Current to BTC [Morty]This indicator helps you find strong bull altcoin, it shows the ratio of the current symbol to BTC.
Donchian Channels help to identify trends.
Alts Bull coins:
When BTC goes sideway, they pump first.
Alts Bear coins:
When BTC goes sideway, they move sideway.
When BTC goes down, they go down harder.

Donchian Channels strategy with backtestHere's another trading strategy for you. This one is based on the standard Donchian Channels.
This one will - by default - wait for 2 consecutive higher highs (or lower lows) before taking a position. This can be disabled so the script will take a new trade without waiting for the 2nd high or low.
This is useful to avoid getting into a trade when market makers are aiming for a swing-failure pattern (= taking out stop/losses below the last low or above the last high)
For people who don't like to short, there's also the option to exclude shorts.
Enjoy!
ZigZag ChannelThis is recreation of Donchian Channel - Pivot High Low indicator present here:
But, instead of traditional pivot high lows, this is based on pivots created from zigzag indicator.
This indicator is created on top of existing Zigzag indicator using lines array:
Parameter HighLowLength refers to number of zigzag lines back which can be used to calculate top and bottom of donchian channel.
RSI+ChannelbandsThis Indicator displays a normal RSI with overbought/-sold lines which is calculated with donchian channels, pivot channel, bollinger bands and three horizontal lines.
You can averaged the channels, bands and h-lines in any combination or you can use just one of them for calculating the overbought/-sold lines.
The midline is colored in default settings in yellow for upptrending and blue for downtrending.
Adaptive Donchian ChannelThis is Slight modified version of Donchian channel. Only change here is, channels update only when there is breakout. If price keeps ranging within channel, it will not contract based on new highest and lowest range.
This can be used for identifying powerful breakouts post long consolidation and filter out fakeouts.
Value RangeHere is another attempt to chase value based on technical analysis.
This is extended version of PE range script published earlier.
Instead of just PE, this script contains several other factors which defines value. You can chose which factor to look at from input dialog:
Possible value factors included in this script are:
Price to Earnings
Price to Sales
Price to Book
PE - Forwarding
PS - Forwarding
Price to Cashflow
Enterprise Value to EBITDA
Enterprise Value to Cashflow
Some of these can be added to chart directly from financials. But, the script also calculate range based on donchian channel or bollinger bands. Instead of short periods, we are looking for periods in terms of years. Rest of things remain same.
Fat Side PathI got the idea for a narrow Donchian Channel with a short lookback period which closely follows the price fluctuation in which the sides of the channel have a thickness according to the range of the last touching candle.
Any channel, be it Donchian, Keltner, Bollinger Bands or Parallel, has an upside and a downside, touching the upside is a buy signal as this may initiate an uptrend, the downside a sell signal because a down trend may come.
This gave me the idea to make only the last touched side fat, thus creating visible switching between uptrend and downtrend. However this is ‘too digital’, as in practice also periods of no trend occur in which signaling a trend would give a false signal. In a Donchian channel (and also Bollinger Bands) such periods are marked by narrowing the channel. So I gave a no trend signal to the sides when the channel is narrower than a minimum width to call a trend. I gave the thing nice colours and proper default settings.
Use of the channel in trading.
I think this thing can be useful for swing trading. In channels two typical things may happen that should be noted by the trader, these are LB, Leaving the Border, which signals a trend reversal and FTT, Failure To Traverse, i.e. the price doesn’t manage to cross the channel to the other side. This affirms the trend. FTT’s are not expected in short lookback channels like this path (Sidenote: Fibonacci levels can be regarded as predictions where FTT’s may occur). The fat side indicates direction. Because somehow trends seem to end with a notable range extension, this channel sometimes produces a “Big Blob” where the trend reverses.
I intend to use this thing together with my Keltner Fibzones channel, where the zones serve as a ‘landscape’ in which the Fat Side Path meanders providing ‘comments’ on the short term price movements.
Donchian Channel - trend filterTrend filter created based on donchian channel. I am using my custom donchian channel as base for this indicator:
Concept is simple.
