Easy Trade Pro [Buy and Sell Strategy + Backtesting System]Hello Traders,
Easy Trade Pro is a comprehensive tool that combines multiple technical indicators into a single customizable one. This tool is the culmination of an extensive trading career, it is designed to help traders navigate the markets in any timeframe and financial asset, like Equities, Futures, Crypto, Forex and Commodities.
Before we deep dive into the comprehensive guide on what Easy Trade Pro is, let's kick off by showcasing the strategy used in this example. Please note, we have adopted an extremely conservative approach strictly following the Tradingview House Rules, which you can review here: www.tradingview.com
The backtest strategy parameters:
Currency pair: EUR USD
Timeframe: 15-min chart
Market: Spot, no leverage
Broker: FXCM
Trading range: 2022-09-01 07:30 — 2023-06-26 20:00
Backtesting range: 2022-08-31 23:00 — 2023-06-26 20:00
Initial Capital: $10,000
Buy Order Size: 20% of the capital, $2,000
Stop Loss: 0.50%
Sell orders: Four different take profits where we unload the position by 25% each time
Broker Fees: Commission set at 0.08$
Slippage: 10 ticks
Understanding FXCM Commissions and Setting Realistic Slippage for EUR/USD Spot Trading:
◉I would like to provide some clarity on the commission structure and slippage setting used in the study for trading the EUR/USD pair on the FXCM spot market. Based on the information available, FXCM charges a commission of $4.00 per standard lot (100,000) on both sides of the trade (meaning at open and close) for the EUR/USD pair. Since the study involve an order size of $2,000 USD, which is equivalent to 0.02 lots, the commission fee for one side of the trade (either buying or selling) would be calculated as $4.00 multiplied by 0.02, which is $0.08. This means that for each individual trade, whether it be a buy or sell, the commission fee would be $0.08.
◉As for slippage, it is crucial to account for the inherent uncertainty in the execution price due to market fluctuations. In the forex market, the EUR/USD pair is quoted with a precision of five decimal places, with the smallest price change being a "pipette" (0.00001). Given that slippage can vary based on market conditions, it is considered fair practice to use a slippage of around 10 ticks under normal market conditions for the EUR/USD pair. This allows for a more realistic representation of the execution price, especially in a liquid and fast-moving market such as forex.

Enter a Trade conditions:
For our buy order, we utilize a custom buy signal called 'Bullish Reversal'. A detailed explanation of this and other buy orders can be found later in the guide, specifically in section 1).
To enhance realism in our trading strategy, we have implemented a confirmation mechanism. When utilizing the strategy tester, you have the option to input a value to determine the number of confirmation candles to consider.
For example, if you set the input to 1, the system will check if the next candle following the signal meets the criteria for confirmation. If set to 2, the system will evaluate the second candle, and so on for higher values. The confirmation is determined by comparing the closing or opening price of the selected buy signal candle with the corresponding closing price of the confirmation candle.
In this case we choose as buy signal: 'Bullish Reversal' + 2 candle of confirmation
Exit a trade conditions:
On the sell side, we exit a trade in four different types of sell orders where we take profits. Inside '', you will encounter unique labels attributed to our custom sell signals. A detailed explanation of these sell orders can be found later in the guide, specifically in section 1). We used custom order called:
1TP 'Good Sell'
2TP 'Good Sell'
3TP 'Good Sell'
4TP 'Bearish Reversal' + 4 confirmation candles
Our confirmation logic, for sell signals, is applied only to 'Bearish Reversal' signal. The confirmation is determined by comparing the closing or opening price of the selected 'Bearish Reversal' candle with the corresponding closing price of the confirmation candle. In this case, we wait for the fourth candle from the 'Bearish Reversal' signal to confirm the sell trade.
Protect your capital:
This super-conservative study involves a clear low risk, with the use of $2,000, 20% of our capital. If the stop loss of 0.5% were triggered, we lose 10$, equating to 0.10% of $10,000 - thus affecting only 0.10% of our capital.
Super Conservative Approach & Results:
With 353 closed trades, we achieved a net profit of 2.03%, or $203.34$ relative to our initial $10,000 capital, and a win rate of 73.37%.
Less Conservative Approach & Results:
We could also consider increasing our risk to 0.5% of our capital per trade. We would maintain our stop loss at 0.50%, but we would need to use all our capital to enter the market. If the stop loss of 0.5% will be triggered, we would lose 50$, equating to 0.5% of $10,000.
In this scenario, our net profit would have increased to 10.15%, equivalent to $1015.
Please be aware:
While fully automated strategies can bring considerable advantages, they are not without their cons. For one, relying solely on an automated system may not take into account the potential confluence of other strategies or indicators, such as the significance of support and resistance zones. These elements often require a more nuanced, human understanding of the markets and cannot always be perfectly replicated by an algorithm.
Additionally, it's essential to remember that a significant percentage of traders are not consistently profitable. As such, prudent risk management, a conservative approach, and acceptance of a reasonable profit are crucial aspects of successful trading. While the allure of high returns can be tempting, the sustainability of your trading strategy should always take precedence. Achieving steady, reliable profits over time often outweighs the appeal of a risky, high-return strategy that could potentially lead to substantial losses.
So, while automation can be a powerful tool in your trading arsenal, it's also important to consider other strategies and factors. Always ensure you're managing your risk effectively and approaching trading with a realistic and informed perspective.
------------------------------------------------------------------------ Why Easy Trade Pro is Original? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We developed Easy Trade Pro as a unique and comprehensive solution, and we decided to protect our code to preserve its originality. We invested significant time and effort into making it a realistic trading strategy simulator. The standout features that set Easy Trade Pro apart include:
☀ Versatile Stop Loss Mechanisms: Stop loss execution can be complex and often requires careful coding to work as intended. In most freely available open-source codes, stop losses are implemented using the Average True Range (ATR). ATR can be beneficial but has limitations:
☁ Lagging Indicator - Like most technical indicators, the ATR is a lagging indicator. This means it is based on past data, and so it may not accurately reflect future market volatility. If market conditions change rapidly, the ATR may not adjust quickly enough, potentially leading to suboptimal stop loss levels.
☁ No Directional Information - The ATR measures volatility, but it does not provide any indication of the direction of the trend. Therefore, it should not be used as a standalone tool for making trading decisions, but should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools that can provide directional cues.
☁ Inefficiency in Trending Markets - In strongly trending markets, ATR-based stops can sometimes be too far from the current price level. This could lead to larger losses if the price moves against your trade before hitting the stop loss. On the flip side, in less volatile, sideways markets, an ATR-based stop might be set too close to the entry point, leading to premature stop outs.
☁ Overoptimization Risk - If you're backtesting a trading strategy, there's a risk of overoptimizing your stop loss settings by fine-tuning them to past data. The best ATR multiplier that worked in the past might not necessarily work in the future, leading to potential performance issues.
☀ We countered these by implementing four different types of 'protect the trade' mechanisms:
✔ Fixed Percentage Stop Loss
✔ Trailing Stop Loss
✔ Stop Loss Moved to Entry Upon Reaching Certain Gain
✔ Stop Loss Moved to Entry Upon Reaching First Take Profit Order ("Custom Order").
☀ Dual Exit Strategy: We incorporated two distinct methods of exiting a trade. The first uses our custom signals, while the second triggers exit at a certain percentage of gain.
☀ Multiple Take Profit Orders: You have the flexibility to establish up to four different sell orders. This feature enables you to fractionate your exit strategy according to your needs. You can choose to trigger these fractions based on our custom signals or determine your own exit points by setting targeted gains at a fixed percentage.
☀ Confirmation Candle System: This feature enhances trade precision by requiring confirmation candles after a buy or sell signal. This confirmation, dependent on the next candle's closing price, helps reduce false signals and improves entry and exit points. While our confirmation system is applicable to all custom buy signals, it's solely dedicated for the bearish reversal when it comes to sell signals.
☀ Universal Compatibility: Easy Trade Pro's Strategy Tester works perfectly with any asset class. The code can handle different contract types, including the SPX contracts and fractional assets like Bitcoin. It's optimized to ensure proper execution of trades without rounding issues.
☀ Bullish and Bearish Reversal candles: Our method of detecting these pivotal candles combines conditions from buy and sell signals with pertinent divergences in Price, RSI, and Volume (OBV). The distinguishing factor, however, lies in recognizing significant shifts in market structure and liquidity grabs. To further enhance the credibility of our indicator, we've incorporated Bollinger Bands, serving as an additional layer in spotting potential trend reversals, particularly when aligned with long-wick candlesticks, engulfing patterns, and morning or evening star formations.
☀ Non-Repainting Indicator: Our indicator signals are designed not to repaint. Once a signal appears, it stays fixed, offering a reliable tool for your trading decisions.

8) Our software also includes a backtesting system that that allows users to test their trading strategies on historical data, to check how they would have performed in real-world market conditions. This can help refine a trading strategy and make more informed decisions.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1) BUY AND SELL SIGNALS ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Our buy and sell signals are generated using a custom combination of RSI, MFI, and Stochastic RSI levels, as well as relevant MACD and Stochastic RSI crosses. These indicators are carefully analyzed to identify potential trading opportunities and determine optimal entry and exit points for trades.
RSI (Relative strength index) measures the strength of a security's price action, while the SRSI (Stochastic Relative Strength Index) is a momentum oscillator that measures the current price relative to its high and low range over a set period. The Money Flow Index (MFI) is another momentum indicator that uses both price and volume data to measure buying and selling pressure. MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) is a popular technical indicator used in financial markets to analyze price trends and momentum.
▶ With our system, you'll be able to identify three different levels of buy signals:
◉ The first level of buy signal is represented by a 🐂 emoji and is a "Good Buy". This signal indicates a possible buying opportunity. It indicates that could be a good opportunity to enter in a long trade. It's important to note that, the "Good Buy" signal can sometimes be supplemented with a green "Bull" text and a flag plotshape positioned beneath the signal. In these scenarios, we categorize this as a "Good Buy Bull" signal.
◉ The second level of buy signal is represented by a 💰 emoji and is a "Great Buy". This signal indicates a stronger buying opportunity than the "Good Buy" signal.
◉ The third and strongest buy signal is represented by a 💎 emoji and is an "Incredible Buy". This signal indicates a stronger buying opportunity than the "Good Buy" and "Great Buy" signals
▶ With our system, you'll be able to identify three different levels of sell signals:
◉ On the sell side, the first level is represented by a 🐻 emoji and is a "Good Sell". This signal indicates a possible selling opportunity. It indicates that could be a good opportunity to exit a trade or open a short position. It's important to note that, the "Good Sell" signal can occasionally be accompanied by a red "Bear" text and a flag plotshape positioned beneath the signal. In such instances, we refer to this as a "Good Sell Bear" signal.
◉ The second sell signal is represented by a 🔨 emoji and is a "Great Sell". This signal indicates a stronger selling opportunity than the "Good Sell" signal.
◉ The third and strongest sell signal is represented by a 💀 emoji and is an "Incredible Sell". This signal indicates a stronger selling opportunity than the "Good Sell" and "Great Sell" signals.
------------------------------------------2) "BULLISH AND BEARISH REVERSAL CANDLES PLUS SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE LINES" ------------------------------------------------
Bullish and bearish reversal candles are specific candles that have more probability to reverse the trend.
Our trading indicator is designed to identify bullish and bearish reversal candles. Our method of detecting these pivotal candles combines conditions from buy and sell signals with pertinent divergences in Price, RSI, and Volume (OBV). The distinguishing factor, however, lies in recognizing significant shifts in market structure and liquidity grabs. To further enhance the credibility of our indicator, we've incorporated Bollinger Bands, serving as an additional layer in spotting potential trend reversals, particularly when aligned with long-wick candlesticks, engulfing patterns, and morning or evening star formations.
These candles are represented by blue and orange colors respectively by default. Additionally, the indicator also uses lines that are drawn at either the opening or closing of candles to help identify pivot points of support or resistance. These candles, lines color or shape are customizable in the settings menu.
How can I benefit the most from bullish reversal candles? To make the most of bullish reversal candles, a powerful strategy is:
E.g, 1D chart - Wait for the next 1 or 2 candles to close above the support line linked to the bullish reversal candle. For lower timeframes, it is recommended to wait for 2 or 3 candles before making a trading decision. A good tip is also to look for other signals (confluence), like a buy signal. Traders should decide based on their risk tolerance.
Here below we can see an example of a bullish reversal candle in the BTC/USDT, 1D, chart. The system identify a bullish reversal candle (blue color), the next 2 candles are green and closed above the support blue line, in addition we have other bullish signals (confluence).
How can I benefit the most from bullish reversal lines? Bullish reversal lines can help traders to identify key level of support and maintain control of their position until a clear break below occurs.
In the example below we se how the price retrace to the support line:
After touching the price bounce up.
How can I benefit the most from bearish reversal candles? To make the most of bearish reversal candles, a powerful strategy is:
E.g, 1D chart - Wait for the next 1 or 2 candles to close below the resistance line linked to the bearish reversal candle. For lower timeframes, it is recommended to wait for 2 or 3 candles before making a trading decision. Traders should decide based on their risk tolerance.
Here below we can see an example of a bearish reversal candle in the ETH/USDT, 1D, chart. The system identify a bearish reversal candle (orange color), the next candle is red and closes below the resistance orange line. A good tip is also to look for other signals (confluence), like a sell signal.
How can I benefit the most from bearish reversal lines? Bearish reversal lines can help traders to identify key level of resistance and maintain control of their position until a clear break above occurs.
In the example below we se how the price bounce back to the resistance line and get rejected.
------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3) BULL AND BEAR MOMENTUM SIGNALS -----------------------------------------------------------------------
We analyzed factors such as buy or sell signals, long or short confirmation signals, DMI crossup or crossdown and breaks of market structure (BOS) or change of character (CHoCh) to determine the strength and direction of the trend. These study give us bull trend or bear trend signals that can help traders identify potential trading opportunities and make informed decisions.
These conditions are represented by a green word "BULL" and a flag shape below (bull momentum) and by a red word "BEAR" and a flag shape above (bear momentum) respectively by default. These plots shapes are customizable in the settings menu.
How can I benefit the most from bull momentum signals? To make the most of bull momentum signals, a powerful strategy is:
E.g, 1D chart - Look for confluence. If bull signal comes with a "Good Buy 🐂" in the same candle the signal is more strong. Another good combo is to look for a bullish reversal candle prior or after this signal, usually within a range of 1/2 candles. For lower timeframes, it is recommended to wait 2/3 candles before making a trading decision.
In the picture below we can see an example of a bull momentum signal in the US500, 1D, chart.
How can I benefit the most from bear momentum signals? To make the most of bear momentum signals, a powerful strategy is:
E.g, 1D chart - Look for confluence. If bear signal comes with a "Good Sell 🐻" in the same candle the signal is more strong. Another good combo is to look for a bearish reversal candle prior or after this signal, usually within a range of 1/2 candles. For lower timeframes, it is recommended to wait 2/3 candles before making a trading decision.
In the picture below we can see an example of a bear momentum signal in combo with a sell signal, NETFLIX, 1D, chart.
-------------------------------------------------------------- 4) "COLOR BARS THAT INDICATE THE STRENGTH OF THE TREND -----------------------------------------------------
This code is responsible for changing the color of the bars on a chart based on certain conditions. The gradient colors are defined for green and red, and the algorithm checks if the current bar is within a certain range of either a bearish reversal or bullish reversal candle and whether the price is above or below certain exponential moving averages or if important break of market structure occurs.
Ultimately, this feature helps traders visually identify potential trends and market shifts and avoid getting distracted by price fluctuations. Please note that every gradient of color can be customize by the user. We set 3 different bullish colors and 3 different bearish colors.
Below the picture of the settings menu related to the bar color.
----------------------------------------------------------------------5)THREE CUSTOMIZABLE MOVING AVERAGES ----------------------------------------------------------------------
You can choose up to three moving averages, any length and any type like SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA, RMA, SWMA and VWMA. Furthermore, you have the freedom to adjust the color and width of the lines to your preference.
Below the picture of the settings menu related to the moving averages.
----------------------------------------------------------------------6) ALERTS DIRECT TO YOUR EMAIL OR PHONE --------------------------------------------------------------------
Our alert feature sends real-time notifications directly to your email or phone when a signal is generated, allowing you to take immediate action and stay ahead of the market.
With our system, you first establish your own rules for trading in the strategy tester - this includes your criteria for entering and exiting trades.
Once you've defined these conditions, our system will start sending you alerts. These alerts will be triggered whenever your specified conditions are met. So, if the market matches your 'enter trade' conditions, you'll receive an alert prompting. Similarly, when your 'exit trade' conditions are met, you'll receive another alert.
Remember, these alerts are purely based on the conditions you set.
Once the condition is met, you will receive alerts directly to your email or phone when enter and exit a trade based on your custom conditions. To make sure you receive these notifications click on notifications tab.
---------------------------------------------------------------7) ADVANCED AND CUSTOMIZABLE SETTINGS MENU----------------------------------------------------------------------
We designed Easy Trade indicators with traders in mind, so it's user-friendly, easy to navigate and users can customize inputs, style, and colors of every feature in the indicator's settings menu.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------8) EASY TRADE PRO - BACKTESTING SYSTEM----------------------------------------------------------------------
Easy Trade Pro features a highly effective and realistic backtesting system, designed to mirror as closely as possible the real-world scenarios of entering and exiting trades.
Step 1:
Open the settings menu of the Indicator.
Once opened the settings menu click on properties.
Decide on the capital you wish to invest. Choose whether to use contracts or USD and determine the size of your orders. For the sake of realism, we recommend not exceeding 25% of your capital per order. However, if you decide to utilize your entire capital, make sure to adjust your stop loss accordingly. For instance, if you have a capital of 10K and use 10K with a stop loss at 2%, your potential loss would be $200. Conversely, if you use only 2K of your 10K capital with a stop loss at 10%, you would still lose the same 2% of your capital. To make your simulation even more authentic, consider incorporating broker fees or commissions into your calculations. For example, spot market fees are typically around 0.10%. If you're backtesting markets with low liquidity, consider factoring in slippage as well.
Step 2:
Navigate to the 'Inputs' section and scroll down until you come across 'Backtesting System - Strategy Test'. Once you locate this, click on the box and activate the 'USE STRATEGY SYSTEM' option by checking the tick box.
Also You will then need to set a 'Start Date' and 'End Date', establishing a specific time period during which you wish to test your strategy.
Otherwise you can consider to use the deep backtesting feature.
Step 3:
It's now time to establish the conditions for entering a trade. You can choose from five different types of custom buy signals: Good Buy, Good Buy Bull, Great Buy, Incredible Buy, and Bullish Reversal. Note that 'Great Buy' and 'Incredible Buy' are rare signals, so we advise against using them frequently in mechanical strategy tests; instead, consider them more for manual live tests. For more consistent results, we recommend using the other buy signals.
After determining your preferred buy signal, you can choose how many confirmation candles you wish to wait for before entering a trade. A 'confirmation' means that if the next candle closes above the opening or closing price of the chosen buy signal, it's considered a confirmation. This could be the opening or closing price, depending on whether the candle is green (close > open) or red.
You can set the number of confirmation candles in different time frames: below 2h, between 2h and 10h, and above 10h.
Step 4:
It's now time to safeguard your trade by managing risk. You can choose to implement a stop loss, expressed in percentage terms, or opt for a trailing stop. A trailing stop is a type of stop loss order that moves with the market price. It is designed to protect gains by enabling a trade to remain open and continue to profit as long as the market price is moving in a favorable direction. However, the trade closes if the market price changes direction by a specified amount (the 'trailing stop distance').
Additionally, you can minimize losses and move the stop loss to your entry point once the price reaches a certain percentage of profit. This strategy can help secure potential gains while limiting the potential for losses.
Step 5:
Now it's time to set the conditions for exiting the trade. You have the option to divide your exit into a maximum of four parts, with each part representing 25% of the position size. For each take profit point, you can choose from three different custom sell signals: Good Sell, Good Sell Bear, and Bearish Reversal.
Similarly, the concept of confirmation candles also applies here, but in this case, the candles are not closing above. A 'confirmation' for a sell signal means that if the next candle closes below the opening or closing price of the selected sell signal, it's considered a confirmation. This could be the opening or closing price, depending on whether the candle is green (open > close) or red (close < open).
So, when you're looking to sell, a confirmation would occur if the next candlestick's closing price is lower than the opening or closing price of the candlestick that triggered the sell signal. This indicates a potential bearish trend, providing the confirmation to execute the sell order.
Additionally, we've introduced a feature that allows you to move your stop loss to the entry point whenever the first take profit (1TP) is reached, which equates to hitting one custom sell signal.
Step 6:
We've also designed an alternative method for taking profits. With this approach, you can choose to exit your position once a fixed percentage gain from the entry point is reached. For instance, you might decide to exit when a 10% profit is achieved. Similarly to the previous method, this approach allows you to choose up to four exit points and determine the proportion of your position you want to close at each stage.
Conclusion:
Easy Trade Pro provides users with various options for entering and exiting trades. To effectively utilize the indicator, we strongly recommend conducting thorough backtesting and considering the results across your preferred trading pairs. It is advisable to analyze a substantial number of trades, ideally exceeding 100 trades, to obtain reliable insights into the indicator's performance. This approach will help you gain a better understanding of how Easy Trade Pro aligns with your trading strategy and objectives.
❗Keep attention❗
It is important to note that no trading indicator or strategy is foolproof, and there is always a risk of losses in trading. While this indicator may provide useful information for making conclusions, it should not be used as the sole basis for making trading decisions. Traders should always use proper risk management techniques and consider multiple factors when making trading decisions.
It is also important to be aware of the limitations of simulated performance results. Hypothetical or simulated results do not represent actual trading, and since trades have not been executed, results may be over- or under-compensated for market factors such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs are also designed with the benefit of hindsight, and no representation is being made that any account will achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. Therefore, our indicators are for informative purposes only and not intended to be used as financial advice.
We encourage traders to use our indicators as part of a well-rounded trading strategy and to always be aware of the risks involved in trading. Remember that past performance is not indicative of future results and always trade responsibly.

