VIDYA Trend StrategyOne of the most common messages I get is people reaching out asking for quantitative strategies that trade cryptocurrency. This has compelled me to write this script and article, to help provide a quantitative/technical perspective on why I believe most strategies people write for crypto fail catastrophically, and how one might build measures within their strategies that help reduce the risk of that happening. For those that don't trade crypto, know that these approaches are applicable to any market.
I will start off by qualifying up that I mainly trade stocks and ETFs, and I believe that if you trade crypto, you should only be playing with money you are okay with losing. Most published crypto strategies I have seen "work" when the market is going up, and fail catastrophically when it is not. There are far more people trying to sell you a strategy than there are people providing 5-10+ year backtest results on their strategies, with slippage and commissions included, showing how they generated alpha and beat buy/hold. I understand that this community has some really talented people that can create some really awesome things, but I am saying that the vast majority of what you find on the internet will not be strategies that create alpha over the long term.
So, why do so many of these strategies fail?
There is an assumption many people make that cryptocurrency will act just like stocks and ETFs, and it does not. ETF returns have more of a Gaussian probability distribution. Because of this, ETFs have a short term mean reverting behavior that can be capitalized on consistently. Many technical indicators are built to take advantage of this on the equities market. Many people apply them to crypto. Many of those people are drawn down 60-70% right now while there are mean reversion strategies up YTD on equities, even though the equities market is down. Crypto has many more "tail events" that occur 3-4+ standard deviations from the mean.
There is a correlation in many equities and ETF markets for how long an asset continues to do well when it is currently doing well. This is known as momentum, and that correlation and time-horizon is different for different assets. Many technical indicators are built based on this behavior, and then people apply them to cryptocurrency with little risk management assuming they behave the same and and on the same time horizon, without pulling in the statistics to verify if that is actually the case. They do not.
People do not take into account the brokerage commissions and slippage. Brokerage commissions are particularly high with cryptocurrency. The irony here isn't lost to me. When you factor in trading costs, it blows up most short-term trading strategies that might otherwise look profitable.
There is an assumption that it will "always come back" and that you "HODL" through the crash and "buy more." This is why Three Arrows Capital, a $10 billion dollar crypto hedge fund is now in bankruptcy, and no one can find the owners. This is also why many that trade crypto are drawn down 60-70% right now. There are bad risk practices in place, like thinking the martingale gambling strategy is the same as dollar cost averaging while also using those terms interchangeably. They are not the same. The 1st will blow up your trade account, and the 2nd will reduce timing risk. Many people are systematically blowing up their trade accounts/strategies by using martingale and calling it dollar cost averaging. The more risk you are exposing yourself too, the more important your risk management strategy is.
There is an odd assumption some have that you can buy anything and win with technical/quantitative analysis. Technical analysis does not tell you what you should buy, it just tells you when. If you are running a strategy that is going long on an asset that lost 80% of its value in the last year, then your strategy is probably down. That same strategy might be up on a different asset. One might consider a different methodology on choosing assets to trade.
Lastly, most strategies are over-fit, or curve-fit. The more complicated and more parameters/settings you have in your model, the more likely it is just fit to historical data and will not perform similar in live trading. This is one of the reasons why I like simple models with few parameters. They are less likely to be over-fit to historical data. If the strategy only works with 1 set of parameters, and there isn't a range of parameters around it that create alpha, then your strategy is over-fit and is probably not suitable for live trading.
So, what can I do about all of this!?
I created the VIDYA Trend Strategy to provide an example of how one might create a basic model with a basic risk management strategy that might generate long term alpha on a volatile asset, like cryptocurrency. This is one (of many) risk management strategies that can reduce the volatility of your returns when trading any asset. I chose the Variable Index Dynamic Average (VIDYA) for this example because it's calculation filters out some market noise by taking into account the volatility of the underlying asset. I chose a trend following strategy because regressions are capturing behaviors that are not just specific to the equities market.
