Daily Close GAP Detector [Yosiet]User Manual for "Daily Close GAP Detector "
Overview
This script is designed to help traders identify and react to significant gaps in daily market prices. It plots daily open and close prices and highlights significant gaps with a cross. The script is particularly useful for identifying potential breakouts or reversals based on these gaps.
Configuration
GAP Close Threshold: This input allows you to set a threshold for the gap size that you consider significant. The default value is 0.001.
Timeframe Seeker: This input lets you choose the timeframe for the gap detection. The default is 'D' for daily.
Features
Daily Open and Close Lines: The script plots daily open and close prices. If the close price is lower than the open price, the line is colored red; otherwise, it's green.
Gap Detection: It calculates the difference between the current day's close and the previous day's close, both adjusted for the selected timeframe. If this difference exceeds the threshold, it's considered a significant gap.
Significant Gap Indicator: A cross is plotted on the chart to indicate significant gaps. The color of the cross indicates whether the gap is a short or long gap: red for short gaps and green for long gaps.
Alert Conditions: The script sets up alert conditions for short and long gap breakouts. You can customize the alert messages to include details like the ticker symbol, interval, price, and exchange.
How to Use
Add the Script to Your Chart: Copy the script into the Pine Script editor on TradingView and add it to your chart.
Configure Inputs: Adjust the "GAP Close Threshold" and "Timeframe Seeker" inputs as needed.
Review the Chart: The script will overlay daily open and close prices on your chart, along with crosses indicating significant gaps.
Set Alerts: Use the script's alert conditions to set up alerts for short and long gap breakouts. You can customize the alert messages to suit your trading strategy.
Extending the Code
To extend this script, you can modify the gap detection logic, add more indicators, or integrate it with other scripts for a more comprehensive trading strategy. Remember to test any changes thoroughly before using them in live trading.
Daily Number/Trend Reversal IndicatorIndicator identifies potential price trend exhaustion.
Compares this period against the 4th prior period for the condition.
9 periods (or more) with the same condition is an indicator that the trend is ending soon.
Daily Session Windows background highlight indicatorIn intraday studies of stock indexes and Forex I have this weird habit of highlighting premarket, core session, lunch break and extended session with different backgrounds. If done by hand, this is tedious work that has to be repeated daily.
I think this feature should be built-in in TradingView. But it isn't.
For a few months now, I have been using this tiny indicator that does precisely that job. It saved me literally hours of focus time and mistakes. I have decided to revamp it and release it. I'm sure it can be useful to others.
Features:
Background color highlighting for premarket , core session , lunch hour and extended session of the trading day.
Session timing preset to match US session, but can be customized.
Can be enabled or disabled on a day of the week basis, including week-end.
Timezone is selectable, matches the chart's instrument but can be set independently to track a different timezone.
Not affected by the timezone you decided to assign to the chat's time scale.
Ready for stock indexes, but can be used to highlight Forex sessions too.
Daily Levels Suite + Market BreadthThere are many levels suites out there but many of them use the line series and/or label series to create multiple levels. Pine v5 provides the capability to use line arrays and labels so I wanted to create some code that is extensible to add additional lines/levels and labels to an array of lines with very little effort.
There is also some Market Breadth info that can be shown in the corners of the chart to allow a user to understand how the broader markets are moving compared to the security they are charting.
Current Levels provided are as follows:
Today's Open
Previous Days Close
Previous Days High/Low
Previous Days 50%
T+2 High/Low
All levels and the market breadth table is configurable to be hidden or shown based upon the user's desire.
Daily/Weekly Wick (Shadow) Range📈 Detailed Guide to the Daily/Weekly Wick (Shadow) Range Indicator
This indicator is a powerful visualization tool designed to map the key price levels established during the previous trading period (either the previous day or the previous week). Instead of just showing a single line for the high and low, it highlights the entire range of the upper and lower wicks (shadows), representing the "battleground" where buyers and sellers were most active.
How It Works
The Wick (Shadow) Range indicator fetches the Open, High, Low, and Close data from the last completed daily or weekly candle and projects those levels onto your current chart. This creates two distinct colored zones.
Upper Wick (Green Zone): This area spans from the Previous High down to the top of the Previous Candle's Body. It visually represents the territory where sellers successfully pushed the price down from its peak. This entire zone can be considered a resistance area.
Lower Wick (Red Zone): This area spans from the bottom of the Previous Candle's Body down to the Previous Low. It shows where buyers stepped in to defend a price level and push it back up. This entire zone can be considered a support area.