Equilibrium Candles + Pattern [Honestcowboy]The Equilibrium Candles is a very simple trend continuation or reversal strategy depending on your settings.
How an Equilibrium Candle is created:
We calculate the equilibrium by measuring the mid point between highest and lowest point over X amount of bars back.
This now is the opening price for each bar and will be considered a green bar if price closes above equilibrium.
Bars get shaded by checking if regular candle close is higher than open etc. So you still see what the normal candles are doing.
Why are they useful?
The equilibrium is calculated the same as Baseline in Ichimoku Cloud. Which provides a point where price is very likely to retrace to. This script visualises the distance between close and equilibrium using candles. To provide a clear visual of how price relates to this equilibrium point.
This also makes it more straightforward to develop strategies based on this simple concept and makes the trader purely focus on this relationship and not think of any Ichimoku Cloud theories.
Script uses a very simple pattern to enter trades:
It will count how many candles have been one directional (above or below equilibrium)
Based on user input after X candles (7 by default) script shows we are in a trend (bg colors)
On the first pullback (candle closes on other side of equilibrium) it will look to enter a trade.
Places a stop order at the high of the candle if bullish trend or reverse if bearish trend.
If based on user input after X opposite candles (2 by default) order is not filled will cancel it and look for a new trend.
Use Reverse Logic:
There is a use reverse logic in the settings which on default is turned on. It will turn long orders into short orders making the stop orders become limit orders. It will use the normal long SL as target for the short. And TP as stop for the short. This to provide a means to reverse equity curve in case your pair is mean reverting by nature instead of trending.
ATR Calculation:
Averaged ATR, which is using ta.percentile_nearest_rank of 60% of a normal ATR (14 period) over the last 200 bars. This in simple words finds a value slightly above the mean ATR value over that period.
Big Candle Exit Logic:
Using Averaged ATR the script will check if a candle closes X times that ATR from the equilibrium point. This is then considered an overextension and all trades are closed.
This is also based on user input.
Simple trade management logic:
Checks if the user has selected to use TP and SL, or/and big candle exit.
Places a TP and SL based on averaged ATR at a multiplier based on user Input.
Closes trade if there is a Big Candle Exit or an opposite direction signal from indicator.
Script can be fully automated to MT5
There are risk settings in % and symbol settings provided at the bottom of the indicator. The script will send alert to MT5 broker trying to mimic the execution that happens on tradingview. There are always delays when using a bridge to MT5 broker and there could be errors so be mindful of that. This script sends alerts in format so they can be read by tradingview.to which is a bridge between the platforms.
Use the all alert function calls feature when setting up alerts and make sure you provide the right webhook if you want to use this approach.
There is also a simple buy and sell alert feature if you don't want to fully automate but still get alerts. These are available in the dropdown when creating an alert.
Almost every setting in this indicator has a tooltip added to it. So if any setting is not clear hover over the (?) icon on the right of the setting.
The backtest uses a 4% exposure per trade and a 10 point slippage. I did not include a commission cause I'm not personaly aware what the commissions are on most forex brokers. I'm only aware of minimal slippage to use in a backtest. Trading conditions vary per broker you use so always pay close attention to trading costs on your own broker. Use a full automation at your own risk and discretion and do proper backtesting.
Reflected ema Difference (RED) This script, titled "Reflected EMA Difference (RED)," is based on the logic of evaluating the percentage of convergence and divergence between two moving averages, specifically the Hull Moving Averages (HMA), to make price-related decisions. The Hull Moving Average, created by Alan Hull, is used as the foundation of this strategy, offering a faster and more accurate way to analyze market trends. In this script, the concept is employed to measure and reflect price variations.
Script Functionality Overview:
Hull Moving Averages (HMA): The script utilizes two HMAs, one short-term and one long-term. The main idea is to compute the Delta Difference between these two moving averages, which represents how much they are converging or diverging from each other. This difference is key to identifying potential market trend changes.
Reflected HMA Value: Using the Delta Difference between the HMAs, the value of the short-term HMA is reflected, creating a visual reference point that helps traders see the relationship between price and HMAs on the chart.
Percentage Change Index: The second key parameter is the percentage change index. This determines when a trend is reversing, allowing buy or sell orders to be established based on significant changes in the relationship between the HMAs and the price.
Delta Multiplier: The script comes with a default Delta multiplier of 2 for calculating the difference between HMAs, allowing traders to adjust the sensitivity of the analysis based on the time frame being analyzed.
Trend Reversal Signals: When the price crosses the thresholds defined by the percentage change index, buy or sell signals are triggered, based on the detection of a potential trend reversal.
Visual Cues with Boxes: Boxes are drawn on the chart when the HullMA crosses the reflected HMA value, providing a visual aid to identify critical moments where risk should be evaluated.
Alerts for Receiving Signals:
This script allows you to set up buy and sell alerts via TradingView's alert system. These alerts are triggered when trend changes are detected based on the conditions coded in the script. Traders can receive instant notifications, allowing them to make decisions without needing to constantly monitor the chart.
Additional Considerations:
The percentage change parameter is adjustable and should be configured based on the time frame you are trading on. For longer time frames, it's advisable to use a larger percentage change to avoid false signals.
The use of Hull Moving Averages (HMA) provides a faster and more reactive approach to trend evaluation compared to other moving averages, making it a powerful tool for traders seeking quick reversal signals.
This approach combines the power of Hull Moving Averages with an alert system to improve the trader’s response to trend changes.

Este script, titulado "Reflected EMA Difference (RED)", está fundamentado en la lógica de evaluar el porcentaje de acercamiento y distancia entre dos medias móviles, específicamente las medias móviles de Hull (HMA), para tomar decisiones sobre el valor del precio. El creador de la media móvil de Hull, Alan Hull, diseñó este indicador para ofrecer una forma más rápida y precisa de analizar tendencias de mercado, y en este script se utiliza su concepto como base para medir y reflejar las variaciones de precio.
Descripción del funcionamiento:
Medias Móviles de Hull (HMA): Se utilizan dos HMAs, una de corto plazo y otra de largo plazo. La idea principal es calcular la diferencia Delta entre estas dos medias móviles, que representa cuánto se están alejando o acercando entre sí. Esta diferencia es clave para identificar cambios potenciales en la tendencia del mercado.
Valor Reflejado de la HMA: Con la diferencia Delta calculada entre las HMAs, se refleja el valor de la HMA corta, creando un punto de referencia visual que ayuda a los traders a observar la relación entre el precio y las HMAs en el gráfico.
Índice de Cambio de Porcentaje: El segundo parámetro clave del script es el índice de cambio porcentual. Este define el momento en que una tendencia está revirtiendo, permitiendo establecer órdenes de compra o venta en función de un cambio significativo en la relación entre las HMAs y el precio.
Multiplicador Delta: El script tiene un multiplicador predeterminado de 2 para el cálculo de la diferencia Delta, lo que permite ajustar la sensibilidad del análisis según la temporalidad del gráfico.
Señales de Reversión de Tendencia: Cuando el precio cruza los límites definidos por el índice de cambio porcentual, se emiten señales para comprar o vender, basadas en la detección de una posible reversión de tendencia.
Visualización con Cajas: Se dibujan cajas en el gráfico cuando el indicador HullMA cruza el valor reflejado de la HMA, ayudando a identificar visualmente los momentos críticos en los que se debe evaluar el riesgo de las operaciones.
Alertas para Recibir Señales:
Este script permite configurar alertas de compra y venta desde el apartado de alertas de TradingView. Estas alertas se activan cuando se detectan cambios de tendencia en función de las condiciones establecidas en el código. El trader puede recibir notificaciones instantáneas, lo que facilita la toma de decisiones sin necesidad de estar constantemente observando el gráfico.
Consideraciones adicionales:
El porcentaje de cambio es un parámetro ajustable y debe configurarse según la temporalidad que se esté operando. En temporalidades más largas, es recomendable usar un porcentaje de cambio mayor para evitar señales falsas.
La utilización de las medias móviles de Hull (HMA) proporciona un enfoque más rápido y reactivo para evaluar tendencias en comparación con otras medias móviles, lo que lo convierte en una herramienta poderosa para traders que buscan señales rápidas de reversión.
Este enfoque combina la potencia de las medias móviles de Hull con un sistema de alertas que mejora la reactividad a cambios de tendencia.

Strategy Description for Publishing: Nifty Scalping 3 Minutes Options on Dhan
Overview:
The Nifty Scalping 3 Minutes Options on Dhan strategy is an enhanced version tailored for trading Nifty Options, building on the core logic used in the previously published Nifty Scalping 3 Minutes Strategy. This strategy provides automated order execution via JSON alerts for seamless integration with the Dhan platform, enabling hands-free options trading.
This system is designed to capture short-term market moves using a combination of technical indicators like the Jurik Moving Average (JMA), Exponential Moving Average (EMA), and Bollinger Bands, while also allowing traders to manage risk effectively with custom inputs for maximum loss per lot and partial profit booking.
For more details on the core logic and performance of the strategy, please refer to our earlier published strategy:
Nifty Scalping 3 Minutes Strategy
Key Features:
JMA and EMA Crossovers: Trades are executed when the Jurik Moving Average (JMA) crosses over (for long trades) or under (for short trades) the Exponential Moving Average (EMA), signaling trend direction.
Price-Volume Spike Detection: Ensures that trades are executed only when significant market activity is detected, avoiding low-momentum conditions. Price-volume relationships are monitored to confirm the strength of market movements.
Bollinger Band Noise Filter: Filters out low-volatility periods by executing trades only when prices break through the upper or lower Bollinger Bands, confirming high volatility.
Customizable Risk Management: Traders can set their own maximum risk per lot (e.g., ₹650), and the strategy adjusts the stop-loss accordingly to ensure that no trade exceeds this threshold.
Partial Profit Booking: A predefined percentage (e.g., 60%) of the position can be booked as profit once the first profit target is reached, with the remaining position trailed using an ATR-based stop.
STBT/BTST Support: The strategy offers the flexibility to carry trades overnight, supporting Sell Today, Buy Tomorrow (STBT) and Buy Today, Sell Tomorrow (BTST).
Time-Based Exit: The strategy automatically closes any open positions by 3:20 PM to avoid the volatile end-of-day market conditions.
Inputs for Traders:
Option Quantity: Select the number of contracts to trade (e.g., 10).
Maximum Risk Per Lot: Set your maximum allowable loss per lot (e.g., ₹650), ensuring that your risk is managed effectively.
Partial Profit Booking Percentage: Define what percentage of your position to book as profit (e.g., 60%) when the first target is hit.
STBT/BTST Option: Choose whether to allow positions to be carried overnight.
Alert Secret Key: Input your secret key for the Dhan platform to trigger automated orders via JSON alerts.
Option Expiry Date: Specify the expiry date for the options being traded.
Trade Logic:
Long Trades: Triggered when JMA crosses above EMA, supported by filters like price-volume spikes and Bollinger Band breakouts. The strategy waits for momentum confirmation before entering long trades, with stop-loss and profit-taking mechanisms in place.
Short Trades: Triggered when JMA crosses below EMA, with confirmation through additional filters to ensure strong market trends before entering short positions.
Risk Management:
Stop-Loss: A dynamic stop-loss is placed for each trade based on the trader's maximum risk per lot. The stop-loss adapts to market conditions using ATR trailing stops to capture further gains as the trade progresses.
Partial Profit Booking: Once the first profit target is hit (2.1x risk for long trades and 2.5x risk for short trades), a percentage of the position is booked as profit, and the remainder is trailed using an ATR stop.
Automation via JSON Alerts:This strategy sends automated JSON alerts to the Dhan platform for seamless execution of orders. The alerts support multi-leg orders for both entry and exit, ensuring that trades are executed efficiently without manual intervention.
Why Use This Strategy?
The Nifty Scalping 3 Minutes Options on Dhan strategy is perfect for traders who want to capitalize on quick market moves in options, backed by strong risk management and automation. With automated alerts, customizable inputs, and advanced technical filters, this strategy is ideal for traders looking to engage in high-probability options trades with minimal effort.

