Rally Base Drop SND Pivots Strategy [LuxAlgo X PineIndicators]This strategy is based on the Rally Base Drop (RBD) SND Pivots indicator developed by LuxAlgo. Full credit for the concept and original indicator goes to LuxAlgo.
The Rally Base Drop SND Pivots Strategy is a non-repainting supply and demand trading system that detects pivot points based on Rally, Base, and Drop (RBD) candles. This strategy automatically identifies key market structure levels, allowing traders to:
Identify pivot-based supply and demand (SND) zones.
Use fixed criteria for trend continuation or reversals.
Filter out market noise by requiring structured price formations.
Enter trades based on breakouts of key SND pivot levels.
How the Rally Base Drop SND Pivots Strategy Works
1. Pivot Point Detection Using RBD Candles
The strategy follows a rigid market structure methodology, where pivots are detected only when:
A Rally (R) consists of multiple consecutive bullish candles.
A Drop (D) consists of multiple consecutive bearish candles.
A Base (B) is identified as a transition between Rallies and Drops, acting as a pivot point.
The pivot level is confirmed when the formation is complete.
Unlike traditional fractal-based pivots, RBD Pivots enforce stricter structural rules, ensuring that each pivot:
Has a well-defined bullish or bearish price movement.
Reduces false signals caused by single-bar fluctuations.
Provides clear supply and demand levels based on structured price movements.
These pivot levels are drawn on the chart using color-coded boxes:
Green zones represent bullish pivot levels (Rally Base formations).
Red zones represent bearish pivot levels (Drop Base formations).
Once a pivot is confirmed, the high or low of the base candle is used as the reference level for future trades.
2. Trade Entry Conditions
The strategy allows traders to select from three trading modes:
Long Only – Only takes long trades when bullish pivot breakouts occur.
Short Only – Only takes short trades when bearish pivot breakouts occur.
Long & Short – Trades in both directions based on pivot breakouts.
Trade entry signals are triggered when price breaks through a confirmed pivot level:
Long Entry:
A bullish pivot level is formed.
Price breaks above the bullish pivot level.
The strategy enters a long position.
Short Entry:
A bearish pivot level is formed.
Price breaks below the bearish pivot level.
The strategy enters a short position.
The strategy includes an optional mode to reverse long and short conditions, allowing traders to experiment with contrarian entries.
3. Exit Conditions Using ATR-Based Risk Management
This strategy uses the Average True Range (ATR) to calculate dynamic stop-loss and take-profit levels:
Stop-Loss (SL): Placed 1 ATR below entry for long trades and 1 ATR above entry for short trades.
Take-Profit (TP): Set using a Risk-Reward Ratio (RR) multiplier (default = 6x ATR).
When a trade is opened:
The entry price is recorded.
ATR is calculated at the time of entry to determine stop-loss and take-profit levels.
Trades exit automatically when either SL or TP is reached.
If reverse conditions mode is enabled, stop-loss and take-profit placements are flipped.
Visualization & Dynamic Support/Resistance Levels
1. Pivot Boxes for Market Structure
Each pivot is marked with a colored box:
Green boxes indicate bullish demand zones.
Red boxes indicate bearish supply zones.
These boxes remain on the chart to act as dynamic support and resistance levels, helping traders identify key price reaction zones.
2. Horizontal Entry, Stop-Loss, and Take-Profit Lines
When a trade is active, the strategy plots:
White line → Entry price.
Red line → Stop-loss level.
Green line → Take-profit level.
Labels display the exact entry, SL, and TP values, updating dynamically as price moves.
Customization Options
This strategy offers multiple adjustable settings to optimize performance for different market conditions:
Trade Mode Selection → Choose between Long Only, Short Only, or Long & Short.
Pivot Length → Defines the number of required Rally & Drop candles for a pivot.
ATR Exit Multiplier → Adjusts stop-loss distance based on ATR.
Risk-Reward Ratio (RR) → Modifies take-profit level relative to risk.
Historical Lookback → Limits how far back pivot zones are displayed.
Color Settings → Customize pivot box colors for bullish and bearish setups.
Considerations & Limitations
Pivot Breakouts Do Not Guarantee Reversals. Some pivot breaks may lead to continuation moves instead of trend reversals.
