Best strategy for TradingView (fake)Hello everyone! I want to show you this strategy so you don't fall for the tricks of scammers. On TradingView, you can write an algorithm (probably more than one) that will show any profit you want: from 1% to 100,000% in one year (maybe more)! This can be done, for example, using the built-in linebreak () function and several conditions for opening long and short.
I am sure that sometimes scammers show up on TradingView showing their incredible strategies. Will a smart person sell a profitable quick strategy? When a lot of people start using the quick strategy, it stops working. Therefore, no smart person would sell you a quick strategy. It is acceptable to sell slow strategies: several transactions per month - this does not greatly affect the market.
So, don't fall for the tricks of scammers, write quick strategies yourself.
About this strategy, I can say that the linebreak () function does not work correctly in it. Accordingly, the lines are not drawn correctly on the chart. They are drawn in such a way as to show the maximum profit. I watched this algorithm on a 1m timeframe - no lines are drawn in real time. This is a fake!

Buy The Dips - MA200 OptimisedThe strategy combines a contrarian approach (buying the dips) with a trend-following logic (only when the price is above the MA200)
The strategy seeks to find the best times when buying the dips on the asset should result to be more profitable.
The price above a long-term moving average indicates momentum that increases the possibility of profiting from buying the asset on short-term weakness.
Price Action and 3 EMAs Momentum plus Sessions FilterThis indicator plots on the chart the parameters and signals of the Price Action and 3 EMAs Momentum plus Sessions Filter Algorithmic Strategy. The strategy trades based on time-series (absolute) and relative momentum of price close, highs, lows and 3 EMAs.
I am still learning PS and therefore I have only been able to write the indicator up to the Signal generation. I plan to expand the indicator to Entry Signals as well as the full Strategy.
The strategy works best on EURUSD in the 15 minutes TF during London and New York sessions with 1 to 1 TP and SL of 30 pips with lots resulting in 3% risk of the account per trade. I have already written the full strategy in another language and platform and back tested it for ten years and it was profitable for 7 of the 10 years with average profit of 15% p.a which can be easily increased by increasing risk per trade. I have been trading it live in that platform for over two years and it is profitable.
Contributions from experienced PS coders in completing the Indicator as well as writing the Strategy and back testing it on Trading View will be appreciated.
STRATEGY AND INDICATOR PARAMETERS
Three periods of 12, 48 and 96 in the 15 min TF which are equivalent to 3, 12 and 24 hours i.e (15 min * period / 60 min) are the foundational inputs for all the parameters of the PA & 3 EMAs Momentum + SF Algo Strategy and its Indicator.
3 EMAs momentum parameters and conditions
• FastEMA = ema of 12 periods
• MedEMA = ema of 48 periods
• SlowEMA = ema of 96 periods
• All the EMAs analyse price close for up to 96 (15 min periods) equivalent to 24 hours
• There’s Upward EMA momentum if price close > FastEMA and FastEMA > MedEMA and MedEMA > SlowEMA
• There’s Downward EMA momentum if price close < FastEMA and FastEMA < MedEMA and MedEMA < SlowEMA
PA momentum parameters and conditions
• HH = Highest High of 48 periods from 1st closed bar before current bar
• LL = Lowest Low of 48 periods from 1st closed bar from current bar
• Previous HH = Highest High of 84 periods from 12th closed bar before current bar
• Previous LL = Lowest Low of 84 periods from 12th closed bar before current bar
• All the HH & LL and prevHH & prevLL are within the 96 periods from the 1st closed bar before current bar and therefore indicative of momentum during the past 24 hours
• There’s Upward PA momentum if price close > HH and HH > prevHH and LL > prevLL
• There’s Downward PA momentum if price close < LL and LL < prevLL and HH < prevHH
Signal conditions and Status (BuySignal, SellSignal or Neutral)
• The strategy generates Buy or Sell Signals if both 3 EMAs and PA momentum conditions are met for each direction and these occur during the London and New York sessions
• BuySignal if price close > FastEMA and FastEMA > MedEMA and MedEMA > SlowEMA and price close > HH and HH > prevHH and LL > prevLL and timeinrange (LDN&NY) else Neutral
• SellSignal if price close < FastEMA and FastEMA < MedEMA and MedEMA < SlowEMA and price close < LL and LL < prevLL and HH < prevHH and timeinrange (LDN&NY) else Neutral
Entry conditions and Status (EnterBuy, EnterSell or Neutral)(NOT CODED YET)
• ENTRY IS NOT AT THE SIGNAL BAR but at the current bar tick price retracement to FastEMA after the signal
• EnterBuy if current bar tick price <= FastEMA and current bar tick price > prevHH at the time of the Buy Signal
• EnterSell if current bar tick price >= FastEMA and current bar tick price > prevLL at the time of the Sell Signal
QuantCat Mom Finder Strategy (1H)QuantCat Momentum Finder Strategy
This strategy is designed to be used on the 1 hour time frame, on all x/btc pairs.
