specific breakout FiFTOStrategy Description: 10:14 Breakout Only
Overview This is a time-based intraday trading strategy designed to capture momentum bursts that occur specifically after the 10:14 AM candle closes. It operates on the logic that if price breaks the high of this specific candle within a short window, a trend continuation is likely.
Core Logic & Rules
The Setup Candle (10:14 AM)
The strategy waits specifically for the minute candle at 10:14 to complete.
Once this candle closes, the strategy records its High price.
Defining the Entry Level
It calculates a trigger price by taking the 10:14 High and adding a user-defined Buffer (e.g., +1 point).
Formula: Entry Level = 10:14 High + Buffer
The "Active Window" (Expiry)
The trade setup does not remain open all day. It has a strict time limit.
By default, the setup is valid from 10:15 to 10:20.
If the price does not break the Entry Level by the expiry time (default 10:20), the setup is cancelled and no trade is taken for the day.
Entry Trigger
If a candle closes above the Entry Level while the window is open, a Long (Buy) position is opened immediately.
Exits (Risk Management)
Stop Loss: A fixed number of points below the entry price.
Target: A fixed number of points above the entry price.
Visual & Automation Features
Visual Boxes: Upon entry, the strategy draws a "Long Position" style visual on the chart. A green box highlights the profit zone, and a red box highlights the loss zone. These boxes extend automatically until the trade closes.
JSON Alerts: The strategy is pre-configured to send data-rich alerts for automation (e.g., Telegram bots).
Entry Alert: Includes Symbol, Entry Price, SL, and TP.
Exit Alerts: Specific messages for "Target Hit" or "SL Hit".
Summary of User Inputs
Entry Buffer: Extra points added to the high to filter false breaks.
Fixed Stop Loss: Risk per trade in points.
Fixed Target: Reward per trade in points.
Expiry Minute: The minute (10:xx) at which the setup becomes invalid if not triggered.

FVG Maxing - Fair Value Gaps, Equilibrium, and Candle Patterns
What this script does
This open-source indicator highlights 3-candle fair value gaps (FVGs) on the active chart timeframe, draws their midpoint ("equilibrium") line, tracks when each gap is mitigated, and optionally marks simple candle patterns (engulfing and doji) for confluence. It is intended as an educational tool to study how price interacts with imbalances.
3-candle bullish and bearish FVG zones drawn as forward-extending boxes.
Equilibrium line at 50% of each gap.
Different styling for mitigated vs unmitigated gaps.
Compact statistics panel showing how many gaps are currently active and filled.
Optional overlays for bullish/bearish engulfing patterns and doji candles.
1. FVG logic (3-candle gaps)
The script focuses on a strict 3-candle definition of a fair value gap:
Three consecutive candles with the same body direction.
The wick of candle 3 is separated from the wick of candle 1 (no overlap).
A bullish gap is created when price moves up fast enough to leave a gap between candle 1 and 3. A bearish gap is the mirror case to the downside.
In Pine, the core detection looks like this:
// Three candles with the same body direction
bull_seq = close > open and close > open and close > open
bear_seq = close < open and close < open and close < open
// Wick gap between candle 1 and candle 3
bull_gap = bull_seq and low > high
bear_gap = bear_seq and high < low
// Final FVG flags
is_bull_fvg = bull_gap
is_bear_fvg = bear_gap
For each detected FVG:
Bullish FVG range: from high up to low (gap below current price).
Bearish FVG range: from low down to high (gap above current price).
Each zone is stored in a custom FVGData structure so it can be updated when price later trades back inside it.
2. Equilibrium line (0.5 of the gap)
Every FVG box gets an optional equilibrium line plotted at the midpoint between its top and bottom:
eq_level = (top + bottom) / 2.0
right_index = extend_boxes ? bar_index + extend_length_bars : bar_index
bx = box.new(bar_index - 2, top, right_index, bottom)
eq_ln = line.new(bar_index - 2, eq_level, right_index, eq_level)
line.set_style(eq_ln, line.style_dashed)
line.set_color(eq_ln, eq_color)
You can use this line as a neutral “fair value” reference inside the zone, or as a simple way to think in terms of premium/discount within each gap.
3. Mitigation rules and styling
Each FVG stays active until price trades back into the gap:
Bullish FVG is considered mitigated when the low touches or moves below the top of the gap.
Bearish FVG is considered mitigated when the high touches or moves above the bottom of the gap.
