Pip collector [LazyBear]A simple but effective Forex strategy requested by user @pipcollector. Suggested chart timeframe is 5mins. Indicator marks potential long/short entries based on the following conditions: LONG ------ Price above pip median ema on daily, 4 hour and 1 hour timeframe. These 3 timeframes and median EMA lengths are configurable. Background color is set to GREEN (if option is enabled). As soon as price touches or crosses the median ema, a GREEN arrow is shown to mark potential long. SHORT ------ Price below pip median ema on daily, 4 hour and 1 hour timeframe. These 3 timeframes and median EMA lengths are configurable. Background color is set to RED (if option is enabled). As soon as price touches or crosses the median ema, a RED arrow is shown to mark potential short. NO SETUP ----------- Moving averages do not align on the 3 timeframes. Background color is set to GRAY (if option is enabled) I have noticed that this works well on other instruments too (anything trending), also on higher time frames. Feel free to leave any questions/comments on this below. List of my public indicators: bit.ly List of my app-store indicators: blog.tradingview.com

Belkhayate Timing [LazyBear]--- Update April 11, 2015 ---- I have merged in @TheMighyChicken's code (Thanks!) and added some more options. Updated source here - pastebin.com Changes: -------------- - Switch between plain candles and colored oscillator candles. - Switch between candles and plain oscillator view. --- Original Description --- Belkhayate Timing, by Mostafa Belkhayate, is very famous in the Forex groups. This is a port from one of the MT4 versions available. If you have used this in other platforms, do let me know if this looks compared to those. The usage is similar to that of ValueChart (). The middle area is the centroid or neutral area, the shaded regions (red/green) are extreme and beyond those are AlertZones. This seems to be used in conjunction with his other indicators, but, in my limited testing, I have seen this give a lot of good signals, especially on divergences. Indicator allows coloring bars based on the oscillator position or show oscillator histogram (Check the options page). Histogram=ON: No Oscillator Smoothing: @TheMightyChicken Can you do your candle magic on this oscillator too, just like you did for ValueChart? :) More Info: www.forexfactory.com List of my public indicators: bit.ly List of my app-store indicators: blog.tradingview.com

Volume Accumulation Percentage Indicator [LazyBear]Volume Accumulation Percentage Indicator (VAPI) is a variation of the classic volume-accumulation indicators. It uses volume the same way as OBV except that it assigns volume weights based on intraday volatility. In a positive trend, if the stock price is close to a (local) new high, the VAPI should be at its maximum as well (and vice versa for a negative trend). If the market is looking for a direction, if the price is in the bottom side of his current trading range and if, at the same moment the VAPI osc slopes up, there is accumulation on the stock and that the prices should start to climb. The SELL signal is given when the VAPI decreases (distribution). Divergences are usually very effective too. Tuning the "length" parameter may be needed for your instrument (default is 10), do let me know if you find a different value to be optimal for majority of instruments.

Cycle Channel Oscillator [LazyBear]Here's an oscillator derived from my previous script, Cycle Channel Clone (). There are 2 oscillator plots - fast & slow. Fast plot shows the price location with in the medium term channel, while slow plot shows the location of short term midline of cycle channel with respect to medium term channel. Usage of this is similar to %b oscillator. The slow plot can be considered as the signal line. Bar colors can be enabled via options page. When short plot is above 1.0 or below 0, they are marked purple (both histo and the bar color) to highlight the extreme condition. This makes use of the default 10/30 values of Cycle Channel, but may need tuning for your instrument.

Hurst Cycle Channel Clone [LazyBear]Cycle Channel is loosely based on Hurst's nested channels. Basic idea is to identify and highlight the shorter cycles, in the context of higher degree cycles. This indicator plots the shorter term (red) & medium term (green) cycles as channels. Some things to note: As you can see the red channel keeps moving with in the bounds of green channel. When green breaches red channel, it usually signifies extreme market condition. Both red & green channels provide support/resistance levels. Also, the green channel provides S/R levels to the inner red channel. Movement of red channel with reference to green highlights reversal points, reducing momentum et al. For ex., point "(x)" in the chart shows how red channel failed to reach the upper green channel line and highlighted the local top. Use this just like other bands/channels. I have more indicators derived from this idea, will post them later.