Not Optimized for Low Volatility Conditions. This strategy works best in trending markets with strong momentum.
ATR-Based Stop-Loss & Take-Profit May Require Optimization. Different assets may require different ATR multipliers and RR settings.
Market Noise May Still Influence Pivots. While this method filters some noise, fake breakouts can still occur.
Conclusion
The Rally Base Drop SND Pivots Strategy is a non-repainting supply and demand system that combines:
Pivot-based market structure analysis (using Rally, Base, and Drop candles).
Breakout-based trade entries at confirmed SND levels.
ATR-based dynamic risk management for stop-loss and take-profit calculation.
This strategy helps traders:
Identify high-probability supply and demand levels.
Trade based on structured market pivots.
Use a systematic approach to price action analysis.
Automatically manage risk with ATR-based exits.
The strict pivot detection rules and built-in breakout validation make this strategy ideal for traders looking to:
Trade based on market structure.
Use defined support & resistance levels.
Reduce noise compared to traditional fractals.
Implement a structured supply & demand trading model.
This strategy is fully customizable, allowing traders to adjust parameters to fit their market and trading style.

[SHORT ONLY] 10 Bar Low Pullback█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "10 Bar Low Pullback" strategy is a contrarian short trading system designed to capture pullbacks after a new 10‐bar low is made. it identifies a potential short opportunity when the current bar’s low breaks below the lowest low of the previous 10 bars, provided that the bar exhibits strong internal momentum as measured by its IBS value. An optional trend filter further refines entries by requiring that the close is below a 200-period EMA.
█ WHAT IS INTERNAL BAR STRENGTH (IBS)?
Internal Bar Strength (IBS) measures where the closing price falls within the high-low range of a bar. It is calculated as:
ibs = (close - low) / (high - low)
- Low IBS (≤ 0.2): Indicates the close is near the bar's low, suggesting oversold conditions.
- High IBS (≥ 0.8): Indicates the close is near the bar's high, suggesting overbought conditions.
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. SHORT ENTRY
A Short Signal is triggered when:
The current bar’s low is below the lowest low of the past X bars (default: 10).
The bar’s IBS is greater than the specified threshold (default: 0.85).
The signal occurs within the defined trading window (between Start Time and End Time).
If the EMA Filter is enabled, the close must be below the 200-period EMA.
2. EXIT CONDITION
An exit Signal is generated when the current close falls below the previous bar’s low (close < low ), indicating a potential bearish reversal and prompting the strategy to close its short position.
█ ADDITIONAL SETTINGS
Lookback Period: Defines the number of bars (default is 10) over which the lowest low is calculated.
IBS Threshold: Sets the minimum required IBS value (default is 0.85) to qualify as a pullback.

[SHORT ONLY] Consecutive Bars Above MA Strategy█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "Consecutive Bars Above MA Strategy" is a contrarian trading system aimed at exploiting overextended bullish moves in stocks and ETFs. It monitors the number of consecutive bars that close above a chosen short-term moving average (which can be either a Simple Moving Average or an Exponential Moving Average). Once the count reaches a preset threshold and the current bar’s close exceeds the previous bar’s high within a designated trading window, a short entry is initiated. An optional EMA filter further refines entries by requiring that the current close is below the 200-period EMA, helping to ensure that trades are taken in a bearish environment.
█ HOW ARE THE CONSECUTIVE BULLISH COUNTS CALCULATED?
The strategy utilizes a counter variable, `bullCount`, to track consecutive bullish bars based on their relation to the short-term moving average. Here’s how the count is determined:
Initialize the Counter
The counter is initialized at the start:
var int bullCount = na
Bullish Bar Detection
For each bar, if the close is above the selected moving average (either SMA or EMA, based on user input), the counter is incremented:
bullCount := close > signalMa ? (na(bullCount) ? 1 : bullCount + 1) : 0
Reset on Non-Bullish Condition
If the close does not exceed the moving average, the counter resets to zero, indicating a break in the consecutive bullish streak.
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. SHORT ENTRY
A short signal is generated when:
The number of consecutive bullish bars (i.e., bars closing above the short-term MA) meets or exceeds the defined threshold (default: 3).
