RSI Volume LadderA long-only pyramiding strategy that scales into corrections using RSI oversold conditions confirmed by above-average volume. Each subsequent entry requires a meaningful price drop from the previous fill, with an asymmetric exit structure: Take Profit anchored to the average entry, Stop Loss anchored to the lowest fill. Built for traders who want to systematically dollar-cost into pullbacks within an uptrend, with clearly defined risk per pyramid stack.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
ORIGINALITY — WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Five specific mechanics that, in this combination, distinguish this script from other averaging-down systems published on PulseWire:
- ASYMMETRIC EXIT ANCHORING
Take Profit is calculated from the average entry price of the pyramid — so winners run from the averaged-down cost basis. Stop Loss is calculated from the LOWEST entry price among all open positions — so the absolute worst-case loss is bounded by your deepest fill, not your average. This asymmetry is the key to making pyramiding viable: averaging works for you on the upside without inflating downside risk.
- PRICE-DROP GATE FOR EACH PYRAMID LEG
Every subsequent entry requires both a fresh RSI + volume signal AND a configurable minimum price drop from the previous fill (default 1.5%). This prevents stacking three positions within a tight range during a slow grind down — pyramiding only triggers on meaningful pullbacks, forcing real averaging instead of cosmetic averaging.
- ASYMMETRIC COOLDOWN ON EXIT
After a Stop Loss, the strategy waits N bars (default 3) before allowing new entries — blocks the "catch the falling knife" pattern where RSI stays oversold for many bars during a cascade. After a Take Profit, cooldown is configurable separately and defaults to 0, because a successful exit signals continued mean-reversion behavior worth participating in.
- ENTRY-TIMING SAFETY
Exit detection runs at the top of the bar evaluation, BEFORE the entry check. This means a Stop Loss hit on a bar cannot trigger a new entry on the same bar — even if RSI is still deeply oversold and volume is elevated. The cooldown counter is set before the entry logic ever sees the bar, eliminating a subtle but realistic execution problem in pyramiding systems.
- VISUAL EXIT CLASSIFICATION
When the position closes, the script automatically classifies the exit as TP or SL by measuring distance from actual fill price to each pre-set level, and renders a fuchsia or red cross at the exit price. No look-ahead, no estimation — the classification uses the closed trade's recorded exit price.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
CREDITS & FOUNDATIONS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
This script builds on established methodologies with original Pine v5 implementation of every layer:
- RSI — Wilder, 1978 (standard implementation via ta.rsi)
- Volume confirmation — classical technical analysis
- Pyramiding / scaling-in — standard portfolio management technique (Tharp, Elder)
- Dollar-cost averaging principles — long-standing investment methodology
ALL CODE in this script was written from scratch. No code has been copied from other public or private scripts. The five mechanics listed under ORIGINALITY above are original combinations and implementations.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
HOW THE STRATEGY WORKS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
ENTRY CONDITIONS (all must be true):
- RSI below the configurable oversold threshold (default 30)
- Volume above SMA × configurable multiplier (default 1.5× of SMA20)
- For pyramiding: price must be at least X% below the last fill (default 1.5%)
- Cooldown not active from the previous exit
- Open positions count below the pyramiding cap (default 3)
PYRAMID BUILDING:
Up to 3 long positions can be opened. Each new entry independently re-checks all conditions — the RSI + volume signal must reappear, AND the price drop gate must be satisfied. Position size per entry is fixed (default 5% of equity), so a full three-position stack uses approximately 15% of equity.
EXIT LOGIC:
Both legs run as an OCO (one-cancels-other) bracket:
Take Profit = average entry × (1 + tpPercent / 100), default +4%
Stop Loss = lowest entry × (1 − slPercent / 100), default −3%
All positions close together when either level is hit. The TP/SL levels update on every bar as the pyramid grows — average shifts on each new fill, lowest fill anchors deeper if a new low is hit.
