Previous Day High Low Strategy only for LongWelcome to the "Previous Day High Low Strategy only for Long"!.
This strategy aims to identify potential long trading opportunities based on the previous day's high and low prices, along with certain market strength conditions.
Key Features:
Entry Conditions: The strategy triggers a long position when the current day's closing price crosses above the previous day's high or low.

Explanation of how the strategy works
1. Previous Day's High and Low (HH, LL):
In this strategy, we start by obtaining the high and low prices of the previous day (not the current day) using the request.security function. This function allows us to access historical data for a specific time frame. The high and low prices are stored in the variables HH and LL, respectively.
2. Entry Conditions:
The strategy uses two conditions to trigger a long position:
Condition 1 (Long Condition 1): If the closing price of the current day crosses above the previous day's high (HH), it generates a long signal. This is achieved using the ta.crossover function, which detects when a crossover occurs.
Condition 2 (Long Condition 2): Similarly, if the closing price of the current day crosses above the previous day's low (LL), it also generates a long signal.
Combined Condition: To take long positions, the strategy combines both long conditions using the logical OR operator (or). This means that if either of the two conditions is met, a long position will be initiated.
3. Market Strength Filter:
The strategy also includes a filter based on the Average Directional Index (ADX) to gauge the market's strength before taking long positions. The ADX measures the strength of a trend in the market. The higher the ADX value, the stronger the trend.
Calculation of ADX: The ADX is calculated using the adx function, which takes two parameters: LWdilength (DMI Length) and LWadxlength (ADX period).
Strength Condition (strength_up): The strategy requires that the ADX value should be above a threshold (11 in this case) and that there is a predominance of upward movement (up > down) before initiating a long position. The LWADX value is multiplied by 2.5 and compared to the highest value of LWADX from the last 4 periods using ta.highest(LWADX , 4). If these conditions are met, the variable strength_up is set to true.
Combined Condition: The strength_up condition is then combined with the long conditions using the logical AND operator (and). This means that the strategy will only take a long position if both the long conditions and the market strength condition are met.
4. Trade Timing:
The strategy sets a specific trade window between 09:30 and 15:10. It will only execute trades within this time frame (TradeTime).
5. Risk Management:
The strategy implements dynamic stop-loss (SL) and profit-taking levels (T1, T2, T3) based on a user-defined Max Profit value. The stop-loss is set as a percentage of the Max Profit value. As the position moves in favor of the trader, the profit targets are adjusted accordingly.
6. Position Management:
The strategy uses the strategy.entry function to enter long positions based on the combined entry conditions. Once a position is open, the script uses strategy.exit to define the exit condition when either the profit target or stop-loss level is hit. The strategy.close function is used to close any open position at the end of the trade window (15:15).
7. Plotting:
The strategy uses the plot function to visualize the previous day's high and low prices, as well as the stop-loss (SL) and profit-taking (T1, T2, T3) levels on the chart.
Overall, the "Previous Day High Low Strategy only for Long" aims to identify potential long trading opportunities based on the previous day's price action and market strength conditions. However, as with any trading strategy, it's essential to thoroughly test it and consider risk management before applying it to real-world trading scenarios.

52 Week High/Low FibonacciThe primary purpose of this indicator is to calculate and plot the 52-week high and low prices along with the Fibonacci retracement levels on the price chart. Fibonacci levels are commonly used in trading to identify potential support, resistance, and price reversal points.
First, the script initializes the Fibonacci levels and their corresponding colors, which will be used to plot the levels on the chart. Next, it calculates the 52-week high and low prices by finding the highest and lowest prices over the last 252 trading days, approximately equivalent to one year. Then, it identifies the overall trend direction by comparing the number of bars since the highest high and the lowest low. If the highest high is more recent, the trend is considered downwards; if the lowest low is more recent, the trend is upwards.
The script then plots the Fibonacci retracement levels on the chart, using horizontal lines at the respective price levels. It also creates labels for each level, displaying the percentage and the price value. Additionally, it draws a line connecting the 52-week high and low prices, providing a visual representation of the price range during the 52-week period.
