Wide Range Bar (WRB) Strategy, Scan & Indicator for ThinkOrSwim

I recently watched Alphonso Esposito’s class at TradeSmart University regarding the Wide Range Bar strategy. It’s simple and straight forward, and seems to give good signals to boot, so I decided to make it even easier for my fellow ThinkOrSwim users to trade this strategy.

Relative Volume Indicator for ThinkOrSwim

For many of you subscribe to the classical trading philosophies of legendary traders like Jesse Livermore and Richard Wyckoff, there is probably no need for me to further emphasize the importance of volume here. Over the years I’ve read many, many trading books, and after reading many of these classical traders’ books, pamphlets, and articles, I realized my current toolset for analyzing volume was insufficient.

Z-Score Distance From VWAP

The Z-Distance from VWAP is an indicator I’ve become very interested in with my own trading. The basic concept is that it’s an oscillator denominated in standard deviations from the VWAP mean.

Low Float Stock Scan Lists for ThinkOrSwim

ThinkOrSwim doesn’t come with a low float stock scan built in. It doesn’t even have float shares as a quote column for traders to reference. The reason is a bit of a mystery, because a lot of other platforms provide the data, and a lot of TOS traders want to be able to trade low floats. Spike traders, spike faders, early morning gap traders, and many others, all need the ability to find low float runners. And it has always been next to impossible to quickly find these trade setups from within ThinkOrSwim, until now.

Pre-Market High Low Range Indicator & Breakout Scan for ThinkOrSwim

Anchored VWAP & Multiple Time Frame AVWAP Indicator for ThinkOrSwim

While Thinkorswim doesn’t allow point and click AVWAPs, this indicator will allow traders to input a date and time to anchor a VWAP to and plot accurate VWAPs from pivot highs and lows and important turning points on any time frame. You can add multiple copies to have as many Anchored VWAPs on your chart as you need.