COOLDOWN MECHANISM:
On exit, the strategy records the bar index and exit type. While bar_index − lastExitBar ≤ requiredCooldown , new entries are blocked. The required cooldown differs by exit type (default 3 bars after SL, 0 bars after TP), reflecting that an SL exit often happens during continuing weakness, while a TP exit signals healthy mean reversion.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
VISUALIZATION
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
ENTRY ARROWS — blue triangles below each fill, labeled Long_1 / Long_2 / Long_3 with the order price
AVERAGE ENTRY LINE — blue, updates as the pyramid grows (staircase pattern)
TAKE PROFIT LINE — fuchsia, updates with the average
STOP LOSS LINE — red, anchored to the lowest fill (steps down only if a deeper entry occurs)
EXIT CROSS — fuchsia at TP hit, red at SL hit, placed at the actual exit price
The line style is plot.style_linebr , which connects within an open position and breaks cleanly between positions — making each pyramid cycle visually self-contained on the chart.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
HOW TO USE IT
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
This is a complete entry + exit strategy, but it is NOT a turn-it-on-and-walk-away system. Use it as a framework to test and adapt to your specific instrument:
- Load on a liquid asset with mean-reverting behavior in an uptrend. The strategy was developed on crypto majors (BTC, ETH) and major equity indices.
Start with the default parameters and run the Strategy Tester on at least 6 months of history.
- Pay attention to:
• Net Profit and Max Drawdown ratio
• Average loss vs. average win
• Whether losing streaks cluster during specific market regimes
Tune to your instrument's volatility:
• Higher-volatility assets (alt-coins, small caps) → increase dropPercent (2-3%), increase slPercent (4-6%)
• Lower-volatility assets (BTC, indices) → decrease dropPercent (1-1.5%), tighter slPercent (2-3%)
• Higher timeframes (1h, 4h) → wider TP/SL to match bar range
- Consider adding an external trend filter for your live use. The strategy will pyramid into any oversold reading regardless of higher-timeframe context. Adding an EMA200 filter (only enter if price > EMA200) materially changes the risk profile on instruments prone to extended downtrends.
- Treat the strategy output as a structured framework for your dip-buying process, not as a guaranteed system. Combine with your own market analysis, position sizing, and broader risk management.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
INPUTS WORTH KNOWING
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
RSI Length (default 14) and Oversold threshold (default 30) — standard RSI configuration. Lower threshold = fewer, deeper-oversold entries.
Volume SMA length (default 20) and Multiplier (default 1.5×) — volume confirmation strength. Higher multiplier = only enter on standout volume spikes, fewer entries.
Min drop between pyramid entries (default 1.5%) — prevents tight clustering. Higher = waits for deeper pullbacks before adding.
Max pyramid positions (default 3) — caps the stack. Note: pyramiding=3 is also set in the strategy() header.
Take Profit % from average (default 4%) — anchored to running average entry price.
Stop Loss % from lowest fill (default 3%) — anchored to the deepest entry, shared across all open positions.
Cooldown after SL (default 3 bars) — blocks the falling-knife pattern after a stop-out.
Cooldown after TP (default 0 bars) — re-enter immediately after a successful exit.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
REALISTIC EXPECTATIONS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Pyramiding into corrections is a well-known approach with well-known limitations. The strategy works best when:
The underlying asset has a structural uptrend
Volatility produces regular pullbacks of meaningful depth
The market is not in a sustained bear regime
What this strategy provides:
A disciplined framework for scaling into pullbacks instead of single-shot entries
Asymmetric exit anchoring that lets winners run from the averaged cost basis
Built-in protection against catching the falling knife via cooldown
Transparent visualization of each pyramid leg, exit, and risk level
What it does NOT provide:
Protection from prolonged bear trends (averaging down into a structural decline is the dominant failure mode of this entire strategy family)
A guaranteed profitable system
A signal generator for assets that don't mean-revert
A replacement for your own market analysis, position sizing, or higher-timeframe context
Treat the output as ONE structured input in your trading process. The biggest risk to your account using a pyramiding strategy is mis-applying it to a downtrending asset — always confirm regime alignment before going live.

MTF Smoothable RSI Nexus [DarkWaveAlgo]🧾 Description:
A nexus is a connection, link, or neuronal junction where signals and information are transmitted between different elements.
The MTF Smoothable RSI Nexus indicator serves as a nexus between smoothable, MTF RSIs by facilitating the visualization and interaction of up to six multi-timeframe RSIs, each with its own customizable timeframe, period, coloring customization, and price source. By combining these various RSIs, it helps you create a comprehensive view of MTF momentum trends and dynamics.
It acts as a control center that brings together multiple MTF RSIs and allows you to visualize the interactions between them with exceptional ease-of-use and customizability, helping to provide you with valuable insights into potential trend reversals, momentum shifts, and trading opportunities.
