ADR Checker - Breakouts📈 ADR Checker – Breakouts
Gain the edge by knowing when a stock has already made its move.
🚀 What It Does:
The ADR Checker - Breakouts is a powerful yet simple visual tool that helps traders instantly assess whether a stock has already exceeded its Average Daily Range (ADR) for the day — a critical piece of information for momentum traders, swing traders, and especially those following breakout, VCP, or CANSLIM strategies.
Using a customizable on-screen table that always stays in view (regardless of zoom or chart scaling), this script shows:
✅ Average ADR% – 20-day average range, calculated in %.
📊 Today’s Move – how much the stock has moved today.
🔥 % of Avg ADR – today's move relative to its historical average, with live color feedback:
🟥 Over 100% (Overextended – danger!)
🟧 70-100% (Caution zone)
🟩 Below 70% (Room to move)
💡 Why It Matters:
One of the most overlooked mistakes by breakout traders is entering a trade after the move has already happened. If a stock has already moved more than its typical daily range, the odds of further continuation sharply decrease, while the risk of pullback or chop increases.
With this tool, you can:
🚫 Avoid chasing extended breakouts
🎯 Time entries before the real move
⚠️ Quickly assess risk/reward potential intraday
🧠 Example Use Case:
Imagine you're watching a classic VCP setup or flat base breakout. The stock breaks out on volume—but when you check this indicator, you see:
Today’s Move: 7.2%
Avg ADR: 5.3%
% of ADR: 135% 🟥
This tells you the stock is already well beyond its average daily range. While it may continue higher, odds now favor a consolidation, shakeout, or pullback. This is your cue to wait for a better entry or pass entirely.
On the flip side, if the breakout just started and the % of ADR is still under 50%, you have confirmation that there’s room to run — giving you more confidence to enter early.
⚙️ Fully Customizable:
Choose position on screen (top/bottom left/right)
Customize text color, background, and size
🔧 Install This Tool and:
✅ Stop chasing extended moves
✅ Add discipline to your entries
✅ Improve your breakout win rate
Perfect for VCP, CANSLIM, and BREAKOUT traders who want a clean, edge-enhancing visual guide.

Follow Through Day (FTD) + Sweep [TrendX_]The Follow Through Day (FTD) + Sweep indicator is a Trend-following tool mixing William O'Neil's original FTD concept and Liquidity concept. This indicator helps you identify potential subsequent bullish trends with greater precision by combining volume analysis, price action, and liquidity concepts.
💎 FEATURES
Follow Through Day Candle (FTD Candle)
The FTD, pioneered by William O'Neil, serves as a reliable signal for identifying the beginning of new bull markets. It's particularly valuable because it combines multiple market factors - price action, volume, and timing - to confirm genuine market reversals rather than temporary bounces.
The power of the FTD lies in its ability to distinguish between ordinary market fluctuations and significant trend changes. By requiring specific criteria to be met across multiple sessions, it helps filter out false signals and identifies high-probability reversal points where institutional investors are likely beginning to accumulate positions.
Sweep Area
The Sweep area feature enhances the traditional FTD concept by incorporating modern liquidity analysis. This overlay identifies zones where large market participants are likely to trigger stop losses before continuing the trend. These areas often represent optimal entry points for traders looking to join the new uptrend with reduced risk.
🔎 BREAKDOWN
FTD Candle
The FTD formation process occurs in two distinct phases: Setup and Completion.
Setup Phase
Strong Market Decline
The market must first experience a significant downtrend
This selling pressure helps clear out weak hands and creates oversold conditions
The decline creates the potential energy for a powerful reversal
First Recovery Session
Marks the initial sign of buying pressure emerging
Often characterized by a strong reversal candle
Represents the first indication that selling pressure may be exhausting
Recovery Confirmation
The second and third days must maintain prices above the new pivot low
This consolidation period helps confirm the validity of the initial bounce
Shows that sellers are no longer in control of price action
Completion Phase:
Supply Test Session
Low volume indicates diminishing selling pressure
Price remains above the pivot low
Creates the foundation for institutional buyers to begin accumulating
Breakout Day
Price increase exceeds average profit of bullish candles
Volume increases by at least 15% compared to previous session
Shows strong institutional commitment to the new uptrend
Timing Window
Must occur between the 4th and 8th candle after First Recovery Session
This specific timing helps confirm the sustainability of the reversal
Based on O'Neil's research of historical market bottoms
FTD Sweep
The Post-FTD Phase introduces the Sweep concept, which is crucial for understanding how large market participants operate. This feature leverages the liquidity concept because institutional traders often need to trigger stop losses to accumulate larger positions at better prices. This helps:
Create liquidity pools for large position entries
Shake out weak hands before continuing the trend
Test the strength of the new trend by absorbing selling pressure
⚙️ USAGE
Sweep + TP & SL Strategy
Example: BTCUSDT (1D) - Replay back to 9th November 2024
After an FTD candle forms, traders can adopt a systematic approach to enhance their trading strategy. First, they should determine the swing range and convert the post-FTD zone into concrete stop loss and take profit levels, which are based on the price action during the FTD formation. Next, traders should wait for a sweep formation, as this indicates that institutional players are accumulating positions. A quick price rejection from the sweep level should be observed before executing an entry.