The more volatile an asset, the more you have to back-off the short term price movement to effectively trend-follow it. Otherwise, you are constantly buying into short term trends that don't represent the trend of the asset, then they reverse and loose money. This is why I am applying a trend following strategy to a 4 hour chart and not a 4 minute chart. It is also important to note that following these long term trends on a volatile asset exposes you to additional risk. So, how might one mitigate some of that risk?
One of the ways of reducing timing risk is scaling into a trade. This is different from "doubling down" or "trippling down." It is really a basic application of dollar cost averaging to reduce timing risk, although DCA would typically happen over a longer time period. If it is really a trend you are following, it will probably still be a trend tomorrow. Trend following strategies have lower win rates because the beginning of a trend often reverses. The more volatile the asset, the more likely that is to happen. However, we can reduce risk of buying into a reversal by slowly scaling into the trend with a small % of equity per trade.
Our example "VIDYA Trend Strategy" executes this by looking at a medium-term, volatility adjusted trend on a 4 hour chart. The script scales into it with 4% of the account equity every 4-hours that the trend is still up. This means you become fully invested after 25 trades/bars. It also means that early in the trade, when you might be more likely to experience a reversal, most of your account equity is not invested and those losses are much smaller. The script sells 100% of the position when it detects a trend reversal. The slower you scale into a trade, the less volatile your equity curve will be. This model also includes slippage and commissions that you can adjust under the "settings" menu.
This fundamental concept of reducing timing risk by scaling into a trade can be applied to any market.
Disclaimer: This is not financial advice. Open-source scripts I publish in the community are largely meant to spark ideas that can be used as building blocks for part of a more robust trade management strategy. If you would like to implement a version of any script, I would recommend making significant additions/modifications to the strategy & risk management functions. If you don’t know how to program in Pine, then hire a Pine-coder. We can help!

On-Chain Signals [LuxAlgo]The On-Chain Signals indicator uses fundamental blockchain metrics to provide traders with an objective technical view of their favorite cryptocurrencies.
It uses IntoTheBlock datasets integrated within TradingView to generate four key signals: Net Network Growth, In the Money, Concentration, and Large Transactions.
Together, these four signals provide traders with an overall directional bias of the market. All of the data can be visualized as a gauge, table, historical plot, or average.
🔶 USAGE
The main goal of this tool is to provide an overall directional bias based on four blockchain signals, each with three possible biases: bearish, neutral, or bullish. The thresholds for each signal bias can be adjusted on the settings panel.
These signals are based on IntoTheBlock's On-Chain Signals.
Net network growth: Change in the total number of addresses over the last seven periods; i.e., how many new addresses are being created.
In the Money: Change in the seven-period moving average of the total supply in the money. This shows how many addresses are profitable.
Concentration: Change in the aggregate addresses of whales and investors from the previous period. These are addresses holding at least 0.1% of the supply. This shows how many addresses are in the hands of a few.
Large Transactions: Changes in the number of transactions over $100,000. This metric tracks convergence or divergence from the 21- and 30-day EMAs and indicates the momentum of large transactions.
All of these signals together form the blockchain's overall directional bias.
Bearish: The number of bearish individual signals is greater than the number of bullish individual signals.
Neutral: The number of bearish individual signals is equal to the number of bullish individual signals.
Bullish: The number of bullish individual signals is greater than the number of bearish individual signals.
If the overall directional bias is bullish, we can expect the price of the observed cryptocurrency to increase. If the bias is bearish, we can expect the price to decrease. If the signal is neutral, the price may be more likely to stay the same.
Traders should be aware of two things. First, the signals provide optimal results when the chart is set to the daily timeframe. Second, the tool uses IntoTheBlock data, which is available on TradingView. Therefore, some cryptocurrencies may not be available.
🔹 Display Mode
Traders have three different display modes at their disposal. These modes can be easily selected from the settings panel. The gauge is set by default.