How to Use It in Your Trading
This indicator isn't meant to give direct buy or sell signals on its own. Instead, it provides crucial context about market structure. Here are several ways to incorporate it into your strategy:
1. Identifying Key Support & Resistance
This is the indicator's primary function. The most significant levels are:
Key Resistance: The top edge of the green zone (the previous period's high).
Key Support: The bottom edge of the red zone (the previous period's low).
Look for the current price to react when it approaches these boundaries. These are high-probability areas for price to pause or reverse.
2. Watching for Price Rejection (Reversal Trading)
The colored zones are perfect for spotting rejection signals.
Bearish Rejection 📉: If the current price enters the green zone but fails to stay there, closing back below it (often forming a new wick), it's a strong sign that sellers are still in control at that level. This can be an excellent entry signal for a short position.
Bullish Rejection 📈: If the current price dips into the red zone and is quickly bought back up, it shows that buyers are actively defending that area. This can be a great entry signal for a long position.
3. Confirming Breakouts (Trend Trading)
The zones also help validate breakouts.
Bullish Breakout: If the price pushes decisively through the entire green zone and closes above the previous high, it signals that the previous resistance has been broken and the trend may continue upward.
Bearish Breakdown: If the price falls decisively through the entire red zone and closes below the previous low, it confirms that support has failed and the price may continue downward.
4. Setting Context with Timeframes
Weekly Setting: Use the "Weekly" option to identify major, significant support and resistance levels that can influence the market for the entire week. These are powerful levels for swing trading.
Daily Setting: Use the "Daily" option for intraday trading. The previous day's high and low are critical pivot points that many day traders watch.
⚙️ Indicator Settings
The indicator has one simple setting, which you can access by clicking the gear icon ⚙️ next to its name on the chart.
Select Wick Timeframe: This dropdown menu allows you to switch the indicator's calculation between the Daily and Weekly timeframe instantly.
Daily ADR TableDaily ADR Table Indicator
The Daily Average Daily Range (ADR) Table displays real-time volatility statistics directly on your chart. It shows both the current day's range and the historical average daily range as percentages of the current price, providing essential volatility metrics for trading decisions.
The indicator tracks today's range in real-time throughout the trading session using session-based calculations to ensure accuracy. It compares this against a customizable historical average (default 20 days, adjustable from 1-500 days) to help traders assess whether current volatility is above or below normal levels.
All values are displayed as percentages for easy comparison across different price levels and formatted to two decimal places for precision. The table position, text size, alignment, and colors are fully customizable with nine position options and professional default styling optimized for readability.
This indicator is valuable for day traders, swing traders, and market analysts who need to quickly assess current market volatility relative to historical norms. It assists in position sizing decisions, setting stop losses, and identifying potential breakout or consolidation scenarios based on range expansion or contraction.

Daily ATR Bonanza: Expected Moves - Tr33man Daily ATR Bonanza: Expected Moves
Overview 🤷♂️
The Daily ATR Bonanza script is a powerful trading tool designed to help traders visualize and understand potential price movements using the Average True Range (ATR). It provides daily and weekly ATR levels, historical statistics, and conditional probability analysis to give traders actionable insights. The script also plots the daily Keltner channel. This script is ideal for traders who want to gauge volatility, identify key levels, and make data-driven decisions.
b]Key Features:
📈 1. Daily and Weekly ATR Levels
🔵ATR Levels: The script calculates and displays ATR-based levels for the day and week. These levels are derived from the previous day's or week's close price and are adjusted using customizable multipliers (0.5x, 1x, and 1.5x by default).
🔵You can choose the number of ATR levels (1, 2, or 3) and adjust the multipliers to suit your trading strategy.
🌐 2. ATR Bands (Keltner Channels)
🔵The script includes an option to display ATR Bands, which are volatility-based envelopes around a moving average. These bands help identify overbought and oversold conditions.
🔵You can adjust the ATR multiplier and the length of the moving average used for the bands.
🧮 3. Historical Statistics and Conditional Probability
🔵 Historical Analysis: The script analyzes historical price movements to calculate the likelihood of closing at certain ATR levels.
🔵 Conditional Probability: This feature shows the probability of the price reaching specific ATR levels given the current market conditions. The conditional matches historical data by an open in the same opening ATR bucket, as well as the current price bucket having been visited in the historical case. Conditional probabilities are just statistics, and do not predict anything.
Data Table: 📚
🔵 Historical Close Probability: The percentage of days the price closed within each ATR level.
