3 Duck's Trading System from Babypips.comThe 3 Duck's Trading System from Babypips.com
The 3 Duck's Trading System is the most popular and active trading system thread on the the babypips.com forum. It is a system that is mainly for beginners because it teaches you discipline, learning to cope with price moving against your position and learning to stay in a trade and keep profits running. For the thread and more info on the 3 Duck's Trading System click here
How does it work?
The system is a very simple enter/exit based on the 60 SMA of 3 different time frames: 4 hour, 1 hour and 5 minute.
The Rules, er, the Ducks! The Ducks must all be in a row for a trade to take place!
Duck 1 - To go long, price must be above the 60 SMA on the 4 hour chart.
Duck 2 - To go long, price must be above the 60 SMA on the 1 hour chart.
Duck 3 - To go long, price must cross above the 60 SMA on the 5 minute chart and the 60 SMA of the 5 minute chart must be below that of the 4 hour and 1 hour chart. (obviously the reverse for shorting)
YOU MUST USE THIS SYSTEM ONLY ON THE 5 MINUTE CHART.
I say this because I have already charted all of the Ducks into the 5 minute chart so you don't have to flip back and forth.
I have also added some inputs for profit targets, stop targets, trailing stops and times to trade for backtesting.
If you have any questions or comments, please let me know! If you see I messed up on something, please let me know!
Also a VERY special thanks to the babypips.com user Captain_Currency . He wrote this strategy 10 years ago (2007 was 10 years ago?!) and he is still active on the thread and posting results and offering help!
Adam Smith - MovingAvg CrossSimple Moving Average Cross script. Test on stocks and currency. For stocks test shorter time periods, meaning intra-day time periods such as 3min to 30min and so on to fit what is best. For currency, try longer periods with this model such as day to weeks depending on which currency.
NOTE: Take a look at your Max Drawdowns when testing. This will be the main indicator once you figure out your time period for backtesting. This will also let you know how much money to save and/or hold back in savings for down periods.
Trend v4.0 Another updateYet another update, default settings can be customized to your needs. Be aware that while this is similar to the other versions, this can only repaint an active bar, but that slows it down by one period. You are warned. Be that as it may, the basic idea is the same; trying to capture the really strong moves into overbought or oversold territory as defined by Relative Strength index. In RSI mode, you can see the smoothing has slowed it down a bit, but warrants backtesting.
First green bar go long, First red bar go short, first white bar possible trend exhaustion. Or use crossovers and such, play with the inputs OB/OS, RSI length, signal length, tick length, swing length, as I said customize to your tastes. I offer no surety as to its efficacy, but we all learn.
Trade Responsibly,

Improved MinhPhan EMA VWAP RSI StrategyThis enhanced Pine Script, "Improved MinhPhan EMA VWAP RSI Strategy," is a sophisticated trend-following system that combines EMA crossover, VWAP confirmation, and RSI filtering to increase trade precision. It’s ideal for traders who want high-probability entries filtered by both momentum and volume-based market positioning.
The strategy enters a long trade when the fast EMA crosses above the slow EMA, the price is above the VWAP, and RSI is below the overbought threshold, indicating early trend confirmation without being overextended. Conversely, it opens short trades when the fast EMA crosses below the slow EMA, price is under VWAP, and RSI is above the oversold level.
The script also features customizable stop loss and take profit levels in ticks (default: 100 SL, 200 TP) and uses RSI-based exits to cut trades when momentum becomes overbought/oversold. VWAP resets daily, weekly, or monthly depending on your preference, allowing better adaptability to market structure.
Visual cues for entry points (green/red triangles) and plotted indicators (EMA and VWAP) provide clarity for manual or semi-automated trading.
This strategy is well-suited for crypto, forex, or stock intraday and swing trading, offering both precision and flexibility for backtesting and optimization.
Golden & Death CrossThis indicator highlights Golden Cross and Death Cross signals based on customizable moving averages. It is ideal for swing traders and trend-following strategies across various timeframes.
🔍 Features:
Customizable moving average types: Choose between Simple Moving Average (SMA) and Exponential Moving Average (EMA)
Flexible MA lengths: Default 50/200, but can be adjusted to any short/long period (e.g., 9/21 for crypto)
Clear visual markers: Plots labels directly on the chart where crossovers occur
Alert support: Built-in alerts for Golden and Death Cross events
Overlay-enabled: MAs and signals display directly over price action
📈 Signal Logic:
Golden Cross = Short MA crosses above Long MA → bullish signal
Death Cross = Short MA crosses below Long MA → bearish signal
Common configurations:
50/200 EMA → Long-term trend shifts
9/21 EMA → Short-term momentum
🔔 Alerts:
You can create alerts using:
Golden Cross Alert: Triggers on bullish crossover
Death Cross Alert: Triggers on bearish crossover
✅ Use Cases:
Spot major trend shifts
Confirm entry/exit points with moving average dynamics
Combine with volume, RSI, or other filters for advanced strategies
Notes:
This is a basic yet powerful crossover tool. For more advanced filtering, trend confirmation, or backtesting logic, feel free to clone and expand it.

