Trend Direction Helper (ZigZag and S/R and HH/LL labels)Hey everyone
First of all, I'd like to thank Ricardo Santos, Backtest Rookies for the inspiration for this script.
Actually, most of it is coming from them and I only mixed them up (and added my secret sauce ^^). If some of you are not thinking about a trading secret sauce, please get serious for a moment :)
Some of you asked me how I do to set the trend direction. You all understood that if you get an UP label, then the price should go up and vice-versa for down.
But it's not so easy to define the good signals for each asset and each timeframe. I'm going to repeat what I said yesterday because ... well... that's what trading is about
So quoting myself here "The inputs set by default will have to be changed for your asset/timeframe and can't be generic for everything. You have to play with the inputs until the signals will make sense to you
The indicator/strategy with a unique configuration that you'll never check or update according to the market condition DOES NOT exit. "
BUT... a bit of patience and practice and you might do wonders.
The Method
I never realized until now but by connecting the higher highs/lower lows, I was drawing zigzag lines.
The Zig Zag Master is Ricardo Santos . Please give him a follow, he's awesome
For those who don't want to draw on the chart or (my preferred choice) need some inspiration to define your trend directions, this script is for YOU (and your family, your pet, your girlfriend/boyfriend, ...)
I think that each asset/timeframe chart has its own history. What worked in a post could work in the future.
In that regard, if a trend direction worked in the past, that's the parameter that I'll use to trade with it in a demo account and make sure it's relevant. If not then I will adjust
If you're trading with new indicators or a new method right away on your real trading account, you're gonna have a bad time imgflip.com
Lines EVERYWHERE
The script draws the classical horizontal pivots + the zig zag lines + the Higher Highs/Lower Lows label in just 1 script. I'm very excited to share a script (on which I coded 100 lines out of 500) but no one else did it
The horizontal pivots part are coming from Backtest Rookies
For more security, you can add a pullback on a moving average after getting a signal. Pullbacks are necessary to limit any eventual loss or maximize your gains by getting in the trend sooner.
I really give you a solid method and a great script in my opinion. 6 years of experience given away for FREE :p (when Dave will start thinking as a business man instead :O)
Does it repaint ?
Getting this question twice a day. You guys are obsessed with the repainting :)
Short answer, yes because it will calculate the pivots and zig zags whenever new higher highs/lower lows will be formed.
However, the trend direction code is based on the candle close so it shouldn't repaint. If it does, please let me know
See you all on Monday
Love you all
Dave

QuantNomad - Ultimate Pivot Points AlertsCreated a universal script for pivot points alerts.
In the script, you can choose one of 4 pivot point types: Traditional, Fibonacci, Woodie, and Camarilla.
You are able to create separate alerts for every level or create one for price crossing any level.
For separate levels, you can choose: "Cross", "Crossover" and "Crossunder".
You can also choose to show/hide:
Historical Levels
Levels Values
Current Levels - Levels calculated on the current period, on close of the period they will become valid levels for next periods. These levels do not participate in alerts calculations.
Because of some TradingView limitations, alerts won't be fired for the first bar of the session.
In the script used new v4 plotting features, so will be able to plot levels and labels nicely. Unfortunately, there is a limit on the number of consecutive lines you can plot on the plot (around 50), so historical lines in the past will disappear after 6-7 periods.
And remember:
Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Traditional Pivot Points AlertsCreated a script for alerts on Traditional Pivot Points.
You will be able to create separate alerts for every level or create one for price crossing any level.
Because of some TradingView limitations, alerts won't be fired for the first bar of the session. Will try to solve that in the new versions.
In the script used new v4 plotting features, so will be able to plot levels and labels nicely. Unfortunately, there is a limit on the number of consecutive lines you can plot on the plot (around 50), so lines in the past will disappear.
You can enable/disable in params displaying level itself on the chart.

Fibonacci Pivot Points AlertsCreated a script for alerts on Fibonacci Pivot Points.
You will be able to create separate alerts for every level or create one for price crossing any level.

