HOLP/LOHPThe HOLP strategy was developed by trader-author John F. Carter in his book 'Mastering the trade: proven techniques for profiting from intraday and swing trading set ups' (ISBN 0-07-145958-8). The strategy, which gives buy signals, is a reversal strategy. Reversal strategies try to determine the point in time when a trend reverses direction. In his book John F. Carter is actually skeptical of taking a position against the trend, quoting classics like "never catch a falling knife" (buy a steep sell off) and "never step in front of a train" (short sell a strong market). Given his skepticism he decides to base his strategy on the one single factor which he deems relevant: the market price.
Reversal
Inverse BandsThis was the result of quite some time spent examining how much information could be gleamed by studying the interactions between Keltner Channels, STARC Bands and Bollinger Bands. I was surprised by the results.
First of all, there are four fills that are black. Set the transparency of those to 0 and you'll see this indicator the way that it's meant to be seen. Those fills belong to unused sections of the Bollinger Bands.
There are two clouds which represent STARC Bands and the Keltner Channel. There is some delay when they flip from bullish (green) to bearish (red), but they are indicative of the trend. The space between them is black and the narrower that space is, the greater volatility is. Because of this, we don't need the exterior Bollinger Bands.
The Bollinger Bands remain visible as the yellow interior clouds on the top cloud and the blue interior clouds on the bottom cloud. Often, the thicker the yellow or blue cloud is, the less severe a throwback from a given trend reversal will be. Often the thinner that yellow or blue cloud is, the more severe the trend reversal will be. If price is rising into a thin interior yellow cloud, the following dip will be substantial. If price action dips towards a thicker interior blue cloud, often the pump following that dump will be less enthusiastic.
We preserve the Keltner Channel and STARC bands as our cloud because the way that they interact with the three basis lines yields a lot of information.
The yellow Bollinger basis line tells us about trend strength. The closer the BB basis line is to the top of the top cloud or the bottom of the bottom cloud, the stronger the trend is. When it enters the cloud very close to the bottom of the bottom cloud, you know you're looking at a strong pump, and vice versa when it's close to the top of the top cloud.
The purple Keltner Channel basis line and orange STARC Band basis line can forecast short term trend changes one candlestick in advance by contacting any line in either cloud. The moment either basis line touches or crosses any boundary of the clouds, you know that the next candle will change directions. In an uptrend, a touch or cross means the next candle will have a lower high point. In a downtrend, a cross or touch means the next candle will have a higher high point. This is most useful in scalping.
It'd be pretty easy to slap some crossover alerts on to this and useful considering that they come a candle in advance. Feel free to further explore and develop this.
[blackcat] L1 Swing Reversal IndicatorLevel: 1
Background
Many asked me about swing reversal indicators. There are many but less of them can guarantee high win rate. Because market is complex, the reversals can be nested together, which means sub level reversals will be contained in higher level waves. This can be well explained by Elloit wave theory.
Function
Here it is a simple moving average based swing reversal indicator as an example for many others to improve it. Although it simple, it could be very powerful to dedicated trading pairs in specific time frame. One can adjust N1~N4 as SMA peiords from short to long to customized this indicator or even by trying different moving average types to enhance its accuracy.
Key Signal
N1~N4 --> SMA look back periods
OB --> Overbought Threshold
OS --> Oversold Threshold
Pros and Cons
Simpe but powerful. More feedbacks are appreciated.
Remarks
Easy to be customized or integrated to your trading system.
Readme
In real life, I am a prolific inventor. I have successfully applied for more than 60 international and regional patents in the past 12 years. But in the past two years or so, I have tried to transfer my creativity to the development of trading strategies. Tradingview is the ideal platform for me. I am selecting and contributing some of the hundreds of scripts to publish in Tradingview community. Welcome everyone to interact with me to discuss these interesting pine scripts.
The scripts posted are categorized into 5 levels according to my efforts or manhours put into these works.
Level 1 : interesting script snippets or distinctive improvement from classic indicators or strategy. Level 1 scripts can usually appear in more complex indicators as a function module or element.
Level 2 : composite indicator/strategy. By selecting or combining several independent or dependent functions or sub indicators in proper way, the composite script exhibits a resonance phenomenon which can filter out noise or fake trading signal to enhance trading confidence level.
Level 3 : comprehensive indicator/strategy. They are simple trading systems based on my strategies. They are commonly containing several or all of entry signal, close signal, stop loss, take profit, re-entry, risk management, and position sizing techniques. Even some interesting fundamental and mass psychological aspects are incorporated.
Level 4 : script snippets or functions that do not disclose source code. Interesting element that can reveal market laws and work as raw material for indicators and strategies. If you find Level 1~2 scripts are helpful, Level 4 is a private version that took me far more efforts to develop.
Level 5 : indicator/strategy that do not disclose source code. private version of Level 3 script with my accumulated script processing skills or a large number of custom functions. I had a private function library built in past two years. Level 5 scripts use many of them to achieve private trading strategy.
Whole NumbersThis is a simple indicator for the whole numbers.
It breaks down every pair for 10 pips.
Its also simple and nice to use