Insync Index [LazyBear]BB Support + Histo mode ------------------------------- Code: pastebin.com Show enclosing BB Show Insync as Histo: v02 - Configurable levels --------------------------------- Small update to allow configuring the 95/75/25/5 levels. Latest source code: pastebin.com v01 - orginal description --------------------------------- Insync Index, by Norm North, is a consensus indicator. It uses RSI, MACD, MFI, DPO, ROC, Stoch, CCI and %B to calculate a composite signal. Basically, this index shows that when a majority of underlying indicators is in sync, a turning point is near. There are couple of ways to use this indicator. - Buy when crossing up 5, sell when crossing down 95. - Market is typically bullish when index is above 50, bearish when below 50. This can be a great confirmation signal for price action + trend lines. Also, since this is typical oscillator, look for divergences between price and index. Levels 75/25 are early warning levels. Note that, index > 75 (and less than 95) should be considered very bullish and index below 25 (but above 5) as very bearish. Levels 95/5 are equivalent to traditional OB/OS levels. The various values of the underlying components can be tuned via options page. I have also provided an option to color bars based on the index value.

McClellan Summation Index [LazyBear]McClellan Summation Index is a breadth indicator derived from McClellan Oscillator (). The Summation Index is simply a running total of the McClellan Oscillator values. Even though it is called a Summation Index, the indicator is really an oscillator that fluctuates above/below zero. As such, signals can be derived from bullish/bearish divergences, directional movement and centerline crossovers. A moving average can also be applied to identify upturns and downturns. Indicator uses the advancing/declining stocks from NYSE by default, but you can change them to any market in the options dialog.

McClellan Oscillator [LazyBear]Developed by Sherman and Marian McClellan, the McClellan Oscillator is a breadth indicator derived from Net Advances, the number of advancing issues less the number of declining issues. Subtracting the 39-day exponential moving average of Net Advances from the 19-day exponential moving average of Net Advances forms the oscillator. As the formula reveals, the McClellan Oscillator is a momentum indicator that works similar to MACD. McClellan Oscillator signals can be generated with breadth thrusts, centerline crossovers, overall levels and divergences. I have added the following options: - Can choose Advancing/Declining issues of any market. Default is NYSE. - Can show the EMAs and/or oscillator. - Ratio Adjusted Calculation mode (as explained in the stockcharts link below) or default mode. - Can use custom timeframe. Default is chart timeframe. More info: stockcharts.com Complete list of my indicators: docs.google.com Thanks @mpinky for pointing out the StockCharts version of this oscillator.

Mirrored MACD [LazyBear]This is a famous indicator I have seen used by many Forex traders in MT4 platform. This indicator uses the difference between EMA of "close" and EMA of "open" to form the oscillator lines (not just a convergence/divergence calculation between EMA of "close") Current market state is determined by which histogram is above zero line. For more confirmation, wait for it to cross above Signal line too. Crossing down the signal or zeroline should be the exit condition. Also, look for divergences. Use plot labels BullHisto/BearHisto/BearLine/BullLine/ZeroLine/Signal for setting up alerts. Complete list of my indicators: ----------------------------- docs.google.com

LBR Paintbars [LazyBear] Added coloring of LB bars above/below Keltner Channel (as suggested by user @20813 below in the comments). Updated code: pastebin.com See comments section below for a sample chart. Copy the code from the pastebin above and update your local copy (TV doesn't allow me to update an already published code -- yet!). Added features: - Switch ON/OFF KC - Mark LB bars above/below KC ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The LBR PaintBars indicator changes the colour of the price bars based on the trend direction (derived from price & volatility bands). This is mostly used as a confirmation indicator. For the Pine coders: I suggest trying stdev() in lieu of atr()...some wild combinations can be derived from this simple idea :) Indicator supports the following options: - Switching on/off volatility bands - Switching on/off LBR colors (lime/maroon). - Color non-LBR bars (blue).

