Breakout FilterIntroduction:
The Breakout Filter is a technical analysis indicator designed to identify potential breakout trading opportunities in the financial markets. It combines breakout conditions based on price and volume with the visualization of Exponential Moving Average (EMA) lines. This indicator can be a valuable tool for traders seeking to capture breakout movements while utilizing EMA lines for additional trend analysis.
Indicator Overview:
The Breakout Filter consists of three main filters: Filter 1, Filter 2, and Filter 3. Each filter has its own set of conditions that need to be met for a breakout signal to be generated. Additionally, the indicator plots EMA lines on the chart to provide further insights into the market trend.
Filter 1: Price & Volume Breakout (Default symbol: Tiny Yellow Triangle)
Filter 1 focuses on identifying breakouts based on both price and volume criteria. It considers the following conditions:
- Price Breakout: The close price crosses above the Donchian Channel's middle line, indicating a potential upward breakout.
- Volume Breakout: The trading volume exceeds the moving average of volume, suggesting increased market participation during the breakout.
When both the price breakout and volume breakout conditions are met, Filter 1 generates a signal indicating a potential breakout in the market. This filter helps traders identify significant price movements accompanied by higher trading volumes.
Filter 2: Upper Band Breakout
Filter 2 specifically looks for breakouts above the upper band of the Donchian Channel. This condition suggests a potential strong upward momentum in the market. When the high price exceeds the upper band, Filter 2 generates a signal, indicating a breakout above the recent price range.
Filter 3: Combined Filter 1 and Filter 2
Filter 3 combines the conditions of both Filter 1 and Filter 2. It requires that both Filter 1 and Filter 2 generate signals simultaneously. When this happens, it indicates a strong breakout signal with price and volume confirming the upward momentum.
EMA Lines:
The Breakout Filter with EMA Lines also includes the visualization of Exponential Moving Average (EMA) lines on the chart. EMA is a popular technical indicator used to identify the overall trend in the market. The indicator plots three EMA lines with different periods: EMA1, EMA2, and EMA3. Traders can choose the periods for each EMA line based on their preference and trading strategy.
The EMA lines can provide additional insights into the market trend and potential support or resistance levels. By observing the interaction between the price and the EMA lines, traders can gain a better understanding of the prevailing market sentiment and make informed trading decisions.
How to screen these filters using Trading View Screener
Insert column "DONCHIAN20 UP" and set to "EQUAL HIGH"
Conclusion:
The Breakout Filter with EMA Lines is a comprehensive indicator that combines breakout conditions based on price and volume with the visualization of EMA lines. It helps traders identify potential breakout trading opportunities while providing insights into the market trend. By using this indicator, traders can enhance their trading strategies and potentially improve their trading outcomes.

Donchian Channels StrengthTL;DR - A different approach calculating strength based on Donchain channels
My approach calculating strength by using the difference between price and donchain average. It is possible to use the highest/lowest value of a given source (like close) or to use the highest high/lowest low (by using the option 'include wicks') for the strength calculation
I added multiple moving averages which can be used in the calculations incl. SMMA (RMA) which is used in RSI calculation and works best for me.
Usage is similar to RSI: DC Strength oscillates between 0 and 100. Low values (<20) indicate a bearish situation while high values (>80) indicate bullish ones. Center line (50) crossings can also indicate a possible trend change.
TrendLine ChannelsAbstract
This script provides a set of Trendline Channels which can be tighter than Donchian Channels.
This script computes the most suitable active upper and lower trendlines and updates them as soon as possible.
We can use it for breakout signals earlier than Donchian Channels.
Introduction
Channels are tools which can mark area of values of ranging markets.
Once the price leaves the original region, range traders may start admitting they are wrong and trigger trend.
Donchian Channels (misheard as Dungeon Channels) use the highest and the lowest price to define area of values.
When the price breakouts, it just like it got released from a dungeon.
However, waiting for the price making even higher or lower may be too late and risk reward ratio may be lower.
Trendlines can make the channels tighter and we can find earlier breakout signals.