Triangle Breakout Strategy with TP/SL, EMA Filter📌 Triangle Breakout Strategy with TP/SL, EMA Filters, and Backtest – Explained.
✅ 1. Pattern Detection – Triangle Breakout
The script scans for triangle patterns by detecting local pivot highs and pivot lows.
It uses two recent highs and two recent lows to draw converging trendlines (upper and lower boundaries of the triangle).
If the price breaks above the upper trendline, a bullish breakout signal is generated.
🎯 2. TP (Take Profit) & SL (Stop Loss)
When a bullish breakout is detected:
A buy order is placed using strategy.entry.
TP and SL levels are calculated relative to the current close price:
TP = 3% above the entry price
SL = 1.5% below the entry price
These are defined using strategy.exit.
📊 3. EMA Filter
An optional filter checks if:
Price is above both EMA 20 and EMA 50
Only if this condition is met, the strategy allows a long entry.
You can toggle the filter on or off with useEMAFilter.
📈 4. Backtesting with Strategy Tester
This script uses strategy() instead of indicator() to enable TradingView’s built-in backtest engine.
Every buy entry and exit (based on TP or SL) is recorded.
📌 5. Visuals
EMA 20 and EMA 50 lines are plotted on the chart.
A label is shown when a breakout is detected: "Breakout Up"
Results (profit, win rate, drawdown, etc.) can be viewed in the Strategy Tester panel.
MinhPhan MA Crossover Strategy RSIThis Pine Script implements a trend-following strategy using a Moving Average Crossover combined with RSI-based exit conditions for optimal trade timing. Designed for short- to medium-term trading, the strategy enters a long position when the short-term EMA crosses above the long-term EMA, and a short position when it crosses below — a classic momentum signal. The default settings use a 9-period and 21-period EMA, but you can customize these values in the input panel.
To enhance risk management and trade timing, the script exits long positions when RSI exceeds 70 (indicating overbought conditions) and exits short positions when RSI drops below 30 (oversold), with fixed profit and loss targets of 200 and 100 points, respectively. This creates a balanced approach combining technical momentum with RSI reversal detection.
Additionally, the script includes commission modeling (0.1% default) to simulate real trading conditions more accurately. Visual aids like EMA9 and EMA21 overlays help traders validate signals visually.
Ideal for cryptocurrencies like BTC and SUI on any timeframe, this script allows for easy backtesting and optimization. It's a great starting point for traders looking to automate and refine a clean crossover-based strategy with proper risk control.

Reverse Keltner Channel StrategyReverse Keltner Channel Strategy
Overview
The Reverse Keltner Channel Strategy is a mean-reversion trading system that capitalizes on price movements between Keltner Channels. Unlike traditional Keltner Channel strategies that trade breakouts, this system takes the contrarian approach by entering positions when price returns to the channel after overextending.
Strategy Logic
Long Entry Conditions:
Price crosses above the lower Keltner Channel from below
This signals a potential reversal after an oversold condition
Position is entered at market price upon signal confirmation
Long Exit Conditions:
Take Profit: Price reaches the upper Keltner Channel
Stop Loss: Placed at half the channel width below entry price
Short Entry Conditions:
Price crosses below the upper Keltner Channel from above
This signals a potential reversal after an overbought condition
Position is entered at market price upon signal confirmation
Short Exit Conditions:
Take Profit: Price reaches the lower Keltner Channel
Stop Loss: Placed at half the channel width above entry price
Key Features
Mean Reversion Approach: Takes advantage of price tendency to return to mean after extreme moves
Adaptive Stop Loss: Stop loss dynamically adjusts based on market volatility via ATR
Visual Signals: Entry points clearly marked with directional triangles
Fully Customizable: All parameters can be adjusted to fit various market conditions
Customizable Parameters
Keltner EMA Length: Controls the responsiveness of the channel (default: 20)
ATR Multiplier: Determines channel width/sensitivity (default: 2.0)
ATR Length: Affects volatility calculation period (default: 10)
Stop Loss Factor: Adjusts risk management aggressiveness (default: 0.5)
Best Used On
This strategy performs well on:
Currency pairs with defined ranging behavior
Commodities that show cyclical price movements
Higher timeframes (4H, Daily) for more reliable signals
Markets with moderate volatility
Risk Management
The built-in stop loss mechanism automatically adjusts to market conditions by calculating position risk relative to the current channel width. This approach ensures that risk remains proportional to potential reward across varying market conditions.
