RSI TrendsRSI is a momentum indicator, however most people seem to be using it to go against the momentum by trying to identify tops/bottoms using it. Its in my opinion the wrong way to be using it. It can be easily used for trend following which seems like a better use for it.
Uptrend - RSI > 60
Downtrend - RSI < 40
Sideways - RSI between 40 and 60
If however not interested in filtering for sideways trends and convert it to a long-short only strategy that stays in market all the time then it can be simply modified by setting both overbought/oversold thresholds to 50. In such a case uptrend will be above 50 and downtrend will be less than 50.
Note: wait for close for current bar to be confirmed as RSI is calculated at close
Sideways
Consolidation and Breakout detectorExperimental : This script identifies the consolidation of a stock for selected time period. The consolidation period and range can be configured. 2 levels of consolidation levels can be selected. i.e Strong and medium. The range for strong and medium level of consolidation can also be configured by the user.
A movement in the direction of breakout of the consolidation level is observed most of the times. I have also added reversal line/stoploss line, so that the breakout movement is cancelled once that line is crossed by the candle close.
Currently consolidation levels are configured for 5 minute chart NSE:BANKNIFTY OANDA:NAS100USD . Can be reconfigured easily for any timeframe.
Tool: Chop and Trade Zones (v2)This is a refactored and advanced version of my filter tool "Chop and Trade Zones"
A simple yet powerful way to filter out choppy ranges or sideways moves without missing out on good trades.
It calculates the %-distance of the price to a moving average so you can ignore buy/sell signals around the center line.
The upper and lower line are thresholds to catch reversals of the trend when the distance to moving average is increasing.
New Features:
More than 60+ Moving Averages to choose from
Multi-Timeframe Selection with Repaint Protection
Signal Plot so you can access the signal from another TradingView study/strategy (0 = No Trade Zone / 1 = Long Only / 2 = Short Only / 3 = Long & Short Allowed)
Alerts for Long/Short Zones (you could enable/disable your trading bots automatically)

Sideways Money - Bitcoin BeatsHello, Hello, Hello,
And welcome back to Bitcoin Beats.
This is another version of my previous script, "Range Indicator - Bitcoin Beats".
Designed initially for breakouts but shows adaptive ranges and consolidation in XBTUSD(Haven't tested other assets but should do the same thing).
If we are consolidating (which is most of the time) a good strategy to trade would be to trade ranges. However, as soon as you spot the range it can feel like the range has changed so you lose out on making the monies.
This indicator plots out the average range in a consolidation.
It also shows you when the range has broken in a direction that it previously hasn't broken in. This essentially signifies the the trend changing and gives warning that trading the range may no longer be valid.
There are a few ways to trade this indicator and I will explain 2 of them here.
PLEASE TRADE AT YOUR OWN RISK. YOUR FUNDS ARE YOUR RESPONSIBILITY.
IF YOU TRADE WITH THESE STRATEGIES, YOU ARE TO BLAME FOR YOUR OWN LOSSES.
BY USING THIS INDICATOR YOU AGREE THAT I WILL NOT BE HELD LIABLE IN THE CASE OF YOU LOSING FUNDS.
Strategy 1:
- Have 2 bitmex accounts open.
- Use on the 30m, 1h, 3h or 12h.
- Long AND Short on both accounts when we hit the middle area. This is called the "Reload Zone".
- When we hit the edge of each side of the plotted range, close the positions in profit.
- You will then have 1 trade underwater.
- If the range is solid, the price will move back to the Reload Zone in which you reload you position that you took profit with.
- You then have both a Long AND Short open after 1 profitable trade.
- Rinse and repeat until you get the "STRATEGY CAUTION" message signifying that the range will most likely break soon.
Strategy 2(least profitable):
- When the "STRATEGY CAUTION" Message appears, you can long or short depending on which side it breaks toward.
- If we break down, short.
- If we break up, Long.