Computing Trendline Channels
(1) Find the most active trendlines
In this script, a valid trendline connects two high values or two low values.
A high value means the highest value in a trading day.
A low value means the lowest value in a trading day.
In this script, every trendline does not crossover any bar but can exactly touch them.
The most flat trendline is taken. (one for upper and one for lower)
(2) Continue to use or Change a trendline
If there is a tighter trendline available, this script changes to use it.
If the previous active trendline is broken, this script re-computes the trendline available.
When this case happens, this script display with an another color.
Otherwise, this script continues using the previous trendline.
(3) Middle line
The middle line indicates the middle value between the upper and the lower.
Parameters
Length : how many days are used for computation. The default value is 16 just because 16=4*4, using binary characteristic.
x_go_on : If the previous trendline is not breakout and there are no tighter trendlines available, we continue use it.
Color Options
(1) Upper trendline (no update or tighter)
(2) Upper trendline (changed due to breakout)
(3) Middle line
(4) Lower trendline (no update or tighter)
(5) Lower trendline (changed due to breakout)
Conclusion
Trendline Channels can be tighter than Donchian Channels and evaluate earlier breakout signals.
Comparing to known auto trendline scripts, Trendline Channels is continuous.
Once a trendline is broken, Trendline Channels can instantly point out the next available one.
If you think the price movement is boring or you cannot have good risk reward ratio, you can go to an another timeframe.

How to trade with Donchian Channels
How to trade with Trendlines
Fat Side PathI got the idea for a narrow Donchian Channel with a short lookback period which closely follows the price fluctuation in which the sides of the channel have a thickness according to the range of the last touching candle.
Any channel, be it Donchian, Keltner, Bollinger Bands or Parallel, has an upside and a downside, touching the upside is a buy signal as this may initiate an uptrend, the downside a sell signal because a down trend may come.
This gave me the idea to make only the last touched side fat, thus creating visible switching between uptrend and downtrend. However this is ‘too digital’, as in practice also periods of no trend occur in which signaling a trend would give a false signal. In a Donchian channel (and also Bollinger Bands) such periods are marked by narrowing the channel. So I gave a no trend signal to the sides when the channel is narrower than a minimum width to call a trend. I gave the thing nice colours and proper default settings.
Use of the channel in trading.
I think this thing can be useful for swing trading. In channels two typical things may happen that should be noted by the trader, these are LB, Leaving the Border, which signals a trend reversal and FTT, Failure To Traverse, i.e. the price doesn’t manage to cross the channel to the other side. This affirms the trend. FTT’s are not expected in short lookback channels like this path (Sidenote: Fibonacci levels can be regarded as predictions where FTT’s may occur). The fat side indicates direction. Because somehow trends seem to end with a notable range extension, this channel sometimes produces a “Big Blob” where the trend reverses.
I intend to use this thing together with my Keltner Fibzones channel, where the zones serve as a ‘landscape’ in which the Fat Side Path meanders providing ‘comments’ on the short term price movements.
Trend Impulse FilterIntroduction
There is a lot of indicators similar to this one, however i think this one don't share the same calculation method and this is why i share it. This indicator aim to forecast price direction using an exponential filter architecture using highest and lowest information for the estimation of a smoothing variable. This filter is similar to the average Max-Min filter.
The Indicator
In the code a is equal to 1 when the price is greater or lower than any past price over length period, else a is equal to 0. The center parameter control the filtering degree of the output, when center is equal to 1 and a = 1 the indicator return the highest or lowest depending on market current trend, when center is superior to 1 the output will be smoother, however the reactivity of the indicator will still depend on the length parameter.
A color option show you the trend of the market, however the generated signals are the same that can be generated from a Donchian channel.
When highest is greater than previous highest the indicator direction will move upward, else if lowest is lower than previous lowest the indicator direction will move downward. Therefore the indicator can give information on the Donchian channels direction and provide a nice filter.
Conclusions
Adapting to highest and lowest can make an indicator adapt to the essence of trend trading, the indicator i showed can be used as source for others indicator or in MA crossover strategies. If you have a strategy using Donchian channels you may be interested in using this indicator and se how it fit in your strategy. Hope you like it.