🔹 Gauge
The gauge will appear in the center of the visible space. Traders can adjust its size using the Scale parameter in the Settings panel. They can also give it a curved effect.
The number of bars displayed directly affects the gauge's resolution: More bars result in better resolution.
The chart above shows the effect that different scale configurations have on the gauge.
🔹 Historical Data
The chart above shows the historical data for each of the four signals.
Traders can use this mode to adjust the thresholds for each signal on the settings panel to fit the behavior of each cryptocurrency. They can also analyze how each metric impacts price behavior over time.
🔹 Average
This display mode provides an easy way to see the overall bias of past prices in order to analyze price behavior in relation to the underlying blockchain's directional bias.
The average is calculated by taking the values of the overall bias as -1 for bearish, 0 for neutral, and +1 for bullish, and then applying a triangular moving average over 20 periods by default. Simple and exponential moving averages are available, and traders can select the period length from the settings panel.
🔶 DETAILS
The four signals are based on IntoTheBlock's On-Chain Signals. We gather the data, manipulate it, and build the signals depending on each threshold.

Ultimate Volatility Scanner by NHBprod - Requested by Client!Hey Everyone!
I created another script to add to my growing library of strategies and indicators that I use for automated crypto and stock trading! This strategy is for BITCOIN but can be used on any stock or crypto. This was requested by a client so I thought I should create it and hopefully build off of it and build variants!
This script gets and compares the 14-day volatility using the ATR percentage for a list of cryptocurrencies and stocks. Cryptocurrencies are preloaded into the script, and the script will show you the TOP 5 coins in terms of volatility, and then compares it to the Bitcoin volatility as a reference. It updates these values once per day using daily timeframe data from TradingView. The coins are then sorted in descending order by their volatility.
If you don't want to use the preloaded set of coins, you have the option of inputting your own coins AND/OR stocks!
Let me know your thoughts.
DCA Valuation & Unrealized GainsThis Pine Script for TradingView calculates and visualizes the relationship between a Dollar Cost Average (DCA) price and the All-Time High (ATH) price for over 50 different cryptocurrencies. Here's what it does:
1. Inputs for DCA Prices:
- Users can manually input DCA prices for specific cryptocurrencies (e.g., BTC, ETH, BNB).
2. Dynamic ATH Calculation:
- Dynamically calculates the ATH price for the current asset using the highest price in the chart's loaded data and persists this value across bars.
3. Percentage Change from DCA to ATH:
- Computes the percentage gain from the DCA price to the ATH price.
4. Visualizations:
- Draws a line at the DCA price and the ATH price, both extended to the right.
- Adds an arrow pointing from the DCA price to the ATH, offset by 10 bars into the future.
- Displays labels for:
- The percentage gain from DCA to ATH.
- "No DCA Configured" if no valid DCA price is set for the asset.
5. Color Coding:
- Labels and arrows are color-coded to indicate positive or negative percentage changes:
- Green for gains.
- Red for losses.
6. Adaptability:
- The script dynamically adjusts to the current asset based on its ticker and uses the corresponding DCA price.
This functionality provides traders with clear insights into their investment's performance relative to its ATH, aiding in decision-making.
-----
To add a new asset to the script:
1. Define the DCA Input: Add a new input for the asset's DCA price using the `input.float` function. For example:
dcaPriceNEW = input.float(title="NEW DCA Price", defval=0.1, tooltip="Set the DCA price for NEW")
2. Add the Asset Logic: Include a conditional check for the new asset in the ticker matching logic:
if str.contains(currentAsset, "NEW") and dcaPriceNEW != 0
dcaPrice := dcaPriceNEW
Where NEW is the ticker symbol of the asset you're adding.
NOTE: SOLO had to be put before SOL because otherwise the indicator was pulling the DCA price from SOL even on the SOLO chart. If you have a similar issue, try that fix.
Adding an asset requires only these two changes. Once done, the script dynamically incorporates the new asset into its calculations and visualizations.

