Backtesting ModuleDo you often find yourself creating new 'strategy()' scripts for each trading system? Are you unable to focus on generating new systems due to fatigue and time loss incurred in the process? Here's a potential solution: the 'Backtesting Module' :)
INTRODUCTION
Every trading system is based on four basic conditions: long entry, long exit, short entry and short exit (which are typically defined as boolean series in Pine Script).
If you can define the conditions generated by your trading system as a series of integers, it becomes possible to use these variables in different scripts in efficient ways. (Pine Script is a convenient language that allows you to use the integer output of one indicator as a source in another.)
The 'Backtesting Module' is a dynamic strategy script designed to adapt to your signals. It boasts two notable features:
⮞ It produces a backtest report using the entry and exit variables you define.
⮞ It not only serves for system testing but also to combine independent signals into a single system. (This functionality enables to create complex strategies and report on their success!)
The module tests Golden and Death cross signals by default, when you enter your own conditions the default signals will be neutralized. The methodology is described below.
PREPARATION
There are three simple steps to connect your own indicator to the Module.
STEP 1
Firstly, you must define entry and exit variables in your own script. Let's elucidate it with a straightforward example. Consider a system generating long and short signals based on the intersections of two moving averages. Consequently, our conditions would be as follows:
// Signals
long = ta.crossover(ta.sma(close, 14), ta.sma(close, 28))
short = ta.crossunder(ta.sma(close, 14), ta.sma(close, 28))
Now, the question is: How can we convert boolean variables into integer variables? The answer is conditional ternary block, defined as follows:
// Entry & Exit
long_entry = long ? 1 : 0
long_exit = short ? 1 : 0
short_entry = short ? 1 : 0
short_exit = long ? 1 : 0
The mechanics of the Entry & Exit variables are simple. The variable takes on a value of 1 when your trading system generates the signal and if your system does not produce any signal, variable returns 0. In this example, you see how exit signals can be generated in a trading system that only contains entry signals. If you have a system with original exit signals, you can also use them directly. (Please mind the NOTES section below).
STEP 2
To utilize the Entry & Exit variables as source in another script, they must be plotted on the chart. Therefore, the final detail to include in the script containing your trading system would be as follows:
// Plot The Output
plot(long_entry, "Long Entry", display=display.data_window, editable=false)
plot(long_exit, "Long Exit", display=display.data_window, editable=false)
plot(short_entry, "Short Entry", display=display.data_window, editable=false)
plot(short_exit, "Short Exit", display=display.data_window, editable=false)
STEP 3
Now, we are ready to test the system! Load the Backtesting Module indicator onto the chart along with your trading system/indicator. Then set the outputs of your system (Long Entry, Long Exit, Short Entry, Short Exit) as source in the module. That's it.
FEATURES & ORIGINALITY
⮞ Primarily, this script has been created to provide you with an easy and practical method when testing your trading system.
⮞ I thought it might be nice to visualize a few useful results. The Backtesting Module provides insights into the outcomes of both long and short trades by computing the number of trades and the success percentage.
⮞ Through the 'Trade' parameter, users can specify the market direction in which the indicator is permitted to initiate positions.
⮞ Users have the flexibility to define the date range for the test.
⮞ There are optional features allowing users to plot entry prices on the chart and customize bar colors.
⮞ The report and the test date range are presented in a table on the chart screen. The entry price can be monitored in the data window.
⮞ Note that results are based on realized returns, and the open trade is not included in the displayed results. (The only exception is the 'Unrealized PNL' result in the table.)
STRATEGY SETTINGS
The default parameters are as follows:
⮞ Initial Balance : 10000 (in units of currency)
⮞ Quantity : 10% of equity
⮞ Commission : 0.04%
⮞ Slippage : 0
⮞ Dataset : All bars in the chart
For a realistic backtest result, you should size trades to only risk sustainable amounts of equity. Do not risk more than 5-10% on a trade. And ALWAYS configure your commission and slippage parameters according to pessimistic scenarios!
NOTES
⮞ This script is intended solely for development purposes. And it'll will be available for all the indicators I publish.
⮞ In this version of the module, all order types are designed as market orders. The exit size is the sum of the entry size.
⮞ As your trading conditions grow more intricate, you might need to define the outputs of your system in alternative ways. The method outlined in this description is tailored for straightforward signal structures.
⮞ Additionally, depending on the structure of your trading system, the backtest module may require further development. This encompasses stop-loss, take-profit, specific exit orders, quantity, margin and risk management calculations. I am considering releasing improvements that consider these options in future versions.
⮞ An example of how complex trading signals can be generated is the OTT Collection. If you're interested in seeing how the signals are constructed, you can use the link below.

Donchian Quest Research// =================================
Trend following strategy.
// =================================
Strategy uses two channels. One channel - for opening trades. Second channel - for closing.
Channel is similar to Donchian channel, but uses Close prices (not High/Low). That helps don't react to wicks of volatile candles (“stop hunting”). In most cases openings occur earlier than in Donchian channel. Closings occur only for real breakout.
// =================================
Strategy waits for beginning of trend - when price breakout of channel. Default length of both channels = 50 candles.
Conditions of trading:
- Open Long: If last Close = max Close for 50 closes.
- Close Long: If last Close = min Close for 50 closes.
- Open Short: If last Close = min Close for 50 closes.
- Close Short: If last Close = max Close for 50 closes.
// =================================
Color of lines:
- black - channel for opening trade.
- red - channel for closing trade.
- yellow - entry price.
- fuchsia - stoploss and breakeven.
- vertical green - go Long.
- vertical red - go Short.
- vertical gray - close in end, don't trade anymore.
// =================================
Order size calculated with ATR and volatility.
You can't trade 1 contract in BTC and 1 contract in XRP - for example. They have different price and volatility, so 1 contract BTC not equal 1 contract XRP.
Script uses universal calculation for every market. It is based on:
- Risk - USD sum you ready to loss in one trade. It calculated as percent of Equity.
- ATR indicator - measurement of volatility.
