One feature, if we can add, is volume.

As we know, without volume, price action doesn't do much.

Can we somehow incorporate buy/sell volume, possibly as a label or if anyone has any other suggestions, that works too.

That may also weed out "possible" false signals, or small moves price wise.

i completely agree with you! @Chuck @barbaros please consider this request
 
I was curious as to what some of you guys set your scan setting to\on.. IE volume, price , price change, unusual volume..etc Not just scan study scripts. ( We all have those already.. Thanks to the hard work these guys have done..)And maybe a short note or statement on what your scan settings are trying to search for. I have been playing around with my settings to see what works best for my trading style. But other ideas might be nice to try out also. Lastly , I wanted to say thanks to you guys for all your hard work and the focus and amazing teamwork you have shown. Its really appreciated. You guys help make this site great..
 
I played all 3 strategies lining up and combining it with a 5 min ORB for a scalp on SPWR to the downside worked out perfectly!!

I've been testing alignment of all 3 strategies too. What I've found is that on lower timeframes, it's more powerful when all 3 strategies print a signal at or very near the same time. When that happens, the signal tends to be more accurate and the move in price bigger than playing off a signal from one or two strategies. I've only tested this "triple strategy" on a handful of instruments (all futures). Not sure how powerful simultaneous firing of triple signals would be for stocks or swing trading.

I just set it to scan in weeklys....In order for an instrument to qualify for weekly options, it has to meet and exceed any criteria I am qualified to certify. If it has weekly options I am game on. I like to simplify when I can.

Thanks for the info.. and what about your scan setup itself? volume min max etc?

I agree with you. It would be great if we can update the code and give up arrow based on three strategies/

BTW Chuck, Thanks for getting this started.. and also congrats to you and your partners that made this indicator happen..

I trade a handful of instruments so I don't need to scan. I decided last night what to trade this morning if the opportunity presented.

If that trade hadn't set up, I could have run a scan on the MACD_BB crossing above the upper line for longs or below the lower line for shorts, as described here.

To make sure I'm trading with the long term trend, I plot a 50 and 200 EMA. I also plot RSM labels for timeframes from 2 min all the way up to monthly. If they're lining up the same color in the direction I want to trade, that's my MTF confirmation to trust triple Balanced BB Breakout signals on a short timeframe.

Probably not the answer you wanted, but that's how I do it.
 
What time frame are you scanning against, if you dont mind me asking.

When you say for all vertical lines, are you referring to all vertical lines in the fib strat or all vertical lines with all strats firing in unison?
 
i completely agree with you! @Chuck @barbaros please consider this request
This forum is pretty lively. I like it.

I completely agree with you. We had volume based indicators added but then removed since they don't work with indices and when you add a volume reference in an indicator for an instrument without volume, it makes the whole indicator stop working.

I think for the future, we'll have a volume add-on options that you can add to the end of the study. @Chuck has been doing some of that already with some of the add-ons. ADX is one of them.
 
One feature, if we can add, is volume.

As we know, without volume, price action doesn't do much.

Can we somehow incorporate buy/sell volume, possibly as a label or if anyone has any other suggestions, that works too.

That may also weed out "possible" false signals, or small moves price wise.
@Chuck and @barbaros...For Volume we can use Waddah Explosion Indicator.. It actually supports your indicator...
 
I just set it to scan in weeklys....In order for an instrument to qualify for weekly options, it has to meet and exceed any criteria I am qualified to certify. If it has weekly options I am game on. I like to simplify when I can.
Mind sharing your parameters for your scan?

Thanks

I am presently looking for alternatives .... If I cant find a suitable alternative I will pull together an add-on like Barbaros mentioned so it can be optional.

We got some updates in progress. As soon as thats done I will post a scan link, with my settings

If they're lining up the same color in the direction I want to trade, that's my MTF confirmation to trust triple Balanced BB Breakout signals on a short timeframe.

Probably not the answer you wanted, but that's how I do it.
Mind sharing a screenshot of your chart labels? Thanks
 
Fixed the Scan guys :) The above one is for the arrow :)
@AspaTrader, I am a bit confused. In Post 444, you said you fixed the scan and that it is for the arrow. Then in Post 449, you said this is the scan for the vertical lines for the Fibonacci Supertrend. And then in Post 451, you say its the final scan. Can you please clarify what is the difference in all these scans? I assume when the word 'scan' is used, that its being applied to a list of stocks meeting a certain criteria.

Also is it possible to scan for the first red dot or green dot? That seems to be the main success of this method...when the dots appear, thats when the stock moves. The 3 strategies mentioned (i.e. Balance of Power, RSI_IFT and FibonacciSupertrend) seem to me to be more confirming the dots.

Can you or @Chuck let me know if I am misunderstanding this whole concept? Many thanks in advance.