Thanks for reading !
EASY SYSTEMSo how to use this very easy system
we have two system the first is based on ATR resistance and support and the other based on % channel based on donchian channel
The black line is the price line
The red lines are % line of the donchian channel (here it set to 2 and 3 % (you can set it any number you want ) this lines are the low end
Theblue d lines are % line of the donchian channel (here it set to 2 and 3 % (you can set it any number you want ),this lines are upper end
you look at the resistance and the support of the ATR and on the % channel
lets say you decide to go long -best if it in lower end of your % channel you can either set alert if price crossup the lower % line that you set
and you can make take profit if it reach the target level by % of the line of your choice
oposite you do in shorting
using the build in alert in TV you can make your trade more easy setting the target in more logical way
Step RiderRelease Note:
Idea of this script is to ride on the trend. Multiple dynamic support and resistance are identified and those levels are used
Step Lines:
There are 3 different periods by default are used to define 3 different step lines. On any trend, either of these 3 steps shall play major role
Color Strength:
Change in Red & Green color and its thickness changed based on how strong the up or down trend is.
Disclaimer:
//Disclaimer: Idea of publishing this script is to identify the strength of the instrument using multiple confirmation.
//Disclaimer: Using this indicator, changing inputs, and trading decisions are up to the users/traders.

VPCI MA cross [LM]Hello guys,
I would like to introduce you a script that combines two indicators: VPCI( volume price confirmation indicator) and donchian MAs
VPCI:
Fundamentally, the VPCI reveals the proportional imbalances between price trends and volume-adjusted price
trends. An uptrend with increasing volume is a market characterized by greed supported by the fuel needed to
grow. An uptrend without volume is complacent and reveals greed deprived of the fuel needed to sustain itself.
Investors without the influx of other investors ( volume ) will eventually lose interest and the uptrend should
eventually breakdown.
A falling price trend reveals a market driven by fear. A falling price trend without volume reveals apathy, fear
without increasing energy. Unlike greed, fear is self-sustaining, and may endure for long time periods without
increasing fuel or energy. Adding energy to fear can be likened to adding fuel to a fire and is generally bearish
until the VPCI reverses. In such cases, weak-minded investor's, overcome by fear, are becoming irrationally
fearful until the selling climax reaches a state of maximum homogeneity. At this point, ownership held by weak
investor’s has been purged, producing a type of heat death capitulation. These occurrences may be visualized by
the VPCI falling below the lower standard deviation of a Bollinger Band of the VPCI, and then rising above the
lower band, and forming a 'V' bottom.
I have used MA's on top of VPCI and looking for crosses. Percatage that is shown in label is calculation of difference between previous cross and current close price. So you know if you would be flipping what % you would gain or loose, all is rounded with precission of two
DONCHIAN
I took donchain calculation from ichimoku to calculate conversion line and base line(both are giving me information about whether it's trending or not and distance from the mean)
There are various sections in setting:
VPCI - setting of MA lengths(for smaller timeframes I recommend using bigger MA length)
DONCHAIN - setting length for conversion and base line
Any suggestions are welcome
ATR-ranged Donch on 15min// This is a simple Mean Reversion & Breakout Indicator.
// A Donchian Channel is plotted. A threshold equal to 0.25 of Daily ATR.
// If price reverses from this threshold, then it can be taken as possible Mean Reversion.
// If price crosses the previous Donchian levels, it can be taken as a possible breakout.
// Typical of such strategy is the whipsaw effect when price movement is just flat.
// I have marked the region where the lower and higher thresholds are closer to be an indicative of whipsaw.
// But it is not really effective to avoid whipsaw.
PIVOT DONThis indicator is great to detect resistance and support
The H and L are based on new high and low formed by Donchian cahnnel , the lines of support and resistance are based on pivot system
by the TF you can control the time length of the donchian channel
no alert to this system
Consecutive Highs/LowsTrack consecutive new highs/lows outside the Donchian range. Fans of the oldschool Turtle Strategy should enjoy the visualization.
