Pivot Reversal Signals with ATR Exhaustion and Volume Spikes

Article Strategy library · Author: MyStrategyHub

Summary

This TradingView strategy looks for possible reversals near recent pivot support and resistance. It combines pivot levels with an ATR distance test, a volume spike relative to a moving average, and a simple candle direction or prior-bar break as the price trigger. Long entries are considered near a pivot low and shorts near a pivot high, with a stop placed at the relevant pivot or current bar extreme and a take-profit target set using a risk-to-reward multiple. Position quantity is calculated from a specified fraction of strategy equity and the distance to the stop.

The document supplies Pine Script logic and configurable parameters, but no backtest results or market-specific evaluation. The accompanying description is cut off, so it provides little additional evidence. Pivot confirmation uses bars to the right, which means a pivot is only identified after subsequent bars have formed; the rules also do not establish that a reversal is likely or account for transaction costs, slippage, or execution constraints. The approach should therefore be treated as a testable signal template rather than demonstrated evidence of profitability.

Key ideas

  • The strategy seeks long signals near the last pivot low and short signals near the last pivot high.
  • An ATR-based distance condition and above-average volume are required alongside a directional price trigger.
  • Stops are placed using the pivot or current bar extreme, and targets use a configurable risk-to-reward ratio.
  • Position quantity is derived from a chosen equity risk fraction and the stop distance.
  • The document provides no reported backtest results or evidence of performance.