💡 Originality and Usefulness:
While there are other multi-timeframe RSI indicators available, MTF Smoothable RSI Nexus' global smoothing settings offer a flexible take on the development of price momentum across various timeframes. Its semi-transparent overbought and oversold fill zones create a compounding opaqueness when RSIs from multiple timeframes coalesce - making visual assessment of momentum extremes incredibly easy. We also believe it stands above the rest with its sheer quantity and quality of settings, features, and usability.
✔️ Re-Published to Avoid Misleading Values
This script has been re-published to ensure that it does not use `request.security()` calls using lookahead_on to access future data when referencing RSIs from other timeframes. This decreases the likelihood that the indicator will provide deceiving values. This change has been made in accordance with the PineScript documentation: "Using barmerge.lookahead_on at timeframes higher than the chart's without offsetting the `expression` argument like in `close [ ]` will introduce future leak in scripts, as the function will then return the `close` price before it is actually known in the current context" and the Publishing Rule: "Do not use `request.security()` calls using lookahead to access future data". Historical and real-time values may differ when referencing timeframes other than the chart's.
💠 Features:
6 toggleable MTF Smoothable RSIs with customizable timeframes, periods, and price sources

RSI Primed [ChartPrime]
RSI Primed combines candlesticks, patterns, and the classic RSI indicator for advanced market trend indications
Introduction
Technical traders are always looking for innovative methods to pinpoint potential entry and exit points in the market. The RSI Prime indicator provides such traders with an enhanced view of market conditions by combining various charting styles and the Relative Strength Index (RSI). It offers users a unique perspective on the market trends and price momentum, enabling them to make better-informed decisions and stay ahead of the market curve.
The RSI Primed is a versatile indicator that combines different charting styles with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to help traders analyze market trends and price momentum. It offers multiple visualization modes that serve specific purposes and provide unique insights into market performance:
Regular Candlesticks
Candlesticks with Patterns
Heikin Ashi Candles
Line Style
Regular Candlestick Mode
The Regular Candlestick Mode in RSI Primed depicts traditional Japanese candlesticks that most traders are familiar with. This mode bypasses any smoothing or modified calculations, representing real-price movements. Regular candlesticks offer a clear and straightforward way to visualize market trends and price action.
Candlestick with Patterns Mode
The Candlestick with Patterns Mode focuses on identifying high-probability candlestick patterns while incorporating RSI values. By leveraging the information captured by the RSI, this mode allows traders to spot significant market reversals or continuation patterns that could signal potential trading opportunities. Some recognizable patterns include engulfing bullish, engulfing bearish, morning star bullish, and evening star bearish patterns.
Heikin Ashi Candles Mode
The Heikin Ashi Candles Mode presents an advanced candlestick charting technique known for its excellent trend-following capabilities. Heikin Ashi Candles filter out noise in the market and provide a clear representation of market trends. In this mode, candlesticks are plotted based on RSI values of the open, high, low, and close prices, helping traders understand and utilize market trends effectively.
Line Style Mode
The Line Style Mode offers a simpler and minimalistic representation of the RSI values by using a line instead of candlesticks to visualize market trends. This mode helps traders focus on the overall trend direction and eliminates potential distractions caused by the complexity of candlestick patterns.
Candle Color Overlay Mode
The Candle Color Overlay Mode is a unique feature in the RSI Primed indicator that allows traders to visualize the RSI values on the chart's candles as a heat gradient. This mode adds a color overlay to the candlesticks, representing the RSI values in relation to the candlesticks' price action.
By displaying the RSI as a color gradient, traders can quickly assess market momentum and identify overbought or oversold conditions without having to switch between different modes or charts. The gradient ranges from cool colors (blue and green) for lower RSI values, indicating oversold conditions, to warm colors (orange and red) for higher RSI values, signifying overbought situations.
To enable the Candle Color Overlay Mode, traders can toggle the "Color Candles" option in the indicator settings. Once enabled, the color gradient will be applied to the candlesticks on the chart, providing a visually striking and informative representation of the RSI values in relation to price action. This mode can be used in tandem with any of the other charting styles, allowing traders to gain even more insights into market trends and momentum.
RSI Primed Implementation
The RSI Primed indicator combines the benefits of various charting styles with the RSI to help traders gain a comprehensive view of market trends and price momentum. It incorporates the Heikin Ashi and RSI values as inputs to generate several visualization modes, enabling traders to select the one that best suits their needs.