Price Volume Rank [LazyBear]Price-Volume Rank, designed by Anthony J. Macek, compares the direction of the change in price (up or down) to the direction of the change in volume and assigns a number to that specific relationship. By quantifying price/volume interaction, P-V rank seeks to determine our position within a typical market cycle. The various modes shown on the chart above or explained below. Also, read on for a little trick using the new Pine feature that you can use in your script. How to read the PVR? ------------------- The most desirable market condition occurs when both price and volume are moving up, that phenomenon is assigned a PVR of 1. The next most desirable condition, when prices are still moving up but volume is diminishing, is given a PVR of 2. Although still technically healthy, this relationship between price and volume issues a warning that market momentum is weakening. The worst-case scenario, seen when selling pressure is greatest with prices dropping and volume increasing, is given PVR's weakest designation, 4. Finally, even though prices are still moving down, volume begins to diminish as selling pressure abates. This price/volume relationship is assigned a PVR of 3, often alerting us to a potential buying opportunity ahead. What do the modes mean? ---------------------- 1) Histogram Mode: This plots PVR along with helpful ranges. Be careful when PVR is trending at turn-around points. 2) MA Crossover Mode: This plots a slow/fast MA of PVR. Default is 5/10 SMA. Buy is signalled when slow MA falls below fast MA. Sell is signalled when slow MA crosses up fast MA. There is a warning line at 2.5 that can be used for more confirmation. 3) Double Smoothed Crossover Mode: Same as MA crossover, but PVR is smoothed more. Warning line (2.5 level) is very useful in this mode. Use slow MA as the signal and fast MA of PVR for tracking the market. Misc notes: ----------- This won't work for Forex and other instruments for which TradingView doesn't expose volume. Thanks to the new Text rendering feature of PlotShape(), I can actually let users know of that :) Good use-case, eh? I will post a sample chart below in the comments. Feel free to use any part of this code in your indicators. More info: -------- Stocks & Commodities V. 12:6 (235-239): Price-Volume Rank by Anthony J.

Volatility Switch Indicator [LazyBear]The Volatility Switch (VOLSWITCH) indicator, by Ron McEwan, estimates current volatility in respect to historical data, thus indicating whether the market is trending or in mean reversion mode. Range is normalized to 0 - 1. When Volatility Switch rises above the 0.5 level, volatility in the market is increasing, thus the price action can be expected to become choppier with abrupt moves. When the indicator falls below the 0.5 level from recent high readings, volatility decreases, which may be considered a sign of trend formation. Trading strategy as suggested by Ron McEwan is: - If VOLSWITCH is less than 0.5, volatility decreases, which may be considered a sign of trend formation - If VOLSWITCH is greater than 0.5, market is in high volatility mode. Can be choppy. Use RSI to look for OB/OS levels. I have implemented support for 2 lengths (14 and 21) Note that, Pine doesn't support loops. Once it is introduced, I will publish an updated version. Building a strategy out of this is straightforward (refer to my strategy explanation above), I strongly encourage new Pinescript coders to try to a plotarrow() based overlay indicator to get more familiar with Pine.