The beautiful thing is it plots the take profit, and stoploss for you for each entry- where I would say use the stoploss for sure and feel with water with how the price action is looking when in profit.
In this strategy, I actually implemented my own trading style into building the strategy. Having to replicate my own trading strategy into an algorithm, I can't make it exactly perfect to how I would trade, but what I can do is try and program the parameters that give it the absolute best chance of making a big move with a small drawdown- which replicates part of my momentum trading style. Here I am using RSI, MACD, EMA and trend filtering values to find moments where there has been a momentum change to play the rest of the move. It only picks the best entries.
There is always a 3-4 R/R move on average with with these trades, meaning 1 in 4 only need to hit to be a break even trader- where most of these strategies have about 35% hit rate.
The stoploss is so crucial to minimise any damage from huge unexpected candles, the strategies can just be used for entries as well, you don't have to stick to the exact formula- of the long and short system, but this by itself is profitable.
The system nets positive results on
-ETH/BTC
-LTC/BTC
-XRP/BTC
-ADA/BTC
-NEO/BTC etc.
We also have a free 15M strategy available too.

Buy The Dip - Does It Work?Buying the dip has become a meme in crypto, but does it actually work?
Using this script you can find out.
The dip is defined here as the average true range multiplied by a number of your choosing (dipness input) and subtracted from the low.
When price crosses under the dip level, a long is initiated. The long is then closed using a timestop (default value 20 bars), no fancy exits here.
A general rule for buying the dip should be to be more passive in a bull market and aggressive in a bear market.
Same goes for all counter trend trading.
Heres a few other examples of dip buying statistics using the H4 timeframe:
50% profitable, 1.692 Profit Factor
BINANCE:PIVXBTC
56.52% profitable, 1.254 Profit Factor
BINANCE:KMDBTC
27.27% Profitable, 0.257 Profit Factor... yikes!
BINANCE:BTSBTC
73.33% Profitable, 13.627 Profit Factor... o.O

Colored Klinger Volume Oscillator (CKVO)This is a color enhanced version of Klinger Volume Oscillator. I specially designed this to get maximum profit from highly volatile coins. This indicator is based on volume.
xTrigger (the line) shows if trend is bullish or bearish. It is the average of the area. You can clearly see the trend.
xKVO (the area) shows how buy and sell orders change. It rises while buys are increasing against sells, decreases while sells are increasing against buys.
The color or the area provides buy and sell signals. Green: buy. Red: sell. Gray: Undecided.
Of course there are false signals. You should use other indicators to confirm them.
I like to use RSI and Bollinger Bands along with it to eliminate false signals. Also check for double bottom and top, etc.
Its wise to check the general direction of coin using a bigger time frame using Heikin Aishi. For example 1W Heikin Ashi if you are trading on 1D.