Pros of this indicator include:
-Automatic calculation and plotting of Fibonacci levels, saving time for traders
-Clear trend identification based on 52-week high and low prices
-Visually appealing and easy-to-read chart representation with color-coded levels
-Provides insight into potential price reversal areas based on widely used Fibonacci levels
Cons of this indicator include:
-Only works on daily timeframes, limiting its usefulness for intraday and weekly traders
-Assumes that the trend will continue in the same direction, which may not always be accurate in real-world markets
-Does not provide explicit buy or sell signals, leaving the trading decision-making process up to the trader
-Solely relies on Fibonacci levels, which may not always be accurate; it is recommended to use other technical indicators or strategies alongside this indicator for a comprehensive trading approach
In conclusion, the '52 Week High Low Fibonacci' indicator is a valuable tool for traders interested in using Fibonacci levels for identifying potential price reversal points. By automatically calculating and plotting these levels based on 52-week high and low prices, the indicator provides a clear, color-coded visual aid, which can be especially helpful for traders who base their strategies on these levels.
However, it's worth noting that this indicator is limited to daily timeframes and doesn't provide explicit buy or sell signals, requiring traders to incorporate their own analysis and judgement in their decision-making process. The indicator also operates on the assumption of trend continuation, which may not always hold true.
While it's a beneficial tool, relying solely on this indicator for trading decisions may not be advisable. It's best used in conjunction with other indicators and trading strategies, providing a more balanced and comprehensive approach to trading in the financial markets. As always, risk management should be a key part of any trading strategy.

Filter-Out Weak Pivot highs/lows, Swing highs/lows: MethodJust a simple indicator for refining the standard method of finding Pivot highs & Lows; Allowing user to filter-out weak/flat/rounded Pivot highs/lows
-Aim of this is to get pivot highs & pivot lows coded to print more in line with what the eye would naturally be drawn to as an obvious pivot high/low.
-This uses local moving average around the pivot high/low together with user-input ATR multiple, to create a condition for filtering out lacklustre pivot highs/lows.
-Thought i'd publish this separately as a tool that other coders might find useful.

HTF High/Low Repaint StrategyHere is an another attempt to demonstrate repainting and how to avoid them. It happened few times to me that I develop a strategy which is giving immense returns - only to realize after few forward testing that it is repainting. Sometimes, it is well disguised even during forward testing.
In this simple strategy, conditions are as below:
Buy : When a 3M bar produces high and low higher than it's previous 3M bar high, low
Sell : When a 3M bar produces high and low lower than its previous 3M bar high, low.
Default setting is : lookahead = on and offset = 0
This means current 3M bar high low is plotted for all the daily bars within this month. Which means, strategy looks ahead of time to see this 3M bar high is higher than previous 3M bar high during the start of the first daily bar. Hence, this combination leads to massive repaint.
For example, trade made on October 2nd 2018 already knows well ahead of time that price is going to go down in next 3 months:
Similarly, after 2 years on October 2nd 2020 - the strategy already knows that last 3M high is going to be breached on 7th December 2020
Solution: If you are using security for higher timeframes, safer option is always to use offset 1. Further details in the trading view script:
BUT
It may still repaint if we are passing function to security.
For example:
f_secureSecurity(_symbol, _res, _src) => security(_symbol, _res, _src , lookahead = barmerge.lookahead
This function will likely avoid any repainting with Higher timeframe if we are passing in built variables such as high, low, close, open etc. But, if we try to pass supertrend, this will not produce right results. This is because supertrend calculation in turn uses high/low/close values which do not consider the offset while calculating. Hence, even with offset 1, this will still produce issues.
Hence, the call:
= f_secureSecurity(syminfo.tickerid, derivedResolution, supertrend(3,10), offset) will again lead to massive repainting. Solution to this is to implement supertrend function and use high, low, close values derived from secureSecurity.
Quick tips to identify or be suspicious about repainting
Unbelievable results on all timeframes and all instruments with both long and short trades
Lower timeframes giving significantly higher returns on backtest when compared to higher timeframe
If these things happen, be wary about repainting and do a through check of all security function usage in your strategy.
