BB-RSI-ADX Entry PointsThis is a combination of indicators used to find oversold and overbought entry points for possible reversion.
A Green arrow will appear when all condition are met for an ENTER LONG position.
A Red arow will appear when all condition are met for an ENTER SHORT position.
You can modify all of these condition parameters from the indicator's settings.
How does the indicator work
The signals are using Bollinger Bands , BB %B , RSI and ADX indicators to try and find points of reversal
Enter LONG Conditions
Current candle low is below BB lower band.
The BB %B is more than 0.
RSI > 30
ADX > 25
Enter SHORT Conditions
Current candle high is above BB upper band.
The BB %B is less than 1.
RSI < 70
ADX > 25
Those are the default settings that seem to work for me but you can customize all of these from the indicator settings.
I find this strategy to best work on a 3 minute timeframe
Note: The bb %B is calculated for stDev - 1. This will help you see a change happening faster.

BB + RSI double strategy developeI'm Korean, and it may not be enough to explain this script in English. I feel sorry for the users of TradingView for this lack of English skills. If you are Korean, please return it to the translator using Papago. It will be a useful manual for you.
This script referenced Chartart's Double Strategy. But there are some changes in his script.
0. Basically, when you break through the top or bottom of the 100th period balliser band and come back into the band, you track the overbuying and overselling of the RSI to determine your position entry. The order is triggered only when both conditions are satisfied at the same time. However, only one condition applies to clearing the position. This is because it is most effective in reducing risk and increasing assets in terms of profit and loss.
1. This script is optimized for 15 minutes of bitcoin futures chart and API via webbook alert. By default, 10x leverage usage and 10 pyramids are applied.
2. Setting a chart period other than 15 minutes will not guarantee sufficient effectiveness. It can also be applied to Ethereum , but it is not recommended to apply to other symbols.
3. I added Enable Date Filter because Chartart's script could not apply the strategy to the user's desired period. This feature allows you to set a period of time when you do not want to use the strategy. You can also uncheck it if you don't want to fully use this feature. Please remember that it is an exclusion period, not a usage period. With this feature, we can see the effectiveness of the strategy from a point in time, not from the entire period. You can also clearly differentiate the effectiveness of the strategy from the point you use it.
4. You can also stop using strategies at certain times of the day when you don't want to apply them. This works similarly to the Enalbe Date Filter described above. This allows you to sleep comfortably even if you don't fully trust this strategy.
5. The period, overbuying, and overselling figures of RSI can be set individually. For example, when you take a long position, you can set the RSI to a period of 7, and at the same time, the RSI entering the short position can be set to a period of 14. You can also set the base figures for overbuying and overselling to levels that you think are reasonable. This figure works in conjunction with the Bollinger Band and affects position entry when it is crossed or returned.
6. Based on API futures trading, basic Sleepy and commission are applied. This is geared towards market price transactions. This makes your revenue look more reasonable.
Thank you very much, Chartart. You are a genius.

저는 한국인이고, 영어로 이 스크립트를 설명하는 것이 어렵기 때문에 설명이 부족할 수 있습니다. 이런 영어 능력 부족에 대해서 TradingView 사용자들에게 미안하게 생각합니다. 만약 당신이 한국인이라면 파파고를 사용하여 번역기에 돌려주십시오. 당신에게 유익한 설명서가 될 것입니다.
이 스크립트는 Chart art의 Double Strategy를 참조했습니다. 그러나 그의 스크립트에서 달라진 점이 몇 가지 있습니다.
0. 기본적으로 100기간의 볼린져밴드의 상단 또는 하단을 돌파한 뒤 다시 밴드 안으로 들어올 때 RSI의 과매수, 과매도를 추적하여 포지션 진입을 결정합니다. 두 가지 조건이 동시에 만족되어야만 주문이 트리거 됩니다. 그러나 포지션을 청산하는 것에는 볼린져밴드 하나의 조건만 적용합니다. 여러가지 테스트를 거친 결과 이것이 손익 면에서 가장 효과적으로 리스크를 줄이고 자산을 늘리는 것에 효율적이기 때문입니다.
1. 이 스크립트는 15분의 비트코인 선물 차트와 webhook alert을 통한 API에 최적화되어 있습니다. 기본적으로 10배의 레버리지 사용과 10개의 피라미딩이 적용되어 있습니다.