I wouldn't advise this second strategy if you are a beginner as the results are inconclusive and it's more of a hybrid trading strategy, meaning you have to know how to trade with price action flowing.
Usually if it is appearing volatile, you can go to a higher time frame and find the exact range it's catering to, adjusting your strategy accordingly.
See you soon,
Goodbye, from Bitcoin Beats.
Range Indicator - Bitcoin BeatsHello, Hello, Hello,
And welcome back to Bitcoin Beats.
Today I'm going to show you my Ranges Indicator. Designed initially for breakouts but an analysts mind quickly spots the other uses for this indicator.
If we are consolidating (which is most of the time) a good strategy to trade would be to trade ranges. However, as soon as you spot the range it can feel like the range has changed so you lose out on making the monies.
This indicator plots out the average range in a consolidation allowing you to take action and make those monies.
I've highlighted a profitable strategy in the picture that means you can make money on bitcoin when it goes sideways.
Usually if it is appearing volatile, you can go to a higher time frame and find the exact range it's catering to, adjusting your strategy accordingly.
The strategy I've highlighted in accordance with this indicator is longing AND shorting from the center point of a range and cashing out either side until the range breaks.
If you'd like a trial, please leave a comment and I'll add you to the list :)
See you soon,
Goodbye, from Bitcoin Beats.

DH: Grid Box Mapper For Grid TradingTHE GRID BOX MAPPER
This indicator maps out (literally puts a box around) potentially profitable grid range areas. Not only that... it highlights each grid range box (red or green) to indicate the likely trend tendency for the forthcoming price action. Rarely a day goes by when a grid trading opportunity is not waiting for you... never miss another winner!
Remember, when seeking a grid range for your trades, you are looking for a range in a sideways or upwardly trending market. This indicator presents prime spots where this potential may play out. It works with Heikin-Ashi candles (recommended) or traditional candles.
MULTIPLE RANGES DISPLAYED
Even though, I suggest a grid range from 4% to 8% on most cases, some traders prefer other range spans. For this reason, all range opportunities are exhibited so that you may evaluate each for your personalized trade preference.
TREND TENDANCY HIGHLIGHTED
If a grid box is highlighted in GREEN and meets your other criteria, you may be on your way to a successful trade. If a grid box is highlighted in RED, you should exercise caution before trading this area (it may be ok, but there is a detected trend tendency to the downside that you must consider). In addition, each grid box will update trend tendency via highlight color changes as prices and time moves forward. Do not abort an active grid trade just because a grid box changes trend colors (it may be a minor dip that adds buys that later turn to profits) . However, if you experience an extend trend change or a dramatic decline in prices, you may want to consider an exit or double check you have a stoploss or counter measure in place.
NOT ALL BOXES ARE CREATED EQUAL
This indicator is NOT a trade signal generator! As it's name implies, it is a "Grid Box Mapper." It is designed to HELP you map out where and how your next grid range might start. DO NOT assume the range indicated is the best range (the Grid Box Mapper merely suggests a range, but often you can expand or contract your range to hit support, resistance or FIB levels).
COMBINE WITH OTHER GRID INDICATORS
This indicator works best in combination with other indicators -PLUS- a thorough evaluation of the market you are entering. Alway check relevant structure, support, resistance, trend and prior price action before beginning any grid. Please consider a combination of other indicators I've created. This will help you refine your grid start parameters and opportunities. For example, this Grid Box Mapper works hand-in-glove with the GRID RANGE FINDER INDICATOR and the GRID START INDICATOR .
LESSONS IN HISTORY
There is a hidden value in this indicator if you scroll back in time and evaluate the various grid box opportunities mapped out. ASK YOURSELF: Would you have traded, why, what range and what was the outcome? You can use the Tradingview PLAYBACK feature to develop your skills at finding grid range opportunities. NOTE: The Tradingview PLAYBACK feature does not work with Heikin-Ashi candles (as a work-around, you and switch to traditional for playback).
