3 Fib EMAs To Scalp Them AllThe "3 Fib EMAs To Scalp Them All" was made in order to clear up when we should look for shorts, longs, or walk away. Also it can alert you when a trend starts, or when there is a possible reversal. I use it for scalping/day trading in 5m-1h timeframes.
1. EMAs: By default, the indicator uses Fibonacci numbers (21, 55, 233), but you can change them.
2. Color Changes: The color of the Micro EMA line changes depending on its relation to the Mid and Macro EMAs.
When Micro EMA < Mid < Macro EMA, it turns red, indicating a potential bearish trend - that's when you should look for shorts
When Micro EMA > Mid > Macro EMA, it turns green, indicating a potential bullish trend - that's when you should look for longs
A white Micro EMA is when you need to take some rest, enjoy your coffee, and avoid overtrading.
3. Signals: The indicator provides visual signals in the form of diamonds and crosses and corresponding alert signals.
A red diamond above the bar signals a potential beginning of a downtrend
A red cross above the bar signals the end of the downtrend and can be used as a signal for a possible reversal up/breakout.
A green diamond below the bar signals a potential beginning of a downtrend,
A green cross below the bar signals the end of the uptrend and can be used as a signal for a possible reversal down/breakout.
4. Alerts: For algo traders and people who prefer to stay away from the monitor... there are alerts for every signal.
Friendly note: Don't blindly follow the signals for your long and short entries. The signals only pop up when the EMA cross value gets a confirmation. A smart move would be to wait for a retracement to the EMA line and use momentum indicators like market cipher B to pinpoint those ideal entry points.
Scalping
LNL Scalper ArrowsLNL Scalper Arrows
The indicator consist of various different types of candlestick patterns that are truly time tested by multiple veteran traders. These arrows are a combination of short-term scalping strategies taught by Linda Raschke & a trader that goes by name Quant Trade Edge. These strategies/patterns occur regularly within the markets. They offer high probability quick moves during the trending days. These four patterns are based on pure price action, no oscillators, no trend, no momentum indicators involved. Trend (ema) is there just as a simple trend gauge.
LNL Scalper Arrows were designed specifically for intra-day trading. Mostly useful for the futures but also stocks as well. These arrows can work anywhere between the fast-moving 512 or 1600 tick charts to a 1min, 2min and up to 5min or 10min charts.
Trend Gauge (Exponential Moving Average)
Nothing fancy just a classic EMA that can guide the direction of the short-term trend. I have added a custom coloring of the EMA that is based on a simple RSI filter. That should help to visualize the non-directional moments within the trend. Although the length is adjustable, for scalping it is better to focus on smaller periods such as 9, 13 or 20 or 34 but anything above 50 loses its purpose as a short-term trend gauge. Again, this is a scalping tool not a trend tool, you are not going to get rid of the fakeouts by increasing the period of the trend.
Tail Arrows (Eat the Tail Pattern)
Tail is a candlestick that is either a price rejection spike, or a flag continuation pattern on a lower time frame. A failed action. It is basically a candle with much bigger wick (shadow) of the candle than the actual body. Such candles are usually telling us about strong participation from the other side of the market. Eat the tail pattern occurs whenever the low of the Tail candle is immediately broken on a following candle "the tail is eaten alive". Such a breaks occurs in a most aggressive types of markets with a strong momentum. DO NOT try to trade this in a low volume or a ranging market. Tail Arrows are the most aggressive arrows & should be only used on the highest volume or a parabolic momentum markets.
Scalp Arrows (Scallop Pattern)
Known as Scallops or minor lows or highs, these patterns are the most common within the all scalper arrows. They occur regularly on 1min & 5min charts - basically everyday. Scallops provide the best possible risk to reward entry within the trend without the need of any indicators or oscillators. The Scallop Up 3 bar pattern consist of a high that is lower that the previous high but also low that is lower than the previous low. Scallop Up or a minor low triggers when the last high is broken, creating a three bar mountain or a peak within the 5 bar span.
Hoagie Arrows (Hoagie Pattern)
Hoagies occur way less often than any other scalping patterns. Hoagies represent two (or more) inside candles within the shadow of a first candle. Such a formation is creating a small compression or a range that sooner or later breaks out. The hoagie is triggered whenever the high or low of the shadow (first) candle is broken. The great thing about the hoagies is that they can work either way despite the trend direction. Although this indicator is coded for the 2 bar hoagies, there are no limitations on how much inside bars can hoagie include.
Umbrella Arrows (Umbrella Pattern)
Another really awesome 3 bar pattern that is really fun to trade. Umbrella occurs when the candle before the previous candle is a pin bar or a tail bar and the body of the previous candle is within the shadow or a wick of the candle before. The umbrella is triggered once the high or low of the previous bar is broken. Umbrellas are more frequent than Hoagies but occur much less than the Scallops.
Outside Bar Wedges (Outside Bar Pattern)
Pretty much self-explanatory candlestick pattern. Outside Bar is basically any bar that peaks outside of the both ends of the previous candle. So the range of the candle is higher & it looked beyond the high and beyond the low of the previous candle. These candles are signalizing the potenial momentum change. Ouside Bars usually occur at the tops or bottoms of the moves. I decided to add them because they can serve as a great addition to these scalping patterns.
Signal vs. SignalBreak Mode
The trigger can be viewed in two different ways:
1. Signal: Plots the trigger before the trigger bar, basically right when the pattern is formed but NOT YET triggered. The signal is triggered once the next candle break the high or low of the current candle.
2. SignalBrake: Plots the trigger after the break of the high or low of the actual pattern. It is basically a candle after the signal candle. (Signal is better for trading because it gives you time to prepare for the actual break of the high or low = the actual signal. SignalBrake is great for looking back in history only for the patterns that actually traded).
Pin Bar BTW Ratio
Pin Bar (Body-To-Wick) Ratio represents the size of the body of a pin bar candle for Eat the Tail and Umbrella patterns. Pin Bar BTW Ratio measures the ratio between the wick & the body of the candle. Ref. interval is 2.0 - 5.0 (ideal pin bar is 2.0 - 3.0 = the wick or a shadow is 2x - 3x bigger than the body of the candle)
ATR Stop & Target Labels
I also created three simple labels (tables) that can show you the ideal target & stop as well as the current ATR. Since LNL Scalper Arrows consist of high probability scalping patterns, a good rule of thumb to follow is to use a half of the current ATR as a target and a current ATR as a stop (or two times the target). So if the current 7 period ATR is 30 the target would be 15 pts. and a stop around 30 pts. With such a risk management you should aim for a win rate 70% or higher. Obviously you can adjust the risk management in the settings to your personal preference.
Low Range vs. High Range Markets
There are two major downsides with the Scalper Arrows:
1. You need volume and a volatility. These patterns really do struggle in ranging "boring" sideways action. It is absolutely crucial to recognize the current market environment and really stay cautions and (or completely out) in case the chop continues. Adding something like DMI can help you recognize the potential flat markets.
2. Not only do you need volume & momentum, you also need a decent range. This indicator works better on a rangy market such as NQ futures or YM. But are much tougher to trade on lower range markets such as some stocks or ZB futures or basically any other lower range market.
Hope it helps.

