Tristan's Tri-band StrategyTristan's Tri-band Strategy - Confluence Trading System
Strategy Overview:
This strategy combines three powerful technical indicators - RSI, Williams %R, and Bollinger Bands - into a single visual trading system. Instead of cluttering your chart with separate indicator panels, all signals are displayed directly on the price chart using color-coded gradient overlays, making it easy to spot high-probability trade setups at a glance.
How It Works:
The strategy identifies trading opportunities when multiple indicators align (confluence), suggesting strong momentum shifts:
📈 Long Entry Signals:
RSI drops to 30 or below (oversold)
Williams %R reaches -80 to -100 range (oversold)
Price touches or breaks below the lower Bollinger Band
All three conditions must align during your selected trading session
📉 Short Entry Signals:
RSI rises to 70 or above (overbought)
Williams %R reaches 0 to -20 range (overbought)
Price touches or breaks above the upper Bollinger Band
All three conditions must align during your selected trading session
Visual Indicators:
(faint) Green gradients below candles = Bullish oversold conditions (buying opportunity)
(faint) Red/Orange gradients above candles = Bearish overbought conditions (selling opportunity)
Stacked/brighter gradients = Multiple indicators confirming the same signal (higher probability) will stack and show brighter / less faint
Blue Bollinger Bands = Volatility boundaries and mean reversion zones
Exit Strategy:
Long trades exit when price reaches the upper Bollinger Band OR RSI becomes overbought (≥70)
Short trades exit when price reaches the lower Bollinger Band OR RSI becomes oversold (≤30)
Key Features:
✅ Session Filters - Trade only during NY (9:30 AM-4 PM), London (3 AM-11:30 AM), or Asia (7 PM-1 AM EST) sessions
✅ No Repainting - Signals are confirmed on candle close for realistic backtesting and live trading
✅ Customizable Parameters - Adjust RSI levels, BB standard deviations, Williams %R periods, and gradient visibility
✅ Visual Clarity - See all three indicators at once without switching between panels
✅ Built-in Alerts - Get notified when entry and exit conditions are met
How to Use Effectively:
Choose Your Trading Session - For day trading US stocks, enable only the NY session. For forex or 24-hour markets, select the sessions that match your schedule.
Look for Gradient Stacking - The brightest, most visible gradients occur when both RSI and Williams %R signal together. These are your highest-probability setups.
Confirm with Price Action - Wait for the candle to close before entering. The strategy enters on the next bar's open to prevent repainting.
Respect the Bollinger Bands - Entries occur at the outer bands (price extremes), and exits occur at the opposite band or when momentum reverses.
Backtest First - Test the strategy on your preferred instruments and timeframes. Works best on liquid assets with clear trends and mean reversion patterns (stocks, major forex pairs, indices).
Adjust Gradient Visibility - Use the "Gradient Strength" slider (lower = more visible) to make signals stand out on your chart style.
Best Timeframes: 5-minute to 1-hour charts for intraday trading; 4-hour to daily for swing trading (I have also found the 3 hour timeframe to work really well for some stocks / ETFs.)
Best Markets: Liquid instruments with volatility - SPY, QQQ, major stocks, EUR/USD, GBP/USD, major indices
Risk Management: This is a mean reversion strategy that works best in ranging or choppy markets. In strong trends, signals may appear less frequently. Always use proper position sizing and stop losses based on your risk tolerance.

Also, the 3 hour timeframe works VERY well—just a lot less trades.
📈 Proven Performance
This strategy has been backtested and optimized on multiple blue-chip stocks with 80-90%+ win rates on 1-hour timeframes from Aug 2025 through Oct 2025:
✅ V (Visa) - Payment processor
✅ MSFT (Microsoft) - Large-cap tech
✅ WMT (Walmart) - Retail leader
✅ IWM (Russell 2000 ETF) - Small-cap index
✅ NOW (ServiceNow) - Enterprise software
✅ WM (Waste Management) - Industrial services
These stocks tend to mean-revert at extremes, making them ideal candidates for this reversal-based approach. I only list these as a way to show you the performance of the script. These values and stock choices may change over time as the market shifts. Keep testing!
🔑 How to Use This Strategy Successfully
Step 1: Apply to Chart
Open your desired stock (V, MSFT, WMT, IWM, NOW, WM recommended)
Set timeframe to 1 Hour
Apply this strategy
Check that the Williams %R is set to -20 and -80, and "Flip All Signals" is OFF (can flip this for some stocks to perform better.)