Small Buy Signal (B1 & B2)
Printed if some of the confirmations are triggered and can be treated as DCA entries or for further
confirmation with other indicators and basic TA.
Crayons (Color Bars):
Blue: RSI is oversold
Olive: RSI and Stoch RSI are oversold
Yellow: RSI, Stoch RSI are oversold and lower Bollinger Bands are crossed by Low
Orange: RSI, Stoch RSI and CCI are oversold

If activated in the config, a trailing SL can be displayed on the chart based on ATR.
█ SETTINGS
The underlying indicators used are RSI, Stoch RSI, Bollinger Bands, MACD and CCI.
All possible configs can be changed in the config settings.
█ GENERAL INFORMATION
Depending on the settings, the indicator performance will be highly affected.
This indicator is only displaying highly oversold areas and events of trend reversal it is not a *God*-Signal and will print false positives.
█ ALERTS
An alert for the main buy-signal is implemented and can be used via the TV alert functionality.
Overnight Bollinger Band ExtremesThis script is a combination of my overnight fakeout script and bollinger band color bars. It's designed to be used on CME/CBOT Equity Indexes during their GLOBEX session. It uses the built in Bollinger Band script and highlights bars that exceed the upper/lower bands during the overnight session.
Keltner Channels Color BarsAnother tweak to a classic built-in script. Simply replacing the Keltner Channels overlay plot with color bars.
Equity Index Overnight FakeoutThis script highlights when price violates the highest high or lowest low within the user's selected lookback period, with the caveat that it occurs during the GLOBEX session. The script is designed to work exclusively with the trading hours for CME and CBOT Equity Index futures. I'm planning to make a more customizable version down the line.
My reasoning behind this very simple script is that the low liquidity and participation of the overnight session creates a tendency for moves at extremes to mean revert. Let me know what you think.
Vision VolumeAfter reading an article on how to trade volume I felt that I needed some kind of indicator using price action and volume together.
More precisely I tried to build two indicators. Bear in mind this indactor is very simple because it only evaluates each bar with its previous bar and an average.
Nr.1 Weak/fake push: Price suddenly goes up/down a lot more but without much volume being traded -> sign of a fake move or low interest
Nr 2 Price action resistance: After an up or down move price suddenly stops moving but high volumes are being traded. This means high resistance from sellers in a rally or buyers in a decline.
This is very simple and as you can see it is often not a clear signal. I will try to improve it further. If a fake move bar (purple) has a close near its new high we don't know if the fake push will continue. As you can see on the chart. some reversal signs come a little to early.
You can re-color labels and turn them off optionally.
This is built for educational purposes only. I hope you find it useful.