The current bar’s close is higher than the previous bar’s high.
The signal occurs within the specified trading window (between Start Time and End Time).
Additionally, if the EMA filter is enabled, the entry is only executed when the current close is below the 200-period EMA.
2. EXIT CONDITION
An exit signal is triggered when the current close falls below the previous bar’s low, prompting the strategy to close the short position.
█ ADDITIONAL SETTINGS
Threshold: The number of consecutive bullish bars required to trigger a short entry (default is 3).
Trading Window: The Start Time and End Time inputs define when the strategy is active.
Moving Average Settings: Choose between SMA and EMA, and set the MA length (default is 5), which is used to assess each bar’s bullish condition.
EMA Filter (Optional): When enabled, this filter requires that the current close is below the 200-period EMA, supporting entries in a downtrend.
█ PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
This strategy is designed for stocks and ETFs and can be applied across various timeframes.
It seeks to capture mean reversion by shorting after a series of bullish bars suggests an overextended move.
The approach employs a contrarian short entry by waiting for a breakout (close > previous high) following consecutive bullish bars.
The adjustable moving average settings and optional EMA filter allow for further optimization based on market conditions.
Comprehensive backtesting is recommended to fine-tune the threshold, moving average parameters, and filter settings for optimal performance.
[SHORT ONLY] Consecutive Close>High[1] Mean Reversion Strategy█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "Consecutive Close > High " Mean Reversion Strategy is a contrarian daily trading system for stocks and ETFs. It identifies potential shorting opportunities by counting consecutive days where the closing price exceeds the previous day's high. When this consecutive day count reaches a predetermined threshold, and if the close is below a 200-period EMA (if enabled), a short entry is triggered, anticipating a corrective pullback.
█ HOW ARE THE CONSECUTIVE BULLISH COUNTS CALCULATED?
The strategy uses a counter variable called `bullCount` to track how many consecutive bars meet a bullish condition. Here’s a breakdown of the process:
Initialize the Counter
var int bullCount = 0
Bullish Bar Detection
Every time the close exceeds the previous bar's high, increment the counter:
if close > high
bullCount += 1
Reset on Bearish Bar
When there is a clear bearish reversal, the counter is reset to zero:
if close < low
bullCount := 0
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. SHORT ENTRY

Turn of the Month Strategy on Steroids█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "Turn of the Month Strategy on Steroids" is a seasonal mean-reversion strategy designed to capitalize on price movements around the end of the month. It enters a long position when specific conditions are met and exits when the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicates overbought conditions. This strategy is optimized for use on daily or higher timeframes.
█ WHAT IS THE TURN OF THE MONTH EFFECT?
The Turn of the Month effect refers to the observed tendency of stock prices to rise around the end of the month. This strategy leverages this phenomenon by entering long positions when the price shows signs of a reversal during this period.
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. LONG ENTRY
A Buy Signal is triggered when:
The current day of the month is greater than or equal to the specified `dayOfMonth` threshold (default is 25).
The close price is lower than the previous day's close (`close < close `).
The previous day's close is also lower than the close two days ago (`close < close `).
The signal occurs within the specified time window (between `Start Time` and `End Time`).
There is no existing open position (`strategy.position_size == 0`).
2. EXIT CONDITION
A Sell Signal is generated when the 2-period RSI exceeds 65, indicating overbought conditions. This prompts the strategy to exit the position.
█ ADDITIONAL SETTINGS
Day of Month: The day of the month threshold for triggering a Buy Signal. Default is 25.
Start Time and End Time: The time window during which the strategy is allowed to execute trades.
█ PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
This strategy is designed to exploit seasonal price patterns around the end of the month.
It performs best in markets where the Turn of the Month effect is pronounced.
Backtesting results should be analyzed to optimize the `dayOfMonth` threshold and RSI parameters for specific instruments.
Consecutive Bars Above/Below EMA Buy the Dip Strategy█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "Consecutive Bars Above/Below EMA Buy the Dip Strategy" is a mean-reversion strategy designed to identify potential buying opportunities when the price dips below a moving average for a specified number of consecutive bars. It enters a long position when the dip condition is met and exits when the price shows strength by exceeding the previous bar's high. This strategy is suitable for use on various timeframes.
