Logical Trading Indicator V.1Features of the Logical Trading Indicator V.1
ATR-Based Trailing Stop Loss
The Logical Trading Indicator V.1 utilizes the Average True Range (ATR) to implement a dynamic trailing stop loss. You can customize the sensitivity of your alerts by adjusting the ATR Multiple and ATR Period settings.
Higher ATR Multiple values create wider stops, while lower values result in tighter stops. This feature ensures that your trades are protected against adverse price movements. For best practice, use higher values on higher timeframes and lower values on lower term timeframes.
Bollinger Bands
The Logical Trading Indicator V.1 includes Bollinger Bands, which can be customized to use either a Simple Moving Average (SMA) or an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) as the basis.
You can adjust the length and standard deviation multiplier of the Bollinger Bands to fine-tune your strategy. The color of the basis line changes to green when price is above and red when price is below the line to represent the trend.
The bands show a range vs a single band that also represents when the price is in overbought and oversold ranges similar to an RSI. These bands also control the take profit signals.
You also have the ability to change the band colors as well as toggle them off, which only affects the view, they are still active which will still fire the take profit signals.
Momentum Indicator
Our indicator offers a momentum filter option that highlights market momentum directly on the candlesticks, identifying periods of bullish, bearish, or consolidation phases. You can enable or disable this filter as needed, providing valuable insights into market conditions.
By default, you will see the candlestick colors represent the momentum direction as green or red, and consolidation periods as white, but the filter on the BUY and SELL signals is not active. The view options and filter can be toggled on and off in the settings.
Buy and Sell Signals
The Logical Trading Indicator V.1 generates buy and sell signals based on a combination of ATR-based filtering, Bollinger Band basis crossover, and optional momentum conditions if selected in the settings. These signals help you make informed decisions about when to enter or exit a trade. You can also enable a consolidation filter to stay out of trades during tight ranges.
Basically a BUY signal fires when the price closes above the basis line, and the price meets or exceeds the ATR multiple from the previous candle length, which is also editable in the settings.
If the momentum filter is engaged, it will not fire BUY signals when in consolidation periods. It works just the opposite for SELL signals.
Take Profit Signals
We've integrated a Take Profit feature that helps you identify points to exit your trades with profits. The indicator marks Long Take Profit when prices close below the upper zone line of the Bollinger Bands after the previous candle closes inside the band, suggesting an optimal point to exit a long trade or consider a short position.
Conversely, Short Take Profit signals appear when prices close above the lower zone after the previous candle closes inside of it, indicating the right time to exit a short trade or contemplate a long position.
Alerts for Informed Trading
The Logical Trading Indicator V.1 comes equipped with alert conditions for buy signals, sell signals, take profit points, and more. Receive real-time notifications to your preferred devices or platforms to stay updated on market movements and trading opportunities.
Williams Vix Fix [CC]The Vix Fix indicator was created by Larry Williams and is one of my giant backlog of unpublished scripts which I'm going to start publishing more of. This indicator is a great synthetic version of the classic Volatility Index and can be useful in combination with other indicators to determine when to enter or exit a trade due to the current volatility. The indicator creates this synthetic version of the Volatility Index by a fairly simple formula that subtracts the current low from the highest close over the last 22 days and then divides that result by the same highest close and multiplies by 100 to turn it into a percentage. The 22-day length is used by default since there is a max of 22 trading days in a month but this formula works well for any other timeframe. By itself, this indicator doesn't generate buy or sell signals but generally speaking, you will want to enter or exit a trade when the Vix fix indicator amount spikes and you get an entry or exit signal from another indicator of your choice. Keep in mind that the colors I'm using for this indicator are only a general idea of when volatility is high enough to enter or exit a trade so green colors mean higher volatility and red colors mean low volatility. This is one of the few indicators I have written that don't recommend to buy or sell when the colors change.
This was a custom request from one of my followers so please let me know if you guys have any other script requests you want to see!
ICT HTF Candles [Source Code] (fadi)Plotting a configurable higher timeframe on current chart's timeframe helps visualize price movement without changing timeframes. It also plots FVG and Volume Imbalance on the higher timeframe for easier visualization.