When that happens, the script:
Marks the internal FVGData entry as mitigated.
Softens the box fill and border colors.
Optionally updates the label text from "BULL EQ / BEAR EQ" to "BULL FILLED / BEAR FILLED".
Can hide mitigated zones almost completely if you only want to see unfilled imbalances.
This allows you to distinguish between current areas of interest and zones that have already been traded through.
4. Candle pattern overlays (engulfing and doji)
For additional confluence, the script can mark simple candle patterns on top of the FVG view:
Bullish engulfing — current candle body fully wraps the previous bearish body and is larger in size.
Bearish engulfing — current candle body fully wraps the previous bullish body and is larger in size.
Doji — candles where the real body is small relative to the full range (high–low).
The detection is based on basic body and range geometry:
curr_body = math.abs(close - open)
prev_body = math.abs(close - open )
curr_range = high - low
body_ratio = curr_range > 0 ? curr_body / curr_range : 1.0
bull_engulfing = close > open and close < open and open <= close and close >= open and curr_body > prev_body
bear_engulfing = close < open and close > open and open >= close and close <= open and curr_body > prev_body
is_doji = curr_range > 0 and body_ratio <= doji_body_ratio
On the chart, they appear as:
Small triangle markers below bullish engulfing candles.
Small triangle markers above bearish engulfing candles.
Small circles above doji candles.
All three overlays are optional and can be turned on or off and recolored in the CANDLE PATTERNS group of inputs.
5. Inputs overview
The script organizes settings into clear groups:
DISPLAY SETTINGS : Show bullish/bearish FVGs, show/hide mitigated zones, box extension length, box border width, and maximum number of boxes.
EQUILIBRIUM : Toggle equilibrium lines, color, and line width.
LABELS : Enable labels, choose whether to label unmitigated and/or mitigated zones, and select label size.
BULLISH COLORS / BEARISH COLORS : Separate fill and border colors for bullish and bearish gaps.
MITIGATED STYLE : Opacity used when a gap is marked as mitigated.
STATISTICS : Toggle the on-chart FVG statistics panel.
CANDLE PATTERNS : Show engulfing patterns, show dojis, colors, and the body-to-range threshold that defines a doji.
6. Statistics panel
An optional table in the corner of the chart summarizes the current state of all tracked gaps:
Total number of FVGs still being tracked.
Number of bullish vs bearish FVGs.
Number of unfilled vs mitigated FVGs.
Simple fill rate: percentage of tracked FVGs that have been marked as mitigated.
This can help you study how a particular market tends to treat gaps over time.
7. How you might use it (examples)
These are usage ideas only, not recommendations:
Study how often your symbol mitigates gaps and where inside the zone price tends to react.
Use higher-timeframe context and then refine entries near the equilibrium line on your trading timeframe.
Combine FVG zones with basic candle patterns (engulfing/doji) as an extra visual anchor, if that fits your process.

Confluence Retournement Haussier - Ultimate V1This indicator was originally designed to visualize the right moment to enter a position. I buy stocks when they are falling, at the bottom before they rebound.
The 30‑minute chart with its 100 EMA was used as the baseline, but it can be applied to multiple timeframes. I even used it on a 1‑second chart for a ticker, and when there is volume it works wonderfully.
It’s up to you to check whether it fits the ticker you’re analyzing by testing it on historical data.
Drawback: it takes up screen space. Feel free to improve it.
See a ticker in freefall and wonder whether it’s a good time to buy or if it will keep falling? Switch your chart to 30 minutes and watch for triangles and green circles to start appearing.
You could call it momentum. Your background begins to show color when there is confluence. If it stays black, don’t buy.
Already in the trade and the screen turns black? Sell, and wait for the colors to return before buying back in
VCP Trendline breakoutThe Signal:
Green Triangles indicate the price is approaching the trendline (Watchlist candidate).
Yellow Triangles indicate the price is very tight against the line (Execution imminent).
The Trigger: When price closes above the Grey Dotted Line, the line stops extending. This is your breakout signal.
Indicator Overview
The The VCP Trendline breakout indicator is a sophisticated technical indicator designed for trend followers and breakout traders (O'Neil, Minervini, Wyckoff styles). This script employs a State Machine logic to identify structural Volatility Contraction Patterns (VCP) in real-time.
It automatically detects valid Bases, tracks the "Right Side" construction, identifies nested handles (contractions), and draws precise supply trendlines—while strictly enforcing structural integrity rules (Higher Lows).
