Volatility Trading Range

VTR is a momentum indicator that shows if a stock is overbought or oversold based on its Weekly and Monthly average volatility trading range.

Thanks a lot for the Scan. It works perfectly. I have scanned for the Uptrend signal and went through all the scan results. I found that you programmed in such a way that the signal is mostly triggered when a grey bar is followed with a green bar. In this way, the long signal comes quite late and also provides a few false signals. I would like to have the option to get the long signal when the first grey or green bar appears after a series of red bars.
Are you using a higher aggregation period (Time Frame)?
As for the scan, I would recommend scanning for false conditions for UpTrend & DownTrend within X number of bars. Trying to program a scan for as you mentioned is possible. Let me know if you have any luck with the scans and I can try and build another plot into the scans version.
 
This chain started has been nothing short of miracle. However, with expert coders and chartist we need a summary now. Can someone sum up which code to use as final agreed one & which all indicator and it setting we must employ for best results. This summary will be very helpful for all the advanced investors (traders) and/or newbees.
I plan on adding a full write up in the Strategies section a bit later. We've been able to aggregate most of the various requests so far but there are still a few outstanding requests to incorporate. For the moment, I would recommend reading the following article for use of this strategy.

Hi Sree,

Well, I’m asking for the code of Sree_Markus_Cleanedup_Version.

Thanks
Thats it friend, Post #126. I just named it such so i'm not confused :) Sorry for the late reply. You can also use the bullet 1 code from Post #186 here above. Its the same code.

Hello Sree,

Please check Post#126.. its just a screenshot, and there is no thinkscript or thinkscript URL for Sree_Markus_Cleanedup_Version. Thanks!

Rogtrader, Oops, my bad for not checking properly, thought I had put the code. apologies :oops: Here we go: This is Version 1.2 code that I saved as a cleaned up version. The actual code is in Post #87. There are more updates after that. That said, I'm still testing Version 1.2. Not copying and pasting here to reduce confusion and redundancies. Hope it won't be a miss this time.
 
@cos251 Here is how I did my setup. Few tweaks here.

1) StochK set to 14, as intended in original strategy not 5, I understand the original requester tied with 5 and made the request. But it is making a difference in higher timeframe.
2) Set the choppy zone, to White color, since most of us use dark background with TOS, I understand original request is again black.
3) Removed "AssignPriceColor" on the bottom study all together, as this is repainting the TOP Study.
4) Added the Bottom Indicator 3 times, and adjust each instance to Stoch, RSI and MACD.
5) Plotting both 70,20 and 80,30 levels for RSI, for the extreme cases, On bottom RSI plot.
6) Setup the chart type to Bar, looking cool on 1Y-1D and lower frames.

Awesome work on this.

Awesome, what other timeframes are you targetting?

Can you please share your grid?
 
@cos251 Changed the MACD histogram colors, purely from a usability point of view. Green on Green in the lower studies a bit hard to see.

Diff.DefineColor("Positive and Up", Color.CYAN);
Diff.DefineColor("Positive and Down", Color.BLUE);
Diff.DefineColor("Negative and Down", Color.RED);
Diff.DefineColor("Negative and Up", Color.YELLOW);
 
@cos251 This is some great work and I have used it with great success this week; thanks for sharing. Having said that, can you add 2D, 3D, 4D, WK to the signal? I have come to learn that great moves are hidden within these periods.

Are you referring to the MTF Labels?