ZigZag with Fibonacci LevelsHello Traders,
This is " ZigZag with Fibonacci Levels " script. It finds the ZigZag, draw Fibonacci lines and put labels accordingly. I get many requests for this script, so here it is.
You can set ZigZag period as you wish. Bigger numbers (such 20, 30) may give better perspective and result.
It draws Fibonacci levels between 0%-100% and If the price goes higher/lower than 100% level than the script draws Fibonacci Levels accordingly. This means it draws Fibonacci levels until this levels get higher/lower than the price.
As an example:
if you don't want to see ZigZag Lines then you have option to disable it and see only Fibonacci levels:
You have coloring options for Zigzag, Fibonacci lines and texts:
Enjoy!
Bjorgum RSIRSI output signals are displayed with color change to reflect the plotted value. This makes evaluating RSI conditions require but a glance.
RSI momentum buy signals are given on the cross of the 50 level, whereas sell signals are given on a fall below.
Default values a 5 period RSI which gives more timely entrances and exits for swing traders. This can be adjusted to the typical 14 period if the viewer desires slower signals.
Bullish and bearish area is shaded to accentuate the signal to the eye.
Excellent results can be found when coupling BJ RSI, with BJ TSI, and the reversal system using all 3 as a complete together simultaneously
Default color changes are plotted as a recorded value falls within the following levels:
RSI < 30 = green
RSI 30-50 = red
RSI 50-70 = blue
RSI 70-80 = yellow
RSI 80-90 = orange
RSI 90-100 = white hot
Bjorgum TSI-This script utilizes simple color changes of the TSI output signals to aid in interpretation of the classic TSI indicator.
-Crosses of the TSI value line and signal line are a bullish or bearish indication. TSI value line is colored green or yellow to help identify that the TSI value line is either dropping or rising, while over or under the signal line.
-This can help anticipate a cross, or significant points in the trend. TSI signal line changes color when rising or falling which can help to identify larger prevailing trends.
-Generally, a rising signal line can be an overall bullish move, while falling more bearish regardless of crosses.
*Resolution function enables multiple overlay for "Multi-timeframe analysis"*
Bjorgum TSI Arrows
This script is intended to help the viewer identify potential turning points with momentum "headwinds" or "tailwinds" with a visual que at the bar level. The presence of arrows indicates that the TSI indicator is either "curling" up under the signal line, or "curling" down over the signal line. This can help to anticipate reversals, or moves in favor of trend direction.
Multiple script overlays can be used for "Multi-timeframe analysis" by altering the "resolution" feature.
eg: Viewer could enable 2 "Arrow" scripts while watching the daily timeframe, and setting one of them to indicate weekly conditions. This can help identify prevailing trend strength when using smaller timeframes.
TKP T3 Trend With Psar BarcolorThis script is adapted from TKP's long/short indicator to initiate buy/sell indications when price crosses the T3 moving averages, and when the T3's themselves cross. Bars change colors based on price over/under T3 and T3 up or down or This allows for simple visual analysis of trend direction along with entries, exits, and stop loss values.

This is another version of FVE indicator that we have posted earlier
in this forum.
This version has an important enhancement to the previous one that`s
especially useful with intraday minute charts.
Due to the volatility had not been taken into account to avoid the extra
complication in the formula, the previous formula has some drawbacks:
The main drawback is that the constant cutoff coefficient will overestimate
price changes in minute charts and underestimate corresponding changes in
weekly or monthly charts.
And now the indicator uses adaptive cutoff coefficient which will adjust to
all time frames automatically.