Core Logic & Features
1. Smart Base Detection
Trend Filter: The pattern recognition engine only activates when the price is above the 200 SMA, ensuring you are trading with the primary trend.
Base Validation: It identifies a "Base High" (H1) based on a configurable lookback period. It tracks the depth of the base and automatically invalidates the pattern if the drawdown exceeds the user-defined threshold (default 30%).
2. Recursive Nested Trendlines (VCP)
The indicator is capable of drawing Nested Trendlines (recursive resistance). It doesn't just draw a line from the peak; it identifies internal contractions within the base.
H1 (Primary): The main supply line from the top of the base.
H2, H3 (Internal): Trendlines connecting subsequent lower highs (handles) as volatility contracts.
Smart Fan: Includes a "Clean Fan" mode to show only the most relevant, latest trendline per anchor point.
3. Structural Integrity Enforcement (The "Higher Low" Rule)
This is the standout feature of this script. It performs an Anchor Integrity Check on every bar.
In a valid VCP, every contraction must form a Higher Low.
If the price creates a new pivot (H3) but then crashes lower than the previous contraction's floor (H2), the script identifies this as a Structural Failure.
Auto-Deletion: It immediately retroactively deletes the invalid trendlines associated with that failed contraction, keeping your chart clean and free of "ghost" signals.
4. "Right-Side" Logic
Collision Detection: Trendlines are calculated using "Right-Side Clearance." A line is only drawn if the path from the anchor to the new pivot is unobstructed by price action.
Signal Protection: "Watch" and "Near" signals are suppressed during the decline phase (Left Side). They only appear once the "Bottom" (L1) has been confirmed and price is recovering on the Right Side.
5. Proximity Alerts & Breakouts
Watch Zone (Green Triangle): Appears when the Low of the bar is within 8% (configurable) of a valid trendline.
Near Zone (Yellow Triangle): Appears when the Low of the bar is within 4% (configurable) of a valid trendline.
Breakout Stop: Trendlines are dynamic. The moment a bar closes above a trendline, the line stops extending immediately, marking the exact breakout point.
How to Use This Indicator
The Setup: Look for a stock in an uptrend (Price > 200 SMA).
The Construction: Wait for the script to identify the Base High (H1). As the price corrects and begins to recover, you will see Grey Dotted Lines appear, connecting the highs.
The Contraction: Watch for Nested Trendlines. If you see a second or third line form from a lower high (H2, H3), it indicates a tightening of price action (VCP).
Settings Configuration
Moving Averages
21 EMA, 50 SMA, 200 SMA: Built-in reference averages.
Base Settings
H1 Lookback: How many bars back the script looks to find the "Start" of the base (Default: 21). Increase this for longer-term bases.
Sub-High Pivot Bars: Controls the sensitivity of identifying internal highs (handles).
Max Base Depth: If the base drops more than this % (Default: 30%), the structure is considered failed and lines are removed.
Enable Nested Trendlines: Toggle ON to see internal VCP lines (H2, H3). Toggle OFF to see only the main H1 trendline.
Show Only Latest Line: Keeps the chart clean by removing older lines from the same anchor point.
Visuals & Signals
Near/Watch Zone %: Adjust the sensitivity of the Green/Yellow triangles.
Signal Size: Change the size of the triangle markers.
DISCLAIMER
This is an indicator, not a trading system. Apply good risk management and do your own due diligence before putting your hard earned money into anything.
This script is for educational and analytical purposes only. It does not constitute financial advice. Automated pattern recognition has limitations and should always be verified visually.
The Quantum Leap: Renko + ML(Note: This indicator uses the BackQuant & SuperTrend which takes a 4-5 seconds to load)
This strategy uses the following indicators (please see source code)
Synthetic Renko: Ignores time and focuses purely on price movement to detect clear trend reversals (Red-to-Green).
ATR (Average True Range): Measures volatility to calculate the Renko brick sizes and SuperTrend sensitivity.
Adaptive SuperTrend: A trend filter that uses volatility clustering to confirm if the market is currently in a "Bearish" state.
RSI (Relative Strength Index): A momentum gauge ensuring the asset is "Oversold" (exhausted) before we consider a setup.
Monthly Pivots: Horizontal support lines based on last month's data acting as price "floors" (S1, S2, S3).
SMA (Simple Moving Average): A 100-bar average ensuring we are strictly buying below the long-term mean (deep value).
