Double CCI Confirmed Hull Moving Average Reversal StrategyOverview
The Double CCI Confirmed Hull Moving Average Strategy utilizes hull moving average (HMA) in conjunction with two commodity channel index (CCI) indicators: the slow and fast to increase the probability of entering when the short and mid-term uptrend confirmed. The main idea is to wait until the price breaks the HMA while both CCI are showing that the uptrend has likely been already started. Moreover, strategy uses exponential moving average (EMA) to trail the price when it reaches the specific level. The strategy opens only long trades.
Unique Features
Dynamic stop-loss system: Instead of fixed stop-loss level strategy utilizes average true range (ATR) multiplied by user given number subtracted from the position entry price as a dynamic stop loss level.
Configurable Trading Periods: Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Double trade setup confirmation: Strategy utilizes two different period CCI indicators to confirm the breakouts of HMA.
Trailing take profit level: After reaching the trailing profit activation level scrip activate the trailing of long trade using EMA. More information in methodology.
Methodology
The strategy opens long trade when the following price met the conditions:
Short-term period CCI indicator shall be above 0.
Long-term period CCI indicator shall be above 0.
Price shall cross the HMA and candle close above it with the same candle
When long trade is executed, strategy set the stop-loss level at the price ATR multiplied by user-given value below the entry price. This level is recalculated on every next candle close, adjusting to the current market volatility.
At the same time strategy set up the trailing stop validation level. When the price crosses the level equals entry price plus ATR multiplied by user-given value script starts to trail the price with EMA. If price closes below EMA long trade is closed. When the trailing starts, script prints the label “Trailing Activated”.
Strategy settings
In the inputs window user can setup the following strategy settings:
ATR Stop Loss (by default = 1.75)
ATR Trailing Profit Activation Level (by default = 2.25)
CCI Fast Length (by default = 25, used for calculation short term period CCI
CCI Slow Length (by default = 50, used for calculation long term period CCI)
Hull MA Length (by default = 34, period of HMA, which shall be broken to open trade)
Trailing EMA Length (by default = 20)
User can choose the optimal parameters during backtesting on certain price chart.
Justification of Methodology
Before understanding why this particular combination of indicator has been chosen let's briefly explain what is CCI and HMA.
The Commodity Channel Index (CCI) is a momentum-based technical indicator used in trading to measure a security's price relative to its average price over a given period. Developed by Donald Lambert in 1980, the CCI is primarily used to identify cyclical trends in a security, helping traders to spot potential buying or selling opportunities.
The CCI formula is:
CCI = (Typical Price − SMA) / (0.015 × Mean Deviation)
Typical Price (TP): This is calculated as the average of the high, low, and closing prices for the period.
Simple Moving Average (SMA): This is the average of the Typical Prices over a specific number of periods.
Mean Deviation: This is the average of the absolute differences between the Typical Price and the SMA.
The result is a value that typically fluctuates between +100 and -100, though it is not bounded and can go higher or lower depending on the price movement.
The Hull Moving Average (HMA) is a type of moving average that was developed by Alan Hull to improve upon the traditional moving averages by reducing lag while maintaining smoothness. The goal of the HMA is to create an indicator that is both quick to respond to price changes and less prone to whipsaws (false signals).
How the Hull Moving Average is Calculated?
The Hull Moving Average is calculated using the following steps:
Weighted Moving Average (WMA): The HMA starts by calculating the Weighted Moving Average (WMA) of the price data over a period square root of n (sqrt(n))
Speed Adjustment: A WMA is then calculated for half of the period n/2, and this is multiplied by 2 to give more weight to recent prices.
Lag Reduction: The WMA of the full period n is subtracted from the doubled n/2 WMA.
Final Smoothing: To smooth the result and reduce noise, a WMA is calculated for the square root of the period n.
The formula can be represented as:
HMA(n) = WMA(WMA(n/2) × 2 − WMA(n), sqrt(n))
The Weighted Moving Average (WMA) is a type of moving average that gives more weight to recent data points, making it more responsive to recent price changes than a Simple Moving Average (SMA). In a WMA, each data point within the selected period is multiplied by a weight, with the most recent data receiving the highest weight. The sum of these weighted values is then divided by the sum of the weights to produce the WMA.
This strategy leverages HMA of user given period as a critical level which shall be broken to say that probability of trend change to the upside increased. HMA reacts faster than EMA or SMA to the price change, that’s why it increases chances to enter new trade earlier. Long-term period CCI helps to have an approximation of mid-term trend. If it’s above 0 the probability of uptrend increases. Short-period CCI allows to have an approximation of short-term trend reversal from down to uptrend. This approach increases chances to have a long trade setup in the direction of mid-term trend when the short-term trend starts to reverse.
ATR is used to adjust the strategy risk management to the current market volatility. If volatility is low, we don’t need the large stop loss to understand the there is a high probability that we made a mistake opening the trade. User can setup the settings ATR Stop Loss and ATR Trailing Profit Activation Level to realize his own risk to reward preferences, but the unique feature of a strategy is that after reaching trailing profit activation level strategy is trying to follow the trend until it is likely to be finished instead of using fixed risk management settings. It allows sometimes to be involved in the large movements. It’s also important to make a note, that script uses HMA to enter the trade, but for trailing it leverages EMA. It’s used because EMA has no such fast reaction to price move which increases probability not to be stopped out from any significant uptrend move.

Self Optimizing RSI and Self Adaptive TP/SL [Starbots]Self Optimizing RSI and Self Adaptive TP/SL Strategy. (non-repainting)
This script continuously backtests 20 different combinations of RSI Buy conditions across 5 different Take Profit/Stop Loss combinations. In total, it tests 100 variants on every bar close and records the Net Profit gained for each combination. The strategy then selects and uses the best-performing combination of settings currently available for you to trade.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI), developed by J. Welles Wilder, is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. The RSI oscillates between zero and 100. Traditionally the RSI is considered overbought when above 70 and oversold when below 30. Signals can be generated by looking for divergences and failure swings. RSI can also be used to identify the general trend.
To improve our results we are calculating Multiple Length RSI - Average RSI based on the multiple periods. You can use just 1 Length or Multiple.
Set Inputs to Min=14, Max=14 if you want to use just 1 period.
= RSI(14)
3 RSI Lengths example (12,13 and 14):
Min=12, Max=14
(12+13+14) / 3 = avg. RSI

Backtester - Optimizer Explained:
The backtester runs numerous backtests in the background to optimize trading strategies. Here’s how it works:
Default Inputs (Combinations of TP/SL)
TP 1%, SL4%
TP 2%, SL4%
TP 3%, SL4%
TP 2%, SL5%
TP 4.5%, SL10%
Default Inputs (RSI Crossover Buys) :
18 ,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,45,55, 69
_______________________________________________________
Backtest RSI Crossover 18:
TP1%, SL4% => Save net profit
TP2%, SL4% => Save net profit
TP3%, SL4% => Save net profit
TP2%, SL5% => Save net profit
TP4.5%, SL10% => Save net profit
,...

Backtest RSI Crossover 69:
TP1%, SL4% => Save net profit
TP2%, SL4% => Save net profit
TP3%, SL4% => Save net profit
TP2%, SL5% => Save net profit
TP4.5%, SL10% => Save net profit
Self Optimizing Buy Condition and Self Optimizing Take Profit - Stop Los
This process involves testing various combinations of RSI crossover values with different Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) percentages. The net profit for each combination is saved, allowing the optimizer to select the best-performing settings for trading.
It recalculates on every bar close. If one combination starts performing better than others—achieving a higher net profit gain (essentially like running 100 backtests with different settings in the background)—the strategy switches to that combination of TP/SL and Buy condition. It continues trading with the new settings until another parameter starts performing better and the strategy switches to that setting.

IsAlgo - Manual Channel► Overview:
Manual Channel is a strategy that allows traders to manually insert channel lines and set the lines’ width. Trades are opened when the price hits one of the lines and bounces back, with the expectation that it will move towards the opposite line. This strategy offers flexibility in configuring channel lines and trading behavior.
► Description:
The Manual Channel strategy is based on the use of manually defined channel lines to guide trading decisions. Traders start by marking four key points on the chart to create the channel. The first two points share the same time but different prices, and the last two points also share the same time but different prices. This method allows traders to place the channel lines precisely based on their analysis and insights. Additionally, the strategy allows for adjusting the width of the channel lines, which acts as a buffer zone around the main lines.
Once the channel is established, the strategy continuously monitors the price movements in relation to these lines. When the price touches one of the channel lines, the strategy opens a trade with the expectation that the price will bounce back and move towards the opposite line. For example, if the price hits the lower channel line, a long trade (buy) might be opened with the anticipation that the price will rise to the upper channel line. Conversely, if the price hits the upper channel line, a short trade (sell) might be opened expecting the price to fall to the lower channel line.
The strategy offers several options for managing trades. Traders can choose to close a trade when the price reaches the opposite channel line, capturing the expected movement within the channel. Additionally, if the price breaks outside the channel, traders have the option to close trades immediately or stop further trade executions to avoid potential losses.

IsAlgo - Manual TrendLine► Overview:
Manual TrendLine is a strategy that allows traders to manually insert a trendline and opens trades when the trendline is retested or when the price hits a new highest high or lowest low. It provides flexibility in trendline configuration and trading behavior, enabling responsive and adaptable trading strategies.
► Description:
The Manual TrendLine strategy revolves around using manually defined trendlines as the primary tool for making trading decisions. Traders start by specifying two key points on the chart to establish the trendline. Each point is defined by a specific time and price, enabling precise placement according to the trader’s analysis and insights. Additionally, the strategy allows for the adjustment of the trendline’s width, which acts as a buffer zone around the trendline, providing flexibility in how closely price movements must align with the trendline to trigger trades.
Once the trendline is established, the strategy continuously monitors price movements relative to this line. One of its core functions is to execute trades when the price retests the trendline. A retest occurs when the price approaches the trendline after initially diverging from it, indicating potential continuation of the prevailing trend. This behavior is often seen as a confirmation of the trend’s strength, and the strategy takes advantage of these moments to enter trades in the direction of the trend.
Beyond retests, the strategy also tracks the formation of new highest highs and lowest lows in relation to the trendline. When the price reaches a new highest high or lowest low, it signifies strong momentum in the trend’s direction. The strategy can be configured to open trades at these critical points.
Another key feature of the strategy is its response to trendline breaks. A break occurs when the price moves through the trendline, potentially signaling a reversal or a significant shift in market sentiment. The strategy can be set to open reverse trades upon such breaks, enabling traders to quickly adapt to changing market conditions. Additionally, traders have the option to stop opening new trades after a trendline break, helping to avoid trades during periods of uncertainty or increased volatility.