With default setting your stoploss = 0.5 percent of equity:
- If initial capital is 1000 USD and used parameter "Permit stop" - loss will be 5 USD (0.5 % of equity).
- If your Equity rises to 2000 USD and used parameter "Permit stop"- loss will be 10 USD (0.5 % of Equity).
// =================================
This Risk works only if you enable “Permit stop” parameter in Settings.
If this parameter disabled - strategy works as reversal strategy:
⁃ If close Long - channel border works as stoploss and momentarily go Short.
⁃ If close Short - channel border works as stoploss and momentarily go Long.
Channel borders changed dynamically. So sometime your loss will be greater than ‘Risk %’. Sometime - less than ‘Risk %’.
If this parameter enabled - maximum loss always equal to 'Risk %'. This parameter also include breakeven: if profit % = Risk %, then move stoploss to entry price.
// =================================
Like all trend following strategies - it works only in trend conditions. If no trend - slowly bleeding. There is no special additional indicator to filter trend/notrend. You need to trade every signal of strategy.
Strategy gives many losses:
⁃ 30 % of trades will close with profit.
⁃ 70 % of trades will close with loss.
⁃ But profit from 30% will be much greater than loss from 70 %.
Your task - patiently wait for it and don't use risky setting for position sizing.
// =================================
Recommended timeframe - Daily.
// =================================
Trend can vary in lengths. Selecting length of channels determine which trend you will be hunting:
⁃ 20/10 - from several days to several weeks.
⁃ 20/20 or 50/20 - from several weeks to several months.
⁃ 50/50 or 100/50 or 100/100 - from several months to several years.
// =================================
Inputs (Settings):
- Length: length of channel for trade opening/closing. You can choose 20/10, 20/20, 50/20, 50/50, 100/50, 100/100. Default value: 50/50.
- Permit Long / Permit short: Longs are most profitable for this strategy. You can disable Shorts and enable Longs only. Default value: permit all directions.
- Risk % of Equity: for position sizing used Equity percent. Don't use values greater than 5 % - it's risky. Default value: 0.5%.
⁃ ATR multiplier: this multiplier moves stoploss up or down. Big multiplier = small size of order, small profit, stoploss far from entry, low chance of stoploss. Small multiplier = big size of order, big profit, stop near entry, high chance of stoploss. Default value: 2.
- ATR length: number of candles to calculate ATR indicator. It used for order size and stoploss. Default value: 20.
- Close in end - to close active trade in the end (and don't trade anymore) or leave it open. You can see difference in Strategy Tester. Default value: don’t close.
- Permit stop: use stop or go reversal. Default value: without stop, reversal strategy.
// =================================
Properties (Settings):
- Initial capital - 1000 USD.
- Script don't uses 'Order size' - you need to change 'Risk %' in Inputs instead.
- Script don't uses 'Pyramiding'.
- 'Commission' 0.055 % and 'Slippage' 0 - this parameters are for crypto exchanges with perpetual contracts (for example Bybit). If use on other markets - set it accordingly to your exchange parameters.
// =================================
Big dataset used for chart - 'BITCOIN ALL TIME HISTORY INDEX'. It gives enough trades to understand logic of script. It have several good trends.

SMA Cross with a Price FilterA moving average strategy generates an entry (buy) signal when the price goes above the moving average, and an exit (sell) signal when the price goes below the moving average. But it gives lots of whipsaws and noise depends on the moving average we use. A fast moving average gives more whipsaws and a slow moving average gives less whipsaws. To reduce the noise/whipsaws, we can add a filter on a fast/slow moving average. It will improve entry/exit performance significantly specially for those who don't want to watch the market actively.
I created this indicator with a price filter. This means the price of an underlying asset must be at least a specific percentage above its moving average to generate a buy signal and a specific percentage below its moving average to generate a sell signal. This price filter can also be a confirmation after the price crosses above/below its SMA. I couldn't find any indicator yet based on this idea. So I wrote this indicator and publishing it so it helps those who are interested.
I use 200 SMA and 3% price filter as default and using SPY as an example. So,
ENTRY signal when the closing price of SPY is 3% above its 200 SMA.
EXIT signal when the closing price of SPY is 3% below its 200 SMA.
Enjoy and let me know if it works.
** This chart only generates entry (buy) and exit (sell) signals. Please, do your own diligence to make any investment or trading decisions.

Pocket Pivot BreakoutPocket Pivot Breakout Indicator
The pocket pivot breakout indicator will show a blue arrow under the candle if both the following conditions are met:
1. The percentage change of the candle on that day from open is greater than 3%.
2. The volume on the day of 3% candle is higher than the highest red volume in the past 10 days.
The second condition is based on the 'Pocket Pivot' concept developed by Gil Morales and Chris Kacher.
If only one of the conditions is met, while the other is not, there will be no arrow.
How to use the Pocket Pivot Breakout indicator?
1. If the stock is breaking out of a proper base like (cup & handle, Darvas box etc.), you can use the blue arrow as an indicator to make your initial buy.
2. If you already own a stock, the blue arrow indicator can be used for pyramiding, following a continuation breakout from a proper base.
3. Avoid making a new entry or continuation entry if the stock is too extended from 10ma.
Gap-up > 0.5% Indicator
Gap-up Indicator displays a blue colored candle when a stock gaps up by more than 0.5% compared to previous day's close.
It is turned off by default. To activate it, check the box next to Gap-up > 0.5% in the indicator options.
How to use the Gap-up Indicator?
1. When a stock gaps up, it usually indicates strength, especially if on the day of the gap-up, the stock closes strongly.
2. This indicator should not be used in isolation but with a proper base breakout from a tight consolidation.
3. If a stock is already extended from 10ma, avoid taking any new or continuation entries.
Precautions
1. Avoid buying longs when the general market conditions are not favorable.
2. Avoid buying stocks below 200ma.
3. Avoid making a new entry or pyramid entry if a stock is too extended from 10ma.
Important Points
1. Always choose fundamentally strong stocks showing strong growth in earnings/margins/sales.
2. Buy these fundamentally strong stocks when they are breaking out of proper bases.
3. To learn more about pocket pivots and buyable gap-ups, read the book, Trade Like an O'Neil Disciple (by Gil Morales & Chris Kacher).