Webhook Starter Kit [HullBuster]
Introduction
This is an open source strategy which provides a framework for webhook enabled projects. It is designed to work out-of-the-box on any instrument triggering on an intraday bar interval. This is a full featured script with an emphasis on actual trading at a brokerage through the TradingView alert mechanism and without requiring browser plugins.
The source code is written in a self documenting style with clearly defined sections. The sections “communicate” with each other through state variables making it easy for the strategy to evolve and improve. This is an excellent place for Pine Language beginners to start their strategy building journey. The script exhibits many Pine Language features which will certainly ad power to your script building abilities.
This script employs a basic trend follow strategy utilizing a forward pyramiding technique. Trend detection is implemented through the use of two higher time frame series. The market entry setup is a Simple Moving Average crossover. Positions exit by passing through conditional take profit logic. The script creates ten indicators including a Zscore oscillator to measure support and resistance levels. The indicator parameters are exposed through 47 strategy inputs segregated into seven sections. All of the inputs are equipped with detailed tool tips to help you get started.
To improve the transition from simulation to execution, strategy.entry and strategy.exit calls show enhanced message text with embedded keywords that are combined with the TradingView placeholders at alert time. Thereby, enabling a single JSON message to generate multiple execution events. This is genius stuff from the Pine Language development team. Really excellent work!
This document provides a sample alert message that can be applied to this script with relatively little modification. Without altering the code, the strategy inputs can alter the behavior to generate thousands of orders or simply a few dozen. It can be applied to crypto, stocks or forex instruments. A good way to look at this script is as a webhook lab that can aid in the development of your own endpoint processor, impress your co-workers and have hours of fun.
By no means is a webhook required or even necessary to benefit from this script. The setups, exits, trend detection, pyramids and DCA algorithms can be easily replaced with more sophisticated versions. The modular design of the script logic allows you to incrementally learn and advance this script into a functional trading system that you can be proud of.
Design
This is a trend following strategy that enters long above the trend line and short below. There are five trend lines that are visible by default but can be turned off in Section 7. Identified, in frequency order, as follows:
1. - EMA in the chart time frame. Intended to track price pressure. Configured in Section 3.
2. - ALMA in the higher time frame specified in Section 2 Signal Line Period.
3. - Linear Regression in the higher time frame specified in Section 2 Signal Line Period.
4. - Linear Regression in the higher time frame specified in Section 2 Signal Line Period.
5. - DEMA in the higher time frame specified in Section 2 Trend Line Period.
The Blue, Green and Orange lines are signal lines are on the same time frame. The time frame selected should be at least five times greater than the chart time frame. The Purple line represents the trend line for which prices above the line suggest a rising market and prices below a falling market. The time frame selected for the trend should be at least five times greater than the signal lines.
Three oscillators are created as follows:
1. Stochastic - In the chart time frame. Used to enter forward pyramids.
2. Stochastic - In the Trend period. Used to detect exit conditions.
3. Zscore - In the Signal period. Used to detect exit conditions.
The Stochastics are configured identically other than the time frame. The period is set in Section 2.
Two Simple Moving Averages provide the trade entry conditions in the form of a crossover. Crossing up is a long entry and down is a short. This is in fact the same setup you get when you select a basic strategy from the Pine editor. The crossovers are configured in Section 3. You can see where the crosses are occurring by enabling Show Entry Regions in Section 7.
The script has the capacity for pyramids and DCA. Forward pyramids are enabled by setting the Pyramid properties tab with a non zero value. In this case add on trades will enter the market on dips above the position open price. This process will continue until the trade exits. Downward pyramids are available in Crypto and Range mode only. In this case add on trades are placed below the entry price in the drawdown space until the stop is hit. To enable downward pyramids set the Pyramid Minimum Span In Section 1 to a non zero value.
This implementation of Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) triggers off consecutive losses. Each loss in a run increments a sequence number. The position size is increased as a multiple of this sequence. When the position eventually closes at a profit the sequence is reset. DCA is enabled by setting the Maximum DCA Increments In Section 1 to a non zero value.
It should be noted that the pyramid and DCA features are implemented using a rudimentary design and as such do not perform with the precision of my invite only scripts. They are intended as a feature to stress test your webhook endpoint. As is, you will need to buttress the logic for it to be part of an automated trading system. It is for this reason that I did not apply a Martingale algorithm to this pyramid implementation. But, hey, it’s an open source script so there is plenty of room for learning and your own experimentation.
How does it work
The overall behavior of the script is governed by the Trading Mode selection in Section 1. It is the very first input so you should think about what behavior you intend for this strategy at the onset of the configuration. As previously discussed, this script is designed to be a trend follower. The trend being defined as where the purple line is predominately heading. In BiDir mode, SMA crossovers above the purple line will open long positions and crosses below the line will open short. If pyramiding is enabled add on trades will accumulate on dips above the entry price. The value applied to the Minimum Profit input in Section 1 establishes the threshold for a profitable exit. This is not a hard number exit. The conditional exit logic must be satisfied in order to permit the trade to close. This is where the effort put into the indicator calibration is realized. There are four ways the trade can exit at a profit:
1. Natural exit. When the blue line crosses the green line the trade will close. For a long position the blue line must cross under the green line (downward). For a short the blue must cross over the green (upward).
2. Alma / Linear Regression event. The distance the blue line is from the green and the relative speed the cross is experiencing determines this event. The activation thresholds are set in Section 6 and relies on the period and length set in Section 2. A long position will exit on an upward thrust which exceeds the activation threshold. A short will exit on a downward thrust.
3. Exponential event. The distance the yellow line is from the blue and the relative speed the cross is experiencing determines this event. The activation thresholds are set in Section 3 and relies on the period and length set in the same section.
4. Stochastic event. The purple line stochastic is used to measure overbought and over sold levels with regard to position exits. Signal line positions combined with a reading over 80 signals a long profit exit. Similarly, readings below 20 signal a short profit exit.
Another, optional, way to exit a position is by Bale Out. You can enable this feature in Section 1. This is a handy way to reduce the risk when carrying a large pyramid stack. Instead of waiting for the entire position to recover we exit early (bale out) as soon as the profit value has doubled.
There are lots of ways to implement a bale out but the method I used here provides a succinct example. Feel free to improve on it if you like. To see where the Bale Outs occur, enable Show Bale Outs in Section 7. Red labels are rendered below each exit point on the chart.
There are seven selectable Trading Modes available from the drop down in Section 1:
1. Long - Uses the strategy.risk.allow_entry_in to execute long only trades. You will still see shorts on the chart.
2. Short - Uses the strategy.risk.allow_entry_in to execute short only trades. You will still see long trades on the chart.
3. BiDir - This mode is for margin trading with a stop. If a long position was initiated above the trend line and the price has now fallen below the trend, the position will be reversed after the stop is hit. Forward pyramiding is available in this mode if you set the Pyramiding value in the Properties tab. DCA can also be activated.
4. Flip Flop - This is a bidirectional trading mode that automatically reverses on a trend line crossover. This is distinctively different from BiDir since you will get a reversal even without a stop which is advantageous in non-margin trading.
5. Crypto - This mode is for crypto trading where you are buying the coins outright. In this case you likely want to accumulate coins on a crash. Especially, when all the news outlets are talking about the end of Bitcoin and you see nice deep valleys on the chart. Certainly, under these conditions, the market will be well below the purple line. No margin so you can’t go short. Downward pyramids are enabled for Crypto mode when two conditions are met. First the Pyramiding value in the Properties tab must be non zero. Second the Pyramid Minimum Span in Section 1 must be non zero.
6. Range - This is a counter trend trading mode. Longs are entered below the purple trend line and shorts above. Useful when you want to test your webhook in a market where the trend line is bisecting the signal line series. Remember that this strategy is a trend follower. It’s going to get chopped out in a range bound market. By turning on the Range mode you will at least see profitable trades while stuck in the range. However, when the market eventually picks a direction, this mode will sustain losses. This range trading mode is a rudimentary implementation that will need a lot of improvement if you want to create a reliable switch hitter (trend/range combo).
7. No Trade. Useful when setting up the trend lines and the entry and exit is not important.
Once in the trade, long or short, the script tests the exit condition on every bar. If not a profitable exit then it checks if a pyramid is required. As mentioned earlier, the entry setups are quite primitive. Although they can easily be replaced by more sophisticated algorithms, what I really wanted to show is the diminished role of the position entry in the overall life of the trade. Professional traders spend much more time on the management of the trade beyond the market entry. While your trade entry is important, you can get in almost anywhere and still land a profitable exit.
If DCA is enabled, the size of the position will increase in response to consecutive losses. The number of times the position can increase is limited by the number set in Maximum DCA Increments of Section 1. Once the position breaks the losing streak the trade size will return the default quantity set in the Properties tab. It should be noted that the Initial Capital amount set in the Properties tab does not affect the simulation in the same way as a real account. In reality, running out of money will certainly halt trading. In fact, your account would be frozen long before the last penny was committed to a trade. On the other hand, TradingView will keep running the simulation until the current bar even if your funds have been technically depleted.
Entry and exit use the strategy.entry and strategy.exit calls respectfully. The alert_message parameter has special keywords that the endpoint expects to properly calculate position size and message sequence. The alert message will embed these keywords in the JSON object through the {{strategy.order.alert_message}} placeholder. You should use whatever keywords are expected from the endpoint you intend to webhook in to.
Webhook Integration
The TradingView alerts dialog provides a way to connect your script to an external system which could actually execute your trade. This is a fantastic feature that enables you to separate the data feed and technical analysis from the execution and reporting systems. Using this feature it is possible to create a fully automated trading system entirely on the cloud. Of course, there is some work to get it all going in a reliable fashion. Being a strategy type script place holders such as {{strategy.position_size}} can be embedded in the alert message text. There are more than 10 variables which can write internal script values into the message for delivery to the specified endpoint.
Entry and exit use the strategy.entry and strategy.exit calls respectfully. The alert_message parameter has special keywords that my endpoint expects to properly calculate position size and message sequence. The alert message will embed these keywords in the JSON object through the {{strategy.order.alert_message}} placeholder. You should use whatever keywords are expected from the endpoint you intend to webhook in to.
Here is an excerpt of the fields I use in my webhook signal:
"broker_id": "kraken",
"account_id": "XXX XXXX XXXX XXXX",
"symbol_id": "XMRUSD",
"action": "{{strategy.order.action}}",
"strategy": "{{strategy.order.id}}",
"lots": "{{strategy.order.contracts}}",
"price": "{{strategy.order.price}}",
"comment": "{{strategy.order.alert_message}}",
"timestamp": "{{time}}"
Though TradingView does a great job in dispatching your alert this feature does come with a few idiosyncrasies. Namely, a single transaction call in your script may cause multiple transmissions to the endpoint. If you are using placeholders each message describes part of the transaction sequence. A good example is closing a pyramid stack. Although the script makes a single strategy.close() call, the endpoint actually receives a close message for each pyramid trade. The broker, on the other hand, only requires a single close. The incongruity of this situation is exacerbated by the possibility of messages being received out of sequence. Depending on the type of order designated in the message, a close or a reversal. This could have a disastrous effect on your live account. This broker simulator has no idea what is actually going on at your real account. Its just doing the job of running the simulation and sending out the computed results. If your TradingView simulation falls out of alignment with the actual trading account lots of really bad things could happen. Like your script thinks your are currently long but the account is actually short. Reversals from this point forward will always be wrong with no one the wiser. Human intervention will be required to restore congruence. But how does anyone find out this is occurring? In closed systems engineering this is known as entropy. In practice your webhook logic should be robust enough to detect these conditions. Be generous with the placeholder usage and give the webhook code plenty of information to compare states. Both issuer and receiver. Don’t blindly commit incoming signals without verifying system integrity.
Setup
The following steps provide a very brief set of instructions that will get you started on your first configuration. After you’ve gone through the process a couple of times, you won’t need these anymore. It’s really a simple script after all. I have several example configurations that I used to create the performance charts shown. I can share them with you if you like. Of course, if you’ve modified the code then these steps are probably obsolete.
There are 47 inputs divided into seven sections. For the most part, the configuration process is designed to flow from top to bottom. Handy, tool tips are available on every field to help get you through the initial setup.
Step 1. Input the Base Currency and Order Size in the Properties tab. Set the Pyramiding value to zero.
Step 2. Select the Trading Mode you intend to test with from the drop down in Section 1. I usually select No Trade until I’ve setup all of the trend lines, profit and stop levels.
Step 3. Put in your Minimum Profit and Stop Loss in the first section. This is in pips or currency basis points (chart right side scale). Remember that the profit is taken as a conditional exit not a fixed limit. The actual profit taken will almost always be greater than the amount specified. The stop loss, on the other hand, is indeed a hard number which is executed by the TradingView broker simulator when the threshold is breached.
Step 4. Apply the appropriate value to the Tick Scalar field in Section 1. This value is used to remove the pipette from the price. You can enable the Summary Report in Section 7 to see the TradingView minimum tick size of the current chart.
Step 5. Apply the appropriate Price Normalizer value in Section 1. This value is used to normalize the instrument price for differential calculations. Basically, we want to increase the magnitude to significant digits to make the numbers more meaningful in comparisons. Though I have used many normalization techniques, I have always found this method to provide a simple and lightweight solution for less demanding applications. Most of the time the default value will be sufficient. The Tick Scalar and Price Normalizer value work together within a single calculation so changing either will affect all delta result values.
Step 6. Turn on the trend line plots in Section 7. Then configure Section 2. Try to get the plots to show you what’s really happening not what you want to happen. The most important is the purple trend line. Select an interval and length that seem to identify where prices tend to go during non-consolidation periods. Remember that a natural exit is when the blue crosses the green line.
Step 7. Enable Show Event Regions in Section 7. Then adjust Section 6. Blue background fills are spikes and red fills are plunging prices. These measurements should be hard to come by so you should see relatively few fills on the chart if you’ve set this up as intended. Section 6 includes the Zscore oscillator the state of which combines with the signal lines to detect statistically significant price movement. The Zscore is a zero based calculation with positive and negative magnitude readings. You want to input a reasonably large number slightly below the maximum amplitude seen on the chart. Both rise and fall inputs are entered as a positive real number. You can easily use my code to create a separate indicator if you want to see it in action. The default value is sufficient for most configurations.
Step 8. Turn off Show Event Regions and enable Show Entry Regions in Section 7. Then adjust Section 3. This section contains two parts. The entry setup crossovers and EMA events. Adjust the crossovers first. That is the Fast Cross Length and Slow Cross Length. The frequency of your trades will be shown as blue and red fills. There should be a lot. Then turn off Show Event Regions and enable Display EMA Peaks. Adjust all the fields that have the word EMA. This is actually the yellow line on the chart. The blue and red fills should show much less than the crossovers but more than event fills shown in Step 7.
Step 9. Change the Trading Mode to BiDir if you selected No Trades previously. Look on the chart and see where the trades are occurring. Make adjustments to the Minimum Profit and Stop Offset in Section 1 if necessary. Wider profits and stops reduce the trade frequency.
Step 10. Go to Section 4 and 5 and make fine tuning adjustments to the long and short side.

In this configuration we are trading in long only mode and have enabled downward pyramiding. The purple trend line is based on the day (1440) period. The length is set at 90 days so it’s going to take a while for the trend line to alter course should this symbol decide to node dive for a prolonged amount of time. Your trades will still go long under those circumstances. Since downward accumulation is enabled, your position size will grow on the way down.
The performance example is Bitcoin so we assume the trader is buying coins outright. That being the case we don’t need a stop since we will never receive a margin call. New buy signals will be generated when the price exceeds the magnitude and speed defined by the Event Net Change and Rate of Change.

It's aimed at BTCUSDT pair and 4h timeframe.
STRATEGY DEFAULT SETTINGS EXPLANATION
max_bars_back=5000 : This is a random number of bars so that the strategy test lasts for one or two years
calc_on_order_fills=false : To wait for the 4h closing is too much. Try to check if it's worth entering a position after closing one. I finally decided not to recheck if it's worth entering after an order is closed. So it is false.
calc_on_every_tick=false
pyramiding=0 : We only want one entry allowed in the same direction. And we don't want the order to scale by error.
initial_capital=1000 : These are 1000 USDT. By using 1% maximum loss per trade and 7% as a default stop loss by using 1000 USDT at 12000 USDT per BTC price you would entry with around 142 USDT which are converted into: 0.010 BTC . The maximum number of decimal for contracts on this BTCUSDT market is 3 decimals. E.g. the minimum might be: 0.001 BTC . So, this minimal 1000 amount ensures us not to entry with less than 0.001 entries which might have happened when using 100 USDT as an initial capital.
slippage=1 : Binance BTCUSDT mintick is: 0.01. Binance slippage: 0.1 % (Let's assume). TV has an integer slippage. It does not have a percentage based slippage. If we assume a 1000 initial capital, the recommended equity is 142 which at 11996 USDT per BTC price means: 0.011 BTC. The 0.1% slippage of: 0.011 BTC would be: 0.000011 . This is way smaller than the mintick. So our slippage is going to be 1. E.g. 1 (slippage) * 0.01 (mintick)
commission_type=strategy.commission.percent and commission_value=0.1 : According to: binance . com / en / fee / schedule in VIP 0 level both maker and taker fees are: 0.1 %.
BACKGROUND
Jaime Merino is a well known Youtuber focused on crypto trading
His channel TradingLatino
features monday to friday videos where he explains his strategy.
JAIME MERINO STANCE ON BOTS
Jaime Merino stance on bots (taken from memory out of a 2020 June video from him):
'~
You know. They can program you a bot and it might work.
But, there are some special situations that the bot would not be able to handle.
And, I, as a human, I would handle it. And the bot wouldn't do it.
~'
My long term target with this strategy script is add as many
special situations as I can to the script
so that it can match Jaime Merino behaviour even in non normal circumstances.
My alternate target is learn Pine script
and enjoy programming with it.
WARNING
This script might be bigger than other TradingView scripts.
However, please, do not be confused because the current status is beta.
This script has not been tested with real money.
This is NOT an official strategy from Jaime Merino.

FEEDBACK
Please check the strategy source code for more detailed information
where, among others, I explain all of the substrats
and if they are implemented or not.
Q1. Did I understand wrong any of the Jaime substrats (which I have implemented)?
Q2. The strategy yields quite profit when we should long (EMA10 from 1d timeframe is higher than EMA55 from 1d timeframe.
Why the strategy yields much less profit when we should short (EMA10 from 1d timeframe is lower than EMA55 from 1d timeframe)?
Any idea if you need to do something else rather than just reverse what Jaime does when longing?
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
FAQ1. Why are you giving this strategy for free?
TradingLatino and his fellow enthusiasts taught me this strategy. Now I'm giving back to them.
FAQ2. Seriously! Why are you giving this strategy for free?
I'm confident his strategy might be improved a lot. By keeping it to myself I would avoid other people contributions to improve it.
Now that everyone can contribute this is a win-win.
FAQ3. How can I connect this strategy to my Exchange account?
It seems that you can attach alerts to strategies.
You might want to combine it with a paying account which enable Webhook URLs to work.
I don't know how all of this works right now so I cannot give you advice on it.
You will have to do your own research on this subject. But, be careful. Automating trades, if not done properly,
might end on you automating losses.
FAQ4. I have just found that this strategy by default gives more than 3.97% of 'maximum series of losses'. That's unacceptable according to my risk management policy.
You might want to reduce default stop loss setting from 7% to something like 5% till you are ok with the 'maximum series of losses'.
FAQ5. Where can I learn more about your work on this strategy?
Check the source code. You might find unused strategies. Either because there's not a substantial increases on earnings. Or maybe because they have not been implemented yet.
FAQ6. How much leverage is applied in this strategy?
No leverage.
FAQ7. Any difference with original Jaime Merino strategy?
Most of the times Jaime defines an stop loss at the price entry. That's not the case here. The default stop loss is 7% (but, don't be confused it only means losing 1% of your investment thanks to risk management). There's also a trailing take profit that triggers at 2% profit with a 1% trailing.
FAQ8. Why this strategy return is so small?
The strategy should be improved a lot. And, well, backtesting in this platform is not guaranteed to return theoric results comparable to real-life returns. That's why I'm personally forward testing this strategy to verify it.

Cyatophilum H.A. Swing [BACKTEST]Hi guys, to celebrate the beginning of a new altcoins cycle, I created a Swing trade Indicator. (It's a joke, there will not be any altcoins cycle)
Cyatophilum Heikin Ashi Swing
This indicator will allow us to create one strategy for each pair and never miss those big swings ever again!
HOW BEAT BUY & HOLD WORKS
This kind of strategy is a safe long term investment , usually played in high timeframes such as 4H, 1D etc.
It is perfect for beginners in trading as the process is very simple: buy and sell when you receive the alert. The high timeframes allows to trade manually by receiving alerts on your phone or email, but you also can automate it if you prefer.
The primary goal of these strategies is to increase your capital faster than someone simply holding the asset .
The trades are made with no leverage and 100% equity . It is for those who want to grow their portfolio fast without risking to lose everything. You can use several strategies at once, in this case split your equity accordingly.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The Heikin Ashi candles are very usefull. This strategy is built upon H.A. candles but is used on normal candles, because H.A. candles price are an average of real candles and we want to know the real price. I did the trick by recalculating the H.A. open, high, low and close with the original formula based on the real candles's ohlc. This allows me to use the strategy tester and backtest with real results.
HOW TO USE
Creating a signal is as simple as adding the indicator called to your chart and click "Set alert". Select "Once per bar close" for your alert options.
There are 3 alerts:
- BUY
- SELL
- BUY OR SELL (for free TV users)
Sample Backtest results
Bitcoin/Dollar
Ethereum/Bitcoin
Basic Attention Token/Bitcoin

Note: This version is the BACKTEST. You can find the Alert version in my profile scripts.

Buy call - When the 9EMA crosses above the 21EMA or RSI level-20 is reached in 15min-Chart.
Sell call -When 9EMA crosses below the 21EMA or RSI level-70 is reached in 15min-Chart.
Above values of EMA's and RSI are default values , which can be changed easily in settings panel of Strategy script.
Alert Script allows you to add Alerts when these buy/sell calls are made.
To create a Buy call alert:
1> Click on the create alert icon in your chart (top-centre)
2>Click on Condition -drop down button and select EMAcross_rsi_Alerts
3>Below that bar you will see another bar titled "Buy"-click on its drop down menu and select "Crossing Down"
4>Below that bar right next to Value change 0 to 0.9.
5>Set expiration date for your alerts as per your wish
6>Ensure "Show Popup" and "Play sound" is checked
7>You can check option of sending the alert to your email also.
Finally click on create.
To create Sell Alert:
Repeat same process, except that, after step 2- Do this- change the "long" option to "short" by clicking on the drop down menu right next to the first bar.
Click on create, Finally both of your automated buy/sell call alerts will be configured.
I know its been 2-3 days since i tweeted about this strategy and now i am making it available, you can understand i had to put in a lot of working hours, towards creating the source code for the strategy script and then for alerts script and even more so towards finding the perfect default settings which can be used straight away by anyone, even if you are new in crypto trading, apart from the time which i dedicate to analyse charts and pass on the knowledge/info to you all.
My next post will be even more helpful to you people as i am currently testing "fully automated trading" yea you heard that right!! - This system will trade 24x7 for you guys/girls no matter wherever you are either you are sleeping or watching a movie, your trades would still be getting executed with a proper entery-exit plan on a crypto exchange.