The reasoning behind this strategy is rooted in market microstructure. By waiting for the sweep, traders position themselves alongside institutional players who need to build large positions without causing adverse price movement. The sweep creates the liquidity they need, and the subsequent move often represents the true trend continuation.
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. Therefore, one should always exercise caution and judgment when making decisions based on past performance.
Earnings Gap UpsBased on research conducted by John Pocorobba and Jason Thompson, the Earnings Gap Ups Indicator is designed to identify three types of earnings gaps, key levels, and the "alpha window"—a period when stocks often outperform following a gap. These gaps are frequently observed in high-performing stocks.
What is an Earnings Gap?
An earnings gap occurs when a stock's price makes a significant jump, after the company reports earnings signifying the street (institutions) were caught off guard.
The three different types of gaps are as follows: [/b
PEG (Power Earnings Gap)
Price gain of 10% or more
Volume is greater than 200% above the 50-day average
EPS surprise of at least 20%
Monster Gap
Price gain of 20% or more
Volume is greater than 300% above the 50-day average
No fundamental requirement
Monster Peg
Price Gain of 20% or more
Volume is greater than 300% above the 50-day average
EPS surprise of at least 20%
Key Levels and the Alpha Window
In addition to spotting these gaps, the indicator marks key levels on the chart and extends them through the alpha window, which represents the time period when the stock tends to outperform after the gap.
Key levels include:
High volume close: The closing price on a day with unusually high trading volume
High volume close minus 5%: A potential support level below the high volume close
Gap day high: The highest price reached on the gap day
Gap day low: The lowest price reached on the gap day
By understanding and tracking these gaps and levels, traders can map out a playbook for trading earnings gaps.
Equity CurveAn equity curve is a graphical representation of the change in the value of a trading account over a time period. The equity curve is a direct reflection of a trading strategy's effectiveness. A consistently upward-trending equity curve indicates a successful strategy, while a flat or declining curve may signal the need for adjustment.
This indicator takes traders daily account values as a comma separated list, and creates an equity curve and simple moving average of the equity curve. This serves as a mirror reflecting the outcome of past actions and decisions, guiding traders in fine-tuning their strategies, managing risk more effectively, and ultimately striving towards a consistently profitable trading journey.
New equity values should be added to the end of the current list. A space or no space after the comma has no effect.
Importance of the Equity Curve
Strategy Evaluation: The equity curve is a direct reflection of a trading strategy's effectiveness over time. A consistently upward-trending equity curve indicates a successful strategy, while a flat or declining curve may signal the need for adjustment.
Risk Management: Monitoring the equity curve helps traders to see the impact of their risk management practices. Sudden drops in equity could highlight instances of excessive risk-taking or inadequate stop-loss settings.
Performance Benchmarks: Comparing the equity curve against benchmarks or desired performance goals allows traders to assess if they are meeting, exceeding, or falling short of their trading objectives.
Psychology: Trading is as much about psychology as it is about strategy. A visual representation of one's equity curve helps maintain discipline, encouraging adherence to a trading plan during downturns and preventing overconfidence during upswings.
Having this data visually allows traders to see which category of trader they fall into.
Unprofitable
Boom or Bust
Profitable
Statistical Data
The indicator not only plots the equity curve and moving average, but includes the option to display the highest value reached by the equity curve, the percentage difference from the peak, and performance over selected periods (All Time, YTD, QTD, MTD, WTD).
Historical Analysis
The Equity Curve Indicator is not just a tool for real-time monitoring of trading performance; it also serves as a powerful instrument for conducting historical analysis. By analyzing the equity curve in conjunction with historical market conditions, traders can identify patterns or triggers that resulted in significant gains or losses.
