The Bar Counter Trend Reversal Strategy [TradeDots]Overview
The Bar Counter Trend Reversal Strategy is designed to identify potential counter-trend reversal points in the market after a series of consecutive rising or falling bars.
By analyzing price movements in conjunction with optional volume confirmation and channel bands (Bollinger Bands or Keltner Channels), this strategy aims to detect overbought or oversold conditions where a trend reversal may occur.
🔹How it Works
Consecutive Price Movements
Rising Bars: The strategy detects when there are a specified number of consecutive rising bars (No. of Rises).
Falling Bars: Similarly, it identifies a specified number of consecutive falling bars (No. of Falls).
Volume Confirmation (Optional)
When enabled, the strategy checks for increasing volume during the consecutive price movements, adding an extra layer of confirmation to the potential reversal signal.
Channel Confirmation (Optional)
Channel Type: Choose between Bollinger Bands ("BB") or Keltner Channels ("KC").
Channel Interaction: The strategy checks if the price interacts with the upper or lower channel lines: For short signals, it looks for price moving above the upper channel line. For long signals, it looks for price moving below the lower channel line.
Customization:
No. of Rises/Falls: Set the number of consecutive bars required to trigger a signal.
Volume Confirmation: Enable or disable volume as a confirmation factor.
Channel Confirmation: Enable or disable channel bands as a confirmation factor.
Channel Settings: Adjust the length and multiplier for the Bollinger Bands or Keltner Channels.
Visual Indicators:
Entry Signals: Triangles plotted on the chart indicate potential entry points:
Green upward triangle for long entries.
Red downward triangle for short entries.
Channel Bands: The upper and lower bands are plotted for visual reference.
Strategy Parameters:
Initial Capital: $10,000.
Position Sizing: 80% of equity per trade.
Commission: 0.01% per trade to simulate realistic trading costs.
🔹Usage
Set up the number of Rises/Falls and choose whether if you want to use channel indicators and volume as the confirmation.
Monitor the chart for triangles indicating potential entry points.
Consider the context of the overall market trend and other technical factors.
Backtesting and Optimization:
Use TradingView's Strategy Tester to evaluate performance.
Adjust parameters to optimize results for different market conditions.
🔹 Considerations and Recommendations
Risk Management:
The strategy does not include built-in stop-loss or take-profit levels. It's recommended to implement your own risk management techniques.
Market Conditions:
Performance may vary in different market environments. Testing and adjustments are advised when applying the strategy to new instruments or timeframes.
No Guarantee of Future Results:
Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always perform due diligence and consider the risks involved in trading.

The Pivot Channel Break indicator identifies key pivot points and creates a dynamic channel based on these pivots. It detects breakouts from this channel, providing potential entry and exit signals for traders.
🔵 How to Use
Channel Identification:
- Upper and lower channel lines drawn based on pivot highs and lows
- Channel width dynamically adjusted using ATR-like calculation
Breakout Signals:
- Upward breakout: Price closes above upper channel line
- Downward breakout: Price closes below lower channel line
- Signals shown as X marks on the chart
Pivot Points:
- High pivots marked with "H" triangles
- Low pivots marked with "L" triangles
Support & Resistance:
- Optional signals when price touches but doesn't break channel lines
Trend Visualization:
- Optional bar coloring based on the most recent breakout direction
🔵 Customization
• Pivot Right: Lookback period for pivot detection (default: 10)
• Pivot Left: Forward period for pivot confirmation (default: 40)
• Channel Width: Multiplier for channel width calculation (default: 1.0)

Set channel lines based on pivot points and calculated deviations
Identify breakouts when price crosses beyond channel lines
The Pivot Channel Break indicator offers a dynamic approach to identifying potential trend changes and breakout opportunities. It combines pivot point analysis with a flexible channel calculation, providing traders with a visual tool for market structure analysis. Use this indicator in conjunction with other technical analysis methods to confirm signals and manage risk effectively.
Quan Channel - Quan DaoI tried several channels, like the supertrend, ATR, Donchian or Bollingers, but they do not seem to fit my needs.
So I created a new channel to PREDICT the next impulse move of a price.
The current value of the top or bottom of the channel is based on 2 previous candles (not the candle itself), and it takes into account:
- The Direction of the previous candles (red or green) and
- The Width of their bodies
In my channel, the top or bottom lines will cover the price movement most of the time. But in some cases, when the price is on a big move, it will go out of the channel. And this is the time we need to consider a buy/sell (or take some profit) as well (not necessarily 100% of the time, though).
