Average True Range (ATR)

Average Gain/LossThe Average Gain/Loss indicator adds rays to show what the average trade range might be for a given ticker based on historical data. Green lines are the average gain, red lines are the average loss and black are the overall average. Darker lines are the average of close to close and lighter lines are the candle averages. Default average is set to 50 bars but is adjustable in settings. Have modification ideas for this indicator? Just let me know and I will gladly consider them!

RSI Trend LineI took a concept similar to the "Adaptive RSI" to get the RSI overlaid on a price chart. The problem I have with the Adaptive RSI is to me it sticks too closely to price. I wanted something much more visually helpful that can provide actual tradable signals and strategies. The orange line you are seeing is the "RSI Trend Line" The further the RSI moves away from a value of 50 (the "zero line"), the more you see this orange line move away from price. This helps visualize the strength of price pushing away from a neutral value to a position of strength or weakness-- if orange is below price then relative strength is high; if orange is above price then relative strength is low. When price is equal to the orange RSI line, the RSI is at a value of 50. In addition to the trend line, you can enable bands which reflect Overbought and Oversold levels . If you leave the responsiveness to a value of 1.0 and removed any smoothing, these should pretty accurately reflect an actual RSI chart topping the OB and OS lines (default 70 and 30, respectively). (They're still very close with different responsiveness and smoothing values) The conversion or scaling of RSI value onto price comes with a bit of a quirk which I decided to leave to the user to determine how they want it applied. So the setting "Responsiveness" will impact the sort of aggressiveness of the RSI trend line as well as the the size of the bands. You could think of this in some ways as the OPPOSITE of the multiple setting on a Bollinger or Keltner band-- 1.0 will make for the widest band, 2.0 is the default and my preference, and you can move it up to a value of 5.0. Here are some examples of how you could use the indicator for trade signals-- And here's my thought on the current state (as of 10/06) on indices with regards to this indicator-

RT - GANNGann relied heavily on geometrical and numerical relationships and created several tools to help with his work. Among these tools are the Square of Nine, Square of 144, and the Hexagon. The Square of Nine, or Square as we will refer to here, can be constructed in at least two ways. The static Square has the number 1 at the center and the dynamic Square has the historic low of the time series in the center. EVERY 1 HOUR GANN CHANGE THE LAVELS ,ITS BASED ON CLOSE PRICE

Supertrend - Ladder ATRThis is a supertrend with slight twisted concept which can be very benefecial in strong trending markets to reduce stop loss distance and exit slightly quicker. ⬜ Concept ▶ When the instrument is trending up, regular ATR shows high values if there are big green candles. This affect the stoploss distance in regular supertrend which leads to wide stops or delayed lagging. When you are in long trade, what matters for stoploss is how much a negative candle can move within bar. Hence, using ATR derived only based on red candles is more beneficial for trailing stops on long signals. Same applies to short trades where using ATR derived from only green candles is more efficient than overall ATR. ▶ ATR will be minimal when the volatility is less and ATR will increase with volatility. That means, once you are in trade, the trailing of stoploss also will vary based on ATR (or volatility). With regular ATR and supertrend, chances of stop loss distance widening is high with increased volatility even though stoploss levels will not move down. This again poses the risk of higher drawdown during trade closure and also keeps in the trade during ranging market. To avoid this, the second trick we are using here is only to reduce the atr stoploss difference when in trade. That is, when in long trade and negative candles ATR is increasing, we will not consider that. We will consider the new ATR only if it is lesser than previous bar ATR. Effect of these changes on the trending market is quite visual. Lets take example of USDTRY Settings are quite simple and does not vary much from regular supertrend settings.