2. 15분 외에 다른 차트 기간을 설정한다면 충분한 효과를 보장할 수 없습니다. 또한 이더리움에도 적용할 수 있지만, 그 외에 다른 심볼에는 적용하지 않는 것을 권장합니다.
3. Chart art의 스크립트는 전략을 사용자가 원하는 기간에 적용할 수 없었기 때문에, 저는 Enable Date Filter를 추가하였습니다. 이 기능을 통해 전략 사용을 원하지 않는 기간을 설정할 수 있습니다. 또한 이 기능을 완전히 사용하고싶지 않다면 체크를 해제할 수 있습니다. 사용 기간이 아닌 제외 기간인 점을 상기하시길 바랍니다. 이 기능을 통해 우리는 전체 기간이 아닌 가까운 특정 시점부터의 전략 적용 효과를 확인할 수 있습니다. 또한 사용자가 전략을 사용한 시점부터의 효과를 명백히 구분할 수 있습니다.
4. 또한 사용자가 적용을 원하지 않는 하루 중의 특정 시간대에 전략 사용을 멈출 수도 있습니다. 이는 위에 설명한 Enalbe Date Filter와 유사하게 작동합니다. 이를 통해 당신이 온전히 이 전략을 신뢰하지 못하여도 당신은 마음 편하게 잠에 들 수 있습니다.
5. RSI의 기간 및 과매수, 과매도 수치를 개별적으로 설정할 수 있습니다. 예를 들어 당신이 롱 포지션을 취할 때에는 RSI를 7의 기간으로 설정할 수 있고, 동시에 숏 포지션을 진입하는 RSI는 14의 기간으로 설정될 수 있습니다. 또한 과매수 및 과매도의 기준 수치를 당신이 합리적이라고 생각하는 수준으로 설정할 수 있습니다. 이 수치는 볼린져밴드와 함께 작동하여 그것을 넘어서거나 다시 되돌아올 때 포지션 진입에 영향을 미칩니다.
6. API 선물거래를 기준으로 하여 기본적인 슬리피지와 커미션이 적용되어있습니다. 이는 시장가 거래에 맞춰져 있습니다. 이는 당신의 수익을 좀 더 합리적인 수치로 보일 수 있게 합니다.
Chartart에게 특별히 감사합니다. 당신은 천재입니다.
Is the Bollinger Bands assumption wrong?Bollinger Bands are the result of the assumption that closing prices will follow a normal distribution.
However, when I actually calculated the probability, the closing price does not follow a normal distribution.
According to the normal distribution, the probability that Z > 2 should be 2.2%, but on the chart, the probability is 6~9%.
Can we get a useful value for Bollinger Bands that we can use in our strategy?
We can measure volatility, but can we judge volatility based on a fixed value?
To the right of each Bollinger band value, the probability that the price is above the band is displayed.
The script is simply annotated with how each probability is calculated.
EMA bands + leledc + bollinger bands trend following strategy v2The basics:
In its simplest form, this strategy is a positional trend following strategy which enters long when price breaks out above "middle" EMA bands and closes or flips short when price breaks down below "middle" EMA bands. The top and bottom of the middle EMA bands are calculated from the EMA of candle highs and lows, respectively.
The idea is that entering trades on breakouts of the high EMAs and low EMAs rather than the typical EMA based on candle closes gives a bit more confirmation of trend strength and minimizes getting chopped up. To further reduce getting chopped up, the strategy defaults to close on crossing the opposite EMA band (ie. long on break above high EMA middle band and close below low EMA middle band).
This strategy works on all markets on all timeframes, but as a trend following strategy it works best on markets prone to trending such as crypto and tech stocks. On lower timeframes, longer EMAs tend to work best (I've found good results on EMA lengths even has high up to 1000), while 4H charts and above tend to work better with EMA lengths 21 and below.
As an added filter to confirm the trend, a second EMA can be used. Inputting a slower EMA filter can ensure trades are entered in accordance with longer term trends, inputting a faster EMA filter can act as confirmation of breakout strength.
Bar coloring can be enabled to quickly visually identify a trend's direction for confluence with other indicators or strategies.