Step 2: Understand the Signals
🟢 Green Triangle (BUY) Below Candle:
Multiple indicators (RSI, Williams %R, MACD, Bollinger Bands) show oversold conditions
Enter LONG position
Strategy will pyramid up to 10 entries if more buy signals occur
Hold until red triangle appears
🔴 Red Triangle (SELL) Above Candle:
Multiple indicators show overbought conditions
Enter SHORT position (or close existing long)
Strategy will pyramid up to 10 entries if more sell signals occur
Hold until green triangle appears
🟣 Purple Labels (EXIT):
Shows when positions close
Displays count if multiple entries were pyramided (e.g., "Exit Long x5")
Step 3: Let the Strategy Work
Key Success Principles:
✅ Be Patient - Signals don't occur every day, wait for quality setups
✅ Trust the Process - Don't manually close positions, let opposite signals exit
✅ Watch Pyramiding - The strategy can add up to 10 positions in the same direction
✅ No Stop Loss - Positions ride through drawdowns until reversal confirmed
✅ Session Filter - Only trades during NY session (9:30 AM - 4:00 PM ET)

**⭐ = Critical settings for success**
## 🎓 Strategy Logic Explained
### **How It Works:**
1. **Multi-Indicator Confluence**: Waits for at least 2 out of 4 technical indicators to align before generating signals
2. **Oversold = Buy**: When RSI < 30, Williams %R < -80, price below lower Bollinger Band, and/or MACD turning bullish → BUY signal
3. **Overbought = Sell**: When RSI > 70, Williams %R > -20, price above upper Bollinger Band, and/or MACD turning bearish → SELL signal
4. **Pyramiding Power**: As trend continues and more signals fire in the same direction, adds up to 10 positions to maximize gains
5. **Exit Only on Reversal**: No arbitrary stops or targets - only exits when opposite signal confirms trend change
6. **Session Filter**: Only trades during liquid NY session hours to avoid overnight gaps and low-volume periods
### **Why No Stop Loss Works:**
Traditional reversal strategies fail because they:
- Get stopped out too early during normal volatility
- Miss the actual reversal that happens later
- Cut winners short with tight take profits
This strategy succeeds because it:
- ✅ Rides through temporary noise
- ✅ Captures full reversal moves
- ✅ Uses multiple indicators for confirmation
- ✅ Pyramids into winning positions
- ✅ Only exits when technical picture completely reverses

Tip: Adjust "Min Indicators Aligned" based on market conditions:
Trending markets: Use 3-4 (fewer but stronger signals)
Range-bound markets: Use 2 (more signals, but watch for false breakouts)
TriAnchor Elastic Reversion US Market SPY and QQQ adaptedSummary in one paragraph
Mean-reversion strategy for liquid ETFs, index futures, large-cap equities, and major crypto on intraday to daily timeframes. It waits for three anchored VWAP stretches to become statistically extreme, aligns with bar-shape and breadth, and fades the move. Originality comes from fusing daily, weekly, and monthly AVWAP distances into a single ATR-normalized energy percentile, then gating with a robust Z-score and a session-safe gap filter.
Scope and intent
• Markets: SPY QQQ IWM NDX large caps liquid futures liquid crypto
• Timeframes: 5 min to 1 day
• Default demo: SPY on 60 min
• Purpose: fade stretched moves only when multi-anchor context and breadth agree
• Limits: strategy uses standard candles for signals and orders only
Originality and usefulness
• Unique fusion: tri-anchor AVWAP energy percentile plus robust Z of close plus shape-in-range gate plus breadth Z of SPY QQQ IWM
• Failure mode addressed: chasing extended moves and fading during index-wide thrusts
• Testability: each component is an input and visible in orders list via L and S tags
• Portable yardstick: distances are ATR-normalized so thresholds transfer across symbols
• Open source: method and implementation are disclosed for community review
Method overview in plain language
Base measures
• Range basis: ATR(length = atr_len) as the normalization unit
• Return basis: not used directly; we use rank statistics for stability
Components
• Tri-Anchor Energy: squared distances of price from daily, weekly, monthly AVWAPs, each divided by ATR, then summed and ranked to a percentile over base_len
• Robust Z of Close: median and MAD based Z to avoid outliers
• Shape Gate: position of close inside bar range to require capitulation for longs and exhaustion for shorts
• Breadth Gate: average robust Z of SPY QQQ IWM to avoid fading when the tape is one-sided
• Gap Shock: skip signals after large session gaps
Fusion rule
• All required gates must be true: Energy ≥ energy_trig_prc, |Robust Z| ≥ z_trig, Shape satisfied, Breadth confirmed, Gap filter clear
Signal rule
• Long: energy extreme, Z negative beyond threshold, close near bar low, breadth Z ≤ −breadth_z_ok
• Short: energy extreme, Z positive beyond threshold, close near bar high, breadth Z ≥ +breadth_z_ok
What you will see on the chart
• Standard strategy arrows for entries and exits
• Optional short-side brackets: ATR stop and ATR take profit if enabled
Inputs with guidance
Setup
• Base length: window for percentile ranks and medians. Typical 40 to 80. Longer smooths, shorter reacts.