BackQuant (KNN): A Machine Learning engine that compares current data to historical patterns to predict immediate momentum.
This is a sophisticated, multi-stage strategy script. It combines "Old School" price action (Renko) with "New School" Machine Learning (KNN and Clustering).
Here is the high-level summary of how we will break this down:
Topic 1: The "Bottom Hunter" Setup. How the script uses Renko bricks and aggressive filtering (SuperTrend, SMA, RSI, Pivots) to find a potential market bottom.
Topic 2: The ML Engine (BackQuant & SuperTrend). How the script uses K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) to predict momentum and Volatility Clustering to adjust the SuperTrend.
Topic 3: The "Leap" Execution. How the script synchronizes the Setup (Topic 1) with the ML Trigger (Topic 2) using a time window.
Topic 1: The "Bottom Hunter" Setup
This script is designed as a Mean Reversion strategy (often called "catching a falling knife" or "bottom fishing"). It is trying to find the exact moment a downtrend stops and reverses.
Most strategies buy when price is above the 200 SMA or above the SuperTrend. This script does the exact opposite.
The Logic:
Renko Bricks: It simulates Renko bricks internally (without changing your chart view). It waits for a specific pattern: A Red Brick followed immediately by a Green Brick (a reversal).
The "Bearish" Filters: To generate a "WATCH" signal, the following must be true:
Price < SuperTrend: The market must officially be in a downtrend.
Price < SMA: Long-term trend is down.
Price < Monthly Pivot: Price is deeply discounted.
RSI < Threshold: The asset is oversold (exhausted).
Recommended Settings for daily signals for Stocks :
Confirmation : 10. (How many bars after Renko Buy signal the AI has to identify a bullish move).
Percentage : 2 (This is the Renko bar size. This represents 2% move.)
SMA: 100 (Signal must be found below 100 SMA)
Price must be below: PIVOT (This is the monthly Pivot levels)

Key Features
Classic MACD (12,26,9) with clean, high-visibility histogram coloring
ADX + DI filter – only takes trades when ADX > user-defined threshold (default 25) ensuring you trade only in strong trending markets
Smart Histogram Take-Profit logic – automatically detects the exact moment bullish/bearish momentum starts to weaken after a strong move and marks a precise TP level (one TP per trade – no repainting, no multiple signals)
Zero-line crossover confirmation + histogram direction filter – eliminates many whipsaw signals common in regular MACD
Separate RSI pane with overbought/oversold levels and visual markers (for additional confluence – does not interfere with main logic)
Visual Signals
Green “MACD BUY” label + lime triangle = confirmed long entry in strong trend
Red “MACD SELL” label + red triangle = confirmed short entry in strong trend
Small lime/red “TP” triangles = Smart Histogram Take-Profit triggered (perfect exit timing based on momentum fade)
Alert Conditions Included
MACD BUY
MACD SELL
TP Long Hit
TP Short Hit
Combined “Any Signal” alert
Why this version outperforms standard MACD
Most MACD crossovers fail in ranging markets. This script solves that by:
Requiring strong trend (ADX filter)
Confirming histogram is actually growing in the new direction
Waiting for the true zero-line cross with momentum
Giving you an intelligent, non-fixed % take-profit based on real histogram exhaustion
Excellent for swing trading, day trading, crypto, forex, and stocks on any timeframe (works especially well on 1H–4H–Daily).
Clean, fast, no repainting, fully alert-ready.

• Aggressive: Max Top + (Height × 1.618)
📊 Quality Scoring System (0–100)
1️⃣ Symmetry (30%)
Measures price match between the two bottoms or two tops.
High score (25–30): Near-perfect symmetry → very strong pattern
Medium (15–24): Good match → reliable signal
Low (5–14): Weak symmetry → use caution
Zero: No symmetry → invalid pattern
2️⃣ Trend Strength (20%)
Uses ADX and DI indicators.
20 pts: Strong trend confirmed (e.g., ADX ≥ 20 + correct DI alignment)
10 pts: Trend filter disabled
6 pts: Weak or sideways trend
3️⃣ Volume Behavior (20%)
Declining volume on second touch is a positive sign (shows exhaustion).
15–20 pts: Clear volume drop → strong signal
10 pts: Neutral volume
6 pts: Rising volume → higher risk of continuation
4️⃣ Pattern Depth (15%)
Deeper patterns = stronger reversals.