The goods:
Waiting for the trend to flip before closing a trade (especially when a longer base EMA is used) often leaves money on the table. This script combines a number of ways to identify when a trend is exhausted for backtesting the best early exits.
"Delayed bars inside middle bands" - When a number of candle's in a row open and close between the middle EMA bands, it could be a sign the trend is weak, or that the breakout was not the start of a new trend. Selecting this will close out positions after a number of bars has passed
"Leledc bars" - Originally introduced by glaz, this is a price action indicator that highlights a candle after a number of bars in a row close the same direction and result in greatest high/low over a period. It often triggers when a strong trend has paused before further continuation, or it marks the end of a trend. To mitigate closing on false Leledc signals, this strategy has two options: 1. Introducing requirement for increased volume on the Leledc bars can help filter out Leledc signals that happen mid trend. 2. Closing after a number of Leledc bars appear after position opens. These two options work great in isolation but don't perform well together in my testing.
"Bollinger Bands exhaustion bars" - These bars are highlighted when price closes back inside the Bollinger Bands and RSI is within specified overbought/sold zones. The idea is that a trend is overextended when price trades beyond the Bollinger Bands. When price closes back inside the bands it's likely due for mean reversion back to the base EMA in which this strategy will ideally re-enter a position. Since the added RSI requirements often make this indicator too strict to trigger a large enough sample size to backtest, I've found it best to use "non-standard" settings for both the bands and the RSI as seen in the default settings.
"Buy/Sell zones" - Similar to the idea behind using Bollinger Bands exhaustion bars as a closing signal. Instead of calculating off of standard deviations, the Buy/Sell zones are calculated off multiples of the middle EMA bands. When trading beyond these zones and subsequently failing back inside, price may be due for mean reversion back to the base EMA. No RSI filter is used for Buy/Sell zones.
If any early close conditions are selected, it's often worth enabling trade re-entry on "middle EMA band bounce". Instead of waiting for a candle to close back inside the middle EMA bands, this feature will re-enter position on only a wick back into the middle bands as will sometimes happen when the trend is strong.
Any and all of the early close conditions can be combined. Experimenting with these, I've found can result in less net profit but higher win-rates and sharpe ratios as less time is spent in trades.
The deadly:
The trend is your friend. But wouldn't it be nice to catch the trends early? In ranging markets (or when using slower base EMAs in this strategy), waiting for confirmation of a breakout of the EMA bands at best will cause you to miss half the move, at worst will result in getting consistently chopped up. Enabling "counter-trend" trades on this strategy will allow the strategy to enter positions on the opposite side of the EMA bands on either a Leledc bar or Bollinger Bands exhaustion bar. There is a filter requiring either a high/low (for Leledc) or open (for BB bars) outside the selected inner or outer Buy/Sell zone. There are also a number of different close conditions for the counter-trend trades to experiment with and backtest.
There are two ways I've found best to use counter-trend trades
1. Mean reverting scalp trades when a trend is clearly overextended. Selecting from the first 5 counter-trend closing conditions on the dropdown list will usually close the trades out quickly, with less profit but less risk.
2. Trying to catch trends early. Selecting any of the close conditions below the first 5 can cause the strategy to behave as if it's entering into a new trend (from the wrong side).
This feature can be deadly effective in profiting from every move price makes, or deadly to the strategy's PnL if not set correctly. Since counter-trend trades open opposite the middle bands, a stop-loss is recommended to reduce risk. If stop-losses for counter-trend trades are disabled, the strategy will hold a position open often until liquidation in a trending market if th trade is offsides. Note that using a slower base EMA makes counter-trend stop-losses even more necessary as it can reduce the effectiveness of the Buy/Sell zone filter for opening the trades as price can spend a long time trending outside the zones. If faster EMAs (34 and below) are used with "Inner" Buy/Zone filter selected, the first few closing conditions will often trigger almost immediately closing the trade at a loss.
The niche:
I've added a feature to default into longs or shorts. Enabling these with other features (aside from the basic long/short on EMA middle band breakout) tends to break the strategy one way or another. Enabling default long works to simulate trying to acquire more of the asset rather than the base currency. Enabling default short can have positive results for those high FDV, high inflation coins that go down-only for months at a time. Otherwise, I use default short as a hedge for coins that I hold and stake spot. I gain the utility and APR of staking while reducing the risk of holding the underlying asset by maintaining a net neutral position *most* of the time.