3Commas Multicoin Scalper PRO [SwissAlgo]Introduction
Are you tired of tracking dozens of cryptocurrency charts and placing orders manually on your Exchange?
The 3Commas Multicoin Scalper PRO is an automated trading system designed to simultaneously identify and execute potential trading setups on multiple cryptocurrencies on your preferred Exchange (Binance, Bybit, OKX, Gate.io, Bitget) via 3Commas integration.
It analyzes price action, volume, momentum, volatility, and trend patterns across 180+ USDT Perpetual coins divided into 17 crypto categories , providing real-time signals directly to your 3Commas bots for automated trade execution. This indicator aims to identify potential trend-following and contrarian setups in both bull and bear markets.
-------------------------------------
What it Does
The 3Commas Multicoin Scalper PRO is a technical analysis tool that monitors multiple cryptocurrency pairs simultaneously and connects with 3Commas for signal delivery and execution.
Here's how the strategy works:
🔶 Technical Analysis : Analyzes price action, volume, momentum, volatility, and trend patterns across multiple USDT Perpetual Futures contracts simultaneously.
🔶 Pattern Detection : Identifies specific candle patterns and technical confluences that suggest potential trading setups across all USDT.P contracts of the selected categories
🔶 Signal Generation : When technical criteria are met at bar close, the indicator creates deal-start signals for the relevant pairs.
🔶 3Commas Integration : Packages these signals and delivers them to 3Commas through TradingView alerts, allowing 3Commas bots to receive specific pair information ('Deal-Start' signals).
🔶 Category Management : Each TradingView alert monitors an entire category (approximately 11 pairs), allowing selective activation of different crypto categories.
🔶 Visual Feedback : Provides color-coded candles and backgrounds to visualize technical conditions, with optional pivot points and trend visualization.
Candle types:
Signals:
-------------------------------------
Quick Start Guide
1. Setup 3Commas Bots : Configure two DCA bots in 3Commas (All USDT pairs) - one for LONG positions and one for SHORT positions.
2. Define Trading Parameters : Set your budget for each trade and adjust your preferred sensitivity within the indicator settings.
3. Create Category Alerts : Set up one TradingView alert for each crypto category you want to trade.
That's it! Once configured, the system automatically sends signals to your 3Commas bots when predefined trading setups are detected across coins in your selected/activated categories. The indicator scans all coins at bar close (for example, every hour on the 1H timeframe) and triggers trade execution only for those showing technical confluences.
Important : The more categories you activate by setting TradingView alerts, the more signals your 3Commas bots will receive. Consider your total capital when enabling multiple categories. More details about the setup process are provided below (see paragraph "Detailed Setup & Configuration")
-------------------------------------
Built-in Backtesting
The 3Commas Multicoin Scalper PRO includes backtesting visualization for each coin. When viewing any USDT Perpetual pair on your chart, you can visualize how the strategy would have performed historically on that specific asset.
Color-coded candles and signal markers show past trading setups, helping you evaluate which coins responded best to the strategy. This built-in backtesting capability can support your selection of assets/categories to trade before deploying real capital.
As backtesting results are hypothetical and do not guarantee future performance, your research and analysis are essential for selecting the crypto categories/coins to trade.
The default strategy settings are: Start Capital 1.000$, leverage 25X, Commissions 0.1% (average Taker Fee on Exchanges for average users), Order Amount 200$ for Longs/150$ for Shorts, Slippage 4
-------------------------------------
Key Features
🔶 Multi-Exchange Support : Compatible with BINANCE, BYBIT, BITGET, GATEIO, and OKX USDT Perpetual markets (USDT.P)
🔶 Wide Asset Coverage : Simultaneously analyzes 180+ cryptocurrencies across 17 specialized crypto categories
🔶 Custom Category Option : Create your watchlist with up to 10 custom USDT Perpetual pairs
🔶 3Commas Integration : Seamlessly connects with 3Commas bots to automate trade entries and exits
🔶 Dual Strategy Approach : Identifies both "trend following" and "contrarian" potential setups
🔶 Confluence-Based Signals : Uses a combination of multiple technical factors - price spikes, price momentum, volume spikes, volume momentum, trend analysis, and volatility spikes - to generate potential trading setups
🔶 Risk Management : Adjustable sensitivity/risk levels, leverage settings, and budget allocation for each trade
🔶 Visual Indicators : Color-coded candles and trading signals provide visual feedback on market conditions
🔶 Trend Indication : Background colors showing ongoing uptrends/downtrends
🔶 Pivot Points & Daily Open : Optional display of pivot points and daily open price for additional context
🔶 Liquidity Analysis : Optional display of high/low liquidity timeframes throughout the trading week
🔶 Trade Control : Configurable limit for the maximum number of signals sent to 3Commas for execution (per bar close and category)

Methodology
The 3Commas Multicoin Scalper PRO utilizes a multi-faceted approach to identify potential trading setups:
1. Price Action Analysis : Detects abnormal price movements by comparing the current candle's range to historical averages and standard deviations, helping identify potential "pump and dump" scenarios or new-trends start
2. Price Momentum : Evaluates the relative strength of bullish vs. bearish price movements over time, indicating the build-up of buying or selling pressure.
3. Volume Analysis: Identifies unusual volume spikes by comparing current volume to historical averages, signaling strong market interest in a particular direction.
4. Volume Momentum : Measures the ratio of bullish to bearish volume, revealing the dominance of buyers or sellers over time.
5. Trend Analysis : Combines EMA slopes, RSI, and Stochastic RSI to determine overall trend direction and strength.
6. Volatility : Monitors the ATR (Average True Range) to detect periods of increased market volatility, which may indicate potential breakouts or reversals
7. Candle Wick Analysis : Evaluates upper and lower wick percentages to detect potential rejection patterns and reversals.
8. Pivot Point Analysis : Uses pivot points (PP, R1-R3, S1-S3) for identifying key support/resistance areas and potential breakout/breakdown levels.
9. Daily Open Reference: Analyzes price action relative to the daily open for potential setups related to price movement vs. the opening price
10. Market Timing/Liquidity : Evaluates high/low liquidity periods, specific days/times of heightened risk, and potential market manipulation timeframes.
11. Boost Factors : Applies additional weight to certain confluence patterns to adjust global scores
These factors are combined into a "Global Score" ranging from -1 to +1 , applied at bar close to the newly formed candles.
Scores above predefined thresholds (configurable via the Sensitivity Settings) indicate strong bullish or bearish conditions and trigger signals based on predefined patterns. The indicator then applies additional filters to generate specific "Trend Following" and "Contrarian" trading signals. The identified signals are packaged and sent to 3Commas for execution.

FAQs
General Questions
❓ Q: What is Global Score? A: The Global Score serves as a foundation for signal generation. When a candle's score exceeds certain thresholds (defined by your Risk Level setting), it becomes a candidate for signal generation. However, not all high-scoring candles generate trading signals - the indicator applies additional pattern recognition and contextual filters. For example, a strongly positive score (lime candle) in an established uptrend may trigger a "Trend Following" signal, while a strongly negative score (red candle) in a downtrend might generate a "Trend Following Short" signal. Similarly, contrarian signals are generated when specific reversal patterns occur alongside appropriate Global Score values, often involving wick analysis and pivot point interactions. This multi-layer approach helps filter out false positives and identify higher-probability trading setups.
❓ Q: What's the difference between "Trend following" and "Contrarian" signals in the script? A: "Trend Following" signals follow the identified trends while "Contrarian" signals anticipate potential trend reversals.
❓ Q: Why can't I configure all the parameters? A: We've designed the solution to be plug-and-play to prevent users from getting lost in endless configurations. The preset values have been tested against their trade-offs in terms of financial performance, average trade duration, and risk levels.
❓ Q: Why don't I see any signals on my chart? A: Make sure you're viewing a USDT Perpetual pair from your selected exchange that belongs to the crypto category you've chosen to analyze. For example, if you've selected the "Top Major Coins" category with Binance as your exchange, you need to view a chart of one of those specific pairs (like BINANCE:BTCUSDT.P) to see signals. If you switch exchanges, for example from Binance to Bybit, you need to pull a Bybit pair on the chart to see backtesting data and signals.
❓ Q: Does this indicator guarantee profits? A: No. Trading cryptocurrencies involves significant risk, and past performance is not indicative of future results. This indicator is a tool to help you identify potential trading setups, but it does not and cannot guarantee profits.
❓ Q: Does this indicator repaint or use lookahead bias? A: No. All trading signals generated by this indicator are based only on completed price data and do not repaint. The system is designed to ensure that backtesting results reflect as closely as possible what you should experience in live trading.
While reference levels like pivot points are kept stable throughout the day using lookahead on, the actual buy and sell signals are calculated using only historical data (lookahead off) that would have been available at that moment in time. This ensures reliability and consistency between backtesting and real-time trading performance.
Technical Setup
❓ Q: What exchanges are supported? A: The strategy supports BINANCE, BYBIT, BITGET, GATEIO, and OKX USDT Perpetual markets (i.e. all the Exchanges you can connect to your 3Commas account for USDT Perpetual trading, excluding Coinbase Perpetual that offers UDSC pairs, instead of USDT).
❓ Q: What timeframe should I use? A: The indicator is optimized for the 1-hour (1H) timeframe but may run on any timeframe.
❓ Q: How many coins can I trade at once? A: You can trade all coins within each selected category (up to 11 coins per category in standard categories). You can activate multiple categories by setting up multiple alerts.
❓ Q: How many alerts do I need to set up? A: You need to set up one alert for each crypto category you want to trade. For example, if you want to trade both the "Top Major Coins" and the "DeFi" categories, you'll need to create two separate alerts, one for each category. We recommend starting with one category, testing the results carefully, monitoring performance daily, and perhaps activating additional categories in a second stage.
❓ Q: Are there any specific risk management features built into the indicator? A: Yes, the indicator includes risk management features: adjustable maximum trades per hour/category, the ability to enable/disable long or short signals depending on market conditions, customizable trade size for both long and short positions, and different sensitivity/risk level settings.
❓ Q: What happens if 3Commas can't execute a signal? A: If 3Commas cannot execute a signal (due to insufficient funds, bot offline, etc.), the trade will be skipped. The indicator will continue sending signals for other valid setups, but it doesn't retry failed signals.
❓ Q: Can I run this indicator on multiple charts at once? A: Yes, but it's not necessary. The indicator analyzes all coins in your selected categories regardless of which chart you apply it to. For optimal resource usage, apply it to a single chart of a USDT Perpetual pair from your selected exchange. To stop trading a category delete the alert created for that category.
❓ Q: How frequently does the indicator scan for new signals? A: The indicator scans all coins in your selected categories at the close of each bar (every hour if you selected the 1H timeframe).
3Commas Integration
❓ Q: Do I need a 3Commas account? A: Yes, a 3Commas account with active DCA bots (both LONG and SHORT) is required for automated trade execution. A paid subscription is needed, as multipair Bots and multiple simultaneous deals are involved.
❓ Q: How do I set the leverage? A: Set the leverage identically in both the indicator settings and your 3Commas DCA bots (the max supported leverage is 50x). Always be careful about leverage, as it amplifies both profits and losses.
❓ Q: Where do I find my 3Commas Bot IDs and Email Token? A: Open your 3Commas DCA bot and scroll to the "Messages" section. You'll find the Bot ID and Email Token within any message (e.g., "Start Deal").
Display Settings
❓ Q: What does the Sensitivity setting do? A: It adjusts the sensitivity of signal generation. "Default" provides a balanced approach with moderate signal frequency. "Aggressive" lowers the thresholds for signal generation, potentially increasing trade frequency but may include more noise. "Test Mode" is the most sensitive setting, useful for testing alert configurations but not recommended for live trading. Higher risk levels may generate more signals but with potentially lower average quality, while lower risk levels produce fewer but potentially better signals.
❓ Q: What does "Show fired alerts" do? A: The "Show fired alerts" option displays a label on your chart showing which signals have been fired and sent to 3Commas during the most recent candle closes. This visual indicator helps you confirm that your alerts are working properly and shows which coins from your selected category have triggered signals. It's useful when setting up and testing the system, allowing you to verify that signals are being sent to 3Commas as expected and their frequency over time.
❓ Q: What does "Show coin/token metrics" do? A: This toggle displays detailed technical metrics for the specific coin/token currently shown on your chart. When enabled, it shows statistics for the last closed candle for that coin.
❓ Q: What does "Show most liquid days/times" do? A: This toggle displays color-coded background highlighting to indicate periods of varying market liquidity throughout the trading week. Green backgrounds show generally higher liquidity periods (typically weekday trading hours), yellow highlights potentially manipulative periods (often Sunday/Monday overnight), and gray indicates low liquidity periods (when major markets are closed or during late hours).

About The PSE
This engine accepts entry and exit signals from your indicator to provide trade signals for both long and short positions. The PSE was written for trading Funds (e.g. ETF’s), Stocks, Forex, Futures, and Cryptocurrencies. The trades on the chart indicate market, limit, and stop orders. The PSE allows for backtesting of trades along with metrics of performance based on trade-groups with many great features.
Note: A link to a video of how to connect your indicator(s) to the PSE is provided below.
Key Features
Trade-Grp’s
A Trade-Grp makes up one or more trade positions from the first position entering to the last position exiting. Using Trade-Grp’s instead of positions should help you better assess if the metric results fit your trading style.
Below are two (2) examples of a Trade-Grp with three (3) positions.
Metrics
A table of metrics is available if the “Show Metrics Table” checkbox is enabled on the Inputs tab, but metrics always show in the Data Window.
Examples of the Metrics Table are shown below.
• ROI (Return on Investment) and CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) are based on the Avg Invest/Trade-Grp and are adjusted for dividends if the “Include Dividends in Profit” checkbox is enabled.
• Profit/Risked is based on Trade-Grp’s. Also known as reward/risk, as well as expectancy per amount risked. It determines the effectiveness of your strategy and provides a measure of comparison between your strategies. This is adjusted for dividends if the “Include Dividends in Profit” checkbox is enabled. In the Data Window the color is green when above the breakeven point of making a profit and red when below the breakeven point. In the Table the color is red if below the breakeven point, otherwise it is the default color. For example, using the 3 metrics tables above:
For every USD risked the profit is 1.709 USD.
For every BTC risked the profit is 0.832 BTC.
For every JPY risked the profit is 0.261 JPY.
• Winning % is based on Trade-Grp’s. In the Data Window the color is green when above the breakeven point of making a profit and red when below the breakeven point. In the Table the color is red if below the breakeven point, otherwise it is the default color.
The breakeven point is a relationship between the Profit/Risked and Winning % to indicate system profitability potential. Another way to assess trading system performance. For example, for a low Winning % a high Profit/Risked is needed for the system to be potentially profitable.
• Profit Factor (PF) is based on Trade-Grp’s. The dividend payment, if any, is not considered in the calculation of a win or loss. The “Include Dividends in Profit Factor” checkbox allows you the option to either include or not include dividends in the calculation of Profit Factor. The default is enabled.
Must enable the “Include Dividends in Profit” checkbox to include dividends in PF.
Including dividends in PF evaluates the trading strategy with a more overall profitability performance view.
Enable/Disable “Include Dividends in Profit Factor” checkbox also affects the Avg Trade-Grp Loss, and thus Equity Loss from ECL and % Equity Loss from ECL.
• Max Consecutive Losses are based on Trade-Grp’s.
• Nbr of Trade-Grp’s and Nbr of Positions.
These help you to determine if enough trades have occurred to validate your strategy. The Nbr of Positions is the count of positions on the chart. The TV list of trades in the Strategy Tester may indicate more than what is actually shown on the chart. The Data Window includes 'Nbr Strat Tester Trades', which equals the TV listing trades, to help you locate specific trades on the chart.
• Time in Market (%) is based on Trade-Grp’s and date range selected.
• Avg Invest/Trade-Grp will indicate the average amount of money invested in a Trade-Grp. This is adjusted for dividends if the “Include Dividends in Profit” checkbox is enabled.
• Equivalent Consecutive Losses, labeled as Equiv. Cons. Losses (ECL).
This value is determined by the Winning % and Nbr of Trade-Grp’s. This simulates the more likely case of a series of losses, then a small win, then another series of losses to form an equivalent consecutive losing streak. To lower the value, increase the Winning %.
• Equity Loss from ECL is the equity loss from the equivalent consecutive losses.
• % Equity Loss from ECL is the percent of equity loss from the equivalent consecutive losses.
Risk Management
• Pyramid rules enforce and maintain position sizing designated by you on the Inputs tab (% Equity to Risk, Up/Dwn Gap) & Properties tab (number of pyramids, slippage, and commission).
A pyramid position will not occur unless both its stop covers the last entry price with gap/slippage and commission cost of previous trade is covered. If take profit is enabled, a pyramid position will not occur unless commission cost of the trade is covered when take profit target is reached.
• Position sizing, stop-loss (SL), trailing stop-loss (TSL), and take profit (TP) are used.
• Wash sale prevention for applicable assets is enforced. Wash sale assets include stock and fund (e.g. ETF’s).
• No more than one entry position per candle is enforced .
Other Great Features
• Losing Trade-Grp’s indicated at the exit with label text in the color blue. Used to easily find consecutive losses affecting your strategy’s performance. The dividend payment, if any, is not considered in the calculation of a win or loss.
• Position values can be displayed on the chart. The number format is based on the min tick value, but is limited to 8 decimal places only for display purposes.
• Dividends per share and the amount can be displayed on the chart.
• Hold Days . This is the number of days to hold before allowing the next Trade-Grp. Can be a decimal number. This feature may help those trading on a cash account to avoid any settlement violations when trading the same asset.
• Date Filter. Partition the time when trading is allowed to see if the strategy works well across the date range selected. The metrics should be acceptable across all four (4) time ranges: entire range, 1st half, IQR (inter-quartile range), and 2nd half.
• Price gap amount identification. Used in determining if a pyramid entry may be profitable, and may be used in determining slippage amount to use.
• When TP is enabled, the PSE will only allow a pyramid position if the potential is profitable based on commission and price gap selected.
• Trade-Grp’s shown in background color: green for long positions and red for short positions.
• The PSE will alert you to update your stop-loss as the market changes if your exchange/broker does not allow for trailing stop-loss orders. Enable this option on the Inputs tab with Alert Chg TSL.
• The PSE will alert you if your drawdown exceeds Max % Equity Drawdown set on the Inputs tab.
• The PSE will send an alert to warn you of an expiring GTC order.
Some brokers will indicate the order is GTC, Good 'Till Cancelled, but there really is a time limit on the order and is typically 60-120 days. Therefore, the PSE will alert you if you've been in position for close to 60 days so you can refresh your order. The alert is typically a few days before the 60-day time period.
• For order fill alerts just use a {{placeholder}} in the Message of the alert. Details on how to enter placeholders is explained below.
• Identify same bar enter/exit for first entries and pyramids. This is shown in the Data Window as well. This can help you determine what stop-loss % works best for your trading style.
• Leverage trading information is displayed in the Data Window and applies to Trade-Grps.
Failed PosSize or Margin (%): Shows a zero if the failed-to-trade position size was less than 1 or shows the margin % which failed to meet the margin requirement set in the Properties tab. A flag will show on the bar where a failed-to-trade occurred. This is only applicable to the first position of a Trade-Grp. Position the cursor over the flag for the value to show in the Data Window.
Notional Value: total Trade-Grp position size x latest entry price x point value. The equity must be > notional value x margin requirement for a trade to occur.
Current Margin (%): must be greater than margin requirement set on the Properties tab in order for a trade to occur.
Margin Call Price: when enabled on the Style tab is displayed on both the chart and the Data Window as shown below.
PSE Settings
Pyramids
• Pyramiding requires the Stop Method to be set to either TSL or Both (meaning SL & TSL).
• The maximum number of pyramids is determined by the value entered in the Properties tab.
• Pyramid orders require the enter price to be higher than the previous close for Longs and lower than the previous close for Shorts.
• Pyramids also require the stop with gap/slippage to be higher than the last entry price for Longs, and lower than the last entry price for Shorts. This covers all previous positions and maintains position sizing.
• When take profit, TP, is enabled, the pyramids also require that they will be profitable when opening a position assuming they will reach TP. This is automatically adjusted by you with the Dwn Gap/Up Gap, Slippage, and Commission settings.
Inputs Tab
General Settings
Color Traded Background
Enable to change background color where in a trade. Green for long positions and red for short positions.
Show Losing Trade-Grp
Enable to show if losing Trade-Grp and is indicated by text in blue color. The last position may be at a loss, but if there was profit for the Trade-Grp, then it will not be shown as a loss .
Show Position Values
Enable to show the currency value of each position in gold color.
Include Dividends in Profit
This feature is only applicable if the asset pays dividends and the time frame period of the chart is 1D or less, otherwise ignored. The PSE assumes dividends are taken as cash and not reinvested.
Enable to adjust ROI, CAGR, Profit/Risked, Avg Invest/Trade-Grp, and Equity to include dividend payments. This feature considers if you were in position at least one day prior to the ex-dividend date and had not exited until after the ex-dividend date.
When Show Dividends is enabled it will display the payout in currency/share, as well as the total amount based on the number of shares the position(s) of the Trade-Grp are currently holding.
Include Dividends in Profit Factor
This checkbox allows you the option to either include or not include dividends in the calculation of Profit Factor. Must enable the “Include Dividends in Profit” checkbox to include dividends in PF. The dividend payment, if any, is not considered in the calculation of a win or loss.
Show Metrics Table
Options are font size and table location.
Alert Failed to Trade
Enable for the strategy to alert you when a trade did not happen due to low equity or low order size. Applicable only for the first position of a Trade-Grp.
Trade Direction
Options are 'Longs Only', 'Both', 'Shorts Only'.
Hold Days
This is the number of days to hold before allowing the next Trade-Grp. Applies only to the first trade position of a Trade-Grp. Where a Trade-Grp consists of the first position plus any pyramid positions.
The value entered will be overwritten to >= 31 to prevent wash sale for applicable assets in the event the last Trade-Grp was a loss. Wash sale assets include stock and fund (i.e. ETF’s).
The minimum value is the equivalent of 1 candle and is automatically assigned by the PSE if the entered value is equivalent to less than one candle. To calculate Hold Days in # of candles on the Hour chart divide the chart period by 24 x #candles. On the Minute chart divide the chart period by 60 then by 24 x #candles.
Show Vertical Lines at From Date & To Date
Shows a vertical dotted line at the From Date and To Date for visual inspection of the setting.
Date Filter
When enabled, trades are allowed between the From Date and To Date, i.e., the date range.
When disabled, trades are allowed for all candles.
Partition the time when trading is allowed to see if your indicator settings work well across the date range. Click 1st Half, IQR (inter-quartile range), or 2nd Half buttons to trade a portion of the date range.
Select only one at-a-time to partition the time when trading is allowed.
When 1st Half is enabled only trades for the 1st half of the date range are allowed.
When IQR is enabled only trades for the inter-quartile date range are allowed.
When 2nd Half is enabled only trades for the 2nd half of the date range are allowed.
Position Sizing
The % of Equity to Risk has been separated into two (2) areas: for initial trades and for pyramid trades. This allows for greater ability to maximize profits within your acceptable drawdown. A variation of the Anti-Martingale method from the initial trade if you choose to use it in that manner.
% Equity to Risk for Initial Trades: enter the percent of equity you want to risk per position for the initial trades of each Trade-Grp. For example, for 1% enter 1.
% Equity to Risk for Pyramid Trades: enter the percent of equity you want to risk per position for the pyramid trades of each Trade-Grp. For example, for 2% enter 2.
% Equity for Max Position Size: the position size will not exceed this amount. For example, for 25% enter 25.
Max % Equity Drawdown Warning: an alert will be triggered if the maximum drawdown exceeds this v alue. For example, for 10% enter 10.
Stop Methods
NOTE: The Stop Method must be either Both or TSL in order for the pyramids to work. This feature enforces position sizing.
Stop-loss, SL, and trailing stop-loss, TSL, are other features that enforce risk management.
The trailing stop-loss, TSL, is activated immediately if Stop Method = TSL. If Stop Method = Both, then the TSL is activated when its value is above stop-loss, SL, for Longs and below the SL for Shorts.
The calculated TSL value (shown on the chart by + symbol) of the previous bar is used for the current bar and the plot value is off by default, but you can it turn on via the Style tab. This is available so you can better understand how the TSL value used was calculated from. It is beneficial to show when monitoring the real-time candle.
Alert Chg TSL
When enabled, this feature will alert you to update your stop price if it moves greater than the change amount in %. The amount is the absolute % so will work for both Longs and Shorts. For example, for 1% enter 1 . This is provided since some exchanges/brokers do not offer TSL orders and you must manually adjust as price action plays out.
The alert will also suggest a stop limit price based on the gap selected and explained below.
The alert will occur at the close of the candle at the calculated TSL value of the candle just prior to the real-time candle.
Dwn Gap/Up Gap Input Settings
A price gap is the difference between the closing price of the previous candle and the opening price of the current candle. Dwn Gap and Up Gap are illustrated here.
The values of the Dwn Gap and Up Gap can be seen in the Data Window and are based on the settings of the Date Filter.
The options are “zero gap”, "median gap", "avg gap", "80 pct gap", "90 pct gap". The X pct gap stands for X percentile rank. For example, "80 pct gap" means that 80% of the gaps are less than or equal to the value shown in the Data Window. Select “zero gap” to disable this feature.
If Show Stop Limit is enabled, it will show a dotted-line below or above the current stop price where a stop-limit order should be taken. It is shown based on the gap option selected. Again, the PSE trades market, limit, and stop orders, but a stop-limit may be shown if you wanted to see where one would be set using the Up/Dwn Gap.
Dwn Gap: Affects Short Take Profit, Long Pyramid Entries, and to show the Long Stop Limit.
Up Gap : Affects Long Take Profit, Short Pyramid Entries, and to show the Short Stop Limit.
Fixed Take Profit (TP)
When take profit (TP) is enabled, the PSE will determine if opening a pyramid position will be in profit assuming the TP will be hit while considering commission costs (on Properties tab).
The larger of Up Gap or Slippage value is used with Long positions regarding TP.
The larger of Dwn Gap or Slippage value is used with Short positions regarding TP.
Properties Tab
• Initial Capital: Set as desired.
• Base Currency: Leave as Default. The PSE is designed to use the instrument’s currency, therefore leave as Default.
• Order Size: Leave as default. This setting has been disabled and position sizing is handled on the Inputs tab and is based on % of equity.
• Pyramiding: Set as desired.
• Commission: Set as number %. The PSE is designed to only work with commission as a percent of the position value.
• Verify Price for Limit Orders: Set as desired.
Slippage
Adjust Slippage on the Properties tab to account for a realistic bid-ask spread. You can use one of Dwn/Up Gap values or other guidelines. Again, the Dwn/Up Gap values are based on the Date Filter input settings.
Heed warnings from the TradingView Pine Script™ manual about values entered into the Slippage field.
The Slippage (ticks) have a noticeable influence on entry price and exit price especially at the beginning when the date range includes prices from $0.01 to $100,000.00 like that for BTC-USD INDEX. When this is the case, it is best to use different slippage values when partitioning time with the Date Filter.
To minimize the effects of slippage, yet account for it select ‘median gap’ on the Input Tab and use that value for slippage on the Properties tab.
The slippage value is included in the placeholder {{strategy.order.price}}.
Leverage Trading
The PSE is designed to be used both without leverage (the default) and with leverage.
These two settings apply to Trade-Grps. For example, for 5x leverage enter 20 (1/5x100=20).
Margin for Long Positions: Set as desired. The default is 100%.
Margin for Short Positions: Set as desired. The default is 100%.
This setting on the Inputs tab applies to each trade position within a Trade-Grp.
Max % Equity per Position: Set as desired. The default is 20% and intended for non-leverage trading. For leverage trading set as desired. For example, for 3x leverage enter 300 (3x100=300).
Recalculate After Order Is Filled
The PSE uses the strategy parameter calc_on_order_fills=true to allow for enter/exit on the same bar and generate alerts immediately after an order is filled. This parameter is on the Properties tab and is named ‘Recalculate After order is filled’ and is enabled by default.
Disabling this feature will cause the PSE to not work as intended.
You will see the following Caution! on the TV Strategy Tester
This occurs because the PSE has the strategy parameter calc_on_order_fills = true.
Again, the PSE will only work as intended if this parameter is enabled and set to true.
Therefore, you can close the caution sign and be confident of receiving realistic results.
Recalculate On every tick: Disable.
Fill Orders
• Using bar magnifier: Set as desired.
• On Bar Close: Disable. The PSE will not work as intended if this is enabled.
• Using Standard OHLC: Set as desired.
Using The Alert Message Box From TV Strategy Alert
Set alerts to gain access to all the alerts from PSE. This allows for both order filled alerts, as well as the alert function calls related to refresh GTC orders, drawdown exceeded, update stop-loss order, and Failed to Trade.
Example Message for Manual Trading Alerts
(This is just an example. Consult TV manual for possible placeholders to use.)
{
Alert for {{plot("position_for_alert")}} position. (long = 1; short = -1)