With ICT concepts, we usually wait for HTF break of structure and then find an entry on a lower timeframe. With this indicator, we can set it to the HTF and watch the develop of price action until the break of structure happens. We can then take an entry on the current timeframe.

Narrow Range StrategyNarrow Range Strategy :
INTRODUCTION :
This strategy is based on the Narrow Range Day concept, implying that low volatility will generate higher volatility in the days ahead. The strategy sends us buy and sell signals with well-defined profit targets. It's a medium/long-term strategy. There's also a money management method that allows us to reinvest part of the profits or reduce the size of orders in the event of substantial losses.
NARROW RANGE (NR) DAY :
A Narrow Range Day is a day in which price variations are included in those of a specific day some time before. The high and low of this specific day form the "reference range". In general, we compare these variations with those of 4 or 7 days ago. The mathematical formula for finding an NR4 is :
If low > low(4) and high < high(4) :
nr = true
This implies that the current low is greater than the low of 4 days ago, and the current high is smaller than the high of 4 days ago. So today's volatility is lower than that of 4 days ago, and may be a sign of high volatility to come.
PARAMETERS :
Narrow Range Length : Corresponds to the number of candles back to compare current volatility. The default is 4, allowing comparison of current volatility with that of 4 candles ago.
Stop Loss : Percentage of the reference range on which to set an exit order to limit losses. The minimum value is 0.001, while the maximum is 1. The default value is 0.35.
Fixed Ratio : This is the amount of gain or loss at which the order quantity is changed. The default is 400, which means that for each $400 gain or loss, the order size is increased or decreased by an amount chosen by the user.
Increasing Order Amount : This is the amount to be added to or subtracted from orders when the fixed ratio is reached. The default is $200, which means that for every $400 gain, $200 is reinvested in the strategy. On the other hand, for every $400 loss, the order size is reduced by $200.
Initial capital : $1000
Fees : Interactive Broker fees apply to this strategy. They are set at 0.18% of the trade value.
Slippage : 3 ticks or $0.03 per trade. Corresponds to the latency time between the moment the signal is received and the moment the order is executed by the broker.
Important : A bot was used to test NR4 and NR7 with all possible Stop Losses in order to find out which combination generates the highest return on BITSTAMP:ETHUSD while limiting the drawdown. This strategy is the most optimal with an NR4 and a SL of 35% of the reference range size in 5D timeframe.
BUY AND SHORT SIGNALS :
When an NR is spotted, we create two stop orders on the high and low of the reference range. As soon as there's a breakout from this reference range (shown in blue on the chart), we open a position. We're LONG if there's a breakout on the high and SHORT if there's a breakout on the low. Executing a stop order cancels the second stop order.
RISK MANAGEMENT :
This strategy is subject to losses. We manage our risk with Stop Losses. The user is free to enter a SL as a percentage of the reference range. The maximum amount risked per trade therefore depends on the size of the range. The larger the range, the greater the risk. That's why we have set a maximum Stop Loss to 10% to limiting risks per trade.
The special feature of this strategy is that it targets a precise profit objective. This corresponds to the size of the reference range at the top of the high if you're LONG, or at the bottom of the low if you're short. In the same way, the larger the reference range, the greater the potential profits.
The risk reward remains the same for all trades and amounts to : 100/35 = 2.86. If the reference range is too high, we have set a SL to 10% of the trade value to limit losses. In that case, the risk reward is less than 2.86.
MONEY MANAGEMENT :
The fixed ratio method was used to manage our gains and losses. For each gain of an amount equal to the value of the fixed ratio, we increase the order size by a value defined by the user in the "Increasing order amount" parameter. Similarly, each time we lose an amount equal to the value of the fixed ratio, we decrease the order size by the same user-defined value. This strategy increases both performance and drawdown.
NOTE :
Please note that the strategy is backtested from 2017-01-01. As the timeframe is 5D, this strategy is a medium/long-term strategy. That's why only 37 trades were closed. Be careful, as the test sample is small and performance may not necessarily reflect what may happen in the future.
Enjoy the strategy and don't forget to take the trade :)

Trend Bar Dow Theory V-1.0The indicator is designed to signal the presence of a trend bar with reduced profit-taking the following day. Below, I explain the logic that I have defined for this first version.