Chebyshev Digital Audio Filter in RSI Primed Indicator
A unique feature of the RSI Primed Indicator is the incorporation of the Chebyshev Digital Audio Filter, a powerful tool that significantly influences the indicator's accuracy and responsiveness. This signal processing method brings several benefits to the context of the RSI indicator, improving its performance and capabilities.
1. Improved Signal Filtering
The Chebyshev filter excels in its ability to remove high-frequency noise and unwanted signals from the RSI data. While other filtering techniques might introduce unwanted side effects or distort the RSI data, the Chebyshev filter accurately retains the main signal components, enhancing the RSI Primed's overall accuracy and reliability.
2. Faster Response Time
The Chebyshev filter offers a faster response time than most other filtering techniques. In the context of the RSI Primed Indicator, this means that the filtering process is quicker and more efficient, allowing traders to act swiftly during rapidly changing market conditions.

RSI Divergences on price chart - Open Source CodeHello Traders,
I have some exciting news to share with you all! Recently, I came across an incredible RSI divergences indicator developed by Socrate_FR. This indicator, in my opinion has an exceptional accuracy in detecting RSI divergences. However, during my exploration of other indicators in the PulseWire library that display signals on the price chart, I found that many of them were often unreliable and missed out on important divergences.One such example is the Prices / RSI Divergences Detector by vtllr. Although vtllr did an amazing job with the indicator, I noticed that it didn't capture several relevant divergences accurately.
This observation inspired me to enhance the most accurate RSI divergences indicator available by showcasing the signals directly on the price chart. By doing so, I aimed to address the issue of unreliable and missed divergences in other price chart indicators. With this enhanced version, you can now effortlessly identify and track RSI regular divergences on the price chart itself:
-Regular bullish divergence occurs when the price forms lower lows while the RSI indicator forms higher lows. It suggests a potential bullish reversal (green line plot)
-Regular bearish divergence occurs when the price forms higher highs while the RSI indicator forms lower highs. It suggests a potential bearish reversal (red line plot)
Another key mofication:
This Indicator introduces a simpler approach compared to the original Socrate indicator. While Socrate differentiated divergences into eight types for both bullish and bearish scenarios, our enhanced version focuses on two distinct categories: small and big divergences. This decision was made to provide a clearer and more user-friendly experience. By condensing the divergence types into two groups, traders can easily identify and analyze the significance of the divergences without getting overwhelmed by excessive variations. The small divergences represent relatively minor divergences, while the big divergences indicate stronger and more significant signals.
-Small divergences represent relatively minor divergences (plotshape small circle)
-Big divergences indicate stronger signals (plotshape big circle)
I firmly believe that this enhanced RSI Divergences Indicator will be an invaluable tool for traders who rely on RSI analysis in their trading strategies. It combines the accuracy of Socrate_FR's original indicator with the enhanced visibility of signals on the price chart, ensuring you never miss any important divergences.
If you're interested in trying out this enhanced version of the indicator, please feel free to access the open-source code. If you want to visit and try the original version of the code visit Socrate_FR profile.

Advanced VWAP_Pullback Strategy_Trend-Template QualifierGeneral Description and Unique Features of this Script
Introducing the Advanced VWAP Momentum-Pullback Strategy (long-only) that offers several unique features:
1. Our script/strategy utilizes Mark Minervini's Trend-Template as a qualifier for identifying stocks and other financial securities in confirmed uptrends. Mark Minervini, a 2x US Investment Champion, developed the Trend-Template, which covers eight different and independent characteristics that can be adjusted and optimized in this trend-following strategy to ensure the best results. The strategy will only trigger buy-signals in case the optimized qualifiers are being met.
2. Our strategy is based on the supply/demand balance in the market, making it timeless and effective across all timeframes. Whether you are day trading using 1- or 5-min charts or swing-trading using daily charts, this strategy can be applied and works very well.
3. We have also integrated technical indicators such as the RSI and the MA / VWAP crossover into this strategy to identify low-risk pullback entries in the context of confirmed uptrends. By doing so, the risk profile of this strategy and drawdowns are being reduced to an absolute minimum.
Minervini’s Trend-Template and the ‘Stage-Analysis’ of the Markets
This strategy is a so-called 'long-only' strategy. This means that we only take long positions, short positions are not considered.