NSDT Fair Value GapThis script is our version of the "Fair Value Gap".
A Fair Value Gap is nothing more than a series of 3 candles with a gap between a candle high/low and a candle high/low two candles prior.
For example:
A Gap Up - the Low of a candle is higher than the High of two candles back.
A Gap Down - the High of a candle is lower than the Low of two candles back.
Typically, on a Gap Up, the trader would wait for the price to re-enter the Gap, and take a Long position.
Typically, on a Gap Down, the trader would wait for the price to re-enter the Gap, and take a Short position.
We found that simply trading through the Gaps (fill the gap) produced a better result. So we reversed the procedure and the colors to show our suggested direction.
We have added inputs so the trader can determine the size of the Gaps to be plotted on the chart. A minimum and maximum can be set.
The number of Gaps to be displayed can be adjusted.
There is a option to remove Gaps that had been filled, to help keep a clean chart.
Moving Average Scalper by nnamdertWhat does this Indicator Do?
By request and popular demand, I have created a quick and easy Moving Average Crossover Scalper Indicator. This indicator simply allows the trader to visualize scalping opportunities in an easy way using MA crossovers.
The Indicator also plots multiple higher moving averages via an "optional" table. The table gives a quick glance at the overall trend (based on moving Averages alone).
Users can adjust the initial Moving Average Length and the number of additional Moving Average Lengths to be plotted on the chart.
How do I use it?
As shown below, the cross overs are very easy to see. The Stoploss "should" be set at the most recent swing high or low prior to the MA Cross.
The dotted yellow line must cross above or below the thick mutli-colored line in order to be considered valid.
As seen in the screenshot below, an optional input setting turns ON / OFF additional Moving Average "Lines" and plots them on the chart. In addition, the indicator color fills between the moving averages based on Bullish or Bearish movement. If the lines are in continuity, then the color will be either RED or GREEN depending on the market sentiment (bull or bear).
The total number of Moving Averages listed in the table can be manually adjusted in the settings by the user. The table is small and see-through so it works on mobile devices as well and allows the user to still see the candles easily. Simply double clicking on the table will bring up the settings.
As shown below, the table can be relocated to a position acceptable to the user if it is in the way. This option is available under input settings.
I hope this indicator proves useful for you and your trading style. If you have any suggestions please let me know.
Short Only Anytime ScalperThis indicator works best in a 2-minute timeframe.
I designed this indicator to work with my proprietary scalping strategy where I use candlestick anatomy, price action, and moving averages to determine potential short entries.
Rules I use for using this indicator:
- I turn the 20MA green
- I turn the 200MA red
- I only take a short entry on the FIRST yellow or red candle painted once the 20MA comes back down crossing the 200MA once the candle fully closes red or yellow from the indicator
- The gap between the 20MA and the 200MA MUST be close (the closer the gap is the stronger the short entry can be). Note: It can be considered a false signal if the bar is colored yellow or red when the gap is far within the 20MA and the 200MA.
- My stop loss is the red line right on the top of the True Bear Bar (red) or Partial True bear bar (yellow)
- My take profit is always at 0.04% (green dots) and then I watch price action, when price action moves under my 0.04% I quickly move to stop loss to that level locking in profit while allowing profit to ride. (This indicator is meant to use in quick price action and I am usually in and out of a trade in 5 minutes or even sooner)
How to read the indicator
- Yellow painted bar at candle close: Partial True Bear Bar
- Red painted bar at candle close: True Bear Bar
- Red line painted on top of candle: Stop loss
- Green dot with green label and price: Goal profit area no matter what
You will notice that sometimes depending on the size of the bear bar, the R:R is very off compared to traditional trading, this is because this is a very quick scalping strategy that either locks in 0.04% no leverage gain or quickly puts stop loss at that level to then let profits ride.
GKD-C Trend Scalp [Loxx]Giga Kaleidoscope GKD-C Trend Scalp is a Confirmation module included in Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System".
█ Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System
What is Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System"?
The Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System is a trading system built on the philosophy of the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) algorithmic trading.
What is the NNFX algorithmic trading strategy?
The NNFX (No-Nonsense Forex) trading system is a comprehensive approach to Forex trading that is designed to simplify the process and remove the confusion and complexity that often surrounds trading. The system was developed by a Forex trader who goes by the pseudonym "VP" and has gained a significant following in the Forex community.
The NNFX trading system is based on a set of rules and guidelines that help traders make objective and informed decisions. These rules cover all aspects of trading, including market analysis, trade entry, stop loss placement, and trade management.
Here are the main components of the NNFX trading system:
1. Trading Philosophy: The NNFX trading system is based on the idea that successful trading requires a comprehensive understanding of the market, objective analysis, and strict risk management. The system aims to remove subjective elements from trading and focuses on objective rules and guidelines.
2. Technical Analysis: The NNFX trading system relies heavily on technical analysis and uses a range of indicators to identify high-probability trading opportunities. The system uses a combination of trend-following and mean-reverting strategies to identify trades.
3. Market Structure: The NNFX trading system emphasizes the importance of understanding the market structure, including price action, support and resistance levels, and market cycles. The system uses a range of tools to identify the market structure, including trend lines, channels, and moving averages.
4. Trade Entry: The NNFX trading system has strict rules for trade entry. The system uses a combination of technical indicators to identify high-probability trades, and traders must meet specific criteria to enter a trade.
5. Stop Loss Placement: The NNFX trading system places a significant emphasis on risk management and requires traders to place a stop loss order on every trade. The system uses a combination of technical analysis and market structure to determine the appropriate stop loss level.
6. Trade Management: The NNFX trading system has specific rules for managing open trades. The system aims to minimize risk and maximize profit by using a combination of trailing stops, take profit levels, and position sizing.
Overall, the NNFX trading system is designed to be a straightforward and easy-to-follow approach to Forex trading that can be applied by traders of all skill levels.
Core components of an NNFX algorithmic trading strategy
The NNFX algorithm is built on the principles of trend, momentum, and volatility. There are six core components in the NNFX trading algorithm:
1. Volatility - price volatility; e.g., Average True Range, True Range Double, Close-to-Close, etc.
2. Baseline - a moving average to identify price trend
3. Confirmation 1 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
4. Confirmation 2 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
5. Continuation - a technical indicator used to identify trends
6. Volatility/Volume - a technical indicator used to identify volatility/volume breakouts/breakdown
7. Exit - a technical indicator used to determine when a trend is exhausted
What is Volatility in the NNFX trading system?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, ATR (Average True Range) is typically used to measure the volatility of an asset. It is used as a part of the system to help determine the appropriate stop loss and take profit levels for a trade. ATR is calculated by taking the average of the true range values over a specified period.
True range is calculated as the maximum of the following values:
-Current high minus the current low
-Absolute value of the current high minus the previous close
-Absolute value of the current low minus the previous close
ATR is a dynamic indicator that changes with changes in volatility. As volatility increases, the value of ATR increases, and as volatility decreases, the value of ATR decreases. By using ATR in NNFX system, traders can adjust their stop loss and take profit levels according to the volatility of the asset being traded. This helps to ensure that the trade is given enough room to move, while also minimizing potential losses.
Other types of volatility include True Range Double (TRD), Close-to-Close, and Garman-Klass
What is a Baseline indicator?
