Darvas Boxes screener maybe doable in Prorealtime

  As far as I understand from what I’ve read so far in this forum, Prorealtime is not capable of creating a screener based on Darvas Boxes (correct me if I’m wrong). However, after seeing this detailed video about a Darvas Boxes screener clearly based on Tradingview, I believe something similar could be possibly developed. I don’t have the required skills to do it. Here is the video, please check it out and let me know if this is doable. Thank you.

  These are a couple of links to the indicator https://www.prorealcode.com/prorealtime-indicators/darvas-boxes-2/, https://www.prorealcode.com/prorealtime-indicators/darvas-boxes/. Which one are you using?

  What signal should the screener return (when the box is broken)?

  Hi Roberto, I was only aware of the first link. The needed signal should be buy at breakout. Having such a screener would be great. Check this interesting article “The 7 Best Price Action Patterns Ranked by Reliability”: https://samuraitradingacademy.com/7-best-price-action-patterns/

  The statistics on the price action of 7 patterns were accumulated through testing of 10 years of data and over 200,000 patterns.  In all these cases the price action patterns were only included once they were considered to be complete, which usually means a full break of a support/resistance area or trendline.

  All the main patterns (excluding Cup & Handle) were examined and Darvas Boxes was the second most reliable one.

  Therefore, getting such a screener would be extremely interesting for all the community.

  Sorry, I didn’t have a chance to read it. I’ll take an in-depth look at it asap 🙂