🔵 Conditional Close Probability: The likelihood of the price closing within each ATR level today.
❓ What is Conditional Probability? ❓
Conditional probability is a statistical measure that calculates the likelihood of an event occurring given that another event has already occurred. In this script, it is used to determine the probability of the price reaching specific ATR levels based on the current opening range as well as current ATR distance from the previous close.
For example:
If the market opens near the lower end of the first ATR level, the script calculates the likelihood of the price reaching the upper end of the first, second, or third ATR level.
This analysis is based on historical data, making it a powerful tool for understanding potential price movements.
🌟 Understanding the Levels
🔵Daily Levels: These are based on the previous day's close price and ATR. They are updated at the start of each new day.
🔵Weekly Levels: These are based on the previous week's close price and ATR. They are updated at the start of each new week.
🔵ATR Bands: These are dynamic levels that adjust with market volatility.
🔬 Analyze the Statistics (Daily only for now, no weekly yet)
🔵Use the interactive table to understand historical probabilities and conditional probabilities.
🔵Focus on the current opening range and the likelihood of reaching specific levels.
🧠 Make Trading Decisions
🔵Use the ATR levels and bands to identify key support and resistance levels.
🔵Use the conditional probability table to gauge the likelihood of reaching specific targets.
🔵Adjust your strategy based on the historical performance of the market.
Example Use Cases
1. Day Trading
Use the daily ATR levels to set intraday targets and stop-loss levels.
Monitor the conditional probability table to adjust your expectations based on the opening range.
2. Swing Trading
Use the weekly ATR levels to identify longer-term support and resistance levels.
3. Scalping
Use the ATR bands to identify overbought and oversold conditions.
Use the conditional probability table to quickly assess the likelihood of price movements.

Daily Borders with Weekday Labels[fitfatq]Indicator Overview
This indicator displays daily vertical border lines and the previous day’s weekday label on intraday charts (i.e., charts with a timeframe lower than Daily). It draws a vertical line at the start of each new trading day and places a label displaying the previous day’s weekday (e.g., Monday) at the horizontal midpoint between the previous and the current day. Users can customize various visual aspects such as the separator line style and width, label style, text color, and text size. Additionally, the indicator offers an option to fix the label’s Y coordinate at a specified price level to prevent it from being overlapped by candlesticks.
Parameter Details
Use Fixed Weekday Label Y Coordinate
Type: Boolean
Default: false
Description: When enabled, the weekday label’s vertical position will be fixed at a specified price level (see next parameter). Otherwise, the label’s Y position is determined dynamically (typically based on the current bar’s low minus 3 ticks).
Fixed Weekday Label Y Coordinate (price)
Type: Float
Default: 130.0
Description:
This parameter sets the fixed price level at which the weekday label will be displayed if the "Use Fixed Weekday Label Y Coordinate" option is enabled. Please input a value that corresponds to your chart’s price scale (e.g., 130.50). Note: In charts with high price levels (for example, stocks trading at 3000 or above), it is recommended to set this value to 3000 or above. The higher the value, the closer the label will appear to the candlesticks.
Separator Line Style
Type: String (Options: "Solid", "Dotted", "Dashed")
Default: "Dotted"
Description: Specifies the style of the vertical separator line drawn at the start of each new day. "Solid" displays a continuous line, "Dotted" shows a dotted line, and "Dashed" provides a dashed line.
Separator Line Width
Type: Integer
Default: 1
Description: Determines the thickness of the separator line. A higher number results in a thicker line; the minimum value is 1.
Label Style
Type: String (Options: "None", "Label Up", "Label Down", "Label Left", "Label Right", "Label Center")
Default: "None"
Description: Sets the built-in style for the weekday label. "None" means no background or border (plain text only), while other options apply predefined visual effects.
Text Color
Type: Color
Default: Black
Description: Determines the text color of the weekday label.
Label Text Size
Type: String (Options: "Tiny", "Small", "Normal", "Large", "Huge")
Default: "Normal"
Description: Specifies the text size of the weekday label. Adjust according to preference to ensure the label is readable.
Usage Summary
How It Works:
The indicator detects the start of a new trading day using a change in the daily timeframe (via ta.change(time("D"))). When a new day begins, it draws a vertical separator line at the first bar of that day. If previous day data is available, the indicator calculates the horizontal midpoint between the start of the previous day and the current day and displays the previous day’s weekday label at that position. If the fixed Y coordinate option is enabled, the label is drawn at the specified price level; otherwise, it is positioned relative to the current bar’s low.