The guidelines I provided are as follows: We identify a trend bar, if it sets a market change, between opening and closing, equal to or greater than 50 pips . This first guideline is used to find a day with good liquidity , which usually leads to a trend bar.
If the first guideline is met, the indicator should change the bar color to white . This way, we can proceed to the second guideline, to detect the presence of reduced profit-taking.
The second guideline should indicate the presence of reduced profit-taking, as explained by Dow Theory, to find a trend context with potential to exploit. Therefore, the second guideline involves coloring the bars near the trend bars in grey, if they have a range equal to or less than 30 pips.
Dow Theory states that a market in trend measures reduced profit-taking, within 33%, up to a maximum of 50% compared to the previous trend bar, but I have not yet been able to make Pine Script calculate the percentage value. If you have any suggestions, I would be grateful.

Bull Flag DetectionThe FuturesGod bull flag indicator aims to identify the occurrence of bull flags.
Bull flags are a popular trading pattern that allows users to gauge long entries into a given market. Flags consist of a pole that is followed by either a downward or sideways consolidation period.
This script can be used on any market but was intended for futures (NQ, ES) trading on the intraday timeframe.
The script does the following:
1. Identifies the occurrence of a flag pole. This is based on a lookback period and percentage threshold decided by the user.
2. Marks the consolidation area after the pole occurrence using swing highs and swing lows.
3. Visually the above is represented by a shaded green area.
4. When a pole is detected, it is marked by a downward off-white triangle. Note that if the percentage threshold is reached several times on the same upward climb, the script will continue to identify points where the threshold for pole detection is met.
5. Also visualized are the 20, 50 and 200 period exponential moving averages. The area between the 20 and 50 EMAs are shaded to provide traders a visual of a possible support area.

Pullback and Throwback Candle [TrendX_]Pullback and Throwback candles can help traders determine the the potential reversal points
USAGE
The indicator identifies pullback and throwback in overbought and oversold zones by measuring the distance between the price and its relative strength index.
A Pullback is an expected rebound in a downtrend (painted in green area), while a Throwback is a bounceback from an uptrend (painted in red area).
The strategy is useful for valuing reversal points. Accordingly, it can also be helpful for traders to use alongside other Technical Analysis indicators.
DISCLAIMER
This indicator is not financial advice, it can only help traders make better decisions.
There are many factors and uncertainties that can affect the outcome of any endeavor, and no one can guarantee or predict with certainty what will occur.

[dharmatech] : Toggle Monthly CandlesThis indicator allows you to only show specific monthly candles.
It's designed to be used with the monthly interval.
The settings allow you specify which months to show.
By default, it only shows January.
In this example screenshot, Nov and Dec are shown.
Top/Bottom DetectorThis indicator tries to detect tops and bottoms based on time and price. It counts candles using a simple criteria in both bullish and bearish directions. The count is added by 1 for each consecutive candle that matches this criteria. When a candle doesn't match the criteria the count is broken and will start over. A top or bottom is detected when the count reaches its maximum and is plotted on the chart as a red arrow (top) or a green arrow (bottom). Be aware that a top or bottom can be extended for several time periods and is broken only when the criteria no longer matches. Depending on your trading strategy, it can be advised to wait for the top/bottom to be broken before entering the trade.
How it works
The bullish count compares current candle with a candle X periods in the past. If the current candle price is higher than the past candle it matches and the count is added by 1. The bearish count works in the same way as the bullish count except that it matches if the current candle price is lower than the past candle instead of higher. The default parameters is to compare current candle close with the candle close 4 periods in the past, using a count of 9 as the maximum that detects a top or bottom. These values can all be adjusted in the settings.
Multi Timeframe Table
The multi timeframe table is visible by default in the top right corner. It gives some insight in what the count is for the current ticker in different timeframes. A bullish count will color the cell green and a bearish count red. Note that only timeframes higher or equal to what is used on the chart can be displayed. Any lower timeframes in the table will be grayed out and show the text N/A.
Alerts
Alerts can be setup when a bottom or top is detected. Using the "Any alert() function call" condition will alert both bottoms and tops.