Notes for Optimization
Consider adjusting the EMA length and ATR multiplier based on the specific asset and timeframe:
Lower values increase sensitivity and generate more signals
Higher values produce fewer but potentially more reliable signals
As with any trading strategy, thorough backtesting is recommended before live implementation.
Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always practice sound risk management.
Seekho roj kamao StrategyThe "Seekho Roj Kamao Strategy" is a powerful backtesting tool designed to identify high-probability trend continuation setups. It combines RSI, Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO), and adaptive ATR-based trailing stop logic to detect precise entry points and manage risk through automated take profit (1R, 2R, 3R) and stop loss levels. This strategy dynamically evaluates trend direction shifts using price action and momentum divergence, enabling traders to test robust trading scenarios with clearly defined exits. Ideal for forex, crypto, and stock traders, it allows full customization of sensitivity and volatility filters, making it suitable for both intraday and swing trading approaches.
Bollinger + EMA Strategy with StatsThis strategy is a mean-reversion trading model that combines Bollinger Band deviation entries with EMA-based exits. It enters a long position when the price drops significantly below the lower Bollinger Band by a user-defined multiple of standard deviation (x), and a short position when the price exceeds the upper band by the same logic. To manage risk, it uses a wider Bollinger Band threshold (y standard deviations) as a stop loss, while take profit occurs when the price reverts to the n-period EMA, indicating mean reversion. The strategy maintains only one active position at a time—either long or short—and allocates a fixed percentage of capital per trade. Performance metrics such as equity curve, drawdown, win rate, and total trades are tracked and displayed for backtesting evaluation.

Wyckoff Advanced Swing Strategy by TIAMATCRYPTOStrategy Overview
This custom TradingView strategy combines four powerful trading methodologies - Wyckoff Market Cycles, Price Map Profiling, Mean Reversion, and Trend Following - into a comprehensive swing trading system. It provides extensive customization options and can be tailored for medium to long-term trading positions.
Key Components
1. Wyckoff Analysis
This component focuses on identifying market cycle phases as described by Richard D. Wyckoff:
Accumulation Phase: Identifies periods of smart money accumulation with above-average volume and falling price highs
Markup Phase: Detects strong uptrends with increasing prices supported by volume
Distribution Phase: Recognizes when smart money begins to distribute positions near market tops
Markdown Phase: Identifies downtrends when institutional investors are exiting positions
Special Formations: Detects "spring" patterns (false breakdowns followed by rapid reversals) and "upthrust" patterns (false breakouts)
2. Price Map Profile
Implements a simplified version of Market Profile / Volume Profile concepts:
Calculates Point of Control (POC) - the price level with the highest theoretical activity
Defines Value Area High (VAH) and Value Area Low (VAL) to establish the range where most price action occurs
Visual representation of these key levels to identify potential support and resistance zones
3. Mean Reversion
Identifies potential reversal points when price moves to extremes:
Uses Bollinger Bands to define overbought and oversold price zones
Incorporates RSI divergence to confirm potential reversals
Requires multiple confirmation signals to avoid false entries in strong trends
Employs pattern recognition for higher probability mean reversion trade setups
4. Trend Following
Captures medium to long-term directional price movements:
Utilizes multiple moving averages (9, 21, 50, 200 EMAs) to confirm trend direction and strength
MACD analysis for momentum confirmation and trend intensity
Higher timeframe trend alignment through recent price structure analysis
Requires clear higher highs/higher lows (or lower highs/lower lows) for trade confirmation
Advanced Features
Risk Management
Optional automatic Take Profit and Stop Loss based on ATR (Average True Range)
Trailing stop functionality that adjusts to market volatility
Position sizing as a percentage of equity for proper risk management
Multiple exit strategies based on time, price, or indicator signals
Time-Based Filters
Customizable date range for backtesting historical performance
Trading day filters to avoid entering positions on less favorable days (Fridays/Mondays)
Minimum and maximum holding periods to match swing trading timeframes
Smart exit timing based on market conditions and holding duration
Signal Optimization
Combined signal approach requiring confirmation from multiple systems
Candlestick pattern analysis for enhanced entry timing
RSI-based position exit rules to capture profits at overbought/oversold conditions
Advanced filtering to reduce false signals and avoid low-probability setups
Practical Applications
This strategy is designed for swing traders who:
Hold positions for several days to weeks
Prefer to analyze multiple factors before entering trades
Want to align with institutional money flow through Wyckoff principles
Seek a balance between trend-following and reversal opportunities
Require flexible risk management options
The system works best on daily timeframes for equities, forex, commodities, and cryptocurrency markets with sufficient liquidity. It can be used as a standalone trading system or as a confirmation tool alongside other analysis methods.