Customization:
Users can adjust all visual aspects, including the line style and width as well as the label style, text color, and text size. The fixed Y coordinate option allows the label’s vertical position to remain constant, which helps prevent overlapping with price bars.
Chart Requirement:
This indicator only operates on intraday charts (timeframes lower than Daily) and will not display on Daily or higher timeframe charts.

Daily Open Levels (Custom Pips)Daily Open Levels Indicator
Overview: The Daily Open Levels indicator is a simple but powerful tool designed for intraday traders who focus on the daily open price and pip-based levels for decision-making. This indicator helps you visualize key price levels based on the daily opening price, with configurable upper and lower levels calculated in pips. It is especially useful for tracking price movements relative to the previous day’s open and can help traders identify breakout zones, potential support/resistance, and key entry/exit points.
eatures:
Daily Open Price: The indicator automatically calculates and plots the daily open of the current trading day.
Upper and Lower Levels: Configurable upper and lower levels based on a user-defined pip interval. These levels can act as potential resistance or support zones.
Adjustable Pip Interval: You can customize the pip distance for the upper and lower levels to suit different trading styles and volatility.
Works for All Pairs: Option to automatically detect JPY pairs with a different pip value (0.1), or you can manually select your pair setting.
Color Customization: You can choose different colors for the daily open line, upper levels, and lower levels for easy visualization.
Immediate Visual Feedback: The indicator immediately draws the lines on the chart when added, without waiting for any market data.
How It Works:
The daily open price is retrieved from the current trading day, and horizontal lines are drawn at this price level, as well as at pip-based distances above and below it.
The pip distance is calculated using the Pip Interval setting and can be adjusted for any pair. For example, a 225-pip interval would create lines at 225 pips above and below the daily open.
The indicator dynamically updates every minute to reflect new daily opens and adjustments for each trading day.
Lines are drawn using the HLine (horizontal line) objects in MetaTrader 5, making them easy to spot and follow.
Parameters:
Pip Interval: Defines the pip distance for upper and lower levels (e.g., 225 pips). This affects how far above and below the daily open the levels are drawn.
Number of Levels: Sets how many upper and lower levels are drawn.
JPY Pairs: An option to adjust the pip value for JPY pairs (0.1 pip for JPY pairs vs. 0.01 pip for others).
Line Colors: Customize the colors for the daily open, upper levels, and lower levels.
Style & Width: Adjust the style (solid/dashed) and width of the lines to match your preferences.
Daily ProtractorDaily Protractor Indicator
Overview
The Daily Protractor is a visually intuitive tool designed for traders who want to analyze price action through angular measurements on a 5-minute chart. By overlaying a protractor on the chart, this indicator helps identify potential support, resistance, and trend directions based on angular relationships from the first 5-minute candle of each day. It’s particularly useful for intraday traders looking to incorporate geometric analysis into their strategies for spot or strike charts.
Key Features
Dynamic Protractor Overlay: Draws a protractor centered on the low of the first 5-minute candle of each day, with customizable radius in both bars (horizontal) and price units (vertical).
Angular Measurements: Displays angles in 5-degree increments, covering a full 360° circle or a 105° to -105° (91° to 269°) half-circle, depending on user preference.
Customizable Display:
Adjust the number of days to display protractors (up to 5 days).
Customize line colors for different angle ranges (0° to 180°, 180° to 360°, and 0° specifically).
Modify line thickness, label size, and label colors for better visibility.
Center Point Highlight: Marks the center of each protractor with a labeled point for easy reference.
Efficient Design:
Optimized with max_lines_count, max_labels_count, and max_bars_back to ensure smooth performance on TradingView.
How It Works
The indicator identifies the first 5-minute candle of each day and uses its low price as the center point for a protractor. It then draws lines at 5-degree intervals, radiating from the center, with each line representing an angle from 0° to 360°. Labels at the end of each line display the angle in degrees, with negative values shown for angles between 195° and 345° (e.g., 270° is displayed as -90°). The protractor’s radius can be adjusted in both time (bars) and price units, allowing traders to scale the tool to their chart’s characteristics.
Usage Instructions
Add to Chart:
Apply the indicator to a 5-minute chart of your chosen instrument (e.g., spot or strike charts).
Interpret the Protractor:
Use the angular lines to identify potential price levels or trend directions.
The 0° line (horizontal) can act as a reference for horizontal support/resistance.
Angles between 0° and 180° (upper half) and 180° and 360° (lower half) are color-coded for quick identification.