The baseline is essentially a moving average, and is used to determine the overall direction of the market.
The baseline in the NNFX system is used to filter out trades that are not in line with the long-term trend of the market. The baseline is plotted on the chart along with other indicators, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR).
Trades are only taken when the price is in the same direction as the baseline. For example, if the baseline is sloping upwards, only long trades are taken, and if the baseline is sloping downwards, only short trades are taken. This approach helps to ensure that trades are in line with the overall trend of the market, and reduces the risk of entering trades that are likely to fail.
By using a baseline in the NNFX system, traders can have a clear reference point for determining the overall trend of the market, and can make more informed trading decisions. The baseline helps to filter out noise and false signals, and ensures that trades are taken in the direction of the long-term trend.
What is a Confirmation indicator?
Confirmation indicators are technical indicators that are used to confirm the signals generated by primary indicators. Primary indicators are the core indicators used in the NNFX system, such as the Average True Range (ATR), the Moving Average (MA), and the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
The purpose of the confirmation indicators is to reduce false signals and improve the accuracy of the trading system. They are designed to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators by providing additional information about the strength and direction of the trend.
Some examples of confirmation indicators that may be used in the NNFX system include the Bollinger Bands, the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence), and the MACD Oscillator. These indicators can provide information about the volatility, momentum, and trend strength of the market, and can be used to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators.
In the NNFX system, confirmation indicators are used in combination with primary indicators and other filters to create a trading system that is robust and reliable. By using multiple indicators to confirm trading signals, the system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of the trades.
What is a Continuation indicator?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, a continuation indicator is a technical indicator that is used to confirm a current trend and predict that the trend is likely to continue in the same direction. A continuation indicator is typically used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as a baseline indicator, to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
What is a Volatility/Volume indicator?
Volume indicators, such as the On Balance Volume (OBV), the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), or the Volume Price Trend (VPT), are used to measure the amount of buying and selling activity in a market. They are based on the trading volume of the market, and can provide information about the strength of the trend. In the NNFX system, volume indicators are used to confirm trading signals generated by the Moving Average and the Relative Strength Index. Volatility indicators include Average Direction Index, Waddah Attar, and Volatility Ratio. In the NNFX trading system, volatility is a proxy for volume and vice versa.
By using volume indicators as confirmation tools, the NNFX trading system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of trades. These indicators can provide additional information about the market that is not captured by the primary indicators, and can help traders to make more informed trading decisions. In addition, volume indicators can be used to identify potential changes in market trends and to confirm the strength of price movements.
What is an Exit indicator?
The exit indicator is used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR), to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
The exit indicator in the NNFX system can be any technical indicator that is deemed effective at identifying optimal exit points. Examples of exit indicators that are commonly used include the Parabolic SAR, the Average Directional Index (ADX), and the Chandelier Exit.
The purpose of the exit indicator is to identify when a trend is likely to reverse or when the market conditions have changed, signaling the need to exit a trade. By using an exit indicator, traders can manage their risk and prevent significant losses.
In the NNFX system, the exit indicator is used in conjunction with a stop loss and a take profit order to maximize profits and minimize losses. The stop loss order is used to limit the amount of loss that can be incurred if the trade goes against the trader, while the take profit order is used to lock in profits when the trade is moving in the trader's favor.
Overall, the use of an exit indicator in the NNFX trading system is an important component of a comprehensive trading strategy. It allows traders to manage their risk effectively and improve the profitability of their trades by exiting at the right time.
How does Loxx's GKD (Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System) implement the NNFX algorithm outlined above?
Loxx's GKD v1.0 system has five types of modules (indicators/strategies). These modules are:
1. GKD-BT - Backtesting module (Volatility, Number 1 in the NNFX algorithm)
2. GKD-B - Baseline module (Baseline and Volatility/Volume, Numbers 1 and 2 in the NNFX algorithm)
3. GKD-C - Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation module (Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation, Numbers 3, 4, and 5 in the NNFX algorithm)
4. GKD-V - Volatility/Volume module (Confirmation 1/2, Number 6 in the NNFX algorithm)
5. GKD-E - Exit module (Exit, Number 7 in the NNFX algorithm)
(additional module types will added in future releases)
Each module interacts with every module by passing data between modules. Data is passed between each module as described below:
GKD-B => GKD-V => GKD-C(1) => GKD-C(2) => GKD-C(Continuation) => GKD-E => GKD-BT
That is, the Baseline indicator passes its data to Volatility/Volume. The Volatility/Volume indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 1 indicator. The Confirmation 1 indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 2 indicator. The Confirmation 2 indicator passes its values to the Continuation indicator. The Continuation indicator passes its values to the Exit indicator, and finally, the Exit indicator passes its values to the Backtest strategy.
This chaining of indicators requires that each module conform to Loxx's GKD protocol, therefore allowing for the testing of every possible combination of technical indicators that make up the six components of the NNFX algorithm.
What does the application of the GKD trading system look like?
Example trading system:
Backtest: Strategy with 1-3 take profits, trailing stop loss, multiple types of PnL volatility, and 2 backtesting styles
Baseline: Hull Moving Average
Volatility/Volume: Hurst Exponent
Confirmation 1: Trend Scalp as shown on the chart above
Confirmation 2: Williams Percent Range
Continuation: Fisher Transform
Exit: Rex Oscillator
Each GKD indicator is denoted with a module identifier of either: GKD-BT, GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-V, or GKD-E. This allows traders to understand to which module each indicator belongs and where each indicator fits into the GKD protocol chain.

█ GKD-C Trend Scalp
What is T3?
The T3 Moving Average (T3MA) is a technical analysis indicator that was developed by Tim Tillson. It is a trend-following indicator that aims to provide a smoother and more accurate representation of price trends than other moving average indicators.
The T3MA is a type of exponential moving average ( EMA ) that is calculated using a series of complex formulas. Unlike a simple or exponential moving average , which use fixed smoothing factors, the T3MA uses a variable smoothing factor that is based on the volatility of the underlying asset. This means that the T3MA is able to adapt to changing market conditions and provide more accurate signals.
The formula for calculating the T3MA is as follows:
T3 = a * EMA1 + (1 - a) * T3
Where:
-T3 is the current value of the T3MA
-EMA1 is the current value of the first EMA
-T3 is the previous value of the T3MA
-a is the smoothing factor, which is based on the volatility of the underlying asset and is calculated using the following formulas:
-c1 = -1 + exp (-sqrt(2) * pi / period)
-c2 = 2 * c1 * c1 + 2 * c1
-c3 = 1 - c1 - c2
-a = c1 * sqrt(period) * (close - T3) + c2 * T3 + c3 * EMA1
In simple terms, the T3MA is calculated by taking a weighted average of two different EMAs, with the weight given to each EMA depending on the volatility of the asset being analyzed. The T3MA is then smoothed using a second smoothing factor, which further reduces noise and improves the accuracy of the indicator.
The T3MA can be used in a variety of ways by traders and analysts. Some common applications include using the T3MA as a trend-following indicator, with buy signals generated when the price of an asset crosses above the T3MA and sell signals generated when the price crosses below. The T3MA can also be used in combination with other indicators and analytical techniques to confirm trading decisions and identify potential trend reversals.