Same logic as my "Walking the Bands" script, just with Donchian breaks instead of Bollinger tags.
Bagheri IG Ether v2In this version, the winning ratio has been decreased, but the Risk to Reward Ratio (RRR) has been set to be better than the previous version.
This is a technical trading strategy for Ethereum ( BINANCE:ETHUSDT ). We built and developed it on MetaEditor and optimized it with MetaTrader optimizer.
The main indicators are Donchian Channel, Oscillator of ROC , Bears Power, Balance of Power , and Simple Moving Average ( SMA ). Default values in the input panel are the best combination of these indicators, but you can change any of them and try it for better results.
Please notice that this strategy has been optimized on the 1-minute chart of Ethereum .
For each position, you can see the Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) levels. Also, you can find the values of mentioned TP and SL in points from the input panel of the script.
Attention: The price of Ethereum has 2 decimal places.
Therefore, 3000 points for TP means 30 USDT for trading 1 BINANCE:ETHUSDT .
[RS]MTF Intraday Dayly Range V0calculation to display a dayly donchian channel at any intraday timeframe.
Donchian Cloud-V1The Donchian Cloud-V1 is a technical analysis indicator inspired by the Ichimoku Cloud, but with a twist. It utilizes two Donchian Channel midline calculations to create a cloud-like price zone. This indicator aims to help traders identify potential areas of support and resistance, and also suggests that trades should be avoided when prices are within the cloud.
How it Works?
The Donchian Cloud-V1 calculates two Donchian Channel midlines:
Fast Donchian Channel: This midline is based on a shorter period, making it more responsive to price changes.
Slow Donchian Channel: This midline is based on a longer period, providing a smoother and more stable cloud formation.
The upper and lower bands of the traditional Donchian Channels are discarded, and the midlines become the cloud's upper and lower boundaries.
Interpretation
Price Above the Cloud: A price move above the cloud can be interpreted as a bullish signal, suggesting potential upward momentum.
Price Below the Cloud: A price move below the cloud can be interpreted as a bearish signal, suggesting potential downward momentum.
Price Within the Cloud: The indicator advises against taking any trades when the price is within the cloud itself, as the market may be unclear or ranging.
Benefits of Using the Donchian Cloud-V1
Visually Appealing: The cloud can provide a clear and concise view of potential support and resistance zones.
Customizable: The lengths of the fast and slow Donchian Channels can be adjusted to suit your trading style and preferred timeframe.
Complements Other Indicators: The Donchian Cloud-V1 can be used in conjunction with other technical indicators to strengthen trade signals.
Limitations to Consider
Lagging Indicator: Like many technical indicators, the Donchian Cloud-V1 is based on past price data and may not always perfectly predict future price movements.
False Signals: The cloud can generate false signals, especially in volatile markets.
Not a Standalone Strategy: The Donchian Cloud-V1 should ideally be used alongside other trading strategies and risk management techniques.
The Donchian Cloud-V1 is a valuable tool for traders who want to identify potential support and resistance zones and avoid making trades during periods of market uncertainty. Remember, it's important to backtest and paper trade any indicator before using it with real capital.
Donchian MA Bands [LuxAlgo]The Donchian MA Bands script is a complete trend indicator derived from the popular Donchian channel indicator as well as various customizable moving averages to estimate trend direction and build support/resistance levels & zones.
🔶 USAGE
The indicator outputs various elements, the main ones being a lower dynamic zone (blue by default), an upper dynamic zone (in orange by default), and one support and resistance level/zones (red/green by default).
A prominent lower zone is indicative of an uptrend, while a prominent upper zone is indicative of a downtrend. These zones can be used as support/resistance as well.
Support/resistance zones and levels can be used using a breakout methodology or to determine price bounced if a level was tested multiple times.
The indicator contains various modes affecting the output of the indicator, described below.
🔹 Clouds
Clouds return one upper/lower dynamic zone and look/act similarly to a trailing stop. Price over the lower zone is indicative of an uptrend, and price under the upper zone is indicative of a downtrend.