We count how many times price is hitting donchian channel top or bottom without hitting the other side and keep counter for both. Thus:
upCount is the number of times price hits donchian channel top without hitting bottom
downCount is the number of times price hits donchian channel bottom without hittin top
trendCountLimit is the minimum value of upCount or downCount to call it uptrend or downtrend.
donchain support&resistance levels [LM]Hello Traders,
I would like to introduce you donchain support&resistance levels. The idea is to look for important levels that are identified by donchain line, where donchain usualy spents a lot of time without any move usualy turns out to be good level for bounces.
Also note that when there is a big spread between first line and second line it usually leads to some pullback.
Here you have an example of big spread:
You are also able to show donchain lines and not only horizontals this you can find in settings:
Enjoy!
Fixed price Stop Loss [Takazudo]This strategy is a demo for fixed price stop loss.
This strategy enables you to specify fixed price stop loss. Let's say your deposit is USD. When you trade EURCAD, you need to specify the quantity for trade. Here comes three chances for trade.
A: SL pips: 500
B: SL pips: 200
C: SL pips: 100
In these trade, the risk is different for each. ABC risk ratio is 5:2:1. And, you cannot know how much to lose if the price hits the stop loss. This is a huge problem.
With this strategy, You can specify the fixed risk price for each trade. If you specify 100 USD for the risk, this strategy calculates how much quantity to buy or sell for each entry. In the case above, this strategy guides you how much quantity to buy or sell like below.
A: 2,000 qty (SL: 500pips)
B: 5,000 qty (SL: 200pips)
C: 10,000 qty (SL: 100pips)
If you make entries with those quantity and the price hits the stop loss, You will lose the money like below.
A: 100 USD
B: 100 USD
C: 100 USD
This is what this script does. Fixed price SL.
I tested this caliculation for OANDA's main 28 currency pairs forex listed below.
AUDUSD, EURUSD, GBPUSD, NZDUSD, USDCAD, USDCHF, USDJPY, AUDCAD, AUDCHF, AUDJPY, AUDNZD, CADCHF, CADJPY, CHFJPY, EURAUD, EURCAD, EURCHF, EURGBP, EURJPY, EURNZD, GBPAUD, GBPCAD, GBPCHF, GBPJPY, GBPNZD, NZDCAD, NZDCHF, NZDJPY
I may add more pairs later.
Note: The entry strategy in this script is not intented to win. Check the result. Be careful.
Custom FIBOThis script shows 3 Donchian Channel 78.6% and 21.4% intermediary level lines to perform trade analysis. Besides those 6 lines it also optionally shows Fibonacci's retracements with 100%, 127%, 162%, 200% and 262% for one of the Donchian channels.
The 3 Donchian Channels used have default lengths 72, 305 and 1292, calculated after the first length default value of 72. For each of the 3 Donchian Channels only an upper line, set by default at 78.6%, is plotted in green and its complement, set to 21.4%, is plotted in red. When the closing price is above 3 green lines, we say it is Forbidden to Sell ( PV ), and when the closing price is below 3 red lines, we say it is Forbidden to Buy ( PC ). Those conditions are flagged on the chart. These PV-PC conditions were, up to my knowledge, first proposed by Bo Williams.
Fibonacci's retracements are show for the Donchian Channel with length 72 by default, but it can be changed to any length. They are colored as fuchsia (100%), blue (127%), orange (162%), yellow (200%) and navy (262%).
Donchian Channels Trending Breakout StrategyThis script looks for two entry signals. Long is when the previous breakout of the donchian channels was a low, price is above the input EMA, current price is equal or higher than the upper band and we're not in a position yet. Short is the other way around, so previous breakout of the donchian channels was a high, price is below the input EMA, current price is equal or lower than the lower band.
I haven't found a script that does take the previous highs and lows into consideration. Works for any markets in any conditions because the stop loss and profit targets are based on the upper and lower band of the donchian channels, which means the stop loss and profit targets move with the trend.
For more details see the script itself, I wrote a ton of comments.
HiLo Extension This Strategy is finding high and low breaks of the day and enter into the trader based on RSI value and time value
1) This strategy is created for Indian Index like Nifty, Bank Nifty and so...
2) Trades are initiate only after 10:15 AM and before 3:10PM
3) High and Low of the day break will be check during the above time frame
4) RSI value will be check (RSI 50)
5) and trade will be initiate
6) Stop loss set as vwma 20...
Note: This Script will work fine in Index future chart not index spot chart...