Strategy Parameters
All major components can be enabled or disabled independently:
Wyckoff Analysis
Price Map Profiling
Mean Reversion
Trend Following
Risk parameters, timeframes, and technical indicators can be extensively customized to match individual trading preferences, market conditions, and risk tolerance.
Multi-Day VWAP, current session only)Variation on multi day vwap, where you can choose to display 1, 2 and 3 day vwap, but only plot the current session. So each session has all 3 plots. This is especially useful for backtesting purposes. St. deviation bands included as usual.
EMA Crossover BackgroundWhen the chart closes above or below the EMA, the background color changes.
"Useful if you want to trade in the trend direction but don't always want to look at the EMA. For example, in an aggressive up or down trend, the EMA is far away on lower time frames, but you can instantly see if it’s above or below, which makes backtesting easier too."
MA Crossover Crossunder Strategy [UOI]Simple MA Crossover Crossunder Strategy Tester
📌 Purpose:
This strategy is designed to backtest and automate entries and exits based on the crossover and crossunder of two configurable moving averages. It provides traders with flexibility in selecting the moving average type and length to adapt the system to various market conditions and asset classes. To see the win ratio of each strategy (different length and different MA type) click on Strategy tester below the chart (at the bottom of the page).
🟦 Does it work?
Short answer: No — not on its own.
Unless you have a solid understanding of volume and price action, and you implement effective stop-loss and take-profit rules, the win ratio is typically poor for automated trading. However, incorporating other market dynamics can help improve the strategy's performance.
⚙️ Core Features:
🟦 User-Defined Inputs:
shortLength: Length for the short-term moving average (default: 10)
longLength: Length for the long-term moving average (default: 50)
maType: Type of moving average to apply (options include: "SMA", "EMA", "WMA", "VWMA", "RMA", "HMA")
🧮 Moving Average Function (ma):
The strategy includes a custom ma() function that dynamically computes the moving average of the selected type:
SMA (Simple Moving Average)
EMA (Exponential Moving Average)
WMA (Weighted Moving Average)
VWMA (Volume-Weighted Moving Average)
RMA (Running Moving Average / SMMA)
HMA (Hull Moving Average): Calculated using the WMA of a de-trended intermediate series with a square root length for faster response and reduced lag.
This design allows users to test multiple MA methodologies without rewriting code.
🟧 Entry & Exit Logic:
✅ Long Entry:
Triggered when the short-term MA crosses above the long-term MA (ta.crossover()).
Any existing short positions are closed immediately.
❌ Short Entry:
Triggered when the short-term MA crosses below the long-term MA (ta.crossunder()).
Any existing long positions are closed immediately.
This structure ensures that only one active position (long or short) is held at any given time, making the strategy fully reversible and directional.
📊 Visual Representation:
Both MAs are plotted on the chart for visual confirmation.
Short MA: Blue
Long MA: Orange
The chart overlays allow for easy manual verification of signal points and trend alignment.
📈 Execution Parameters:
The strategy uses strategy.percent_of_equity for position sizing, set to 100% of account equity per trade.
Works on any timeframe — users can switch chart resolution for different backtesting horizons (scalping to swing trading).
For instance Try VWMA 10 over 50 with SPX on 30 and 45 minutes time frame and you will see great results. But if you try that with SPY you will get different win ratio.
❌ Do you recommend using a moving average crossover strategy?
❌ No — I use it only as confirmation alongside other indicators.
❌ Only traders with contextual knowledge of price action and volume analysis should use MA strategies.

HOW TO USE
Adding the Indicator: Start by adding the L3 Trend Box to your TradingView chart via the indicators menu.
Parameter Configuration: Adjust each parameter according to your trading style and market volatility. For instance, increasing the High Length can make the indicator less sensitive to minor fluctuations but more responsive to significant trends.
Monitoring Signals: Keep an eye on the plotted lines and labels. Pay special attention to the crossover events between the fast EMA and the lower box bottom, as these often signify strong buy signals.
Setting Alerts: Configure alerts based on the buy/sell conditions provided by the indicator. This ensures you never miss an opportunity due to inattention.
Combining Strategies: While powerful on its own, combining this indicator with others like RSI or Bollinger Bands can enhance its predictive power and reduce false positives.