Disclaimer:
This script is intended for experimenting and backtesting different strategies around EMA bands. Use this script for your live trading at your own risk. I am a rookie coder, as such there may be errors in the code that cause the strategy to behave not as intended. As far as I can tell it doesn't repaint, but I cannot guarantee that it does not. That being said if there's any question, improvements, or errors you've found, drop a comment below!

I11L OIL BotThe System makes use of the Bolinger Bands strategy from TradingView and implements simple Money Management Rules like SL and TP.
You can adjust the following Parameters:
Leverage: Leverage.
Risk Capital per Trade: The amount you are willing to lose per Trade, keep in mind that changes in Leverage should follow changes in Risk Capital.
TP_Factor: Default is 2:1 Risk:Reward, you might want to adjust this according to the underlying market.
InvertBuyLogic: Inverts the Logic of the System, important for checking if you have a true performance advantage from using the System. I look for a flat looking Curve in the wrong mode.
LookbackDistance: The distance your standart Deviation is refering to. A Lookback Distance too big might result in very few signals.
DevMult: We only want outliers, so we multiply our standart Deviation Bands by a Factor.
Double Basics - Identify Overbought & Oversold - MultitimeframeI believe that everyone should monitor the basic indicators; EMA/SMA cross, BB and RSI on at least TWO timeframes before making any trading decisions. And because that is only possible on paid subscriptions, I created this indicator for people just getting started.
It allows you to plot all of the mentioned AND 2 weeklies of your choice on 1 chart INCLUDING a higher timeframe, using only 1 indicator.
The EMA's are plotted as ORANGE and the SMA's as BLACK, you can distinguish them by the line size, thin is current chart, thick is higher timeframe.
Same for the Bollinger Bands, Upper lines are red (overbought = sell signal) and bottom lines are green (oversold = buy signal)
The RSI, normally plotted in its own window, are plotted on the scale of the BB of the 2nd timeframe, where the bottom line = 0, upper line = 100 and middle (think black) line = 50. The thin purple line is the RSI of the chart resolution, the thicker purple line is the RSI of the 2nd timeframe.
Finally, the two weeklies are plotted as thick black lines.
Enjoy, and let me know your feedback!
SuperJump Turn Back Bollinger BandThis is a simple indicator using bolinger band return.
After the candle's bolinger band broke out,
Turn back inside BB is the entry point.
Usually there are more than two triangles, so you can wait after ordering a better price.
As you already know about it, it is very dangerous for the bolinger band to enter in the reverse direction when a strong trend is created.
That's why I made the Red Line. It is calculated by ATR and will suggest you an appropriate StopLoss value.
Volume + VolatilityBefore I begin I want to mention:
1. This is a variation of the 'CCI & BB' made by matsu_bitmex (Link: ) and SigmaDraconis's 'On Balance Volume Oscillator + Bollinger Bands' (Link: )
2. While using this sometimes you may not notice the crossover so I've added the Line 'x' outside 'x' BB to only see if Line 3 and 4 crossed over
The indicator:
1. When the background is green and the 2 lines are going up it means uptrend
2. When the background is red and the 2 lines are going down it means downtrend
3. When there is a crossover and the background outside BB turns yellow, it means there is a lot of volatility or volume
How to use (Or how I use this):
1. All trades based on the yellow color MUST be during a trend
2. When the color changes to yellow for the 1st time in the direction of a trend it is advisable to enter
VIX Cheat SheetHello!
This indicator - "VIX Cheat Sheet" - performs several calculations for $VIX against the asset on your chart. However, using $VIX as a risk proxy or volatility metric often fails beyond large-cap U.S equities. To remedy this, the VixFix indicator is included in the script; you can select whether the script performs calculations for an asset against $VIX or against VixFix (i.e. Forex, Crypto)
Measured are: $VIX correlation to an asset's price fluctuations, the average close-to-close gain/loss subsequent a $VIX/VixFix close above the upper Bollinger Band, the average 5-session gain/loss following the same occurrence in addition to the average 10-session gain/loss, all close-to-close, 5 session, and 10-session gains/losses are stored as tooltips for labels on the chart. The current close-to-close percentage gain/loss for $VIX and VixFix are displayed on the chart.