The best market environment for such strategies are periods of stable upward trends in the so-called stage 2 - uptrend.
In stable upward trends, we increase our market exposure and risk.
In sideways markets and downward trends or bear markets, we reduce our exposure very quickly or go 100% to cash and wait for the markets to recover and improve. This allows us to avoid major losses and drawdowns.
This simple rule gives us a significant advantage over most undisciplined traders and amateurs!
'The Trend is your Friend'. This is a very old but true quote.
What's behind it???
• 98% of stocks made their biggest gains in a Phase 2 upward trend.
• If a stock is in a stable uptrend, this is evidence that larger institutions are buying the stock sustainably.
• By focusing on stocks that are in a stable uptrend, the chances of profit are significantly increased.
• In a stable uptrend, investors know exactly what to expect from further price developments. This makes it possible to locate low-risk entry points.
The goal is not to buy at the lowest price – the goal is to buy at the right price!
Each stock goes through the same maturity cycle – it starts at stage 1 and ends at stage 4
Stage 1 – Neglect Phase – Consolidation
Stage 2 – Progressive Phase – Accumulation
Stage 3 – Topping Phase – Distribution
Stage 4 – Downtrend – Capitulation
This strategy focuses on identifying stocks in confirmed stage 2 uptrends. This in itself gives us an advantage over long-term investors and less professional traders.
By focusing on stocks in a stage 2 uptrend, we avoid losses in downtrends (stage 4) or less profitable consolidation phases (stages 1 and 3). We are fully invested and put our money to work for us, and we are fully invested when stocks are in their stage 2 uptrends.
But how can we use technical chart analysis to find stocks that are in a stable stage 2 uptrend?
Mark Minervini has developed the so-called 'trend template' for this purpose. This is an essential part of our JS-TechTrading pullback strategy. For our watchlists, only those individual values that meet the tough requirements of Minervini's trend template are eligible.
The Trend Template
• 200d MA increasing over a period of at least 1 month, better 4-5 months or longer
• 150d MA above 200d MA
• 50d MA above 150d MA and 200d MA
• Course above 50d MA, 150d MA and 200d MA
• Ideally, the 50d MA is increasing over at least 1 month
• Price at least 25% above the 52w low
• Price within 25% of 52w high
• High relative strength according to IBD.
NOTE: In this basic version of the script, the Trend-Template has to be used as a separate indicator on PulseWire (Public Trend-Template indicators are available in PulseWire – community scripts). It is recommended to only execute buy signals in case the stock or financial security is in a stage 2 uptrend, which means that the criteria of the trend-template are fulfilled.
This strategy can be applied to all timeframes from 5 min to daily.
The VWAP Momentum-Pullback Strategy
For the JS-TechTrading VWAP Momentum-Pullback Strategy, only stocks and other financial instruments that meet the selected criteria of Mark Minervini's trend template are recommended for algorithmic trading with this startegy.
A further prerequisite for generating a buy signals is that the individual value is in a short-term oversold state (RSI).
When the selling pressure is over and the continuation of the uptrend can be confirmed by the MA / VWAP crossover after reaching a price low, a buy signal is issued by this strategy.
Stop-loss limits and profit targets can be set variably. You also have the option to make use of the trailing stop exit strategy.
Relative Strength Index (RSI)
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a technical indicator developed by Welles Wilder in 1978. The RSI is used to perform a market value analysis and identify the strength of a trend as well as overbought and oversold conditions. The indicator is calculated on a scale from 0 to 100 and shows how much an asset has risen or fallen relative to its own price in recent periods.
The RSI is calculated as the ratio of average profits to average losses over a certain period of time. A high value of the RSI indicates an overbought situation, while a low value indicates an oversold situation. Typically, a value > 70 is considered an overbought threshold and a value < 30 is considered an oversold threshold. A value above 70 signals that a single value may be overvalued and a decrease in price is likely , while a value below 30 signals that a single value may be undervalued and an increase in price is likely.
For example, let's say you're watching a stock XYZ. After a prolonged falling movement, the RSI value of this stock has fallen to 26. This means that the stock is oversold and that it is time for a potential recovery. Therefore, a trader might decide to buy this stock in the hope that it will rise again soon.