In addition to buy signals the most important indication is divergence with the price. Before a trend change 2 kinds of divergences happen
- Trend line moves reverse to the price line
- Are a tops moves revers to the price tops. For example while there is a higher price top, there is a lower area top. Then its time to escape.
Motivation
It is common to suffer from failures while trading highly profitable but volatile coins like NULLS, REP, DLT, LRC, MFT, HOT, OAX, KEY, etc.
- Traders sell too early to ensure a profit. Sell at 10% and it goes 200%
- Traders buy too early. Traders buy and it drops yet another 50%
- Wrong patience. The trader keeps the faith and waits for days for the glorious days. And nothing happens.
I believe with this indicator I am able to solve those problems most of the time.

XPloRR MA-Buy ATR-Trailing-Stop Long Term Strategy Beating B&HXPloRR MA-Buy ATR-MA-Trailing-Stop Strategy
Long term MA Trailing Stop strategy to beat Buy&Hold strategy
None of the strategies that I tested can beat the long term Buy&Hold strategy. That's the reason why I wrote this strategy.
Purpose: beat Buy&Hold strategy with around 10 trades. 100% capitalize sold trade into new trade.
My buy strategy is triggered by the EMA(blue) crossing over the SMA curve(orange).
My sell strategy is triggered by another EMA(lime) of the close value crossing the trailing stop(green) value.
The trailing stop value(green) is set to a multiple of the ATR(15) value.
ATR(15) is the SMA(15) value of the difference between high and low values.
Every stock has it's own "DNA", so first thing to do is find the right parameters to get the best strategy values voor EMA, SMA and Trailing Stop.
Then keep using these parameter for future buy/sell signals only for that particular stock.
Do the same for other stocks.
Here are the parameters:
Exponential MA: buy trigger when crossing over the SMA value (use values between 11-50)
Simple MA: buy trigger when EMA crosses over the SMA value (use values between 20 and 200)
Stop EMA: sell trigger when Stop EMA of close value crosses under the trailing stop value (use values between 8 and 16)
Trailing Stop #ATR: defines the trailing stop value as a multiple of the ATR(15) value
Example parameters for different stocks (Start capital: 1000, Order=100% of equity, Period 1/1/2005 to now):
BAR(Barco): EMA=11, SMA=82, StopEMA=12, Stop#ATR=9
Buy&HoldProfit: 45.82%, NetProfit: 294.7%, #Trades:8, %Profit:62.5%, ProfitFactor: 12.539
AAPL(Apple): EMA=12, SMA=45, StopEMA=12, Stop#ATR=6
Buy&HoldProfit: 2925.86%, NetProfit: 4035.92%, #Trades:10, %Profit:60%, ProfitFactor: 6.36
BEKB(Bekaert): EMA=12, SMA=42, StopEMA=12, Stop#ATR=7
Buy&HoldProfit: 81.11%, NetProfit: 521.37%, #Trades:10, %Profit:60%, ProfitFactor: 2.617
SOLB(Solvay): EMA=12, SMA=63, StopEMA=11, Stop#ATR=8
Buy&HoldProfit: 43.61%, NetProfit: 151.4%, #Trades:8, %Profit:75%, ProfitFactor: 3.794
PHIA(Philips): EMA=11, SMA=80, StopEMA=8, Stop#ATR=10
Buy&HoldProfit: 56.79%, NetProfit: 198.46%, #Trades:6, %Profit:83.33%, ProfitFactor: 23.07
I am very curious to see the parameters for your stocks and please make suggestions to improve this strategy.
True Price XRPArbitrage is the simultaneous purchase and sale of an asset to profit from a difference in the price. It is a trade that profits by exploiting the price differences of identical or similar financial instruments on different markets or in different forms.
In cryptocurrencies, arbitrage is difficult - if not impossible to profit from due to the large transaction costs of buying and sell on the different exchanges.
Some exchanges have fees in excess of 3%. This means that the difference in price between exchanges would have to be greater than the transaction cost in order to profit.