█ WHAT IS THE MOVING AVERAGE?
The strategy uses either a Simple Moving Average (SMA) or an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) as a reference for identifying dips. The type and length of the moving average can be customized in the settings.
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. LONG ENTRY
A Buy Signal is triggered when:
The close price is below the selected moving average for a specified number of consecutive bars (`consecutiveBarsTreshold`).
The signal occurs within the specified time window (between `Start Time` and `End Time`).
2. EXIT CONDITION
A Sell Signal is generated when the current closing price exceeds the high of the previous bar (`close > high `). This indicates that the price has shown strength, potentially confirming the reversal and prompting the strategy to exit the position.
█ ADDITIONAL SETTINGS
Consecutive Bars Threshold: The number of consecutive bars the price must remain below the moving average to trigger a Buy Signal. Default is 3.
MA Type: The type of moving average used (SMA or EMA). Default is SMA.
MA Length: The length of the moving average. Default is 5.
Start Time and End Time: The time window during which the strategy is allowed to execute trades.
█ PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
This strategy is designed for mean-reverting markets and performs best when the price frequently oscillates around the moving average.
It is sensitive to the number of consecutive bars below the moving average, which helps to identify potential dips.
Backtesting results should be analysed to optimize the Consecutive Bars Threshold, MA Type, and MA Length for specific instruments.
Consecutive Bearish Candle Strategy█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "Consecutive Bearish Candle Strategy" is a momentum-based strategy designed to identify potential reversals after a sustained bearish move. It enters a long position when a specific number of consecutive bearish candles occur and exits when the price shows strength by exceeding the previous bar's high. This strategy is optimized for use on various timeframes and instruments.
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. LONG ENTRY
A Buy Signal is triggered when:
The close price has been lower than the previous close for at least `Lookback` consecutive bars. This indicates a sustained bearish move, suggesting a potential reversal.
The signal occurs within the specified time window (between `Start Time` and `End Time`).
2. EXIT CONDITION
A Sell Signal is generated when the current closing price exceeds the high of the previous bar (`close > high `). This indicates that the price has shown strength, potentially confirming the reversal and prompting the strategy to exit the position.
█ ADDITIONAL SETTINGS
Lookback: The number of consecutive bearish bars required to trigger a Buy Signal. Default is 3.
Start Time and End Time: The time window during which the strategy is allowed to execute trades.
█ PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
This strategy is designed for markets with frequent momentum shifts.
It performs best in volatile conditions where price movements are significant.
Backtesting results should be analysed to optimize the `Lookback` parameter for specific instruments.
4 Bar Momentum Reversal strategy█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "4 Bar Momentum Reversal Strategy" is a mean-reversion strategy designed to identify price reversals following a sustained downward move. It enters a long position when a reversal condition is met and exits when the price shows strength by exceeding the previous bar's high. This strategy is optimized for indices and stocks on the daily timeframe.
█ WHAT IS THE REFERENCE CLOSE?
The Reference Close is the closing price from X bars ago, where X is determined by the Lookback period. Think of it as a moving benchmark that helps the strategy assess whether prices are trending upwards or downwards relative to past performance. For example, if the Lookback is set to 4, the Reference Close is the closing price 4 bars ago (`close `).
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. LONG ENTRY
A Buy Signal is triggered when:
The close price has been lower than the Reference Close for at least `Buy Threshold` consecutive bars. This indicates a sustained downward move, suggesting a potential reversal.
The signal occurs within the specified time window (between `Start Time` and `End Time`).
2. EXIT CONDITION
A Sell Signal is generated when the current closing price exceeds the high of the previous bar (`close > high `). This indicates that the price has shown strength, potentially confirming the reversal and prompting the strategy to exit the position.
█ ADDITIONAL SETTINGS
Buy Threshold: The number of consecutive bearish bars needed to trigger a Buy Signal. Default is 4.
Lookback: The number of bars ago used to calculate the Reference Close. Default is 4.
Start Time and End Time: The time window during which the strategy is allowed to execute trades.
█ PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
This strategy is designed for trending markets with frequent reversals.
It performs best in volatile conditions where price movements are significant.
Backtesting results should be analysed to optimize the Buy Threshold and Lookback parameters for specific instruments.