Option Buying Pivot and SMA 3 Pivot crossoverThis script is designed as a visual aid for options trading specifically for option buying, providing information about potential entry points, Option levels, and trade outcomes. Here's a summary of the key elements:
1. Pivot Point and True Range:*
- The script calculates the current candle's pivot point, representing an average of high, low, and close prices from the previous candle.
- True range, a measure of volatility, is determined using the high, low, and close prices of the last two candles.
2. Option Levels:
- Downside (PutValue - Red colour line) and upside (CallValue - Green Colour line) are calculated based on the current pivot point and true range.
PutValue = currentCandlePivot + currentCandleTrueRange
CallValue = currentCandlePivot - currentCandleTrueRange
3. Simple Moving Average (SMA) of Pivot Point:
- A 3-period SMA is applied to the pivot point to smooth out fluctuations.
4. Trade Entry Logic:
- Long entry is signalled when the current pivot point is above the SMA. (longEntry = currentCandlePivot > smaPivot)
- At the time of long entry BUY THE CALL OPTION OR SELL THE PUT OPTION near the CallValue Green line
- Short entry is signalled when the current pivot point is below the SMA. (shortEntry = currentCandlePivot < smaPivot)
- At the time of Short entry BUY THE PUT OPTION OR SELL THE CALL OPTION near the PutValue Red line
The indicator having option to change the background of the candle as a green for long; and change the background of the candle as red for short. Also, Having the option to plot as label.
5. Win and Loss Logic:
- Winning conditions are assessed based on the close price relative to CallValue (for Long) and PutValue (for Short).
- Losing conditions are determined similarly.
- winLong = close > CallValue and longEntry
- winShort = close < PutValue and shortEntry
-lossLong = close < CallValue and longEntry
-lossShort = close > PutValue and shortEntry
The indicator having option to change the background of the candle as a green for win; and change the background of the candle as red for loss. Also, Having the option to plot as label.
6. Background Coloring and Plots:
- The script uses background colors to highlight Long, Short, Win, and Loss scenarios.
- Shapes and labels are plotted on the chart to visually represent entry points, stop-loss levels, and trade outcomes.
The overall purpose is to provide traders with a clear visual representation of potential trading opportunities and outcomes, helping them make informed decisions in the options market.
Pivot PointsDescription:
The Pivot Point indicator is designed to identify potential entry and exit points based on pivot points and manually tracks the average entry price and position size without executing actual trades, allowing for a visual simulation of pyramiding strategies.
Inputs for Customization:
i_leverage: User-defined leverage for trades.
i_takeProfit: Percentage for taking profit, adjusted by leverage.
i_dca: Percentage for dollar-cost averaging (DCA) when the price is a certain percentage below the entry, adjusted by leverage.
i_pivotFactor: Factor used to calculate the entry price from the pivot points.
i_pivotLength: The length of the lookback period to calculate the highest and lowest pivot points.
Usage Tips:
This indicator can be use by itself to provide entry and exit signals based on pivot points that will be generated from the provided `Pivot Factor`. An input of 1 will be the same as no factor.
This indicator can also be used as an input source for other indicators to facilitate other ideas.
Liquidations Meter [LuxAlgo]The Liquidation Meter aims to gauge the momentum of the bar, identify the strength of the bulls and bears, and more importantly identify probable exhaustion/reversals by measuring probable liquidations.
🔶 USAGE
This tool includes many features related to the concept of liquidation. The two core ones are the liquidation meter and liquidation price calculator, highlighted below.
🔹 Liquidation Meter
The liquidation meter presents liquidations on the price chart by measuring the highest leverage value of longs and shorts that have been potentially liquidated on the last chart bar, hence allowing traders to:
gauge the momentum of the bar.
identify the strength of the bulls and bears.
identify probable reversal/exhaustion points.
Liquidation of low-leveraged positions can be indicative of exhaustion.
🔹 Liquidation Price Calculator
A liquidation price calculator might come in handy when you need to calculate at what price level your leveraged position in Crypto, Forex, Stocks, or any other asset class gets liquidated to add a protective stop to mitigate risk. Monitoring an open position gets easier if the trader can calculate the total risk in order for them to choose the right amount of margin and leverage.
Liquidation price is the distance from the trader's entry price to the price where trader's leveraged position gets liquidated due to a loss. As the leverage is increased, the distance from trader's entry price to the liquidation price shrinks.
While you have one or several trades open you can quickly check their liquidation levels and determine which one of the trades is closest to their liquidation price.
If you are a day trader that uses leverage and you want to know which trade has the best outlook you can calculate the liquidation price to see which one of the trades looks best.
🔹 Dashboard
The bar statistics option enables measuring and presenting trading activity, volatility, and probable liquidations for the last chart bar.
🔶 DETAILS
It's important to note that liquidation price calculator tool uses a formula to calculate the liquidation price based on the entry price + leverage ratio.
Other factors such as leveraged fees, position size, and other interest payments have been excluded since they are variables that don’t directly affect the level of liquidation of a leveraged position.
The calculator also assumes that traders are using an isolated margin for one single position and does not take into consideration the additional margin they might have in their account.
🔹Liquidation price formula
the liquidation distance in percentage = 100 / leverage ratio
the liquidation distance in price = current asset price x the liquidation distance in percentage
the liquidation price (longs) = current asset price – the liquidation distance in price
the liquidation price (shorts) = current asset price + the liquidation distance in price
or simply
the liquidation price (longs) = entry price * (1 – 1 / leverage ratio)
the liquidation price (shorts) = entry price * (1 + 1 / leverage ratio)
Example:
Let’s say that you are trading a leverage ratio of 1:20. The first step is to calculate the distance to your liquidation point in percentage.
the liquidation distance in percentage = 100 / 20 = 5%
Now you know that your liquidation price is 5% away from your entry price. Let's calculate 5% below and above the entry price of the asset you are currently trading. As an example, we assume that you are trading bitcoin which is currently priced at $35000.
the liquidation distance in price = $35000 x 0.05 = $1750
Finally, calculate liquidation prices.
the liquidation price (longs) = $35000 – $1750 = $33250
the liquidation price (short) = $35000 + $1750 = $36750
In this example, short liquidation price is $36750 and long liquidation price is $33250.