12–15 pts: Deep → high reversal power
8–11 pts: Medium → acceptable
<8 pts: Shallow → weak signal
5️⃣ Structural Integrity (15%)
Checks logical structure (e.g., Point 1 > Point 3 in Double Bottom).
12–15 pts: Ideal structure
8–11 pts: Minor flaws
<8 pts: Poor setup
📈 Final Quality Rating & Colors
• 85–100 → ⭐ Excellent
→ Double Bottom: Cyan #00BCD4
→ Double Top: Light Red #FF5252
• 75–84 → ✨ Very Good
• 65–74 → ✓ Good
• 60–64 → ○ Acceptable
→ All use Amber #FFC107
• <60 → ❌ Rejected (not shown)
→ Gray #9E9E9E
🔧 Dynamic Filters
1️⃣ ATR Filter (Volatility Check)
Rejects patterns in abnormally high volatility periods.
→ If current ATR > 1.8 × 50-period ATR MA → pattern rejected
✅ Recommended for crypto, small caps
❌ Optional for calm markets (gold, bonds)
2️⃣ ADX Filter (Trend Confirmation)

GOLD EMA Crossover Strategy This EMA Crossover Strategy is designed for intraday trading on the 5-minute chart.
It uses three EMAs (fast, mid, slow) to identify momentum shifts and trigger long or short entries. Risk management is dollar-based, with default settings of $100 risk per trade and $300 profit target. Entries are taken when the fast EMA crosses above/below the mid or slow EMA, with stops and targets calculated dynamically. The strategy runs across all hours and uses fixed position sizing (default 3 contracts). It is intended as a framework for traders to adapt and optimize to their own instruments and risk preferences.

Dynamic Support and Resistance with Trend LinesMain Purpose
The indicator identifies and visualizes dynamic support and resistance levels using multiple strategies, plus it includes trend analysis and trading signals.
Key Components:
1. Two Support/Resistance Strategies:
Strategy A: Matrix Climax
Identifies the top 10 (configurable) most significant support and resistance levels
Uses a "matrix" calculation method to find price levels where the market has historically reacted
Shows these as horizontal lines or zones on the chart
Strategy B: Volume Extremes
Finds support/resistance levels based on volume analysis
Looks for areas where extreme volume occurred, which often become key price levels
2. Two Trend Line Systems:
Trend Line 1: Pivot Span
Draws trend lines connecting pivot high and pivot low points
Uses configurable pivot parameters (left: 5, right: 5 bars)
Creates a channel showing the trend direction
Styled in pink/purple with dashed lines
Trend Line 2: 5-Point Channel
Creates a channel based on 5 pivot points
Provides another perspective on trend direction
Solid lines in pink/purple
3. Trading Signals:
Buy Signal: Triggers when Fast EMA (9-period) crosses above Slow EMA (21-period)
Sell Signal: Triggers when Fast EMA crosses below Slow EMA
Displays visual shapes (labels) on the chart
Includes alert conditions you can set up in TradingView
4. Visual Features:
Dashboard: Shows key information in a table (top-right by default)
Visual Matrix Map: Displays a heat map of support/resistance zones
Color themes: Dark Mode or Light Mode
Timezone adjustment: For accurate time display
5. Customization Options:
Universal lookback length (100 bars default)
Projection bars (26 bars forward)
Adjustable transparency for different elements
Multiple calculation methods available
Fully customizable colors and line styles
What Traders Use This For:
Entry/Exit Points: The EMA crossovers provide clear buy/sell signals
Risk Management: Support/resistance levels help set stop-losses and take-profit targets
Trend Confirmation: Multiple trend lines confirm trend direction
Key Price Levels: Identifies where price is likely to react (bounce or break through)
The indicator is quite feature-rich and combines technical analysis elements (pivots, EMAs, volume, support/resistance) into one comprehensive tool for trading decisions.

J&A Sessions & NewsProject J&A: Session Ranges is a precision-engineered tool designed for professional traders who operate based on Time & Price. Unlike standard session indicators that clutter the chart with background colors, this tool focuses on Dynamic Price Ranges to help you visualize the Highs, Lows, and liquidity pools of each session.
It is pre-configured for Frankfurt Time (Europe/Berlin) but is fully customizable for any global location.
Key Features
1. Dynamic Session Ranges (The Boxes) Instead of vertical stripes, this indicator draws Boxes that encapsulate the entire price action of a session.