Personally, I like to use another oscillator in combination with this channel to predict whether it will reverse after the breakouts or continue to make another peak. If you are a DCA or long-term investor, I guess it would be safe to buy at the blue signals (out of bottom) and take some profits at the orange signals (out of top).
I also added an alert when the price breaks out of the channel for easier tracking.
TP-Plus IndicatorThis indicator calculates the current price range.
Calculate the slope or angle of the price velocity for both the fast and the slow period.
You can use it to spot the top and bottom of the range and wait for the price to break out of either level.
Once above the level top level or below bottom level, the price would move approximately the same distance as the height of the range.
MTF Fair Value Gap [BigBeluga]The MTF Fair Value Gap (FVG) indicator provides multi-timeframe options to observe lower or higher gaps in different timeframes within your current one. This can enhance the confluence in your trading decisions.
🔶 USAGE
An FVG is formed when a candle has an 'empty' body, leaving a gap. These areas are often filled before the market continues to trend in its original direction.
In practical terms, FVGs serve to highlight support areas (bullish FVGs) and resistance zones (bearish FVGs). As a gap is filled, signaling the end of the existing imbalance, it tends to foreshadow an impending price reversal.
While this approach is inherently contrarian, individuals seeking a more trend-following strategy can opt to use FVG identification as straightforward signals. This entails taking a long position upon detecting a bullish FVG and adopting a short position in the presence of a bearish FVG.
🔹 Mitigation
The mitigation point is where the user selects when the FVG is considered filled or no longer usable.
Source => Choose the candle's low/high or close as the mitigation point.
Point => Choose the FVG's mitigation point to trigger after the candle's Source has filled it. Users can choose between the middle point or the top/bottom of the FVG.
ccc
🔹 MTF
This script can display MTF FVGs from different timeframes while showing the current one. This is extremely useful as it avoids the need to switch timeframes frequently and can add significant confluence with the current FVG.
🔹 Threshold
The Threshold is an input to remove insignificant FVGs that are too small to be truly useful. Users can choose between:
Auto => Automatically remove unusable FVGs.
Manual => Set an automatic Threshold.
🔶 TIPS
Users can choose how many FVGs to display on the current chart for better visualization.
Users can choose which FVGs to display: only the current one, only MTF ones, or both.
Volume Channel - [With Volume Filter]The indicator calculates two volume-weighted moving averages (VWMA) using different lengths, and filters them based on a moving average of volume. The filtered VWMA values are then plotted on the chart as lines, representing the fast and slow moving averages. In addition, upper and lower bands are calculated based on the slow VWMA and plotted as lines on the chart.
The fast and slow VWMA lines can be used to identify trends in the market. When the fast VWMA is above the slow VWMA, it is an indication of an uptrend, and when the fast VWMA is below the slow VWMA, it is an indication of a downtrend. The position of the VWMA lines relative to the upper and lower bands can also be used to identify potential trade signals.
When the price is near the upper band, it indicates that the market is overbought, and when the price is near the lower band, it indicates that the market is oversold. Traders can use these signals to enter or exit trades.
The indicator also includes a volume filter, which means that the VWMA values are only calculated when the volume is above a certain moving average of volume. This helps to filter out noise in the market and provide more accurate signals.
Explanation for each parameter
vwmaLength1: This is the length of the fast volume-weighted moving average (VWMA) used in the calculation. The default value is 10, and it can be adjusted by the user.
vwmaLength2: This is the length of the slow volume-weighted moving average (VWMA) used in the calculation. The default value is 25, and it can be adjusted by the user.
bandLength: This is the length of the moving average used to calculate the upper and lower bands. The default value is 34, and it is not adjustable by the user.
volumeFilterLength: This is the length of the moving average of volume used as a filter for the VWMA calculation. The default value is 5, and it can be adjusted by the user.
src: This is the input source for the VWMA calculation. The default value is close, which means the indicator is using the closing price of each bar. However, the user can select a different input source by changing this parameter.
filteredVwma1: This is the filtered VWMA calculated based on the volume filter and the fast VWMA length. It is plotted as a line on the chart and can be used to identify short-term trends.
filteredVwma2: This is the filtered VWMA calculated based on the volume filter and the slow VWMA length. It is plotted as a line on the chart and can be used to identify long-term trends.
ma: This is the moving average of the filtered slow VWMA values, which is used to calculate the upper and lower bands. It is plotted as a line on the chart.
offs: This is the offset used to calculate the upper and lower bands. It is based on the standard deviation of the filtered slow VWMA values and is multiplied by 1.6185 * 3. It is plotted as a line on the chart.
up: This is the upper band calculated as the moving average plus the offset. It is plotted as a line on the chart and can be used to identify overbought conditions.
dn: This is the lower band calculated as the moving average minus the offset. It is plotted as a line on the chart and can be used to identify oversold conditions.