🔹How leverage ratio affects the liquidation price
The entry price is the starting point of the calculation and it is from here that the liquidation price is calculated, where the leverage ratio has a direct impact on the liquidation price since the more you borrow the less “wiggle-room” your trade has.
An increase in leverage will subsequently reduce the distance to full liquidation. On the contrary, choosing a lower leverage ratio will give the position more room to move on.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹Liquidations Meter
Base Price: The option where to set the reference/base price.
🔹Liquidation Price Calculator
Liquidation Price Calculator: Toggles the visibility of the calculator. Details and assumptions made during the calculations are stated in the tooltip of the option.

Hull WavesThe Hull Waves indicator is based on the Hull Moving Averages (HMA), which are special moving averages that stand out for their ability to filter out market noise and offer a clearer view of price trends. Compared to traditional moving averages, HMAs are more responsive yet smoother, allowing traders to capture significant price movements without getting overwhelmed by short-term fluctuations.
The HMAs integrated into Hull Waves provide two distinct perspectives on the price trend:
8-period HMA: This short-term HMA is extremely reactive and closely follows price changes. It is ideal for capturing short-term trading signals while the medium-term 21-period HMA offers a more balanced view of price trends and identifies medium-term trends.
By crossing HMAs, traders can efficiently identify trend reversal points or strong market continuations.
Another feature of the indicator is the “fan” of dynamic lines, which acts as a visual float for price candles, allowing traders to quickly evaluate trading opportunities.
The "fan" or float of dynamic lines represents a visual representation of the candle's price movements. These lines extend from the start point to the end point, like an open fan. This visual approach makes the market dynamics immediately evident.
Strategy:
Long Entry Signal (Buy):
When the Hull Waves range shows a series of upward sloping lines and the Hull Moving Averages (e.g. 8-period HMA) crosses the 21-period HMA upwards, it is a long entry signal.
Confirmation of the signal can come from an increase in trader volume or other supporting indicators.
Place a buy order at the next closing price.
Short Entry Signal (Sell):
When the Hull Waves range shows a series of downward sloping lines and the Hull Moving Averages (e.g. 8-period HMA) crosses the 21-period HMA downward, it is a short entry signal.
Confirm the signal with an increase in trader volume or other relevant indicators.
Place a sell order at the next closing price.
Exit Signal (Closing a Position):
To close a long position, wait for a signal reversal, such as the Hull Moving Averages crossing downwards or a change in the Hull Waves range.
To close a short position, wait for a signal reversal, such as the Hull Moving Averages crossing higher or a change in the Hull Waves range.
Curved Management (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Curved Management (Zeiierman) is a trade management indicator tailored for traders looking to visualize their entry, stop loss, and take profit levels. Unique in its design, this indicator doesn't just display lines; it offers rounded or curved visualizations, setting it apart from conventional tools.
█ How It Works
At its core, this indicator leverages the power of the Average True Range (ATR), a metric for volatility, to establish logical stop-loss levels based on recent price action. By incorporating the ATR, the tool dynamically adapts to the market's changing volatility. What sets it apart is the unique curved visualization. Instead of the usual straight lines representing entry/sl levels, users can choose between rounded and straight edges for their take profit and stop loss levels. This aesthetic tweak gives the chart a cleaner look and offers a more intuitive understanding of risk management.
█ How to Apply the Indicator
Upon initially loading the indicator, a label appears that reads, "Set the 'xy' time and price for 'Curved Management (Zeiierman).'" This prompts you to click on the chart at your entry point. After selecting your entry point on the chart, the indicator will load. Ensure you adjust the trend direction in the settings panel based on whether you took a long or short position.
█ How to Use
Use the tool to manage your active position.
Long Entry
Short Entry
█ Settings
The indicator comes packed with various settings allowing customization:
Trade Direction
Decide the direction of the trade (long/short).
Reward multiplier
Sets the ratio for take profit relative to stop loss. Increasing this value will set your take profit further from the entry, and decreasing it will bring it closer.
Risk multiplier
Multiplier for calculating stop loss based on the ATR value. Increasing this makes your stop loss further from the entry, while decreasing brings it closer.

[blackcat] L1 MartinGale Scalping Strategy**MartinGale Strategy** is a popular money management strategy used in trading. It is commonly applied in situations where the trader aims to recover from a losing streak by increasing the position size after each loss.
In the MartinGale Strategy, after a losing trade, the trader doubles the position size for the next trade. This is done in the hopes that a winning trade will eventually occur, which will not only recover the previous losses but also generate a profit.
The idea behind the MartinGale Strategy is to take advantage of the law of averages. By increasing the position size after each loss, the strategy assumes that eventually, a winning trade will occur, which will not only cover the previous losses but also generate a profit. This can be especially appealing for traders looking for a quick recovery from a losing streak.
However, it is important to note that the MartinGale Strategy carries significant risks. If a trader experiences a prolonged losing streak or lacks sufficient capital, the strategy can lead to substantial losses. The strategy's reliance on the assumption of a winning trade can be dangerous, as there is no guarantee that a winning trade will occur within a certain timeframe.
Traders considering implementing the MartinGale Strategy should carefully assess their risk tolerance and thoroughly understand the potential drawbacks. It is crucial to have a solid risk management plan in place to mitigate potential losses. Additionally, traders should be aware that the strategy may not be suitable for all market conditions and may require adjustments based on market volatility.
In summary, the MartinGale Strategy is a money management strategy that involves increasing the position size after each loss in an attempt to recover from a losing streak. While it can offer the potential for quick recovery, it also comes with significant risks that traders should carefully consider before implementing it in their trading approach.