The MA / VWAP Crossover Trading Strategy
This strategy combines two popular technical indicators: the Moving Average (MA) and the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP). The MA VWAP crossover strategy is used to identify potential trend reversals and entry/exit points in the market.
The VWAP is calculated by taking the average price of an asset for a given period, weighted by the volume traded at each price level. The MA, on the other hand, is calculated by taking the average price of an asset over a specified number of periods. When the MA crosses above the VWAP, it suggests that buying pressure is increasing, and it may be a good time to enter a long position. When the MA crosses below the VWAP, it suggests that selling pressure is increasing, and it may be a good time to exit a long position or enter a short position.
Traders typically use the MA VWAP crossover strategy in conjunction with other technical indicators and fundamental analysis to make more informed trading decisions. As with any trading strategy, it is important to carefully consider the risks and potential rewards before making any trades.
This strategy is applicable to all timeframes and the relevant parameters for the underlying indicators (RSI and MA/VWAP) can be adjusted and optimized as needed.
Backtesting
Backtesting gives outstanding results on all timeframes and drawdowns can be reduced to a minimum level. In this example, the hourly chart for MCFT has been used.
Settings for backtesting are:
- Period from Jan 2020 until March 2023
- Starting capital 100k USD
- Position size = 25% of equity
- 0.01% commission = USD 2.50.- per Trade
- Slippage = 2 ticks
Other comments
- This strategy has been designed to identify the most promising, highest probability entries and trades for each stock or other financial security.
- The combination of the Trend-Template and the RSI qualifiers results in a highly selective strategy which only considers the most promising swing-trading entries. As a result, you will normally only find a low number of trades for each stock or other financial security per year in case you apply this strategy for the daily charts. Shorter timeframes will result in a higher number of trades / year.
- Consequently, traders need to apply this strategy for a full watchlist rather than just one financial security.

NOTE: In this basic version of the script, the Trend-Template has to be used as a separate indicator on PulseWire (Public Trend-Template indicators are available on PulseWire – community scripts). It is recommended to only execute buy signals in case the stock or financial security is in a stage 2 uptrend, which means that the criteria of the trend-template are fulfilled.
2. Our strategy is based on the supply/demand balance in the market, making it timeless and effective across all timeframes. Whether you are day trading using 1- or 5-min charts or swing-trading using daily charts, this strategy can be applied and works very well.
3. We have also integrated technical indicators such as the RSI and the MA / VWAP crossover into this strategy to identify low-risk pullback entries in the context of confirmed uptrends. By doing so, the risk profile of this strategy and drawdowns are being reduced to an absolute minimum.
Minervini’s Trend-Template and the ‘Stage-Analysis’ of the Markets
This strategy is a so-called 'long-only' strategy. This means that we only take long positions, short positions are not considered.
The best market environment for such strategies are periods of stable upward trends in the so-called stage 2 - uptrend.
In stable upward trends, we increase our market exposure and risk.
In sideways markets and downward trends or bear markets, we reduce our exposure very quickly or go 100% to cash and wait for the markets to recover and improve. This allows us to avoid major losses and drawdowns.
This simple rule gives us a significant advantage over most undisciplined traders and amateurs!
'The Trend is your Friend'. This is a very old but true quote.
What's behind it???
• 98% of stocks made their biggest gains in a Phase 2 upward trend.
• If a stock is in a stable uptrend, this is evidence that larger institutions are buying the stock sustainably.
• By focusing on stocks that are in a stable uptrend, the chances of profit are significantly increased.
• In a stable uptrend, investors know exactly what to expect from further price developments. This makes it possible to locate low-risk entry points.
The goal is not to buy at the lowest price – the goal is to buy at the right price!
Each stock goes through the same maturity cycle – it starts at stage 1 and ends at stage 4
Stage 1 – Neglect Phase – Consolidation
Stage 2 – Progressive Phase – Accumulation
Stage 3 – Topping Phase – Distribution
Stage 4 – Downtrend – Capitulation
This strategy focuses on identifying stocks in confirmed stage 2 uptrends. This in itself gives us an advantage over long-term investors and less professional traders.
By focusing on stocks in a stage 2 uptrend, we avoid losses in downtrends (stage 4) or less profitable consolidation phases (stages 1 and 3). We are fully invested and put our money to work for us, and we are fully invested when stocks are in their stage 2 uptrends.
But how can we use technical chart analysis to find stocks that are in a stable stage 2 uptrend?