Displayed in the example image is a box incorporating $VIX price data alongside an upper Bollinger Band and lower Bollinger Band. The data isn't cast to its own price scale but is helpful for quick interpretation of $VIX fluctuations. You can select to plot VixFix data in the box in the user inputs table.
Displayed in the second example image is a semi-transparent blue box encompassing all price moves that occurred when $VIX measured above $40 for at least ten consecutive sessions. The largest percentage close-to-close loss is displayed below the box.
Also illustrated is a red label that appears when $VIX or VixFix closes above the upper Bollinger Band. The indicator will calculate and display the performance of the asset for the subsequent 10 sessions, to which the red label will disappear and all data stored as a tooltip in the blue labels stating "VIX Closed Above Upper Band" or "VixFix Closed Above Upper Band".
To reduce chart clutter, a label and line combination marking all $VIX closes above the upper Bollinger Band was not included. Instead, bar color changes were added. When "$VIX" is selected in the user inputs table the indicator will mark all sessions in which $VIX closed above the upper band as blue, in addition to plotting $VIX price data in the dynamic black box. When "VixFix" is selected, the indicator will mark all sessions where VixFix closed above the upper band as purple; the VixFix indicator will be plotted in the black box.
Be sure to hover over labels to access tooltip information; try the indicator with bar replay!
MadriEsta estrategia fue creada por mi, basándose en el indicador bollinger bands+rsi y una ema , forexstrategiesresources me lo pasó a codigo y despues fue publicado en ChartArt y en la pagina web de forexstrategiesresources.
Ahora este script lo he modificado para optimizarlo para BTC /USDT en la temporalidad de 1 hora, os invito a ir cambiando temporalidades y valores para conseguir la mayor rentabilidad y, al igual que yo lo publico en codigo abierto os invito a que pongáis vuestros ajustes en los comentarios.
Los ajustes que se pueden cambiar para buscar mayor rentabilidad son en primer lugar "lo que se puede cambiar desde el mismo grafico" los valores "A" y "B".
Además, en el codigo el valor "RSIoverSold" y el "RSIoverBought" por mi experencia con menos de 30 no suele ir bien y con mas de 70 tampoco, el rango adecuado es de 29 a 49, incluidos.
Yo no he trasteado mucho pero también os invito a cambiar la fuente de entrada de "close" a "high", "open", "low"...
Recomiendo para la configuración ACTUAL mismo símbolo, mismos valores operar las señales Short cuando el precio este por debajo de la EMA de 900 y operar las Long cuando este por encima.
En otros símbolos la cosa cambia, hay que adaptarlo a cada cosa.
Triple ThreatThis indicator provides buy and sell signals for Bitcoin based on confluence from well-known momentum, volatility, and trend indicators. It has successfully captured the major directional trends on Bitcoin's daily chart since 2018, and the settings are currently optimized for this chart in particular. This indicator implements RSI to gauge momentum, BBWP to gauge volatility, and an EMA to gauge trend. Maximum confluence signals are represented by horizontal bars in the indicator's pane, where the tallest green bar is a confirmed buy signal, and the tallest red bar is a confirmed sell signal. The shortest bar represents a momentum-only signal, and the second-shortest bar represents a volatility signal in confluence with the previously given momentum signal.
To track momentum, the RSI is plotted to the indicator plane against a moving average of the RSI. A momentum signal is generated when the RSI crosses over its moving average, retests/approaches the moving average, and then continues in the crossover direction (i.e., it fails to cross the moving average to the opposite side, creating a successful retest). The settings that affect this trigger are the "Crossover Threshold," which specifies how much the RSI should exceed the moving average to be considered a crossover, and the "Retest threshold," which specifies how closely the RSI should approach the moving average to be considered a retest. A momentum signal is ALSO generated if the RSI or its moving average exceed their counterpart by a certain threshold. For example, if the threshold was set at 10, a BUY signal would be generated when the RSI exceeds the moving average by 10, or a SELL signal would be generated when the moving average exceeds the RSI by 10. This threshold can be set using the "Instant Signal Threshold" setting. Either type of momentum signal will be plotted on the pane as the shortest horizontal bar, with its color indicating the signal's direction.