🔹 Upper Band
The upper band mode returns a dynamic zone closer to prices during an uptrend, and farther away during a downtrend.
This band can act as a support during uptrends.
🔹 Lower Band
The lower band mode returns a dynamic zone closer to prices during an uptrend, and farther away during a downtrend.
This band can act as a resistance during downtrends.
🔹 Bands
Bands return both upper and lower zones, the zones are more apparent depending on the price trend direction, with uptrends being indicated by a more visible lower zone, and downtrends being indicated by a more visible upper zone.
Breakout dots are highlighted when price breakout the indicator displayed extremities, and can be indicative of a confirmed trend reversal.
These breakouts can be more effective for trend following during trending markets. Ranging markets might return breakouts highlighting the top/bottom.
🔶 DETAILS
The core of this script is the highest / lowest mean average (MA) value for a given number of bars back ( Donchian lines).
This is repeated a few times with the obtained values.
When Bands are chosen ( Style ) this will be repeated 1 more time.
The type of mean average can be customized ( Type MA ), as well as the number of bars back ( Length ).
Depending on the choice of bands ( Style ) the script will focus on certain area's of interest.
When the option Clouds , Upper band or Lower band is chosen, an extra feature, support/resistance (S/R), will be shown.
These color-filled areas are visible when there is a difference between the 2nd and 3rd highest/lowest values.
The lines/areas can be used for stop loss, entry, exit,...
You can set the type of MA and Length separately ( Settings -> S/R ).
If you don't need this feature, simply set Type ( Settings -> S/R ) -> NONE
The shape sometimes resembles triangles, indicating a potential direction
Default the average of the highest and lowest values is plotted (Style -> Mid Donchian)
This can act as potential support/resistance or visualization of the trend, the mean average is not plotted but can be (Style -> MA)
🔹 Note
When the option Bands is chosen, an indication is plotted when the closing price breaks above the highest band or breaks below the lower band. This isn't necessarily a buy/sell signal, it is merely a signal that these lines are broken.
Users should decide on their own how they use the bands/lines/areas as entry, exit, trailing stop, stop loss, profit taking,...
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Bands
Style: Clouds (default), Upper band, Lower band, Bands
Type MA: choose between SMA, EMA, RMA, HullMA, WMA, VWMA (default), DEMA, TEMA, NONE (off)
Length: Length of moving average and Donchian calculations (default 20)
Colour Bands
🔹 S/R (Support/Resistance, visible with Clouds, Upper band or Lower band)
Type MA: choose between SMA, EMA, RMA, HullMA, WMA, VWMA (default), DEMA, TEMA, NONE (off)
Length: Length of moving average and Donchian calculations (default 20)

Donchian Channel Trend Tracker by KellyLikesCrypto### Overview
This indicator is written in Pine Script® (version 6) and is designed to overlay on a price chart. It combines the classic Donchian Channel—a tool popular among trend-following traders—with additional trend-tracking features. By identifying when the channel’s highs and lows are making new extreme values, the indicator helps signal potential trend shifts. It is especially suited for scalpers using 1-hour charts, as it provides clear, actionable signals for rapid entry and exit decisions.
---
### Key Components & Inputs
1. **User Inputs:**
- **Length:** The period over which the indicator calculates the highest high and the lowest low (default is 27 bars). This value can be adjusted to smooth or tighten the channel based on the trader’s preference.
- **Offset:** A parameter allowing the plotted lines to be shifted left or right on the chart, providing flexibility in aligning the indicator with price action.
2. **Donchian Channel Calculations:**
- **Lower Bound (`lower`):** Calculated using `ta.lowest(length)`, it identifies the lowest low over the defined period.
- **Upper Bound (`upper`):** Determined by `ta.highest(length)`, capturing the highest high during the same period.
- **Basis:** The midline of the channel, computed as the average of the upper and lower bounds. This line can serve as an equilibrium or reference point in the trend analysis.
---
### Visual Representation
- **Plotting the Channels:**
- The **basis** is plotted in a standout orange color (#FF6D00) to make the central trend reference easily visible.