For example, the chart below shows the equity curve overlaid on periods of net new highs / lows. The equity curve experienced declines while the market was showing net new lows or choppy periods (represented by a red or white background), while most of the equity gains were made while net new highs were present (green background).
This retrospective analysis helps in understanding how different market conditions impact trading strategies and performance.
Trading the Equity Curve
All trading strategies produce an equity curve that has winning and losing periods. In the example above, the trader could introduce a simple rule to lighten up on long positions or move to cash during periods of net new lows.
Another simple rule could be introduced to stop trading if the equity curve falls below the moving average, until favorable market conditions return again.
This indicator is intended to be used on the daily timeframe.
Danger Signals from The Trading MindwheelThe " Danger Signals " indicator, a collaborative creation from the minds at Amphibian Trading and MARA Wealth, serves as your vigilant lookout in the volatile world of stock trading. Drawing from the wisdom encapsulated in "The Trading Mindwheel" and the successful methodologies of legends like William O'Neil and Mark Minervini, this tool is engineered to safeguard your trading journey.
Core Features:
Real-Time Alerts: Identify critical danger signals as they emerge in the market. Whether it's a single day of heightened risk or a pattern forming, stay informed with specific danger signals and a tally of signals for comprehensive decision-making support. The indicator looks for over 30 different signals ranging from simple closing ranges to more complex signals like blow off action.
Tailored Insights with Portfolio Heat Integration: Pair with the "Portfolio Heat" indicator to customize danger signals based on your current positions, entry points, and stops. This personalized approach ensures that the insights are directly relevant to your trading strategy. Certain signals can have different meanings based on where your trade is at in its lifecycle.

Forward-Looking Analysis: Leverage the 'Potential Danger Signals' feature to assess future risks. Enter hypothetical price levels to understand potential market reactions before they unfold, enabling proactive trade management.
The indicator offers two different modes of 'Potential Danger Signals', Worst Case or Immediate. Worst Case allows the user to input any price and see what signals would fire based on price reaching that level, while the Immediate mode looks for potential Danger Signals that could happen on the next bar.
This is achieved by adding and subtracting the average daily range to the current bars close while also forecasting the next values of moving averages, vwaps, risk multiples and the relative strength line to see if a Danger Signal would trigger.
User Customization: Flexibility is at your fingertips with toggle options for each danger signal. Tailor the indicator to match your unique trading style and risk tolerance. No two traders are the same, that is why each signal is able to be turned on or off to match your trading personality.
Versatile Application: Ideal for growth stock traders, momentum swing traders, and adherents of the CANSLIM methodology. Whether you're a novice or a seasoned investor, this tool aligns with strategies influenced by trading giants.
Validation and Utility:
Inspired by the trade management principles of Michael Lamothe, the " Danger Signals " indicator is more than just a tool; it's a reflection of tested strategies that highlight the importance of risk management. Through rigorous validation, including the insights from "The Trading Mindwheel," this indicator helps traders navigate the complexities of the market with an informed, strategic approach.
Whether you're contemplating a new position or evaluating an existing one, the " Danger Signals " indicator is designed to provide the clarity needed to avoid potential pitfalls and capitalize on opportunities with confidence. Embrace a smarter way to trade, where awareness and preparation open the door to success.
Let's dive into each of the components of this indicator.
Volume: Volume refers to the number of shares or contracts traded in a security or an entire market during a given period. It is a measure of the total trading activity and liquidity, indicating the overall interest in a stock or market.
Price Action: the analysis of historical prices to inform trading decisions, without the use of technical indicators. It focuses on the movement of prices to identify patterns, trends, and potential reversal points in the market.
Relative Strength Line: The RS line is a popular tool used to compare the performance of a stock, typically calculated as the ratio of the stock's price to a benchmark index's price. It helps identify outperformers and underperformers relative to the market or a specific sector. The RS value is calculated by dividing the close price of the chosen stock by the close price of the comparative symbol (SPX by default).
Average True Range (ATR): ATR is a market volatility indicator used to show the average range prices swing over a specified period. It is calculated by taking the moving average of the true ranges of a stock for a specific period. The true range for a period is the greatest of the following three values:
The difference between the current high and the current low.
The absolute value of the current high minus the previous close.
The absolute value of the current low minus the previous close.
Average Daily Range (ADR): ADR is a measure used in trading to capture the average range between the high and low prices of an asset over a specified number of past trading days. Unlike the Average True Range (ATR), which accounts for gaps in the price from one day to the next, the Average Daily Range focuses solely on the trading range within each day and averages it out.