Uptrick: Crypto Volatility Index** Crypto Volatility Index(VIX) **
Overview
The Crypto Volatility Index (VIX) is a specialized technical indicator designed to measure the volatility of cryptocurrency prices. Leveraging advanced statistical methods, including logarithmic returns and variance, the Crypto VIX offers a refined measure of market fluctuations. This approach makes it particularly useful for traders in the highly volatile cryptocurrency market, providing insights that traditional volatility indicators may not capture as effectively.
Purpose
The Crypto VIX aims to deliver a nuanced understanding of market volatility, tailored specifically for the cryptocurrency space. Unlike other volatility measures, the Crypto VIX employs sophisticated statistical methods to reflect the unique characteristics of cryptocurrency price movements. This makes it especially valuable for cryptocurrency traders, helping them navigate the inherent volatility of digital assets and manage their trading strategies and risk exposure more effectively.
Calculation
1. Indicator Declaration
The Crypto VIX is plotted in a separate pane below the main price chart for clarity:
indicator("Crypto Volatility Index (VIX)", overlay=false, shorttitle="Crypto VIX")
2. Input Parameters
Users can adjust the period length for volatility calculations:
length = input.int(14, title="Period Length")
3. Calculating Daily Returns
The daily returns are calculated using logarithmic returns:
returns = math.log(close / close )
- **Logarithmic Returns:** These returns provide a normalized measure of price changes, making it easier to compare returns over different periods and across different assets.
4. Average Return Calculation
The average return over the specified period is computed with a Simple Moving Average (SMA):
avg_return = ta.sma(returns, length)
5. Variance Calculation
Variance measures the dispersion of returns from the average:
variance = ta.sma(math.pow(returns - avg_return, 2), length)
- Variance : This tells us how much the returns deviate from the average, giving insight into how volatile the market is.
6. Standard Deviation (Volatility) Calculation
Volatility is derived as the square root of the variance:
volatility = math.sqrt(variance)
- Standard Deviation : This provides a direct measure of volatility, showing how much the price typically deviates from the mean return.
7. Plotting the Indicator
The volatility and average return are plotted:
plot(volatility, color=#21f34b, title="Volatility Index")
plot(avg_return, color=color.new(color.red, 80), title="Average Return", style=plot.style_columns)
Practical Examples
1. High Volatility Scenario
** Example :** During significant market events, such as major regulatory announcements or geopolitical developments, the Crypto VIX tends to rise sharply. For instance, if the Crypto VIX moves from a baseline level of 0.2 to 0.8, it indicates heightened market volatility. Traders might see this as a signal to adjust their strategies, such as reducing position sizes or setting tighter stop-loss levels to manage increased risk.
2. Low Volatility Scenario
** Example :** In a stable market, where prices fluctuate within a narrow range, the Crypto VIX will show lower values. For example, a drop in the Crypto VIX from 0.4 to 0.2 suggests lower volatility and stable market conditions. Traders might use this information to consider longer-term trades or take advantage of potential consolidation patterns.
Best Practices
1. Combining Indicators
- Moving Averages : Use the Crypto VIX with moving averages to identify trends and potential reversal points.
- Relative Strength Index (RSI): Combine with RSI to assess overbought or oversold conditions for better entry and exit points.
- Bollinger Bands : Pair with Bollinger Bands to understand volatility relative to price movements and spot potential breakouts.
2. Adjusting Parameters
- Short-Term Trading : Use a shorter period length (e.g., 7 days) to capture rapid volatility changes suitable for day trading.
- Long-Term Investing : A longer period length (e.g., 30 days) provides a smoother view of volatility, helping long-term investors navigate market trends.
Backtesting and Performance Insights
While specific backtesting data for the Crypto VIX is not yet available, the indicator is built on established principles of volatility measurement, such as logarithmic returns and standard deviation. These methods are well-regarded in financial analysis for accurately reflecting market volatility. The Crypto VIX is designed to offer insights similar to other effective volatility indicators, tailored specifically for the cryptocurrency markets. Its adaptation to digital assets and ability to provide precise volatility measures underscore its practical value for traders.