- The **upper** and **lower** bounds are plotted in blue (#2962FF), creating clear boundaries for the price action.
- The area between these two lines is filled with a semi-transparent blue, enhancing the visual context of the channel and helping traders quickly assess whether price is near an extreme or within a normal range.
---
### Trend Identification Logic
Beyond plotting the basic Donchian Channel, the indicator introduces additional logic to track short-term trend changes:
1. **Higher Highs and Higher Lows:**
- **Higher High (`higherHigh`):** This condition checks if the current upper bound is greater than the previous bar’s upper bound, signaling a potential upward push.
- **Higher Low (`higherLow`):** Similarly, it checks if the current lower bound exceeds the previous bar’s lower bound, reinforcing an upward trend if the support level is rising.
2. **Lower Highs and Lower Lows:**
- **Lower High (`lowerHigh`):** This evaluates if the current upper bound is less than that of the previous bar, indicating a possible downward shift.
- **Lower Low (`lowerLow`):** It verifies if the current lower bound is lower than the previous bar’s, further confirming a bearish tendency.
The use of the `nz()` function ensures that on the very first bar—where no previous data exists—the code handles the values gracefully without causing errors.
---
### Visual Markers for Trend Signals
To make trend signals immediately apparent:
- **Markers are Plotted on the Chart:**
- **Green Labels ("HH" and "HL"):** These are placed on the chart when the indicator detects higher highs or higher lows, suggesting bullish momentum.
- **Red Labels ("LH" and "LL"):** These markers are shown when lower highs or lower lows are detected, indicating bearish pressure.
Each label is plotted either above or below the corresponding bar, ensuring that the chart remains uncluttered and that the trend signals are clear.
---
### Scalping Strategy on 1-Hour Charts
This indicator is specifically tailored for scalping strategies on 1-hour charts. Scalping involves capturing small, rapid profits from short-term price movements, and the clear trend signals provided by this tool can help traders pinpoint optimal entry and exit points. Here’s how it integrates into a scalping strategy:
- **Quick Trend Identification:** The green markers (HH and HL) suggest bullish conditions ideal for quick long entries, while the red markers (LH and LL) signal bearish conditions suitable for short entries.
- **Timing and Precision:** On a 1-hour chart, the indicator’s sensitivity to higher highs and lower lows allows traders to make rapid decisions aligned with the prevailing trend.
- **Complementary Analysis:** While the indicator provides fast signals, it is recommended to use it alongside additional tools (like oscillators or volume analysis) and strict risk management practices, ensuring that scalpers can confirm entries and exits efficiently.
By leveraging the indicator’s visual cues within a broader scalping framework, traders can enhance their ability to capture quick moves, thus optimizing their overall strategy on 1-hour timeframes.
---
### Conclusion
The “Donchian Channel Trend Tracker by KellyLikesCrypto” is a powerful tool for visualizing price extremes and trend direction. By combining the classical Donchian Channel with additional trend-tracking markers, it offers traders a clear and immediate way to assess whether the market is gaining bullish momentum or beginning to turn bearish. Its customizable parameters and clear visual signals make it particularly effective for a scalping strategy on 1-hour charts, where rapid decision-making is crucial.
This detailed breakdown should provide a comprehensive understanding of how each component of the indicator works together and how it can be effectively integrated into a short-term scalping strategy.

Donchian Channels Osciliator with MA validationWhat's it all about?
This nifty little tool, the Donchian Channels Oscillator, helps you spot when a stock might be overbought or oversold. It's like a price detective, looking for clues in the historical data to figure out if it's time to buy or sell.
How does it work?
Think of it as a seesaw. When the price is way above the Donchian Channels, it's like the seesaw is tilted too far to one side. That might mean it's time to sell before it falls. On the other hand, if the price is way below the channels, it's like the seesaw is tilted too far to the other side. This could be a good sign to buy, as the price might be ready to bounce back.
Key Points:
Donchian Channels: These are like safety nets. They're calculated based on the highest and lowest prices over a certain period.