Dynamic Support and Resistance Pivot Strategy The Dynamic Support and Resistance Pivot Strategy is a flexible and adaptive tool designed to identify short-term support and resistance levels using the concept of price pivots.
### Key Elements of the Strategy
1. Pivot points as support and resistance levels
Pivots are significant turning points on the price chart, often marking local highs and lows where the price has reversed direction. A pivot high occurs when the price forms a local peak, while a pivot low occurs when the price forms a local trough. When a new pivot high is formed, it creates a resistance level. Conversely, when a new pivot low is formed, it creates a support level.
The strategy continuously updates these levels as new pivots are detected, ensuring they remain relevant to the current market conditions. By identifying these price levels, the strategy dynamically adjusts to market conditions, allowing it to adapt to both trending and ranging markets, since it has a long target and can perform reversal operations.
2. Entry Criteria
- Buy (Long): A long position is triggered when the price is near the support level and then crosses it from below to above. This suggests that the price has found support and may start moving upwards.
- Sell (Short): A short position is triggered when the price is near the resistance level and then crosses it from above to below. This indicates that the price may be reversing and moving downward.
3. Support/Resistance distance (%)
- This parameter establishes a percentage range around the identified support and resistance level. For example, if the Support Resistance Distance is 0.4% (default), the closing price must be within a range of 0.4% above support or below the resistance to be considered "close" and trigger a trade.
4. Exit criteria
- Take profit = 27 %
- Stop loss = 10 %
- Reversal if a new entry point is identified in the opposite direction
5. No Repainting
- The Dynamic Support and Resistance Pivot Strategy is not subject to repainting.
6. Position Sizing by Equity and risk management
- This strategy has a default configuration to operate with 35% of the equity. The stop loss is set to 10% from the entry price. This way, the strategy is putting at risk about 10% of 35% of equity, that is, around 3.5% of equity for each trade. The percentage of equity and stop loss can be adjusted by the user according to their risk management.
7. Backtest results
- This strategy was subjected to backtest and operations in replay mode on **1000000MOGUSDT.P**, with the inclusion of transaction fees at 0.12% and slipagge of 5 ticks, and the past results have shown consistent profitability. Past results are no guarantee of future results. The strategy's backtest results may even be due to overfitting with past data.
8. Chart Visualization
- Support and resistance levels are displayed as green (support) and red (resistance) lines.
- Pivot prices are displayed as green (pivot low) and red (pivot high) labels.
In this image above, the Support/Resistance distance (%) parameter was set to 0.8.

Price Action StrategyThe **Price Action Strategy** is a tool designed to capture potential market reversals by utilizing classic reversal candlestick patterns such as Hammer, Shooting Star, Doji, and Pin Bar near dinamic support and resistance levels.
***Note to moderators
- The moving average was removed from the strategy because it was not suitable for the strategy and not participating in the entry or exit criteria.
- The moving average length has been replaced/renamed by the support/resistance lenght.
- The bullish engulfing and bearish engulfing patterns were also removed because in practice they were not working as entry criteria, since the candle price invariably closes far from the support/resistance level even considering the sensitivity range. There was no change in the backtest results after removing these patterns.
### Key Elements of the Strategy
1. Support and Resistance Levels
- Support and resistance are pivotal price levels where the asset has previously struggled to move lower (support) or higher (resistance). These levels act as psychological barriers where buying interest (at support) or selling interest (at resistance) often increases, potentially causing price reversals.
- In this strategy, support is calculated as the lowest low and resistance as the highest high over a 16-period length. When the price nears these levels, it indicates possible zones for a reversal, and the strategy looks for specific candlestick patterns to confirm an entry.
2. Candlestick Patterns
- This strategy uses classic reversal patterns, including:
- **Hammer**: Indicates a buy signal, suggesting rejection of lower prices.
- **Shooting Star**: Suggests a sell signal, showing rejection of higher prices.
- **Doji**: Reflects indecision and potential reversal.
- **Pin Bar**: Represents price rejection with a long shadow, often signaling a reversal.
By combining these reversal patterns with the proximity to dinamic support or resistance levels, the strategy aims to capture potential reversal movements.