Real-Time Tracking: The box automatically expands to capture the Highest High and Lowest Low of the current session.
Visual Clarity: Instantly see the trading range of Asia, London, and New York to identify breakouts or range-bound conditions.
2. The "Lunch Break" Logic (Unique Feature) Institutional volume often dies down during lunch hours. This indicator allows you to Split the Session to account for these breaks.
Enabled: The script draws two separate boxes (Morning Session vs. Afternoon Session), allowing you to see fresh ranges after the lunch accumulation.
Disabled: The script draws one continuous box for the full session.
3. Manual High-Impact News Scheduler Never get caught on the wrong side of a spike. Since TradingView scripts cannot access live calendars, this tool includes a Manual Scheduler for risk management.
Input: Simply input the time of high-impact events (e.g., CPI, NFP) from ForexFactory into the settings.
Visual: A dashed line appears on the chart at the exact news time.
Audio Alert: The system triggers an alarm 10 minutes before the event, giving you time to manage positions or exit trades.
Default Configuration (Frankfurt Time)
Asian Session: 01:00 - 10:00 (Lunch disabled)
London Session: 09:00 - 17:30 (Lunch: 12:00-13:00)
New York Session: 14:00 - 22:00 (Lunch: 18:00-19:00)
How to Use
Setup: Apply the indicator. The default timezone is Europe/Berlin. If you live elsewhere, simply change the "Your Timezone" setting to your local time (e.g., America/New_York), and the boxes will align automatically.
Daily Routine: Check the economic calendar in the morning. If there is a "Red Folder" event at 14:30, open the indicator settings and enter 14:30 into the News Scheduler.
Trade: Use the Session Highs and Lows as liquidity targets or breakout levels.
Settings & Customization
Timezone: Full support for major global trading hubs.
Colors: Customize the Box fill and Border colors for every session.
Labels: Rename sessions (e.g., "Tokyo" instead of "Asia") via the settings menu.
CSP Institutional Filter PRO This indicator evaluates whether a ticker qualifies for a high-probability Cash-Secured Put (CSP) based on an institutional options-selling framework. It checks RSI, momentum, support levels, ATR-based risk, IVR, DTE, and earnings timing to determine if the setup meets either the Standard CSP Module (30–45 DTE) or the Pre-Earnings CSP Module (7–21 days before earnings). The script visually marks valid setups, highlights risk zones, and provides an on-chart diagnostic summary.
Red to Green / Green to Red Tracker# Red to Green / Green to Red Tracker - Quick Reference
## Core Concept
```
PRIOR CLOSE = Yesterday's closing price = The "zero line" for today
Above Prior Close = 🟢 GREEN (profitable for yesterday's buyers)
Below Prior Close = 🔴 RED (losing for yesterday's buyers)
```
---
## The Two Key Moves
### 🟢 Red to Green (R2G)
```
OPEN: Below prior close (RED)
↓
CROSS: Price moves above prior close
↓
RESULT: Now GREEN - Bullish signal
```
**Why it matters:**
- Bears who shorted get squeezed
- Creates FOMO buying
- Momentum often continues
---
### 🔴 Green to Red (G2R)
```
OPEN: Above prior close (GREEN)
↓
CROSS: Price moves below prior close
↓
RESULT: Now RED - Bearish signal
```
**Why it matters:**
- Longs who bought get trapped
- Triggers stop losses
- Panic selling follows
---

### Entry Checklist
- Stock opened RED (below prior close)
- R2G cross signal triggered (green triangle)
- Volume confirmation (1.5x+ preferred, 2x+ ideal)
- Price holding above prior close
- Overall market not tanking
### Entry Method
1. **Aggressive:** Enter immediately on R2G cross
2. **Conservative:** Wait for pullback to prior close (now support)
### Stop Loss
- Below the R2G cross candle low
- OR below prior close (tighter)
### Target
- Prior day high (first target)
- 2:1 risk-reward minimum
---
## Trading G2R (Short Setup)
### Entry Checklist
- Stock opened GREEN (above prior close)
- G2R cross signal triggered (red triangle)
- Volume confirmation
- Price staying below prior close
- Overall market not ripping
### Entry Method
1. **Aggressive:** Enter immediately on G2R cross
2. **Conservative:** Wait for bounce to prior close (now resistance)
### Stop Loss

- OR above prior close (tighter)
### Target
- Prior day low (first target)
- Gap fill (if gapped up)
---
## Signal Quality
### High Quality R2G ✓
- Opened significantly red (-2% or more)
- Strong volume on cross (2x+)
- First R2G of the day
- Market trending up
- News catalyst present
### Low Quality R2G ✗
- Opened barely red (-0.5%)
- Low volume cross
- Multiple R2G/G2R already today (choppy)
- Fighting market direction
- No clear catalyst
---
## Common Patterns
### Clean R2G (Best)
```
Open red → Steady climb → Cross prior close → Continue higher
```
### Failed R2G (Avoid/Exit)
```
Open red → Cross to green → Immediately fail back to red
```
### Choppy R2G/G2R (Avoid)
```
Multiple crosses back and forth = Indecision, no clear direction
```
---
## First Cross Rule
**The FIRST R2G or G2R of the day is usually the most significant.**
Why?