Originality and Uniqueness
The Crypto Volatility Index (VIX) distinguishes itself through its specialized approach to measuring volatility in the cryptocurrency markets. While the concepts of logarithmic returns and standard deviation are not new, the Crypto VIX integrates these methods into a unique framework designed specifically for digital assets.
- Tailored Methodology : Unlike generic volatility indicators, the Crypto VIX is adapted to the unique characteristics of cryptocurrencies, providing a more precise measure of price fluctuations that reflects the inherent volatility of digital markets.
- Enhanced Insights : By focusing on cryptocurrency-specific price behavior and incorporating advanced statistical techniques, the Crypto VIX offers insights that traditional volatility indicators might miss. This makes it a valuable tool for traders navigating the complex and fast-moving cryptocurrency landscape.
- Innovative Application : The Crypto VIX combines established financial metrics in a novel way, offering a fresh perspective on market volatility and contributing to more effective risk management and trading strategies in the cryptocurrency space.
Summary
The Crypto Volatility Index (VIX) is a specialized tool for measuring cryptocurrency market volatility. By utilizing advanced statistical methods such as logarithmic returns and standard deviation, it provides a detailed measure of price fluctuations. While not entirely original in its use of these methods, the Crypto VIX stands out through its tailored application to the unique characteristics of the cryptocurrency market. Traders can use the Crypto VIX to gauge market risk, adjust their strategies, and make informed trading decisions, supported by practical examples, best practices, and clear visual aids.

Kimchi Premium / Korean Premium ALL TICKERSKimchi Premium
Due to the isolated nature of Korean crypto markets, Koreans pay a hefty premium on most cryptos. (Usually ranging from 3% to 5%). This is colloquially known as the " Kimchi Premium ".
Uses
The extend of this premium can be used to gauge Korean sentiment towards certain tickers. Most of the insane alt coin rallies that are started by Korean degens are missed by foreign traders entirely. This script seeks to fix that.
Notes
This script automatically detects your current ticker and compares the USDT pair to the KRW pair after adjusting for exchange rate.
Works on all USDT, USDC, BUSD, FDUSD, USD, USDT.P, USDC.P or KRW pairs. Will obviously throw an error if your ticker has no KRW pairing.
Blockunity Stablecoin Liquidity (BSL)Monitor the liquidity of the crypto market by tracking the capitalizations of the major Stablecoins.
Stablecoin Liquidity (BSL) is an ideal tool for visualizing data on major Stablecoins. The number of Stablecoins in circulation is one of the best indices of liquidity within the crypto market. It’s an important metric to keep an eye on, as an increase in the number of Stablecoins in circulation offers a great opportunity to see cryptoasset prices rise. The tool’s multiple on-board display modes enable analysis of its data in the best possible conditions.
The Idea
The goal is to provide the community with the ideal tool to visualize the liquidity of the crypto market, via the state of the market capitalizations of the major Stablecoins.
How to Use
The tool is very easy to use and interpret. First of all, let's distinguish two main elements:
The chart as 3 distinct display modes to let you observe data in the best possible conditions.
There is a panel that summarizes the market capitalizations of the main Stablecoins.
Display Mode: Cumulative
In Cumulative mode (default), the different capitalizations are displayed one on top of the other with colored bands.
You can see that when the number of Stablecoins in circulation increases, crypto asset prices enter an uptrend. And if the liquidity of Stablecoins dries up, the trend will become bearish.
Display Mode: Aggregated
Aggregated mode displays a single line, which is the sum of the different capitalizations, varying between green and red depending on the state of this data according to its moving average declared in the 'Aggregated MA Lengh' field.
You can thus easily see trend changes and therefore opportunities to enter or exit the crypto market.
Display Mode: Independent
The Independent mode also displays the different capitalizations, but detached from each other with labels.
This display mode is particularly interesting for studying transfers from one Stablecoin to another, as can be seen below.