{{strategy.order.action}} Equity x Equity_Multiplier USD in shares at price = {{strategy.order.price}},
where Equity_Multiplier = {{strategy.order.contracts}} x {{strategy.order.price}} / {{plot("Equity")}}
or {{strategy.order.action}} {{strategy.order.contracts}} shares at price = {{strategy.order.price}}.
}
Note: Use the Equity x Equity_Multiplier method if you have several accounts with different initial capital.
Example Message for Bot Trading Alerts
(You must consult your specific bot for configuring the alert message. This is just an example.)

Skeleton Key LiteSkeleton Key Lite Strategy
Note : Every input, except for the API Alerts, depends on an external indicator to provide the necessary values for the strategy to function.
Definitions
Strategy Direction: The trading direction (long or short) as determined by an external source, such as an indicator.
Threshold Conditions:
- Enter Condition: Defines the condition for entering a trade.
- Exit Condition: Defines the condition for exiting a trade.
Stop Loss (SL):
- Trail SL: A trailing stop loss, dynamically updated during the trade.
- Basic SL: A static stop loss level.
- Emergency SL (ER SL): A fallback stop loss for extreme conditions.
- Max SL: The maximum risk tolerance in stop loss.
- Limit SL: A predefined stop loss that is executed as a limit order.
Take Profit (TP):
- Max TP: The maximum profit target for a trade.
- Limit TP: A predefined take profit level executed as a limit order.
API Alerts:
- API Entry: JSON-based configuration for sending entry signals.
- API Exit: JSON-based configuration for sending exit signals.
Broad Concept
The Skeleton Key Lite strategy script is designed to provide a generalized framework for orchestrating trade execution based on external indicators. It allows QuantAlchemy and others to encapsulate strategies into indicators, which can then be backtested and automated using this strategy script.
Inputs
Note : All inputs are dependent on external indicators for values except for the API Alerts.
Strategy Direction:
- Source: Direction signal from an external indicator.
- Options: `LONG` (`1`), `SHORT` (`-1`).
Trade Conditions:
- Enter: Source input, trigger for entry condition.
- Exit: Source input, trigger for exit condition.
Stops and Take Profits:
- Trail SL: Enable/disable dynamic trailing stop loss.
- Basic SL: Enable/disable static stop loss.
- Emergency SL: Enable/disable emergency stop loss.
- Max SL: Enable/disable maximum risk stop loss.
- Max TP: Enable/disable maximum take profit.
- Limit SL: Enable/disable predefined stop loss executed as a limit order.
- Limit TP: Enable/disable predefined take profit executed as a limit order.
Alerts:
- API Entry: Configurable JSON message for entry signals.
- API Exit: Configurable JSON message for exit signals.
How It Works
Trade Logic:
- Conditions for entering and exiting trades are evaluated based on the selected input sources.
Stop Loss and Take Profit Management:
- Multiple stop loss types (trailing, basic, emergency, etc.) and take profit levels are calculated dynamically during the trade entry. Trailing stop loss is updated during the trade based on the selected input.
API Alerts:
- Alerts are triggered using customizable JSON messages, which can be integrated with external trading systems or APIs.
Trade Execution:
- Enter: Initiates a new trade if entry conditions are met and there is no open position.
- Exit: Closes all trades if exit conditions are met or stop loss/take profit thresholds are hit.
Key Features
Customizable: Fully configurable entry and exit conditions based on external indicators.
Encapsulation: Integrates seamlessly with indicators, allowing strategies to be developed as indicator-based signals.
Comprehensive Risk Management:
- Multiple stop loss and take profit options.
- Emergency stop loss for unexpected conditions.
API Integration: Alerts are designed to interface with external systems for automation and monitoring.
Plots
The script plots key variables on the chart for better visualization:
Enter and Exit Signals:
- `enter`: Displays when the entry condition is triggered.
- `exit`: Displays when the exit condition is triggered.
Risk Management Levels:
- `trailSL`: Current trailing stop loss level.
- `basicSL`: Static stop loss level.
- `erSL`: Emergency stop loss level.
- `maxSL`: Maximum risk stop loss level.
Profit Management Levels:
- `maxTP`: Maximum take profit level.
- `limitTP`: Limit-based take profit level.
Limit Orders:
- `limitSL`: Limit-based stop loss level.
- `limitTP`: Limit-based take profit level.
Proposed Interpretations
Entry and Exit Points:
- Use the plotted signals (`enter`, `exit`) to analyze the trade entry and exit points visually.
Risk and Profit Levels:
- Monitor the stop loss (`SL`) and take profit (`TP`) levels to assess trade performance.
Dynamic Trail SL:
- Observe the `trailSL` to evaluate how the trailing stop adapts during the trade.
Limitations
Dependence on Indicators:
- This script relies on external indicators to provide signals for strategy execution.
No Indicator Included:
- Users must integrate an appropriate indicator for source inputs.
Back-Test Constraints:
- Back-testing results depend on the accuracy and design of the integrated indicators.
Final Thoughts
The Skeleton Key Lite strategy by QuantAlchemy provides a robust framework for automated trading by leveraging indicator-based signals. Its flexibility and comprehensive risk management make it a valuable tool for traders seeking to implement and backtest custom strategies.

[Opening Range Breakout] S&R Strategy with Backtest (TSO) S&R Strategy with Backtest (TSO)
===========================================================================
===========================================================================
This indicator serves as a comprehensive full-cycle trading system, providing alerts at each stage of the trade, from opening to closure. The algorithm initiates by calculating the Opening/Pre-Market Price Range, waiting for a breakout to generate signals, and establishing TP (Take Profit and SL (Stop Loss) levels. The Opening/Pre-Market range, known for its robust support and resistance levels, is a key element. To filter out false breakouts and capture valid ones, the indicator incorporates a Smart Breakout feature, requiring confirmation through an initial breakout, a confirmation bounce, and a subsequent confirmation breakout. The indicator offers a variety of automated approaches for TP (Take-Profit) and SL (Stop-Loss) settings. These include leveraging opening range levels, both the most recent and historical S&R (Support and Resistance) levels, and an ATR (Average True Range) trailing stop-loss. This diverse set of tools ensure flexibility in tailoring TP (Take-Profit) and SL (Stop-Loss) parameters to different market conditions, contributing to a more adaptive and robust trading system. Additionally, a series of signal analysis tools, including candle bar analysis, divergence, and volume, enhance the precision of trading signals.
* Works with popular timeframes: 1M, 3M, 5M, 15M, 30M, 45M, 1H.
* Works best with Indices, Stocks, and Commodities, since there is pre-market price movement, which is used to obtain support and resistance price range.
* Every action of the trade is calculated on a confirmed closed candle bar state (barstate.isconfirmed), so the indicator will never repaint.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Strategy Config: ORB_AAPL(NASDAQ)_15M
Example of Signal Cleanup confirmations via SMA and ATR. Take-Profit is calculated per optimal S&R (resistance) most recent levels.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Strategy Config: ORB_AMD(NASDAQ)_5M
Example of optimal S&R (resistance) level from previous day for Take-Profit 1 target, which gets hit.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Strategy Config: ORB_META(NASDAQ)_5M
Example of dynamic SL (Stop-Loss), which reduces the risk by moving to the new support level, which is at the same time is below the current price. Also Signal Cleanup confirmations via SMA, ATR and VWAP

Strategy Config: ORB_MSFT(NASDAQ)_15M
Example of automated ATR Trail Stop-Loss activation at no optimal S&R (support) feature.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Strategy Config: ORB_NFLX(NASDAQ)_3M
Example of a skipped LONG trade due to no optimal S&R (support) for Stop-Loss (can be seen per chart that it would be a loss trade). On another side, a SHORT SMA Confirmed trade hits all 3 profit targets.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Strategy Config: ORB_NVDA(NASDAQ)_15M
Example of no optimal support for SHORT Take-Profit targets, with ATR Trail Stop-Loss.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Strategy Config: ORB_SPY(AMEX)_15M
Example of several signal confirmations at the same time (SMA, VWAP, EWO) and S&R-TP-Entry-SL SL (Stop-Loss) system, which at trade open sets SL (Stop-Loss) per optimal S&R (since this is a LONG trade - support) and then moves to Entry at first take-profit.

>>> Opening Range - Time Period (ET): Opening/Pre-Market Range time, which by default is set to US Session Pre-Market Range, can be customized to any time range as there are different market hours around the world and this setting can be customized to any time. Pre-Market Time/Price Range Hours(ET) | Pre-Market EU/Asia Hours: 4:00-9:30 ET | Pre-Market US (NY) Hours: 7:00-9:30 ET | Post-Market US Hours: 16:00-19:00 ET | First US Market Hour: 9:30-10:30 ET | Power Hour: 15:00-16:00)
>>> Opening Range - Levels Structure: determines how the price range is calculated, based on the highest/lowest price zones or based on the candle body bar.
>>> Opening Range - Breakout System: "Simple": bar close price has to simply break the opening range level | "Smart": After initial breakout (which is basically 'Simple' Breakout), a price come back is expected to the opening range level, a bounce, then a confirmation breakout with price closing ahead of the initial breakout.
>>>>> Opening Range - Smart Breakout: # of bars until Initial Breakout becomes invalid
>>>>> Opening Range - Smart Breakout: Bounce Settings, "Cross-Return" - LONG: Price has to cross down the initial breakout S&R, but never close below it; SHORT: Price has to cross up the initial breakout S&R, but then close above it; ||| "Cross-Close-Return" - LONG: At least 1 candle has to close below initial breakout S&R; SHORT: At least 1 candle has to close above initial breakout S&R.
>>>>> Alerts - Opening Range - Smart Breakout: Confirmation Bounce Alert. Trigger an alert at confirmation bounce. This is for live trading (especially scalping) Smart Breakout approach - to get ready to open the trade in the correct direction.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TAKE-PROFIT/STOP-LOSS CONFIGURATION ///////////////////////////////////////
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>> TP (Take-Profit) and SL (Stop-Loss): S&R Search - Left Bars: This setting is for calculating optimal S&R (Support and Resistance) levels (in combination with below - Right Bars) for S&R (Support and Resistance) TP (Take-Profit) levels calculations. NOTE: if at any point - there will be no available S&R (Support & Resistance) found for SL (Stop-Loss, 'S&R-Dynamic-SL' or 'S&R-Static-SL' setting, since both settings search for optimal SL (Stop-Loss) at trade open) or TP (Take-Profit, at any setting, since at trade open, an optimal TP (Take-Profit) level is searched) > SL (Stop-Loss) will automatically switch to trailing ATR-Trailing-SL and the trade will continue to run until it either hits ATR-Trailing-SL (Stop-Loss) or closes at EOD (End of Day).
>>> TP (Take-Profit) and SL (Stop-Loss): S&R Search - Right Bars: This setting is for calculating optimal S&R (Support and Resistance) levels (in combination with above - Left Bars) for S&R (Support and Resistance) TP (Take-Profit) levels calculations. NOTE: if at any point - there will be no available S&R (Support & Resistance) found for SL (Stop-Loss, 'S&R-Dynamic-SL' or 'S&R-Static-SL' setting, since both settings search for optimal SL (Stop-Loss) at trade open) or TP (Take-Profit, at any setting, since at trade open, an optimal TP (Take-Profit) level is searched) > SL (Stop-Loss) will automatically switch to trailing ATR-Trailing-SL and the trade will continue to run until it either hits ATR-Trailing-SL (Stop-Loss) or closes at EOD (End of Day).
>>> TP (Take-Profit) and SL (Stop-Loss): S&R Search - Custom Resolution: This is a custom timeframe setting specifically for S&R Search, it disregards current chart timeframe. This is great to use for scalping, for example: with main chart set to 1min and the custom timeframe set to 3min or 5min - there will be stronger support/resistance levels with more detailed price action.
>>> TP (Take-Profit) and SL (Stop-Loss): # of Bars (5000 max) to search back for optimal Support and Resistance levels: This is how many candles will be searched backwards for previous S&Rs (Support and Resistance) to find the optimal levels for TP (Take-Profit) and SL (Stop-Loss). NOTE: If SL (Stop-Loss) System is set to 'ATR-Trailing-SL' - this setting is only relevant for searching TP (Take-Profit) levels.
>>> TP (Take-Profit) and SL (Stop-Loss): At Trade Open - No S&R (Support and Resistance) found behavior: 'Skip Trade': If at trade open there are no S&R (Support and Resistance) levels for TP1 (Take-Profit 1) or SL (Stop-Loss) - trade is skipped. 'Open/ATR-Trailing-SL': If at trade open there are no S&R (Support and Resistance) levels for TP1 (Take-Profit 1) or SL (Stop-Loss), the trade will still be open with SL (Stop-Loss) set to 'ATR-Trailing-SL'.
>>> TP (Take-Profit) System: Pre-Market-Range-TP: All TP (Take-Profit) targets are calculated at trade open using the distance between Support and Resistance per Opening Pre-market Range and then divided by TP (Take-Profit) Divider, which can be set below; S&R-Current-Optimal-TP1: TP1 (Take-Profit) level is set per currently available S&R (Support & Resistance), if none available - historical S&R (Support & Resistance) levels will be searched, remaining TP (Take-Profit) targets (if selected, up to 5 # of TPs) are searched through most recent closest historical S&R (Support & Resistance) levels; S&R-Historic-Optimal-TP1: TP1 (Take-Profit) level is set per historically most recent closest available S&R (Support & Resistance) to the Entry price, remaining TP (Take-Profit) targets (if selected, up to 5 # of TPs) are searched through historical S&R (Support & Resistance) levels as well.
>>> TP (Take-Profit, Pre-Market-Range-TP) Divider #: This is for 'Pre-Market-Range-TP' setting only, where TP (Take-Profit) level is the distance between top/bottom levels of the opening range. It can be reduced by the divider #. (1 - full distance; 2 - 1/2 distance; 3 - 1/3 distance; etc.
>>> TP (Take-Profit) # of targets: It is wise to divide the trade into several profit targets. With this setting - up to 5 TP (Take-Profit) targets can be approached. The trade will be equally divided up by the selected # of TP (Take-Profit) targets.
>>> TP (Take-Profit) target(s) Consumed: Signal Bar consuming Take-Profits - trade signal bar is big enough to 'consume'/close ahead of the first TP setting > the signal can either be skipped, or all Take-Profit targets pushed ahead by average bar size).
>>> TP (Take-Profit) Offset - On/Off: This is a feature where TP (Take-Profit) target will be considered taken even if the price never crosses the target(s), but comes close enough (based on the offset amount). Set the offset amount below.
>>>>> TP (Take-Profit) Offset - Amount: Some Examples: (for SPY 0.1 would be $0.10 offset - if TP1 is $400 and price hits $399.90 > TP1 considered taken/signal shown/alert) | NOTE: For EURUSD, it is very different and if wrong will show TP1 immediately at trade open, typical good offset for EURUSD is: 0.0005 | Similar for BTCUSD, for example: 10 - $10 offset, if TP is $15,000 > $14,990.
>>> SL (Stop-Loss) System: 'Pre-Market-Range-SL': SL (Stop-Loss) is set to the opposite market range level from trade direction; 'S&R-Static-SL': SL (Stop-Loss) is set at trade open per optimal most recent S&R level and remains there until trade closes; 'S&R-Dynamic-SL': SL (Stop-Loss) is set at a trade open per optimal S&R (Support and Resistance) level from the most recent AND historical S&Rs (Support and Resistance), with every bar closed it will check if there are new S&Rs (Support and Resistance) levels, if these levels appear closer to the current price then current level - it will move SL (Stop-Loss) to that level, therefore reducing the risk; 'ATR-Trailing-SL': SL (Stop-Loss) is trail-following the ATR (Average True Range) line, NOTE: If at signal trigger, ATR will be against the trade direction - trade open signal will be skipped; 'S&R-TP-Entry-SL': SL (Stop-Loss) initially is set per S&R, then moves to Entry price at the very first TP (Take-Profit) hit and remains there until trade closes; 'S&R-TP-Trail-SL': SL (Stop-Loss) initially is set per S&R, then moves to Entry at TP1 (Take-Profit 1) hit, then keeps trailing per previously taken profit targets (TP2 taken, SL moves to TP1 | TP3 taken, SL moves to TP2 | TP4 taken, SL moves to TP3). NOTE: 'ATR-Trailing-SL' will not switch automatically if 'S&R-Dynamic-SL', S&R-TP-Entry-SL', 'S&R-TP-Trail-SL' system is selected, as already the most optimal SL (Stop-Loss) level is calculated - it will switch automatically only with 'S&R-Static-SL' system.
>>> SL (Stop-Loss) - On/Off: Without SL (Stop-Loss), unless EOD (End of Day) Close is turned on - there will be no SL (Stop-Loss) at all!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
SIGNAL ANALYSIS AND CLEANUP ///////////////////////////////////////////////
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>> Signal Cleanup - Bar Color: Include Bar Color (bullish/bearish) confirmation, LONG signal will only be opened if signal bar is green/bullish, SHORT if red/bearish.