Overall, the T3 Moving Average is a highly sophisticated and complex technical indicator that is designed to provide a more accurate and reliable representation of price trends. While it may be difficult for novice traders to understand and use effectively, experienced traders and analysts may find the T3MA to be a valuable tool in their trading toolbox.
What is Trend Scalp?
Trend Scalp calculates the difference between bull and bear power and then smooths this calculation using the T3 filter. This indicator is good for lower timeframe scalping. For use in regular trading, decrease the levels value, for scalps, keep the levels value high.

WillyCycle Oscillator&DoubleMa/ErkOzi/version 2This oscillator can be customized by adjusting the length of the Willy period, the length of Willy's EMA, and the upper and lower bands. The upper and lower bands help traders identify overbought and oversold conditions.
The WillyCycle Oscillator is a technical analysis tool used to measure the momentum of an asset and identify overbought and oversold conditions based on the price range of a specific period and calculating the percentage of the closing price in that range. The WillyCycle Oscillator consists of two main components: Willy and Willy's EMA. The Willy component is the percentage calculation of the asset's price range, and Willy's EMA is the exponential moving average of the Willy component. Willy's EMA is used to smooth out the Willy component and make it easier to identify trends.
*** When the oscillator is above the 80 level, it indicates that the asset is overbought, and when it is below the 20 level, it indicates that the asset is oversold. Traders can use these levels as a guide for buying and selling signals.
***Traders can also use the WillyCycle Oscillator to identify trend reversals. When the oscillator rises above the 50 level, it signals a potential uptrend, and when it falls below the 50 level, it signals a potential downtrend.
***I have added a smoothed line option to the WillyCycle Oscillator, which allows traders to see a more smoothed version of the oscillator. This option can be enabled by setting the 'smoothed' input to true. The default value for the smoothed line is 15.
***We have also changed the value range of the WillyCycle Oscillator from -100 to 100 to 0 to 100. This change was made to make the oscillator more user-friendly and easier to read.
In conclusion, the WillyCycle Oscillator is a versatile tool that can help traders identify potential trading opportunities and trend reversals. Traders can customize the oscillator to fit their trading style and preferences. Adding a smoothed line and changing the value range can enhance the user experience and make the oscillator easier to use.
TENKAN SCALPER STRATEGYTENKAN SCALP is a fully automatic trading system.
It is a continuation of our previous ichimoku release. This time however we throw out the rule book and use ICHIMOKU in a very different way.
It applies non traditional money management tactics.
While most trading strategies rely on a stop loss and a take profit target to manage risk. This strategy uses either no stop loss at all or a time based stop loss.
You might ask yourself the question why would you keep a trade open if it goes against you? Here are a phew reasons why the script does what it does.
Forex Markets consolidate most of the time. If you wait long enough your Take Profit will get hit anyways most of the time
You don't have to risk everything per trade. I keep my orders small so to keep some powder to get into some more trades
All the extra trades you take while one trade is in drawdown limit the drawdown as they provide cashflow
On lower timeframes the markets are so chaotic that a stop loss is very likely to get hit by a wick
About backtest below
This backtest uses a spread of 2 pips for entries and a default position size of 100% of equity. This is only possible on exchanges where spread is low and you have 10:1 leverage or more. It does not represent results obtainable without leverage. Do take into account that there are a lot of forex exchanges that provide this leverage, however a 2 pip spread is not always guaranteed and only applies to major pairs.
This backtest does not use the TIME BASED STOPS functionality.
Always start with small position sizing and see how the strategy performs before adding risk.
Explanation of variables:
Chikou(lagging span): pink line, this is price plotted 26 bars ago. People ignore the power of this it is crucial to see how chikou behaves towards past price action as seen in the chart below where we got an entry at red arrow because chikou bounced from past fractal bottom.
Kijun-Sen(base line): Black line or color coded line. This is the equilibrium of last 26 candles. To me this is the most important line in the system as it attracts price.
Kijun = (Highest high of 26 periods + Lowest low of 26 periods) ÷ 2
Tenkan-Sen(conversion line): Blue line. This is the equilibrium of last 9 candles. In a strong uptrend price stays above this line.
Tenkan = (Highest high of 9 periods + Lowest low of 9 periods) ÷ 2
Senkou A (Leading span A)= Pink cloud line, this is the average of the 2 components projected 26 bars in the future.
Senkou A = (Tenkan + Kijun) ÷ 2
Senkou B (Leading span B) = Green cloud line, this is the 52 day equilibrium projected 26 bars in the future.
Senkou B = (Highest high of prior 52 periods + Lowest low of prior 52 periods) ÷ 2
projection: Script uses same function for variable calculation and substracts a number on each next bar as to make a projection of where the variable will be in future bars if price stayed the same. This works as ICHIMOKU calculations use the middle point of a past set of data. The shorter that amount of bars will be in line with the data that it will be restricted to in future if price stayed the same.
Detection of Market Environment
To enter trades the script uses a lot of ICHIMOKU concepts. Contrary to how most people trade ICHIMOKU this script takes an environment that ICHIMOKU identifies as trending upwards and shorts in that environment. The same will be applied to a downtrend where it will open LONGS.
List of CRITERIA for a trend:
Grapling Hook: this is a component based on the chikou span (closing price displaced 26 bars into the past). The script will use an ATR based range to define a possible future projection to the CHIKOU line. For a market to be bullish there should be no price action happening within this area. Market is free to move upwards. Vice versa for bearish .
Kumo Cloud: script will check if price is above the cloud for bullish trend and below cloud for bearish trend .
Chikou above Kijun: script will check if the chikou line is above the KIJUN line of 26 bars ago. This is further confirmation that price is trending high enough compared to it's past data. Vice versa for downtrend.
Kijun projection: script will check if past Kijun is lower than future projected Kijun. This to ensure we get an equilibrium in our favour in the future. Vice versa for downtrend
Tenkan projection: script will check if future Tenkan-sen will be higher than Kijun-sen for an uptrend. Vice versa for downtrend.
Cloud projection: script will check if in 9 bars the Senkou Span A will be higher than Senkou Span B for an uptrend. Vice versa for downtrend.
Example:
This script does not visualise the prediction lines like I show in the example. I show them here to clarify how the script works.
Usage
Backtests are not indicative of future results, although a trader may want to use a strategy script to have a deeper understanding of how their strategy responds to varying market conditions, or as a tool for identifying possible flaws for a strategy that may be indicative of good or bad performance in the future.
Strategy Settings:
Minimum Body Size (atr): this is the minimum ATR a signal bar needs to be for entry. This is useful because our TP is based on previous bar.
Lot size per trade: this setting does not impact backtest. It is used to for the signals to let tradingconnect.com know your position size.
Direction: do you want to trade longs or shorts. I personally use both a long bot and a short bot at the same time.
Positions Allowed: the amount of positions the script will keep open as a maximum. You do not want to open too many positions, this is for risk management.
Close all positions at drawdown: if total open positions loss gets to this % target it will close all positions.