Other Settings
You can choose whether or not to include each of the Stablecoins data, and configure their display color. Note that in 'Cumulative' display mode, the data is taken into account even if the box is unchecked.
How it Works
The tool works in a simple way: We take the market capitalization data of the Stablecoins that interest us, then we process them according to the different display modes.
Let us know if you would like other ways of visualizing this data!
Big Whale Purchases and SalesBig Whale Purchases and Sales - plots big whale transactions on your chart!
People that hold more than 1% of a crypto currencies circulating supply are considered whales and have a huge influence on price, not just because they can move the market with their huge transactions, but also because other traders often track their wallets and follow their example. Taking a look at whale holdings, one can see why whale worship is so common in crypto: While Bitcoin has a relatively low whale concentration, many of the Top 100 Cryptocurrencies have whales control 60% or more of their circulating supply.
Integrating IntoTheBlock data, this script plots the transactions of these whales and, in strategy mode, copy trades them.
Features:
Strategy Mode: Switches the script between an indicator and a strategy.
Standard Deviations: The number of Standard Deviations that a transaction needs to surpass to be considered worth plotting. Setting this to 0 will show all whale transactions, higher settings will only show the biggest transactions.
Blockchain: The Chain on which Whale activity is tracked.
All Time High Warning - Free Cryptohopper WidgetWelcome to our Tradingview coin prediction filter.
We designed this script to give Cryptohopper users the possibility to set up an alarm when btc is close to All Time High. Cause of the BTCs behavior as the supertrend coin for the market it is better to turn your hopper off or be extremly careful when BTC is close to ATH.
We recommend deactivating the hopper and deleting all positions. The risk of a larger drop is very high in this marketphase.
Smartgrow-Trading is a community project with the aim of developing the best and most successful trading strategies and sharing them with the community.
The basic idea of this script is to calculate how far an coin is away from its ATH, to gave warning signals for deactivating coins after they reached there ATH. So it could also be used for other coins and pairs.
If there are questions, write them into the comments or contact us directly over the direct message or social media. Happy Trading!
Tether Market Cap - {Cross-Exchange} Tether Market Cap Indicator
Keep track of tether movements cross exchange & total market cap in real-time.
Never miss a movement in the Tether market.
How it works
Starts by selecting the security "CRYPTOCAP:USDT" with, period, close,
The script will then call on each exchange listed to get the usdt_supply from each exchange.
It will then print the data to the indicator as such:
Yellow = Total Tether Market Cap
Orange = Kraken Supply USDT
Red = Poloniex Supply USDT
Green = Bitfinex Supply USDT
REAL STRATEGY : Dow_Factor_MFI/RSI_DVOG_StrategyI'm actually one of those who think it's more important to extract clues from indicators than strategy, but I wanted to test the data about the probability and dow factor I've shared for a long time.
Usually, Bitcoin is used as an eye stain for strategy success, since the graph has increased significantly from the beginning.
To prevent this, I used a commission and in the last lines of document I shared Bitmex's Bitcoin and Ethereum 1W test results.
I don't think there's a factor to repaint. ( Warn me if u see or observe )
I considered Bitcoin because I found working with liquid parities much more realistic.
Ethereum and Bitmex have been featured as a spot and may soon find a place at the CME , so I've evaluated the Ethereum .
But since the Ethereum Bitmex was also spot new, I deleted results that were less than 10 closed trades.
Since the Dow Theory also looks at the harmony in the indices, just try it in the Cryptocurrency market.
Use as indicator in other markets. Support with channels, trend lines with big periods and other supportive indicators.
And my personal suggestion : Use this script and indicator TF : 4H and above.

It was a realistic test.
It has achieved great success in some markets, but as I mentioned earlier, use it only to gain insight into the price movements of cryptos.
Use as indicator in other markets.