The MartinGale Scalping Strategy is a trading strategy designed to generate profits through frequent trades. It utilizes a combination of moving average crossovers and crossunders to generate entry and exit signals. The strategy is implemented in TradingView's Pine Script language.
The strategy begins by defining input variables such as take profit and stop loss levels, as well as the trading mode (long, short, or bidirectional). It then sets a rule to allow only long entries if the trading mode is set to "Long".
The strategy logic is defined using SMA (Simple Moving Average) crossover and crossunder signals. It calculates a short-term SMA (SMA3) and a longer-term SMA (SMA8), and plots them on the chart. The crossoverSignal and crossunderSignal variables are used to track the occurrence of the crossover and crossunder events, while the crossoverState and crossunderState variables determine the state of the crossover and crossunder conditions.
The strategy execution is based on the current position size. If the position size is zero (no open positions), the strategy checks for crossover and crossunder events. If a crossover event occurs and the trading mode allows long entries, a long position is entered. The entry price, stop price, take profit price, and stop loss price are calculated based on the current close price and the SMA8 value. Similarly, if a crossunder event occurs and the trading mode allows short entries, a short position is entered with the corresponding price calculations.
If there is an existing long position and the current close price reaches either the take profit price or the stop loss price, and a crossunder event occurs, the long position is closed. The entry price, stop price, take profit price, and stop loss price are reset to zero.
Likewise, if there is an existing short position and the current close price reaches either the take profit price or the stop loss price, and a crossover event occurs, the short position is closed and the price variables are reset.
The strategy also plots entry and exit points on the chart using plotshape function. It displays a triangle pointing up for a buy entry, a triangle pointing down for a buy exit, a triangle pointing down for a sell entry, and a triangle pointing up for a sell exit.
Overall, the MartinGale Scalping Strategy aims to capture small profits by taking advantage of short-term moving average crossovers and crossunders. It incorporates risk management through take profit and stop loss levels, and allows for different trading modes to accommodate different market conditions.
Interactive MA Stop Loss [TANHEF]This indicator is "Interactive." Once added to the chart, you need to click the start point for the moving average stoploss. Dragging it afterward will modify its position.
Why choose this indicator over a traditional Moving Average?
To accurately determine that a wick has crossed a moving average, you must examine the moving average's range on that bar (blue area on this indicator) and ensure the wick fully traverses this area.
When the price moves away from a moving average, the average also shifts towards the price. This can make it look like the wick crossed the average, even if it didn't.
How is the moving average area calculated?
For each bar, the moving average calculation is standard, but when the current bar is involved, its high or low is used instead of the close. For precise results, simply setting the source in a typical moving average calculation to 'Low' or 'High' is not sufficient in calculating the moving average area on a current bar.
Moving Average Options:
Simple Moving Average
Exponential Moving Average
Relative Moving Average
Weighted Moving Average
Indicator Explanation
After adding indicator to chart, you must click on a location to begin an entry.
The moving average type can be set and length modified to adjust the stoploss. An optional profit target may be added.
A symbol is display when the stoploss and profit target are hit. If a position is create that is not valid, "Overlapping MA and Bar" is displayed.

BTC hash rate oscillatorOVERVIEW:
This script looks to identify entry point opportunities when moving averages over Bitcoin's hash rate are indicative of Miner capitulation. The script implements an oscillator based on Charles Capriole's "Hash Ribbons & Bitcoin Bottoms" concept. It analyses the short-term and long-term moving averages of Bitcoin's hash rate and then identifies potential entry opportunities from this.
KEY FEATURES:
Signal Generation: The script identifies entry points when the short-term moving average crosses under the long-term moving average and the rate of change falls below a specified threshold. These conditions suggest potential trading opportunities.
Historical Signals: Optionally the script displays historical signals, indicating past instances where hash rate conditions suggested favourable entry points. Users can also assess the script's historical performance.
USAGE:
The generated opportunities can be used as potential entry points for BTC. The script provides visual cues on the chart (blue labels above the miner capitulation zones) for identification of signals. Customisable moving average lengths and threshold values are supported, which allow adaptation to various strategies.
CONSIDERATIONS:
Validation: It's recommended that careful backtesting over historical data be done before acting on any identified opportunities.
User Discretion: Trading decisions should not rely solely on this script. Users should exercise their judgment and consider market conditions.
Note: This script identifies opportunities based on historical data and should be used with caution, as past performance is not indicative of future results.
50 Point Stop & Take Profit**50 Point Stop & Take Profit**
This custom TradingView indicator is designed for instruments like US30 or any asset following a point system. It assists traders in setting precise stop-loss and take-profit levels based on different risk-reward ratios. It calculates and plots horizontal lines at various price levels above and below your specified entry price, with a 50-point difference between each ratio.
**How It Benefits Your Strategy:**
- Each risk-reward ratio, whether it's 1:1, 2:1, 3:1, and so on, is separated by precisely 50 points. This deliberate spacing is tailored to provide you with clear and consistent reference points for managing trades in instruments using a point-based system.
- The 50-point increments make it easy to adjust your positions, ensuring that your risk and reward levels align with your trading strategy and objectives.
**Usage:**
1. Set your desired entry price using the "Entry Price" input.
2. The indicator is ideally suited for instruments like US30, where each point represents a distinct price movement. It will automatically calculate and plot multiple lines at the following levels, both for Long (L) and Short (S) positions:
- 1:1 Risk-Reward Ratio (±50 points)
- 2:1 Risk-Reward Ratio (±100 points)
- 3:1 Risk-Reward Ratio (±150 points)
- 4:1 Risk-Reward Ratio (±200 points)
- 5:1 Risk-Reward Ratio (±250 points)
- 6:1 Risk-Reward Ratio (±300 points)
- 7:1 Risk-Reward Ratio (±350 points)
- 8:1 Risk-Reward Ratio (±400 points)
- 9:1 Risk-Reward Ratio (±450 points)
- 10:1 Risk-Reward Ratio (±500 points)
**Customization Options:**
- **Alerts:** You can set alerts for each level to receive notifications when the price reaches a specific risk-reward ratio.