Oscillator: This is just a fancy word for a tool that swings back and forth. In this case, it swings between overbought and oversold zones.
EMA-Line: This is a smoothed-out version of the oscillator. It helps you see the overall trend more clearly.
How to Use It:
Add it to your chart: Find it in the indicator search bar.
Adjust settings: You can tweak the length of the Donchian Channels and the offset to fit your trading style.
Watch the swings: When the oscillator goes way up, it might be time to sell. When it goes way down, it might be time to buy. But always use this with other indicators for confirmation.
Remember: This is just a tool, not a magic crystal ball. Don't rely solely on it for trading decisions. Always do your own research and consider other factors.
Happy trading!
Donchian RSI BandsThis little mashup of mine is called the Donchian RSI Bands. It consists of two RSI's, a Donchian Channel, & Bollinger bands, which can all be turned on or off depending on your preferences.
The main RSI is set to the 7 length and the second RSI is set to the default 14 length. When used together, they form an RSI cloud.
The Bollinger Bands are set to the 35 length and use two sets of adjustable deviations to form the bands. The inner band is set to 0.25 deviation and the outside is set to 0.5. Generally, the Bollinger Bands deviation is set to 2 but for this idea, when the RSI is inside the Bollinger Bands, there's a higher possibility of chop. The stronger Bullish or Bearish trend will be when the main RSI is trending above or below the Bollinger Bands.
The RSI color is Bullish when the RSI is above the Upper Bollinger Band, Neutral when the RSI is inside the Bands, and Bearish when the RSI is below the lower Bollinger Band. The wider you adjust the Outer Band Deviation, the wider the Neutral zone will be. The width of the Bollinger Band Basis can also be adjusted so you could widen it all the way out to the Bands which will form a fully shaded channel to avoid trading when the RSI is trending inside.
The Donchian Channel is set to 70, which 2x the Bollinger Band length. I use it for longer term trends and possible trend reversals.
There are 3 options for Barcoloring:
RSI Bollinger Bands
RSI Cloud
& when the RSI is above/below the Donchian Channel Basis
Donchian Channel CloudsFor this indicator, I got inspired by this paragraph in an article on Investopedia:
"Donchian channels also make natural partners with another moving average indicator for a crossover strategy. The Donchian moving average middle line is likely to form the short-term average in these situations, although some have used a 20-day Donchian channel in conjunction with a five- or 10-day channel to exit a position before a consolidation eats into short-term profits."
The default is a 20-period Donchian channel with the middle line from a 10-period channel superimposed on it. Red for 20, green for 10. When 10 is over 20, the cloud between them is green; the cloud is red when 20 is over 10.

If the price is falling with bearish candles and touching the lower Donchian Channel, the bearishCondition flag is set to true.
When a bullish candle appears afterward, the flag is reset, and the bullishReversalSquare condition becomes true.
Bullish Side Logic:
If the price is rising with bullish candles and touching the upper Donchian Channel, the bullishCondition flag is set to true.
When a bearish candle appears afterward, the flag is reset, and the bearishReversalSquare condition becomes true.
Plotting Squares:
A green square is plotted below the candle when bullishReversalSquare is true.
A red square is plotted above the candle when bearishReversalSquare is true.
Scanner Output:
The scanCondition variable is true when either bullishReversalSquare or bearishReversalSquare is true.
How to Use the Script:
On the Chart:
Add the script to your chart.
You will see squares plotted on the chart when the conditions are met:
Green squares below the candle for bullish reversals.
Red squares above the candle for bearish reversals.
In the Scanner:
Open the Scanner tab in TradingView.
Click on "Create New Scanner".
In the "Condition" field, select the script you just created.
Choose the market or watchlist you want to scan (e.g., "NYSE", "NASDAQ", or a custom watchlist).
Run the scan. The Scanner will return a list of instruments where the scanCondition is true.
Why This Works:
The scanCondition variable is now properly declared and used.
The plotchar function explicitly outputs the scanCondition variable as a plot, which the Scanner can recognize.