>>> Signal Cleanup - Bar Doji Skip: Skip doji (indecisive) candles signals.
>>> Signal Cleanup - EWO (Elliott Wave Oscillator): Include EWO (Elliott Wave Oscillator), LONG will only be opened if EWO is bullish / SHORT if EWO is bearish.
>>> Signal Cleanup - VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price): Include VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price), LONG will only be opened if price is above VWAP / SHORT if price is below VWAP.
>>> Signal Cleanup - MA (Moving Average) Confirmation: Include MA (Moving Average), LONG will only be opened if MA is bullish / SHORT if MA is bearish.
>>> Signal Cleanup - ATR (Average True Range): Include ATR (Average True Range) confirmation, LONG will only be opened if ATR is bullish / SHORT if ATR is bearish.
>>> Signal Cleanup - Divergence(RSI + MACD): Include Divergence (RSI + MACD ) confirmation, LONG will only be opened if Divergence is bullish / SHORT if Divergence is bearish.
>>> Signal Cleanup - Volume % Strength: Include Volume strength/percentage confirmation, LONG/SHORT will only be opened with strong Volume matching the signal direction | By default, strong Volume percentage is set to 150% and weak to 50%.
>>> Signal Cleanup - Volume Above Average: Include Volume Above Moving Average (Volume closing bar closes above volume moving average) confirmation, LONG/SHORT will only be opened with Volume above average - Volume closed bar color must match the closed price color (bullish/bearish direction) + Volume bar must be closed above volume MA line).

TP System - VERY IMPORTANT INFO!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"TP PERCENTAGE" - amount by which current trade/position needs to be reduced/partially closed/sold.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TP System: Dynamic
"TP PERCENTAGE" - will always be the same amount (trade/position size divided by the # of take-profit(TP) targets) and percentage to be closed will always be of the ORIGINAL trade/position.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TP System: Static
"TP PERCENTAGE" - will always be the same amount IF take-profit(TP) targets are hit 1-by-1 (TP1 > TP2 > TP3 > TP4 > TP5), otherwise it will vary and unless it is a 1st take-profit(TP1), the REMAINING trade/position size will always be smaller than original and therefore the percentage to be closed will always be of the REMAINING trade/position and NOT the original one!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"TP PERCENTAGE" CheatSheet (these are the only percentages you may see)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
TP PERCENTAGE---Close/Sell Amount-------------Example (trade size: 50 stocks)
20%-------------trade size * 0.2--------------50 * 0.2 = 10 stocks
25%-------------trade size * 0.25-------------50 * 0.25 = 12.5(~13) stocks
34%-------------trade size * 0.34-------------50 * 0.34 = 17 stocks
40%-------------trade size * 0.4--------------50 * 0.4 = 20 stocks
50%-------------trade size * 0.5--------------50 * 0.5 = 25 stocks
60%-------------trade size * 0.6--------------50 * 0.6 = 30 stocks
66%-------------trade size * 0.66-------------50 * 0.66 = 33 stocks
75%-------------trade size * 0.75-------------50 * 0.75 = 37.5(~38) stocks
80%-------------trade size * 0.8--------------50 * 0.8 = 40 stocks
100%------------trade size--------------------50 = 50 stocks

If for any reason a portion of the current/remaining trade closed at such occurrence was slightly wrong, it is not an issue. Such occurrences are rare and with slight difference in partial TP closed is not significant to overall performance of our algorithms.

Here is how a TP1 alert will look with 5 TPs breakdown of the trade.
NOTE1: Next to TP1 taken it will show at which price it was triggered.
NOTE2: Next to "TP Percentage" it shows how much of the CURRENT/ACTIVE/REMAINING trade needs to be closed.
NOTE2: If TP2/3/4/5 comes before TP1 - the alert will tell you exactly how many percent of the trade needs to be closed!

Adding Alerts in TradngView
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Add indicator to chart and make sure the correct strategy is configured (check Backtesting results)
-Right-click anywhere on the TradingView chart
-Click on Add alert
-Condition: Select this indicator by it’s name
-Immediately below, change it to "alert() function calls only", as other wise there will be 2 alerts for every alert!
-Expiration: Open-ended (that may require higher tier TradingView account, otherwise the alert will need to be occasionally re-triggered)
-Alert name: Whatever you desire
-Hit “Create”
-Note: If you change ANY Settings within the indicator – you must DELETE the current alert and create a new one per steps above, otherwise it will continue triggering alerts per old Settings!
===========================================================================
If you have any questions or issues with the indicator, please message me directly via TradingView.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Good Luck! (NOTE: Trading is very risky, past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results, so please trade responsibly!)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: There seems to be a strange glitch when strategy is running live, it will show "double-take" take-profits labels on the chart. This is not affecting the script logic and backtesting results, if you simply change the timeframe real quick to something else then back - it will no longer show the duplicate orders... this must be some sort of a glitch as every alert was thoroughly tested to make sure everything is working!
[Round Numbers] Signal Clean Up Analysis with Backtest (TSO)Round Numbers NEW GEN indicator!
===========================================================================
===========================================================================
This is a full-cycle trading system indicator - it will show and alert each step of the trade from open to close. The algorithm here uses Round Numbers for generating signals, TP (Take Profit) and SL (Stop Loss) levels. Round numbers play big role in trading and can easily become strong support and resistance levels where price can bounce and go the opposite way or go through with a very nice run afterwards.
In addition there is a chained (NOTE: You can select several or ALL of the features, this is not limited to either one) signal cleanup and analysis approach with scheduling and alerting capabilities. Works with most popular timeframes: 1M, 3M, 5M, 15M, 30M, 1H, 4H, D.
NOTE: Every action of the trade is calculated on a confirmed closed candle bar state (barstate.isconfirmed), so the indicator will never repaint!
NOTE: At position open - there will be calculated Take-Profit and Stop-Loss targets, however each target is considered hit, when candle bar closes breaking that target, so Take-Profit and Stop-Loss when hit will slightly differ then what you see at trade/position open.
===========================================================================
===========================================================================
Round Numbers up|down unit setting and overall explanation
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Round Number up|down unit: is the distance between round numbers on the chart. Since these round number levels are also used by the algorithm to open/close trades, it is important to set this setting to a logical number, which will correspond to an average price movement of the instrument.
Here are some examples for a few popular instruments on what will the default 1 round number unit correspond to and what would be suggested:
BTCUSD > $1 (this won't work for Bitcoin, try at least $100 - 100units)
SPY: > $1 (one of the best settings for SPY or QQQ, 50cents shows good results as well - 0.5units)
FOREX (all major pairs): > 10PIPs (that may be a bit small, unless scalping, try 50PIPs - 5units)

>>> Advanced Alerts setup, which can be potentially setup with a trading bot over TradingView Webhook (NOTE: This will require advanced programming knowledge).
===========================================================================
Labels, plots, colors explanations:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>>>> LONG open: green "house" looking arrow below candle bar.
>>>>> SHORT open: red "house" looking arrow above candle bar.
>>>>> LONG/SHORT take-profit target: green/red circles (multi-profit > TP2/3/4/5 smaller circles).
>>>>> LONG/SHORT stop-loss target: green/red + crosses.
>>>>> LONG/SHORT take-profit hits: green/red diamonds.
>>>>> LONG/SHORT stop-loss hits: green/red X-crosses.
>>>>> LONG/SHORT EOD (End of Day | Intraday style) close (profitable trade): green/red squares.
>>>>> LONG/SHORT EOD (End of Day | Intraday style) close (loss trade): green/red PLUS(+)-crosses.
===========================================================================
Date Range and Trading Schedule Settings
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>>>> Date Range: Select your start and/or end dates (uncheck “End” for indicator to show results up to the very moment and to use for LIVE trading) for backtesting results, if not using backtesting – uncheck “Start”/“End” to turn it off.
>>>>> Use TradingView “Strategy Tester” to see backtesting results
NOTE: If Strategy Tester does not show any results with Date Ranged fully unchecked, there may be an issue where a script opens a trade, but there is not enough TradingView power to set the Take-Profit and Stop-Loss and somehow an open trade gets stuck and never closes, so there are “no trades present”. In such case you will need to manually check “Start”/“End” dates or use “Depp Backtesting” feature!
>>>>> Trading Schedule: This is where you can setup Intraday Session or any custom session schedule you wish. Turn it ON. Select trading hours. Select EOD (End of Day) setting (NOTE: If it will be OFF, the indicator will assume you are holding your position open until next day!). Please note the EOD trade closure times with the 2 different Intraday close settings when turned on:
At Market Close:
1/3/5min > will close at 15:55pm ET
15min > will close at 15:45pm ET
30min > will close at 15:30pm ET
45min > will close at 15:45pm ET
60min > will close at 15:00pm ET
Before Power Hour:
1/3/5min > will close at 15:00pm ET
15min > will close at 15:00pm ET
30min > will close at 15:00pm ET
45min > will close at 15:00pm ET
60min > will close at 15:00pm ET
>>> Trading Systems: 1) "Open Until Closed by TP or SL": the signal will only open a trade if no trades are currently open/trunning, a trade can only be closed by Take Profit, Stop Loss or End of Day close (if turned on) | 2) "Open Until Closed by TP or SL + OCA": Same as 1), but if there is an opposite signal to the trade which is currently open > it will immediately be closed with new trade open or End of Day close (if turned on) | 3) "OCA (no TP or SL)": There are is Take Profit or Stop Loss, only an opposite signal will close current trade and open an opposite one or End of Day close (if turned on).
>>> Turn On/Off: Current Position SL + Opposite Position Open Signal on the same closing candle bar (If current trade hits Stop-Loss and at that same closing candle bar there is a signal for an opposite direction trade > indicator will close current position as Stop-Loss and immediately open an opposite position). NOTE: With this option turned on, there will be more trades, but not necessarily better results, since after Stop-Loss is hit, it may make sense to wait a little before opening an opposite trade, even if it matches the condition at the same time when Stop-Loss is hit, but sometimes it shows great results, so this setting/feature is included. NOTE: This setting only will work/make sense with TP and SL style/behavior both be set to "Fully Closed Candle"!
>>> Turn On/Off: Turn On/Off: Current Position REGULAR SL | Only the SL + Opposite Position Open will trigger if turned on, IF NOT - THERE WILL BE NO STOP-LOSS AT ALL!!! NOTE: It is very dangerous to trade without Stop-Loss!
>>>>> Signal Candle Bar consuming Take-Profits - position/trade signal candle bar is big enough to "consume"/close ahead the first TP setting > the signal can either be skipped, or all Take-Profit areas pushed ahead using smart formula)
>>>>> MULTIPROFIT | TP (Take-Profit) System: 1) Static – Once the trade is open, all Take-Profit target(s) are immediately calculated and set for the trade > once the target(s) is hit > trade will be partially closed (if candle bar closes beyond several Take-Profit targets > trade will be reduced accordingly to the amount of how many Take-Profit targets were hit) ||| 2) Dynamic – Once the trade is open, only the 1st Take-Profit target is calculated, once the 1st Take-Profit is hit > next Take-Profit distance is calculated based on the distance from trade Entry to where 1st Take-Profit was taken, once 2nd Take-Profit is taken > 3rd Take-Profit is calculated per same logic, these are good for price momentum as with price speeding up – profits increase as well!
>>>>> MULTIPROFIT: SL (stop loss) System | Static: SL is set at position open and remains such; Dynamic: Once ANY TP is taken > SL will be moved to Entry; Trailing: SL will be moved along the position (smart trailing stop-loss), at TP1 taken > SL moves to Entry, at TP2 taken > SL moves to TP1, at TP3 taken > SL moves to TP2 and so on.
>>>>> # of TPs (number of take profit targets): Just like it is named, this is where you select the number of Take-Profit targets for your trading system (NOTE: If "OCA (no TP or SL)" Trading System is selected, this setting won’t do anything, since there are no TP or SLs for that system).
>>>>> TP(s) offset: This is a special feature for all Take-Profit targets, where you can turn on a customizable offset, so that if the price is almost hitting the Take-Profit target, but never actually touches it > you will capture it. This is good to use with HHLL (Highest High Lowest Low), which is pretty much a Support/Resistance as often the price will nearly touch these strong areas and turn around…
===========================================================================
Dynamic/Static/Trailing Take-Profit and Stop-Loss visual examples:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) Fully Static Take-Profit and Stop-Loss
This one is a fully static setup for both Take-Profit and Stop-Loss, you can also observe how trade is closed right before the Power Hour (trade can be closed right before Power Hour or right before Market Closes or left overnight as desired).
2) Static/Dynamic, Static Take-Profit and Dynamic Stop-Loss
You can see a static Take-Profit set at position open, while Stop-Loss moves to Entry once TP1 target is taken.
3) Static/Trailing, Static Take-Profit and Trailing Stop-Loss
In here with each Take-Profit taken, Stop-Loss moves along the trade to previous Take-Profit level, you can notice how stop-loss literally follows the trade and reduces the potential loss.
4) Dynamic/Trailing, Dynamic Take-Profit and Trailing Stop-Loss
See how Take-Profit distances increase with price momentum. Just like in previous example - Trailing Stop-Loss is following the trade and reducing the riks.
===========================================================================
Signal Analysis and Cleanup Settings
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>>>> Candle Analysis | Candle Color signal confirmation: If closed candle bar color does not match the signal direction > no trade will be open.
>>>>> Candle Analysis | Skip opposite candle signals: If closed candle bar color will match the signal direction, but candle structure will be opposite (for example: bearish green hammer, long high stick on top of a small green square) > no trade will be open.
>>>>> Candle Analysis | Skip doji candle signals: If closed candle bar will be the uncertain doji > no trade will be open.
>>>>> Divergence/Oscillator Analysis | EWO (Elliot Wave Oscillator) signal confirmation: LONG will only be open if at signal, EWO is green or will be at bullish slope (you can select which setting you desire), SHORT if EWO is red or will be at bearish slope.
>>>>> Divergence/Oscillator Analysis | VWAP signal confirmation: LONG will only be open if at signal, the price will be above VWAP, SHORT if below.
>>>>> Divergence/Oscillator Analysis | Moving Average signal confirmation: LONG will only be open if at signal, the price will be above selected Moving Average, SHORT if below.
>>>>> Divergence/Oscillator Analysis | ATR signal confirmation: LONG will only be open if at signal, the price will be above ATR, SHORT if below.
>>>>> Divergence/Oscillator Analysis | RSI + MACD signal confirmation: LONG will only be open if at signal, RSI + MACD will be bullish, SHORT if RSI + MACD will be bearish.
>>>>> Volume signal confirmation: LONG/SHORT will only be opened with strong Volume matching the signal direction, by default, strong Volume percentage is set to 150% and weak to 50%, but you can change it as you desire.