- **Color Customization:** Customize the colors of the plotted lines to suit your chart preferences.
- **Toggle Ratios:** Easily toggle on/off different risk-reward ratios to focus on specific levels that align with your trading strategy.
**How to Use:**
- Use the plotted lines as reference points for setting stop-loss and take-profit orders at your preferred risk-reward ratios.
- The blue horizontal line represents your specified entry price.
This indicator simplifies your trading strategy by providing clear visual cues for managing risk and reward levels, with each level thoughtfully spaced 50 points apart to cater to your strategy's precision.
*Note: Always use risk management and proper trade sizing in your trading strategy.*

Triple Moving Averages + RSI Divergence + Trade Creator [CSJ7]This indicator uses triple moving averages to identify the prevailing trend, and calculates the linear regression of the closing price, and of the RSI, to either confirm the current trend direction, or to identify a potential trade reversal. Additionally, it includes a trade management tool that allows you to rate your trade setup according to your selected entry minimums and preferences, plus you obtain an estimated P&L with profitability metrics of your trade.
The key features are:
Dashboard : Includes entry/exit amounts, prices, quantities, estimated Profit & Loss, ROI, ROE, RRR, insights into market trends, entry conditions, and operational logs.
Trade Setup : Allows you to design your trade in detail. Select entry/exit levels, and let the tool suggest optimal target levels based on your ROI and RRR preferences. Specify your desired stop-loss type, and the tool will present the corresponding price.
Entry Conditions Management : Customize your trade entry prerequisites within the settings. The system evaluates these, offering a Trade Rating and displaying current values and entry statuses in the Entry Conditions table.
Trade Box : Visualize your trade strategy with a trade box that shows in alongside your chart, highlighting potential profit/loss zones and entry price points.
RSI & Close Price Linear Regressions : Calculates the linear regression of RSI and the close prices, since the beginning of the current trend, and presents them directly in the chart and alongside the active trend, to allow you to spot a potential trend continuation or reversal.
Adaptive price levels : The tool calculates the viability, trade rating and P&L based on contextual levels, like moving averages and highest or lowest prices, instead of using fixed prices; this allows for the results to adapt dynamically to market fluctuations, eliminating the need for manual recalibrations and adjustments.
Automatic Trade Side Detection : While manual input is available, the tool can intuitively determine the optimal trade side based on current data.
Market Outlook Events : By using the crossings of the three averages, the tool keeps track of the evolution of the current trend, providing points of interest like when the initial momentum is observed, when the trend initiates, when a potential entry zone starts, when a buy or sell opportunity arises and when the trend ends.
Alerts : You can set up two distinct alerts – one notifies on trend milestones and another for trade initiation conditions. Note: Manual activation is required in the Tradingview dashboard.
Logs : The tool provides a log section where you can find relevant information regarding the operation and any encountered errors via the dashboard's log section.
Usage
Choose your desired ticker and timeframe. If a tradable trend is detected and levels are set correctly, the trade box appears. Incorrect levels will trigger a warning in the error logs.
The tool will suggest the logical trade side, but manual adjustments are possible.
Customize ROI, maximum loss, and RRR in the settings. When in 'Auto', the tool will calculate the target price accordingly.
Adjust leverage to align with your risk and reward parameters.
View linear regressions for trend analysis and spotting RSI divergences.
Manage position sizing and risk in the settings, accounting for broker/exchange fees.
Activate alerts for trade notifications.
Enable 'Show Trade Levels' in settings to get the details of the necessary limit orders for the trade.
In the image below, you can view the expanded Trade Creator Dashboard, the Trade Box, and the Linear Regression Lines:
The linear regression lines are colored red when trending downward and green when trending upward.
The labels displaying information related to the entry and exit prices can be hidden, as demonstrated in the image above.

How it does it
==================
To explain how this indictor generate signal or does what it does, its best to put in points.
I have coded the strategy for each of the indicator, for some of the indicator you will see the option to choose strategy variation, these variants are either famous among the traders or its the ones I found more accurate based on my usage. By coding the strategy I will have the BUY and SELL signal generated by each indicator in the backend.
Next, the indicator will identify your selected LEADING INDICATOR and the CONFIRMATION INDICATOR(s).
On each candle close, the indicator will check if the selected LEADING INDICATOR generates signal (long or short).
Once the leading indicator generates the signal, then the indicator will scan each of the selected CONFIRMATION INDICATORS on candle close to check if any of the CONFIRMATION INDICATOR generated signal (long or short).
Until this point, all the process is happening in the backend, the indicator will print LONG or SHORT signal on the chart ONLY if LEADING INDICATOR and all the selected CONFIRMATION INDICATORS generates signal on candle close. example for long signal, the LEADING INDICATOR and all selected CONFIRMATION INDICATORS must print long signal.
The dashboard table will show your selected LEADING and CONFIRMATION INDICATORS and if LEADING or the CONFIRMATION INDICATORS have generated signal. Signal generated by LEADING and CONFIRMATION indicator whether long or short, is indicated by tick icon ✔. and if any of the selected CONFIRMATION or LEADING indicator does not generate signal on candle close, it will be indicated with cross symbol ✖.
how to use this indicator
==============================
Using the indicator is pretty simple, but it depends on your goal, whether you want to use it for overlaying the available indicators or using it to build your strategy or for both.
To use for Building your strategy: Select your LEADING INDICATOR, and then select your CONFIRMATION INDICATOR(s). if on candle close all the indicators generate signal, then this indicator will print SHORT or LONG signal on the chart for your entry. There are plenty of indicators you can use to build your strategy, some indicators are best for longer time frame setups while others are responsive indicators that are best for short time frame.
To use for overlaying the indicators: Open the setting of this indicator and scroll to the SWITCHBOARD section, from there you can select which indicator you want to plot on the chart.