Smart Money Concept Strategy - Uncle SamThis strategy combines concepts from two popular TradingView scripts:
Smart Money Concepts (SMC) : The strategy identifies key levels in the market (swing highs and lows) and draws trend lines to visualize potential breakouts. It uses volume analysis to gauge the strength of these breakouts.
Smart Money Breakouts : This part of the strategy incorporates the idea of "Smart Money" – institutional traders who often lead market movements. It looks for breakouts of established levels with significant volume, aiming to catch the beginning of new trends.
How the Strategy Works:
Identification of Key Levels: The script identifies swing highs and swing lows based on a user-defined lookback period. These levels are considered significant points where price has reversed in the past.
Drawing Trend Lines: Trend lines are drawn connecting these key levels, creating a visual representation of potential support and resistance zones.
Volume Analysis: The script analyzes the volume during the formation of these levels and during breakouts. Higher volume suggests stronger moves and increases the probability of a successful breakout.
Entry Conditions:
Long Entry: A long entry is triggered when the price breaks above a resistance line with significant volume, and the moving average trend filter (optional) is bullish.
Short Entry: A short entry is triggered when the price breaks below a support line with significant volume, and the moving average trend filter (optional) is bearish.
Exit Conditions:
Stop Loss: Customizable stop loss percentages are implemented to protect against adverse price movements.
Take Profit: Customizable take profit percentages are used to lock in profits.

IsAlgo - Reverse Candle Strategy► Overview:
The Reverse Candle Strategy leverages a customizable moving average to identify the start of a trend. It utilizes the highest and lowest prices to define the trend and its corrections, executing trades based on custom candlestick patterns to capitalize on the main trend's continuation.
► Description:
The Reverse Candle Strategy is designed to effectively identify and trade market trends by combining moving averages and custom candlestick patterns. The core of the strategy is a single, customizable moving average, which helps determine the trend direction. When the market price crosses above the moving average, this signifies the beginning of an uptrend. The strategy then tracks the highest price reached during the uptrend and waits for a correction. A specific custom candlestick pattern signals the end of the correction, at which point the strategy executes a long trade.
In the case of a downtrend, the market price crossing below the moving average marks the trend’s start. The strategy monitors the lowest price during the downtrend and awaits a correction. The end of this correction is identified by another custom candlestick pattern, prompting the strategy to execute a short trade. This combination of a moving average with precise candlestick patterns ensures that trades are made at optimal moments, improving the likelihood of successful trades.
The integration of the moving average and candlestick patterns is critical. The moving average smooths out price data to highlight the trend direction, while the custom candlestick patterns provide specific entry signals after a correction, ensuring the trend’s resumption is genuine. This synergy enhances the strategy’s ability to filter out false signals and improve trade accuracy.
↑ Long Entry Example:
When the price is moving above the moving average and the highest price has been detected, the strategy will wait for the entry candle to execute the long trade.
↓ Short Entry Example:
When the price is moving below the moving average and the lowest price has been detected, the strategy will wait for the entry candle to execute the short trade.
✕ Exit Conditions:
To manage risk effectively, the strategy provides multiple stop-loss options. Traders can set stop-loss levels using fixed pips, ATR-based calculations, or the higher/lower price of past candles. Additionally, trades can be closed if a candle moves against the trade direction. Up to three take-profit levels can be set using fixed pips, ATR, or risk-to-reward ratios, allowing traders to secure profits at different stages. The trailing stop feature adjusts the stop loss as the trade moves into profit, locking in gains while allowing for continued potential upside. Furthermore, a break-even feature moves the stop loss to the entry price once a certain profit level is reached, protecting against losses. Trades can also be closed when the price crosses the moving average.

IsAlgo - Ultra Trend Strategy► Overview:
The Ultra Trend strategy is designed to identify trend lines based on average price movement and execute trades when the price crosses the middle line, confirmed by an entry candle. This strategy combines ATR, Moving Averages, and customizable candlestick patterns to provide a versatile and robust trading approach.
► Description:
The Ultra Trend strategy employs a multi-faceted approach to accurately gauge market trends and execute trades. It combines the Average True Range (ATR) with trendline analysis and Moving Averages, providing a comprehensive view of market conditions. The strategy uses ATR to measure market volatility and the average price movement, helping to set dynamic thresholds for trend detection and adapting to changing market conditions. The slope of the trend is calculated based on the angle of price movement, which aids in identifying the strength and direction of the trend.
Additionally, a Moving Average is used to filter trades, ensuring alignment with the broader market direction and reducing false signals, thereby enhancing trade accuracy.
Traders can configure the strategy to enter trades in the direction of the trend, against the trend, or both. This feature enhances the adaptability of the Ultra Trend strategy, making it suitable for various trading styles and market environments.
↑ Long Entry:
A long trade is executed when the entry candle crosses and closes above the trend line. This indicates a bullish market condition, signaling an opportunity to enter a buy position.
↓ Short Entry:
A short trade is executed when the entry candle crosses and closes below the trend line. This indicates a bearish market condition, signaling an opportunity to enter a sell position.
✕ Exit Conditions:
The strategy offers multiple stop-loss options to manage risk effectively. Traders can set stop-loss levels using fixed pips, ATR-based calculations, the higher/lower price of past candles, or close a trade if a candle moves against the trade direction.
Up to three take profit levels can be set using methods such as fixed pips, ATR, and risk-to-reward ratios. This allows traders to secure profits at various stages of the trade.
A trailing stop feature adjusts the stop loss as the trade moves into profit, locking in gains while allowing the trade to continue capturing potential upside. Additionally, a break-even feature moves the stop loss to the entry price once a certain profit level is reached, protecting against losses.
Trades can also be closed when a trend change is detected or when a candle closes outside a predefined channel, ensuring that positions are exited promptly in response to changing market conditions.
► Features and Settings:
⚙︎ Trend: Users can configure the trend direction, length, factor, and slope, allowing for precise control over how trends are identified and followed.
⚙︎ Moving Average: An Exponential Moving Average (EMA) can be employed to confirm the trend direction indicated by the trend lines. This provides further assurance that the trend line breakout is not a false signal. The EMA can be enabled or disabled based on user preference.
⚙︎ Entry Candle: The entry candle is the candle that breaks the trend line, signaling an entry opportunity. Users can specify the minimum and maximum size of the candle's body and the ratio of the body to the entire candle size. This ensures that only significant breakouts trigger trades.
⚙︎ Trading Session: This feature allows users to define specific trading hours during which the strategy should operate, ensuring trades are executed only during preferred market periods.
⚙︎ Trading Days: Users can specify which days the strategy should be active, offering the flexibility to avoid trading on specific days of the week.

IsAlgo - AI Trend Strategy► Overview:
The AI Trend Strategy employs a combination of technical indicators to guide trading decisions across various markets and timeframes. It uses a custom Super Trend indicator and an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to analyze market trends and executes trades based on specific candlestick patterns. This strategy includes options for setting stop losses, take profit levels, and features an alert system for trade notifications.
► Description:
This strategy focuses on identifying the optimal "entry candle," which signals either a potential correction within the ongoing trend or the emergence of a new trend. The entry criteria for this candle are highly customizable, allowing traders to specify dimensions such as the candle's minimum and maximum size and body ratio. Additional settings include whether this candle should be the highest or lowest compared to recent candles and if a confirmation candle is necessary to validate the entry.
The Super Trend indicator is central to the strategy’s operation, dictating the direction of trades by identifying bullish or bearish trends. Traders have the option to configure trades to align with the direction of the trend identified by this indicator, or alternatively, to take positions counter to the trend for potential reversal strategies. This flexibility can be crucial during varying market conditions.
Additionally, the strategy incorporates an EMA alongside the Super Trend indicator to further analyze trend directions. This combined approach aims to reduce the occurrence of false signals and improve the strategy's overall trend analysis.
The learning algorithm is a standout feature of the AI Trend Strategy. After accumulating data from a predefined number of trades (e.g., after the first 100 trades), the algorithm begins to analyze past performances to identify patterns in wins and losses. It considers variables such as the distance from the current price to the trend line, the range between the highest and lowest prices during the trend, and the duration of the trend. This data informs the algorithm's predictions for future trades, aiming to improve accuracy and reduce losses by adapting to the evolving market conditions.
► Examples of Trade Execution:
1. In an Uptrend: The strategy might detect a suitable entry candle during a correction phase, which aligns with the continuing uptrend for a potential long trade.
2. In a Downtrend: Alternatively, the strategy might identify an entry candle at the end of a downtrend, suggesting a potential reversal or correction where a long trade could be initiated.
3. In an Uptrend: The strategy may also spot an entry candle at the end of an uptrend and execute a short trade, anticipating a reversal or significant pullback.
4. In a Downtrend: The strategy might find a suitable entry candle during a correction phase, indicating a continuation of the downtrend for a potential short trade.
These examples illustrate how the strategy identifies potential trading opportunities based on trend behavior and candlestick patterns.
► Features and Settings:
⚙︎ Trend: Utilizes a custom Super Trend indicator to identify the direction of the market trend. Users can configure the strategy to execute trades in alignment with this trend, take positions contrary to the trend, or completely ignore the trend information for their trading decisions.
⚙︎ Moving average: Employs an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to further confirm the trend direction indicated by the Super Trend indicator. This setting can be used in conjunction with the Super Trend or disabled if preferred.
⚙︎ Entry candle: Defines the criteria for the candle that triggers a trade. Users can customize aspects such as the candle's size, body, and its relative position to previous candles to ensure it meets specific trading requirements before initiating a trade.
⚙︎ Learning algorithm: This component uses historical trade data to refine the strategy. It assesses various aspects of past trades, such as price trends and market conditions, to make more informed trading decisions in the future.
⚙︎ Trading session: Users can define specific trading hours during which the strategy should operate, allowing trades to be executed only during preferred market periods.
⚙︎ Trading days: This option enables users to specify which days the strategy should be active, providing the flexibility to avoid trading on certain days of the week if desired.
⚙︎ Backtesting: Enables a period during which the strategy can be tested over a selected start and end date, with an option to deactivate this feature if not needed.
⚙︎ Trades: Detailed configuration options include the direction of trades (long, short, or both), position sizing (fixed or percentage-based), the maximum number of open trades, and limitations on the number of trades per day or based on trend changes.
⚙︎ Trades Exit: Offers various strategies for exiting trades, such as setting limits on profits or losses, specifying the duration a trade should remain open, or closing trades based on trend reversal signals.
⚙︎ Stop loss: Various methods for setting stop losses are available, including fixed pips, based on Average True Range (ATR), or utilizing the highest or lowest price points within a designated number of previous candles. Another option allows for closing the trade after a specific number of candles moving in the opposite direction.
⚙︎ Break even: This feature adjusts the stop loss to a break-even point under certain conditions, such as reaching predefined profit levels, to protect gains.
⚙︎ Trailing stop: The trailing stop feature adjusts the stop loss as the trade moves into profit, aiming to secure gains while potentially capturing further upside.
⚙︎ Take profit: Up to three take profit levels can be established using various methods, such as a fixed amount of pips, risk-to-reward ratios based on the stop loss, ATR, or after a set number of candles that move in the direction of the trade.
⚙︎ Alerts: Includes a comprehensive alert system that informs the user of all significant actions taken by the strategy, such as trade openings and closings. It supports placeholders for dynamic values like take profit levels, stop loss prices, and more.
⚙︎ Dashboard: Provides a visual display of detailed information about ongoing and past trades on the chart, helping users monitor the strategy’s performance and make informed decisions.

