VaviStar is an indicator based on trend retracements determined by ZigZag segments.
It is theorized, and statistics confirm, that stocks react to certain retracement levels. Many use Fibonacci retracement levels (23.6%, 38.2%, 61.8%).
It is assumed that once the price goes beyond the 61.8% retracement, we can already speak of a trend reversal.
This indicator allows you to comfortably chart a segment of the ZigZag with the relative operating levels chosen.
With a reversal mindset, you can use it to trade between stop loss and retracement levels (perhaps 61.8%).
With a trend follower mentality, one can look for a restart after bounces off the retracement level (perhaps 23.6% or 38.2%).
For strategies like these, it is advisable to deactivate the display of the Stop Loss level.
Real-time use.
If we evaluate the current segment and if “show StopLoss line” to “true”, we will be updated tick by tick if the target is still contemplated as it is still closer than the retracement level.
Graphically, the last generated segment will be pointed to and relative levels will be updated with each quotation change.
Historical usage.
The indicator is perfect for searching history. With the push-button panel and the “<” and “>” buttons we can scroll through all the segments and check how our strategy would have worked or we can go in search of key levels.
We may use different time frames to find support and resistance levels.
In the history, based on how we place the mouse on the chart (aiming for the potential market entry point and based on the stop loss - if "show StopLoss line" to "true") we will be notified where the target level would have been placed.
Scrolling back the chart will also allow us to go and find price levels never reached and never touched. Leaving the default parameters we can find those that we could compare to POCs. Let me explain, POCs (point of control) are deduced from strong volumes; with VaviStar we do not use volumes but levels that, statistically, make the price react.
Graphic customization.
In addition to the colors, it will be possible to customize the position of all the elements.