All the best :)
PS: Apply 3-5 days resolution and see the fun. Also, WHC is one hell of a Christmas tree. Could have made immense profit in the same strategy even without repainting.

⯁ CONCLUSION
The Swing High/Low (ZigZag) Indicator is a powerful tool for traders seeking to visualize price swings and market structure. Its real-time updates, customizable settings, and dynamic swing direction make it an invaluable resource for technical analysis and decision-making.
Breakout Detector (Previous MTF High Low Levels) [LuxAlgo]The Breakout Detector (Previous MTF High Low Levels) indicator highlights breakouts of previous high/low levels from a higher timeframe.
The indicator is able to: display take-profit/stop-loss levels based on a user selected Win/Loss ratio, detect false breakouts, and display a dashboard with various useful statistics.
Do note that previous high/low levels are subject to backpainting, that is they are drawn retrospectively in their corresponding location. Other elements in the script are not subject to backpainting.
🔶 USAGE
Breakouts occur when the price closes above a previous Higher Timeframe (HTF) High or below a previous HTF Low.
On the advent of a breakout, the closing price acts as an entry level at which a Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) are placed. When a TP or SL level is reached, the SL/TP box border is highlighted.
When there is a breakout in the opposite direction of an active breakout, previous breakout levels stop being updated. Not reaching an SL/TP level will result in a partial loss/win,
which will result in the box being highlighted with a dotted border (default). This can also be set as a dashed or solid border.
Detection of False Breakouts (default on) can be helpful to avoid false positives, these can also be indicative of potential trend reversals.
This indicator contains visualization when a new HTF interval begins (thick vertical grey line) and a dashboard for reviewing the breakout results (both defaults enabled; and can be disabled).
As seen in the example above, the active, open breakout is colored green/red.
You can enable the setting ' Cancel TP/SL at the end of HTF ', which will stop updating previous TP/SL levels on the occurrence of a new HTF interval.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Principles
Every time a new timeframe period starts, the previous high and low are detected of the higher timeframe. On that bar only there won't be a breakout detection.
A breakout is confirmed when the close price breaks the previous HTF high/low
A breakout in the same direction as the active breakout is ignored.
A breakout in the opposite direction stops previous breakout levels from being updated.
Take Profit/Stop Loss, partially or not, will be highlighted in an easily interpretable manner.
🔹 Set Higher Timeframe
There are 2 options for choosing a higher timeframe:
• Choose a specific higher timeframe (in this example, Weekly higher TF on a 4h chart)
• Choose a multiple of the current timeframe (in this example, 75 minutes TF on a 15 min chart - 15 x 5)
Do mind, that when using this option, non-standard TFs can give less desired timeframe changes.
🔹 Setting Win/Loss Levels
The Stop Loss (SL) / Take Profit (TP) setting has 2 options:
W%:L% : A fixed percentage is chosen, for TP and SL.
W:L : In this case L (Loss-part) is set through Loss Settings , W (Win-part) is calculated by multiplying L , for example W : L = 2 : 1, W will be twice as large as the L .
🔹 Loss Settings
The last drawing at the right is still active (colored green/red)
The Loss part can be:
A multiple of the Average True Range (ATR) of the last 200 bars.
A multiple of the Range Cumulative Mean (RCM).
The Latest Swing (with Length setting)
Range Cumulative Mean is the sum of the Candle Range (high - low) divided by its bar index.
🔹 False Breakouts
A False Breakout is confirmed when the price of the bar immediately after the breakout bar returns above/below the breakout level.
🔹 Dashboard
🔶 ALERTS
This publication provides several alerts
Bullish/Bearish Breakout: A new Breakout.
Bullish/Bearish False Breakout: False Breakout detected, 1 bar after the Breakout.
Bullish/Bearish TP: When the TP/profit level has been reached.
Bullish/Bearish Fail: When the SL/stop-loss level has been reached.