SHIT35 Alt Index (ROC or Volume) [LucF]SHIT35 is an index of 35 Binance alt/BTC pairs. It provides traders with a more reliable read of BTC pairs price movement than the often uncorrelated USD market cap standard.
Because it must read data coming from 35 markets, SHIT35 is painfully slow and should be kept hidden most of the time. Its features will hopefully seduce traders in using it nonetheless for market analysis.
Features
The Index can be calculated using 4 different modes:
1. Total of instant rate of change for all 35 markets ,
2. Cumulative total of ROCs,
3. Average of ROCs,
4. Plus/Minus volume (an aggregate OBV, if you will).
Select only one of the methods at a time to prevent confusion between modes.
An option allows showing the correlation between the Index as it is configured, and another instrument (CRYPTOCAP:TOTAL2 by default).
Markers can be used to identify abnormal movements in the Index. They are generated using Index exits from Bollinger bands.
The chart shows the Index with, from top to bottom, the default mode with BTC pairs, with USDT pairs, then mode 2 and 4 for BTC pairs.
Index Components
The Index is not weighed. The 35 instruments composing the index all have equivalents in the USDT quote currency on Binance, so you can easily change to those pairs using the Settings. Choosing another exchange or quote currency will require modifications to the list of instruments in the indicator’s code, since if one of the markets cannot be found, the indicator will not work. If the instrument exists but has no history for some bars, zero values will be used for them.
Watchlists
I have created a watchlist for the 35 markets in each of the BTC and USDT quote currencies. To import the watchlists, save the text you’ll find at these links in a file named the way you want your watchlist to be named and import them using the “Import Watchlist…” function.
BTC Watchlist: pastebin.com
USDT Watchlist: pastebin.com
Alerts
You can define alerts on any combination of markers you configure. After defining the markers you want the alert to trigger on, make sure you are on the interval you want the alert to be monitoring at, then create the alert, select the indicator, use the default alert condition and choose your triggering window (usually “Once Per Bar Close”). Once the alert is created, you can change the indicator's inputs with no effect on the alert.
MACD + Stochastic + RSI StrategyMy strategy uses a combination of three indicators MACD Stochastic RSI.
The Idea is to buy when (MACD > Signal and RSI > 50 and Stochastic > 50) occures at the same time
This strategy works well on stocks and cryptos especially during market breaking up after consolidation
The best results are on Daily charts, so its NOT a scalping strategy. But it can work also on 1H charts.
The strategy does not have any stops and profit targets, so we can take all the market can give us at the moment.
The exit point only when MACD goes under Signal
Its Preformance is quite stable.
So, use it, trade it.

ONEUSDT Mean-Reversion Strategy | 74.68% Win Rate | 417% Net Profit
This is a long-only mean-reversion strategy designed specifically for ONEUSDT on the 1-hour timeframe. The core logic identifies oversold conditions following sharp declines and enters positions when selling pressure exhausts, capturing the subsequent recovery bounce.
Backtested Period: June 2019 – December 2025 (~6 years)
Performance Summary
| Metric | Value |
|--------|-------|
| Net Profit | +417.68% |
| Win Rate | 74.68% |
| Profit Factor | 4.019 |
| Total Trades | 237 |
| Sharpe Ratio | 0.364 |
| Sortino Ratio | 1.917 |
| Max Drawdown | 51.08% |
| Avg Win | +3.14% |
| Avg Loss | -2.30% |
| Buy & Hold Return | -80.44% |
Strategy Logic :
Entry Conditions (Long Only):
The strategy seeks confluence of three conditions that identify exhausted selling:
1. Prior Move Filter:*The price change from 5 bars ago to 3 bars ago must be ≥ -7% (ensures we're not entering during freefall)
2. Current Move Filter: The price change over the last 2 bars must be ≤ 0% (confirms momentum is stalling or reversing)
3. Three-Bar Decline: The price change from 5 bars ago to 3 bars ago must be ≤ -5% (confirms a significant recent drop occurred)
When all three conditions align, the strategy identifies a potential reversal point where sellers are exhausted.
