Pops Dividend 7-Day Radar

How traders use it as a strategy anyway 🧠
In real life, this becomes a manual or semi-systematic strategy:
Strategy logic (human-driven):
Scan for highest yield stocks
Filter for ex-date within 7 days
Apply technical rules (trend, EMAs, support)
Enter before ex-date
Exit:
Before ex-date (momentum run-up)
On ex-date
Or after dividend (reversion play)
Indicator’s role:
“Tell me when a stock qualifies so I can decide how to trade it.”
That’s exactly what this tool does.
How we could turn this into a strategy-style framework
Even though Pine won’t let us backtest dividends properly, we can:
Build a rules-based checklist (entry/exit rules)
Create alerts that behave like strategy triggers
Combine with:
EMA trend filters
Volume conditions
ATR-based exits
Label it as:
“Pops Dividend Capture Playbook” (manual execution)
This keeps it honest, legal, and reliable.
Bottom line
🧩 Indicator = what we built
📘 Strategy = how you trade it using the indicator
⚠️ TradingView limitations prevent a true dividend strategy backtest