This is just my idea only... Please back test yourselve, before using it..
Your comments are welcome!
MACD Crossover trend strategy, Long and ShortHey everybody,
This is my first strategy and script I wrote mostly myself. There's tons of content out there to learn how to code in Pinescript and it's exactly what I wanted and needed in this time of my life.
In any case, I made a rather simple MACD crossover strategy that only takes trades in the direction of both EMA and SMA (there are inputs to change the length of the moving averages and lots of other stuff too).
If the MACD line crosses upwards on the signal line, while above the zero point of the histogram and the price is above EMA + SMA , it's a long signal.
If the MACD line cosses downards on the signal line, while below zero on the histogram and the price is below EMA + SMA , it's a short signal.
There are a lot of default variables that make no sense, for basically any symbol you're going to be looking at. You're going to have to adjust the EMA , SMA , backtest date, take profit, stop loss and all that good stuff yourself to find decently profitable parameters.
I made this myself because I couldn't really find a strategy out there that allowed for so much customizing and it's an easy way to get started in Pinescript.
If you have any suggestions, tips or you see a flatout mistake in my code, please let me know. I'm still learning, everyday and I'm enjoying every second of it.
Donchian Channel - CustomThis is an extension to Donchian Channel - Pivot High Low indicator. Creating new version as the new type added isn't related to pivot high/low.
New type added is based on moving average. Instead of using highest and lowest of n bars, here, we are using lowest and highest of moving average of highs and lows for n bars.
Previous version of Donchian channel pivot points can be found here:
Donchian Zig-Zag [LuxAlgo]The following indicator returns a line bouncing of the extremities of a Donchian channel, with the aim of replicating a "zig-zag" indicator. The indicator can both be lagging or lagging depending on the settings user uses.
Various extended lines are displayed in order to see if the peaks and troughs made by the Donchian zig-zag can act as potential support/resistance lines.
User Settings
Length : Period of the Donchian channel indicator, higher values will return fewer changes of directions from the zig-zag line
Bounce Speed : Determine the speed of bounces made by the zig-zag line, with higher values making the zig-zag line converge faster toward the extremities of the Donchian channel.
Gradient : Determine whether to use a gradient to color the area between each Donchian channel extremities, "On" by default.
Transparency : Transparency of the area between each Donchian channel extremities.
Usage
It is clear that this is not a very common indicator to see, as such usages can be limited and very hypothetical. Nonetheless, when a bounce speed value of 1 is used, the zig-zag line will have the tendency to lag behind the price, and as such can provides crosses with the prices which can provide potential entries.
The advantage of this approach against most indicators relying on crosses with the price is that the linear nature of the indicator allows avoiding retracements, thus potentially holding a position for the entirety of the trend.
Altho this indicator would not necessarily be the most adapted to this kind of usage.
When using a bounce speed superior to 1, we can see the predictive aspects of the indicator:
We can link the peaks/troughs made by the zig-zag with the precedent ones made to get potential support and resistance lines, while such a method is not necessarily accurate it still allows for an additional to interpret the indicator.
Conclusions
We presented an indicator aiming to replicate the behaviour of a zig-zag indicator. While somehow experimental, it has the benefits of being innovative and might inspire users in one way or another.
AK collection area- Based on Coach AK formula of determining collection area of retracement stock.
- If price below collection area, collect in tranches.
Relative Channel BandwidthThis indicator uses different volatility channels - Bollinger Band, Donchian Channel and Keltner Channel width to measure volatility.
Indicator plots channel bandwidth percentage with respect to close price.
This is not same as Bollinger Percent B - which is measure of where price is with respect to band. Instead this indicator is similar to ATR Percent indicator published here:
Plotting is color coded to indicate volatility zone:
Red : Extreme volatility
Orange : High volatility
Lime : Low volatility
Green : Extreme low volatility
These levels are again derived by long period bollinger bands
Adoptive Supertrend - BandsAnother adoption of supertrend. This time based on different channels - Bollinger Band, Keltner Channel, Donchian Channel and Pivot point based Donchian channel.
When price hits top of bands, it is considered as start or continuation of uptrend. When price hits bottom of the band it is considered as start or continuation of downtrend. Hence, supertrend is drawn based on these calculations. Use ATR Periods and ATR Multiplier to create stops certain ATR away from band's top and bottom.