VWAP Supply and Demand ZonesThis is my 1st indicator enjoy.
Description of the VWAP Supply and Demand Zones indicator:
This indicator uses the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) to identify potential supply and demand zones in the market. The VWAP is a popular indicator that shows the average price of a security weighted by volume over a specified period of time. It can be used as a benchmark to measure the efficiency of trading and to identify trends and price levels.
The indicator plots the VWAP as a blue line on the chart, and also plots two other lines above and below it, which represent the upper and lower bounds of the supply and demand zones. The width of these zones can be adjusted by changing the “Zone Width” input parameter.
The indicator also plots shapes on the chart to mark when a supply or demand zone is formed. A supply zone is formed when the price crosses above the VWAP and then falls back below it, indicating that there is more selling pressure than buying pressure at that level. A red triangle is plotted above the bar where this happens, and a red zone is drawn between the previous close and previous VWAP values.
A demand zone is formed when the price crosses below the VWAP and then rises back above it, indicating that there is more buying pressure than selling pressure at that level. A green triangle is plotted below the bar where this happens, and a green zone is drawn between the previous close and previous VWAP values.
The supply and demand zones can be used as potential areas of support and resistance, where traders can look for reversal or continuation signals. For example, if the price enters a supply zone from below, it may indicate that sellers are willing to sell at higher prices, which could lead to a bearish reversal. Conversely, if the price enters a demand zone from above, it may indicate that buyers are willing to buy at lower prices, which could lead to a bullish reversal.
The indicator can be applied to any timeframe or market, but it may work better on higher timeframes where volume data is more reliable. It can also be combined with other indicators or tools to confirm or filter signals.

Robust Channel [tbiktag]Introducing the Robust Channel indicator.
This indicator is based on a remarkable property of robust statistics , namely, the resistance to the presence of data points that deviate significantly from the established trend (generally speaking, outliers ). Being outlier-resistant, the Robust Channel indicator “remembers” a pre-existing trend and thus exhibits a very peculiar "lag" in case of a sharp price change. This allows high-confidence identification of such price actions as a trend reversal, range break, pullback, etc.
In the case of trending and range-bound market conditions, the price remains within the channel most of the time, fluctuating around the central line.
Technical details
The central line is calculated using the repeated median slope algorithm. For each data point in a lookback window of a user-specified Length , this method calculates the median slope of the lines that connect that point to all other points inside the window. The overall median of these median slopes is then calculated and used as an estimate of the trend slope. The algorithm is very efficient as it uses an on-the-fly procedure to update the array containing the slopes (new data pushed - old data removed).
The outer line is then calculated as the central line plus the Length -period standard deviation of the price data multiplied by a user-defined Channel Width Factor . The inner line is defined analogously below the central line.
Usage
As a stand-alone indicator, the Robust Channel can be applied similarly to the Bollinger Bands and the Keltner Channel:
A close above the outer line can be interpreted as a bullish signal and a close below the inner line as a bearish signal.
Likewise, a return to the channel from below after a break may serve as a bullish signal, while a return from above may indicate bearish sentiment.
Robust Channel can be also used to confirm chart patterns such as double tops and double bottoms.

Dynamic Price ChannelsThis indicator plots dynamic price channels based on the security highest close and lowest open.
The default is to display 8 core channels (with the option to plot the sub channel lines, off by default).
It’s simple really—this just divides the price action into equal channels. I’ve found this pattern helpful across all markets.
It’s dynamic because if a new high close or a new low close is created the all channels will adjust.
The key levels are 75% (blue), 50% (aqua), 25% (blue).
In between those key levels is a level separator.
The high close and the low open are both red.
These can all be customized in the settings.
What you’ll typically see at these channel boundaries are price slow downs, reversals, support and resistance.
Turning on sub-channels will provide further channel plots. On these sub-channels you’ll also see the same type of price action activity as mentioned above.
I’ve developed a trading system where this indicator helps identify key pivot areas. Combined with a few other indicators and key EMAs this trade system provides high probability trades around these key channel areas.