Anchored VWAP: AVWAP gives the average price of an asset, weighted by volume, starting from a specific anchor point. This provides traders with a dynamic average price considering both price and volume from a specific start point, offering insights into the market's direction and potential support or resistance levels.
Moving Averages: Moving Averages smooth out price data by creating a constantly updated average price over a specific period of time. It helps traders identify trends by flattening out the fluctuations in price data.
Stochastic: A stochastic oscillator is a momentum indicator used in technical analysis that compares a particular closing price of an asset to a range of its prices over a certain period of time. The theory behind the stochastic oscillator is that in a market trending upwards, prices will tend to close near their high, and in a market trending downwards, prices close near their low.
While each of these components offer unique insights into market behavior, providing sell signals under specific conditions, the power of combining these different signals lies in their ability to confirm each other's signals. This in turn reduces false positives and provides a more reliable basis for trading decisions
These signals can be recognized at any time, however the indicators power is in it's ability to take into account where a trade is in terms of your entry price and stop.
If a trade just started, it hasn’t earned much leeway. Kind of like a new employee that shows up late on the first day of work. It’s less forgivable than say the person who has been there for a while, has done well, is on time, and then one day comes in late.
Contextual Sensitivity:
For instance, a high volume sell-off coupled with a bearish price action pattern significantly strengthens the sell signal. When the price closes below an Anchored VWAP or a critical moving average in this context, it reaffirms the bearish sentiment, suggesting that the momentum is likely to continue downwards.
By considering the relative strength line (RS) alongside volume and price action, the indicator can differentiate between a normal retracement in a strong uptrend and a when a stock starts to become a laggard.
The integration of ATR and ADR provides a dynamic framework that adjusts to the market's volatility. A sudden increase in ATR or a character change detected through comparing short-term and long-term ADR can alert traders to emerging trends or reversals.
The "Danger Signals" indicator exemplifies the power of integrating diverse technical indicators to create a more sophisticated, responsive, and adaptable trading tool. This approach not only amplifies the individual strengths of each indicator but also mitigates their weaknesses.

Power OutageThe Power Outage indicator serves as the antithesis to the Power Trend, highlighting periods of extreme weakness or downtrends. Drawing inspiration from the Power Trend, the Power Outage framework was conceived by reversing the logic to highlight periods where being in cash or net short could be beneficial.
What Initiates a Power Outage?
The high is below the 21-day EMA for at least 10 consecutive days.
The 21-day EMA is below the 50-day SMA for a minimum of five days.
The 50-day SMA is on a downward trajectory.
The closing price is lower than the previous day's close.
A Power Outage can be a caution sign for traders to tighten up risk management and encourage defensive strategies or the consideration of short positions. Not only does this indicator clearly identify a Power Outage by a shaded background or shape plotted on the chart, but it also records metrics for each previous Power Outage.
The number of Power Outages that have occurred, their average length, and average depth (from the first day's close when the Power Outage activates to the low of the Power Outage) are all displayed to help assess the condition of the current Power Outage.
What Ends a Power Outage?
A Power Outage ends when the 21-day EMA crosses above the 50-day SMA, or when the price closes 10% above the recent low and above the 50-day SMA.
This indicator is designed to be viewed on a daily time frame.

Flag FinderFlag Finder Indicator is a technical analysis tool to identify bull and bear flags.
What are flags
Flags are continuation patterns that occur within the general trend of the security. A bull flag represents a temporary pause or consolidation before price resumes it's upward movement, while a bear flag occurs before price continues its downward movement.
Both flag patterns consist of two components:
The Pole
The Flag
The pole is the initial strong upward surge or decline that precedes the flag. The pole is usually a fast move accompanied by heavy volume signaling significant buying or selling pressure.
The flag is then formed as price consolidates after the initial surge or decline from the pole. For a bull flag price will drift slightly downward to sideways, a bear flag will drift upward to sideways. The best flags often see volume dry up during this phase of the pattern.
Indicator Settings
Both components are fully customizable in the indicator so the user can adjust for any time frame or volatility. Select the minimum and maximum accepted limits from the % gain loss required for the pole, the maximum acceptable flag depth or rally and the minimum and maximum number of bars for each component.
Colors and what components are visible at any time are also user controlled.
Trading flags
Traders typically use flags to enter on breakouts. A breakout occurs when price moves above the left side high of a bull flag or below the left side low of a bear flag.