MetaTrader Prefix: when the script sends a signal it will put this text right before the symbol name from syminfo.ticker
MetaTrader Suffix: when the script sends a signal it will put this text right after the symbol name from syminfo.ticker
Charts below are some examples on how the script handles orders on default settings:
without time based SL
with time based SL
how it handles pyramiding
www.tradingview.com
Tradingconnector.com:
For full automation of the forex market the script uses this connector to execute trade on MT4. The alerts the script sends using the alerts() function call are structured in a way tradingconnector will recognise and send directly to MT4. You can find documentation about this tool on their own website.
Personal recommendation is to start with a minimum lot size and track performance, if you are comfortable scale the size up. You can do that by increasing the lot size setting in the script and making a new alert. Make sure to delete the old one.

Scalp Zones [SI]The Scalp Zones indicator provides traders with visual ranges or "zones" on their charts, which can be used to quickly identify potential entry points for their trades in real time. Once price action enters the designated zone, trade signals and alerts will be generated, making it easier for both scalpers and swing traders to identify promising trading opportunities with greater confidence.
Although Scalp Zones is relatively easy to use, its simplicity is the end result of some interesting and rather complex analysis of price action and market structure.
█ CONCEPTS
Price Action vs Market Structure
For our purposes, “price action” refers to the movement of a security's price over time, whereas “market structure”, which is built upon price action, includes trends and support/resistance levels, breakouts, reversals of trend, etc. All of which can help traders identify potential entry and exit points for their trades.
Scalp Zone
A “Scalp Zone” is an area just above resistance or just below support that is deemed to be part of a trend that is exhausted or part of a “whipsaw” in the price action.
█ FEATURES
Can be combined with other indicators
Scalp Zones displays color-coded rectangles or "zones" that indicate areas of potential volatility, trend reversals and consolidation in price action. These zones can be used in conjunction with other indicators to more effectively identify trade opportunities.
Can also serve as an exit signal
Since Scalp Zones identifies areas where market participants are likely to enter or exit positions, they can offer some traders a way to spot good exits for their trades. For instance, if the price fails to surpass a significant resistance level (identified by a “scalp Zone”) and begins to decline, this may serve as a sell signal for traders who intend to lock in profits on a potential trend reversal.
Automatically adjusts to market conditions
Scalp Zones uses Average True Range (ATR) to dynamically adjust the size of the color-coded zones based on the current market conditions. By factoring in the ATR, the tool can produce zones that reflect the volatility of the market and adjust to changing levels of price movement.
█ LIMITATIONS
The Scalp Zones indicator is designed to provide traders with signals for potential entry points in the market, but it should not be used as the sole basis for making trading decisions. As with any trading indicator, it is important to acknowledge and understand that past performance does not guarantee future outcomes and that several other variables contribute to achieving success as a trader, especially proper risk management.
Drip's 11am rule breakout/breakdown (OG)This indicator is based on Drippy2hard's 11:30 am (EST) rule.
In simple terms the rule states that:
If a trending stock makes a new high after 11:15-11:30am EST, there is a 75% chance of closing within 1% of High of day (HOD). Same applies for downtrend.
Please note:
Not all stocks will abide by this, this is backtested on stocks with avg daily volume > 2M and mostly mega cap stocks which have liquid option chains. The backtesting results show very promising results on $SPY/ $SPX so it is advised to trade $SPY/ $SPX using this indicator over any other stocks.
Although the name suggests 11 AM rule, the backtesting shows higher win rate for 11:30 AM so please select that option in the settings.
As always, no indicator is perfect and please follow your risk management and understand that indicators are tools to aid your trading and by no means they are supposed to work as intended in all scenarios
How the script works
1. A HOD/LOD zone is identified based on regular session (9:30am-11:30am) EST. Users can select cut off time to 11AM in the settings. These will be indicated on chart after 11/11:30pm depending on what user selected
2. If the stock breaks above the HOD and the ADX is showing strong momentum to upside then the candlesticks will start showing neon color, if the trend based on moving averages and candle closing is also bullish then the indicator will show trend arrows under the candle indicating to stay in the trade. Same applies for break below LOD, only the colors will change to represent downtrend.
3. An optional cloud is also shown if the trend is developed. The cloud can be used as trail stop or re entry point as long as it is displayed on chart
How to use the indicator in trading
In general, there are three scenarios which are trade worthy
1. If the stocks breaks out above the HOD zone and up trend develops or the stocks breaks below the LOD zone and downtrend develops. See images below
2. You can also use the LOD/HOD zone as demand/ supply if the Price action is range bound like this example below
Thanks for reading, please give thumbs up if you like using it! Please post comments on how to use it.
Jerry J8 30-123 Spy Dashboard ProPlease watch the J8 Scalping Tutorial Video below for a walkthrough on how these indicators work.
This script is used in conjunction with Jerry J8 30-123 SPY Scalping PRO” Indicator(which creates the buy and sell orders as a strategy). The Dashboard shows the 4 main criteria statuses from the strategy. I find the dashboard makes scalping the SPY much easier.
This study project is designed for scalping options that expire daily with bull put and bear call credit spreads on a 3 minute chart. The name 30_123 is a reference to 4 main criteria being met to give a green light for a potential trade. The criteria:
* 30 = 30 minute trend
* 1 = 3 minute trend
* 2 = Moving average criteria
* 3 = RSI criteria
4 = Secondary trend. Bonus if in sync but not a requirement.
* The strategy also utilizes momentum as a criteria but this is not shown on the dashboard.
This indicator is designed to trade options that expire daily including the SPY, IWM, QQQ, and NDX. However, it can be used with multiple symbols on a 3 minute chart.
When the 30_123 conditions are all green with all criteria are met a bull signal is created.
When the 30_123 conditions are all red with all criteria are met a bear signal is created.
This study is the dashboard that is designed to show how the main J8 strategy indicator is working and it shows which criteria have been met. Additionally there are multiple user INPUTS that you can adjust for the 4 main criteria plus inputs to help you with your credit spread criteria.
For example, if the SPY is at 400 we could have an order to sell a BULL PUT CREDIT SPREAD and I would likely sell the 398p and buy the 397p; The 398p delta would be approximately -.2. The spread position profits with any close over 398 and/or can be closed early with a bullish price move. IMPORTANT: If the SPY closed the day at $399 on the chart it would look like a loss based on the buy and sell orders but the spread would be a full profit since the close was above 398.
---- IRON CONDOR
For the SPY ticker only an iron condor label is generated when the SPY is trading sideways and meets specified criteria. When the criteria is met the Iron Condor label appears and it provides a recommendation for what option to buy and sell. The iron condor recommendations can be adjusted with user inputs.
This Indicator dashboard shows the criteria labels and colors the criteria as green if bullish and red if bearish. When the criteria are not met the dashboard shows “NO CLEAR SIGNAL”. There is also a label that shows whether you are looking for bullish or bearish positions based on the 30 minute trend.
The chart shown on the indicator is the RSI and for this indicator an RSI over 50 is bullish and under 50 is bearish. The line color shows the RSI trend. RSI OB (overbought) and OS (oversold) areas are shaded. The RSI can remain in an OB or OS state for a prolonged period and while some people use OB and OS as a reversal signal I use it as a strong trend indication and recognize it will not last forever. You can SET the OB and OS levels with inputs.
---- USER INPUTS
Paint Bars: Turns on/off the candle coloring. Default is OFF.
Iron Condor Settings: Defaults are what I use and can be used as a guide.