- Catches traders off guard
- Largest reaction from market
- Sets tone for rest of day
If you miss the first cross, be more selective on subsequent crosses.
---
## Volume Guide
| Rel Volume | Quality | Action |
|------------|---------|--------|
| < 1.0x | Weak | Skip or small size |
| 1.0-1.5x | Average | Standard position |
| 1.5-2.0x | Good | Full position |
| 2.0x+ | Strong | High conviction |
---
## Settings Recommendations

3. Select alert type
4. Set notification method
---
## Combining with Other Indicators
| Indicator | How to Use |
|-----------|------------|
| **Gap & Go** | R2G on gap-down stock = strong reversal |
| **Bull Flag** | Look for bull flag after R2G confirmation |
| **Float Rotation** | R2G + high rotation = explosive potential |
| **VWAP** | R2G above VWAP = strongest setup |
---
## Common Mistakes
❌ **Chasing late R2G**
- If price is already 3-5% green, you missed the move
- Wait for pullback or next setup
❌ **Ignoring volume**
- Low volume R2G often fails
- Always check relative volume
❌ **Fighting the market**
- R2G in a tanking market often fails
- G2R in a ripping market often fails
❌ **No stop loss**
- Failed R2G can reverse hard
- Always have a defined stop
❌ **Overtrading choppy stocks**
- Multiple R2G/G2R = no clear direction
- Skip stocks that keep crossing back and forth
---
## Quick Decision Framework
```
1. Did it open opposite color? (Red for R2G, Green for G2R)
- NO → Lower probability, be cautious
- YES → Continue
2. Is volume confirming? (1.5x+ relative volume)
- NO → Skip or small size
- YES → Continue
3. Is this the first cross of the day?
- YES → Higher probability
- NO → Be more selective
4. Is market direction supportive?
- NO → Skip
- YES → Take the trade
5. Can you define risk? (Clear stop level)
- NO → Skip
- YES → Execute
```
---
## Key Takeaways
1. **Prior close is THE key level** - everyone watches it
2. **First cross matters most** - sets daily tone
3. **Volume confirms** - low volume crosses often fail
4. **Failed crosses reverse hard** - always use stops
5. **Don't overtrade choppy action** - multiple crosses = stay out

Confirm volume spike on breakout
Enter as close to entry line as possible
Set stop loss at red dashed line
Know your target levels
Trade Management
If no immediate follow-through → consider exit ("breakout or bailout")
Take 50% off at Target 1
Move stop to breakeven
Let remainder run toward Target 2
Exit fully if price returns below entry

Common Mistakes to Avoid
❌ Entering too early
Wait for actual breakout, not anticipation
"Forming" ≠ "Breakout"
❌ Ignoring volume
No volume = likely false breakout
Require 1.5x+ relative volume minimum
❌ Fighting the trend
Check EMA and VWAP status
Both should be ✓ for high probability
❌ Wide stops
Stop should be below pullback low
If stop is too wide, skip the trade
❌ Holding losers
"Breakout or bailout" - if it doesn't work, exit
Failed breakouts often reverse hard
❌ Chasing extended moves
If you missed entry, wait for next pattern
Don't chase 5+ candles after breakout
Risk Management Rules
Position Sizing
Risk Amount = Account × Risk % (typically 1-2%)
Position Size = Risk Amount ÷ (Entry - Stop)
Example:
Account: $25,000
Risk: 1% = $250
Entry: $5.00
Stop: $4.70
Risk per share: $0.30
Position Size: $250 ÷ $0.30 = 833 shares