Alerts
The Flag Finder allows for four different types of alerts
New Bull Flag
New Bear Flag
Bull Flag Breakout
Bear Flag Breakout
Pine Script
On top of the indicator identifying bull and bear flags, throughout the source code I left notes on nearly every line to help anyone who is interested in pine script see my thought process and explain which each line of code does. This code isn't too complex, but it offers a look into many different concepts one might use when writing pinescript such as:
input groups
declaring and reassigning variables

Webby's Tight IndicatorWebby's Tight Indicator is used to measure a securities volatility relative to itself over time. This is achieved by taking the average of three short term ATR's (average true range) and creating a ratio versus three longer term ATR's.
Mike Webster recently stated he is using the 3,5,8 for the short term ATR's and the 55,89,144 for the long term ATR's. All of the ATR lengths are part of the Fibonacci sequence.
The ratio of the ATR's is then calculated and plotted as a histogram with 0 representing the ATR's being equal. As a stocks short term ATR contracts the histogram will rise above 0 meaning volatility in the short term is contracting relative to long term volatility. On the other hand if the short ATR's are expanding versus the long term ATR's the histogram will fall below 0 and turn red, signifying short term volatility is greater than long term volatility.
The easy visualization of this indicator allows you to quickly see when a stock is in a tight range and could be ready for a potential breakout to the long side or breakdown to the short side.
In this example we see tight price action with a blue histogram followed by volatility to the upside coinciding with a breakout.
In this example we see volatility expanding as a stock continues to fall.
To help differentiate between trending contraction or expansion and just short term blips 5-day exponential moving average of the ratio is also plotted on the histogram and dynamically changes colors as it rises and falls.
Indicator options include:
Change histogram colors
Choose ema line width
Webby's RS LineThe Relative Strength (RS) line is something many investors are familiar with. It is used to measure a stocks performance versus the S&P 500 and is typically calculated by dividing the closing price of the stock by the closing price of the S&P. This means if a stock moves up and the S&P moves down or the stock moves up more than the S&P the RS line will increase, if the stock moves down while the S&P moves up the line will decrease.
While the standard RS line is a powerful tool, Mike Webster recently discussed how he has made changes to the standard RS line and also uses a 21 exponential moving average of the RS line to help guide his decision making. This script puts those new twists on the standard RS line, by first calculating the RS line using the low of both the security and the S&P rather than the closing prices. Next it measures the 21-day exponential moving average of the RS line and plots the distance between the two as a histogram.
A strong trending stock that is out performing the market will see an extended period of a positive blue histogram signifying the RS line is above the 21-ema.
While on the other hand a stock in a downtrend that is underperforming will see a negative red histogram a red histogram signifying the RS line is below the 21-ema.
On top of all of that, the indicator also keeps 3 & 13 exponential moving average of the distance between the RS line and the 21 ema to help identify shorter term relative strength and capture more immediate shifts in momentum. Both of those are plotted on the histogram as well and will change color as they rise and fall making it easy to spot the direction.
Indicator options include:
Choose symbol to measure performance against
Change histogram colors
Choose ema line width
* Note this indicator does not plot the actual RS line, it is the histogram representing the distance between the RS line calculated using the lows and the 21 ema, as well as the two ema's of the relationship.
Webby % Off 52 WeekThis indicator measures a stocks distance from its 52 week high. The concept is based on what Mike Webster shared on his appearance on IBD Live, allowing users to see if a current pullback from the highs is normal compared to historical pullbacks or if more attention is warranted.
It is also important to pay attention to a stocks 52 week high in relation to it's current price to confirm trend, spot potential breakout levels or see if the high acts as an area of resistance.
The indicator has 3 different zones with shaded backgrounds to easily spot the distance off of the high.
Zones
Green Zone - 0 to 8% off highs
Yellow Zone - 8 to 15% off highs
Red Zone - 15 to 25% off highs
Similar Healthy Pullbacks
Possible concern as pullback undercuts previous pullback level
Webby's RSI 2.0Webby's RSI (Really Simple Indicator) 2.0 or version 5.150 as Mike himself calls it, builds upon the original Webby RSI by changing the way we measure extension from the 21-day exponential moving average.
Instead using the percentage of the low versus the 21-day exponential moving average, version 2 uses a multiple of the securities 50 day ATR (average true range) to determine the extension.
Version 2.0 also comes with some new additions, such as measuring the high vs 21-day exponential moving average when a security is below it, as well as an ATR extension from the 10-day simple moving average that Mike looks to as a guide to take partials.
