the fast-paced world of financial markets.
Crunching the Numbers: How It Works
At its core, the indicator relies on two key concepts: velocity and acceleration. Here's how it operates:
-- Velocity Calculation : The indicator takes a step back in time, considering a user-defined historical period (typically around 14 bars). It calculates the velocity of price movements during this period. Velocity represents the speed at which an asset's price is changing and is derived by examining how much the price has moved between bars. Specifically, it computes the rate of change in price over time.
-- Acceleration Calculation : Building upon velocity, the indicator goes one step further and calculates acceleration. Acceleration signifies how quickly the velocity is changing. It quantifies whether the price is speeding up or slowing down in its ascent or descent.
-- Smoothing with EMA : To enhance clarity and reduce noise, the indicator smooths the velocity using an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) with a user-defined length. This smoothed velocity provides a more comprehensive view of the price momentum trend.
Visualizing Market Dynamics
The indicator doesn't just crunch numbers; it also paints a vivid picture of market sentiment:
-- Coloration : The indicator employs a color scheme to visualize market conditions. It uses lime for positive acceleration and fuchsia for negative acceleration. The color green represents positive smoothed velocity, while red denotes negative smoothed velocity. A gray hue signals a neutral or transitional phase.
-- Plotting Velocity and Acceleration : The indicator provides visual representations of both smoothed velocity and acceleration. Smoothed velocity is depicted as columns, with green or red coloring indicating the direction. Acceleration is displayed as a histogram, with lime or fuchsia bars showcasing bullish or bearish momentum. A gray zero line offers a reference point for changes in momentum direction.
-- Strong Up and Strong Down Conditions : For traders seeking distinctive signals, the indicator identifies "Strong Up" and "Strong Down" conditions. A "Strong Up" occurs when smoothed velocity crosses above a user-defined threshold, coupled with positive acceleration. Conversely, a "Strong Down" emerges when smoothed velocity crosses below another threshold, accompanied by negative acceleration. These conditions are marked with prominent triangular shapes.
Unlocking Trading Potential
Now, let's explore how traders can leverage the indicator:
-- Trend Confirmation : Traders can use this indicator to validate the prevailing market trend. A robust smoothed velocity, combined with acceleration in the same direction, can confirm the current trend.
-- Contrarian Signals : Extreme conditions signaled by a strong crossover or crossunder of the smoothed velocity threshold, along with appropriate acceleration, can hint at potential trend reversals.
-- Divergence Analysis : Savvy traders can employ this indicator to identify divergences between price movements and momentum. If the price exhibits higher highs while the indicator shows lower highs (or vice versa), it may signify a weakening or strengthening trend.
Navigating Limitations
As with any trading tool, it's essential to acknowledge the indicator's limitations:
-- Lookback Period : The indicator's effectiveness may vary based on the chosen historical period. Longer periods smooth out fluctuations but may lag in capturing recent changes in sentiment.
-- Threshold Sensitivity : Interpreting threshold crossovers or crossunders can be subjective. Traders should carefully fine-tune these threshold values based on their trading strategy and market conditions.
-- Context Matters : The indicator focuses solely on velocity and acceleration signals and does not incorporate other critical factors such as trading volume, market news, or fundamental analysis. Therefore, traders should use it in conjunction with additional indicators and analysis techniques.
While the primary focus is on trend and momentum analysis, this indicator indirectly provides information about volatility as well. Rapid changes in velocity and acceleration can indicate increasing volatility in the market, which may be of interest to traders looking for opportunities during volatile conditions.
However, this indicator doesn't directly measure volume. To incorporate volume analysis into your trading strategy, you may want to combine this indicator with volume-based indicators or consider other tools specifically designed for volume analysis.
In conclusion, this indicator is a valuable ally for traders looking to decode market dynamics and make data-driven trading decisions. While it offers powerful insights, it's crucial to recognize its limitations and deploy it as part of a comprehensive trading strategy.

Trend Lines [LuxAlgo]Our new "Trend Lines" indicator detects and highlights relevant trendlines on the user chart while keeping it free of as much clutter as possible.
The indicator is thought for real-time usage and includes several filters as well as the ability to estimate trendline angles.
🔶 USAGE
Trendlines can act as support/resistance, with a higher number of tests indicating a more significant support/resistance role.
A broken TrendLine can be indicative of a potential trend reversal. The script highlights breaks with a label.
Users can additionally filter trendlines, only showing trendlines whose angles fall within a user set range:
This allows for the removal of potential clutter from the chart but also helps keep steeper or more horizontal trendlines.
🔶 DETAILS
When a swing (pivot point) is found, a Trendline is drawn when certain conditions are fulfilled.
An essential condition is that a Bearish Trendline (red) always occurs on a lower high, while a Bullish Trendline (blue) occurs on a higher low.
Our implementation will first show an initial dotted-styled TrendLine on confirmation, after which a solid-styled secondary TrendLine will develop. The latter will be used for the real-time detection of breaks at that line:
Furthermore, the script allows you to add more conditions:
🔹 Length (Swings)
A swing develops when a high/low is the highest/lowest against x highs/lows on the left AND right of that bar. x can be set by "Length" in settings.
The following images clarify this. The script confirms a swing where the yellow flag is shown; the high (here visualized with a purple label) is the highest point against x bars left and right of that point.
At that moment, this swing is checked against the previous swing. If all conditions are fulfilled, an initial TrendLine is drawn on confirmation.
After that point, a secondary thicker solid line is seen which keeps progressing bar after bar, until:
• a new TrendLine is formed
• the TrendLine is broken
🔹 Breaks between Swings
Once there is confirmation that a TrendLine can be drawn, the script allows you to filter for breakthroughs on that line. This can be set with "Check breaks between"
Disabled : the initial TrendLine is allowed to be pierced:
Check breaks between point A - point B : no breaks are allowed between both Swing points:
Point A - Current bar : no breaks are allowed between the first Swing point and the point of confirmation ('current' bar):
🔹 TrendLine breaks
As mentioned, the secondary TrendLine (solid line) progresses bar after bar until a new TrendLine is formed or the TrendLine is broken. When a TrendLine is broken, the TrendLine stops progressing, but if there isn't a new TrendLine and price return back, the TrendLine will re-appear, potentially giving several signals when the TrendLine is broken again.
