QM Signal [TradingFinder] Quasimodo Pattern - Head and Shoulders🔵 Introduction
One of the patterns in "RTM" is the "QM" pattern, also known as "Quasimodo". Its name is derived from the appearance of "Hunchback of Notre-Dame" from Victor Hugo's novel. It is a type of "Head and Shoulders" pattern.
🔵 Formation Method
🟣 Upward Trend
In an upward trend, the left shoulder is formed, and the price creates a new peak higher than the left shoulder peak . After a decline, it manages to break the previous low and move upward again. We expect the price to return approximately between and to form the "QM" pattern.
🟣 Downward Trend
In a downward trend, with a price decline, a new valley is created, forming the left shoulder, and the price forms a new valley lower than the left shoulder valley . After a price increase, it manages to break the previous high and move downward again. We expect the price to return approximately between and to form the "Quasimodo" pattern.
Note: The "QM" pattern is a specific type of head and shoulders pattern in which in the first move, the previous support is broken and it's the best condition for price reversal.
🔵 Entry Conditions for "Buy" and "Sell"
🟢 Buy
Buy Position : When a complete "QM" pattern is formed in a downtrend; we expect the price to reach the left shoulder area (with confirmation) during the retracement to enter the "BUY" position.
Profit Target in Buy Scenario : Expecting a move to the peak that broke it and the highest point in the current "Swing".
Stop Loss : Below the "Head," which is the lowest point.
🔴 Sell
Sell Position : When a "QM" pattern is formed in an uptrend, we look for entry into the "Sell" position as the price retraces to the left shoulder area.
Profit Target in Sell Scenario : Expecting a move to the price floor that has been broken and the entire "Swing" or .
Take Profit : Above the highest point or above the area will be the "SL" region.
Note : Certainly, no method alone guarantees trading capability and requires different confirmations. This indicator only detects the "QM" pattern, and the rest of the analysis will be the responsibility of the user.
Note : These profit and loss limits are based on market movements and will be provided as approximate and supportive.
Head_and_shoulder
Pro Trading Art - Head And ShouldersHow the Script Works:
1. The script identifies potential Head and Shoulders patterns by searching for specific pivot highs and pivot lows in the price data.
2. It checks for the presence of a left shoulder, head, and right shoulder based on the conditions defined in the script.
3. If a valid Head and Shoulders pattern is found, the script plots lines and labels on the chart to visualize the pattern.
4. The script also identifies Inverted Head and Shoulders patterns using similar logic but with different conditions.
5. It plots lines and labels for the Inverted Head and Shoulders pattern.
6. The script generates short and long conditions based on the patterns. Short conditions trigger when the close price crosses below the neck level of a Head and Shoulders pattern, while long conditions trigger when the close price crosses above the neck level of an Inverted Head and Shoulders pattern.
7. It plots sell and buy signal shapes on the chart when the short and long conditions are met, respectively.
8. The script can also trigger alerts to notify the user when a valid Head and Shoulders or Inverted Head and Shoulders pattern is detected.
9. The script provides visual cues on the chart to help users identify potential trading opportunities.
10. The logic and parameters of the script can be modified by the user to customize the behavior and adapt it to different trading strategies.
How Users Can Make Profit Using This Script:
1. Identify potential short-selling opportunities: When a valid Head and Shoulders pattern is detected and a short condition is met, it indicates a potential trend reversal. Traders can consider opening short positions to profit from a downward price movement.
2. Identify potential long-buying opportunities: When a valid Inverted Head and Shoulders pattern is detected and a long condition is met, it suggests a potential trend reversal. Traders can consider opening long positions to profit from an upward price movement.
3. Combine with additional analysis: Users can utilize this script as a tool in their overall trading strategy. They can combine the signals generated by the script with other technical indicators, fundamental analysis, or market sentiment to make more informed trading decisions.
4. Define appropriate entry and exit points: Traders can use the lines and labels plotted by the script to determine entry and exit points for their trades. For example, they may choose to enter a short position after the price crosses below the neck level and exit when the price reaches a predetermined target or when the pattern is invalidated.
5. Set risk management measures: It is important for users to implement proper risk management strategies when trading based on the script's signals. They should define stop-loss orders to limit potential losses if the trade goes against them and consider setting profit targets to secure profits when the trade moves in their favor.
Pivot Pattern Boundaries [cajole]
This script automatically detects horizontal support / resistance levels based on user-programmable criteria.
For example, you can detect boundaries with >3 touches within 200 days, allowing a tolerance of 1/4*ATR.
"Touches" are defined from pivots on the chart. The best way to search for larger/smaller patterns is to increase/decrease the pivot size.*
Future versions will allow "exceptions (i.e. keep drawing the horizontal line even if it is breached once or twice).
*TradingView's Pine script defines a Pivot as the highest point in a group. So, entering "2" means that a day's high needs to be above 2 days before and after (xxYxx) to be considered a high pivot.
This script can be an aid in drawing multiple patterns with horizontal boundaries (rectangles, triangles, head and shoulders, cup & handles, VCPs). I have intentionally avoided trying to code detection of the "other side" of these patterns, as that is where the craft of charting becomes an art.
Head and ShouldersGood day Traders,
Here is an indicator that I designed that is my version of the head and shoulders pattern. If you like it add it to your chart and see if it works for you.
The white trend lines are there to indicate to you how it more or less works. The green/red line is when the patter has been formed. I struggle to make it an area. If you know how please let me know or do it yourself.
I do hope this can help people and also help you make the right trades.
Please know that Im not a programmer and do this as a hobby.(The programming part)
Thank you :D