Criteria: Trend, moving averages, and RSI settings can all be adjusted.
---- SETUP & HINTS
Add "Jerry J8 30-123 SPY Scalping PRO” indicator to show bull and bear signals
Add "Jerry J8 MACD Optimal Entry Zone” indicator to show best MACD range for entry
I also like to add "Jerry Momentum Dream" indicator to see the momentum
With this indicator we’re looking for the 30, 1, 2, and 3 criteria to be met which increases our likelihood of success. IMPORTANT. Never automatically enter a position without reviewing the other indicators and drawing your own conclusions. You want to choose the entries that are the most appealing to you that take into account volume, time of day, and risk/reward. Positions should be closed based on your risk/reward goals.
Indicators are not a magic pill and should be used to support trading decisions, not to make them for you. Past performance is not a guarantee of future returns. The results of individual stocks/indexes with any strategy do not constitute proof they will repeat in the future.
DISCLAIMER: The information contained in our scripts/indicators/ideas does not constitute financial advice or a solicitation to buy or sell any securities of any type. Trading and investing in the stock market and cryptocurrencies involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor. I’m NOT a financial adviser. All trading strategies are used at your own risk.
Please Use the AUTHOR’s INSTRUCTIONS link below for more information.
NOTE: The PERFORMANCE SUMMARY below does not accurately reflect the trading strategy because the entry orders generated in the strategy are based on the stock price and our actual order is a credit spread that is profitable even if the price moves against us a little bit. What could show as a loss in the strategy could be a profit in the credit spread.

---- STRATEGY
This study project is designed for scalping options that expire daily with bull put and bear call credit spreads on a 3 minute chart. The name 30_123 is a reference to 4 main criteria being met to give a green light for a potential trade. The 4 main criteria:
*30 = 30 minute trend
*1 = 3 minute trend
*2 = Moving average criteria
*3 = RSI criteria
4 = Secondary trend. Bonus if in sync but not a requirement.
* The strategy also utilizes momentum as a criteria.
This indicator is designed to trade options that expire daily including the SPY, IWM, QQQ, and NDX.
When 30_123 conditions are all green and all criteria are met a bull signal is created.
When 30_123 conditions are all red and criteria are met a bear signal is created.
The bull and bear signals are based on the stock/index price; BUT the actual orders are for option spreads that are normally based on a delta of approximately .15 to .25.
For example, if the SPY is at 400 we could have an order to sell a BULL PUT CREDIT SPREAD and I would likely sell the 398p and buy the 397p; The 398p delta would be approximately -.2. The spread position profits with any close over 398 and/or can be closed early with a bullish price move. IMPORTANT: If the SPY closed the day at $399 on the chart it would look like a loss based on the buy and sell orders but the spread would be a full profit since the close was above 398.
This script is used in conjunction with Jerry J8 30-123 Spy Scalping Dashboard Pro indicator which is the dashboard to give a visual for the 4 main criteria and makes things easier to understand.
---- TRADING TIME FRAME
The default time frame is 10:00 - 15:57 and can be controlled by the user. I do not enter trades in the first 30 minutes since that can be a very volatile period and you can easily configure the indicator and trading time frame based on how you trade.
---- MAJOR USER INPUTS
Paint Bars: Turns on/off the candle coloring for the trend
Exits: Open orders can be closed with 3 different exit criteria and all should be left on. These exits are needed to provide multiple entry signals throughout the day. However, you want to close the spreads based on your own criteria and not on the indicator.
Criteria: Trend, moving averages, RSI settings, and trading time frames can all be adjusted.
---- SETUP & HINTS

Acrylic's 1m/3m Scalper Buy/Sell SignalsAcrylic's Scalper Signals uses a combination of RSI / Stochastic / Williams %R to calculate the perfect entry signals. The script(with it's default settings) has been optimized and thoroughly tested on BTC & ETH 1 and 3 minute time frames. It's intended for quick in and out trades that should only last a few minutes unless a strong trend is caught. Basic knowledge of market structure is needed, as you will not be taking every signal generated by the script.
You also have the option to display all signals regardless of the short term trend that has been confirmed by RSI. This can be good if you're looking for reversal entries at resistance/support levels.
-Large triangle signal: Strongest signal that was confirmed with RSI & Williams %R optimized calculations. (prints at current candle close)
-Small triangle signal: Fractal signal can be used as a late entry signal/continuation. (prints after 2 candle closes)
-Candle colors are matched to stochastic strength for added confluence to enter trades. (Must hide default trading view candles to see these)
-233SMMA color is matched to the extreme short term trend based off of RSI calculations.
Perfect Long Entry Setup Image :
1) EMA21 > EMA55 > EMA100 > SMMA233(Colored green for added confluence) - All pointing up indicating strong trend
2) Enter on pullback to short term EMA after signal candle closes. (Do not take entry if candles closed below 100EMA)
Perfect Short Entry Setup Image :
1) EMA21 < EMA55 < EMA100 < SMMA233(Colored red for added confluence) - All pointing down indicating strong trend
2) Enter on pullback to short term EMA after signal candle closes. (Do not take entry if candles closed above 100EMA)
Feel free to ask questions or leave feedback in the comments, I'm always looking to improve! Thanks!
ATR PivotsThe "ATR Pivots" script is a technical analysis tool designed to help traders identify key levels of support and resistance on a chart. The indicator uses various metrics such as the Average True Range (ATR), Daily True Range ( DTR ), Daily True Range Percentage (DTR%), Average Daily Range (ADR), Previous Day High ( PDH ), and Previous Day Low ( PDL ) to provide a comprehensive picture of the volatility and movement of a security. The script also includes an EMA cloud and 200 EMA for trend identification and a 1-minute ATR scalping strategy for traders to make informed trading decisions.
ATR Detail:-
The ATR is a measure of the volatility of a security over a given period of time. It is calculated by taking the average of the true range (the difference between the high and low of a security) over a set number of periods. The user can input the number of periods (ATR length) to be used for the ATR calculation. The script also allows the user to choose whether to use the current close or not for the calculation. The script calculates various levels of support and resistance based on the relationship between the security's range ( high-low ) and the ATR. The levels are calculated by multiplying the ATR by different Fibonacci ratios (0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.786, 1.000) and then adding or subtracting the result from the previous close. The script plots these levels on the chart, with the -100 level being the most significant level. The user also has an option to choose whether to plot all Fibonacci levels or not.
DTR and DTR% Detail:-
The Daily True Range Percentage (DTR%) is a metric that measures the daily volatility of a security as a percentage of its previous close. It is calculated by dividing the Daily True Range ( DTR ) by the previous close. DTR is the range between the current period's high and low and gives a measure of the volatility of the security on a daily basis. DTR% can be used as an indicator of the percentage of movement of the security on a daily basis. In this script, DTR% is used in combination with other metrics such as the Average True Range (ATR) and Fibonacci ratios to calculate key levels of support and resistance for the security. The idea behind using DTR% is that it can help traders to better understand the daily volatility of the security and make more informed trading decisions.
For example, if a security has a DTR% of 2%, it suggests that the security has a relatively low level of volatility and is less likely to experience significant price movements on a daily basis. On the other hand, if a security has a DTR% of 10%, it suggests that the security has a relatively high level of volatility and is more likely to experience significant price movements on a daily basis.