For each of the listed indicators, you have the flexibility to customize the settings and configurations to suit your preferences. simply open indicator setting and scroll down, you will find configuration for each of the indicators used.
I will also release the Strategy Backtester for this indicator soon.
Tribute to David PaulI made this indicator as a tribute to the late David Paul .
He mentioned quite a lot about 89 periods moving average (especially on 4h), also the 21 and 55.
I put up some entries when three ma are crossed by price in the same direction, bull/bear backgrounds and a color code for candles because who doesn't love the feeling of a lasting trend.
To be more specific :
The indicator plots sma21, sma55, sma89 and AMA = (sma21+sma55+sma89)/3
When the closing price crosses the highest of the 3 sma, it is considered a bullish confirmation.
At this moment two lines appear, one on the bottom of the candle that crossed, one on the crossing point.
The lowest line can be used as the stop loss value of a long.
The highest line can be used as an entry point for a long.
When the closing price crosses the lowest of the 3 sma, it is considered a bearish confirmation.
At this moment two lines appear, one on the top of the candle that crossed, one on the crossing point.
The highest line can be used as the stop loss value of a short.
The lowest line can be used as an entry point for shorts.
When the closing price is above AMA, it is considered a bullish confirmation.
At this time a blue background appears at the crossing point.
The highest line can be used as the stop loss value for a long.
The starting point of the background can be used as the entry point for a long.
When the closing price is below AMA, it is considered a bearish confirmation.
At this time a red background appears at the crossing point.
The highest line can be used as the stop loss value for a short.
The starting point of the background can be used as the entry point for a short.
When the price is above 3 sma the candles turn blue. Signifying an upward trend.
When the price is below 3 sma the candles turn red. Signifying a bearish trend.
When the price is neither simultaneously above nor below the 3 sma, the candles are gray and the background linked to AMA becomes less vivid. Meaning a loss of vitality of the current trend or an absence of a clear trend.
Ideally, you should take a position towards "Real Long/Short Entry", set your stop loss towards "Ideal Long/Short Entry", and close the trade either when the background ends (riskier but more potential), or when the candles become gray (more conservative but noisier).
In the inputs, you can modify the display rules (explained in the tooltips), by default everything is displayed.
RSI Trend Detector PSAR BasedRSI Trend Detector is based on the Direction of PSAR. This indicator helps the easy detection of Trend Direction and Sideways Movement of Price. It was difficult to determine the RSI Trend Direction in a basic RSI indicator. one cannot decide the exact entry point where to enter.
RSI Trend Detector helps with the direction of trend using PSAR direction which is almost instant direction changing indicator with Zero Lag. The color of the RSI changes immediately based on PSAR direction. One can determine the trend whether its in UP / Down or Sideways.
One can easily detect Pullback and entry points using this indicator.
The basic working can be interpreted with a normal default RSI, The only additional feature is the direction of trend using a SAR signal.
Oversold Zone is below 30
Overbought Zone is above 70
how ever RSI above 50 is treated a UP trend and Below 50 as Down Trend.
when RSI is between 40 and 60 price must be considered as Sideways. One can easily interpret the TREND.
Yellow Line = RSI Moving Average
RED and Green Line= RSI
Grey Zone = Sideways
Horizontal line = RSI level 50
Settings can be changed as required.
RSI Line:
RSI Above 50 up trend and Entry when color is green
RSI Below 50 down trend and Entry when color is Red
RSI in Grey Zone is sideways, wait for a breakout
RSI above 50 and color is red then its a pullback in uptrend
RSI below 50 and color is green then its a pullback in downtrend
ALERTS:
Up signal and Down Signal are provided when ever RSI crosses RSIMA
Up Signal: RSI crosses RSI Moving Average upwards
Down Signal: RSI crosses RSI Moving Average Downwards

Buy/Sell BoxThis indicator tries to identify the points where the price exceeds or falls below a rectangle based on the opening and closing prices of the previous period, the creation of the boxes occurs when a doji is detected therefore it will calculate the coordinates of the rectangle that will be drawn around it, therefore the indicator offers buy or sell signals based on this logic. Specifically, the buy signal is generated if the closing price is above the top of the rectangle and satisfies some previous price conditions while the sell signal is generated if the closing price is below the bottom of the rectangle and satisfies some conditions of previous prices within a further threshold based on the Ema 150.
Lines are then drawn on the graph to visually display the extreme price levels, which can be useful for any confirmation of buy and sell signals, Stop Loss and Take Profit, Trend Filter (to visually understand if the trend is bullish or bearish)
A potentially effective trading strategy could involve identifying buy and sell signals near the extreme price level lines drawn by the indicator. This approach can be used to try to improve the accuracy of your trading signals and make more informed decisions. For example:
When you receive a buy or sell signal based on the dojis and rectangles generated by the indicator, check whether the price is also near one of the extreme price level lines. If you are receiving a buy signal and notice that the current price is near a low of the lower level line, this may further confirm the buying opportunity, as the price is near a significant resistance level. On the contrary, if the sell signal was close to a maximum price level it could confirm an excellent short entry.
It is also possible to use the boxes as reference points to set the stop loss and take profit levels. If you are entering a buy position, you might consider setting your stop loss just below an upper line of the last box. Additionally, you may want to set your take profit near a higher price level if you are looking to maximize profits. This will help manage risks and protect your capital.
Ruth Buy/Sell Signal for Day Trade and Swing TradeRuth is based on the most known technical indicators and designed for intraday traders. Ruth's aim is to find the best Buy/Sell points and decide to stop loss point with minimum Loss also Ruth tries to find multiple Profit points as TP1/TP2/TP3/TP4/TP5. Ruth was designed based on the heat map colors to be user-friendly and easy to read. While cold color preferred for Short positions, warm colors preferred for Long positions. The most important feature of Ruth is that after the signal is generated, the candles in which the profitable levels are painted one by one with their own special color codes, so that even the most inexperienced users can understand where they should close their positions.
There are two types of signal Ruth can produce for fast trade.
Short Signal: These signals means market tends to be move to down.