Minimal bars allow you to regulate the amount of signals when the TrendLine is broken.
-> The secondary TrendLine must be uninterrupted for at least x bars before a potential break can be considered.
The following example shows 1 signal against 3 by adjusting this setting from 2 to 5:
🔹 Angles
Angles should normally be calculated when the units of the X and Y axis are the same. However, on our charts, the unit of the X-axis is bar_index (bars), and on the Y-axis the unit is price (¥, €, £, $,...).
It is not easy to normalize and create reasonably valid angles. Often certain angle calculations can differ through price changes or volatility.
Our calculate_slope() function tries to make corresponding angles through all bars.
We do this by calculating the difference between the highest/lowest price values in a certain bar range. The bar range is our X-axis, and the price difference is our Y-axis.
Zooming in/out will not change the amount of bars or the price. Since it does change our view on the chart, and thereby how we see the angles, we have included a setting where you can personalize the ratio between X and Y-axis (Angles -> Ratio X-Y axis).
Settings: Angles - Ratio X-Y axis:
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Swings
Length: Lookback period for the detection of swing points.
🔹 Trendline validation
Check breaks between :
Disabled : the initial TrendLine is allowed to be pierced
Check breaks between point A - point B : no breaks are allowed between both Swing points
Point A - Current bar : no breaks are allowed between the first Swing point and the point of confirmation ('current' bar)
Source (breaks) : Source which invalidates TrendLine, default: close
🔹 TrendLine breaks
Minimal bars : The secondary TrendLine must be uninterrupted for at least x bars before a potential break can be considered.
🔹 Angles
Show : Toggle labels.
Ratio X-Y axis : Every user has his preferences regarding zoom, chart layout,...
If the shown angles are not according to your expectations, you can adjust this number.
Only TrendLine between : Only allow TrendLines between the minimum and maximum degrees. Set only the minimal and maximum values above 0.
Machine Learning: Donchian DCA Grid Strategy [YinYangAlgorithms]This strategy uses a Machine Learning approach on the Donchian Channels with a DCA and Grid purchase/sell Strategy. Not only that, but it uses a custom Bollinger calculation to determine its Basis which is used as a mild sell location. This strategy is a pure DCA strategy in the sense that no shorts are used and theoretically it can be used in webhooks on most exchanges as it’s only using Spot Orders. The idea behind this strategy is we utilize both the Highest Highs and Lowest Lows within a Machine Learning standpoint to create Buy and Sell zones. We then fraction these zones off into pieces to create Grids. This allows us to ‘micro’ purchase as it enters these zones and likewise ‘micro’ sell as it goes up into the upper (sell) zones.
You have the option to set how many grids are used, by default we use 100 with max 1000. These grids can be ‘stacked’ together if a single bar is to go through multiple at the same time. For instance, if a bar goes through 30 grids in one bar, it will have a buy/sell power of 30x. Stacking Grid Buy and (sometimes) Sells is a very crucial part of this strategy that allows it to purchase multitudes during crashes and capitalize on sales during massive pumps.
With the grids, you’ll notice there is a middle line within the upper and lower part that makes the grid. As a Purchase Type within our Settings this is identified as ‘Middle of Zone Purchase Amount In USDT’. The middle of the grid may act as the strongest grid location (aside from maybe the bottom). Therefore there is a specific purchase amount for this Grid location.
This DCA Strategy also features two other purchase methods. Most importantly is its ‘Purchase More’ type. Essentially it will attempt to purchase when the Highest High or Lowest Low moves outside of the Outer band. For instance, the Lowest Low becomes Lower or the Higher High becomes Higher. When this happens may be a good time to buy as it is featuring a new High or Low over an extended period.
The last but not least Purchase type within this Strategy is what we call a ‘Strong Buy’. The reason for this is its verified by the following:
The outer bounds have been pushed (what causes a ‘Purchase More’)
The Price has crossed over the EMA 21
It has been verified through MACD, RSI or MACD Historical (Delta) using Regular and Hidden Divergence (Note, only 1 of these verifications is required and it can be any).
By default we don’t have Purchase Amount for ‘Strong Buy’ set, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be viable, it simply means we have only seen a few pairs where it actually proved more profitable allocating money there rather than just increasing the purchase amount for ‘Purchase More’ or ‘Grids’.
Now that you understand where we BUY, we should discuss when we SELL.
This Strategy features 3 crucial sell locations, and we will discuss each individually as they are very important.
1. ‘Sell Some At’: Here there are 4 different options, by default its set to ‘Both’ but you can change it around if you want. Your options are:
‘Both’ - You will sell some at both locations. The amount sold is the % used at ‘Sell Some %’.
‘Basis Line’ - You will sell some when the price crosses over the Basis Line. The amount sold is the % used at ‘Sell Some %’.
‘Percent’ - You will sell some when the Close is >= X% between the Lower Inner and Upper Inner Zone.
‘None’ - This simply means don’t ever Sell Some.
2. Sell Grids. Sell Grids are exactly like purchase grids and feature the same amount of grids. You also have the ability to ‘Stack Grid Sells’, which basically means if a bar moves multiple grids, it will stack the amount % wise you will sell, rather than just selling the default amount. Sell Grids use a DCA logic but for selling, which we deem may help adjust risk/reward ratio for selling, especially if there is slow but consistent bullish movement. It causes these grids to constantly push up and therefore when the close is greater than them, accrue more profit.
3. Take Profit. Take profit occurs when the close first goes above the Take Profit location (Teal Line) and then Closes below it. When Take Profit occurs, ALL POSITIONS WILL BE SOLD. What may happen is the price enters the Sell Grid, doesn’t go all the way to the top ‘Exiting it’ and then crashes back down and closes below the Take Profit. Take Profit is a strong location which generally represents a strong profit location, and that a strong momentum has changed which may cause the price to revert back to the buy grid zone.
Keep in mind, if you have (by default) ‘Only Sell If Profit’ toggled, all sell locations will only create sell orders when it is profitable to do so. Just cause it may be a good time to sell, doesn’t mean based on your DCA it is. In our opinion, only selling when it is profitable to do so is a key part of the DCA purchase strategy.