ADR:-
The script then calculates the ADR (Average Daily Range) which is the average of the daily range of the security, using the formula (Period High - Period Low) / ATR Length. This gives a measure of the average volatility of the security on a daily basis, which can be useful for determining potential levels of support and resistance .
PDH /PDL:-
The script also calculates PDH (Previous Day High) and PDL (Previous Day Low) which are the High and low of the previous day of the security. This gives a measure of the previous day's volatility and movement, which can be useful for determining potential levels of support and resistance .
EMA Cloud and 200 EMA Detail:-
The EMA cloud is a technical analysis tool that helps traders identify the trend of the market by comparing two different exponential moving averages (EMAs) of different lengths. The cloud is created by plotting the fast EMA and the slow EMA on the chart and filling the space between them. The user can input the length of the fast and slow EMA , and the script will calculate and plot these EMAs on the chart. The space between the two EMAs is then filled with a color that represents the trend, with green indicating a bullish trend and red indicating a bearish trend . Additionally, the script also plots a 200 EMA , which is a commonly used long-term trend indicator. When the fast EMA is above the slow EMA and the 200 EMA , it is considered a bullish signal, indicating an uptrend. When the fast EMA is below the slow EMA and the 200 EMA , it is considered a bearish signal, indicating a downtrend. The EMA cloud and 200 EMA can be used together to help traders identify the overall trend of the market and make more informed trading decisions.
1 Minute ATR Scalping Strategy:-
The script also includes a 1-minute ATR scalping strategy that can be used by traders looking for quick profits in the market. The strategy involves using the ATR levels calculated by the script as well as the EMA cloud and 200 EMA to identify potential buy and sell opportunities. For example, if the 1-minute ATR is above 11 in NIFTY and the EMA cloud is bullish , the strategy suggests buying the security. Similarly, if the 1-minute ATR is above 30 in BANKNIFTY and the EMA cloud is bullish , the strategy suggests buying the security.
Inside Candle:-
The Inside Candle is a price action pattern that occurs when the current candle's high and low are entirely within the range of the previous candle's high and low. This pattern indicates indecision or consolidation in the market and can be a potential sign of a trend reversal. When used in the 15-minute chart, traders can look for Inside Candle patterns that occur at key levels of support or resistance. If the Inside Candle pattern occurs at a key level and the price subsequently breaks out of the range of the Inside Candle, it can be a signal to enter a trade in the direction of the breakout. Traders can also use the Inside Candle pattern to trade in a tight range, or to reduce their exposure to a current trend.
Risk Management:-
As with any trading strategy, it is important to practice proper risk management when using the ATR Pivots script and the 1-minute ATR scalping strategy. This may include setting stop-loss orders, using appropriate position sizing, and diversifying your portfolio. It is also important to note that past performance is not indicative of future results and that the script and strategy provided are for educational purposes only.
In conclusion, the "ATR Pivots" script is a powerful tool that can help traders identify key levels of support and resistance , as well as trend direction. The additional metrics such as DTR , DTR%, ADR, PDH , and PDL provide a more comprehensive picture of the volatility and movement of the security, making it easier for traders to make better trading decisions. The inclusion of the EMA cloud and 200 EMA for trend identification, and the 1-minute ATR scalping strategy for quick profits can further enhance a trader's decision-making process. However, it is important to practice proper risk management and understand that past performance is not indicative of future results.
Special thanks to satymahajan for the idea of clubbing Average True Range with Fibonacci levels.

Take out all remaining position size.
If price reaches TP1, the SL is set to the entry price.
Dual Bollinger Band Mean ReversionSimple but solid mean reversion indicator with sl and tp levels. Most of the code is based on the built in bollinger bands script. Designed for scalping 1-5 minute timeframes.
The indicator consists of two sets of bollinger bands.
Price has to close below the lower (fast) bollinger band, above the moving average of the (slower) bollinger band.
If price now closes above the lower (fast) bb, the indicator draws a label at the open of the next candle (which would be a potential entry point). Take profit becomes the upper bollinger band, stop loss the same distance below the open of the candle.
I've built in a simple backtesting function that calculates the potential win/loss-ratio. Loss and profit levels are 1:1. Exit strategy could be improved on.
Adjusting the lengths depending on the asset proves to be a good idea.
The slower bollinger bands can help to identify ranging markets and/or trends following regular bollinger bands theory.
Feel free to comment with any changes that you'd like to be made.
Round Numbers Breakouts Smart Formula Signals and AlertsThis indicator uses Round Numbers breakouts and then uses smart formula with the near Round Numbers to determine best TP (take profit)/SL (stop loss) areas. Furthermore, it calculates win percentage, shows in-profit/in-loss peaks and the price amount result over a customizable date range, which when combined well with the smart formula provides decent profitable outcome. I have decided to write my own backtesting engine as the integrated TradingView strategy one has limitations and has shown inconsistencies when compared to manual backtesting…
There are many settings you can manually change to trade any instrument, any style, any approach and there are presets included for Bitcoin(BTCUSD), FOREX(EURUSD), SPY(S&P500), so you can start trading immediately! Alerts correspond to indicator settings and are turned on with a few clicks. There are 3 tables (each can be shown/hidden) showing everything you need to see/know to calibrate the indicator as you wish.
Labels, lines, tables explanations (everything can be hidden/shown):
- LONG Labels: medium-green: position open, dark-green: SL, bright-green: TP, blue: TP2
- SHORT Labels: medium-red: position open, dark-red: SL, bright-red: TP, purple: TP2
- Gray circles: position entry area | Yellow crosses: SL area
- Green line: Long TP1, Blue line: Long TP2 | Red Line: Short TP1, Purple line: Short TP2
- Grey lines: Round Numbers (customized via “Round Number up/down measure unit” input)
- Yellow labels at end of each week: end of week OVERALL total results
- Red colored background: power segment
- 3 tables: 1) INFO | STATS, 2) SPY Options Calculator, 3) Indicator Settings
If you decide to fully customize the indicator yourself, on the very top - under “PRESETS” select “MANUAL”! NOTE: If you select any of the pre-set presets, only GLOBAL settings can be changed, the rest of the settings will be “frozen” until you switch it to “MANUAL”!
- Global Settings are self-explanatory and mainly observational, show/hide, etc.
- Manual TP2 (Multi-Take-Profit) Settings:
>>>>> Include TP2 System? Turn on/off multi-profit system, with this unchecked, every trade will either end with SL or with TP1.
>>>>> TP2 System: NEAREST/FORMULA, NEAREST – after TP1 is taken > next TP2 will be a round number price target nearest to where TP1 was taken (sometimes it can be very near, sometimes further away…), FORMULA – 2nd round number price target will be optimally selected based on the distance behind and ahead of TP1 area. For TP2 – FORMULA would be the most logical choice as with multi-take-profit setting turned on – you’d want to ride it out as far as possible.
>>>>> TP1/TP2 division type: 1) Each price target (TP1, TP2) will be ½ of the position 2) TP1 will be 2/3 of the position and TP2 will be the remaining 1/3.
>>>>> TP2 hit type: “close” > candle has to close on top/crossing the price target line, “touch” > once candle touches the price target – you will be immediately alerted to take the partial profit (if you will use such setting – you will need to take the partial profits as soon as you receive the alert.