===========================================================================
===========================================================================
This indicator serves as a comprehensive full-cycle trading system, providing alerts at each stage of the trade, from opening to closure. The algorithm uses most recent and historical S&R (Support and Resistance) levels with most recent and historical Trend Lines, generating signals for trades when Breaks/Bounces occur (Trade Open Signal triggers can be configured via very customizable indicator Input "Signal Trigger Matrix" settings). With signal for trade open, TP (Take Profit and SL (Stop Loss) levels are calculated as well and marked on the chart including alerts for each action of the trade. The indicator offers a variety of automated approaches for TP (Take-Profit) and SL (Stop-Loss) settings. These include static current/historical S&R (Support and Resistance) levels or S&R/Trend Lines dynamic breaks for TP (Take-Profit) and various SL (Stop-Loss) approaches, including ATR Trailing SL, opposite S&R (Support and Resistance) levels SL, opposite Trend Lines SL and more. This diverse set of tools ensure flexibility in tailoring TP (Take-Profit) and SL (Stop-Loss) parameters to different market conditions, contributing to a more adaptive and robust trading system. Additionally, a series of signal analysis tools, including market sentiment, candle bar analysis, divergence, and volume, enhance the precision of trading signals.
* Works with popular timeframes: 1M, 3M, 5M, 15M, 30M, 45M, 1H.
* Works well with Futures and Indices, can be used to trade Stocks, Crypto and FOREX.
* Includes LIVE alert/labels Breakouts and Bounces signal trigger feature, which can be used for scalping (NOTE: This approach cannot be backtested).
* Every action of the trade is calculated on a confirmed closed candle bar state (barstate.isconfirmed), so the indicator will never repaint.

STATS TABLE ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>> Trading STATS table on the chart showing current trade direction, Last TP (Take-Profit) Taken, Current Trade PL (profit/loss in price difference from trade open to the very current state).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
CUSTOM TRADING DATE RANGE /////////////////////////////////////////////////
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>>>> This feature can be used to manually set indicator trading range from and to a specific date and time. NOTE: This is not intended for a very long date range backtesting, utilize TradingView Strategy Tester for that.
* Use TradingView “Strategy Tester” to see Backtesting results
NOTE: If Strategy Tester does not show any results with Date Ranged fully unchecked, there may be an issue where a script opens a trade, but there is not enough TradingView power to set the Take-Profit and Stop-Loss and somehow an open trade gets stuck and never closes, so there are “no trades present”. In such case - manually check “Start”/“End” dates or use “Deep Backtesting” feature!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
INTRADAY ACTIVE TRADING SESSION CONFIGURATION /////////////////////////////
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>> Regional Active Trading Session Hours Schedule: If selected - trades will only open during regional active trading session, if 'OFF', there will be no trading schedule and trades will open 24/7.
>>> EOD(End of Day) Close - On/Off: Close the trade if it's still open at the end of active trading session (on the very last candle bar). NOTE: If no region is selected at 'Regional Active Trading Session Schedule' - there will be no EOD(End of Day) Close and trades will run overnight until either SL(Stop-Loss) or TP(Take-Profit) is hit!
>>>>> EOD(End of Day) Close - 1 candle bar before last: This is specifically for stocks as while usually indices can be closed 15minutes after the market closes, for stocks - the last candle bar closes at the same time with the market active trading session, which if closed - trades can't be closed until next day/session! Enable this setting for the trade to close/alert 1 candle bar before the last one, so there is still time to close the trade at the Broker (NOTE: depending on the timeframe, 1 candle bar can be: 15sec, 30sec, 1min, 3min, 5min, 15min, 30min, 45min, 1h).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
SIGNAL TRIGGER MATRIX ////////////////////////////////////////////////
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>> Trading Engine: This setting turns on TradingView Strategy trading engine for backtesting.
>>> Market Session Only: With this setting turned on, all signal trigger Breaks/Bounces will be hidden during Pre/Post market time.
>>> Plot S&R Levels/Lines: Plot S&R (Support and Resistance) on chart. Note: historical levels/lines will only be plotted if hit (Break/Bounce).
>>> Plot Trend Lines Levels/Lines: Plot Trend Lines levels/lines on chart. Note: historical levels/lines will only be plotted if hit (Break/Bounce).
>>> Use S&R Current Levels | Use S&R Historical Levels | Use Trend Lines Current Levels | Use Trend Lines Historical Levels |: Choose which levels should be used for Breaks/Bounces to be captured on. If all triggers are turned on/checked - whatever happens 1st wins the trigger.
>>> Breaks | Bounces: 'Breaks': Turn on Breaks through levels/lines signal trigger. | 'Bounces': Turn on Bounces off levels/lines signal trigger.
>>> Signal: Regular | Signal: S&R Combo | Signal: TL Combo | Signal: S&R + TL Combo | Signal: Repeat Action |: Trade open signal trigger execution approach MATRIX (If 1 or more turned on at the same time - whatever comes first will be the trade signal trigger). 'Regular': A single Break/Bounce must occur on a closed bar for signal trigger. 'S&R Combo': A combination of 2 Current + Historical S&R (Support and Resistance) Break/Bounce must happen in the same direction on same bar for signal trigger. 'TL Combo': A combination of 2 Current + Historical Trend Lines Break/Bounce must happen in the same direction on same bar for signal trigger. 'S&R + TL Combo': a combination of ANY S&R and Trend Line Break/Bounce must happen in the same direction on same bar for signal trigger. 'Repeat Action': Initial and then confirmation (2nd/3rd/etc. consecutive occurence) Break/Bounce must occur on same level/line for signal trigger.
>>> Historical - Look Back (# of days): How far back (in # of days) will historical S&R/Trend Lines will be used for Trade Open signals/TP/SL/etc.
>>> Historical - Look Back Invalidation (# of days): IF THERE IS TOO MUCH HISTORICAL LEVELS/LINES ON CHART - LOWER THIS SETTING + MAKE SURE IT'S SMALLER THAN 'Historical - Look Back (# of days)'. With big Look back period (5+ days) - it can become very messy with too many historical levels/lines. To clear oldest historical levels/lines - set Look Back Invalidation # of days to less than Historical Look Back # of days. (After X # of Look Back Invalidation days - older levels/lines will become invalidated and no longer used for opening trades/TP (Take-Profit)/SL (Stop-Loss), while newer levels/lines will still be discovered.
>>> S&R/Trend Lines - Support/Resistance combined into 1 entity: Every level or a line becomes simply a level or a line, regardless if it originally was a support or resistance. By default, depending on the level/line originally being support or resistance - the signal direction will be such as: Resistance is broken > LONG / bounced > SHORT; Support is broken > SHORT / bounced > LONG; with this setting on, either level or line can be both broken or bounced off in ANY direction, trade open direction will depend on current market sentiment only.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
S&R CONFIGURATION ////////////////////////////////////////////////
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>> S&R Search - Left Bars (current): This setting is for calculating optimal S&R (Support and Resistance) levels (in combination with below - Right Bars).
>>> S&R Search - Right Bars (current): This setting is for calculating optimal S&R (Support and Resistance) levels (in combination with above - Left Bars).
>>> S&R Search - Custom Resolution (current): This is a custom timeframe setting specifically for S&R Search, it disregards current chart timeframe. This is great to use for scalping, for example: with main chart set to 1min and the custom timeframe set to 3min or 5min - there will be stronger support/resistance levels with more detailed price action.
>>> S&R Search - Left Bars (historical): This setting is for calculating optimal S&R (Support and Resistance) levels (in combination with below - Right Bars).
>>> S&R Search - Right Bars (historical): This setting is for calculating optimal S&R (Support and Resistance) levels (in combination with above - Left Bars).
>>> S&R Search - Custom Resolution (historical): This is a custom timeframe setting specifically for S&R Search, it disregards current chart timeframe. This is great to use for scalping, for example: with main chart set to 1min and the custom timeframe set to 3min or 5min - there will be stronger support/resistance levels with more detailed price action.
>>> S&R - Historical S&R Levels - Extend to the right: Extend all S&R lines to the right.
>>> S&R (Current/Historical) - Live Breakout/Bounce - ALERT/SHOW: NOTE: Alert wlil trigger immediately at price Breaking thru or Bouncing off level/line and an arrow above /below the bar will show the direction of breakout/bounce. If on that same live bar - price comes back causing the Breakout/Bounce become no longer valid - the arrow will disappear as the condition of the Break/Bounce will no longer be valid.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TREND LINES CONFIGURATION ////////////////////////////////////////////////
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>> Show: Trend Line development (where it 'did not exist' yet): It takes 2 pivots to develop a trend line, pivot is established at least 3 candle bars later from where the pivot is. With this setting turned on - it will plot dashed lines where trend lines originated connecting the 1st and 2nd pivot point up to where the trend line became established (where in reality you would now be able to draw a certain trend line). Established already generated trend line are plotted with a solid line.
>>> Trend Lines - Line Slope Confirmation: LONG breakout will only be shown if trend line is goind downslope \. SHORT breakout will only be shown if trend line is goind upslope /.
>>> Trend Lines - Search - Left Bars (current): This setting is for calculating optimal Trend Lines.
>>> Trend Lines - Search - Right Bars (current): This setting is for calculating optimal Trend Lines.
>>> Trend Lines - Custom Resolution (current): This is a custom timeframe setting specifically for S&R Search, it disregards current chart timeframe. This is great to use for scalping, for example: with main chart set to 1min and the custom timeframe set to 3min or 5min - there will be stronger support/resistance levels with more detailed price action.
>>> Trend Lines - Search - Left Bars (historical): This setting is for calculating optimal Trend Lines.