You likewise have the ability to ‘Only Buy If Lower than DCA’, which is likewise by default. These two help keep the Yin and Yang by balancing each other out where you’re only purchasing and selling when it makes logical sense too, even if that involves ignoring a signal and waiting for a better opportunity.
Tutorial:
Like most of our Strategies, we try to capitalize on lower Time Frames, generally the 15 minutes so we may find optimal entry and exit locations while still maintaining a strong correlation to trend patterns.
First off, let’s discuss examples of how this Strategy works prior to applying Machine Learning (enabled by default).
In this example above we have disabled the showing of ‘Potential Buy and Sell Signals’ so as to declutter the example. In here you can see where actual trades had gone through for both buying and selling and get an idea of how the strategy works. We also have disabled Machine Learning for this example so you can see the hard lines created by the Donchian Channel. You can also see how the Basis line ‘white line’ may act as a good location to ‘Sell Some’ and that it moves quite irregularly compared to the Donchian Channel. This is due to the fact that it is based on two custom Bollinger Bands to create the basis line.
Here we zoomed out even further and moved back a bit to where there were dense clusters of buy and sell orders. Sometimes when the price is rather volatile you’ll see it ‘Ping Pong’ back and forth between the buy and sell zones quite quickly. This may be very good for your trades and profit as a whole, especially if ‘Only Buy If Lower Than DCA’ and ‘Only Sell If Profit’ are both enabled; as these toggles will ensure you are:
Always lowering your Average when buying
Always making profit when selling
By default 8% commission is added to the Strategy as well, to simulate the cost effects of if these trades were taking place on an actual exchange.
In this example we also turned on the visuals for our ‘Purchase More’ (orange line) and ‘Take Profit’ (teal line) locations. These are crucial locations. The Purchase More makes purchases when the bottom of the grid has been moved (may dictate strong price movement has occurred and may be potential for correction). Our Take Profit may help secure profit when a momentum change is happening and all of the Sell Grids weren’t able to be used.
In the example above we’ve enabled Buy and Sell Signals so that you can see where the Take Profit and Purchase More signals have occurred. The white circle demonstrates that not all of the Position Size was sold within the Sell Grids, and therefore it was ALL CLOSED when the price closed below the Take Profit Line (Teal).
Then, when the bottom of the Donchian Channel was pushed further down due to the close (within the yellow circle), a Purchase More Signal was triggered.
When the close keeps pushing the bottom of the Buy Grid lower, it can cause multiple Purchase More Signals to occur. This is normal and also a crucial part of this strategy to help lower your DCA. Please note, the Purchase More won’t trigger a Buy if the Close is greater than the DCA and you have ‘Only Purchase If Lower Than DCA’ activated.
By turning on Machine Learning (default settings) the Buy and Sell Grid Zones are smoothed out more. It may cause it to look quite a bit different. Machine Learning although it looks much worse, may help increase the profit this Strategy can produce. Previous results DO NOT mean future results, but in this example, prior to turning on Machine Learning it had produced 37% Profit in ~5 months and with Machine Learning activated it is now up to 57% Profit in ~5 months.
Machine Learning causes the Strategy to focus less on Grids and more on Purchase More when it comes to getting its entries. However, if you likewise attempt to focus on Purchase More within non Machine Learning, the locations are different and therefore the results may not be as profitable.
PLEASE NOTE:
By default this strategy uses 1,000,000 as its initial capital. The amount it purchases in its Settings is relevant to this Initial capital. Considering this is a DCA Strategy, we only want to ‘Micro’ Buy and ‘Micro’ Sell whenever conditions are met.
Therefore, if you increase the Initial Capital, you’ll likewise want to increase the Purchase Amounts within the Settings and Vice Versa. For instance, if you wish to set the Initial Capital to 10,000, you should likewise can the amounts in the Settings to 1% of what they are to account for this.
We may change the Purchase Amounts to be based on %’s in a later update if it is requested.
We will conclude this Tutorial here, hopefully you can see how a DCA Grid Purchase Model applied to Machine Learning Donchian Channels may be useful for making strategic purchases in low and high zones.
Settings:
Display Data:
Show Potential Buy Locations: These locations are where 'Potentially' orders can be placed. Placement of orders is dependant on if you have 'Only Buy If Lower Than DCA' toggled and the Price is lower than DCA. It also is effected by if you actually have any money left to purchase with; you can't buy if you have no money left!
Show Potential Sell Locations: These locations are where 'Potentially' orders will be sold. If 'Only Sell If Profit' is toggled, the sell will only happen if you'll make profit from it!
Show Grid Locations: Displaying won't affect your trades but it can be useful to see where trades will be placed, as well as which have gone through and which are left to be purchased. Max 100 Grids, but visuals will only be shown if its 20 or less.
Purchase Settings:
Only Buy if its lower than DCA: Generally speaking, we want to lower our Average, and therefore it makes sense to only buy when the close is lower than our current DCA and a Purchase Condition is met.
Compound Purchases: Compounding Purchases means reinvesting profit back into your trades right away. It drastically increases profits, but it also increases risk too. It will adjust your Purchase Amounts for the Purchase Type you have set at the same % rate of strategy initial_capital to the amounts you have set.
Adjust Purchase Amount Ratio to Maintain Risk level: By adjusting purchase levels we generally help maintain a safe risk level. Basically we generally want to reserve X amount of % for each purchase type being used and relocate money when there is too much in one type. This helps balance out purchase amounts and ensure the types selected have a correct ratio to ensure they can place the right amount of orders.
Stack Grid Buys: Stacking Buy Grids is when the Close crosses multiple Buy Grids within the same bar. Should we still only purchase the value of 1 Buy Grid OR stack the grid buys based on how many buy grids it went through.
Purchase Type: Where do you want to make Purchases? We recommend lowering your risk by combining All purchase types, but you may also customize your trading strategy however you wish.
Strong Buy Purchase Amount In USDT: How much do you want to purchase when the 'Strong Buy' signal appears? This signal only occurs after it has at least entered the Buy Zone and there have been other verifications saying it's now a good time to buy. Our Strong Buy Signal is a very strong indicator that a large price movement towards the Sell Zone will likely occur. It almost always results in it leaving the Buy Zone and usually will go to at least the White Basis line where you can 'Sell Some'.
