Breakoutbar — Indicators and Strategies

Heads Up An indicator that gives you the "heads up" that that bullish/ bearish strength is increasing. I wanted an indicator that could give me the "heads up" that bullish/ bearish strength is increasing. This would help me get into a breakout early or avoid entering a breakout that had a high probability of failure. Here are my definitions for this indicator: My bull bar definition: - A green candle that closes above 75% of it's candle range. - The candle's body does not overlap the previous candle's body. Tails/ wicks CAN overlap. My bear bar definition: - A red candle that closes below 75% of it's candle range. - the candle's body does not overlap the previous candle's body. Tails/ ticks CAN overlap. Bullish strength increasing (arrow up): - Bull bars are increasing in size (the candle's range) compared to previous 5 bars. - 2 consecutive bull bars. Bearish strength increasing (arrow down): - Bear bars are increasing in size (the candle's range) compared to previous 5 bars. - 2 consecutive bear bars. You will not see this indicator trigger very often but when it does - it's because there is a change in bullish bearish strength. Things to be aware of: Use the indicator in line with the context of the previous trend. You will get triggers that fail. These are usually because they appear counter trend. When in doubt zoom out. It will not call every successful breakout. If you understand the definitions you'll understand why it appears. This is my first indicator and used for my personal use. Feedback and other ideas are welcome.

Megabar Breakout (Range & Volume & RSI)Hey there, This strategy is based on the idea that certain events lead to what are called Megabars. Megabars are bars that have a very large range and volume. I wanted to verify whether these bars indicate the start of a trend and whether one should follow the trend. Summary of the Code: The code is based on three indicators: the range of the bar, the volume of the bar, and the RSI. When certain values of these indicators are met, a Megabar is identified. The direction of the Megabar indicates the direction in which we should trade. Why do I combine these indicators? I want to identify special bars that have the potential to mark the beginning of a breakout. Therefore, a bar needs to exhibit high volume, have a large range (huge price movement), and we also use the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to assess potential momentum. Only if all three criteria are met within one candle, do we use this as an identifier for a megabar. Explanation of Drawings on the Chart: As you can see, there is a green background on my chart. The green background symbolizes the time when I'm entering a trade. Only if a Megabar happens during that time, I'm ready to enter a trade. The time is between 6 AM and 4 PM CET. It's just because I prefer that time. Also, the strategy draws an error every time a Megabar happens based on VOL and Range only (not on the RSI). That makes it pretty easy to go through your chart and check the biggest bars manually. You can activate or deactivate these settings via the input data of the strategy. When Do We Enter a Trade? We wait for a Megabar to happen during our trading session. If the Megabar is bullish, we open a LONG trade at the opening price of the next candle. If the Megabar is bearish, we open a SHORT trade at the opening price of the next candle. Where Do We Put Our Take Profit & Stop Loss? The default setting is TP = 40 Pips and SL = 30 Pips. In that case, we are always trading with a risk-reward ratio of 1.33 by default. You can easily change these settings via the input data of the strategy. Strategy Results The criteria for Megabars were chosen by me in a way that makes Megabars something special. They are not intended to occur too frequently, as the fundamental idea of this strategy would otherwise not hold. This results in only 37 closed trades within the last 12 months. If you change the criterias for a megabar to a milder one, you will create more Megabars and therefore more trades. It's up to you. I have adapted this strategy to the 30-minute chart of the EURUSD. In the evaluation, we consider a period of 12 months, which I believe is sufficient. My default settings for the indicators look like this: Avg Length Vol 20 Avg Multiplier Vol 3 Avg Length Range 20 Avg Multiplier Range 4 Value SMA RSI for Long Trades 50 Value SMA RSI for Short Trades 70 IMPORTANT: The current performance overview does not display the results of these settings. Please change the settings to my default ones so that you can see how I use this strategy. I do not recommend trading this strategy without further testing. The script is meant to reflect a basic idea and be used as a tool to identify Megabars. I have made this strategy completely public so that it can be further developed. One can take this framework and test it on different timeframes and different markets.

Main Market Opener Breakout [RH]Based on my observations while analyzing the crypto and forex charts, particularly BTCUSDT and EURUSD, I have noticed that the prices exhibit significant movements during most stock market sessions, particularly during New York main market session. With the aim of capturing these moves, I embarked on extensive research. Through this research, I discovered that by considering the very first "15m" or "30m" candle of the main market trading session and marking that first candle's high and low points, we can create potential trigger points. A break above the high point indicates a bullish signal, while a break below the low point suggests a bearish signal. To further refine our analysis and filter out some noise, we can incorporate the Average True Range (ATR) value of that candle. Candle time is very important here. We will mark the candle when the actual trading begins in New York stock exchange. The trading hours for the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) typically begin at 9:30 AM and end at 4:00 PM Eastern Time (ET), Monday through Friday. This is known as the "NYSE Regular Trading Session." However, it's important to note that there are also pre-market and after-hours trading sessions that occur outside of these core hours. We will not consider these pre and after-hours. Example: First break-above and break-below is marked automatically and alerts are also available for first breaks. Example: I have also added the option to add the, London Stock Exchange Main Market and Tokyo Stock Exchange Regular Trading Session. You can add those sessions also and test with different symbols. Stocks symbols from different stock exchanges just mark the very first candle of the day(main market trading session). Alerts are available.

Volume Breakout (ValueRay)Easy visuals on, if volume is way over average. Good for Mean Reverting. Higher Volume tends to higher breakout chances. Please whisper me for for ideas how to make this better. Its a very simple script, but got some alpha. If you know how to improve, let me know and i will code it into.