ArcTan Oscillator [LuxAlgo]The following indicator is a normalized oscillator making use of the arc tangent sigmoid function (ArcTan), this allows to "squarify" the output result, thus visually filtering out certain variations originally in the oscillator. The magnitude of this effect can be controlled by the user. The indicator contains a gradient that shows the possibility of a reversal, with red colors indicating that a reversal might occur.
Settings
Length : Period of the oscillator
Pre-Gain : Changes the amplitude of the oscillator before passing through the ArcTan function, this allows to amplify/reduce the "squarification" effect introduced by this function. In order to make it easier for the user, the setting is in a (-10,10) range, with negative values reducing the amplitude and positive one increasing it.
Src : Source input of the indicator
Usage
The oscillator can be used to determine the direction of the trend by looking at its sign, if the oscillator is positive, market is up-trending, else down-trending, based on this usage the user might not be interested to look at every variations produced by the oscillator, this is where the hyperbolic tangent function and pre-gain setting can be useful, by using an high value of pre-gain the user will be able to only focus on the sign of the oscillator.
Here pre-gain is set to 5, we can see that the oscillator is now easier to visualize. However, the use of sigmoid functions remove useful information for a trader that needs to find divergences, this is where using a negative value of the pre-gain setting will result useful.
Here pre-gain is set to -5.
The indicator makes use of a gradient to show potential reversals, this gradient is determined by the correlation between the oscillator and the price (this is a way to measure potential divergences). If the color is closer to red it means that a potential reversal might occur, it is possible to say in which direction price might go by looking at the sign of the oscillator, so if the gradient is red and the oscillator is negative price might rise. The gradient is not affected by the pre-gain setting.
Combo Strategy 123 Reversal & Fractal Chaos OscillatorThis is combo strategies for get a cumulative signal.
First strategy
This System was created from the Book "How I Tripled My Money In The
Futures Market" by Ulf Jensen, Page 183. This is reverse type of strategies.
The strategy buys at market, if close price is higher than the previous close
during 2 days and the meaning of 9-days Stochastic Slow Oscillator is lower than 50.
The strategy sells at market, if close price is lower than the previous close price
during 2 days and the meaning of 9-days Stochastic Fast Oscillator is higher than 50.
Second strategy
The value of Fractal Chaos Oscillator is calculated as the difference between
the most subtle movements of the market. In general, its value moves between
-1.000 and 1.000. The higher the value of the Fractal Chaos Oscillator, the
more one can say that it follows a certain trend – an increase in prices trend,
or a decrease in prices trend.
Being an indicator expressed in a numeric value, traders say that this is an
indicator that puts a value on the trendiness of the markets. When the FCO reaches
a high value, they initiate the “buy” operation, contrarily when the FCO reaches a
low value, they signal the “sell” action. This is an excellent indicator to use in
intra-day trading.

Combo Strategy 123 Reversal & Fractal Chaos Bands This is combo strategies for get a cumulative signal.
First strategy
This System was created from the Book "How I Tripled My Money In The

The strategy buys at market, if close price is higher than the previous close
during 2 days and the meaning of 9-days Stochastic Slow Oscillator is lower than 50.

Second strategy
Stock market moves in a highly chaotic way, but at a larger scale, the movements
follow a certain pattern that can be applied to shorter or longer periods of time
and we can use Fractal Chaos Bands Indicator to identify those patterns. Basically,
the Fractal Chaos Bands Indicator helps us to identify whether the stock market is
trending or not. When a market is trending, the bands will have a slope and if market
is not trending the bands will flatten out. As the slope of the bands decreases, it
signifies that the market is choppy, insecure and variable. As the graph becomes more
and more abrupt, be it going up or down, the significance is that the market becomes
trendy, or stable. Fractal Chaos Bands Indicator is used similarly to other bands-indicator
(Bollinger bands for instance), offering trading opportunities when price moves above or
under the fractal lines.
The FCB indicator looks back in time depending on the number of time periods trader selected
to plot the indicator. The upper fractal line is made by plotting stock price highs and the
lower fractal line is made by plotting stock price lows. Essentially, the Fractal Chaos Bands
show an overall panorama of the price movement, as they filter out the insignificant fluctuations
of the stock price.