Volatility is primarily measured using the Bollinger Band Width Percentile (BBWP) indicator, which was created by The_Caretaker. BBWP plots the volatility of the asset's price, given by Bollinger Band width, relative to past volatility by assigning the volatility readings into percentiles. The indicator also includes a moving average of the BBWP itself, where a crossover to the upside represents expanding volatility and a crossover to the downside represents contracting volatility. This indicator is used to confirm a signal given by the momentum indicators - a momentum signal that is given during a period of expanding volatility has a greater likelihood of success. Therefore, when the BBWP crosses above its moving average by a given threshold, a previously triggered momentum signal is considered to be "confirmed." The threshold for this crossover can be set using the "BBWP Confirmation Threshold" setting. However, it is also relevant that periods of extreme volatility often accompany an extremity in price action (a "top" or "bottom"), in which case the BBWP is likely to contract after price reaches such an extremity. This phenomenon is captured by also using "extreme reads" on the momentum indicator to signal that there has already been enough volatility to confirm a momentum signal. If the RSI gives an "extreme read" before triggering a signal, the momentum signal is also considered to be confirmed. For example, if the RSI is above 80, breaks below 80, and then gives a SELL signal, this sell signal is considered to be confirmed without requiring the BBWP to crossover its moving average to the upside. The threshold that would confirm a SELL signal can be set with the "Overbought" setting, and the threshold that would confirm a BUY signal can be set with the "Oversold" setting. Whenever a volatility signal confirms a momentum signal, a medium-sized horizontal bar will be plotted on the pane in the same directional color as the momentum signal. Note that a momentum signal may trigger at the exact same time as the volatility signal which confirms it; in this case, only the medium-sized bar will be visible on the pane, but its direction can still be identified by its color.
Lastly, to reduce the likelihood of "false signals," a trend indicator is used to confirm the direction of the signal. This is typically an exponential moving average. If a confirmed volatility SELL signal is given, and the closing price is below the moving average, then the SELL signal is also confirmed by the trend. Likewise, if a confirmed volatility BUY signal is given, and the closing price is above the moving average, then the BUY signal is confirmed by the trend. The type and length of the moving average used to verify the trend can be set using the "Moving Average Type" and "Moving Average Length" settings found below the momentum/volatility settings. A trend signal is plotted on the pane as a tall horizontal bar, and is more deeply colored than the momentum and volatility signals.
For maximum confluence, it is recommended that the trend signal, given by the tallest bar, is the one that forms the basis of trades executed while using the Triple Threat indicator. It is possible to enter more aggressive trades with better entries by using only the volatility signal, given by the medium-sized bar, however this entails greater risk and should only be done in confluence with an additional trading strategy of your own discretion. Backtesting has shown that using the volatility signal alone underperforms using the volatility signal in confluence with the trend signal.
Please also be advised that the default setting are optimized for Bitcoin's daily chart only. The indicator is still applicable to other timeframes and asset classes, but the settings may need to be modified. I have a list of settings for other Bitcoin timeframes, and I would be happy to share them upon request.
I hope you can find this indicator to be of some use to your trading strategies. I'd be happy to hear any feedback from the community, so please don't hesitate to reach out. Stay safe, and happy trading.

Reversal Indicator
█ OVERVIEW
This indicator shows bullish and bearish reversal signal candles. It finds the candles with extreme volatility and marks the candles with high probability for a reversal of the trend.
█ CONCEPT
This indicator uses the Bollinger Bands to mark the candles with high selling/buying pressure. Bollinger Bands consist of three bands total: an upper band, middle band, and lower band. These separate bands are each used to highlight extreme prices in a specific security. The upper band is associated with overbought, whereas the lower band points to oversold, and the middle band acts as a moving average.
It is common after a lower band has been broken by heavy selling for the price of the asset to revert back above the point of the lower band and move closer to the middle band. The indicator marks this occurrence as a bullish reversal candle. Same applies vice versa. If the upper band is broken by heavy buying, it is natural for the price to revert back and move closer to the middle level. This indicator marks this as a bearish reversal candle.
█ HOW TO USE IT
Reversal Candles - Sky blue colored "R" indicates bullish reversal candle and yellow colored "R" indicates bearish reversal candle.
Checkmarks - Checkmarks provide a confirmation that the reversal has already begun with the candle next to the signal candle. Always wait for confirmation before considering it as a reversal of the trend.