RS RatingHello everyone.
The RS Rating (or Relative Strenght Rating) is a metric that tracks a stock's price performance relative to the rest of the market. Specifically, it looks at a stock's relative strength over the last 52 weeks.
It allows you to identify at a glance stocks that are outperforming the market and may be poised for further gains.
Designed for break-out traders, trend follower, value investors, the RS Rating can help you identify promising opportunities and make informed investment decisions.
The Rating stands as follow:
- From 1 (worst) to 99 (best)
- 99 rating means the stock is outperforming 99% of all stocks in terms of relative share price performance over the last 52 weeks.
The RS Rating is accompanied by the RS line which is a representation of the progress of the asset against the comparative symbol. (Here SP500)
Of course this script is inspired by the IBD rating system.
The results may be equivalent but it is not guaranteed.
This indicator proposes a scoring system in the style of the one proposed by IBD.
Indeed for an optimal result, it would be necessary to compare the relative performance of all actions, which is not yet possible on PineScript.
Here is the formula for calculating the score:
RS Score = 40% * P3 + 20% * P6 + 20% * P9 + 20% * P12
With
P3 = Performance over the last 3 months
P6 = Performance over the last 6 months
P9 = Performance over the last 9 months
P12 = Performance over the last 12 months
There is no equivalent solution for the moment on TradingView.
The rating score will only appear on the daily timeframe.
For now it's my pleasure to share!
WON WeekliesWilliam O'Neil was a big proponent of using weekly charts, often highlighting the significance of 3 or more tight weekly closes, or a sequence of five or more consecutive up weeks. This indicator recognizes both of these conditions providing clear visual cues to signify this institutional buying activity. When three tight weekly closes or more occur a circle will be drawn around the middle close or the background will change color, depending on user preference. If five or more consecutive up weeks are detected a box is drawn around all the price action of those weeks.
User Options:
- Choose to display both or only one condition
- Customizable colors
- Define what a tight close is (default is less than 1.5%)
- Change background color or display smaller circles for 3 weeks tight
- Alerts for both
Note: 5 weekly closes wont print until the 5th weeks candle is closed.
Extended from Moving AverageThis indicator helps avoid chasing extended stocks by showing every time a stock is too far extended from a selected moving average.
Features:
✔️ selectable moving average and source (high, low, close)
✔️ choose to plot or hide the moving average
✔️ selectable distance to be considered too extended
EPS & SalesHi everyone,
I just adapted a little utility script to visualise EPS % increase (quarters vs Year -1) and sales.
I used the code from @ARUN_SAXENA and modified it to fix what I saw as issues.
(Using base 3M instead of 1M +
request.earnings(syminfo.tickerid, earnings.actual, ignore_invalid_symbol=true)
instead of
request.financial(syminfo.tickerid, "EARNINGS_PER_SHARE", "FQ")
Data will differ from MarketSmith because they use sometimes actual EPS sometimes standard, but think we can at least trust what we see in term of %
The tool is far from being perfect !
3 Weeks Tight - CANSLIM Technical Indicator3 Weeks Tight - Introduction
3 weeks tight is a bullish continuation pattern discovered by IBD's founder, William O'Neil.
The pattern can used as an opportunity to add to an existing position as it often occurs after a breakout above a cup with handle or other technical pattern.
The 3 weeks tight pattern forms when a stock closes within approximately 1% to 1.5% of the prior week's close for at least two weeks. The reason for the bullishness is that it indciates that investors who moved the stock upward in price since the breakout are not taking profits, the price is holding steady.
The buy point is just above the area of resistance formed at the highs of the three weeks plus 10 cents. The ten cent addition to the price is to ensure a push through the resistance at the high of the range.
Key Points:
It's preferred that closes for each week are in the upper half of the stock's range.
Ideally, volume will increase significantly as the stocks moves past the buy point.
This pattern generally performs best when the market is in an uptrend.
Features:
A configurable horizontal bar that spans the 3 week period.
A vertical band that highlights the tightness pattern.
A label to show the buy price after 3 week tight pattern.
Optional alert when the 3 weeks tight pattern is recognized.
Auto Flag Distribution DaysThis script automatically flags distribution days. Distribution days are defined as any day that is down -0.2% or greater on heavier volume than the previous day. Distribution days are counted on the major indexes (S&P 500, NASDAQ, NYSE, etc...) within the CANSLIM methodology.