>>> Trend Lines - Historical Trend Lines - Extend to the right: Extend all Trend Lines to the right.
>>> Trend Lines (Current/Historical) - Live Breakout/Bounce - ALERT/SHOW: NOTE: Alert will trigger immediately at price Breaking thru or Bouncing off level/line and an arrow above /below the bar will show the direction of breakout/bounce. If on that same live bar - price comes back causing the Breakout/Bounce become no longer valid - the arrow will disappear as the condition of the Break/Bounce will no longer be valid.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TAKE-PROFIT/STOP-LOSS CONFIGURATION ///////////////////////////////////////
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>> TP (Take-Profit) System: 'S&R Static Current/Historical': TP (Take-Profit) is calculated using current/historical S&R (Support & Resistance) levels at trade open and remains static. 'S&R/Trend Lines Dynamic Breaks': TP (Take-Profit) is fully dynamic and will be trigger at price above trade open price and with Breakout occurence (S&R or Trend Line current/historical breakout).
>>> TP (Take-Profit) # of targets: It is wise to divide the trade into several profit targets. With this setting - up to 5 TP (Take-Profit) targets can be approached. The trade will be equally divided up by the selected # of TP (Take-Profit) targets.
>>> SL (Stop-Loss) System: 'ATR-Trailing-SL': SL (Stop-Loss) is trail-following the ATR (Average True Range) line, NOTE: If at signal trigger, ATR will be against the trade direction - trade open signal will be skipped; 'S&R-Static-SL': SL (Stop-Loss) is set at trade open per optimal most recent S&R level and remains there until trade closes; 'TrendLines-Static-SL': SL (Stop-Loss) is set at trade open per optimal most recent trend line and remains there until trade closes; 'TrendLines-Dynamic-SL': SL (Stop-Loss) will be set per current opposite trend line and follow it until trade is open.; 'Oppos-Sig-Trd-in-Loss': SL (Stop-Loss) will trigger at opposite signal with trade currently at loss.
>>> SL (Stop-Loss) - On/Off: Without SL (Stop-Loss), unless EOD (End of Day) Close is turned on - there will be no SL (Stop-Loss) at all!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
MARKET SENTIMENT CONFIRMATION ///////////////////////////////////////
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>> Market Sentiment: Signal is confirmed per Market Sentiment direction. If Market Sentiment is turned off - whatever signal comes 1st will be the trade open trigger.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
SIGNAL ANALYSIS AND CLEANUP ///////////////////////////////////////////////
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>> Signal Cleanup - Bar Color: Include Bar Color (bullish/bearish) confirmation, LONG signal will only be opened if signal bar is green/bullish, SHORT if red/bearish.
>>> Signal Cleanup - Bar Directional Structure: Skip opposite bar structure types signals (For example: bearish green hammer).
>>> Signal Cleanup - Bar Doji Skip: Skip doji (indecisive) candles signals.
>>> Signal Cleanup - EWO (Elliott Wave Oscillator): Include EWO (Elliott Wave Oscillator), LONG will only be opened if EWO is bullish / SHORT if EWO is bearish.
>>> Signal Cleanup - VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price): Include VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price), LONG will only be opened if price is above VWAP / SHORT if price is below VWAP.
>>> Signal Cleanup - MA (Moving Average) Confirmation: Include MA (Moving Average), LONG will only be opened if MA is bullish / SHORT if MA is bearish.
>>> Signal Cleanup - ATR (Average True Range): Include ATR (Average True Range) confirmation, LONG will only be opened if ATR is bullish / SHORT if ATR is bearish.
>>> Signal Cleanup - Divergence(RSI + MACD): Include Divergence (RSI + MACD ) confirmation, LONG will only be opened if Divergence is bullish / SHORT if Divergence is bearish.
>>> Signal Cleanup - Volume % Strength: Include Volume strength/percentage confirmation, LONG/SHORT will only be opened with strong Volume matching the signal direction | By default, strong Volume percentage is set to 150% and weak to 50%.
>>> Signal Cleanup - Volume Above Average: Include Volume Above Moving Average (Volume closing bar closes above volume moving average) confirmation, LONG/SHORT will only be opened with Volume above average - Volume closed bar color must match the closed price color (bullish/bearish direction) + Volume bar must be closed above volume MA line).

TP System - VERY IMPORTANT INFO!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"TP PERCENTAGE" - amount by which current trade/position needs to be reduced/partially closed/sold.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TP System: Dynamic
"TP PERCENTAGE" - will always be the same amount (trade/position size divided by the # of take-profit(TP) targets) and percentage to be closed will always be of the ORIGINAL trade/position.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TP System: Static
"TP PERCENTAGE" - will always be the same amount IF take-profit(TP) targets are hit 1-by-1 (TP1 > TP2 > TP3 > TP4 > TP5), otherwise it will vary and unless it is a 1st take-profit(TP1), the REMAINING trade/position size will always be smaller than original and therefore the percentage to be closed will always be of the REMAINING trade/position and NOT the original one!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"TP PERCENTAGE" CheatSheet (these are the only percentages you may see)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
TP PERCENTAGE---Close/Sell Amount-------------Example (trade size: 50 stocks)
20%-------------trade size * 0.2--------------50 * 0.2 = 10 stocks
25%-------------trade size * 0.25-------------50 * 0.25 = 12.5(~13) stocks
34%-------------trade size * 0.34-------------50 * 0.34 = 17 stocks
40%-------------trade size * 0.4--------------50 * 0.4 = 20 stocks
50%-------------trade size * 0.5--------------50 * 0.5 = 25 stocks
60%-------------trade size * 0.6--------------50 * 0.6 = 30 stocks
66%-------------trade size * 0.66-------------50 * 0.66 = 33 stocks
75%-------------trade size * 0.75-------------50 * 0.75 = 37.5(~38) stocks
80%-------------trade size * 0.8--------------50 * 0.8 = 40 stocks
100%------------trade size--------------------50 = 50 stocks
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
If for any reason a portion of the current/remaining trade closed at such occurrence was slightly wrong, it is not an issue. Such occurrences are rare and with slight difference in partial TP closed is not significant to overall performance of our algorithms.

Adding Alerts in TradngView
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Add indicator to chart and make sure the correct strategy is configured (check Backtesting results)
-Right-click anywhere on the TradingView chart
-Click on Add alert
-Condition: Select this indicator by it’s name
-Immediately below, change it to "alert() function calls only", as other wise there will be 2 alerts for every alert!
-Expiration: Open-ended (that may require higher tier TradingView account, otherwise the alert will need to be occasionally re-triggered)
-Alert name: Whatever you desire
-Hit “Create”
-Note: If you change ANY Settings within the indicator – you must DELETE the current alert and create a new one per steps above, otherwise it will continue triggering alerts per old Settings!
===========================================================================
Good Luck! (NOTE: Trading is very risky, past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results, so please trade responsibly!)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: There seems to be a strange glitch when strategy is running live, it will show "double-take" take-profits labels on the chart. This is not affecting the script logic and backtesting results, if you simply change the timeframe real quick to something else then back - it will no longer show the duplicate orders... this must be some sort of a glitch as every alert was thoroughly tested to make sure everything is working!
KT Litmus2
Hello everyone,
Recently I saw a very good indicator on TV called Ichimoku Oscillator. This is a K-line convergence and divergence indicator similar to MACD. After backtesting research, this indicator performs well on long-term trends.
Since it is an indicator, it is made into a strategy category. Several optimizations have also been made.
This strategy takes into account the following market factors:
EMA -> Trend
Fast line - slow line -> moving average
EMA Squeeze -> Momentum Conversion, Trend
ATR -> Noise Reduction
How does it compare to the original indicator?
Optimized background display so the canvas doesn't feel cluttered with excessive colors.
Optimized part of the position reduction logic so that too many trading signals will not affect the performance of the strategy.
NOTE: As you can see, there are potential improvements that can be made by merging volumes.
Signal
Input level -> Kinetic energy enhancement, +4 long, -4 short
Partial exit level -> moving average (EMA | fast and slow line) crossing, trend unchanged
All exit levels -> trend conversion
Risk Management
"Trend Stop Loss" and "Momentum Take Profit" are used here.
Trend stop loss: Use the conversion of the strategy trend parameter wave range to close the order.
Momentum take profit: take advantage of the weakening or reverse trend momentum of the strategy to take profit.
As described, the strategy has obvious advantages in trend trading, but in volatile markets, stop loss may be triggered due to frequent signals.
Now, a set of knowledge is provided for the inexperienced reader.
MACD usually consists of three components. The MACD line is the fast exponential moving average (usually taken on the 12th day) minus the slow exponential moving average (usually taken on the 26th day), generally called the difference (DIF). The second line is the signal line, which is the exponential moving average of DIF (usually 9 days), generally called DEA. The last component is the MACD histogram, whose value is the difference between DIF and DEA. However, the time value of the MACD indicator can also be adjusted according to the trader's preference and trading category.
The underlying logic of DIF is that the short-term exponential moving average reflects current price movements, while the long-term EMA reflects earlier price movements. Therefore, if there is a large gap between these two EMAs, then the market is trending up or down. While the MACD histogram is oscillating around the zero line, indicating the strength of the trend.
EMA: Exponential Moving Average; similar to a simple moving average but exponentially weights the input data.
Sincerely,
salute