Buy More Purchase Amount In USDT: How much should you purchase when the 'Purchase More' signal appears? This 'Purchase More' signal occurs when the lowest level of the Buy Zone moves lower. This is a great time to buy as you're buying the dip and generally there is a correction that will allow you to 'Sell Some' for some profit.
Amount of Grid Buy and Sells: How many Grid Purchases do you want to make? We recommend having it at the max of 10, as it will essentially get you a better Average Purchase Price, but you may adjust it to whatever you wish. This amount also only matters if your Purchase Type above incorporates Grid Purchases. Max 100 Grids, but visuals will only be shown if it's 20 or less.
Each Grid Purchase Amount In USDT: How much should you purchase after closing under a grid location? Keep in mind, if you have 10 grids and it goes through each, it will be this amount * 10. Grid purchasing is a great way to get a good entry, lower risk and also lower your average.
Middle Of Zone Purchase Amount In USDT: The Middle Of Zone is the strongest grid location within the Buy Zone. This is why we have a unique Purchase Amount for this Grid specifically. Please note you need to have 'Middle of Zone is a Grid' enabled for this Purchase Amount to be used.
Sell:
Only Sell if its Profit: There is a chance that during a dump, all your grid buys when through, and a few Purchase More Signals have appeared. You likely got a good entry. A Strong Buy may also appear before it starts to pump to the Sell Zone. The issue that may occur is your Average Purchase Price is greater than the 'Sell Some' price and/or the Grids in the Sell Zone and/or the Strong Sell Signal. When this happens, you can either take a loss and sell it, or you can hold on to it and wait for more purchase signals to therefore lower your average more so you can take profit at the next sell location. Please backtest this yourself within our YinYang Purchase Strategy on the pair and timeframe you are wanting to trade on. Please also note, that previous results will not always reflect future results. Please assess the risk yourself. Don't trade what you can't afford to lose. Sometimes it is better to strategically take a loss and continue on making profit than to stay in a bad trade for a long period of time.
Stack Grid Sells: Stacking Sell Grids is when the Close crosses multiple Sell Grids within the same bar. Should we still only sell the value of 1 Sell Grid OR stack the grid sells based on how many sell grids it went through.
Stop Loss Type: This is when the Close has pushed the Bottom of the Buy Grid More. Do we Stop Loss or Purchase More?? By default we recommend you stay true to the DCA part of this strategy by Purchasing More, but this is up to you.
Sell Some At: Where if selected should we 'Sell Some', this may be an important way to sell a little bit at a good time before the price may correct. Also, we don't want to sell too much incase it doesn't correct though, so its a 'Sell Some' location. Basis Line refers to our Moving Basis Line created from 2 Bollinger Bands and Percent refers to a Percent difference between the Lower Inner and Upper Inner bands.
Sell Some At Percent Amount: This refers to how much % between the Lower Inner and Upper Inner bands we should well at if we chose to 'Sell Some'.
Sell Some Min %: This refers to the Minimum amount between the Lower Inner band and Close that qualifies a 'Sell Some'. This acts as a failsafe so we don't 'Sell Some' for too little.
Sell % At Strong Sell Signal: How much do we sell at the 'Strong Sell' Signal? It may act as a strong location to sell, but likewise Grid Sells could be better.
Grid and Donchian Settings:
Donchian Channel Length: How far back are we looking back to determine our Donchian Channel.
Extra Outer Buy Width %: How much extra should we push the Outer Buy (Low) Width by?
Extra Inner Buy Width %: How much extra should we push the Inner Buy (Low) Width by?
Extra Inner Sell Width %: How much extra should we push the Inner Sell (High) Width by?
Extra Outer Sell Width %: How much extra should we push the Outer Sell (High) Width by?
Machine Learning:
Rationalized Source Type: Donchians usually use High/Low. What Source is our Rationalized Source using?
Machine Learning Type: Are we using a Simple ML Average, KNN Mean Average, KNN Exponential Average or None?
Machine Learning Length: How far back is our Machine Learning going to keep data for.
k-Nearest Neighbour (KNN) Length: How many k-Nearest Neighbours will we account for?
Fast ML Data Length: What is our Fast ML Length?? This is used with our Slow Length to create our KNN Distance.

Manual Buy&Sell Alerts [Starbots]This is a simple Strategy created to help you manually execute open or close orders via Alerts on Exchanges or Platforms.
More and more Exchanges and Platforms allow Tradingview Alert trading and sometimes we come to a problem that we can not sell an open order on the exchanges other way than signaling a sell or buy from Tradingview Alerts.
This is a tool to solve that problem as your are able to manually:
- send alert on limit targets (Long limit target, Short limit target, Take Profit limit target, Stop Loss limit target)
- send alert when new live bar opens on the market (simple way for closing your open trades on the Exchange/Platform - it will sell your open Long/Short order after new live bar is opened on the market)
Functions:
- 🕛Start
Define a start time for strategy to open/close trades
- 🕐Stop Trading after your Order is Closed
If you wish to stop opening/closing trades after your first position is successfully closed keep this turned on. If you wish to keep opening/closing trades indefinitely when the conditions are met keep this turned off.
🏁Buy&Sell By Limit Target
-Buy Price
-Take Profit
-Stop Loss
-🟢Enable Long Limit Orders
-🔴Enable Short Limit Orders
If you enable Enable Long or Short limit orders you will be able to execute trades when the price reaches your limit target lines.
Please Note that if you turn on Shorting, your Take Profit limit target must be 'UNDER' your buy price and Stop Loss limit target must be 'ABOVE' your buy price.
Type in your limit values manually or re-apply the strategy to your chart to select limit targets again with a mouse - you can also drag the limit lines to your wanted areas.
(I recommend using low time-frame charts - 30s, 1minute for fast executions)
🏁Buy&Sell After New Bar Opens
-🟢Open Long
-Close Long on a new Open Bar
-🔴Open Short
-Close Short on a new Open Bar
This is a simple way for closing your open trade on Exchanges. If you select Open Long/Short and then Close Long/Short on a new Open bar it will sell your open order and send sell alert when the new bar is opened on the market. Choose your time-frame and execute immediate sell order when a new bar is opened. You can select low 15s-30s-1minute charts to quickly get a sell alert.
