Percentage GridPercentage Grid Indicator
Description:
The Percentage Grid indicator is designed to assist traders in identifying significant support and resistance levels based on yearly percentage changes. This indicator plots horizontal lines on the chart from the start of the year, allowing you to customize how much percentage each line represents. Currently, you can set up to 5 horizontal lines, each representing a different percentage change from the beginning of the year.
For instance, when applied to the SBI Bank stock, you can customize the lines to display various percentage changes from the start of the year, such as 20%, 25%, and up to 35%, as the SBIN stock is currently trading around these levels. This visualization helps traders to easily identify key levels where price action tends to react, providing valuable insights for making trading decisions.
Principles of Trading Technical Analysis:
The Percentage Grid indicator is grounded in the principle of support and resistance levels, which are fundamental concepts in technical analysis. These levels are specific price points on a chart that tend to act as barriers, preventing the price from getting pushed in a certain direction. The indicator helps in:
Identifying Support Levels: Price levels where a downtrend can be expected to pause due to a concentration of buying interest.
Identifying Resistance Levels: Price levels where an uptrend can be expected to pause due to a concentration of selling interest.
By customizing and plotting percentage-based horizontal lines, the indicator highlights these critical levels based on the percentage change from the start of the year.
How to Use:
Add the Indicator to Your Chart:
Search for "Percentage Grid" in the TradingView indicator library and add it to your chart.
Customize Percentage Levels:
Access the indicator settings to customize the percentage change each line represents.
You can set up to 5 different percentage levels. For example, you can set lines at 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, and 40%.
Interpret the Grid Lines:
The plotted lines will represent the specified percentage changes from the start of the year.
Use these lines to identify potential support and resistance levels where price action is likely to react.
Practical Application:
Look for price bounces or reversals around these levels, which can indicate strong support or resistance.
Combine the Percentage Grid with other technical analysis tools, such as moving averages or trend lines, to confirm potential trading opportunities.
Example:
In the accompanying screenshot, the Percentage Grid is applied to the SBI Bank stock. The lines are set to display 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, and 40% changes from the start of the year. Notice how the price action respects these levels, providing clear areas where support and resistance are evident.
By incorporating the Percentage Grid into your trading strategy, you can enhance your ability to identify key price levels and make more informed trading decisions.
Happy Trading!