RSI confluence - Enabling this check box in settings will show the reversal signal only when the RSI is overbought/oversold
█ LIMITATION
As like in any indicator, this indicator needs to be used with the assistance of other indicators to make conceptual and strategic trading decisions.
Flat Detect By Bollinger BandsThis simple script indicate the potential flat market zones, calculated based on the Bollinger Bands width.
It's showing the Bollinger Bands in red when the market is detected as flat.
You can adjust the Width Threshold with precision on the inputs settings.
Enjoy :)
Coin Bureau BB/EMA/RSI IndicatorThis indicator was inspired by Coin Bureau's How To Spot The Crypto Top video. In the video, Coin Bureau uses Bollinger bands, 7-period EMA and RSI to look for early signs of a top, thus presenting an opportunity to sell.
Using the basic principles found in the video, I've made a tentative indicator as a way to visualise all 3 indicators at once. Alerts will only fire when all 3 criteria are met:
Price closes outside 20-period Bollinger bands
Price closes ~2sd away from 7-period EMA
RSI is overbought or oversold
The indicator will also update in real-time and show when 1, 2 or all 3 conditions are satisfied. Additionally, there is built-in functionality to toggle historical/current alerts and users can set their own bounds for what constitutes a buy or sell alert.
This is just a personal project purely for edutainment purposes and should not be used to make financial decisions. This project is not affiliated with Coin Bureau.
Some caveats:
Using only 7 periods to calculate the standard deviation of price data will not lead to a statistically significant result, thus this figure may have no right being in the script. However, this was more to trial some techniques and to get acquainted with the pine scripting language.
As you can see, there are a lot of false positives. There are moments when the indicator flashes a sell alert only for the price to keep on rising. This is due to the specificity/sensitivity trade-off. The indicator has been tuned to give the optimal sensitivity (the more critical component). These are the best results I could find for this asset in this time frame.
MA Bollinger Bands + RSI (Study)This study/indicator script is meant to allow users to set alerts based on my MA Bollinger Bands + RSI (Strategy).
Both Study and Strategy scripts reflect the exact same user inputs, parameters and trading signals.
6 different alerts available:
- MABB+RSI Long (or Short) Signal (all): activates for every single Long (or Short) signals
- MABB+RSI Long (or Short) Signal: activates when trade direction changes from Short to Long (or from Long to Short)
- MABB+RSI Long (or Short) Re-Entry Signal: after a stop loss was hit, activates upon same trade direction if new signal
(“Enable SL” & “Allow re-entry” must be switched on)
Chart legend:
- Red arrow = Short Signal
- Blue arrow = Long Signal
- Red square = Stop loss (when trade entry)
- Purple square = Stop loss (when hit)
NB1: Be sure to set both Study and Strategy script settings to the same values if you want to achieve similar results in both scripts.
NB2: When setting up your alerts, preferably use option “Once per bar close” to get proper confirmations.
Enjoy!
Volume Adaptive Bollinger Bands (MZ VABB)This indicator is a functional enhancement to John Bollinger's Bollinger Bands. I've used Volume to adapt dynamic length which is used in basis (middle line) of Bollinger Bands and Simple Moving Average is replaced with Adaptive Ehlers Deviation Scaled Moving Average ( AEDSMA ).
BOLLINGER BANDS BASIC USAGE AND LIMITATIONS
Bollinger bands are popular among traders because of their simple way to detect volatility in market and redefine support and resistance accordingly. These are some basic usages of original Bollinger Bands:
Most commonly Bollinger Band works on 20 period Simple Moving Average as Basis / Middle Line and standard deviation of 2 for volatility detection.
Upper and lower bands can act as support and resistance which accordingly update with standard deviation of same period as of Simple Moving Average.
As upper and lower bands act as volatility measure which benefits in Squeeze detection and breakout trading.
Among all the usages there are some limitations as follows:
Original Bollinger Bands use 20 period Simple Moving Average as Basis which itself restricted to some number of data pints and if market moves in one direction or simply goes sideways for long time; candles can stay on either bands for long time. This gives benefit for staying in directional trade but will completely nullify the use of both bands as support and resistance.
Above point simply be explained as markets can stay overbought / oversold for long time and one way to make Bollinger Bands more useful is to simply use higher periods in SMA but as we know with higher periods SMA becomes more laggy and less adaptive.