Other supertrend adoptions published are here:
Pivot point based donchian channel is published here:
Donchian Channel - Pivot High-LowCombining Pivot High Low and Donchian Channel - both of which are useful indicators for trend following.
Donchian Channel shows highest and lowest prices for X number of bars.
Pivot High-Low identifies when price made new Highs and Lows
Applying Donchian Channel on Pivot High-Low channel, we are plotting highest and lowest pivots formed in X bars.
In this indicator, we have 3 options for Channel Base :
Price : This is regular Donchian channel based on High-Low Price
Pivots : This is Donchian channel based on pivot points.
Combined : Combines both. Takes highest of Price and Pivots for plotting high, lowest of Price and Pivots for plotting low
Donchian DipThe Donchian Dip
This strategy is designed to look for good "Buy the Dip" entries on stocks that are clearly in a strong 1-year upward trend. If you do not know how to identify those stocks on your own please do not use this system or continue your education until you do. The Donchian Dip strategy was designed on the daily time frame but works amazingly well on both daily and weekly timeframes. It does still work on intraday charts also if the current trend on the daily chart is in a strong uptrend.
Chart Setup:
3-period Donchian Channel with a 1-period offset (hide basis)
Bollinger Bands with the default settings of 20/2 (display basis)
Entry Signals:
There are 3 different entry signals that will be printed on the chart that have similar underlying criteria but are ranked based on skill level just like ski slope skill levels! I recommend only taking green entries until you are familiar with the system and the stocks you are trading.
Green Easy Entry:
This is the safest buy the dip entry that is normally found at or near a large retracement bottom. You might get one or two bad entries but be persistent and eventually, a great entry will present itself!
These are the specifics for the conditions that trigger a Green entry if you want to know what they are:
1. The current bar is an up bar (green or white bar) and closed above the lower Donchian channel
2. Previous bar or 2 bars back closed below the lower Donchian channel
3. Previous bar or 2 bars back closed below the Bollinger Band Basis (20 SMA )
4. The low of the previous bar or 2 bars back was below the lower Bollinger Band
Blue Intermediate Entry:
This is a decent entry if you missed the green entry, want to add to an existing position, or are not sure it will pull back far enough to even give a green entry. I would suggest only trade these entries to add to an existing pyramid position or get back into a trade that you were recently stopped out of. However, on high-flying stocks like TSLA these signals and the Black Diamond entry signals might be the only ones you get for a long time. Also, on the weekly chart, Blue or Black entries are sometimes all you will get for a year or more.
These are the specifics for the conditions that trigger a Blue entry if you want to know what they are:
1. The current bar is an up bar (green or white bar) and closed above the lower Donchian channel
2. Previous bar or 2 bars back closed below the lower Donchian channel
3. Previous bar or 2 bars back closed below the Bollinger Band Basis (20 SMA )
Black Diamond Advanced Rule:
This is normally just a small pullback re-entry signal on a strong trending stock like TSLA ...trade with extreme caution!!! You have been warned but daredevils feel free to give it a shot. I sometimes do trade these entries if the market and sector of the stock I am trading are extremely bullish or if I am looking to add to a position but I use a conservative stop.
These are the specifics for the conditions that trigger a Black entry if you want to know what they are:
1. The current bar is an up bar (green or white bar) and closed above the lower Donchian channel
2. Previous bar or 2 bars back closed below the lower Donchian channel
3. Previous bar or 2 bars back closed above the Bollinger Band Basis (20 SMA )
Exit Criteria:
The goal of this strategy is to buy the dip and hold as long as possible...let's practice some Paytience and exercise those holding muscles! RLT!!!
So, we don't want to exit early but we also want to protect our profits somehow. We do this by using the built-in trailing stops that are defined by dots of three different shades of purple on the chart (feel free to change these in the settings). Simply move your trailing stop to the highest current dot price level. Do not move the trailing stop down ever even if a lower dot is printed later. These are simply the suggested trailing stops and definitely use your own judgment for exits but if you backtest this strategy enough you will most likely discover that in the long run, these trailing stops work really well.
I hope this strategy helps you to identify good "Buy the Dip" entries on stocks you love as well as trains you to hold your winners longer for bigger gains.