Consecutive Higher/Lower ClosingsThe Consecutive Higher/Lower Closings indicator is a powerful tool designed to assist traders in identifying potential buy and sell signals based on consecutive higher or lower closing prices. This indicator provides users with the flexibility to specify the number of consecutive higher or lower closings required to trigger a signal, allowing for a customizable trading strategy.
Key Features:
Customizable Parameters: Users can define the number of consecutive higher and lower closings needed to generate buy and sell signals, providing a tailored approach to trading.
Clear Buy and Sell Signals: The indicator plots clear buy and sell signals directly on the chart, making it easy for traders to identify potential entry and exit points.
Usage:
Consecutive Higher Closings (Buy Signal): When the current closing price is higher than the previous closing price for the specified number of consecutive periods (as defined by the user), a buy signal will be generated.
Consecutive Lower Closings (Sell Signal): When the current closing price is lower than the previous closing price for the specified number of consecutive periods (as defined by the user), a sell signal will be generated.
How to Use:
Apply the Consecutive Higher/Lower Closings indicator to your chart.
Adjust the input parameters, consecutiveHigherClosings and consecutiveLowerClosings, to match your preferred trading strategy. These parameters determine the number of consecutive higher and lower closings needed to trigger signals.
Interpret the buy and sell signals generated by the indicator. When a buy signal is displayed (green triangle up), it suggests a potential entry point. Conversely, a sell signal (red triangle down) indicates a potential exit point.
Important Note:
This indicator is designed to assist traders in making informed decisions, but it should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and risk management strategies for a comprehensive trading approach.
Kindly be aware that this strategy is most effective with Monster stocks with smooth price action, particularly when analyzing in weekly and/or daily timeframe.
Disclaimer:
Trading involves risk, and past performance does not guarantee future results. Always conduct thorough research and consider your risk tolerance before making trading decisions.
The Ultimate Buy and Sell IndicatorThis indicator should be used in conjunction with a solid risk management strategy that does not over-leverage positions and uses stop-losses. You can not rely 100% on the signals provided by this indicator (or any other for that matter).
With that said, this indicator can provide some excellent signals.
It has been designed with a large number of customization options intended for advanced traders, but you do not HAVE to be an advanced user to simply use the indicator. I have tried to make it easy to understand, and this section will provide you with a better understanding of how to use it.
NOTE:
While NOT REQUIRED, I would recommend also finding my indicator called, "Ultimate RSI", which is designed to work together with this indicator (visually). They both contain the same settings and allow you to visualize changes made in this indicator that can not be displayed on the main chart.
This indicator creates it's own candles(bars), so you have to go into your main settings and turn off the "body, border and wick" color settings. Using a dark background is also recommended.
How does it work?
The indicator mainly relies on the RSI indicator with Bollinger Bands for signals. (Though not entirely)
First, there are something that I call "Watch Signals", which are various Bollinger Band crossing events. This could be the price crossing Bollinger Bands or the RSI crossing Bollinger Bands.
There are separate watch signals for buys and sells. Buy watch signals are colored orange to match the BUY signal candle color and Fuchsia (kind of a bright purple) to match SELL signal candles.
In order for most buy or sell signals to be created, there must first be a watch signal. There is a lookback period (or length) for watch signals to be used, and after that many candles (bars) have passed, they will be ignored. You can set a length to look back as well as a time to wait before creating any.
What this means is that if there has previously been (for instance) a sell signal. You can tell it to wait 10 bars before creating any buy watch signals. You can then also tell it that it should look back 10 bars from the current one in order to find any buy watch signals. This means that if you had it set up that way 10 to wait and 10 to validate, it would start allowing buy watch signals 11 bars after a sell, and then once you hit 20 bars, it will start leaving a gap (invisible to you) as the 10 bar lookback period starts moving forward with each new bar. This is useful in order to keep signals more spaced apart as some bad signals come quickly after another one.
Example: You may get a sell signal where the Bollinger bands are tight, then the price easily drops down into the lower band creating a buy watch signal, then you get a "fake" or short pump up and it says buy, but then drops dramatically afterwards. The wait period can ensure that the sell stays in effect longer before a buy is considered by blocking any buy watch signals for a period of time.