Alerts
Long Message
Short Message
Exit Long Message
Exit Short Message
You can type in your webhook alert messages in this inputs. Write this code in 'Message' when creating Alert for strategy to send your Buy/Sell messages from above inputs.
{{strategy.order.alert_message}}
If you trade on exchanges and use different dynamic alert message to trade from Strategies, then you can just leave Alert inputs empty and write down your message alert in 'Message' box when creating new alert normally.

Smart Money Breakouts [ChartPrime]The " Smart Money Breakouts " indicator is designed to identify breakouts based on changes in character (CHOCH) or breaks of structure (BOS) patterns, facilitating automated trading with user-defined Take Profit (TP) level.
the indicator incorporates essential elements such as volume analysis and a data table to assist traders in optimizing their strategies.
🔸 Breakout Detection:
The indicator scans price movements for "Change in Character" (CHOCH) and "Break of Structure" (BOS) patterns, signaling potential breakout opportunities in the market.
🔸User-Defined TP :
Traders can customize the Take Profit (TP) through the indicator settings, with these levels dynamically calculated based on the Average True Range (ATR). This allows for precise risk management and profit targets that adapt to market volatility.
🔸 Volume Analysis and Trade Direction Specific Analysis:
The indicator includes a volume checker that provides valuable insights into the strength of the breakout, taking into account trade direction.
🔸If the volume label is red and the trade is long, it suggests a higher likelihood of hitting the Stop Loss (SL).
🔸If the volume label is green and the trade is long, it indicates a higher probability of hitting the Take Profit (TP).
🔸For short trades, a red volume label suggests a higher likelihood of hitting TP, while a green label suggests a higher likelihood of hitting SL.
🔸A yellow volume label suggests that the volume is inconclusive, neither favoring bullish nor bearish movements.
🔸Data Table:
The indicator features a data table that keeps track of the number of winning and losing trades for specific timeframes or configurations.
This table serves as a valuable tool for traders to analyze performance and discover optimal settings and timeframes.
The "Smart Money Breakouts" indicator provides traders with a comprehensive solution for breakout trading, combining technical analysis of changes in character and breaks of structure, volume insights, and performance tracking while dynamically adjusting TP and SL levels based on market volatility through the ATR.
Range Breakout Signals (Intrabar) [LuxAlgo]The Range Breakout Signals (Intrabar) is a novel indicator highlighting trending/ranging intrabar candles and providing signals when the price breaks the extremities of a ranging intrabar candles.
🔶 USAGE
The indicator highlights candles with trending intrabar prices, with uptrending candles being highlighted in green, and down-trending candles being highlighted in red.
This highlighting is affected by the selected intrabar timeframe, with a lower timeframe returning a more precise estimation of a candle trending/ranging state.
When a candle intrabar prices are ranging the body of the candle is hidden from the chart, and one upper & lower extremities are displayed, the upper extremity is equal to the candle high and the lower extremity to the candle low. Price breaking one of these extremities generates a signal.
The indicator comes with two modes, "Trend Following" and "Reversal", these modes determine the extremities that need to be broken in order to return a signal. The "Trend Following" mode as its name suggests will provide trend-following signals, while "Reversal" will aim at providing early signals suggesting a potential reversal.
🔶 DETAILS
To determine if intrabar prices are trending or ranging we calculate the r-squared of the intrabar data, if the r-squared is above 0.5 it would suggest that lower time frame prices are trending, else ranging.
This approach allows almost obtaining a "settings" free indicator, which is uncommon. The intrabar timeframe setting only controls the intrabar precision, with a timeframe significantly lower than the chart timeframe returning more intrabar data as a result, this however might not necessarily affect the displayed information by the indicator.
🔶 SETTINGS
Intrabar Timeframe: Timeframe used to retrieve the intrabar data within a chart candle. Must be lower than the user chart timeframe.
Auto: Select the intrabar timeframe automatically. This setting is more adapted to intraday charts.
Mode: Signal generation mode.
Filter Out Successive Signals: Allows removing successive signals of the same type, returning a more easily readable chart.
YinYang MomentumOverview:
YinYang Momentum is a Price, Volume and Momentum Oscillator. Its job is to help you see swings in momentum and the strength of it. It also creates signals (Blood Diamond (Bear) and Support Cross (Bull)) where these momentum swings may occur. YinYang Momentum features 3 Price and 3 Volume 'Mountains with Ice'. There are Predictive, Regular and Confirming Mountains. You have the ability to overlay them on top of each other which helps to decipher momentum swings. The Volume Mountains are very important for showing the strength behind the Price Mountains and their Signals. If you look, you'll notice, as the 'Ice' starts to curve into the 'Mountains' it signals a potential shift in Momentum. The green Mountain is the Predictive, the Blue is the Regular and the Purple is the Confirming. You'll also notice that the Predictive Mountains movements happen first and move much more drastically. When you notice the regular starts to follow suit, there is a potential for a momentum shift. Shortly after, a signal will occur if this shift is actually happening. You can also check the Confirming Mountain for more confirmation (however, leaving the Confirming Mountain active can be a little confusing and make it harder to read signals). YinYang Momentum also features Information Tables. These tables display how the Blood Diamonds and Support Cross' are fairing on different Timeframes. This way, you'll be able to see if it's in a Bullish or Bearish state on critical Time Frames no matter what Timeframe you're trading on.
Before we move onto the tutorial, let's discuss what each of these Mountains and Ice are and how they work. All of our Mountains and Ice are calculated using the same algorithm but with varying sources, lengths and multipliers. We are essentially calculating differences in movement and then sending those differences into an EMA for the Mountain Base and SMA for the mountain Ice. The values we use for the Predictive are much lower and therefore occur much quicker as they aren’t averaged out on longer lengths/time frames; this helps to make it more of a leading Indicator which may predict momentum changes. Our Regular is over a medium length and multipliers that result in a smooth but generally also gradual movement that helps reliability; this helps it act as more of an ‘in the now’ Indication of momentum changes. Our Confirming uses lengths and multipliers that are of a higher value and longer span; this makes it more difficult to use for determining entry / exit locations as it's more of a lagging indicator, but it helps to add confirmation as to whether the momentum change has occurred and wasn't a false signal.