QuantNomad - Pivot Points AlertsVery simple scripts that will allow you to receive alerts for new Pivot Lows/Highs Points.
A solid arrow points to actual point low/high point, transparent - to the bar, you'll receive alerts for (Shifter by rightBars).

Pivot Points, by @juanmirocks# Advantages over TV's indicator "Pivot Points Standard"
1. Show pivot lines for all history, which lets you gauge trading strategies throughout time
2. More sensible Default/Auto time frame; e.g. on intradays only and always the market values of yesterday's Day are used
3. The halves between the key levels are also shown, which it's useful for some trading strategies
4. Arguably out-of-the-box nicer interface
Pivot Points as an indicator is a traditional strategy to draw resistance and support levels. It's best suited for intraday trading: the pivot points and resulting key levels are calculated from yesterday's market values (H, L, C). More details in the script's source.
Pivot Points trading is suitable for any market, and best for intraday (e.g. 3 min).
Combined MTF Camarilla Pivots (HA + Candles)This is a fairly basic (but hopefully useful) indicator that combines three time-frames of Camarilla pivots into one.
Default time-frames are:
Weekly
Monthly
Yearly
Time-frames can be modified as you wish, they are just set to these as I generally only trade higher intervals (just note that formatting labels will not change - but you can update these as needed).
The Camarilla pivots displayed are as follows:
R3, R4, R5, R6
Pivot line (Middle/Base)
S3, S4, S5, S6
R1/S1 & R2/S2 are excluded to make way for R5/S5 & R6/S6 - as these are more useful for the majority of traders. The formula for levels 5/6 are always up for debate, as no official formula has ever been released. I've used what I consider a mid, or consensus calculation.
By default all historical pivot levels are displayed, as there can be some benefit to mapping these forward once the relevant period has ended. If people find it's too cluttered I'll look into having an option to display the current period only.
Unfortunately, TradingView doesn't allow labels on plots (seems like such a basic feature to be missing, but there you go), so you'll have to learn the colours/linewidths.
Oh, and there's a checkbox to enable pivots to be calculated on Heiken-Ashi prices/candles rather than default prices/candles. This heavily modifies the location of the Camarilla Pivots, but I've found that in certain situations you can get some great results.
Let me know your thoughts/comments/suggestions.
Cheers

Pivot Point + MidPointsTraditional floor pivots with additional lines in between the s/r levels called Mid Points
If the Pivot Points are used as entering at s/r levels, you can use the Mid Points to scale out of a position or place Sl's behind
Pivot Reversal Strategy with backtest date rangeThis is standard Pivot Reversal Strategy with backtest date range added.
In parameters you can select from/to date for backtesting range.
Auto DayWeekMonth Fib Levels R2 by JustUncleLThis indicator automatically draws up to Three Sets of Fibonacci Pivot levels based on the previous Candle period's Range (High-Low). The HLC3 is used as the default Pivotal level. Only the most Recent period Candle Levels are displayed. The longer Weekly and Monthly sets are particularly useful in finding long term Supply and Demand levels.
The three sets of selectable periods are spit into the following sets:
Daily Set (1,2,3,4,5,7,10 or 14 Days)
Weekly Set (1,2,3,4,5,10, or 13 Weeks)
Monthly Set (1,2,3,4,5,6,9 or 12 months)
Each set has the option to display Extension levels.
The Pivotal Level HLC3 and Range = (High - Low), are extracted from previous Period Candle.
FIB LEVELS Colours (same in each period set):
Yellow = Pivot and Pivot Zone (HLC3 by default)
Fuchsia = R1,S1 Levels 0.368 * Range
Lime = R2,S2 Levels 0.618 * Range
Red = R3,S3 Levels 0.786 * Range
Aqua = R4,S4 Levels 1.000 * Range
Green = R5,S5 Levels 1.236 * Range
Orange = R6,S6 Levels 1.382 * Range
Black = R7,S7 Levels 1.618 * Range
Maroon = R8,S8 Levels 2.000 * Range