Exit Conditions:
- Primary Exit: Close above the previous bar's high while the open of the previous bar is at or below the close from 9 bars ago (profit-taking on strength)
- Trailing Stop: 11x ATR trailing stop that locks in profits as price rises
Risk Management
- Position Sizing:Fixed position based on account equity divided by entry price
- Trailing Stop:11× ATR (14-period) provides wide enough room for crypto volatility while protecting gains
- Pyramiding:Up to 4 orders allowed (can scale into winning positions)
- **Commission:** 0.1% per trade (realistic exchange fees included)
Important Disclaimers
⚠️ This is NOT financial advice.
- Past performance does not guarantee future results
- Backtest results may contain look-ahead bias or curve-fitting
- Real trading involves slippage, liquidity issues, and execution delays
- This strategy is optimized for ONEUSDT specifically — results may differ on other pairs
- Always test before risking real capital
Recommended Usage
- Timeframe:*1H (as designed)
- Pair: ONEUSDT (Binance)
- Account Size: Ensure sufficient capital to survive max drawdown

Buy vs Sell Volume EMA + Smart Momentum Shift (Crypto)This is a volume-based momentum indicator for crypto that:
Splits total volume into buy vs. sell volume based on candle direction.
Applies EMAs to buy/sell volume and tracks slope and acceleration of those EMAs.
Looks for moments where buyer volume momentum is improving and seller momentum is fading.
Optionally requires RSI and/or MACD confirmation, a “near recent low” location filter, and a score threshold based on several micro-conditions.
Outputs:
Colored background depending on whether buy or sell volume dominates.
EMA crossover arrows (“Buy” and “Sell”) for simpler regime shifts.
Green dots (“Strong Buy Momentum Shift”) when all filters are satisfied.
Alert conditions for the above signals.
It runs in a separate pane (overlay=false) and is explicitly designed for crypto, but works on any symbol/interval.
Volume Threshold Levels - Crypto LidyaVolume Threshold Levels – Crypto Lidya
Understanding volume behavior is one of the most effective ways to detect trend changes, manipulation candles, aggressive entries, and institutional activity.
Volume Threshold Levels (VTL) not only displays raw volume but also calculates dynamic volume thresholds (2x – 3x – 4x) based on the moving average, allowing you to identify statistically meaningful volume anomalies with precision.
📌 1. Volume Columns
The indicator plots each bar’s volume using traditional column-style visualization.
Green: Bullish candle
Red: Bearish candle
Gray: Neutral candle
This helps traders clearly understand the relationship between price and volume.
📌 2. Average Volume Area
VTL offers two types of moving averages for volume:
SMA (Simple Moving Average)
EMA (Exponential Moving Average)
The average volume is drawn as a soft yellow area across the chart.
This area acts as the baseline for normal volume levels.
📌 3. Dynamic Threshold Lines (2x / 3x / 4x)
The script calculates and displays multipliers of the average volume:
2x Average
3x Average
4x Average
These levels appear as bright yellow lines.
They are extremely useful for identifying breakouts, traps, and aggressive institutional entries.
📌 4. Volume Spike Detection (Alerts)
VTL identifies upward crossovers where volume breaks above key levels:
1x Volume Signal
2x Volume Signal
3x Volume Signal
4x Volume Signal
These can be used directly as TradingView alerts.
This allows you to automate detection of high-impact volume spikes.
📌 5. Use Cases
The indicator performs exceptionally well in:
Breakout confirmation
Liquidity sweep analysis
Detecting manipulation candles
Combining with OB, FVG, or other SMC structures
Scalping and low-timeframe aggressive volume interpretation
Algorithmic filters for volume-based strategies
📌 6. Summary
VTL delivers:
✔ Dynamic average volume baseline
✔ Clear 2x–3x–4x volume thresholds
✔ Accurate detection of upside volume explosions
✔ A strong tool for traders who rely on volume confirmation
Completely open-source and ready to be extended.
