Mark Helwig is promoting a new advisory service called Traffic Light Options which relies on the confluence of 3 indicators. I have attached pictures of what the conditions are, and pictures of the 3 indicators used. They are all 3 "proprietary indicators"- TOP Momentum, TOP Cycle, and TOP IDA. I was hoping someone could have a look at the indicators used and help me identify similar indicators to use. I ideally would like to design a Stockfetcher scan to identify the setups. Any help would be appreciated. They are not selling the indicator at this time, only an advisory service. They are actively marketing this on webinars so you might want to signup and watch one. Looks fairly impressive.

They use the signals in a stoplight fashion so an actual signal looks like this when all 3 allign

They only trade at the money calls and puts- the theory is the traffic light signal not only signals a directional move, but also an increase in momentum thus finding fast hard moves. Here are pictures of the actual step by step process-

Perhaps experiment with these 3 indicators with these requirements:
`Momentum
`RSI
`Stochastic

Needs: Entry, Exit (profit and loss), Position Size...

Fetcher[
optionable
low > 20
volume > 121321

draw Momentum(12) > 0
draw rsi(12) 1 day ago > 40
draw Stochastic %K(15,5,3) crossed above 30

draw Momentum(12) line 0
draw rsi(12) line 40
draw Stochastic %K(15,5,3) line 80

Four- thank you for getting this started. I think a bit more info will help get this going further. The first condition requires involves the indicator measuring momentum. They only consider continuing momentum, meaning momentum must continue to be positive, but to start heading higher again like in this picture
Code:
https://ibb.co/kzVcZ8
Condition 2 is based on an indicator that measures cycles. Not sure what indicator it is so looking for something similar. It needs to be turning higher like this picture.
Code:
https://ibb.co/c8aKE8
Condition 3 is an indicator that measures the relationship from close to open. Need help identifying a similar indicator. It needs to go from negative to less negative or better yet positive like this picture.
Code:
https://ibb.co/fvoBST
I think the way it will need to display is like a ribbon indicator similar to this indicator in the picture
Code:
http://forexblog.biz/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/Ribbon-Trader-Indicator.jpg

Probably the best display would be green in each condition ribbon when it is true and an additional ribbon that only displays when all conditions are true. The signal would be the first bar where all conditions are true. Shorts are just the opposite. Here is an example of one of there trades

Thanks in advance for any help on this project

Here is a differewnt take on the study.

Fetcher[
set{a, close - open}
set{b, close - high}
set{c, a + b}
set{d,close - low}
set{e, c + d}
set{pain, e / 2}

set{xx, high + low}
set{xx2, xx + close}
set{xx3, xx2 / 3}
set{vmult, atr(10) * 1.5}
set{vstopu1a, low 10 day low + vmult}
set{vstopu2a, xx3 + vmult}
set{vstop, min(vstopu1a 1 day ago,vstopu2a)}

add column pain
draw pain line at 0


set{a1, close - open}
set{b1, close - high 10 day high}
set{c1, a1 + b1}
set{d1,close - low 10 day low}
set{e1, c1 + d1}
set{pain1, e1 / 2}
draw pain1 line at 0

close > close 1 day ago
close > close 2 days ago
close > close 3 days ago
close > close 4 days ago

close 1 day ago < or = close 2 days ago
close 1 day ago < or = close 3 days ago
close 1 day ago < or = close 4 days ago
close 2 days ago < or = close 3 days ago
close 2 days ago < or = close 4 days ago
close 3 days ago < or = close 4 days ago

draw macd(5,8,3)
draw rsi(5)

set{aa, count(macd(5,8,3) fast line above 0,1) * count(rsi(5) above 60,1)}
set{green_light, count(pain1 above 0,1) * aa}

draw green_light
add column green_light
volume above 1000000
draw vstop on plot price

Thank you SAFeTRADE for adding your input. Can anybody else take a shot at the original concept of the traffic pattern indicator. Thanks for any and all input.

Thank you for your contributions johnpaulca. Once we figure out the cycle indicator component, we will need some help constructing the actual scan. Many thanks so far.

They have another webinar coming up on 7/25/18 at 8PM EST. Here is the signup page if anyone is interested in seeing how this indicator works and it's trading potential-