After you get a watch signal, the system then looks for various other things to happen to create buy or sell signals. This could be the RSI crossing the (slow) RSI Basis line (from its Bollinger bands), it could be the price crossing its basis line, it could be MACD crosses, it could even be RSI crossing certain levels. All of these are options. If you like the MACD strategy and want it to give you buy and sell signals from just MACD crosses, simply select that option for signals.
It is also able to use the first of any of the options that takes place.
I included an option to force alternating buy and sell signals, rather than showing groups of, or subsequent buy, buy, buy signals, for instance.
Moving on....
You can change the moving average that is used to calculate the RSI. The standard moving average for RSI is the RMA (aka SWMA). Changes to this can dramatically change your signals. You also have the option to change the moving average type used in the Bollinger bands calculation. You can change the length of these as well. The same goes for the Bollinger bands over the Price chart. I added an ATR option for the RSI Bollinger bands to play with, as well. You are able to adjust the standard deviation (multiplier) of the bands as well, which will of course affect the signals.
The ways you can play with signals are nearly infinite, so have fun figuring it out.
The indicator allows for moving averages to be shown as well, with a variety of types to choose from. The standard numbers are 5, 10, 20, 50, 100 and 200, with the addition of a custom moving average of your choice. You can also change the color of this one. You can choose to show them all or any of them you want to show, in any combination, although the TYPE of moving average (SMA, EMA, WMA, etc.) will apply to all of them.
You may also notice the Bollinger Bands over the Price are colored, and become more or less transparent.
The color is derived from the trend of the RSI or the RSI basis (your choice). It looks back at the value however many bars you want and compares the values and that's how it determines if it is trending up or down. Since RSI is a directional momentum indicator, this can be quite useful. If you see the bands are getting darker, this will explain why.
The indicator has a lookback period for determining the widest the bands (which measure volatility) have been over that period of time. This is the baseline. It then will make the bands disappear (by making them more transparent) if the volatility is low. This indicates that a change in volatility is coming and that price isn't really changing much compared to the past (default 500) bars. If they become bright, this is because price has started trending in a direction and volatility is increasing.
I should also note that the candles are colored based on RSI levels.
If you use the Ultimate Companion indicator, you will be able to see the RSI levels (zones) that the colors are based on. As RSI moves into a new range, the candle color will change.
I have created a yellow zone where the candles turn yellow. This is when RSI is between (default) 45 and 55, indicating there is basically no momentum and price is going sideways. This is a good place to get trapped in bad trades, and there is a Yellow RSI Filter to block signals in this area to keep you from entering bad trades.
Green candles indicate values over 55 (getting brighter as RSI rises) and red candles are RSI values under 45 (getting brighter as RSI values get lower). If you see white, this means RSI is either over 80 or under 20. A sharp reversal is almost always imminent at this stage.
When we talk about Buy and Sell Signals, they draw a green or red triangle and it literally says BUY or SELL. There is an option to color the background for added visibility. These signals do not "repaint", what this means is that they can be late. To account for this, I have included a background color that will flash as a warning that a buy or sell could be imminent, although it may fail to break through and set a buy or sell signal. This is simply an advanced warning. The reason is that sometimes a candle may be very large and you won't be told to buy or sell during the candle until the move is completely over and now you're getting in on the next one. That's not a great feeling, so I made it repaint the background color and not repaint the completed signal. You get the best of both worlds.
This indicator also uses complex logic to handle things.
When there is a buy signal, it enters into a state of having been bought, or a "bought state". The same for sells. If Force alternating signals is off, you could have more than one buy in a bought state, or more than one sell in a sell state. There is an option to color the background green during the full duration of a bought state, or red during the full duration of a sold state.
I have added divergence.
This shows that the lows or highs of RSI and PRICE are different. If RSI is making higher highs but the price is not, then the price is likely to follow this bullish divergence, if the opposite happens, it's bearish. It will draw a line on the chart connecting the highs and lows and call it bearish or bullish. You can adjust this as well.
