Ultimate Pullback Indicator

2019年9月30日

What is the Ultimate Pullback Indicator?

This indicator detects pullback trading opportunities by analyzing price action in a very specific manner.

By combining simple trend filters with various advanced candlestick patterns it detects high-probability trend-continuation setups (and optional exits).

If you use this script to set alerts then you will never miss a pullback trading opportunity ever again!

I personally use this indicator to profitably trade pullback signals in the forex markets on multiple timeframes, from the 15-Minute chart to the 4-Hour and Daily chart.

For more information visit my website: The Ultimate Pullback Indicator.

How Do I Access It?

I currently use this script to trade live money in the forex markets, but I’m also constantly testing and improving it. Therefore this is a constant work-in-progress and I’m always taking meticulous care to make it better.

That’s why this is a premium script that requires payment to access. The other advantage of charging for it is that it retains exclusivity to only a select few dedicated traders.

You can access the script by purchasing a monthly subscription on my website.

If you don’t want to pay for this script then I completely understand and I have plenty of other free scripts that you might be interested in!

Free Trial

I’m a trader myself and so I know how skeptical you might be that this indicator is worth your time and money.

That’s why I am offering a free 14 day trial of the indicator. All you need to do to initiate your trial is Join My Mailing List!

How It Works

When price is above the 50-EMA the script will wait for a pullback of at least two red candles. Once that condition is met, it begins searching for advanced entry patterns.

The opposite is true for short trades – price must be below the 50-EMA and must pull back by at least two green candles before it will begin searching for entry reasons.

Once it detects a valid entry reason it will draw a green arrow (for longs) or a red arrow (for shorts) as well as your stop loss and target price (the red and green lines).

But these settings can be customized however you like. You can change the EMA to any period you want, you can adjust your stop loss distance, you can enable or disable the entry and exit reasons as you wish, and you can adjust the rules for some of the patterns.

For a full list of features and visual examples visit the indicator page on my website: The Ultimate Pullback Indicator.

-
- Fixed "Exit Reasons + Target" Bug
- Added "DEMA" Option
- Added Fixed Pip SL Option

I've also added a new setting - R:R To Trigger Exit.

Basically it works like this (for example) - if you set your regular R:R Target to 2:1, you set your Break-Even target to 1.5:1, and you set your R:R To Trigger Exit to 1:1, the script will perform like this:

- If price hits your stop loss it will be stopped out as per usual
- If price hits 1:1 it will begin searching for your selected exit reason(s)
- If price hits 1.5:1 it will move the theoretical stop loss to break-even
- If price hits 2:1 it will exit your trade for a profit regardless of the exit reason(s)

If you set R:R To Exit Trade to 0 it will disable that setting (it's disabled by default), and the script will only begin searching for an exit reason when your standard R:R under the Stops & Targets section is hit.

- Removed slope filter as it wasn't working as intended
- Removed individual alert options from settings menu (they're now all listed under alert dialog)
- Added complete in-built AutoView automation functionality

To use AutoView alerts, make sure to set up the appropriate settings and then create an alert using "Any alert() function call". The script will then automate trade management based on however you've set up the script to behave.

For help with this, search "The Art Of Trading AutoView Guide" on YouTube. Enjoy :)

-
- Improved pullback detection accuracy slightly
- Changed the way the indicator handles trades which hit their take-profit & stop-loss on the same bar (the script will now assume these trades are losing trades - you will need to drop down to lower timeframes to verify whether or not the trade was a losing trade or a winning trade due to the fact that Pine Script cannot account for intrabar price action)

Added "Draw Signals on Real-Time Bars" setting. Turning this on will make the script draw entry signals regardless of whether the current bar has closed (ie. it will repaint).

リリースノート

- Forced cancellong and cancelshort alerts to trigger once-per-bar to hopefully fix an alert spam bug
- Added a new setting "Cancel Missed Orders" to the PineConnector Settings to enable/disable this behaviour: If a limit order is not filled by the broker due to spread, but the UPI treats the order as if it still played out as a valid trade, then cancel any leftover pending orders when a TP is hit to avoid leaving unwanted LOs in the market.
