SpiceIn the chart photo is a description for each shape and letter, saying what each one is.
BB, Reversals are off by default.
BB + Reversals + Next bar confirmation - The way this should be used is by waiting for a 1 or 2 bar confirmation closed above/below the high/low of the Reversal candle. So if its a Top R, a yellow box will print as a confirmed 1 bar if it closed below the top R's low, then you can wait for the second bar to close also below the Top R's low. Vice versa with the Bot R.

If anyone uses the BB reversals source code to put into their own indicator/strategy, you are free to do so. Just send me a message I'd love to see your work with it! :)
Thanks to Lij_MC's MarketVision A indicator for inspiring me to add more features. At first it was just the RSI Arrows and the BB reversals candles + Condition but then I found MarketVision A and loved the extra Leledc and 3 Line Strike features.
Hope you enjoy this Spice!
No Signal is 100% correct at what it's trying to do. Use caution when trading!

Interactive trendline - Proximity Doji & 3LSThis script was developed with Blockhead305 (seriously talented) and uses 1) the Three Line Strike from The Moving Average as well as 2) an original doji script written for me and 3) the Interactive Trendline as developed by Blockhead305. The basic premise is that should a doji or Three Line Strike occur within a customizable ATR distance from your trendline, an on-chart notification will appear or you could set an alarm to warn you if this has happened.
How to set this up:
Step 1 - Find a a trend
Step 2 - Identify the candles that touches the trendline
Step 3 - Click on the indicator
Step 4 - Set the X1 and Y1 coordinates for the start of the trend
Step 5 - Set the X2 and Y2 coordinates for the last relevant candle of the trend
Step 6 - Write the number in the yellow box down (in this case 880)
Step 7 - Open the settings of the indicator
Enter the number from the yellow box into the box titled "Run" - Press "OK"
Step 8 - Chart should/could now show Buy/Sell Signals for the Dojis and/or Bullish or Bearish Three Line Strikes
Notes
1. If your trendline is bearish (X1/Y1 is higher than X2/Y2) only bearish signals will appear and vice versa
2. You can change the ATR multiples from trendline in the settings - I prefer 2 (which is also the default)
3. You can toggle Big Engulfing and/or Three Line Strike on or off (exact functionality as per The Moving Average functionality)
4. You can construct the type of doji you would like to see at the bottom of the settings screen - I prefer the following settings:
Dominant Wick Multiple - 2
Recessive Wick Multiple - 2
Body Multiple - 5
5. I place my SL above last high (shorts) or last low (longs) but could also use the trendline for this
6. I use TP with RRR off 1:2 but much more is obviously possible.
7. ONLY ONE INTERACTIVE TRENDLINE CAN BE USED ON THE SAME CHART
8. THE NUMBER IN THE YELLOW BOX IS RELEVANT TO THE TIMEFRAME THAT THE TRENDLINE WAS CREATED ON. IF YOU CHANGE
TIMEFRAMES IT WILL NOT WORK
Happy to receive constructive criticism and/or suggestions for improvements on the settings.
3LS | 3 Line Strike Strategy [Kintsugi Trading]What is the 3LS | 3 Line Strike Strategy?
Incorporating the 3 Line Strike candlestick pattern into our strategy was inspired by Arty at The Moving Average and the amazing traders at TheTrdFloor .
The Three Line Strike is a trend continuation candlestick pattern consisting of four candles. Depending on their heights and collocation, a bullish or a bearish trend continuation can be predicted.
In a symphony of trend analysis, price action, and volume we can find and place high-probability trades with the 3LS Strategy.
How to use it!
----- First, start by choosing a Stop-Loss Strategy, Stop PIP Size, and Risk/Reward Ratio -----
- Stop-Loss Strategy
Fixed PIP Size – This uses the top/bottom of the indicator candle and places a TP based on the chosen Risk:Reward ratio.
ATR Trail (No set Target Profit, only uses ATR Stop)
ATR Trail-Stop (Has set Target Profit, however, stop is based on ATR inputs)
**If you choose an ATR Stop-Loss Strategy - input the desired ATR period and Multiple you would like the stop to be calculated at**
**ATR Stop-Loss Strategies have a unique alert setup for Auto-Trading. See Auto-Trading Section**
- Risk/Reward Ratio = If you have a .5 risk/reward, it means you are risking $100 to make $50.
- Additional Stop PIP Size = Number of PIPs over the default stop location of the top or bottom of the indicator candle.
----- Next, we set the Session Filter -----
Set the Timezone and Trade Session you desire. If no specific session is desired, simply set the Trade Session to 00:00 - 00:00.
----- Next, we set the Moving Average Cloud Fill -----
Enter the Fast and Slow Moving Average Length used to calculate trend direction:
MA Period Fast
MA Period Slow
These inputs will determine whether the strategy looks for Long or Short positions.
----- Next, we set the VSA – Volume Spread Analysis Settings -----
Check the box to show the indicator at the bottom of the chart if desired.
This is just a different visual output of the VSA | Volume Spread Analysis indicator available for free under the community indicators tab. You can add that indicator to your chart and see the same output in candle format.
In combination with the Moving Average Cloud, the Volume Spread Analysis will help us determine when to take a trade and in what direction.
The strategy is essentially looking for small reversals going against the overall trend and placing a trade once that reversal ends and the price moves back in the direction of the overall trend.
The 3LS Strategy utilizes confirmation between trend, volume, and price action to place high probability trades.
The VSA is completely customizable by:
Moving Average Length
MA-1 Multiplier
MA-2 Multiplier
MA-3 Multiplier
Check out the VSA | Volume Spread Analysis indicator in the community scripts section under the indicators tab to use this awesome resource on other strategies.
----- Next, we have the option to view the automated KT Bull/Bear Signals -----
Check the boxes to show the buy-sell signal on the chart if desired.
----- Next, we set the risk we want to use if Auto Trading the strategy -----
I always suggest using no more than 1-3% of your total account balance per trade. Remember, if you have multiple strategies triggering per day with each using 1%, the total percent at risk will be much larger.
For Example – if you have 10 strategies each risking 1% your total risk is 10% of your account, not 1%! Be mindful to only use 1-3% of your total account balance across all strategies, not just each individual one.
----- Finally, we backtest our ideas -----
After using the 'Strategy Tester' tab on TradingView to thoroughly backtest your predictions you are ready to take it to the next level - Automated Trading!
This was my whole reason for creating the script. If you work a full-time job, live in a time zone that is hard to trade, or just don't have the patience, this will be a game-changer for you as it was for me.
Auto-Trading
When it comes to auto-trading this strategy I have included two options in the script that utilize the alert messages generated by TradingView.
*Note: Please trade on a demo account until you feel comfortable enough to use real money, and then please stick to 1%-2% of your total account value in risk per trade.*