Strategies for increasing Python version
Turtle Trading Strategy@lihexieThe full implementation of the Turtle Trading Rules (as distinct from the various truncated versions circulating within the community) is now ready.
This trading strategy script distinguishes itself from all currently publicly available Turtle trading systems on Tradingview by comprehensively embodying the rules for entries, exits, position management, and profit and loss controls.
Market Selection:
Trade in highly liquid markets such as forex, commodity futures, and stock index futures.
Entry Strategies:
Model 1: Buy when the price breaks above the highest point of the last 20 trading days; Sell when the price drops below the lowest point of the last 20 trading days. When an entry opportunity arises, if the previous trade was profitable, skip the current breakout opportunity and refrain from entering.
Model 2: Buy when the price breaks above the highest point of the last 55 trading days; Sell when the price drops below the lowest point of the last 55 trading days.
Position Sizing:
Determine the size of each position based on the price volatility (ATR) to ensure that the risk of each trade does not exceed 2% of the account balance.
Exit Strategies:
1. Use a fixed stop-loss point to limit losses: Close long positions when the price falls below the lowest point of the last 10 trading days.
2. Trailing stop-loss: Once a position is profitable, adjust the stop-loss point to protect profits.
Pyramiding Rules:
Unit Doubling: Increase position size by one unit every time the price moves forward by n (default is 0.5) units of ATR, up to a maximum of 4 units, while also raising the stop-loss point to below the ATR value at the level of additional entries.
海龟交易法则的完整实现（区别于当前社区各种有阉割海龟交易系统代码）
本策略脚本区别于Tradingview目前公开的所有的海龟交易系统，完整的实现了海龟交易法则中入场、出场、仓位管理，止盈止损的规则。
市场选择：
选择流动性高的市场进行交易，如外汇、商品期货和股指期货等。
入市策略：
模式1：当价格突破过去20个交易日的高点时，买入；当价格跌破过去20个交易日的低点时，卖出。当出现入场机会时，如果上一笔交易是盈利的，那么跳过当前突破的机会，不进行入场。
模式2：当价格突破过去55个交易日的高点时，买入；当价格跌破过去55个交易日的低点时，卖出。
头寸规模：
根据价格波动性（ATR）来确定每个头寸的大小, 使每笔交易的风险不超过账户余额的2%。
退出策略：
1. 使用一个固定的止损点来限制损失：当多头头寸的价格跌破过去10个交易日的低点时，平仓止损。
2. 跟踪止损：一旦头寸盈利，移动止损点以保护利润。
加仓规则：
单位加倍：每当价格向前n（默认是0.5）个单位的ATR移动时，就增加一个单位的头寸大小（默认最大头寸数量是4个），同时将止损点提升至加仓点位的ATR值以下。
TTP Intelligent AccumulatorThe intelligent accumulator is a proof of concept strategy. A hybrid between a recurring buy and TA-based entries and exits.
Distribute the amount of equity and add to your position as long as the TA condition is valid.
Use the exit TA condition to define your exit strategy.
Decide between adding only into losing positions to average down or take a riskier approach by allowing to add into a winning position as well.
Take full profit or distribute your exit into multiple take profit exists of the same size.
You can also decide if you allow your exit conditions to close your position in a loss or require a minimum take profit %.
The strategy includes a default built-in TA conditions just for showcasing the idea but the final intent of this script is to delegate the TA entries and exists to external sources.
The internal conditions use RSI length 7 crossing below the BB with std 1 for entries and above for exits.
To control the number of orders use the properties from settings:
- adjust the pyramiding
- adjust the percentage of equity
- make sure that pyramiding * % equity equals 100 to prevent over use of equity (unless using leverage)
The script is designed as an alternative to daily or weekly recurring buys but depending on the accuracy of your TA conditions it might prove profitable also in lower timeframes.
The reason the script is named Intelligent is because recurring buy is most commonly used without any decision making: buy no matter what with certain frequency. This strategy seeks to still perform recurring buys but filtering out some of the potential bad entries that can delay unnecessarily seeing the position in profits. The second reason is also securing an exit strategy from the beginning which no recurring buy option offers out-of-the-box.
MACD + MA HTF Strategy - Dynamic SmoothingMACD + MA HTF Strategy - Dynamic Smoothing
The MACD alone generally gives too many false signals and is therefore often used in combination with different indicators. The basic idea to combine the MACD with a moving average on a higher time frame is a commonly used technique to only enter Longs in a uptrend and only Shorts in a downtrend while trading on lower timeframe charts. However, the main issue in many strategy scripts is that the HTF indicator is not visible on lower timecharts. With this strategy example I used the Dynamic Smoothing code to visualise the HTF MA filter to display on you lower timechart. This way it is easier to optimize the strategy settings to the instrument chart.
Orginality and Usefulness - Dynamic Smoothing
Visualizing a higher time frame on a lower timechart often gives jagged lines on your chart. As the calculation is done on less bars, compared to the bars you have open on your timechart. The dynamic smoothing factor is derived by taking the ratio of minutes of the higher time frame to the current time frame. This ensures the moving average remains fluid and consistent across different time frames, eliminating 'jagged' lines on your chart. This new MA value is then used as HTF filter on top of the MACD entry settings. Always make sure the time chart is equal or lower than the timeframe settings in the configuration settings. The intention of the script is to visualise the higher time frame confirmations while trading on a lower timechart.
Code example how to achieve Dynamic Smoothing:
// Get minutes for current and higher timeframes
// Function to convert a timeframe string to its equivalent in minutes
timeframeToMinutes(tf) =>
multiplier = 1
if (str.endswith(tf, "D"))
multiplier := 1440
else if (str.endswith(tf, "W"))
multiplier := 10080
else if (str.endswith(tf, "M"))
multiplier := 43200
else if (str.endswith(tf, "H"))
multiplier := int(str.tonumber(str.replace(tf, "H", "")))
else
multiplier := int(str.tonumber(str.replace(tf, "m", "")))
multiplier
// Get minutes for current and higher timeframes
currentTFMinutes = timeframeToMinutes(timeframe.period)
higherTFMinutes = timeframeToMinutes(TimeFrame_Trend)
// Calculate the smoothing factor
dynamicSmoothing = math.round(higherTFMinutes / currentTFMinutes)
MA_Value_Smooth = ta.sma(MA_Value_HTF, dynamicSmoothing)
Complete Strategy
The MACD and HTF moving average is used to determine when to enter a new position. However a strategy should consider more factors than only the timing of entering a trade. To complete the strategy I included:
an option to choose from different MA types per indicator
a Risk Management Tool
a Take Profit Logic
a Trailing stop loss
a Hard Stoploss
a visual representation of TP and SL
This is merely an example how to structure a strategy and many different setups are possible.
The features in this script are explained below:
Different MA types
The script supports various MA types like EMA, SMA, DEMA, TEMA, WMA and HMA. You can select the MA type and different timeframe to your liking.
Risk Management Tool
Traders can choose to allocate their position size based on a percentage of equity or a fixed number of contracts. This feature ensures prudent risk management and helps traders align their position sizes with their risk tolerance. In the strategy -0.5 is equal to 50% of equity and 1.5 is 150% of equity used. Make sure to align the % of equity with your maxdrawn results with backtesting. Personally I don't want higher max drawdowns than 15%. For the strategy results the script considers 0.05 commission rate on each trade, to stay conservative. For a more detailed explanation I refer to my earlier published tradingviewblog about risk management:
Take Profit Logic
The take profit logic in this script is designed for optimization, offering three distinct exit levels. Traders can customize these levels based on their risk appetite. The script allows adjustment of both the percentage take profit level and the position size, catering to individual trading strategies and objectives. The default settings closes 33% of the position when TP target is hit. The TP levels are simply calculated by inputting a % of of the entryprice.
Trailing Stop and Hard Stoploss
To mitigate downside risks and protect profits, the script incorporates a well-thought-out trailing stop mechanism based on the Average True Range (ATR). This dynamic trailing stop adapts to market volatility, allowing traders to secure gains while letting profitable positions run. Additionally, to prevent significant losses, a fixed stop loss is implemented, providing an added layer of protection.
Visual Representation of Take Profit and Stoploss Levels
For enhanced visualization, take profit and stoploss levels are displayed on the chart. Take profit levels are depicted with green lines, providing a clear indication of potential exit points. Conversely, the trailing stop loss is presented by the red line, serving as visual cues for risk management. Visualizing indicators makes is easier to optimize settings to your liking.
Ideal Settings and Accessibility
This script is intended to be used on lower timeframe charts like 10 to 30 minutes. You can Align the MACD entry settings equal to your opened timechart or use a slightly higher timeframe. For the MA trend filters, higher timeframe settings such as 30 min, 1 hour, 4 hours, or 1 day are recommended for trading the trend.
Disclaimer
Trading involves significant risk and may not be suitable for all investors. The information provided in this script is for educational purposes only and should not be considered as financial advice. Past performance is not indicative of future results. By using this script, you acknowledge that you understand and accept these risks.
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.