Average True Range NormalizedIntroduction This simple script is the normalization of the common ATR indicator. The utility in normalization, in this case, is the contextualization of the absolute movements of the ATR compared to the previous candles. Not finding an indicator that reflected my needs, I created it and decided to make it available to the community. The oscillator is fully based on the original ATR indicator, once normalized it varies its values between -50 and +50 and has a moving average based on it. I added alarms: - crossing of horizontal levels (default +40 -40) - crossing of the moving average Settings ATR period : like a normal ATR indicator, the number of candles on which the ATR calculation is based Smooth : like normal ATR indicator, type of moving average to smooth true range values Normalization Period : Number of candles on which ATR normalization is based, it takes the maximum and the minimum values in the last N candles and creates the value -50 and +50, between these two values normalize the others. MA Period : Period of MA based on ATR, this MA can be used like moving level to find the moment of low volatility Type : Kind of MA, you can choose only between 3 types ( SMA, EMA, WMA ) Horizontal Lines Value : high and low level for high and low volatility Alert on crossing Horizontal lines : enable alerts on crossing Horizontal Lines Alert on crossing MA : enable alerts on crossing Moving Average How to use ATR isn't a directional indicator, but volatility is fuel for markets, low ATR values indicate quiet moments or consolidation movements, otherwise high ATR values indicate selling or buying pressure. A reversal in price with an increase in ATR would indicate strength behind that move. The problem, for me, with normal ATR is that often the values have to be contextualized with older values, on the contrary being normalized you can: - catch small fluctuations, and anticipate the decline; - contextualize the values without having to look at the history in the previous candles So: - under MA or horizontal line the volatility is too low, it would be advisable to consider not opening positions; - over MA line the volatility is raising and a reversal in price with an increase in ATR would indicate strength behind that move; Remember that every statistical indicator is just a tool, it needs to be understood to be used at its best, otherwise, it is just a colored line in a colored graph.

Modified ATR Indicator [KL]Modified Average True Range (ATR) Indicator This indicator displays the ATR with relative highs and relative lows statistically determined. What is ATR: To know what ATR is, we need to understand what a True Range (TR) is. - TR at a given bar is the highest distance between points: a) High vs low, b) High vs Close, and c) Low vs Close. - ATR is the moving average of TRs over a predefined lookback period; 14 is the most commonly used. - ATR can be mathematically expressed as: Why is ATR Important ATR often used to measure volatility; high volatility is indicated by high ATR, vice versa for low. This is a versatile tool allowing traders to determine entry/exit points, as well as the size of stop losses and when to take profits relative to it. This is an opinion: Through observations, I have noticed that ATR can also indirectly tell us the levels of relative volume. This intuitively makes sense because in order to increase length of TR, high amounts of capital inflow/outflow is required (graphically speaking, high volume is required in order to make lengths of candle sticks longer). The relationship between ATR and relative volume should hold unless the market is illiquid to the extreme that there is no relationship between volume and price. That said, knowing the relative lows/highs of ATR is very useful. It can be interpreted as: - Relative high = high volatility, usually during sell offs - Relative low = decreasing volume, could indicate price consolidation Instead of arbitrarily determining whether ATR is high/low, this indicator will determine relative highs and relative lows using a simple statistical model. How relative high/low is determined by this model This indicator applies two-tailed hypothesis testing to test whether ATR (ie. say lookback of 14) has greatly deviated from a larger sample size (ie. lookback of 50). Assuming ATR is normally distributed and variance is known, then test statistic (z) can be used to determine whether ATR14 is within the critical area under Null Hypothesis: ATR14 == ATR50. If z falls below/above the left/right critical values (ie. 1.645 for a 90% confidence interval), then this is shown by the indicator through using different colors to plot the ATR line.

Bjorgum Key Levels Key Levels Aims to capture 3 of the most significant points in price action Breakouts False Breakouts (Traps) Back Checks These 3 points ​​alone, if properly identified, can be some of the most significant points of movement in the price history of an asset and bring significant gains to traders, if capitalized on. Here are a few examples of these setups Breakouts Breakouts can bring significant rallies as the market swings one sided after key levels are breached. This entry type can bring large trending runs to follow. Momentum is on your side, but the trade off is a higher entry. False Breakouts Also known as a bull trap or a bear trap, false breaks can lead to swift and significant reversals and potential for a large and sudden move to the opposite side. When a key level breakout fails to hold, parties entering to capitalize on the "epic breakout" can get left holding the bag forcing them to exit at a loss, which can double the force of pressure. Traps can bring swift gains from good entry prices. However, price is still in a larger trend against you so momentum is weak, so price action is susceptible to roll over. Backchecks Back checks are pull backs in trend that find middle ground to the 2 areas already described. Both momentum and entry price are decent, but risk is defined as a key level has flipped offering entry with stops below demand, or above supply. Combining these 3 methods helps to diversify risk, understand trend development, and bring steady gains. This script helps to identify these points to traders with analysis of key levels, price structure, and trend direction, while providing visual signals and alerts for when they occur. Best of luck in your coding and trading and thank you for your support