Adding Alerts in TradngView
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Add indicator to chart and make sure the correct strategy is configured (check Backtesting results)
-Right-click anywhere on the TradingView chart
-Click on Add alert
-Condition: Select this indicator by it’s name
-Immediately below, change it to "alert() function calls only", as other wise there will be 2 alerts for every alert!
-Expiration: Open-ended (that may require higher tier TradingView account, otherwise the alert will need to be occasionally re-triggered)
-Alert name: Whatever you desire
-Hit “Create”
-Note: If you change ANY Settings within the indicator – you must DELETE the current alert and create a new one per steps above, otherwise it will continue triggering alerts per old Settings!
===========================================================================
If you have any questions or issues with the indicator, please message me directly via TradingView.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Good Luck! (NOTE: Trading is very risky, past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results, so please trade responsibly!)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: There seems to be a strange glitch when strategy is running live, it will show "double-take" take-profits labels on the chart. This is not affecting the script logic and backtesting results, if you simply change the timeframe real quick to something else then back - it will no longer show the duplicate orders... this must be some sort of a glitch as every alert was thoroughly tested to make sure everything is working!
[Camarilla Pivots] Signal Clean Up Analysis with Backtest (TSO)Camarilla Pivots NEW GEN Indicator!
This is a full-cycle trading system indicator, which uses Camarilla Pivots for generating signals using a custom developed algorithm, TP (Take Profit) and SL (Stop Loss) levels. There are 3 SOURCES for signals (each can be used separately or in combination or all 3 can be used at the same time, each signal SOURCE is using Camarilla Pivots levels to open optimal trade direction) with chained (NOTE: There are many potential profitable setups available, by combining clean up features availabe in the indicator settings!) signal cleanup and analysis approach with scheduling and alerting capabilities. Works best with shorter timeframes: 1M, 5M, 15M, 1H.
NOTE: Every calculation is done on a confirmed closed candle bar state, so the indicator will never repaint!
NOTE: At position open - there will be calculated Take-Profit and Stop-Loss targets, however each target is considered hit, when candle bar closes breaking that target, so Take-Profit and Stop-Loss when hit will slightly differ then what you see at position open!
===========================================================================
Explanation of all the Features | Configuration Guide | Indicator Settings | Signal Cleanup Analysis
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>> Customizable Backtesting for a specific date range, results via TradingView strategy, which includes “Deep Backtesting” for largest amounts of data on trading results.
>>> Trading Schedule with customizable trading daily time range, automatic closing/alert trades before Power Hour or right before market closes or leave it open until next day.
>>> 3 Trading Systems.
>>> Multiple Signal SOURCEs for opening trades, either SOURCE can be used or both at the same time!
>>> Static/Dynamic Stop-Loss setups (HIGHLIGHT: Stop-Loss will be moved to Entry after TP1 is taken, which minimizes risk).
>>> Single or Multiple profit targets (up to 5).
>>> Take-Profit customizable offset feature (set your Take-Profit targets slightly before everyone is expecting it!).
>>> Candle bar signal analysis (matching candle color, skip opposite structured and/or doji candle uncertain signals).
>>> Additional analysis of VWAP/EMA/ATR/EWO (Elliot Wave Oscillator)/Divergence MACD+RSI/Volume signal confirmation (clean up your chart with indicator showing only the best potential signals!).
>>> Advanced Alerts setup, which can be potentially setup with a trading bot over TradingView Webhook (NOTE: This will require advanced programming knowledge).
===========================================================================
Labels, plots, colors explanations:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>>>> LONG open: green "house" looking arrow below candle bar.
>>>>> SHORT open: red "house" looking arrow above candle bar.
>>>>> LONG/SHORT take-profit target: green/red circles (multi-profit > TP2/3/4/5 smaller circles).
>>>>> LONG/SHORT stop-loss target: green/red + crosses.
>>>>> LONG/SHORT take-profit hits: green/red diamonds.
>>>>> LONG/SHORT stop-loss hits: green/red X-crosses.
>>>>> LONG/SHORT EOD (End of Day | Intraday style) close (profitable trade): green/red squares.
>>>>> LONG/SHORT EOD (End of Day | Intraday style) close (loss trade): green/red PLUS(+)-crosses.
===========================================================================
Date Range and Trading Schedule Settings
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>>>> Date Range: Select your start and/or end dates (uncheck “End” for indicator to show results up to the very moment and to use for LIVE trading) for backtesting results, if not using backtesting – uncheck “Start”/“End” to turn it off.
>>>>> Use TradingView “Strategy Tester” to see backtesting results
NOTE: If Strategy Tester does not show any results with Date Ranged fully unchecked, there may be an issue where a script opens a trade, but there is not enough TradingView power to set the Take-Profit and Stop-Loss and somehow an open trade gets stuck and never closes, so there are “no trades present”. In such case you will need to manually check “Start”/“End” dates or use “Depp Backtesting” feature!
>>>>> Trading Schedule: This is where you can setup Intraday Session or any custom session schedule you wish. Turn it ON. Select trading hours. Select EOD (End of Day) setting (NOTE: If it will be OFF, the indicator will assume you are holding your position open until next day!). Please note the EOD trade closure times with the 2 different Intraday close settings when turned on:
At Market Close:
1/3/5min > will close at 15:55pm ET
15min > will close at 15:45pm ET
30min > will close at 15:30pm ET
45min > will close at 15:45pm ET
60min > will close at 15:00pm ET
Before Power Hour:
1/3/5min > will close at 15:00pm ET
15min > will close at 15:00pm ET
30min > will close at 15:00pm ET
45min > will close at 15:00pm ET
60min > will close at 15:00pm ET
>>> Trading Systems: 1) "Open Until Closed by TP or SL": the signal will only open a trade if no trades are currently open/trunning, a trade can only be closed by Take Profit, Stop Loss or End of Day close (if turned on) | 2) "Open Until Closed by TP or SL + OCA": Same as 1), but if there is an opposite signal to the trade which is currently open > it will immediately be closed with new trade open or End of Day close (if turned on) | 3) "OCA (no TP or SL)": There are is Take Profit or Stop Loss, only an opposite signal will close current trade and open an opposite one or End of Day close (if turned on).
>>> Position Open sources:
>>>>> Position Open - SOURCE1 | LONG: S3, SL: S4, TP1: R3, TP2: R4, TP3: R5, TP4/5: Smart Formula | SHORT: R3, SL: R4, TP1: S3, TP2: S4, TP3: S5, TP4/5: Smart Formula
>>>>> Position Open - SOURCE2 | LONG: R4, SL: R3, TP1: R5, TP2/3/4/5: Smart Formula | SHORT: S4, SL: S3, TP1: S5, TP2/3/4/5: Smart Formula
>>>>> Position Open - SOURCE3 | LONG: R5, SL: R4, TP1/2/3/4/5: Smart Formula | SHORT: S5, SL: S4, TP1/2/3/4/5: Smart Formula
>>> Turn On/Off: Current Position SL + Opposite Position Open Signal on the same closing candle bar (If current trade hits Stop-Loss and at that same closing candle bar there is a signal for an opposite direction trade > indicator will close current position as Stop-Loss and immediately open an opposite position). NOTE: With this option turned on, there will be more trades, but not necessarily better results, since after Stop-Loss is hit, it may make sense to wait a little before opening an opposite trade, even if it matches the condition at the same time when Stop-Loss is hit, but sometimes it shows great results, so this setting/feature is included.
>>> Turn On/Off: Turn On/Off: Current Position REGULAR SL | Only the SL + Opposite Position Open will trigger if turned on, IF NOT - THERE WILL BE NO STOP-LOSS AT ALL!!! NOTE: It is very dangerous to trade without Stop-Loss!
>>>>> Signal Candle Bar consuming Take-Profits - position/trade signal candle bar is big enought to "consume"/close ahead the first TP setting > the signal can either be skipped, or all Take-Profit areas pushed ahead using smart formula)
>>>>> MULTIPROFIT | TP (Take-Profit) System: Once the trade is open, all Take-Profit target(s) are immediately calculated and set for the trade > once the target(s) is hit > trade will be partially closed (if candle bar closes beyond several Take-Profit targets > trade will be reduced accordingly to the amount of how many Take-Profit targets were hit)
>>>>> MULTIPROFIT | SL (Stop-Loss) System: 1) Static – Once the trade is open, Stop-Loss is calculated and set for the remaining of the trade ||| 2) Dynamic – At trade open, Stop-Loss is calculated and set the same way, however once 1st Take-Profit is taken > Stop-Loss is moved to Entry, reducing the risk.
>>>>> # of TPs (number of take profit targets): Just like it is named, this is where you select the number of Take-Profit targets for your trading system (NOTE: If "OCA (no TP or SL)" Trading System is selected, this setting won’t do anything, since there are no TP or SLs for that system).
>>>>> TP(s) offset: This is a special feature for all Take-Profit targets, where you can turn on a customizable offset, so that if the price is almost hitting the Take-Profit target, but never actually touches it > you will capture it. This is good to use with HHLL (Highest High Lowest Low), which is pretty much a Support/Resistance as often the price will nearly touch these strong areas and turn around…
===========================================================================
Signal Analysis and Cleanup Settings
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>>>> Candle Analysis | Candle Color signal confirmation: If closed candle bar color does not match the signal direction > no trade will be open.
>>>>> Candle Analysis | Skip opposite candle signals: If closed candle bar color will match the signal direction, but candle structure will be opposite (for example: bearish green hammer, long high stick on top of a small green square) > no trade will be open.
>>>>> Candle Analysis | Skip doji candle signals: If closed candle bar will be the uncertain doji > no trade will be open.
>>>>> Divergence/Oscillator Analysis | EWO (Elliot Wave Oscillator) signal confirmation: LONG will only be open if at signal, EWO is green or will be at bullish slope (you can select which setting you desire), SHORT if EWO is red or will be at bearish slope.
>>>>> Divergence/Oscillator Analysis | VWAP signal confirmation: LONG will only be open if at signal, the price will be above VWAP, SHORT if below.
>>>>> Divergence/Oscillator Analysis | Moving Average signal confirmation: LONG will only be open if at signal, the price will be above selected Moving Average, SHORT if below.
>>>>> Divergence/Oscillator Analysis | ATR signal confirmation: LONG will only be open if at signal, the price will be above ATR, SHORT if below.
>>>>> Divergence/Oscillator Analysis | RSI + MACD signal confirmation: LONG will only be open if at signal, RSI + MACD will be bullish, SHORT if RSI + MACD will be bearish.
>>>>> Volume signal confirmation: LONG/SHORT will only be opened with strong Volume matching the signal direction, by default, strong Volume percentage is set to 150% and weak to 50%, but you can change it as you desire.

TP System - VERY IMPORTANT INFO!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"TP PERCENTAGE" - amount by which current trade/position needs to be reduced/partially closed/sold.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TP System: Dynamic
"TP PERCENTAGE" - will always be the same amount (trade/position size divided by the # of take-profit(TP) targets) and percentage to be closed will always be of the ORIGINAL trade/position.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TP System: Static
"TP PERCENTAGE" - will always be the same amount IF take-profit(TP) targets are hit 1-by-1 (TP1 > TP2 > TP3 > TP4 > TP5), otherwise it will vary and unless it is a 1st take-profit(TP1), the REMAINING trade/position size will always be smaller than original and therefore the percentage to be closed will always be of the REMAINING trade/position and NOT the original one!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"TP PERCENTAGE" CheatSheet (these are the only percentages you may see)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
TP PERCENTAGE---Close/Sell Amount-------------Example (trade size: 50 stocks)
20%-------------trade size * 0.2--------------50 * 0.2 = 10 stocks
25%-------------trade size * 0.25-------------50 * 0.25 = 12.5(~13) stocks
34%-------------trade size * 0.34-------------50 * 0.34 = 17 stocks
40%-------------trade size * 0.4--------------50 * 0.4 = 20 stocks
50%-------------trade size * 0.5--------------50 * 0.5 = 25 stocks
60%-------------trade size * 0.6--------------50 * 0.6 = 30 stocks
66%-------------trade size * 0.66-------------50 * 0.66 = 33 stocks
75%-------------trade size * 0.75-------------50 * 0.75 = 37.5(~38) stocks
80%-------------trade size * 0.8--------------50 * 0.8 = 40 stocks
100%------------trade size--------------------50 = 50 stocks
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
If for any reason a portion of the current/remaining trade closed at such occurrence was slightly wrong, it is not an issue. Such occurrences are rare and with slight difference in partial TP closed is not significant to overall performance of our algorithms.

Statistical Correlation Algorithm - The Quant ScienceStatistical Correlation Algorithm - The Quant Science™ is a quantitative trading algorithm.
ALGORITHM DESCRIPTION
This algorithm analyses the correlation ratios between two assets. The main asset (on the chart), and the secondary asset (set by the user). Then apply the long or short trading strategy.
The algorithm divides trading work into three parts:
1. Correlation analysis
2. Long or short entry
3. Closing trades
Inside the strategy: the algorithm analyses the percentage change yields from a previous session, of the secondary asset. If the variation meets the set condition then it will open a long or short position, on the primary asset. The open position is closed after 'x' number of sessions. Stop loss and take profit can be added to the trade exit parameters.
Logic: analyses the correlation between two assets and looks for a statistical advantage within the correlation.
INDICATOR DESCRIPTION
The algorithm includes a quantitative indicator. This indicator is used for correlation analysis and offers a quick reading of the quantitative data. The blue area shows the correlation ratio values. The yellow histograms show the percentage change in the yields of the main asset. Purple histograms show the percentage change in secondary asset yields.
GENERAL FEATURES
Multi time-frame: the user can set any time-frame for the secondary asset.
Multi asset: the user analyses the conditions on a second asset.
Multi-strategy: the algorithm can apply either the long strategy or the short strategy.
Built-in alerts: the algorithm contains alerts that can be customized from the user interface.
Integrated indicator: the quantity indicator is included.
Backtesting included: automatic backtesting of the strategy is generated based on the values set.
Auto-trading compliant: functions for auto trading are included.
USER INTERFACE SETTINGS
Through the intuitive user interface, you can manage all the parameters of this algorithm without any programming experience. The user interface is extremely descriptive and contains all the information needed to understand the logic of the algorithm and to configure it correctly.
1. Date range: through this function you can adjust the analysis and working period of the algorithm.
2. Asset: through this function you can adjust the secondary asset and its time-frame. You can enter any type of asset, even indices and economic indicators.
3. Asset details: this function is used to adjust the percentage change to be analyzed on the secondary asset. The analysis and input conditions are also chosen.
4. Active long or short strategy: this function is used to set the type of strategy to be used, long or short.
5. Setting algo trading alert: with this function, users can manage alerts for their web-hook.
6. Exit&Money management: with this function the user can adjust the exit periods of each trade and activate or deactivate any stop losses and take profits.
7. Data Value Analysis: this function is used to adjust the parameters for the quantity indicator.
Follow Line Strategy Version 2.5 (React HTF)Follow Line Strategy v2.5 (React HTF) - TradingView Script Usage
This strategy utilizes a "Follow Line" concept based on Bollinger Bands and ATR to identify potential trading opportunities. It includes advanced features like optional working hours filtering, higher timeframe (HTF) trend confirmation, and improved trend-following entry/exit logic. Version 2.5 introduces reactivity to HTF trend changes for more adaptive trading.
Key Features:
Follow Line: The core of the strategy. It dynamically adjusts based on price breakouts beyond Bollinger Bands, using either the low/high or ATR-adjusted levels.
Bollinger Bands: Uses a standard Bollinger Bands setup to identify overbought/oversold conditions.
ATR Filter: Optionally uses the Average True Range (ATR) to adjust the Follow Line offset, providing a more dynamic and volatility-adjusted entry point.
Optional Trading Session Filter: Allows you to restrict trading to specific hours of the day.
Higher Timeframe (HTF) Confirmation: A significant feature that allows you to confirm trade signals with the trend on a higher timeframe. This can help to filter out false signals and improve the overall win rate.
HTF Selection Method: Choose between Auto and Manual HTF selection:
Auto: The script automatically determines the appropriate HTF based on the current chart timeframe (e.g., 1min -> 15min, 5min -> 4h, 1h -> 1D, Daily -> Monthly).
Manual: Allows you to select a specific HTF using the Manual Higher Timeframe input.
Trend-Following Entries/Exits: The strategy aims to enter trades in the direction of the established trend, using the Follow Line to define the trend.
Reactive HTF Trend Changes: v2.5 exits positions not only based on the trade timeframe (TTF) trend changing, but also when the higher timeframe trend reverses against the position. This makes the strategy more responsive to larger market movements.
Alerts: Provides buy and sell alerts for convenient trading signal notifications.
Visualizations: Plots the Follow Line for both the trade timeframe and the higher timeframe (optional), making it easy to understand the strategy's logic.
How to Use:
Add to Chart: Add the "Follow Line Strategy Version 2.5 (React HTF)" script to your TradingView chart.
Configure Settings: Customize the strategy's settings to match your trading style and preferences. Here's a breakdown of the key settings:
Indicator Settings:
ATR Period: The period used to calculate the ATR. A smaller period is more sensitive to recent price changes.
Bollinger Bands Period: The period used for the Bollinger Bands calculation. A longer period results in smoother bands.
Bollinger Bands Deviation: The number of standard deviations from the moving average that the Bollinger Bands are plotted. Higher deviations create wider bands.
Use ATR for Follow Line Offset?: Enable to use ATR to calculate the Follow Line offset. Disable to use the simple high/low.
Show Trade Signals on Chart?: Enable to show BUY/SELL labels on the chart.
Time Filter:
Use Trading Session Filter?: Enable to restrict trading to specific hours of the day.
Trading Session: The trading session to use (e.g., 0930-1600 for regular US stock market hours). Use 0000-2400 for all hours.
Higher Timeframe Confirmation:
Enable HTF Confirmation?: Enable to use the HTF trend to filter trade signals. If enabled, only trades in the direction of the HTF trend will be taken.
HTF Selection Method: Choose between "Auto" and "Manual" HTF selection.
Manual Higher Timeframe: If "Manual" is selected, choose the specific HTF (e.g., 240 for 4 hours, D for daily).
Show HTF Follow Line?: Enable to plot the HTF Follow Line on the chart.
Understanding the Signals:
Buy Signal: The price breaks above the upper Bollinger Band, and the HTF (if enabled) confirms the uptrend.
Sell Signal: The price breaks below the lower Bollinger Band, and the HTF (if enabled) confirms the downtrend.
Exit Long: The trade timeframe trend changes to downtrend or the higher timeframe trend changes to downtrend.
Exit Short: The trade timeframe trend changes to uptrend or the higher timeframe trend changes to uptrend.
Alerts:
The script includes alert conditions for buy and sell signals. To set up alerts, click the "Alerts" button in TradingView and select the desired alert condition from the script. The alert message provides the ticker and interval.
Backtesting and Optimization:
Use TradingView's Strategy Tester to backtest the strategy on different assets and timeframes.
Experiment with different settings to optimize the strategy for your specific trading style and risk tolerance. Pay close attention to the ATR Period, Bollinger Bands settings, and the HTF confirmation options.
Tips and Considerations:
HTF Confirmation: The HTF confirmation can significantly improve the strategy's performance by filtering out false signals. However, it can also reduce the number of trades.
Risk Management: Always use proper risk management techniques, such as stop-loss orders and position sizing, when trading any strategy.
Market Conditions: The strategy may perform differently in different market conditions. It's important to backtest and optimize the strategy for the specific markets you are trading.
Customization: Feel free to modify the script to suit your specific needs. For example, you could add additional filters or entry/exit conditions.
Pyramiding: The pyramiding = 0 setting prevents multiple entries in the same direction, ensuring the strategy doesn't compound losses. You can adjust this value if you prefer to pyramid into winning positions, but be cautious.
Lookahead: The lookahead = barmerge.lookahead_off setting ensures that the HTF data is calculated based on the current bar's closed data, preventing potential future peeking bias.
Trend Determination: The logic for determining the HTF trend and reacting to changes is critical. Carefully review the f_calculateHTFData function and the conditions for exiting positions to ensure you understand how the strategy responds to different market scenarios.