Mark Minervini has developed the so-called 'trend template' for this purpose. This is an essential part of our JS-TechTrading pullback strategy. For our watchlists, only those individual values that meet the tough requirements of Minervini's trend template are eligible.
The Trend Template
• 200d MA increasing over a period of at least 1 month, better 4-5 months or longer
• 150d MA above 200d MA
• 50d MA above 150d MA and 200d MA
• Course above 50d MA, 150d MA and 200d MA
• Ideally, the 50d MA is increasing over at least 1 month
• Price at least 25% above the 52w low
• Price within 25% of 52w high
• High relative strength according to IBD.
NOTE: In this basic version of the script, the Trend-Template has to be used as a separate indicator on PulseWire (Public Trend-Template indicators are available in PulseWire – community scripts). It is recommended to only execute buy signals in case the stock or financial security is in a stage 2 uptrend, which means that the criteria of the trend-template are fulfilled.
This strategy can be applied to all timeframes from 5 min to daily.
The VWAP Momentum-Pullback Strateg y
For the JS-TechTrading VWAP Momentum-Pullback Strategy, only stocks and other financial instruments that meet the selected criteria of Mark Minervini's trend template are recommended for algorithmic trading with this startegy.
A further prerequisite for generating a buy signals is that the individual value is in a short-term oversold state (RSI).
When the selling pressure is over and the continuation of the uptrend can be confirmed by the MA / VWAP crossover after reaching a price low, a buy signal is issued by this strategy.
Stop-loss limits and profit targets can be set variably.
Relative Strength Index (RSI)
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a technical indicator developed by Welles Wilder in 1978. The RSI is used to perform a market value analysis and identify the strength of a trend as well as overbought and oversold conditions. The indicator is calculated on a scale from 0 to 100 and shows how much an asset has risen or fallen relative to its own price in recent periods.
The RSI is calculated as the ratio of average profits to average losses over a certain period of time. A high value of the RSI indicates an overbought situation, while a low value indicates an oversold situation. Typically, a value > 70 is considered an overbought threshold and a value < 30 is considered an oversold threshold. A value above 70 signals that a single value may be overvalued and a decrease in price is likely , while a value below 30 signals that a single value may be undervalued and an increase in price is likely.
For example, let's say you're watching a stock XYZ. After a prolonged falling movement, the RSI value of this stock has fallen to 26. This means that the stock is oversold and that it is time for a potential recovery. Therefore, a trader might decide to buy this stock in the hope that it will rise again soon.
The MA / VWAP Crossover Trading Strategy
This strategy combines two popular technical indicators: the Moving Average (MA) and the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP). The MA VWAP crossover strategy is used to identify potential trend reversals and entry/exit points in the market.
The VWAP is calculated by taking the average price of an asset for a given period, weighted by the volume traded at each price level. The MA, on the other hand, is calculated by taking the average price of an asset over a specified number of periods. When the MA crosses above the VWAP, it suggests that buying pressure is increasing, and it may be a good time to enter a long position. When the MA crosses below the VWAP, it suggests that selling pressure is increasing, and it may be a good time to exit a long position or enter a short position.
Traders typically use the MA VWAP crossover strategy in conjunction with other technical indicators and fundamental analysis to make more informed trading decisions. As with any trading strategy, it is important to carefully consider the risks and potential rewards before making any trades.
This strategy is applicable to all timeframes and the relevant parameters for the underlying indicators (RSI and MA/VWAP) can be adjusted and optimized as needed.
Backtesting
Backtesting gives outstanding results on all timeframes and drawdowns can be reduced to a minimum level. In this example, the hourly chart for MCFT has been used.
Settings for backtesting are:
- Period from April 2020 until April 2021 (1 yr)
- Starting capital 100k USD
- Position size = 25% of equity
- 0.01% commission = USD 2.50.- per Trade
- Slippage = 2 ticks
Other comments
• This strategy has been designed to identify the most promising, highest probability entries and trades for each stock or other financial security.
• The RSI qualifier is highly selective and filters out the most promising swing-trading entries. As a result, you will normally only find a low number of trades for each stock or other financial security per year in case you apply this strategy for the daily charts. Shorter timeframes will result in a higher number of trades / year.
• As a result, traders need to apply this strategy for a full watchlist rather than just one financial security.