ATR Trailing Stop v5 One of my favorite stops is the ATR Trailing Stop-loss. With the implementation of PineScript v5, a code update was needed in order to use this stop/exit-strategy with newer strategy scripts. A timeframe selector that was not featured on earlier versions is also included. This new version can be plugged into PineScript v5 strategies, and also has a simpler/cleaner code that makes the code logic easier to follow than prior versions. For those that are unfamiliar with the ATR Trailing Stop exit strategy; it is a trailing stop that takes into account the volatility of the underlying asset by trailing the price series using a multiple of the Average True Range (ATR). In practice I’ve found that this exit can be more effective than traditional trailing stops, depending on the volatility of the asset you are trading. More detailed information can be found at www.stockopedia.com How do I use it? Add it to your chart as an indicator to visualize where the ATR stop would be with your settings. Or, copy and add it to your v5 strategy with the addition of a ta.crossunder(close, ATRTrailingStop) or ta.crossover(close, ATRTrailingStop) function. Special thanks and credit to HPotter who coded an earlier version of this in pine!

Logarithmic Average True Range In the case of ATR, it is known to represent volatility by simply expressing the price range. However, of course, as the value of an asset increases, it is not possible to simply compare it with a numerical value, so the ATR was expressed as a percentage using a logarithmic function. This way we can see the volatility even with ATR. ATR의 경우 단순하게 가격의 범위만을 표현하여 변동성을 나타낸다고 알려져있습니다. 하지만 당연하게도 자산의 가치가 높아질수록 단순하게 수치만으로 비교할 수는 없고, 따라서 로그함수를 사용해 %로 ATR을 표현하였습니다. 이렇게 표현하면 ATR로도 변동성을 볼 수 있습니다.

Weber Trend SuiteThe Weber Trend Suite (WTS) supports trend trading over longer timeframes. Identification of the trend direction Automatic identification of support and resistance level Multi-Timeframe Designed as a decision making framework for trading trending growth assets such as tech stocks and cryptocurrencies The support and resistance lines are derived from the high, low and direction (bearish/bullish) from the latest outside bar at a time. The timeframe on which outside bars are detected can be chosen freely by the user. The importance of an outside bars tends to increase with the timeframe. Outside bars can play an important role in price action trading by providing support and resistance levels as well as the currently predominant trend direction. So this indicator enables a trader to automatically display the high, low and direction of the current outside bar from two different (usually higher) timeframes and therefore gives rationally and automatically derived support and resistance levels as well as the predominant trend direction from the chosen timeframes. The adjustable crossing EMA with its volatility noise filter gives further guidance on the current trend direction and strength. The WTS can help traders and investors following a rule based system by providing a measure of trend strength and consistency as well as specific support and resistance levels.

[CP]Pivot Boss Floor Pivots with ATR Dilation and Dynamic LevelsINTRODUCTION: Compared to all the Pivot Indicators available on Trading View Public Library, this Floor Pivots Indicator differentiates itself in two major original ways: Dilates the Pivot Support/Resistance Levels into Support/Resistance Bands based on volatility Displays the S/R Levels Dynamically , that is, only those levels will be shown that are close enough to the price resulting in much cleaner looking charts. There were a few features whose logic I had figured out, but I could not implement them due Pine Script’s Limitation (they should really work on increasing Pine Script’s capacity instead of adding more and more features to the language in order to make it look ‘better’): Showing multiple timeframe pivots at the same time (not possible due to Pine Script’s limitation on the ‘Max Number of Outputs’ ) Automatic Detection of highly profitable Double Hot Pivot Zones (DPZ), also due to the ‘Max Number of Outputs’ limit GENERAL USER INPUTS: Most of the settings are self-explanatory, however, a few of them need some explanation: Show Floor Pivots Dynamically – This will turn ON the dynamic pivot levels, please note that this function will work ONLY IN INTRADAY timeframes. Dynamic Pivot ATR Period – Period over which the ATR value is calculated to show the pivots dynamically. ATR Threshold for Dynamic Floor Pivots – Simply put, the indicator will start displaying Pivot Levels if they fall within the 2*ATR distance (default value) of the price. You can increase this number if the volatility increases and vice-versa. Use ATR to Dilate Intraday Pivot Levels – This will turn ON Floor Pivot Dilation, turning pivot ‘lines’ into ‘bands’ . ATR Dilation Factor – This number decides the width of the Pivot bands. Larger this number, thicker the bands. Typically, high volatility stocks will require a higher number. ATR Period – Same as Dynamic Pivot ATR Period, but for Pivot Level Dilation. INDICATOR USAGE EXAMPLES: This indicator works great in conjunction with my Pivot Boss Candlestick Scanner indicator. There are a lot of optimizations I have done in the code, although it looks trivial at first glance, but it's fairly complex. Feel free to use it and modify it as you wish. Here are a few examples where the indicator has shown great entries and exits, with the default settings: NIFTY 5m Chart Reliance 5m Chart Tesla 5m Chart Bitcoin-USDT 15m Chart FINAL WORDS: Please understand that I have Cherry Picked the examples to showcase the capability of the indicator and its usage. DO NOT conflate the accuracy of examples with the accuracy of this indicator. Once you start using floor pivots, you will realize that a lot of days simply don’t give any high probability setups and you will simply sit out of the market and do nothing (which is a good thing). If you really want to learn how to use Pivots, read the book ’Secrets of a Pivot Boss’ . This book can change your life.