Customize Settings:
Toggle the Show 105° to -105° option to display a half-circle (91° to 269°) instead of a full 360° protractor.
Adjust the Radius in Bars and Radius in Price Units to scale the protractor to your chart.
Set the Maximum Days to Display to control how many daily protractors are shown.
Modify line thickness, colors, and label settings to suit your visual preferences.
Customization Options
Protractor Settings:
Show 105° to -105° (91° to 269°): Toggle between a full circle or a half-circle protractor.
Radius in Bars: Set the horizontal span of the protractor (default: 75 bars).
Radius in Price Units: Set the vertical span in price units (default: 1000.0).
Maximum Days to Display: Limit the number of protractors shown (default: 5 days).
Line Settings:
Line Thickness: Adjust the thickness of the protractor lines (1 or 2).
Line Color (0° to 180°): Color for the upper half (default: light blue).
Line Color (180° to 360°): Color for the lower half (default: light red).
Line Color (0°): Color for the 0° line (default: black).
Label Settings:
Label Size: Choose between small, normal, or large labels.
Label Color (0° to 180°): Color for labels in the upper half (default: red).
Label Color (180° to 360°): Color for labels in the lower half (default: green).
Notes
The indicator was designed with the help of Grok3 for use on 5-minute charts only, as it relies on the first 5-minute candle of the day to set the protractor’s center.
For best results, adjust the radius settings to match the volatility and price scale of your instrument. However, where the price is in single digits it is advised to switch off the labels or I would suggest not to use the same.
The protractor can be used alongside other technical tools to confirm trends, reversals, or key price levels.
Limitations: This cannot be used on instruments that trade for more than 75 candles with a timeframe of 5 minutes as the angles would not cover the entire trading window. I am working coming up with a script to address this limitation.
Feedback
I’d love to hear your thoughts! If you find the Daily Protractor helpful or have suggestions for improvements, please leave a comment or reach out. Happy trading!

Daily True Range (DTR) vs Average True Range (ATR)Overview
The "DTR vs ATR with Color-Coded Percentage" indicator is a powerful volatility analysis tool designed for traders who want to understand daily price movements in the context of historical volatility. It calculates the Daily True Range (DTR)—the raw measure of a single day’s volatility—and compares it to the Average True Range (ATR), which smooths volatility over a user-defined period (default 14 days). The indicator presents this data in an intuitive table, featuring a color-coded percentage that visually represents how the current day’s move (DTR) stacks up against the average volatility (ATR). This helps traders quickly assess whether the current day’s price action is unusually volatile, average, or subdued relative to recent history.
Purpose
Volatility Comparison: Visualize how the current day’s price range (DTR) relates to the average range (ATR) over a specified period.
Decision Support: Identify days with exceptional movement (e.g., breakouts or reversals) versus normal or quiet days, aiding in trade entry/exit decisions.
Risk Management: Gauge daily volatility to adjust position sizing or stop-loss levels based on whether the market is exceeding or falling short of typical movement.
Features
Daily True Range (DTR) Calculation:
Computes the True Range for the current day as the greatest of:
Current day’s High - Low
High - Previous Close
Low - Previous Close
Aggregates data on any timeframe to ensure accurate daily values.
Average True Range (ATR):
Calculates the smoothed average of DTR over a customizable period (default 14 days) using Wilder’s smoothing method.
Updates in real-time as the day progresses.
Timeframe Flexibility: Works on any chart timeframe (e.g., 1-minute, 1-hour) while always calculating DTR and ATR based on daily data.
Color-Coded Display in either compact or table mode
The percentage value is color-coded in the table based on configurable thresholds:
Safe (default 75): Normal range, within typical volatility
Warning: (default 75-125): Above-average volatility.
Danger (default 125): Exceptionally high volatility
Daily Open @Alpha PipsOverview
The Daily Open @Alpha Pips indicator displays the daily opening price as a reference line on the chart. This level is widely used by traders to gauge market sentiment, potential support/resistance zones, and price reactions throughout the trading session.
How It Works

Daily High/Low Levels with mitigationThis Pine Script script defines a TradingView indicator named "Daily High/Low Levels" designed to track and display the daily high and low levels of a trading session, with added functionality for marking levels as mitigated when certain conditions are met. Here's a breakdown of its functionality:
Key Features
Session Start Time: The script allows you to specify a custom session start time in 24-hour format. This ensures the levels align with your trading session preferences.
Daily Highs and Lows:
Tracks the high and low levels for each session.
Retains the highs and lows for a configurable number of previous days.