Note that when a new Breakout causes the previous Breakout to stop being updated, only an alert is provided of the new Breakout.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Set Higher Timeframe
Option : HTF/Mult
HTF : When HTF is chosen as Option , set the Higher Timeframe (higher than current TF)
Mult : When Mult is chosen as Option , set the multiple of current TF (for example 3, curr. TF 15min -> 45min)
🔹 Set Win/Loss Level
SL/TP : W:L or W%:L%: Set the Win/Loss Ratio (Take Profit/Stop Loss)

Last 10 Sessions: High, Low, Pivot, GapLast 10 Sessions: High, Low, Pivot, Gap
This indicator highlights the most important price levels from the last 10 completed trading sessions to help intraday and swing traders quickly spot potential support, resistance, and price reaction zones.
Key Features:
Previous Highs and Lows : Visualize the high and low from each of the past 10 sessions. These are the most commonly tested breakout and reversal points for day trading.
Session Pivots: The classic pivot formula ((High + Low + Close) / 3) for each of the last 10 sessions, often acting as a market “equilibrium” or intraday magnet.
Gaps: Displays the difference between each day’s open and the previous session’s close (“gap”), showing sentiment shifts and possible gap fill targets.
Clean, Faded Visuals: All lines and labels are subtly faded so your chart remains clear and uncluttered, with each level labeled by how many sessions ago it occurred.
Full Customization: Instantly toggle any level type (High, Low, Pivot, Gap) ON/OFF in settings, extend lines to the right, and adjust their forward length.
Bulletproof Logic: Never throws runtime errors. Lines and labels only display when valid data is present.
How to Use:
Use recent highs/lows for breakout, breakdown, or mean reversion trades.
Spot where multiple levels from past sessions cluster together for high-probability reversal or breakout areas.
Watch pivots for intraday bias, and gaps for sentiment and possible fill plays.
Perfect for all intraday timeframes.
If you want a powerful yet minimal map of where price is most likely to react, this indicator is for you!
Developed by
Larry Connors 3 Day High/Low StrategyThe Larry Connors 3 Day High/Low Strategy is a short-term mean-reversion trading strategy that is designed to identify potential buying opportunities when a security is oversold. This strategy is based on the principles developed by Larry Connors, a well-known trading system developer and author.
Key Strategy Elements:
1. Trend Confirmation: The strategy first confirms that the security is in a long-term uptrend by ensuring that the closing price is above the 200-day moving average (condition1). This rule helps filter trades to align with the longer-term trend.
2. Short-Term Pullback: The strategy looks for a short-term pullback by ensuring that the closing price is below the 5-day moving average (condition2). This identifies potential entry points when the price temporarily moves against the longer-term trend.
3. Three Consecutive Lower Highs and Lows:
• The high and low two days ago are lower than those of the day before (condition3).
• The high and low yesterday are lower than those of two days ago (condition4).
• Today’s high and low are lower than yesterday’s (condition5).
These conditions are used to identify a sequence of declining highs and lows, signaling a short-term pullback or oversold condition in the context of an overall uptrend.
4. Entry and Exit Signals:
• Buy Signal: A buy order is triggered when all the above conditions are met (buyCondition).
• Sell Signal: A sell order is executed when the closing price is above the 5-day moving average (sellCondition), indicating that the pullback might be ending.
Risks of the Strategy
1. Mean Reversion Failure: This strategy relies on the assumption that prices will revert to the mean after a short-term pullback. In strong downtrends or during market crashes, prices may continue to decline, leading to significant losses.
2. Whipsaws and False Signals: The strategy may generate false signals, especially in choppy or sideways markets where the price does not follow a clear trend. This can lead to frequent small losses that can add up over time.
3. Dependence on Historical Patterns: The strategy is based on historical price patterns, which do not always predict future price movements accurately. Sudden market news or economic changes can disrupt the pattern.
4. Lack of Risk Management: The strategy as written does not include stop losses or position sizing rules, which can expose traders to larger-than-expected losses if conditions change rapidly.

Break of High/Low with Volume, MACD, and MAsHow It Works:
Sessions:
The London session is defined between 8:00 and 16:00 UTC.
The New York session is defined between 13:00 and 21:00 UTC.