RSI c/w MA, ADX and ATR data I have added 3 items to the RSI indicator which helps me to get more information at the same time. 1) ADX value - when ADX is above 25 we have a strong trend 2) ATR Value - helps me to calculate my daily targets and stop-loss levels at a glance. 3) A simple moving average - This shows me the trend of RSI. If the price breaks a trend line and at the same time RSI crosses above the MA, it shows me a breakout has happened. In longer timeframes, it can show you in advance if you should expect a reversal in the trend. You can turn on or off the MA as well as the ADX line.

Bjorgum AutoTrailOne Time Trade Risk Management Incorporating the new interactive feature, this script is meant as a one time trailing stop for the active trader to manage positional risk of an ongoing trade. As a crypto trader or Fx trader, many may find themselves in a position late into the evening, or perhaps daily life is calling while a trade progresses in their favor. Adding a trailing stop to a position thats trending can help to keep you in the trade and lock in gains if things turn around when you are unable to react. To use the trail, the user would add the script to the chart. Once added, a set of crosshairs will appear allowing the user to choose a point to begin. Often choosing to start a trail from a swing high/ low can be an ideal option. This tends to provide some protection for a stop by placing it under support for a long trade or above resistance for a short trade. Price based trail The trail will automatically plot and the offset is a factor of the distance from price action selected by the crosshairs. If placed above price action the script will plot a short trail, if placed below it will trail for a long position. Additionally, there are several other trail types other than price based. There is also percent based, which offsets the trail as a percent from close. A hard stop is placed at the cross hair value, then once the distance is exceeded by the percentage specified, the trail begins. There are 2 more volatility based trails. There is a PSAR trail which can provide quicker and tighter stops that accelerate with the trend locking in gains faster, and an ATR trail that keeps a distance from price action as a function of volatility. Volatility levels can be adjusted from the menu. Volatility based trail (ATR) Volatility based trail (PSAR) Lastly, within the code for more the more technical savvy, is some starting setups for string alerts to be sent to exchanges via 3rd party or custom API applications. Some string manipulation is required for specific providers to meet their requirements, but there is some building block alerts that will take the ticker symbol, recognize the asset your trading (Fx, Crypto, etc) and take input quantity or exchange names from the settings via inputs. Complex strings can be built to perform almost any trade related task when to comes to alerts via web hook. A little setup this way with some technology to back your system can mean a semi-automated half man, half machine setup that actually manages your trail stop while you cannot. For those that don’t go this far, there is some basic alert functionality that well trigger when a trail is hit so you can react and make a decision. Please note that for now, interactive mode is engaged only when the script is added to the chart. Additional stops, or for adjustments to be made it is best to add a new version. Also as real trades could be at play managing an actual position, alerts are designed to go off only once to ensure no duplicate orders are sent meaning alerts are not reoccurring. Once an alert is triggered, a new trail is to be set up. A modified version of the TradingView built in SAR equation was used in this script. To provide the value of the SAR on the stop candle, it was necessary to alter the equation to extract this value as the regular SAR “flips” at this point. Thank you to TradingView for supplying access to the built in formula so that this SAR could behave the same as the built-in function outside of these alterations Example of SAR value maintained in trigger candle Cheers and happy trading.

Weekly Put SaleWeekly Put Sale This study is a tool I use for selling weekly puts at the suggested strike prices. 1. The suggested strike prices are based on the weekly high minus an ATR multiple which can be adjusted in the settings 2. You can also adjust the settings to Monthly strike prices if you prefer selling options further out 3. I suggest looking for Put sale premium that is between 0.25% to 0.75% of the strike price for weekly Puts and 1% to 3% of the strike price for monthly Puts Disclaimers: Selling Puts is an advanced strategy that is risky if you are not prepared to acquire the stock at the strike price you sell at on the expiration date. You must make your own decisions as you will bear the risks associated with any trades you place. To sum it up, trading is risky, and do so at your own risk.