Most traders use BBs alongside some other Volume Oscillator for example "On Balance Volume" but that does solve BBs limitations issue that it should be more adaptive to detect volatility in market.
VOLUME ADAPTIVE BOLLINGER BAND WORKING PRINCIPLE
Best way to make original Bollinger band more adaptive was to just use dynamic length instead on constant 20 period. This dynamic length had to be based on some other powerful parameter which can't be volatility as BB itself is a volatility indicator and adapting its length based volatility would have been superimposing volatility on Bollinger bands giving unrealistic results.
For adaptive length, I tried using Volume and for this purpose I used my Relative Volume Strength Index " RVSI " indicator. RVSI is the best way to detect if Volume is going for a breakout or not and based on that indication length of Bollinger Band Basis Moving Average changes.
RVSI breaking above provided value would indicate Volume breakout and hence dynamic length would accordingly make Bollinger band basis moving average more over fitted and similarly standard deviation of achieved dynamic length would give better bands for support and resistance. Similar case would happen if Volume goes down and dynamic length becomes more underfit.
According to my back testing studies I found that Simple Moving Average wasn't the best choice for dynamic length usage in Bollinger Band Basis. So, I used Adaptive Ehlers Deviation Scaled Moving Average ( AEDSMA ) which is more adaptive and already modified to adapt with RVSI.
SLOPE USAGE FOR TREND STRENGTH DETCTION
Volume Adaptive Bollinger Bands are more reactive to market trends so, I used slope for trend strength detection.
If slope of Volume Adaptive Bollinger Band Basis (i.e. AEDSMA ), Upper and Lower Bands is supporting a trend at same time then script will provide signal in that direction. That signal can also use Volume as confirmation if Bollinger Bands trend direction is supported by Volume or not.
DYNAMIC COLORS AND TREND CORRELATION
I’ve used dynamic coloring in Basis ( AEDSMA ) to identify trends with more detail which are as follows:
Lime Color: Slope supported Strong Uptrend also supported by Volume and Volatility or whatever you’ve chosen from both of them.
Fuchsia Color: Weak uptrend only supported by Slope or whatever you’ve selected.
Red Color: Slope supported Strong Downtrend also supported by Volume and Volatility or whatever you’ve chosen from both of them.
Grey Color: Weak Downtrend only supported by Slope or whatever you’ve selected.
Yellow Color: Possible reversal indication by Slope if enabled. Market is either sideways, consolidating or showing choppiness during that period.
SIGNALS
Green Circle: Market good for long with support of Volume and Volatility or whatever you’ve chosen from both of them.
Red Circle: Market good to short with support from Volume and Volatility or whatever you’ve chosen from both of them.
Flag: Market either touched upper or lower band and can act as good TP and warning for reversal.
FIBONACCI BANDS
I’ve included Fibonacci multiple bands which would act as good support/resistance zones. For example, 0.618 Fib level act as good local support and resistance in both upper and lower zones. Fibonacci values can be modified but should be lower than 1.
DEFAULT SETTINGS
I’ve set default Minimum length to 50 and Maximum length to 100 which I’ve found works best for almost all timeframes but you can change this delta to adapt your timeframe accordingly with more precision.
Dynamic length adoption is enabled based on Volume only but volatility can be selected which is already explained above.
Trend signals are enabled based on Slope and Volume but Volatility can be enabled for more precise confirmations.
In “ RVSI ” settings "Klinger Volume Oscillator" is set to default but others work good too especially Volume Zone Oscillator. For more details about Volume Breakout you can check “MZ RVSI Indicator".
ATR breakout is set to be positive if period 14 exceeds period 46 but can be changed if more adaption with volatility is required.
EDSMA super smoother filter length is set to 20 which can be increased to 50 or more for better smoothing but this will also change slope results accordingly.
EDSMA super smoother filter poles are set to 2 because found better results with 2 instead of 3.
FURTHER ENHANCEMENTS
So far, I've achieved better results with "Klinger Volume Oscillator" in RVSI but TFS Volume Oscillator and On Balance Volume can be used which would change dynamic length differently. It doesn't mean that results would be wrong with some oscillator and precise with others but every oscillator works in its specific way for and RVSI just detect strength of Volume based on provided oscillator.