Previous High/Low:
The script identifies the highest high and lowest low from the previous bar using ta.highest(high, 1) and ta.lowest(low, 1) .
Candle Body Size:
The script calculates the size of the current candle's body and checks if it is at least double the size of the previous candle's body.
Volume Check:
A high volume threshold is set as 1.5 times the 50-period SMA of the volume.
MACD Crossover:
The script calculates the MACD and its signal line and checks for bullish (buy) or bearish (sell) crossovers.
Signals:
A long signal (buy) is generated if the price breaks the previous high with a large body candle, high volume, and a bullish MACD crossover during the specified sessions.
A short signal (sell) is generated if the price breaks the previous low with a large body candle, high volume, and a bearish MACD crossover during the specified sessions.
Plotting:
The 50-period and 200-period moving averages, previous high, and previous low are plotted on the chart.
If a long condition is met, a "BUY" label is displayed below the bar. If a short condition is met, a "SELL" label is displayed above the bar.
Alerts:
Alerts are triggered whenever the conditions for a long or short trade are met.
Customization:
Feel free to adjust the session times, volume threshold, MACD settings, or moving averages based on your trading strategy or the specific asset you are trading.
HTF Highs Lows [JV]█ OVERVIEW
This script presents a label with an overview of higher timeframe highs and lows. This can be useful information as we all know that price likes to revisit previous highs and lows area, specially on the higher timeframe.
█ CONCEPTS
This information can be relevant and valuable for various reasons:
Finding horizontal Support and Resistance
Get a better view on Market Structure
Provide some information about Order Flow
TrendLines
...
█ FEATURES
Plots
This script provides the option to show information about 3 timeframes
Each timeframe can be separately shown or hidden
The Y position of the info label can be user defined, based on high or low of the chosen timeframe
The X offset of the info label can be adjusted to the user's liking and the chart resolution
The label color and text color can be user defined
The info label's size can be user defined
█ NOTES
Caveat
The timeframes must be chosen in order of size. Meaning that the highest timeframe should be on top. This is title as such on the info label, but I want to mention it again as it's something to pay attention to.
Repainting
The question that pops up all the time is: Does it repaint ?
I will quote PineCoders on this:
We're pretty sure Wilder was not asked very often if RSI repainted. Why? Because it wasn't in fashion—and largely unnecessary—to ask that sort of question in the 80's. Many traders back then used daily charts only, and indicator values were calculated at the day's close, so everybody knew what they were getting. Additionally, indicator values were calculated by generally reputable outfits or traders themselves, so data was pretty reliable. Today, almost anybody can write a simple indicator, and the programming languages used to write them are complex enough for some coders lacking the caution, know-how or ethics of the best professional coders, to get in over their heads and produce code that does not work the way they think it does.
Briefly: yes, it repaints and no it does not matter.
Simple because we are working with highs and lows on a higher timeframe. So if we get a new high or low within a certain time frame, we want this new high or low to be displayed and, for me, it's not relevant if this information appears when it happens or when the candle closes.

GeeksDoByte 15m & 30m ORB + Prev Day High/LowCME_MINI:NQ1!
How It Works
Opening Ranges
At 9:30 ET, the script begins tracking the high & low.
It uses two fixed sessions:
15 min from 09:30 to 09:45
30 min from 09:30 to 10:00
On the very first bar of each session it initializes the range, then continuously updates the high/low on each new intraday bar.
Dashed lines are drawn when the session opens and extended horizontally across subsequent bars.
Previous Day’s Levels
Independently, it fetches yesterday’s high and low via a daily security call.
These historic levels are plotted as simple horizontal lines for daily context.
How to Use
Breakout Entries
A close above the 15 min ORB high can signal an early breakout; a further push above the 30 min ORB high confirms extended momentum.
Conversely, breaks below the respective lows can indicate short setups.
Support & Resistance
Yesterday’s high/low often act as magnet levels. If price is near the previous high when the opening ranges break, you get a confluence zone worth watching.
Trade Management
Combine the two opening-range levels to tier your stops or scale in.
For example, you might place an initial stop below the 15 min low and a wider stop below the 30 min low.