Tutorial:
YinYang Momentum may look like a lot is going on.. And well that’s cause there is.. But that doesn’t mean it's confusing or hard to read once you know what you’re looking for!
To make this tutorial a little easier to understand, let's turn off a few settings and dissect this indicator one thing at a time. YinYang Momentum features Price and Volume mountains. Currently in the photo above we have 2 Price Mountains and 1 Volume Mountain turned on (this is how it's set by default and how we recommend using it), however there are 3 Mountains available for both Price and Volume:
Predictive
Regular
Confirming
We are going to deactivate everything so it's the Regular Price Mountain + Ice enabled.
Now that it is just the Regular Price Mountain and Ice it is much easier to teach and understand. As you can see there are two different colors on the mountain. The dark blue is the Mountain and the light blue is the Ice.
The Ice moves before the mountain does and when the momentum happens it is larger than it (below or above). When the momentum starts to change however, the Ice curves inside of the mountain. As you can see here, where the BUY signal (red cross) is, the Ice curves into the mountain; also where the SELL signal (red circle) is, the Ice curves into the mountain. The Ice curving into the mountain is a very important leading indication that momentum is changing and the Signals (crosses and diamonds) help solidify this momentum change.
The Index levels for YinYang Momentum is a little different than most oscillators that range from 0-100. Instead YinYang Momentum’s neutral level is 0 and it ranges from -100 to 100. For these reasons, the Viable Range for Buying is -40 to -70 and the Optimal Range for Buying is -70 to -100. For Selling, the Viable Range is 40 to 70 and the Optimal Range is 70 to 100.
If you look at the example above, you can see whenever it has been in the optimal range and the signal occurred, it may potentially be an amazing time to buy or sell. However, when it is within the Viable Range it can be hit or miss. The reason for this is because we are only looking at the Regular Price Mountain and Ice. Once we turn on the Predictive Price and Regular Volume we will have a much clearer idea as to what is noise and what is a true purchase signal. Why don’t we turn on Predictive Price Mountains and Ice so you can see what we’re talking about:
So there are 2 big things that changed when we added the predictive price mountains + ice.
We can see that where the orange circle is, is just noise, it isn’t a viable buy signal.
We can see that where the red circle is, is actually a better spot to sell than the previous marked white circle slightly to the right of it.
We will explain why both above are true, but first let's explain how we were able to deduce this information.
There are 5 rules when deciphering if the signal is a true signal or just noise.
You want the predictive mountain to be decently spaced out from the regular mountain. Refer to the example above how that should look. Remember it's predictive so with parabolic movements it will get quite spaced out. If the price went up but slowly, it generally won’t be as spaced and isn’t as strong of a signal predictor.
You want the Ice to be of a decent size and to curve in on both the Predictive and Regular Mountains. Both arrows (red and white circle arrows) are pointing to Ice that does just that. The Predictive mountain is of decent size and spaced out and the Ice curves in sharply on the Predictive, before curving in sharply on the Regular and then we get both Predictive and Regular Support Cross on the Same Bar.
When you get the Signals (Predictive and Regular) the amount of bars between them matters a lot! On the same Bar is ideal, however 1-2, max 3 bars between them is acceptable. Any more than 3 bars spacing and it's too risky of a signal because that means momentum change was happening but then stopped before picking back up. This doesn’t mean it can’t be a good signal, it just means it is much more risky and we don’t recommend it.
You don’t want Signal Clustering. You can see an example of this from the picture above. Signal Clustering is where signals are back to back over and over. During this time the momentum is in a consolidation phase and easily swaps back and forth between signals. These signals are not reliable and should not be traded on. We only want to act on clear momentum based signals.
Last but certainly not least, actually, the most important! Ensure that the Mountain + Ice for both the Predictive and Regular is at the bare minimum touching (preferably inside) the Viable Range. The Optimal range is best, but most mountains don’t make it that far. Viable Range is where you will make most of your trades from. Sometimes a great signal happens with all 5 of these rules but it is only touching the Viable Range right at 40 or -40. This CAN be okay, but is also much more risky than if it was at 50 to 60 or -50 to -60.
Based on the 5 rules mentioned, take a second and look back at the photo where we initially added the Predictive Price mountains and Ice, can you decipher why the orange circle is just noise, and can you see why the red circle is a better sell location than the white circle slightly to the right of it?
Let’s bring that photo back up now and let’s discuss this:
Let's start with the orange circle:
This orange circle, without the predictive, was hard to tell if it was a good location to buy or not, but the second we turned it on we could clearly see it was just noise.
The spacing between the Predictive mountains and the Regular is almost non-existent.
There was signal clustering shortly before this signal.
Remember, there doesn’t have to be many rules broken for a signal to be either too risky or not valid at all. The safest trades are ones where it meets the requirements of all 5 rules (6 once we talk about volume, but 5 price rules).
Now, let's discuss the red circle:
This red circle, although it could have been chosen with just the regular, was much more noticeable with the predictive added on top.
It has a perfect spacing between the Predictive and the Regular all the way to the peak.
The Ice is large and both curve in very nicely towards the mountains.
The signals are within 2 bars apart from each other.
There is no signal clustering.
The Predictive is within the Viable Range and the Regular is just touching it.
For these reasons, the red circle actually would have been where you sold and not the white circle beside it.
This pretty much covers the Price Mountains, but wait! The most important Cherry on Top to your decision making process is coming next!
We have just enabled our Regular Volume Mountains and Ice (which are the black mountains + ice). As you can see, we have circled what we call the ‘Perfect Combo’. This Perfect combo is when you have all 5 Price rules met COMBINED with a high volume mountain. The Volume Mountain and Ice act as strength. They aren’t biased towards bulls or bears, they simply show strength to whatever signal is present with it.
For example, if all 5 rules are met with Price on a Blood Diamond (Bear) Signal and there is a High Volume Mountain then this is also a ‘Perfect Combo’. That Blood Diamond signal will potentially have great strength behind it. The Viable and Optimal Ranges don’t apply to volume mountains. Any volume mountain, even close to the Viable Range, is considered to be a very high mountain. High volume is when the mountain is above 0 and low volume is when it's below 0. Any signal with low volume has less of a chance of being correct, regardless of whether it abides by all 5 price rules.