Short Stop Loss Point: This is the maximum risk for the position. Shown with single red line inside of the signal.
Short Entry Point: This is the best entry price for short side position. Shown with single baby blue line inside of the signal.
Short Take Profit (TP1): This level represents the profit level the signal is most likely to reach. Shown with single blue line inside of the signal.
Short Take Profit (TP2): This level represents the profit level with a high probability of the signal occurring. Shown with single light purple line inside of the signal.
Short Take Profit (TP3): This level represents the profit level with an intermediate probability of the signal occurring. Shown with single dark purple line inside of the signal.
Short Take Profit (TP4): This level represents the profit level with a low probability of the signal occurring. Shown with single light lilac line inside of the signal.
Short Take Profit (TP5): This level represents the profit level with a tight probability of the signal occurring. Shown with single dark lilac line inside of the signal.
Long Signal: These signals means market tends to be move to up.
Long Stop Loss Point: This is the maximum risk for the position. Shown with single red line inside of the signal.
Long Entry Point: This is the best entry price for short side position. Shown with single baby blue line inside of the signal.
Long Take Profit (TP1): This level represents the profit level the signal is most likely to reach. Shown with single greenish yellow line inside of the signal.
Long Take Profit (TP2): This level represents the profit level with a high probability of the signal occurring. Shown with yellow purple line inside of the signal.
Long Take Profit (TP3): This level represents the profit level with an intermediate probability of the signal occurring. Shown with single dark yellow line inside of the signal.
Long Take Profit (TP4): This level represents the profit level with a low probability of the signal occurring. Shown with single orange line inside of the signal.
Long Take Profit (TP5): This level represents the profit level with a tight probability of the signal occurring. Shown with single dark orange line inside of the signal.
Timeframe: In general best and fastest results occurred in shorter timeframes like 1 min / 5 mins / 15 mins but feel free to try higher timeframes.
Tips & Tricks:
1) Gray line drawn ot the graph represents Dema, we suggests you to go on Short Singals under gray line and go on Long Signals upper gray line.
2) Mostly, Signals easily reach their TP2 / TP3 levels and then generally there is reaction or take profit desire so commodity price turns the opposite direction. If in short time price won't turn to Signal direction close position.
3) Don't forget, every positions has own risks and profits but trade in main trend is crucial.
TraderJoe TickMarket sentiment and market breadth are important factors for traders to consider when making trading decisions.
The TICK index , which reflects the buying and selling activity of an entire index, can provide valuable insights into market sentiment and breadth.
1. Assessing Market Sentiment:
- Positive TICK: When the TICK index is consistently positive (indicating more stocks are being bought at or above the asking price), it suggests overall bullish sentiment in the market.
- Negative TICK: Conversely, a consistently negative TICK indicates bearish sentiment, where more stocks are being sold at or below the asking price.
2. Market Breadth:
- Look at the TICK readings for various market indexes, not just one. If all major market indexes are experiencing the same sentiment (e.g., all have aggressive buyers), it's a stronger signal of a broader market trend.
3. Using the TICK for Entry and Exit:
- Positive TICK can be an entry signal for long positions. Traders might consider going long when the TICK index is consistently positive, indicating strong buying pressure in the market.
- Negative TICK can be an entry signal for short positions. When the TICK is consistently negative, it suggests selling pressure, making shorting more attractive.
- Exit positions or take profits when the TICK starts to show signs of reversing from its extreme levels. An excessively positive TICK might indicate overbought conditions, while an overly negative TICK may signal oversold conditions.
4. Combining TICK with Other Indicators:
- It's often beneficial to combine TICK analysis with other technical and fundamental indicators to increase the accuracy of your trading decisions. For example, you could use moving averages, RSI, or support and resistance levels to confirm your entry and exit points.
5. Low Float Stocks and TICK:
- Low float stocks can be more volatile, making TICK analysis even more crucial. In these cases, watch for extreme TICK readings, as they can trigger rapid price movements.
- Be cautious when trading low float stocks, as they can be susceptible to price manipulation due to limited liquidity. Use proper risk management techniques, like setting stop-loss orders.
6. Stay Informed:
- Keep an eye on news and events that might explain sudden shifts in market sentiment. Unexpected news, economic releases, or geopolitical events can quickly change market dynamics.

Are stop orders making money? [yohtza]Who is this indicator for and what does it do?
This is an indicator that helps price action traders in determining the strength of the trend and potential counter trend traps that present themselves during the move. It highlights the background of the bar at which counter trend traders that trade with stop orders (breakout entries) were able to achieve the same amount of reward as was their risk for that trade.
What is it based on?
When there is a strong trend in effect, the counter trend traders are unable to buy above(in bear trend) or sell below (in bull trend) a bar with a stop order and get an equal reward for the risk they are taking.
The first time counter trend traders are able to buy and make money in bear or sell and make money in bull it is a warning sign that market is likely transitioning into trading range phase of the market cycle.
Another application of the indicator is for discovering potential traps. If market comes very close to the take profit level of counter trend traders and reverses, they will usually try to get out with as much profit or as small of a loss as possible and that will often create a fast move (also called giving up) and a good with trend entry.
How does it work?
The indicator is using exponential moving average as a filter for when the market is trending and then scans for signals where counter trend traders enter. Next it looks if the stoploss or profit target was hit for that trade. If the profit target was hit it draws a box around the bar on which the traders entered, the box height is based on stoploss and profit target price levels.
Indicator inputs
- Scan for doji signal bars
When this option is selected, bars that have small bodies (less than 50% of their height) are also included as bars on which counter traders enter. If the option is not selected it only looks for bull trend bars (bodies are greater than 50% of their height) below the moving average and bear trend bars above the moving average.
- Border and background colors and border style
It is possible to select different colors and chose between solid, dashed and dotted borders
- Ema period
Default setting is 20 bar exponential moving average but feel free to use which you prefer
- Tick value
This is the value of the minimal movement of the chart you are trading on. For example for S&P 500 E-mini futures the value is 0.25 and that is the default setting.