Rich Robin Index, The Crypto Fear & Greed Index with RSI Trend The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a technical indicator based on price movements that is used to determine whether a particular asset is overbought or oversold. It measures the ratio of rising to falling prices over a certain period of time.
The Fear & Greed Index, on the other hand, is a composite index that tracks the sentiment of the crypto market. It is based on seven indicators, each of which measures a different aspect of market behavior. These indicators are: Safe Haven Demand, Stock Price Breadth, Market Momentum, Stock Price Strength, Put and Call Options, Junk Bond Demand, and Market Volatility.
The combination of the RSI and the Fear & Greed Index can provide valuable insights for crypto traders. The RSI can help identify overbought and oversold conditions, while the Fear & Greed Index can give an overall sense of the sentiment in the market. Together, they can provide a more complete picture of the market conditions. For example, if the RSI is indicating that an asset is overbought, but the Fear & Greed Index is showing that the market is still in a state of fear, it may be a good time to sell. On the other hand, if the RSI is indicating that an asset is oversold, but the Fear & Greed Index is showing that the market is in a state of greed, it may be a good time to buy.
Overall, the combination of the RSI and the Fear & Greed Index can provide useful information for traders to make more informed decisions, by giving a sense of the market conditions, and providing a way to identify overbought and oversold conditions. Indicator

Double RSI + BBRSI stands for Relative Strength Index.
Bollinger Bands stands for a channel open by standard deviation values plotting upper, lower lines.
Double RSI with Bollinger bands adapted Bollinger bands to RSI not using overlay mode. It tries to filter fake signals while giving more good signals according to volatility even below overbought areas or above oversold areas. This way you can use greater values for RSI, like 25 and 100, increasing smoothness with less market noise.
We added an extra gap spacer to smooth Bollinger bands while widening the channel with a lower multiplier.
I found better results when Fast RSI crosses back into Bollinger bands channel.
You can play with the following settings:
• Source
Close is the most used
• Fast RSI length
Default to 25
• Slow RSI length
Default to 100
• RSI Smoothing
To filter out some graphic noise
• RSI Overbought, Oversold
Regular overbought, oversold lines handled by a single value. For 70/30, set it to 20 although with longer RSI something around 15 is enough.
• Bollinger Spacer
Ads thickness to the channel with lower multiplier
• Bollinger Length
Regular Bollinger length applied to slow RSI
• Bollinger Multiplier
Regular Bollinger multiplier applied to slow RSI

For study purposes only, trading without a good risk management can be regrettable, do your own research, always add confirmations, use it as is, at your own risk. Indicator

The Forbidden RSI [CHE]My main goal of programming and publishing an indicator is that everyone should have the opportunity to use indicators that do not show false signals or where there is maximum practical use, so I publish this indicator:
This script is an advanced variant of the Onset Trend Detector, a technical indicator for trend analysis developed by John F. Ehlers.
It is based on a non-linear quotient transformation and expands upon Mr. Ehlers' previous studies, the Super Smoother Filter and the Roofing Filter,
to address the lag issue common to moving average type indicators.
The algorithm in this script registers the most recent peak value and normalizes it. The normalized value then decays slowly until the next
peak swing. The ratio of the previously filtered value to the corresponding peak value is then transformed using a quotient transformation to
provide the resulting oscillator.
This script implements an indicator called "The forbidden RSI" (TFRSI). This indicator was developed by chervolino as an improvement on the
standard Relative Strength Index (RSI), which is a technical indicator used to measure the strength of a trend and identify potential buy and sell signals.
The TFRSI is calculated based on the close price and is typically plotted on a scale from -20 to 120, with values above 100 indicating that
the asset is overbought (likely to decline in value) and values below 1 indicating that it is oversold (likely to increase in value). The script
allows the user to customize the length of the RSI and the length of the trigger used to smooth the signal.
In order to calculate the TFRSI, the script first initializes some constants and then performs a series of calculations to determine the value of
"HP", "ag", and "Sp". The RSI value is then calculated based on the values of "X", which is based on "ag" and "Sp", and "q1", which is based on "X"
and the trigger length. The RSI value is plotted in a chart along with upper and lower bounds and a filled region representing the background.
Please check it out, it works perfectly to find good analysis and entries for both, longs and shorts.
Best regards
Chervolino
Note: I hope that the moderators like my script and the explanation and don't delete it this time Indicator