Price Action Pattern Breakout Strategy: Wedge,Triangle,ChannelIntroducing the Price Action Pattern Breakout Strategy: Wedge,Triangle,Channel 💹🚀
The "Price Action Pattern Breakout Strategy: Wedge, Triangle, Channel" is a dynamic and automated trading strategy that excels in recognizing and capitalizing on breakout opportunities within the realm of powerful price action patterns. It is finely tuned to achieve exceptional precision in detecting three distinct pattern types: Wedge, Triangle, and Channel. This diversity equips you to confidently navigate a wide range of market scenarios and opportunities.
This strategy automates trade entries and exits upon confirmed pattern breakouts, this eliminates human errors in correctly recognizing patterns and prevents emotional decisions. This strategy is designed to work across different time frames, making it suitable for both short-term and long-term traders. Whether you're a day trader, swing trader, or investor, this strategy provides the flexibility you need to thrive in diverse market conditions.
💎 How it Works:
▶️ In this strategy, three price action patterns have been utilized, one of which is the "Wedge" pattern. The Wedge pattern has consistently demonstrated a high level of credibility, typically resulting in sharp and rapid price movements following a confirmed breakout from this pattern. This characteristic makes the Wedge pattern highly noteworthy in our strategy. The second pattern is the "Triangle" pattern, which, depending on its formation, whether ascending or descending, can indicate a strong continuation or reversal of the trend. The last pattern is the "Channel" pattern. The reason for using the Channel pattern is its versatility in various market conditions and its tendency to produce reliable results.
In the snapshot below, you can observe the types of patterns that this strategy is capable of identifying at a glance:
▶️ This strategy employs two types of targeting systems: Fixed Targets and Trailing Targets.
Fixed Targets is the default targeting system of the strategy, incorporating two primary targets: TP1 (Target Point 1) and TP2 (Target Point 2). These targets are thoughtfully adjusted in alignment with specific rules for each pattern. With Fixed Targets, you have the flexibility to designate the position size percentage for your exits at TP1 and TP2. For instance, should you opt to allocate 60% of your position size to TP1, as soon as the price triggers the first take profit level, 60% of your initial position is gracefully closed, leaving the remaining 40% to exit the trade upon reaching TP2.
Trailing Targets represent the strategy's alternative targeting system. With this system, the trailing stop becomes active once the price reaches the specified trigger point. The strategy then exits the trade based on the defined offset percentage and price retracement from the trailing limit.
▶️ This strategy relies on a single type of stop loss, determined by previous pivot points and adjusted based on the trade's direction, whether long or short, placing the stop loss above or below the prior pivot. This stop loss approach has demonstrated reliability when used alongside price action patterns.
In addition to this fixed stop loss, you can specify a percentage buffer, offering protection against potential stop hunting due to market fluctuations. This buffer helps protect your positions from sudden price swings. For example, selecting a 1% buffer means your stop loss will be positioned 1% higher or lower concerning the last pivot, depending on your trade's direction. This added layer of security ensures your trades remain resilient and less vulnerable to market volatility.
▶️ A practical feature of this strategy is the "Risk-Free" option. Once activated, it continuously monitors price movements, and as soon as the price progresses in the trade's direction and surpasses the designated Risk-Free Trigger Point in percentage, the stop loss is dynamically shifted from its initial position to the entry price, effectively making the trade "risk-free." This means that if the trade doesn't go as expected, we exit at the entry point, incurring neither profit nor loss from the trade.
Additionally, you have the flexibility to fine-tune the modified stop loss, positioning it slightly above or below the entry price through the configuration of a specified percentage. This allows for effective consideration of commission fees in your trading strategy.
▶️ Risk management is a crucial concept in trading, playing a significant role in a trader's long-term success. This strategy introduces a unique feature called "Fixed Loss Position Sizing", where upon activation, you can limit the risk exposure to a specified percentage of your capital per trade. Set your preferred risk percentage along with the intended leverage. The strategy independently considers your available capital and designated leverage, determining the position size before executing any trade.
In the case of a stop loss, your loss is limited to the specified risk percentage. For instance, with a $1000 account and a 1% risk set, the strategy adjusts each trade's size to ensure a maximum loss of $10 if the stop loss is triggered. Enabling this feature will ensure disciplined risk management, aligning potential losses precisely with your predetermined risk percentage, contingent upon your total available capital.
▶️ Another feature of this strategy is a sophisticated mechanism called "Loss Compensation". When enabled, Loss Compensation dynamically adjusts the position size after a loss, aiming to recover from previous losses in subsequent trades. This adaptive mechanism continually modifies the position size to mitigate the impact of consecutive losses until reaching a user-defined limit for consecutive loss compensations.
The feature's configurability allows users to set the maximum number of consecutive losses to compensate for and also includes an option to factor in trading fees from prior trades into the compensation calculation. Loss Compensation operates in conjunction with the 'Fixed Loss Position Sizing' setting, ensuring that once losses are sufficiently compensated, subsequent entries revert to the predefined configurations within the 'Fixed Loss Position Sizing' settings.
This advanced tool ensures a stable risk management approach by changing trade sizes dynamically according to past results during consecutive loss periods.
▶️ This strategy incorporates a feature known as the "Counter-Pattern Breakout", altering its approach to wedge, triangle, and channel pattern breakouts. Normally, the strategy relies on standard pattern signals to determine whether to enter long or short positions based on breakout directions.
For example, in an ascending channel or a rising wedge pattern, the strategy typically seeks a short position opportunity upon a confirmed breakout in the lower line, and breakouts from the upper line are disregarded by the strategy. But with this feature enabled, strategy disregards the conventional pattern signals, seizing breakouts from upper or lower lines to open corresponding positions. For instance, in the ascending channel or the rising wedge pattern example, the strategy might enter a long position if the upper line breaks or a short position if the lower line breaks.
This introduces a more adaptive and opportunistic trading style, allowing you to capitalize on price movements, irrespective of the typical signal direction indicated by the pattern.
▶️ This strategy is fully compatible with third-party trading bots, allowing for easy connectivity to popular trading platforms. By leveraging the TradingView webhook functionality, you can effortlessly link the strategy to your preferred bot and receive accurate signals for position entry and exit. The strategy provides all the necessary alert message fields, ensuring a smooth and user-friendly trading experience. With this integration, you can automate the execution of trades, saving time and effort while enjoying the benefits of this powerful strategy.
⚙️ How to Use & Configure User Settings:
To fully utilize the "Price Action Pattern Breakout Strategy: Wedge, Triangle, Channel," it's essential to consider and comprehend the following steps. They play a crucial role in enhancing its functionality and achieving its utmost potential outcomes:
1. General Strategy Settings:
Enable Dark Mode if using a dark TradingView theme for improved chart visibility.
Select the Strategy's Trade Direction: Long, Short, or Both.
Choose Pattern Recognition Accuracy: High for precise recognition but fewer positions, Low for more positions with slightly less accuracy.
Enable 'Prevent New Entry on Opposite Signal While In Position' to avoid new trades if the opposite signal occurs.
Switch to Indicator Mode if solely using the strategy as an indicator or in combination with other strategies.
2. Pattern and Pivot Configuration:
Consider configuring the Number of Patterns and Pivot Lookback Lengths. Here, you can personalize the pivot lookback lengths for wedge, triangle, and channel patterns across eight different settings on your chart. For lower time frames, consider larger lengths to reduce chart noise. Alternatively, to maintain clarity on your chart, you can disable multiple patterns with different lengths while ensuring at least one pattern remains enabled.
Note that enabling more patterns doesn't always equate to increased potential profit. Sometimes, fewer patterns result in greater profit potential, and vice versa. Experiment with lengths and the number of patterns to determine the most profitable and optimal outcome for your trading symbol and timeframe.
3. Targeting System Selection:
Choose between 'Fixed Targets' or 'Trailing Targets' for your targeting system.
'Fixed Targets' is the default setting, operational when 'Trailing Targets' are turned off.
Set the TP1 Position Size as a percentage, defining the size for TP1, and the rest exits at TP2.
Optionally activate 'Skip Entry if TP1 is Passed' to bypass entering positions if the price has exceeded TP1.
Alternatively, opt for the 'Trailing Target' for dynamic exits based on trigger points and offsets. Note that this option disables fixed targets.
4. Stop Loss Configuration:
Determine the number of candles to consider for stop loss placement based on the last pivot.
Optionally add a percentage to the stop loss to create a buffer against market fluctuations, guarding your positions from sudden price swings.
5. Risk Management Configuration:
You can activate the 'Risk-Free' feature, making your trades risk-free by moving the stop loss to the entry price upon reaching a specified trigger point.
You have the possibility to enable 'Fixed Loss Position Sizing' to limit risk to a percentage of total capital per trade, ensuring prudent risk management.
You can employ 'Use Real-Time Balance for Each Entry' to precisely calculate fixed loss position sizing according to the real-time balance for every entry.
The 'Loss Compensation' feature can be activated to automatically adjust trade sizes during consecutive losses and compensate for prior incurred losses.
Loss compensation continues adjusting trade sizes until it reaches the defined limit of consecutive losses specified in the 'Maximum Consecutive Losses To Compensate' field.
You can factor in commission fees by specifying a percentage in the 'Include Trading Fees in Compensation (%)' field, providing an option for more accurate loss compensation calculations.
You have the option to enable 'Limit Compensation to Real-Time Balance' to prevent consecutive loss compensation from exceeding your current real-time account balance.
It's important to note that for the 'Loss Compensation' feature to operate, the 'Fixed Loss Position Sizing' must be enabled.
6. Counter-Pattern Breakout Configuration:
In this section you have the option to enable the "Counter-Pattern Breakout" feature to adjust the strategy's approach to wedge, triangle, and channel pattern breakouts. Once enabled, the strategy disregards traditional pattern signals and capitalizes on breakouts from either the upper or lower lines, initiating corresponding positions accordingly.
Choose between 'Fixed Target' or 'Trailing Target' for your targeting system. If you opt for the 'Fixed Target', set a specific target point as a percentage, serving as the default target for counter-pattern breakouts. Alternatively, choose the 'Trailing Target' for dynamic exits based on trigger points and offsets. Do keep in mind that selecting the 'Trailing Target' option disables the fixed target setting.
Keep in mind that for standard, non-counter-pattern breakouts, the target point settings in their respective sections remain applicable, distinct from the settings configured for targeting within this section.
Note that the stop loss configurations are shared across standard pattern and counter-pattern breakouts and can be adjusted within the stop loss section.
7. Info Tables:
In the info tables section, you can show or hide different tables on the charts. This includes the backtest table, the current balance table displaying available funds, and a table showcasing Maximum Consecutive Wins or Losses. Choose which to display according to your preferences and specific needs.
8.Date & Time Range Filter:
Utilize the Date & Time Range filter feature to precisely select a start and end date, including time, to filter data within the chosen range.
When connecting this strategy to a trading bot for automated trades, ensure to set the start date and time to the intended initiation moment to avoid undesired outcomes as this directly affects the real-time balance calculations of the strategy.
8. Integration with Third-Party Bots:
To automate trading, leverage the strategy's compatibility with third-party trading bots. Seamlessly integrate the strategy into well-known trading platforms by using alert message fields to input commands from third-party trading bots, enabling automated trade execution for both long and short positions.
By furnishing these adjustable settings, the strategy empowers you to personalize it according to your unique requirements, thereby bolstering the adaptability and efficacy of your trading approach.