I have an RSI High/Low filter. If the RSI basis (or average) is very high or low, you can block signal from this area since the price is likely to continue in that direction before actually reversing.
You can change the settings of the MACD if you choose to use it for signals, and if you want to see it, you'll have to run that indicator below the chart and match the settings to see what is going on, just like the RSI.
Going back to Watch Signals. You can also choose to require more than one watch signal if you choose. You can skip watch signals, so it will ignore the first or second one, whatever you want to do. You can color the background to show you where watch signals have been skipped.
Regarding the wait period for creating watch signals after a sell or after a buy, you can also color the background to see where these were blocked by the wait period.
Lastly you can choose which type of watch signals to use, or keep them from being shown on the chart. This allows you to study the history of how the asset you are trading behaves and customize the behavior of signals based on your study of it.
Everything in the settings area has tooltips, which will explain what that thing does to help you along this journey.
I hope this indicator (and perhaps Ultimate RSI alongside this) will help you take your trading to the next level.
Volume SentimentIn 1994 Tushar Chande and Stanley Kroll published a epic book of modern trading indicators called "The New Technical Trader". I highly recommend it. Two indicators that stood out was the Market Thrust and Thrust Oscillator. They suggested these as alternatives to the Arms Index. Rather than using the Advancing Stocks and their associated volume, I applied their logic to individual bars.
Bar Sentiment can be defined and the difference between the low and the close relative to the bar width. Smaller values are bearish and larger one are bullish. A bullish candle would close above its mid-point. Conversely, a close below the candle mid-point is considered bearish.
With that, this script sums the bullish or bearish (as defined above) volume over a user defined number of bars. It gives a unique indication of the volume compared to typical volume indicators. It also gives the user the option to set a "High Volume" alert when the total volume is greater than the moving average. This is helpful for identify increasing activity in your security.
Enjoy and happy trading!
WP_MMThis indicator is set with 3 EMA's:
- EMA9
- EMA20
- EMA50
When EMA9 is up to EMA20 and:
- the distance between them is up to 30 ticks
- both is directional ( diff between current ema and last ema is up to 15 ticks )
the range will be painted in green. And if the EMA 9 is below EMA20 and
the same rules above is true, rthe range will be painted in red
Strengh Candle:
- Candle without huge shadow
- If is bearish minium down shadow
- if is bullish minimum up shadow

TICK Extreme Zones Indicator OverlayOverview :
The TICK Extreme Zones Indicator Overlay is designed to gauge the overall market trend using the TICK index. By determining the number of bullish (values above 0) and bearish (values below 0) TICK closes within a user-specified lookback period, it provides an insight into the prevailing market sentiment. This insight can be beneficial for traders looking to identify potential entry or exit points based on the market's strength or weakness.
Key Features :
Lookback Period : This is a user-defined time frame in minutes. The indicator counts the number of bullish and bearish TICK closes within this period.
Market Trend Label : Based on the TICK values, the indicator determines if the market is:
Uptrending: Majority of TICK values are positive.
Downtrending: Majority are negative.
Neutral/Rangebound: Equal positive and negative closes.
Zones : These represent certain threshold levels in the TICK values.
Positive Zones:
Dark Blue: 1000
Light Blue: 800 & 600
Negative Zones:
Red: -1000
Yellow: -800 & -600
Touch Detection Method : Detects intraday touches and can be toggled on/off based on the user's preference.
Usage Guidelines :
Trending Market :
In a trending market, the TICK index can remain consistently above or below zero.
For a market moving upwards, it's advisable to consider entering a trade when the indicator returns to zero instead of waiting for it to return to -1000.
Using Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) can provide additional confirmation of the trend.
Rangebound Market :
For sideways markets, consider initiating a long position when the TICK index goes below -1000 and exit the position when the index reaches +1000.
It's beneficial to pair these readings with significant support and resistance levels to make more informed trading decisions.
Divergence :
Divergence between the TICK index and price can be a good measure of the underlying market strength.
If a stock's price is making lower lows, but the TICK index is making higher lows, it might indicate weakening selling momentum.
Notes:
- Always use this indicator in conjunction with other technical analysis tools.
- Proper risk management practices are crucial when using any trading tool or strategy.