3. Sensitivity Level
- The sensitivity parameter adjusts the acceptable range (Default 0.018 = 1.8%) around support and resistance levels within which reversal patterns can trigger trades (i.e. the closing price of the candle must occur within the specified range defined by the sensitivity parameter). A higher sensitivity value expands this range, potentially leading to less accurate signals, as it may allow for more false positives.
4. Entry Criteria
- **Buy (Long)**: A Hammer, Doji, or Pin Bar pattern near support.
- **Sell (Short)**: A Shooting Star, Doji, or Pin Bar near resistance.
5. Exit criteria
- Take profit = 9.5%
- Stop loss = 16%
6. No Repainting
- The Price Action Strategy is not subject to repainting.
7. Position Sizing by Equity and risk management
- This strategy has a default configuration to operate with 35% of the equity. The stop loss is set to 16% from the entry price. This way, the strategy is putting at risk about 16% of 35% of equity, that is, around 5.6% of equity for each trade. The percentage of equity and stop loss can be adjusted by the user according to their risk management.
8. Backtest results
- This strategy was subjected to deep backtest and operations in replay mode on **1000000MOGUSDT.P**, with the inclusion of transaction fees at 0.12% and slipagge of 5 ticks, and the past results have shown consistent profitability. Past results are no guarantee of future results. The strategy's backtest results may even be due to overfitting with past data.
9. Chart Visualization
- Support and resistance levels are displayed as green (support) and red (resistance) lines.
- Only the candlestick pattern that generated the entry signal to triger the trade is identified and labeled on the chart. During the operation, the occurrence of new Doji, Pin Bar, Hammer and Shooting Star patterns will not be demonstrated on the chart, since the exit criteria are based on percentage take profit and stop loss.

Rob Booker Reversal Tabs StrategyRob Booker Reversal Tabs Strategy is an updated version of Rob Bookers Reversal Tab study: Rob Booker Reversal Tabs
While the original is a Pinescript study, this version can be switched between strategy and indicator mode.
Rob Bookers script generates reversal signal based on MACD and Stochastics, it is not a true reversal system, default pyramiding value is set to 5.
Inputs determine MACD and Stochastics settings. The only additional input is the "Strategy Mode" checkbox.
This script works well on its own for some tickers, but like any reversal pattern generating scripts, traders will profit from looking at overall price action and trend strength before making a trade.
From the original:
A simple reversal pattern indicator that uses MACD and Stochastics.
Created by Rob Booker and programmed by Andrew Palladino.
Please note that I only updated the original to V5 and edited it to be a strategy, which was a grand total of 5 minutes of work. I updated it because I wanted to see how the script performs as a strategy and I'm publishing it in case others would like to use it. I take no credit whatsoever for the original and WILL take this version down if Rob Booker or his Team ask me to or decide to release their own strategy version of the original.

Range Strat - MACD/RSIThis strategy uses a trend based indicator (MACD) for entry/exit signals with a momentum oscillator (RSI) to act as confirmation. Although relying on a trend based indicator this has been created for range bound crypto markets, which have been in a period of chop since June 2022.
Long/Short signals are generated from MACD with the RSI oscillator thresholds suppressing entries at price extremes. This is not a mean reversion RSI strategy! As the indicators are contrary to each other you will need to be generous with the RSI settings in order for signals to trigger.
Strategy is designed for use on the 4h timeframe, it may work well on higher timeframes, but lower time frames will lead to false signals. Use fixed percentage of equity for order size to capture the compounding effect. As a reversal strategy bear in mind that should market trend strongly in either direction stops will be required.
The RSI thresholds can be tailored to provide higher frequency or safer signals. Similarly tweaking MACD settings will provide earlier/more frequent or safer signals. As this is intended to enter near range high / low you should check the visual cues to ensure a ping-pong effect is observed, so that peaks and troughs are captured. Once an observable range is established the strategy works well across a range of crypto markets,
The script is open source, so feel free to amend as you wish. Using a different momentum oscillator may provide better results. I have prior coding experience, but first time using PineScript was last night, so it's not very tidy. I will update this with some additional customisation and TP/SL in the near future.
Usage: Range bound markets
Markets: Cryptocurrency Alts/BTC/ETH
Timeframe: 4h