Narrow Range StrategyNarrow Range Strategy :
INTRODUCTION :
This strategy is based on the Narrow Range Day concept, implying that low volatility will generate higher volatility in the days ahead. The strategy sends us buy and sell signals with well-defined profit targets. It's a medium/long-term strategy. There's also a money management method that allows us to reinvest part of the profits or reduce the size of orders in the event of substantial losses.
NARROW RANGE (NR) DAY :
A Narrow Range Day is a day in which price variations are included in those of a specific day some time before. The high and low of this specific day form the "reference range". In general, we compare these variations with those of 4 or 7 days ago. The mathematical formula for finding an NR4 is :
If low > low(4) and high < high(4) :
nr = true
This implies that the current low is greater than the low of 4 days ago, and the current high is smaller than the high of 4 days ago. So today's volatility is lower than that of 4 days ago, and may be a sign of high volatility to come.
PARAMETERS :
Narrow Range Length : Corresponds to the number of candles back to compare current volatility. The default is 4, allowing comparison of current volatility with that of 4 candles ago.
Stop Loss : Percentage of the reference range on which to set an exit order to limit losses. The minimum value is 0.001, while the maximum is 1. The default value is 0.35.
Fixed Ratio : This is the amount of gain or loss at which the order quantity is changed. The default is 400, which means that for each $400 gain or loss, the order size is increased or decreased by an amount chosen by the user.
Increasing Order Amount : This is the amount to be added to or subtracted from orders when the fixed ratio is reached. The default is $200, which means that for every $400 gain, $200 is reinvested in the strategy. On the other hand, for every $400 loss, the order size is reduced by $200.
Initial capital : $1000
Fees : Interactive Broker fees apply to this strategy. They are set at 0.18% of the trade value.
Slippage : 3 ticks or $0.03 per trade. Corresponds to the latency time between the moment the signal is received and the moment the order is executed by the broker.
Important : A bot was used to test NR4 and NR7 with all possible Stop Losses in order to find out which combination generates the highest return on BITSTAMP:ETHUSD while limiting the drawdown. This strategy is the most optimal with an NR4 and a SL of 35% of the reference range size in 5D timeframe.
BUY AND SHORT SIGNALS :
When an NR is spotted, we create two stop orders on the high and low of the reference range. As soon as there's a breakout from this reference range (shown in blue on the chart), we open a position. We're LONG if there's a breakout on the high and SHORT if there's a breakout on the low. Executing a stop order cancels the second stop order.
RISK MANAGEMENT :
This strategy is subject to losses. We manage our risk with Stop Losses. The user is free to enter a SL as a percentage of the reference range. The maximum amount risked per trade therefore depends on the size of the range. The larger the range, the greater the risk. That's why we have set a maximum Stop Loss to 10% to limiting risks per trade.
The special feature of this strategy is that it targets a precise profit objective. This corresponds to the size of the reference range at the top of the high if you're LONG, or at the bottom of the low if you're short. In the same way, the larger the reference range, the greater the potential profits.
The risk reward remains the same for all trades and amounts to : 100/35 = 2.86. If the reference range is too high, we have set a SL to 10% of the trade value to limit losses. In that case, the risk reward is less than 2.86.
MONEY MANAGEMENT :
The fixed ratio method was used to manage our gains and losses. For each gain of an amount equal to the value of the fixed ratio, we increase the order size by a value defined by the user in the "Increasing order amount" parameter. Similarly, each time we lose an amount equal to the value of the fixed ratio, we decrease the order size by the same user-defined value. This strategy increases both performance and drawdown.
NOTE :
Please note that the strategy is backtested from 2017-01-01. As the timeframe is 5D, this strategy is a medium/long-term strategy. That's why only 37 trades were closed. Be careful, as the test sample is small and performance may not necessarily reflect what may happen in the future.
Enjoy the strategy and don't forget to take the trade :)
Improved EMA & CDC Trailing Stop StrategyImproved EMA & CDC Trailing Stop Strategy
Objective: This strategy seeks to exploit potential trend reversals or continuations using Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) and a trailing stop based on the Chande Dynamic Convergence Divergence (CDC) ATR method.
Components:
Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs):
60-period EMA (Blue Line): Faster-moving average that reacts more quickly to price changes.
90-period EMA (Red Line): Slower-moving average that provides a smoother indication of long-term price direction.
MACD Indicator:
Utilized to confirm the trend direction. When the MACD line is above its signal line, it may indicate a bullish trend. Conversely, when the MACD line is below its signal line, it may indicate a bearish trend.
CDC Trailing Stop ATR:
Used to set dynamic stop-loss levels that adjust with market volatility. This stop is based on the Average True Range (ATR) with a user-defined multiplier, providing the strategy with a flexible way to protect against adverse price movements.
Profit Targets:
Based on a multiple of the ATR, this sets an objective level at which to take profits, ensuring gains are captured while potentially still leaving room for further profitable movement.
Trading Rules:
Entry:
Long (Buy) Entry Conditions:
Price is above the 60-period EMA.
The 60-period EMA is above the 90-period EMA.
The MACD line is above its signal line.
Price is above the calculated CDC Trailing Stop ATR level.
Short (Sell) Entry Conditions:
Price is below the 60-period EMA.
The 60-period EMA is below the 90-period EMA.
The MACD line is below its signal line.
Price is below the calculated CDC Trailing Stop ATR level.
Exit:
Long (Buy) Exit Conditions:
Price reaches the predetermined profit target based on the ATR.
Price drops below the CDC Trailing Stop ATR level.
Short (Sell) Exit Conditions:
Price reaches the predetermined profit target based on the ATR.
Price rises above the CDC Trailing Stop ATR level.
Visualization:
The strategy displays the 60-period and 90-period EMAs on the chart.
The CDC Trailing Stop ATR levels for both long and short trades are also plotted for clarity.
The MACD Histogram is shown to visualize the difference between the MACD line and its signal line.
Recommendations: Before deploying this strategy, traders should backtest it across various historical data sets and market conditions. Regularly reviewing and potentially adjusting the strategy is recommended as market dynamics evolve.
YinYang RSI Volume Trend StrategyThere are many strategies that use RSI or Volume but very few that take advantage of how useful and important the two of them combined are. This strategy uses the Highs and Lows with Volume and RSI weighted calculations on top of them. You may be wondering how much of an impact Volume and RSI can have on the prices; the answer is a lot and we will discuss those with plenty of examples below, but first…
How does this strategy work?
It’s simple really, when the purchase source crosses above the inner low band (red) it creates a Buy or Long. This long has a Trailing Stop Loss band (the outer low band that's also red) that can be adjusted in the Settings. The Stop Loss is based on a % of the inner low band’s price and by default it is 0.1% lower than the inner band’s price. This Stop Loss is not only a stop loss but it can also act as a Purchase Available location.
You can get back into a trade after a stop loss / take profit has been hit when your Reset Purchase Availability After condition has been met. This can either be at Stop Loss, Entry or None.
It is advised to allow it to reset in case the stop loss was a fake out but the call was right. Sometimes it may trigger stop loss multiple times in a row, but you don’t lose much on stop loss and you gain lots when the call is right.
The Take Profit location is the basis line (white). Take Profit occurs when the Exit Source (close, open, high, low or other) crosses the basis line and then on a different bar the Exit Source crosses back over the basis line. For example, if it was a Long and the bar’s Exit Source closed above the basis line, and then 2 bars later its Exit Source closed below the basis line, Take Profit would occur. You can disable Take Profit in Settings, but it is very useful as many times the price will cross the Basis and then correct back rather than making it all the way to the opposing zone.
Longs:
If for instance your Long doesn’t need to Take Profit and instead reaches the top zone, it will close the position when it crosses above the inner top line (green).
Please note you can change the Exit Source too which is what source (close, open, high, low) it uses to end the trades.
The Shorts work the same way as the Long but just opposite, they start when the purchase source crosses under the inner upper band (green).
Shorts:
Shorts take profit when it crosses under the basis line and then crosses back.
Shorts will Stop loss when their outer upper band (green) is crossed with the Exit Source.
Short trades are completed and closed when its Exit Source crosses under the inner low red band.
So, now that you understand how the strategy works, let’s discuss why this strategy works and how it is profitable.
First we will discuss Volume as we deem it plays a much bigger role overall and in our strategy:
As I’m sure many of you know, Volume plays a huge factor in how much something moves, but it also plays a role in the strength of the movement. For instance, let’s look at two scenarios:
Bitcoin’s price goes up $1000 in 1 Day but the Volume was only 10 million
Bitcoin’s price goes up $200 in 1 Day but the Volume was 40 million
If you were to only look at the price, you’d say #1 was more important because the price moved x5 the amount as #2, but once you factor in the volume, you know this is not true. The reason why Volume plays such a huge role in Price movement is because it shows there is a large Limit Order battle going on. It means that both Bears and Bulls believe that price is a good time to Buy and Sell. This creates a strong Support and Resistance price point in this location. If we look at scenario #2, when there is high volume, especially if it is drastically larger than the average volume Bitcoin was displaying recently, what can we decipher from this? Well, the biggest take away is that the Bull’s won the battle, and that likely when that happens we will see bullish movement continuing to happen as most of the Bears Limit Orders have been fulfilled. Whereas with #2, when large price movement happens and Bitcoin goes up $1000 with low volume what can we deduce? The main takeaway is that Bull’s pressured the price up with Market Orders where they purchased the best available price, also what this means is there were very few people who were wanting to sell. This generally dictates that Whale Limit orders for Sells/Shorts are much higher up and theres room for movement, but it also means there is likely a whale that is ready to dump and crash it back down.
You may be wondering, what did this example have to do with YinYang RSI Volume Trend Strategy? Well the reason we’ve discussed this is because we use Volume multiple times to apply multiplications in our calculations to add large weight to the price when there is lots of volume (this is applied both positively and negatively). For instance, if the price drops a little and there is high volume, our strategy will move its bounds MUCH lower than the price actually dropped, and if there was low volume but the price dropped A LOT, our strategy will only move its bounds a little. We believe this reflects higher levels of price accuracy than just price alone based on the examples described above.
Don’t believe us?
Here is with Volume NOT factored in (VWMA = SMA and we remove our Volume Filter calculation):
Which produced -$2880 Profit
Here is with our Volume factored in:
Which produced $553,000 (55.3%)
As you can see, we wen’t from $-2800 profit with volume not factored to $553,000 with volume factored. That's quite a big difference! (Please note previous success does not predict future success we are simply displaying the $ amounts as example).
Now how about RSI and why does it matter in this strategy?
As I’m sure most of you are aware, RSI is one of the leading indicators used in trading. For this reason we figured it would only make sense to incorporate it into our calculations. We fiddled with RSI for quite awhile and sometimes what logically seems to be the right way to use it isn’t. Now, because of this, our RSI calculation is a little odd, but basically what we’re doing is we calculate the RSI, then turn it into a percentage (between 0-1) that can easily be multiplied to the price point we need. The price point we use is the difference between our high purchase zone and our low purchase zone. This allows us to see how much price movement there is between zones. We multiply our zone size with our RSI multiplication and we get the amount we will add +/- to our basis line (white line). This officially creates the NEW high and low purchase zones that we are actually using and displaying in our trades.
If you found that confusing, here are some examples to why it is an important calculation for this strategy:
Before RSI factored in:
Which produced 27.8% Profit
After RSI factored in:
Which produced 553% Profit
As you can see, the RSI makes not only the purchase zones more accurate, but it also greatly increases the profit the strategy is able to make. It also helps ensure an relatively linear profit slope so you know it is reliable with its trades.
This strategy can work on pretty much anything, but you should tweak the values a bit for each pair you are trading it with for best results.
We hope you can find some use out of this simple but effective strategy, if you have any questions, comments or concerns please let us know.
HAPPY TRADING!
Market Breadth Strategy/Introduction
The Market Breadth Strategy (MBS) is a versatile strategy for trading the US stock market. MBS is suitable for traders with low, medium and high risk tolerance who prefer trading equities as an asset class on the 1 day timeframe. It combines mean reversion with trend following to keep you participating in the stock market for as long as is profitable.
/Signals
The strategy is long only. Four different signals are generated to ensure all opportunities the market presents are seized for profit. The first category of signals are triggered after a prolonged period of falling prices; usually during a bear market or severe correction, open your largest positions on this signal. The second category of signals are triggered at the end of the bear market, early in the recovery. They ensure you do not miss out on an early entry if you get stopped out of your initial positions, size them equal to the first category signal positions. The third category of signals are triggered late in the recovery from a bear market, severe correction or deep pullback. Open your smallest positions on this signal. The fourth category of signals are triggered at all times when the market experiences a significant pullback or time correction, these positions should be medium sized.
For optimum performance, whenever signals are triggered, traders are advised to open at least, a new long position. Buying the index is recommended for traders with low risk tolerance, buying sector, industry or thematic ETFs (after sufficient analysis) is recommended for traders with medium risk tolerance, while buying stocks (after sufficient analysis) is recommended for traders who want to take on higher risk for higher returns. Such traders may also combine positions in indices, groups and individual stocks for better performance.
/Interpretation
MBS will display an upward blue arrow signifying a buy signal after the candle closes. A label below the arrow will describe which signal was triggered and a number depicting the number of positions (they can be deactivated in the style settings). MBS will also display a downwards pink arrow above the candle, after a specified decline from the high, again when the candle closes. All open positions will be closed on this signal, it is the risk management feature of the strategy.
/Construction
The strategy is built using market breadth data from the US Exchanges where stocks are listed, it is not a mash-up of different indicators. A combination of the following data is used:
(i) the number of advancing and declining issues
(ii) the number of issues reaching new highs
(iii) the closing prices of issues relative to key moving averages
This data is analysed and used to generate the four categories of signals described previously, they are named;
(i) Bottom Signal - for buying at the market's potential bottom
(ii) Follow-Up Signal - for ensuring you do not miss the bottom
(iii)Follow-Through Signal - for buying strength after a downtrend
(iv) Buy-The-Dip Signal - for buying throwbacks in uptrends and pullbacks in downtrends
/Settings
This strategy works best with the default settings. Although the input parameters can be changed to suit your needs, it is not advisable to do so as it may affect the strategy's performance.
(i) The market regime filter checks to see if the market is in a regime of rising prices (bull market) or falling prices (bear market), long signals are avoided in bear market conditions.
(ii) The risk size is equivalent to a stop loss. It triggers an exit when price declines by a certain amount.
(iii) 'Downside' measures the participation of issues to the downside during a decline while 'Upside' measures the participation of issues to the upside after the decline; this is called 'follow through'.
(iv) The bottom interval determines the frequency of bottom signals issued in days.
(v) Dip size quantifies the dip to determine if it is large enough for a buy signal, the lower the number, the larger the dip.
(vi) Following interval sets the duration for following up on the bottom.
(vii) Bottoming interval resets the bottom for the next follow-up
/Strategy Results
The backtest results are based on a starting capital of $13,700 (convenient amount for retail traders) with $1000 position size (7% of equity and enough for two shares of SPY) and pyramiding of 10 consecutive positions. Commissions of 0.03% and slippage of 2 ticks are used to ensure the results are representative of real world trading conditions. The backtest results are available to view at the bottom of this page.
Note that past results are not indicative of future results. The strategy is backtested in ideal conditions, it has no predictive abilities and results from live trading may not achieve the 2.235 profit factor shown here as each trader may introduce subjectivity or interfere with its performance or market conditions might change significantly. Since the strategy was designed for the US stock market, it has been backtested on the SPY (representative of the US stock market) ETF (for consistency in price across brokers).
/Tickers
This strategy should be used preferably with the SPY ticker which is the ETF for the S&P500. Alternatively, it could be used with VOO and several other S&P500 ETFs or a CFD ticker such as SPX500USD and several others which are based on the futures product. The strategy may not be suitable for futures tickers like ES according to TradingView.
/Access
The MBS is an Invite-Only script hence, traders interested in this strategy should contact me privately to request access.
Linear Cross Trading StrategyLinear Cross Trading Strategy
The Linear Cross trading strategy is a technical analysis strategy that uses linear regression to predict the future price of a stock. The strategy is based on the following principles:
The price of a stock tends to follow a linear trend over time.
The slope of the linear trend can be used to predict the future price of the stock.
The strategy enters a long position when the predicted price crosses above the current price, and exits the position when the predicted price crosses below the current price.
The Linear Cross trading strategy is implemented in the TradingView Pine script below. The script first calculates the linear regression of the stock price over a specified period of time. The script then plots the predicted price and the current price on the chart. The script also defines two signals:
Long signal: The long signal is triggered when the predicted price crosses above the current price.
Short signal: The short signal is triggered when the predicted price crosses below the current price.
The script enters a long position when the long signal is triggered and exits the position when the short signal is triggered.
Here is a more detailed explanation of the steps involved in the Linear Cross trading strategy:
Calculate the linear regression of the stock price over a specified period of time.
Plot the predicted price and the current price on the chart.
Define two signals: the long signal and the short signal.
Enter a long position when the long signal is triggered.
Exit the long position when the short signal is triggered.
The Linear Cross trading strategy is a simple and effective way to trade stocks. However, it is important to note that no trading strategy is guaranteed to be profitable. It is always important to do your own research and backtest the strategy before using it to trade real money.
Here are some additional things to keep in mind when using the Linear Cross trading strategy:
The length of the linear regression period is a key parameter that affects the performance of the strategy. A longer period will smooth out the noise in the price data, but it will also make the strategy less responsive to changes in the price.
The strategy is more likely to generate profitable trades when the stock price is trending. However, the strategy can also generate profitable trades in ranging markets.
The strategy is not immune to losses. It is important to use risk management techniques to protect your capital when using the strategy.
I hope this blog post helps you understand the Linear Cross trading strategy better. Booost and share with your friend, if you like.
Financial Ratios Fundamental StrategyWhat are financial ratios?
Financial ratios are basic calculations using quantitative data from a company’s financial statements. They are used to get insights and important information on the company’s performance, profitability, and financial health.
Common financial ratios come from a company’s balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement.
Businesses use financial ratios to determine liquidity, debt concentration, growth, profitability, and market value.
The common financial ratios every business should track are
1) liquidity ratios
2) leverage ratios
3)efficiency ratio
4) profitability ratios
5) market value ratios.
Initially I had a big list of 20 different ratios for testing, but in the end I decided to stick for the strategy with these ones :
Current ratio: Current Assets / Current Liabilities
The current ratio measures how a business’s current assets, such as cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and inventories, are used to settle current liabilities such as accounts payable.
Interest coverage ratio: EBIT / Interest expenses
Companies generally pay interest on corporate debt. The interest coverage ratio shows if a company’s revenue after operating expenses can cover interest liabilities.
Payables turnover ratio: Cost of Goods sold (or net credit purchases) / Average Accounts Payable
The payables turnover ratio calculates how quickly a business pays its suppliers and creditors.
Gross margin: Gross profit / Net sales
The gross margin ratio measures how much profit a business makes after the cost of goods and services compared to net sales.
With this data, I have created the long and long exit strategy:
For long, if any of the 4 listed ratios,such as current ratio or interest coverage ratio or payable turn ratio or gross margin ratio is ascending after a quarter, its a potential long entry.
For example in january the gross margin ratio is at 10% and in april is at 15%, this is an increase from a quarter to another, so it will get a long entry trigger.
The same could happen if any of the 4 listed ratios follow the ascending condition since they are all treated equally as important
For exit, if any of the 4 listed ratios are descending after a quarter, such as current ratio or interest coverage ratio or payable turn ratio or gross margin ratio is descending after a quarter, its a potential long exit.
For example in april we entered a long trade, and in july data from gross margin comes as 12% .
In this case it fell down from 15% to 12%, triggering an exit for our trade.
However there is a special case with this strategy, in order to make it more re active and make use of the compound effect:
So lets say on july 1 when the data came in, the gross margin data came descending (indicating an exit for the long trade), however at the same the interest coverage ratio came as positive, or any of the other 3 left ratios left . In that case the next day after the trade closed, it will enter a new long position and wait again until a new quarter data for the financial is being published.
Regarding the guidelines of tradingview, they recommend to have more than 100 trades.
With this type of strategy, using Daily timeframe and data from financials coming each quarter(4 times a year), we only have the financial data available since 2016, so that makes 28 quarters of data, making a maximum potential of 28 trades.
This can however be "bypassed" to check the integrity of the strategy and its edge, by taking for example multiple stocks and test them in a row, for example, appl, msft, goog, brk and so on, and you can see the correlation between them all.
At the same time I have to say that this strategy is more as an educational one since it miss a risk management and other additional filters to make it more adapted for real live trading, and instead serves as a guiding tool for those that want to make use of fundamentals in their trades

