Custom Screener with Alerts V2 [QuantNomad]TradingView just recently announced the alert() function that allows you to create dynamic alerts from both strategies and studies. So I decided to update custom screener I published before. It was based on alerts from orders in strategies, that was the only way to create dynamic alerts in PineScript at that point. With the alert() function code become cleaner and more readable. It works for up to 40 symbols at the same time. You can create an alert from it easily by selecting screener name from the list and then selecting "Any alert() function call". No additional configuration is required, message and alert on close I set up in the code. I created as an example a screener that tracks both overbought (RSI > 70) and oversold stocks (RSI < 30). To create your own screener you have to change only screenerFunc(). By design it should output 2 values: cond - True/False Boolean variable. Should this instrument be displayed in the screener? value - Additional numeric value you can display in your screener. I display RSI level for selected stocks for example. Link to the old screener: Disclaimer Please remember that past performance may not be indicative of future results. Due to various factors, including changing market conditions, the strategy may no longer perform as good as in historical backtesting. This post and the script don’t provide any financial advice.

BEST Ultimate Engulfing ScreenerHello traders Continuing deeper and stronger with the screeners serie. I keep getting requests private messages and requests saying that screeners aren't possible with TradingView. My answer is always... "Reallyyy ??" (I never find a better answer than that...) I'll publish a few screeners just for everyone to understand what can be done with Pinescript. We don't have to wait for TradingView to allow screener based on custom indicator - we can build our own ^^ I - What is an engulfing pattern Let's start with a screener to check for a very famous candlestick pattern called engulfing Engulfing candles tend to signal a reversal of the current trend in the market. This specific pattern involves two candles with the latter candle ‘engulfing’ the entire body of the candle before it. The engulfing candle can be bullish or bearish depending on where it forms in relation to the existing trend Source and more info here These engulfing candles indicate a strong shift in direction, and when combined with observation of the price-trending direction that precedes it, this shift creates the opportunity for a trading strategy. II - How did I set the screener I added an optional filter being Price vs SMA. The idea is to select only the engulfing whenever the price also breaks an SMA - this usually translates a stronger move - but could sometimes give the signal too late (#meh #trading #ain't #easy) The visual signals are as follow: - square: whenever the engine detects an engulfing and an SMA breakout - triangle: the engine only detects an engulfing - dash: none of the above Then the colors are: - orange when bullish - yellow when bearish - aqua/dash when none of the above Cool Hacks "But sir... what can we do with only 5 instruments for a screener?" I agree not much but... even if I allow only 5 instruments per indicator - nothing prevents you from adding multiple times the same indicator and changing the selected instruments for each. I also show why the SPX500 gave a yellow triangle (bearish engulfing) and how to match it with the screener. => imgur.com Wishing you all the BEST trading Dave
