SuperTrend TradingView Look-A-Like For ThinkOrSwim

adefrenza said:
I use a plain chart with the 10 and 20 EMA’s to enter trades. That’s all I use now succeasfuly, but what I am trying to accomplish is to incorporate the supertrend’s signals as confirmation of direction, which I think it does a pretty good job of doing. So the idea is to have supertrend print signals only when they align with my 10 and 20 EMA’s. I will then decide if I want to take the trade as I presently do. I don’t need to do testing because I do mot blindly enter into trades and I do not follow “good back testing” results, as none of that works. So maybe you misunderstood me as someone looking for the holy grail. Not so. My system works, I just want visualizations to make faster decisions. So can we add the script and label and can I show you how I do it?

Hey @adefenza , did it work for you the code , cause when i add my 9 and 21 , still is giving me signals when is below 9 and 21 , i was hoping the code is to give signals when is above 9 em

Can someone please make a scan for this. Just for the buy and sell signal. Thank you.

Hi @barbaros
I am one of you and @Chuck fans and thank you for the great effort.
Could you please give us an instruction to set up the scanner?
I tried to set it by choosing "is true" within 1 or 2 bars but it does not return any index.

Thanks for your time

Hello. Thank you for your kind words.

This script doesn’t support being saved into a study to be used in a scanner. You can paste it in filter source to use it. However, it is easy to support the study filtering. Would you like to use it that way?

Hi @barbaros , Thanks for your response.
I am not that much familiar with the filter source module. If it is possible instruct me to use it in study filtering.
Thank you very much

Here is how to use this. Save the script below to a study, and then you can select either the LongAlert or ShortAlert from the filter settings as plot option and select "is true" for the value.

Is it possible to create an MTF version for this indicator? I would like to see in a 2 min chart, the 5 min SuperTrend.

You can adjust the look from the options. Labels are turned off by default.

It also has alerts for trend change.

You need to close the order before a sell signal is fired. For that, you need another instrument to determine a profit target or a stop loss is reached. One example is, you can use SuperTrend and measure a stop loss to your entry, and calculate a 1 to 1 RR.

def ST = if ((ST[1] == UP_Band[1]) and (close < UP_Band)) then UP_Band
else if ((ST[1] == UP_Band[1]) and (close > Up_Band)) then LW_Band
else if ((ST[1] == LW_Band[1]) and (close > LW_Band)) then LW_Band
else if ((ST[1] == LW_Band) and (close < LW_Band)) then UP_Band
else LW_Band;

Shouldndt it be LW_band[1] instead of LW_Band for the last else if condition?

Probably correct.
 
Hello @barbaros .. I have a question. Is it possible to add the value to the label that reads ST: Bullish when green so it can read ST: Bullish 2200. The reason why I ask is because I would like to add two other different times and would like to see the value of the supertrend line without switching timeframes in the chart. Thank you.

Can you explain the label a bit further? What is 2200? Is it price, time, custom text?
 
Barbaros! Very slick redesign! Well done! I use Mobius’ Supertrend as the centerpiece of my intraday trades. I like the look of your script better. Are the action signals generated Using the same criteria as Mobius’?

Thank you for sharing!