You can see here that the 5 Price rules are achieved but the volume mountain is low. It is at -25. Since the 5 Price rules are right, there is still a decent amount of accuracy to this signal and the price did plummet after, but not nearly as much as it would have if the volume mountain was high with it.
We have turned our Confirming Price Mountain on here so you can get an idea of what it looks like and how it’s used. If you refer to the Support Crosses and Blood Diamonds circled in white, you’ll see that although they both received their signals on the Predictive and Regular, neither of them received it on the Confirming. This shows that these signals lost momentum shortly after. However if you look at both the red and green circles, you’ll see that they both received their confirming signals and that it helped give those signals momentum. The Confirming Price Mountain is meant to help confirm if the momentum change is still on track and the max 3 bars from the regular signal rule still applies to it. However its height within the viable and optimal range is important, just not as relevant
Before we move on to our Information Tables we want to take a second just to discuss our Volume Mountains and Ice. We haven’t had a chance yet to discuss the Predictive or Confirming Volume. When it comes to our Volume Mountains + Ice, we don’t recommend having more than 1 on at a time. The reason we have included the Predictive and Confirming is in case you find they suit your Trading Style best, not necessarily to be used the same way the Price Mountains and Ice are. The main reason for this is due to the fact that the Volume Mountains are much smaller and when overlaid on top of each other can make a confusing blur that is hard to decipher.
In this example above we have enabled both Predictive and Regular Volume just so you can understand what we are talking about. The two together can be rather confusing and actually interfere with your decision making process. For this reason, we highly recommend finding the Volume Mountain that suits your trading style best and solely sticking to that.
Our Predictive Volume Mountains and Ice may help sense volume changes before they’ve even happened. This can be very useful if your Trading Style revolves around heavy volume changes.
Our Confirming Volume Mountains and Ice are much slower and smaller, but they help show the movement of volume that has occurred already. This can be used to help see the movement of volume without fearing it may or may not happen.
Our Information Tables are there to show you valuable information on whether it is in a state of Support Cross or Blood Diamond on 6 different Time Frames at the same time. The % it shows you displays how much of a price change has occurred since that signal has happened. It is important to note, if for instance you see it is in a state of Support Cross but the % is negative, this generally means it is going to switch to Blood Diamond soon and vice versa. Therefore if you are in a trade, especially on a lower Time Frame and you are watching the 1 Day or a higher Time Frame and notice that the % is getting less and less, it may be a good time to get out.
We will conclude our Tutorial here. If you have any Questions, Concerns, Suggestions or Comments please don’t hesitate to contact us.
Settings:
1. Show Predictive to Confirmed Trendline:
The Predictive to Confirmed Trendline is very useful for seeing when the predictive (Support Cross or Blood Diamond) has hit the confirmed (It’s a strong confirmation that the trend may be shifting). This trendline also features a Moving Average which helps give you a solid marker for when the Regular / Predictive mountains cross under or over it that a momentum swing may occur. Somewhat like when the RSI crosses above/below its Moving Average it dictates momentum change, that is likewise how to interpret when it happens with the mountains and this trendline.
2. Show Price Ice and Mountains based on:
The Price Ice and Mountains are very important when it comes to deciphering signal strength. For example, When the mountains are very low (regular and predictive) and are between the 2 red line (undervalued) or even possibly below the bottom red line, and the Ice on the mountains starts to curve into the mountains and then the Predictive and Regular Support Cross occur; this is a very strong Bullish Signal. But wait, that's not all, the cherry on top is when the volume mountain (black) is ALSO high while this occurs; the Volume Mountain adds Strength to the signal. When the volume mountain is high too during this ‘Perfect Combo’ this may potentially lead to very bullish price movement occurring soon. Here is an overview of each mountain:
2.1. Predictive: Are the least reliable, but they move first and nothing will move without the predictive moving first, and getting you ready.
2.2. Regular: Are the most accurate, they don't signify strength on its own, but they sure show some momentum.
2.3. Confirming: Are slightly behind when it comes to displaying data, and therefore shouldn't be used for entry / exit, but rather to show if the trend movement has truly been confirmed or not.
When the Ice starts to curve into the Mountain, (either upward or below) it signifies possible momentum change. There are Crosses (Bull), and Diamonds (Bear) to show when they've crossed. Cross' and Diamonds balance each other out and therefore there can never be more than 1 in a row (of the same type). When the Ice and Mountain size is very large (between 40 and 70), and the predictive Ice starts to curve into its mountain, and then the predictive curves into the Regular, and the Regular Ice is curving into its Mountain, then it may have some strong weight behind that signal. IMPORTANT: refer to Volume tooltip below for how to increase the signal strength even more.
3. Show Volume Ice and Mountains based on:
The Volume Ice and Mountains are for giving strength to the Price's signals and Size. When there is the perfect combo (described above) AND the Volume Ice + Mountain is high, then there may be a lot of strength to that Price signals (whether it is Cross (Bull), or Diamond (Bear)).
IMPORTANT: High volume mountains, unlike Price, don't mean good or bad. Volume shows strength to the Price, and therefore if there are high Volume mountains during a Diamond (Bearish), then there may be a lot of strength to that signal and vice versa.
4. Show Information Tables:
Information tables are used to display 6 different Time Frames and whether or not each time frame is in a state of Blood Diamond (red) or Support Cross (green). They also show how much % in price has changed since the current signal happened. These are very useful for seeing how the price is fairing on different Time Frames without having to constantly change your timeframe. For instance, maybe you base your entry off the 1 day time frame but then you swing trade on the 15 minute. Well, after you’ve confirmed your entry position and are sitting on the 15 minute, you can stay on the 15 minute and see how it is fairing on the 1 day, 5 minute or whatever time frame you choose. This way you aren’t distracted from the trade at hand. All of these Time Frames can be adjusted in the Settings (GUI) to whatever resolution you wish.
