My Pivot Line Analysis Market Sentiment indicator (https://www.prorealcode.com/prorealtime-indicators/pivot-line-analysis-market-sentiment-indicator/) got me thinking. Why not use pivot line calculations to create pivot points for every candle instead of just daily pivot lines. Then we can compare the current candle’s lines with the previous candle’s and get an idea of immediate market sentiment.
This simple indicator helps us see immediate market sentiment at a glance. It can be applied on any time frame and any market.
A green bar indicates that this is a bullish candle.
A red bar indicates that this is a bearish candle.
A long blue bar indicates that this candle was a more volatile candle.
A short blue bar indicates that this candle was a candle of indecision.
The indicator bar below each candle refers to the sentiment of the candle immediately above it.
If the blue bar is raised then it indicates that the bulls came out slightly on top.
If the blue bar is lowered then it indicates that the bears came out slightly on top.
The blue bars are of the most interest and can be used to predict possible changes of market direction. Several blue bars in a row can indicate that the market is really going sideways and a breakout may happen soon.
H1 = High[0]//High
L1 = Low[0]//Low
C = Close[0]//Close
HH1 = High[1]//High
LL1 = Low[1]//Low
CC = Close[1]//Close
Pivot1 = (HH1 + LL1 + CC) / 3
R11 = 2*((HH1 + LL1 + CC) / 3)- LL1
S11 = 2*((HH1 + LL1 + CC) / 3)- HH1
Pivot = (H1 + L1 + C) / 3
R1 = 2*((H1 + L1 + C) / 3)- L1
S1 = 2*((H1 + L1 + C) / 3)- H1
//Outside Pivot Up
IF R1 > R11 and S1 < S11 and Pivot > Pivot1 THEN//R1 - R11 > S11 - S1 THEN
Flagup = 3
FlagDown = -2
R = 0
G = 0

//Outside Pivot Down

Flagup = 2
FlagDown = -3

I think that short time frame charts will be too noisy for this indicator. One blue bar really only indicates a slight hesitation in the market and on short time frames there will be an awful lot of hesitations. A longer time frame and looking out for periods with several blues in a row gives a better idea of whether the market has truly entered a period of indecision. Not tested but just based on my humble opinion.
Thank you for the indicator Vonasi. Very useful for manual trading.
Sorry - there is a cut and paste mistake in the above description. It should read: A green bar indicates that this is a bullish candle. A red bar indicates that this is a bearish candle. A long blue bar indicates that this candle was a more volatile candle. A short blue bar indicates that this candle was a candle of indecision. The indicator bar below each candle refers to the sentiment of the candle immediately above it.
Tested today in manual DAX trading (transcripted to MT and changed look into aka oszillator). Results: too noisy in M1, M5 better; seems there's a limit around 4 greens/reds before we get a blue. Seems to work good to get the highs/lows of default macd histogram.