Visualization:
Creates horizontal lines for each session's high and low levels.
Supports customization of line colors and styles.
Mitigation Tracking:
Monitors whether a high or low level has been "mitigated" (touched or exceeded by subsequent price action).
Changes the line style and color to indicate mitigation.
Provides an alert when mitigation occurs.
Configurable Extensions:
Lines can be extended beyond mitigation or stopped at the bar index where mitigation occurs, depending on user preference.
Efficient Array Management:
Uses arrays to manage daily highs, lows, their respective indices, and lines.
Ensures the size of stored data does not exceed the configured limit (daysToTrack).
Alerts:
Sends alerts when high or low levels are mitigated, which can be used for trading decisions.
Inputs
Session Start Hour/Minute: Defines when a new session starts.
Days to Track: Sets the number of previous days to display high/low levels.
Colors: Allows customization of line colors for unmitigated and mitigated levels.
Extend Lines: Toggles whether lines should extend past the mitigation point.
Code Highlights
New Session Detection: The script detects the start of a new session based on the configured session start time and resets daily highs/lows.
Line Management: Horizontal rays are created for highs and lows, and mitigated lines are updated with a dashed style and faded color.
Mitigation Logic: The script checks whether current price action exceeds stored high or low levels and updates their status and appearance accordingly.
Memory Management: Ensures the size of the arrays (highs, lows, lines) does not exceed the configured daysToTrack, deleting the oldest elements as necessary.
This indicator is highly customizable and useful for traders who want to track and analyze daily support and resistance levels, incorporating mitigation as a dynamic feature.
Daily MAs on Intraday ChartsThis is a very simple, yet powerful indicator, for intraday and swing traders.
The indicator plots price levels of key daily moving averages as horizontal lines onto intraday charts.
The key daily moving averages being:
5-day EMA
10-day EMA
21-day EMA
50-day SMA
100-day SMA
200-day SMA
The moving averages above can be toggled on and off to the users liking and different colours selected to show the locations of daily moving average price levels on intraday charts.
Below is a chart of the SPY on the 30-minute timeframe. The black line represents the price level of the SPY's 10-day EMA, and the blue line represents the price level of the SPY's 21-day EMA.
Key daily moving averages like those mentioned above can be areas of support or resistance for major indexes, ETFs, and individual stocks. Therefore, when using multiple timeframe analysis combining daily charts and intraday charts, it's useful to be aware of these key daily moving average levels for potential reversals.
This indicator clearly shows where the key daily moving average price levels are on intraday charts for the chosen ticker symbol, thus helping traders to identify potential points of interest for trading ideas - i.e., going long or pullbacks into key daily moving averages, or short on rallies into key daily moving averages subject to the trader's thoughts at the time.
By using the 'Daily MAs on Intraday Charts' the trader can now have a multi-chart layout and be easily aware of key price levels from daily moving averages when looking at various intraday timeframe charts such as the 1-minute, 5-minute, 15-minute, 30-minute, 1-hour etc. This can be essential information for opening long and short trading ideas.

Daily BreadWhat it does:
This script uses specific multiple true ranges from a 30 EMA baseline to plot lines that represent 10% buying increments. Although the common period for ATR is 14, this script employs a period of 20 for smoothing that I have determined is more effective when used with a daily candle chart. It includes onscreen trend signals to identify an uptrend or downtrend when the 50 EMA crosses the 90 EMA and will also display a coloured directional signal at each candle beyond an EMA cross to identify the current trend.
The script plots a scale of percentage labels at the end of each line to identify the percent of an account intended to be in short or longer term trades.
How it does it:
The script uses a 30 EMA baseline and then multiplies ATR increments of +1, +2, +4 and -1 through -7. These ATR multiples and the EMA are plotted as 11 lines, 10 of which make up the range of 10% increments from 10% to 100% with the 11th line being the High Band representing the extreme high or expected sale of any holdings. The percentage label scale uses variable declarations to position and colour match a percentage label to each line.
Intended use:
It is intended to be used for short term trading or long term investing with a daily market index chart such as SPY and multiple exchange traded funds that track said market index. A different ETF is purchased when a daily SPY candle reaches a lower buy band using 10% of a total account value. The sale of any ETFs is at the discretion of the trader and dependent on investment strategy (short term trading or long term inventing) and the trend. When short term trading in a downtrend or when daily candles are below the 50 EMA, selling would be done every 2 to 3 bands above a buy to mitigate the risk of a significant portion of an account getting caught in a downtrend. In an uptrend the High Band would be used to sell any holdings.