This also does not take into account the risk of price movement in the time it would take to transfer funds between exchanges, making the ability to profit from arbitrage impossible for the retail investor.
While "arbitrage" may be intuitively associated with "sabotage" to the uninformed, the occurence is not a result of greedy price manipulation. The difference in price between exchanges can be simply justified by the separation of market depth creating an indipendantly operating order book.
Essentially, this is an individually performing market with a unique price spread.
In order to determine the most visually accurate price, I have averaged the asking price of these six exchanges:
1. KRAKEN
2. BITSTAMP
3. BITFINEX
4. BITTREX
5. POLONIEX
6. BITSO
This plotted line can be overlayed on top of any XRP/USD price from any given exchange in order to view the variance from the average in real-time, or you can hide the underlying chart to view only the average of the six exchanges as demonstrated in the chart above.

MACDouble + RSI (rec. 15min-2hr intrv) Uses two sets of MACD plus an RSI to either long or short. All three indicators trigger buy/sell as one (ie it's not 'IF MACD1 OR MACD2 OR RSI > 1 = buy", its more like "IF 1 AND 2 AND RSI=buy", all 3 match required for trigger)
The MACD inputs should be tweaked depending on timeframe and what you are trading. If you are doing 1, 3, 5 min or real frequent trading then 21/44/20 and 32/66/29 or other high value MACDs should be considered. If you are doing longer intervals like 2, 3, 4hr then consider 9/19/9 and 21/44/20 for MACDs (experiment! I picked these example #s randomly).
Ideal usage for the MACD sets is to have MACD2 inputs at around 1.5x, 2x, or 3x MACD1's inputs.
Other settings to consider: try having fastlength1=macdlength1 and then (fastlength2 = macdlength2 - 2). Like 10/26/10 and 23/48/20. This seems to increase net profit since it is more likely to trigger before major price moves, but may decrease profitable trade %. Conversely, consider FL1=MCDL1 and FL2 = MCDL2 + (FL2 * 0.5). Example: 10/26/10 and 22/48/30 this can increase profitable trade %, though may cost some net profit.
Feel free to message me with suggestions or questions.
MACD, backtest 2015+ only, cut in half and doubledThis is only a slight modification to the existing "MACD Strategy" strategy plugin!
found the default MACD strategy to be lacking, although impressive for its simplicity. I added "year>2014" to the IF buy/sell conditions so it will only backtest from 2015 and beyond ** .
I also had a problem with the standard MACD trading late, per se. To that end I modified the inputs for fast/slow/signal to double. Example: my defaults are 10, 21, 10 so I put 20, 42, 20 in. This has the effect of making a 30min interval the same as 1 hour at 10,21,10. So if you want to backtest at 4hr, you would set your time interval to 2hr on the main chart. This is a handy way to make shorter time periods more useful even regardless of strategy/testing, since you can view 15min with alot less noise but a better response.
Used on BTCCNY OKcoin, with the chart set at 45 min (so really 90min in the strategy) this gave me a percent profitable of 42% and a profit factor of 1.998 on 189 trades.
Personally, I like to set the length/signals to 30,63,30. Meaning you need to triple the time, it allows for much better use of shorter time periods and the backtests are remarkably profitable. (i.e. 15min chart view = 45min on script, 30min= 1.5hr on script)
** If you want more specific time periods you need to try plugging in different bar values: replace "year" with "n" and "2014" with "5500". The bars are based on unix time I believe so you will need to play around with the number for n, with n being the numbers of bars.
Outsidebar vs Insidebar, Illusion Strategy (by ChartArt)WARNING: This strategy does not work! Please don't trade with this strategy
I'm sharing this strategy for the following three educational reasons:
1. You can easily find 100% strategies, but if they only seem to work 100% on one asset, they actually don't work at all. Therefore never backtest your strategy only on one asset, especially forward testing is useless, because it tends to repeat the old patterns. Your strategy has to work on as many different assets as possible.
