@cos251 Great Script!

Does anyone know if it would be possible to set custom individual stock alerts when the arrow is pointing up? For instance if I wanted an alert on Apple when the arrow is pointing up on the hourly tf.

Hi @TJ Baez - I seem to not have the study "Horizontal Priceline Study" Can you post the code so I can look at it?

@J007RMC Nice. The arrows can also be plotted on the FS17x5 line in the lower indicator as well. I like this and helps me keep an eye on things while on the go.

Should be able to. You can create a scan for the study and point it to a watch list with only AAPL in it and set it to alert you when the condition changes. The study scan should look like this:
The scan should be set to 1hr Timeframe

Code:
shared_Fisher_3xStochastics_02V04()."FS17x5u" is true

Sorry to be a pain, but for some reason when I try to create a scan for the study I am not getting any results. Any idea what I could be doing wrong?

You want to find the following conditions correct?
You want to do the following:
  1. Create a watchlist that only includes AAPL symbol and save it
  2. Create a scan with the conditions listed above and set it to only scan your watchlist you created in step 1
    1. Save the scan
    2. You can create a scan for when the FS17x5u (UP ARROW) is true or the FS17x5d (Down ARROW) is true
  3. Create an alert for when the condition is true against your watchlist
    1. Save the alert
Some screenshots below

Create Watchlist and add only AAPL Ticker and save it

Create Scan against your watchlist with the study criteria you requested:
Make sure to specify how many bars back you want to check for. I used 3 just to make sure the scan worked, you may want to change it to 1.
Code:
shared_Fisher_3xStochastics_02V04()."FS17x5u" is true

Create Alert when the scan is true; customize your alert for text message, email, sound etc.....

Hope this helps.
 
The labels are coming from the Horizontal Priceline Indicator (i.e, NS 14, or S 9, etc).
I looked at the indicator that @J007RMC posted for Horizontal Priceline Indicator by Thinkscripter and the following code is generating the /NS and /S bubbles. It is counting how many consecutive bars have been in a squeeze (/S) or not in a squeeze (/NS), at least that is what it looks like.

Code:
#Count of Periods in consecutive squeeze
rec countsq = if Squeeze then countsq[1] + 1 else 0;
rec count1sq = if !Squeeze then count1sq[1] + 1 else 0;

#Expansion Bubbles
input n = 5;
def n1  = n + 1;
def c = close;

input showsqueezebubble = no;
AddChartBubble(showsqueezebubble and !IsNaN(c[n1]) and IsNaN(c[n]), c[n1] ,( if Squeeze[n1] then "S \n"+Round(countsq[n1], 2) else "NS \n" + count1sq[n1]) , color.orange);

Let me know if that matches what you are seeing.
 
I really appreciate you taking the time to help me out on this. Everything seems to working great.

Nice job with the update FISH/CCI Combo. Have you tried to duplicate the Voodoo Lines? That would be interesting to have.
If you go to to the fwtrader website. You can read all about it. It needs to be manually updated. Actually simpler trading had a webinar on it.
 
Hi @ph19golf - I have not seen the Voodoo Lines Indicator. I'll take a look and see if there anything there for us.
Kudos again for all the great work!

Ditto on Voodoo Lines. My understanding they're simply derivatives of Fibs, but would definitely simplify the process and suspect it'd make an excellent compliment to your RAF that you've developed here!
 
This is very interesting. Thank you to all that help put it together. As usual, I need help understanding what all these arrows mean. Can someone explain it as if you are explaining to a 5 year old? What are the trading rules?