Anchored Momentum [LazyBear]Anchored Momentum (AMOM), by Rudy Stefenel, is a modified momentum indicator to capture the relative momentum. AMOM uses SMA as the reference for deriving momentum, thereby anchoring it to that MA rather than "value of close n bars back". Mr.Stefenel suggests using this like other oscillators -- crossing signal line, crossing zero, divergences. For alerts, use "Momentum", "Signal" and "ZeroLine" plots. Configurable options: - Momentum Period: Default is 10. - Signal Period: Default is 8. - Smooth Momentum: Default is FALSE. If TRUE, enables EMA(close) to be used rather than "close". - Smoothing Period: Default is 7. If momentum smoothing is enabled, this period is used. - Show Histogram: Default is FALSE. This is not histogram per se (indicator - signal), but is used for highlighting the crosses. Check out the histogram pane below to see an example. - Enable Barcolors: Default is FALSE. If enabled, colors the price data (bars/candles) using histogram color. More info: Anchored Momentum, Stocks & Commodities V16:2 (89-98) Complete list of all my indicators: docs.google.com

Market Direction Indicator [LazyBear]Market Direction Indicator (MDI), by Donald Lambert, is an extension of simple moving average cross over systems. Series of price cross over points are determined to derive MDI. Note that the short/long lengths will differ between instruments. They need to be tuned properly. I have added an option to specify a "cutoff" parameter. When MDI is in the cutoff zone (-/+ cutoff), bars are colored gray. Set this to zero to turn off cutoffs. Other options: - OverlayMode: Enable this to color bars. MDI values are not plotted. If unchecked, MDI default rendering mode is Histogram mode. - ShowBelowZero: Plots the negative values below zero (Oscillator mode) Use "MDI" and "ZeroLine" for setting up alerts. Make sure MDI is in OscillatorMode. Master list of all my indicators: docs.google.com

Ehlers Universal Oscillator [LazyBear]Universal Oscillator by Mr. Ehlers is an evolution of his SuperSmoother filter. The new indicator follows the swings in price without introducing extra delay. It is controlled through one single input – the band edge – which basically is frequency. The smaller it is set, the less lag there is, but you may see lot of whipsaws. Built-in automatic gain control normalizes the output to vary between the range of -1 to +1. Mr. Ehlers suggests a straightforward system: - Buy when long-term Universal Oscillator crosses above zero - Sell when long-term Universal Oscillator crosses below zero I have added options to draw a signal line, histogram and bar coloring. Bar coloring, if enabled, is done using the histogram color, but you can change it easily to signal_cross by uncommenting a line (check the source).

Vervoort Heiken-Ashi LongTerm Candlestick Oscillator [LazyBear]HACOLT (Heikin Ashi Candles Oscillator Long Term) is a technical indicator designed by Sylvain Vervoort. It is based on Mr.Vervoort's other indicator, HACO (Heikin-Ashi Candles Oscillator - posted here: ). Optimized for long-term trading, HACOLT shows three levels: -1, 0 and 1. These levels suggest "an open short position", "no open position", and "an open long position", respectively. Passing from a certain level to another is viewed as a trading signal: - Rising from -1 or 0 to 1 suggests a Long Entry and Short exit; - Falling from 1 to 0 or -1 suggests a Long Exit; - Falling from 1 or 0 to -1 indicates a Short Entry. Fits in nicely with any trading setup as a confirmation indicator More info: - tlc.thinkorswim.com - www.motivewave.com List of my other indicators: - GDoc: docs.google.com - Chart:

Vervoort Heiken Ashi Candlestick OscillatorHeiken-Ashi Candlestick Oscillator (HACO), by Sylvian Vervoort, is a digital oscillator version of the colored candlesticks. Explanation from Vervoort: "HACO is not meant to be an automatic trading system, so when there is a buy or sell signal from HACO, make sure it is confirmed by other TA techniques. HACO will certainly aid in signaling buy/sell opportunities and help you hold on to a trade, making it more profitable. The behavior of HACO is closely related to the level and speed of price change. It can be used on charts of any time frame ranging from intraday to monthly." HACO has 2 configurable length parameters - "UP TEMA length" and "Down TEMA length". Vervoort suggests having them the same value. I have also added an option to color the bars (overlay mode).