2. The pyramiding of orders can have an impact on the strategy. In this case if you manually change the strategy settings by increasing it from 1 to 100 pyramiding orders changes the percent profitable on "UKOIL" monthly from 100% to 90% profitable. On other assets you can see very different results. Allowing much more pyramiding orders in this case results in opening orders where the background color highlights appear.
3. The Tradingview backtest beta version currently does not close the last open trade during the backtest. In this case going long on "UKOIL" near the top in 2011 as this strategy did would result in a big loss in 2015. But since the trade is still open and not canceled out by a new short order it still appears as if this strategy works 100% profitable. Which it doesn't.
ISM Indicator As a Strategy Here's a very easy code, plotting the ISM against the SPX. In this exercise, i wanted to see if one could use the ISM indicator only to generate buy/sell signal, and what would be the performance.
What is the ISM
The ISM Manufacturing Index monitors employment, production inventories, new orders and supplier deliveries.By monitoring the ISM Manufacturing Index, investors are able to better understand national economic conditions. When this index is increasing, investors can assume that the stock markets should increase because of higher corporate profits. The opposite can be thought of the bond markets, which may decrease as the ISM Manufacturing Index increases because of sensitivity to potential inflation.
Buy/Sell Signal
ISM above 50 usually good economic condition and vice versa when below 50 . For this code I used 48.50 as my buy/sell signal line.
Results
To test this on a longer time period, I use the SPX index instead of SPY. The results are surprisingly good. 76.92% profitability with 3.03 profit factor.
Conclusion
Investors could use the ISM with other indicators to determine better entry and exit point. I will see if combining the ISM with other custom indicators , could generate better result. Feel free to share your results here.
Cheers

MACD + SMA 200 Strategy (by ChartArt)Here is a combination of the classic MACD (moving average convergence divergence indicator) with the classic slow moving average SMA with period 200 together as a strategy.
This strategy goes long if the MACD histogram and the MACD momentum are both above zero and the fast MACD moving average is above the slow MACD moving average. As additional long filter the recent price has to be above the SMA 200. If the inverse logic is true, the strategy goes short. For the worst case there is a max intraday equity loss of 50% filter.

This strategy works in the backtest on the daily chart of Bitcoin, as well as on the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average daily charts. Current performance as of November 30, 2015 on the SPX500 CFD daily is percent profitable: 68% since the year 1970 with a profit factor of 6.4. Current performance as of November 30, 2015 on the DOWI index daily is percent profitable: 51% since the year 1915 with a profit factor of 10.8.
All trading involves high risk; past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under- or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown.
CamarillaStrategy -V1 - H4 and L4 breakout - exits addedExits added using trailing stops.
2.6 Profit Factor and 76% Profitable on SPY , 5M - I think it's a pretty good number for an automated strategy that uses Pivots. I don't think it's possible to add volume and day open price in relation to pivot levels -- that's what I do manually ..
Still trying to add EMA for exits.. it will increase profitability. You can play in pinescript with trailing stops entries..
Madrid Trend SqueezeThis study spots the points that are most profitable in the trend with a code color and shape. This also shows trend divergences and possible reversal or reentry points
Keeping the parameters simple, this study only needs one parameter, the length of the base moving average, which by default is set to 34.
There are seven colors used for the study
Green : Uptrend in general
Lime : Spots the current uptrend leg
Aqua : The maximum profitability of the leg in a long trade
The Squeeze happens when Green+Lime+Aqua are aligned (the larger the values the better)
Maroon : Downtrend in general
Red : Spots the current downtrend leg
Fuchsia: The maximum profitability of the leg in a short trade
The Squeeze happens when Maroon+Red+Fuchsia are aligned (the larger the values the better)
Yellow : The trend has come to a pause and it is either a reversal warning or a continuation. These are the entry, re-entry or closing position points.
When either the fuchsia or the aqua colors disappear or shrinks meaningfully it could mean a possible leg exhaustion that will have to be confirmed with the subsequent bars.
