Indikator Vortex / Vortex Indicator (VI)
Vortex Trend TrackerThough it may sound complex, the Vortex Indicator is essentially an uptrend line and a downtrend line. The vortex indicator can be used for a variety of purposes, including tracking the strength of trends, identifying/anticipating reversals, and generating entry/exit signals. It’s calculation is shown in the open-source code below.
To reduce the number of whipsaws produced by the indicator, we used an Exponential Moving Average of vmPlus and vmNegative values with a default length of 10. Decreasing this length will result in a more responsive vortex at the cost of more whipsaws and false signals.
The chart shows the absolute value of the difference between the uptrend and downtrend line displayed as the main histogram.
If the uptrend line is greater than the downtrend (thus indicating positive movement), then the histogram bars will be either light green or dark green. If the uptrend line has just now crossed the downtrend line, then the bar will be dark green. Bars will also be dark green when the uptrend line is greater than the downtrend line and the uptrend line is increasing. This means the trend is increasing in strength still. If the uptrend line is greater than the downtrend line, but is decreasing, then the bars will be light green. This means that the upwards trend is losing strength.
If the downtrend line is greater than the uptrend line, then there is a negative trend occurring and the bars will be either red or light red. If the downtrend line has just crossed over the uptrend line or is increasing in value, then the bar will be red. If the downtrend line is greater than the uptrend line, but is decreasing in value, then the bars will be light red (meaning the downtrend is weakening).
One way to trade using this vortex is to enter a long position when the bar color changes from red to light red. This would mean that the downtrend is decreasing in strength and an upwards reversal is likely to occur soon. Then, traders can exit their long position when the bars change from dark green to light green. When that color change occurs it means that the uptrend is running out of steam and price is unlikely to continue its upwards climb.
Traders can also choose to have the uptrend and downtrend lines plotted as well in the input menu. This may make it easier to visualize the Vortex and its usefulness in identifying reversals.
Profitable AroonIntroduction
The Aroon indicator was developed by well-known technical analyst Tushar Chande in 1995 and is used to identify trend changes in the price of an asset, as well as the strength of that trend. The fact that he named the indicator "Aroon" which is Sanskrit for "Dawn’s Early Light" demonstrates his belief in his indicator's trend discovery capabilities.
It is composed of two lines, Aroon Up and Aroon Down .
The most basic strategy is to use the crossovers as trade signals:
when Aroon Up crosses above Aroon Down , go Long
when Aroon Down crosses above Aroon Up , go Short
Exit when a crossover occurs in the opposite direction
What is this tool?
This tool is a performance scanner that uses a decision tree-based algorithm under the hood to find the most profitable period setting for the Aroon. It analyzes the range of periods between 2 to 100 and backtests the Aroon indicator for each period using the strategy mentioned above across the entire history of an instrument. If a more profitable parameter was found, the indicator will switch its value to the found one immediately.
Alerts
It has an alert that notifies when a more profitable period was found.
NOTE : It does not change what has already been plotted.
Good luck and Happy Trading!
Profitable Vortex Indicator ScannerIntroduction
The Vortex Indicator is a technical indicator invented by Etienne Botes and Douglas Siepman (Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities, V.28:1 (January, 2010): "The Vortex Indicator") to identify the start of a new trend or the continuation of an existing trend within financial markets.
It is composed of two lines, +VI and -VI . +VI represents up trending momentum and -VI represents down trending momentum.
The most basic strategy is to use the crossovers as trade signals:
when +VI crosses above -VI , go Long
when -VI crosses above +VI , go Short
Exit when a crossover occurs in the opposite direction

vortex indicator (lirshah)the Vortex Indicator consists of two oscillators that capture positive and negative trend movement.
Despite a rather involved formula, the indicator is quite straightforward to understand and easy to interpret.
A bullish signal triggers when the positive trend indicator crosses above the negative trend indicator or a key level. A bearish signal triggers when the negative trend indicator crosses above the positive trend indicator or a key level. The Vortex Indicator is either above or below these levels, which means it always has a clear bullish or bearish bias.
Buffet indicatorI was tired of not having something to compare the real economic strength of a country (US only for now...) to it's companies valuations.
So I made my own! Trading view does not have the wilshire indice, but it has the Rus 3000, good enough, & the US GDP since 1946 so this is what I am using.
Warren Buffet is famous for liking this so now the idea has its name. Let's call it the Buffet indicator (I doubt the only one that had the idea).
This indicator can be used on any indice thought, even on specific stocks.
You can even use it as a filter with an alarm (ofc not to be used on its own but patient people can really go far if they ONLY invest when the ratio is at the bottom, just as long as it is in the right companies):
One could invest in the middle of the highest green area (waiting for it to go too low = risk missing out), and add more when it goes to the second green area, for example. You sort it out.
Enjoy! See you on Mars luxury station in 25 years (the one I will build).
NeoButane Bitfinex BFXLS Vortex IndicatorScripted longs and shorts to the vortex indicator. It doesn't work like Vortex due to the two plots never crossing to congest.
Blue line: longs
Red line: shorts
Histogram: net volume, ohlc4 of both. Green if previous candle close had lower net volume, black if the previous candle close had more.
Deviance from the histogram: increased volume for the long or short side
Optional ADX line with customizable lookback; it can be difficult to understand due to it being completely horizontal unless you turn off the other plots.
Vortex Indicator w/ MACD HistoVortex Indicator showing Positive and Negative buying pressure. Included is a MACD Histogram that has been adjusted to the 1.00 plot line as base line instead of 0.00
Vortex Indicator with Thresholds DefinedA problem I noticed with the built in Vortex indicator was that it didn't include any defined thresholds that are important to understanding how to read the vortex indicator. So I modified the vortex indicator in order to have the thresholds built in so you don't have to draw horizontal lines on your chart.