5. Res1 / Res2/ Res3 / Res4 / Res5 / Res6:
These represent the different resolutions (Time Frames) being used in your information tables and can be modified to display whatever resolution works best for your trading style. By default they are:
Res1: Current Timeframe
Res2: 15 Minute
Res3: 1 Hour
Res4: 4 Hour
Res5: 1 Day
Res6: 1 Week
Backup Res (not changeable): 5 Minute (this is only used if your Current Timeframe in Res1 is a duplicate of one of the other resolutions)
HAPPY TRADING!
YinYang VolumeOverview:
YinYang Volume is an Advanced Volume Indicator. Regular Volume can be deceiving. It can be hard to tell how much of the Volume bar is Buy vs Sell volume, especially since the bar is green or red simply based on if it closes at a greater price than it opened. With YinYang Volume you'll be able to see how much Buy AND Sell Volume there is on each bar. Being able to see both is very useful, but the cherry on top is the Buy and Sell Moving Average Lines. These lines (White is Buy and Orange is Sell) can show who is currently winning the fight, Bulls or Bears. When the lines cross it's a shift in momentum and when combined with other technical analysis you can better understand the direction the market is moving and make an informed and educated trading decision. YinYang Volume also has Information tables, these tables display the Buy vs Sell volume on different Timeframes. This way even if you're trading on a Low Timeframe (like 15 minutes) you can see how the Buy vs Sell volume is fairing on other Timeframes.
Tutorial:
Unlike most volume indicators, including standard volume, we can see both Buy AND Sell volume for each bar. You may be wondering, well what’s the importance of this? The answer is EVERYTHING! Volume is one of the most important indicators when it comes to trading. Nothing moves without volume. However, with standard volume, the bar is either red or green simply based on if it closes greater than it opens. Now, that is pretty silly if you ask us. Let’s get into depth as to why seeing both Buy and Sell volume is important, and examples for how you can make trades with it:
In this example above, we have 2 green bars and they both have high levels of volume. This bar on the right however, has more volume than the one on the left. The issue here is, the bar on the right has MORE Sell volume than it even does have Buy volume; meanwhile the bar on the left has way more buy volume than the bar on the right with little sell volume. Without separating them and by simply looking at the price bar and regular volume bar, we would never be able to deduce this. It is crucial to understand and see how much of each volume there is as it plays a huge role in the price movements.
The white line represents the Buy Volume Moving Average and the orange line represents the Sell Volume Moving Average. These moving averages are very useful as when they cross they represent strong Buy and Sell Signals.
We’ve enabled signals which plot circles onto the MA’s to display when they’ve crossed. The white circle represents a Buy Signal and the Orange circle represents a Sell Signal. These signals are very strong, but there is a catch that comes with it. The bar right after the signal has the highest chance of a reversal so it isn’t always advised to make the trade until confirmed that the reversal didn’t happen on the following bar. If you have enough data based on other technical analysis to know the first signal is true, then use it as a way to solidify the fact that it is a good entry/exit location.
You can change the length of which the MA’s are smoothed out over. For instance, in the previous examples and by default the length is 14. However, if we are to change it to 50 for instance, it makes them a longer lasting MA that has much fewer crosses. This can be useful based on your trading style and if you prefer to stay in trades for quite awhile. As you can see, all signals with the 50 length are quite accurate and would have produced profitable trades, likely more so than at 14, but since it moves slower there's fewer signals to trade on.
Our Information Tables are there to show you the amount of Buy vs Sell %’s on 6 different Time Frames at the same time. It can be very useful to know how people are feeling on different Time Frames without you having to change your own. This way you can stay on say the 15 minute Time Frame locked in your trade and can see if the momentum of your long trade is cooling down based on higher Time Frames Buy vs Sell volume %’s.
For example, let's say you got an alert from YinYang Volume for Buy Signal on the 1 Day. You then entered a trade which you deemed a good location on the 15 minutes (after doing your own technical analysis on the 15 minute too). The Buy vs Sell Volume %’s on the 1 Day was 55% Buy and 45% Sell when you entered the trade. You are still waiting for exit confirmation on the 15 minute but you notice the Buy vs Sell Volume % on the 1 Day goes down to 52% Buy and 48% Sell. You can see the momentum changing. Even though you haven’t received confirmation for exit on the 15 minute, it may still be a good time to get out as momentum is clearly changing on the 1 Day.
We will conclude this Tutorial here. We hope you’ll get some good use out of our Volume Indicator and its ability to display unique Volume Data. If you have any Questions, Comments, Suggestions or Concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
Settings:
1. Show Signals:
Toggling this setting shows when the Buy and Sell Volume MA’s cross each other. It produces a white circle when the Buy Volume Crosses over the Sell Volume (BULLISH) and an orange circle when the Sell Volume Crosses over the Buy Volume (BEARISH).
2. Length:
How far back should we average the Buy and Sell Volume Moving Averages? 14 is default has been tested and proven to work well, however you can change it if there is a different value that suits your trading style better.
3. Type:
How is the Moving Averages calculated? VWMA (Volume Weighted Moving Average) is the default as it has been tested and worked best; afterall, we are calculating volume and therefore should use a volume weighted MA calculation. However, you can change it as your options are:
VWMA, EMA and SMA
4. Information Tables:
4.1. Show Information Tables:
Our Information tables display 6 different resolutions so you can see how much Buy vs Sell volume there is as a % in multiple different Time Frames without having to change your Time Frame.
4.2. Strength:
The Buy / Sell Volume %’s displayed within your Information Tables are based on Moving Averages. The length this moving average uses is based on the Strength you select. The strengths aren’t as simple as just a length amount but are a calculation involving multiple different lengths and averages. However, the stronger the strength, generally the farther the lookback length is as an average. Your options for strength are:
Unbreakable
Very Strong
Strong
Average
Weak
Very Weak
Glass
We recommend ‘Average’ Strength, however if you find you want to see the %’s change more or less frequently you can adjust to your trading style
4.3. Res1 / Res2/ Res3 / Res4 / Res5 / Res6:
These represent the different resolutions (Time Frames) being used in your information tables and can be modified to display whatever resolution works best for your trading style. By default they are:
Res1: Current Timeframe
Res2: 15 Minute
Res3: 1 Hour
Res4: 4 Hour
Res5: 1 Day
Res6: 1 Week
Backup Res (not changeable): 5 Minute (this is only used if your Current Timeframe in Res1 is a duplicate of one of the other resolutions)