3Commas Multicoin Scalper LITE [SwissAlgo]
Introduction
Are you tired of tracking cryptocurrency charts and placing orders manually on your Exchange?
The 3Commas Multicoin Scalper LITE is an automated trading system designed to identify and execute potential trading setups on multiple cryptocurrencies ( simultaneously ) on your preferred Exchange (Binance, Bybit, OKX, Gate.io, Bitget) via 3Commas integration.
It analyzes price action, volume, momentum, volatility, and trend patterns across two categories of USDT Perpetual coins: the 'Top Major Coins' category (11 established cryptocurrencies) and your Custom Category (up to 10 coins of your choice).
The indicator sends real-time trading signals directly to your 3Commas bots for automated execution, identifying both trend-following and contrarian trading opportunities in all market conditions.
Trade automatically all coins of one or more selected categories:
----------------------------------------------
What it Does
The 3Commas Multicoin Scalper LITE is a technical analysis tool that monitors multiple cryptocurrency pairs simultaneously and connects with 3Commas for signal delivery and execution.
Here's how the strategy works:
🔶 Technical Analysis : Analyzes price action, volume, momentum, volatility, and trend patterns across USDT Perpetual Futures contracts simultaneously.
🔶 Pattern Detection : Identifies specific candle patterns and technical confluences that suggest potential trading setups across USDT.P contracts of the selected category.
🔶 Signal Generation : When technical criteria are met at bar close, the indicator creates deal-start signals for the relevant pairs.
🔶 3Commas Integration : Packages these signals and delivers them to 3Commas through TradingView alerts, allowing 3Commas bots to receive specific pair information ('Deal-Start' signals).
🔶 Category Management : Each TradingView alert monitors an entire category, allowing selective activation of different crypto categories.
🔶 Visual Feedback : Provides color-coded candles and backgrounds to visualize technical conditions, with optional pivot points and trend visualization.
Candle types
Signals
----------------------------------------------
Quick Start Guide
1. Setup 3Commas Bots : Configure two DCA bots in 3Commas (All USDT pairs) - one for LONG positions and one for SHORT positions.
2. Define Trading Parameters : Set your budget for each trade and adjust your preferred sensitivity within the indicator settings.
3. Create Category Alerts : Set up one TradingView alert for each crypto category you want to trade.
That's it! Once configured, the system automatically sends signals to your 3Commas bots when predefined trading setups are detected across coins in your selected/activated categories. The indicator scans all coins at bar close (for example, every hour on the 1H timeframe) and triggers trade execution only for those showing technical confluences.
Important : Consider your total capital when enabling categories. More details about the setup process are provided below (see paragraph "Detailed Setup & Configuration").
----------------------------------------------
Built-in Backtesting
The 3Commas Multicoin Scalper LITE includes backtesting visualization for each coin. When viewing any USDT Perpetual pair on your chart, you can visualize how the strategy would have performed historically on that specific asset.
Color-coded candles and signal markers show past trading setups, helping you evaluate which coins responded best to the strategy. This built-in backtesting capability can support your selection of assets/categories to trade before deploying real capital.
As backtesting results are hypothetical and do not guarantee future performance, your research and analysis are essential for selecting the crypto categories/coins to trade.
The default strategy settings are: Start Capital 1,000$, leverage 10X, Commissions 0.1% (average Taker Fee on Exchanges for average users), Order Amount 200$ for Longs/Shorts, Slippage 4
Example of backtesting view
----------------------------------------------
Key Features
🔶 Multi-Exchange Support : Compatible with BINANCE, BYBIT, BITGET, GATEIO, and OKX USDT Perpetual markets (USDT.P)
🔶 Category Options : Analyze cryptocurrencies in the Top Major Coins category or create your custom watchlist
🔶 Custom Category Option : Create your watchlist with up to 10 custom USDT Perpetual pairs

Methodology
The 3Commas Multicoin Scalper LITE utilizes a multi-faceted approach to identify potential trading setups:
1. Price Action Analysis : Detects abnormal price movements by comparing the current candle's range to historical averages and standard deviations, helping identify potential "pump and dump" scenarios or new-trends start
2. Price Momentum : Evaluates the relative strength of bullish vs. bearish price movements over time, indicating the build-up of buying or selling pressure.
3. Volume Analysis: Identifies unusual volume spikes by comparing current volume to historical averages, signaling strong market interest in a particular direction.
4. Volume Momentum : Measures the ratio of bullish to bearish volume, revealing the dominance of buyers or sellers over time.
5. Trend Analysis : Combines EMA slopes, RSI, and Stochastic RSI to determine overall trend direction and strength.
6. Volatility : Monitors the ATR (Average True Range) to detect periods of increased market volatility, which may indicate potential breakouts or reversals
7. Candle Wick Analysis : Evaluates upper and lower wick percentages to detect potential rejection patterns and reversals.
8. Pivot Point Analysis : Uses pivot points (PP, R1-R3, S1-S3) for identifying key support/resistance areas and potential breakout/breakdown levels.
9. Daily Open Reference: Analyzes price action relative to the daily open for potential setups related to price movement vs. the opening price
10. Market Timing/Liquidity : Evaluates high/low liquidity periods, specific days/times of heightened risk, and potential market manipulation timeframes.
11. Boost Factors : Applies additional weight to certain confluence patterns to adjust global scores
These factors are combined into a "Global Score" ranging from -1 to +1 , applied at bar close to the newly formed candles.
Scores above predefined thresholds (configurable via the Sensitivity Settings) indicate strong bullish or bearish conditions and trigger signals based on predefined patterns. The indicator then applies additional filters to generate specific "Trend Following" and "Contrarian" trading signals. The identified signals are packaged and sent to 3Commas for execution.

FAQs
General Questions
❓ Q: What features are included in this indicator? A: This indicator provides access to the "Top Major Coins" category and a custom category option where you can define up to 10 pairs of your choice. It includes multi-exchange support, 3Commas integration, a dual strategy approach, visual indicators, trade controls, and comprehensive backtesting capabilities. The indicator is optimized to manage up to 2 trades per hour/category with leverage up to 10x and trade sizes up to 500 USDT - everything needed for traders looking to automate their crypto trading across multiple pairs simultaneously.
❓ Q: What is Global Score? A: The Global Score serves as a foundation for signal generation. When a candle's score exceeds certain thresholds (defined by your Risk Level setting), it becomes a candidate for signal generation. However, not all high-scoring candles generate trading signals - the indicator applies additional pattern recognition and contextual filters. For example, a strongly positive score (lime candle) in an established uptrend may trigger a "Trend Following" signal, while a strongly negative score (red candle) in a downtrend might generate a "Trend following Short" signal. Similarly, contrarian signals are generated when specific reversal patterns occur alongside appropriate Global Score values, often involving wick analysis and pivot point interactions. This multi-layer approach helps filter out false positives and identify higher-probability trading setups.
❓ Q: What's the difference between "Trend following" and "Contrarian" signals in the script? A: "Trend Following" signals follow the identified trends while "Contrarian" signals anticipate potential trend reversals.
❓ Q: Why don't I see any signals on my chart? A: Make sure you're viewing a USDT Perpetual pair from your selected exchange that belongs to the crypto category you've chosen to analyze. For example, if you've selected the "Top Major Coins" category with Binance as your exchange, you need to view a chart of one of those specific pairs (like BINANCE:BTCUSDT.P) to see signals. If you switch exchanges, for example from Binance to Bybit, you need to pull a Bybit pair on the chart to see backtesting data and signals.
❓ Q: Does this indicator guarantee profits? A: No. Trading cryptocurrencies involves significant risk, and past performance is not indicative of future results. This indicator is a tool to help you identify potential trading setups, but it does not and cannot guarantee profits.
❓ Q: Does this indicator repaint or use lookahead bias? A: No. All trading signals generated by this indicator are based only on completed price data and do not repaint. The system is designed to ensure that backtesting results reflect as closely as possible what you should experience in live trading.
While reference levels like pivot points are kept stable throughout the day using lookahead on, the actual buy and sell signals are calculated using only historical data (lookahead off) that would have been available at that moment in time. This ensures reliability and consistency between backtesting and real-time trading performance.
Technical Setup
❓ Q: What exchanges are supported? A: The strategy supports BINANCE, BYBIT, BITGET, GATEIO, and OKX USDT Perpetual markets (i.e. all the Exchanges you can connect to your 3Commas account for USDT Perpetual trading, excluding Coinbase Perpetual that offers USDC pairs, instead of USDT).
❓ Q: What timeframe should I use? A: The indicator is optimized for the 1-hour (1H) timeframe but may run on any timeframe.
❓ Q: How many coins can I trade at once? A: You can trade all coins within the selected category. You can activate categories by setting up alerts.
❓ Q: How many alerts do I need to set up? A: You need to set up one alert for each crypto category you want to trade. We recommend starting with one category, testing the results carefully, monitoring performance daily, and perhaps activating additional categories in a second stage.
❓ Q: Are there any specific risk management features built into the indicator? A: Yes, the indicator includes risk management features: adjustable maximum trades per hour/category, the ability to enable/disable long or short signals depending on market conditions, customizable trade size for both long and short positions, and different sensitivity/risk level settings.
❓ Q: What happens if 3Commas can't execute a signal? A: If 3Commas cannot execute a signal (due to insufficient funds, bot offline, etc.), the trade will be skipped. The indicator will continue sending signals for other valid setups, but it doesn't retry failed signals.
❓ Q: Can I run this indicator on multiple charts at once? A: Yes, but it's not necessary. The indicator analyzes all coins in your selected categories regardless of which chart you apply it to. For optimal resource usage, apply it to a single chart of a USDT Perpetual pair from your selected exchange. To stop trading a category, simply delete the alert created for that category.
❓ Q: How frequently does the indicator scan for new signals? A: The indicator scans all coins in your selected categories at the close of each bar (every hour if you selected the 1H timeframe).

Chande Kroll Trend Strategy (SPX, 1H) | PINEINDICATORSThe "Chande Kroll Stop Strategy" is designed to optimize trading on the SPX using a 1-hour timeframe. This strategy effectively combines the Chande Kroll Stop indicator with a Simple Moving Average (SMA) to create a robust method for identifying long entry and exit points. This detailed description will explain the components, rationale, and usage to ensure compliance with TradingView's guidelines and help traders understand the strategy's utility and application.
Objective
The primary goal of this strategy is to identify potential long trading opportunities in the SPX by leveraging volatility-adjusted stop levels and trend-following principles. It aims to capture upward price movements while managing risk through dynamically calculated stops.
Chande Kroll Stop Parameters:
Calculation Mode: Offers "Linear" and "Exponential" options for position size calculation. The default mode is "Exponential."
Risk Multiplier: An adjustable multiplier for risk management and position sizing, defaulting to 5.
ATR Period: Defines the period for calculating the Average True Range (ATR), with a default of 10.
ATR Multiplier: A multiplier applied to the ATR to set stop levels, defaulting to 3.
Stop Length: Period used to determine the highest high and lowest low for stop calculation, defaulting to 21.
SMA Length: Period for the Simple Moving Average, defaulting to 21.
Calculation Details:
ATR Calculation: ATR is calculated over the specified period to measure market volatility.
Chande Kroll Stop Calculation:
High Stop: The highest high over the stop length minus the ATR multiplied by the ATR multiplier.
Low Stop: The lowest low over the stop length plus the ATR multiplied by the ATR multiplier.
SMA Calculation: The 21-period SMA of the closing price is used as a trend filter.
Entry and Exit Conditions:
Long Entry: A long position is initiated when the closing price crosses over the low stop and is above the 21-period SMA. This condition ensures that the market is trending upward and that the entry is made in the direction of the prevailing trend.
Exit Long: The long position is exited when the closing price falls below the high stop, indicating potential downward movement and protecting against significant drawdowns.
Position Sizing:
The quantity of shares to trade is calculated based on the selected calculation mode (linear or exponential) and the risk multiplier. This ensures position size is adjusted dynamically based on current market conditions and user-defined risk tolerance.
Exponential Mode: Quantity is calculated using the formula: riskMultiplier / lowestClose * 1000 * strategy.equity / strategy.initial_capital.
Linear Mode: Quantity is calculated using the formula: riskMultiplier / lowestClose * 1000.
Execution:
When the long entry condition is met, the strategy triggers a buy signal, and a long position is entered with the calculated quantity. An alert is generated to notify the trader.
When the exit condition is met, the strategy closes the position and triggers a sell signal, accompanied by an alert.
Plotting:
Buy Signals: Indicated with an upward triangle below the bar.
Sell Signals: Indicated with a downward triangle above the bar.
Application
This strategy is particularly effective for trading the SPX on a 1-hour timeframe, capitalizing on price movements by adjusting stop levels dynamically based on market volatility and trend direction.
Default Setup
Initial Capital: $1,000
Risk Multiplier: 5
ATR Period: 10
ATR Multiplier: 3
Stop Length: 21
SMA Length: 21
Commission: 0.01
Slippage: 3 Ticks
Backtesting Results
Backtesting indicates that the "Chande Kroll Stop Strategy" performs optimally on the SPX when applied to the 1-hour timeframe. The strategy's dynamic adjustment of stop levels helps manage risk effectively while capturing significant upward price movements. Backtesting was conducted with a realistic initial capital of $1,000, and commissions and slippage were included to ensure the results are not misleading.
Risk Management
The strategy incorporates risk management through dynamically calculated stop levels based on the ATR and a user-defined risk multiplier. This approach ensures that position sizes are adjusted according to market volatility, helping to mitigate potential losses. Trades are sized to risk a sustainable amount of equity, adhering to the guideline of risking no more than 5-10% per trade.
Usage Notes
Customization: Users can adjust the ATR period, ATR multiplier, stop length, and SMA length to better suit their trading style and risk tolerance.
Alerts: The strategy includes alerts for buy and sell signals to keep traders informed of potential entry and exit points.
Pyramiding: Although possible, the strategy yields the best results without pyramiding.
Justification of Components
The Chande Kroll Stop indicator and the 21-period SMA are combined to provide a robust framework for identifying long trading opportunities in trending markets. Here is why they work well together:
Chande Kroll Stop Indicator: This indicator provides dynamic stop levels that adapt to market volatility, allowing traders to set logical stop-loss levels that account for current price movements. It is particularly useful in volatile markets where fixed stops can be easily hit by random price fluctuations. By using the ATR, the stop levels adjust based on recent market activity, ensuring they remain relevant in varying market conditions.
21-Period SMA: The 21-period SMA acts as a trend filter to ensure trades are taken in the direction of the prevailing market trend. By requiring the closing price to be above the SMA for long entries, the strategy aligns itself with the broader market trend, reducing the risk of entering trades against the overall market direction. This helps to avoid false signals and ensures that the trades are in line with the dominant market movement.
Combining these two components creates a balanced approach that captures trending price movements while protecting against significant drawdowns through adaptive stop levels. The Chande Kroll Stop ensures that the stops are placed at levels that reflect current volatility, while the SMA filter ensures that trades are only taken when the market is trending in the desired direction.
Concepts Underlying Calculations
ATR (Average True Range): Used to measure market volatility, which informs the stop levels.
SMA (Simple Moving Average): Used to filter trades, ensuring positions are taken in the direction of the trend.
Chande Kroll Stop: Combines high and low price levels with ATR to create dynamic stop levels that adapt to market conditions.
Risk Disclaimer
Trading involves substantial risk, and most day traders incur losses. The "Chande Kroll Stop Strategy" is provided for informational and educational purposes only. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Users are advised to adjust and personalize this trading strategy to better match their individual trading preferences and risk tolerance.
[Volume Profile] Signal Clean Up Analysis with Backtest (TSO) This is a full-cycle trading system indicator, which uses Volume Profile for generating signals using a custom developed algorithm, TP (Take Profit) and SL (Stop Loss) levels. There are 2 SOURCES for signals (each can be used separately or both can be used at the same time, each signal SOURCE is using Volume Profile levels to open optimal trade direction) with chained (NOTE: You can select several or ALL of the features, this is not limited to either one) signal cleanup and analysis approach with scheduling and alerting capabilities. Works with most popular timeframes: 1M, 5M, 15M, 1H, 4H, D, great for intraday trading!
NOTE: Every calculation is done on a confirmed closed candle bar state, so the indicator will never repaint!
===========================================================================
Explanation of all the Features | Configuration Guide | Indicator Settings | Signal Cleanup Analysis
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>> Customizable Backtesting for a specific date range, results via TradingView strategy, which includes “Deep Backtesting” for largest amounts of data on trading results.
>>> Trading Schedule with customizable trading daily time range, automatic closing/alert trades before Power Hour or right before market closes or leave it open until next day.
>>> 3 Trading Systems.
>>> Multiple Signal SOURCEs for opening trades, either SOURCE can be used or both at the same time!
>>> Static/Dynamic Stop-Loss setups (HIGHLIGHT: Stop-Loss will be moved to Entry after TP1 is taken, which minimizes risk).
>>> Single or Multiple profit targets (up to 3).
>>> Take-Profit customizable offset feature (set your Take-Profit targets slightly before everyone is expecting it!).
>>> Candle bar signal analysis (matching candle color, skip opposite structured and/or doji candle uncertain signals).

>>>>> LONG/SHORT EOD close (loss trade): green/red PLUS(+)-crosses.
===========================================================================
Date Range and Trading Schedule Settings
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>>>> Date Range: Select your start and/or end dates (uncheck “End” for indicator to show results up to the very moment and to use for LIVE trading) for backtesting results, if not using backtesting – uncheck “Start”/“End” to turn it off.
>>>>> Use TradingView “Strategy Tester” to see backtesting results
NOTE: If Strategy Tester does not show any results with Date Ranged fully unchecked, there may be an issue where a script opens a trade, but there is not enough TradingView power to set the Take-Profit and Stop-Loss and somehow an open trade gets stuck and never closes, so there are “no trades present”. In such case you will need to manually check “Start”/“End” dates or use “Depp Backtesting” feature!
>>>>> Trading Schedule: This is where you can setup Intraday Session or any custom session schedule you wish. Turn it ON. Select trading hours. Select EOD (End of Day) setting (NOTE: If it will be OFF, the indicator will assume you are holding your position open until next day!).
>>> Trading Systems: 1) "Open Until Closed by TP or SL": the signal will only open a trade if no trades are currently open/trunning, a trade can only be closed by Take Profit, Stop Loss or End of Day close (if turned on) | 2) "Open Until Closed by TP or SL + OCA": Same as 1), but if there is an opposite signal to the trade which is currently open > it will immediately be closed with new trade open or End of Day close (if turned on) | 3) "OCA (no TP or SL)": There are is Take Profit or Stop Loss, only an opposite signal will close current trade and open an opposite one or End of Day close (if turned on)
>>>>> MULTIPROFIT | TP (Take-Profit) System: Once the trade is open, all Take-Profit target(s) are immediately calculated and set for the trade > once the target(s) is hit > trade will be partially closed (if candle bar closes beyond several Take-Profit targets > trade will be reduced accordingly to the amount of how many Take-Profit targets were hit)
>>>>> MULTIPROFIT | SL (Stop-Loss) System: 1) Static – Once the trade is open, Stop-Loss is calculated and set for the remaining of the trade ||| 2) Dynamic – At trade open, Stop-Loss is calculated and set the same way, however once 1st Take-Profit is taken > Stop-Loss is moved to Entry, reducing the risk.
>>>>> # of TPs (number of take profit targets): Just like it is named, this is where you select the number of Take-Profit targets for your trading system (NOTE: If "OCA (no TP or SL)" Trading System is selected, this setting won’t do anything, since there are no TP or SLs for that system).
>>>>> TP(s) offset: This is a special feature for all Take-Profit targets, where you can turn on a customizable offset, so that if the price is almost hitting the Take-Profit target, but never actually touches it > you will capture it. This is good to use with HHLL (Highest High Lowest Low), which is pretty much a Support/Resistance as often the price will nearly touch these strong areas and turn around…
===========================================================================
Take-Profit and Stop-Loss visual example:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) A simply nice intraday trading day for SPY (S&P500 ETF TRUST) with a single Take-Profit target on each trade.
See how Take-Profit distances increase with price momentum and how Stop-Loss is following the trade reducing the risk!
2) Same intraday trading day for SPY (S&P500 ETF TRUST) with 3 Take-Profit targets with static Stop-Loss.
3) Same intraday trading day for SPY (S&P500 ETF TRUST) with 3 Take-Profit targets with dynamic Stop-Loss.
You can see how Stop-Loss was moved once TP1 is taken!
===========================================================================
Trade Analysis and Cleanup Settings
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>>>> Candle Analysis | Candle Color signal confirmation: If closed candle bar color does not match the signal direction > no trade will be open.
>>>>> Candle Analysis | Skip opposite candle signals: If closed candle bar color will match the signal direction, but candle structure will be opposite (for example: bearish green hammer, long high stick on top of a small green square) > no trade will be open.
>>>>> Candle Analysis | Skip doji candle signals: If closed candle bar will be the uncertain doji > no trade will be open.
>>>>> Divergence/Oscillator Analysis | EWO (Elliot Wave Oscillator) signal confirmation: LONG will only be open if at signal, EWO is green or will be at bullish slope (you can select which setting you desire), SHORT if EWO is red or will be at bearish slope.
>>>>> Divergence/Oscillator Analysis | VWAP signal confirmation: LONG will only be open if at signal, the price will be above VWAP, SHORT if below.