>>>>> TP1 > Back to Entry hit type: similar to TP2, “close” > candle close, “touch” > candle touch. Please note: this is a very tricky setting as if you use “close” option – your profitable trade may become a loss if a huge candle will close against your position eliminating your TP1 profit, however often the price will touch and cross the entry area to only bounce and continue with your position direction for even bigger profits… so experiment with the date range results to see what works best for your instrument/setting/strategy.
>>>>> TP2 count towards trades count: this can be a bit confusing, but it is simply how should TP2 be treated towards trades count. The indicator will show you Win Percentage and Win % is obtained from winning trades count divided by total trades count. While TP2 is not “a new trade”, it expands the profit of the trade. This is an experimental setting to count TP2 as the whole winning trade, ½ of a trade, or not count it at all.
- Manual Signals/TP1 Settings:
>>>>> TP1/TP2 offset: this one is really cool, with this feature you can hunt these conditions when the price comes very near the profit target area, but never touches it. With this setting turned on and with a good offset amount – you will be able to catch these for TP1 and TP2!
>>>>> TP1/TP2 offset amount: just what the title says, please be careful with this as this number varies significantly depending on the instrument you will be trading. Examples: 1) For SPY 0.1 would be $0.10 offset - if TP1 is $400 and price hits $399.90 > TP1 considered taken/signal shown/alert) | 2) For EURUSD, it is very different and if wrong will show TP1 immediately at position open, typical good offset for EURUSD is: 0.0005 | 3) For BTCUSD, 10 - $10 offset, if TP is $15,000 > $14,990, etc.
>>>>> Round Number up/down measure unit (in dollars $): this one is very important if you will be using “MANUAL” selection to build your own setup as it is very different for every instrument. For SPY, round numbers are single dollars or even half-dollar 50 cent numbers: 1 or 0.5 (350, 351, 352, etc. or 350.50, 351, 351.50, 352, etc.), while for Bitcoin (BTCUSD) a single unit ($1) is too small to be a round number as Bitoin moves much faster and wider every second and it would have to be at least 50 ($50) to make sense. Similar for FOREX (EUR/USD) a single 1 unit ($1) will be too big as EURUSD will never move a whole $1 in 15 minutes or even a day.. and would have to be something like 1.05500. You can easily determine if this number makes sense for your instrument by observing the grey Round Number lines which will correspond based on this setting. You can also visually observer if the price of the instrument appreciates these round numbers.
>>>>> Close Position Before Market Closes: just what the title says. Indicator will close the position 15 minutes before market closes (US session), update backtesting stats, alert you.
>>>>> Close Position Before Power Hour: 3PM – 4PM ET is the last hour of US trading session, where sudden move in any direction can happen with huge volatility, while sometimes nothing will happen at all… Many try to avoid it, so if you wish to avoid it as well - turn this on and it will alert you to close your positions 15 minutes before Power Hour starts, backtesting/stats will be adjusted accordingly.
>>>>> Skip OVERSIZED candles in signals: turn on this setting to skip signals, which happen to fall on big candles. This is basically a protection from huge volatility moves, which usually happen during financial news/events and if you are not a fan of these – you can set this option for indicator to not open anything based on the candle size.
>>>>> Color OVERSIZED candles: this will help you calibrate the size of the OVERSIZED candles if you decide to use this setting and overall visually see them.
>>>>> OVERSIZED candle size: OVERSIZED candle size must be input as it varies significantly. Please note: for each instrument – the size number is completely different, as for SPY: 2 would mean any candle bigger than $2 distance will be considered OVERSIZED, for Bitcoin it would have to be several hundred dollars, like 400-500. For FOREX, this would have to be a decimal, for EURUSD something like 0.0005. It’s best to experiment visually with this setting depending on the instrument you will be trading while setting up the size. To see a typical huge unusual candle – look up financial calendar for something like FOMC meeting, then measure the candle input it into this setting.
>>>>> OVERSIZED candle size calculation type: this is just more flexibility for your preference. If you wish to calculate the size of the candle based on the open/close – select “BODY”, if you wish to use high/low – select “STICKS (from tip to tip)”. Hard to say which one is better, so it is up to you to decide.
>>>>> Include EMA in signal formula: LONG signals will only be shown only if above EMA, SHORT if below EMA. EMA length is of course customizable in below.
>>>>> Skip opposite candle types in signals: signals where the candle color confirms the direction of the trade, but the candle type is opposite (like a green colored bearish hammer for example) will be avoided (such candles can be very uncertain/deceptive).
>>>>> Skip doji: signals where the signal candle is doji (uncertain) will be avoided.
>>>>> TP1 hit type/system: same thing as TP2 hit type/system.
>>>>> SL hit type/system: same as TP1 and TP2 types/systems.
>>>>> Intraday Session Signals Active Time in ET: time range during the day when indicator will show signals (open trades, alert you, etc.). This is specifically for intraday trading. You can turn it off completely by selecting a BLANK option.
>>>>> Intraday TP/SL Active Time in ET: same as above, but for taking profits/stop losses.

HMA Breakout Buy/Sell indicator for Scalping & Intraday - ShyamHi All,
This is a very simple indicator which provides the buy signal, when the moving average lines turns Green and sell signal, when the moving average signal turns red. This can be used for both intraday and scalping method with different timeframes. But best time frame is 5 minutes.
Buy Signal >>> Line turns GREEN (Use trailing SL to cover maximum profit)
Sell Signal >>> Line turns RED (Use trailing SL to cover maximum profit)
No trade >>> Line turns GRAY
Best timeframe >>> 5 minutes
Thanks,
Shyam
Gedhusek ScalpingRangerThis indicator was designed for finding good entries for scalping the market
How does it work:
- It works on a basis of price running out of its bands and its return
- Once the price is out of bands, the system starts scanning for two patterns --> sudden price reversion and losing of momentum.
- If any of these patterns occur, the indicator waits for a confirmation bar and after that it gives you a signal that the price could be moving upwards or downwards.
- These signals are represented by a label and sudden price change of the current bar
- Also you will see a dotted line above or below the bar that can be used as a potential Stop Loss level
Idea behind the trigger patterns:
Sudden price reversion
- Idea behind this pattern is that the price has a higher success of reversion if there is a fast change of its momentum. This pattern is recognized by measuring the divergence between prior and current price change
- The divergence is measured as correlation between shorter-term price action and longer-term price action. If the correlation is negative and statistically significant, it is counted as a reversion signal (= shorter-time price action goes in the opposite direction of longer-term price action)
Losing of momentum
- The idea behind this pattern is that once there is no strong momentum, there is lower probability of a breakout and start of strong trend
- It is calculated as a difference between current price and previous price. If the difference is minimal, it is taken as a signal that the price lost its momentum and therefore there is higher chance of reversion.
When to use:
- This indicator works well in ranging markets, but slightly less well in trending markets. Therefore look for sideways markets and use the indicator there
- Price action patterns work really well with this indicator, such as Support and Resistance levels, double Tops and Bottoms,...
Inputs:
- This indicator has only one input and that is "Analysis Period". This input declares how many bars and going to be used when finding the patterns of possible price reversion