[tradinghook] - Renko Trend Reversal Strategy V2Title: Renko Trend Reversal Strategy
Short Title: - Renko TRS
> Special thanks to for manually calculating `renkoClose` and `renkoOpen` values in order to remove the infamous repaint issue
Description:
The Renko Trend Reversal Strategy ( - Renko TRS) is a powerful and original trading approach designed to identify trend reversals in financial markets using Renko charts. Renko charts differ from traditional time-based charts, as they focus solely on price movements and ignore time, resulting in a clearer representation of market trends. This strategy leverages Renko charts in conjunction with the Average True Range (ATR) to capture trend reversals with high precision and effectiveness.
Key Concepts:
Renko Charts: Renko charts are unique chart types that only plot price movements beyond a predefined brick size, ignoring time and noise. By doing so, they provide a more straightforward depiction of market trends, eliminating insignificant price fluctuations and making it easier to spot trend reversals.
Average True Range (ATR): The strategy utilizes the ATR indicator, which measures market volatility and provides valuable insights into potential price movements. By setting the brick size of the Renko chart based on the ATR, the strategy adapts to changing market conditions, ensuring optimal performance across various instruments and timeframes.
How it Works:
The Renko Trend Reversal Strategy is designed to identify trend reversal points and generate buy or sell signals based on the following principles:
Renko Brick Generation: The strategy calculates the ATR over a user-defined period (ATR Length) and utilizes this value to determine the size of Renko bricks. Larger ATR values result in bigger bricks, capturing higher market volatility, while smaller ATR values create smaller bricks for calmer market conditions.
Buy and Sell Signals: The strategy generates buy signals when the Renko chart's open price crosses below the close price, indicating a potential bullish trend reversal. Conversely, sell signals are generated when the open price crosses above the close price, suggesting a bearish trend reversal. These signals help traders identify potential entry points to capitalize on market movements.
Stop Loss and Take Profit Management: To manage risk and protect profits, the strategy incorporates dynamic stop-loss and take-profit levels. The stop-loss level is calculated as a percentage of the Renko open price, ensuring a fixed risk amount for each trade. Similarly, the take-profit level is set as a percentage of the Renko open price to secure potential gains.
How to Use:
Inputs: Before using the strategy, traders can customize several parameters to suit their trading preferences. These inputs include the ATR Length, Stop Loss Percentage, Take Profit Percentage, Start Date, and End Date. Adjusting these settings allows users to optimize the strategy for different market conditions and risk tolerances.
Chart Setup: Apply the - Renko TRS script to your desired financial instrument and timeframe on TradingView. The Renko chart will dynamically adjust its brick size based on the ATR Length parameter.
Buy and Sell Signals: The strategy will generate green "Buy" labels below bullish reversal points and red "Sell" labels above bearish reversal points on the Renko chart. These labels indicate potential entry points for long and short trades, respectively.
Risk Management: The strategy automatically calculates stop-loss and take-profit levels based on the user-defined percentages. Traders can ensure proper risk management by using these levels to protect their capital and secure profits.
Backtesting and Optimization: Before implementing the strategy live, traders are encouraged to backtest it on historical data to assess its performance across various market conditions. Adjust the input parameters through optimization to find the most suitable settings for specific instruments and timeframes.
Conclusion:
The - Renko Trend Reversal Strategy is a unique and versatile tool for traders looking to identify trend reversals with greater accuracy. By combining Renko charts and the Average True Range (ATR) indicator, this strategy adapts to market dynamics and provides clear entry and exit signals. Traders can harness the power of Renko charts while effectively managing risk through stop-loss and take-profit levels. Before using the strategy in live trading, backtesting and optimization will help traders fine-tune the parameters for optimal performance. Start exploring trend reversals with the - Renko TRS and take your trading to the next level.