• ATR length: normalization unit. Typical 10 to 20. Higher reduces noise.
• VWAP band stdev: volatility bands for anchors. Typical 2.0 to 4.0.
• Robust Z window: 40 to 100. Larger for stability.
• Robust Z entry magnitude: 1.2 to 2.2. Higher means stronger extremes only.
• Energy percentile trigger: 90 to 99.5. Higher limits signals to rare stretches.
• Bar close in range gate long: 0.05 to 0.25. Larger requires deeper capitulation for longs.
Regime and Breadth
• Use breadth gate: on when trading indices or broad ETFs.
• Breadth Z confirm magnitude: 0.8 to 1.8. Higher avoids fighting thrusts.
• Gap shock percent: 1.0 to 5.0. Larger allows more gaps to trade.
Risk — Short only
• Enable short SL TP: on to bracket shorts.
• Short ATR stop mult: 1.0 to 3.0.
• Short ATR take profit mult: 1.0 to 6.0.

The Bar Counter Trend Reversal Strategy [TradeDots]Overview
The Bar Counter Trend Reversal Strategy is designed to identify potential counter-trend reversal points in the market after a series of consecutive rising or falling bars.
By analyzing price movements in conjunction with optional volume confirmation and channel bands (Bollinger Bands or Keltner Channels), this strategy aims to detect overbought or oversold conditions where a trend reversal may occur.
🔹How it Works
Consecutive Price Movements
Rising Bars: The strategy detects when there are a specified number of consecutive rising bars (No. of Rises).
Falling Bars: Similarly, it identifies a specified number of consecutive falling bars (No. of Falls).
Volume Confirmation (Optional)
When enabled, the strategy checks for increasing volume during the consecutive price movements, adding an extra layer of confirmation to the potential reversal signal.
Channel Confirmation (Optional)
Channel Type: Choose between Bollinger Bands ("BB") or Keltner Channels ("KC").
Channel Interaction: The strategy checks if the price interacts with the upper or lower channel lines: For short signals, it looks for price moving above the upper channel line. For long signals, it looks for price moving below the lower channel line.
Customization:
No. of Rises/Falls: Set the number of consecutive bars required to trigger a signal.
Volume Confirmation: Enable or disable volume as a confirmation factor.
Channel Confirmation: Enable or disable channel bands as a confirmation factor.
Channel Settings: Adjust the length and multiplier for the Bollinger Bands or Keltner Channels.
Visual Indicators:
Entry Signals: Triangles plotted on the chart indicate potential entry points:
Green upward triangle for long entries.
Red downward triangle for short entries.
Channel Bands: The upper and lower bands are plotted for visual reference.
Strategy Parameters:
Initial Capital: $10,000.
Position Sizing: 80% of equity per trade.
Commission: 0.01% per trade to simulate realistic trading costs.
🔹Usage
Set up the number of Rises/Falls and choose whether if you want to use channel indicators and volume as the confirmation.
Monitor the chart for triangles indicating potential entry points.
Consider the context of the overall market trend and other technical factors.
Backtesting and Optimization:
Use TradingView's Strategy Tester to evaluate performance.
Adjust parameters to optimize results for different market conditions.
🔹 Considerations and Recommendations
Risk Management:
The strategy does not include built-in stop-loss or take-profit levels. It's recommended to implement your own risk management techniques.
Market Conditions:
Performance may vary in different market environments. Testing and adjustments are advised when applying the strategy to new instruments or timeframes.
No Guarantee of Future Results:
Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always perform due diligence and consider the risks involved in trading.