When the squeeze color appears without the intermediate color (fuchsia+yellow, fuchsia+maroon, aqua+yellow, aqua+green) it could mean this is just a shake off move, a pump/dump move, a buy the dip or a sell the peak move or a gap.
In the example there are three divergences spotted, the first one between march 2009 and september 2010 when the peaks in the indicator made a lower low, meanwhile the price made a higher high, this is a negative divergence and a trend reversal. On the second example, between april 2013 and July 2013 the indicator made a higher high meanwhile the price made a double bottom, this is a positive divergence and a reversal to the upside.

Daytrade Forex Scalper TwinPulse Auction Timer IndicatorWhat this indicator is
TwinPulse Auction Timer is a multi component execution aid designed for liquid markets. It looks for two families of opportunities
Breakouts that leave a compression area after a fresh sweep
Reversals that trigger after a sweep with strong wick polarity
It does not try to predict future prices. It measures present auction conditions with transparent rules and shows you when those conditions align. You get a simple table that says LONG SHORT or WAIT, optional session shading, clean entry and exit level visuals, and alerts you can wire to your workflow.
Why it is different
Most tools show a single signal. TwinPulse combines several independent signals into an Edge Score that you can tune. The components are
• Pulse. A signed measure of wick asymmetry with candle body direction
• Compression. Current true range compared with an average range
• Sweep timer. Bars elapsed since the most recent sweep of a prior high or low
• Bias. Direction of a higher timeframe candle
• Regime. Efficiency ratio and the relation of micro to macro volatility
• Location. Distance from the daily anchored VWAP
• Session. London and New York filter by time windows
Each component is visible in the inputs and in the table so you can understand why a suggestion appears. The script uses request.security() with lookahead off in all calls so it does not peek into the future. Shapes may move while a bar is open since price is still forming. They stop moving when the bar closes.
What you will see on the chart
• L and S shapes on entry bars
• An Exit shape at the price where a stop or the runner target would have been hit
• Four horizontal lines while a trade is active
Entry
Stop
TP1 at one R
TP2 at the runner target expressed in R
• Labels anchored to each line so you can instantly read Entry SL TP1 and TP2 with current values
• Optional shading during your session windows
• Optional daily VWAP line
The table in the top right shows
Action LONG SHORT IN LONG IN SHORT or WAIT
Session ON or OFF
Bias UP DOWN or FLAT
Pulse value
Compression value
Edge L percent and Edge S percent
How it works in detail
Pulse
For each bar the script measures up wick minus down wick divided by range and multiplies that by the sign of the candle body. The result is averaged with pulse_len. Positive numbers indicate aggressive buying. Negative numbers indicate aggressive selling. You control the minimum absolute value with pulse_thr.
Compression
Compression is the ratio of current range to an average range. You can choose the range basis. HL SMA uses simple high minus low smoothed by range_len. ATR uses classic True Range smoothed by atr_len. Values below comp_thr indicate a coil.
Sweeps and the timer
A sweep occurs when price trades beyond the highest high or lowest low seen in the previous sweep_len bars. A strict sweep requires a close back inside that prior range. The timer measures how many bars have elapsed since the last sweep. Breakout setups require the timer to exceed timer_thr.
Bias on a confirmation timeframe
A higher timeframe candle is read with confirm_tf. If close is above open bias is UP. If close is below open bias is DOWN. This keeps breakouts aligned with the prevailing drift.
Regime filters
Efficiency ratio measures the straight line change over the sum of absolute bar to bar changes over er_len. It rises in trendy conditions and falls in noise. Minimum efficiency is controlled by er_min.
Micro to macro volatility ratio compares a short lookback average range with a longer lookback average range using your chosen basis. For breakouts you usually want micro volatility to be near or above macro hence mvr_min. For reversals you often want micro volatility that is not overheated relative to macro hence mvr_max_rev.
VWAP distance gate
Daily anchored VWAP is rebuilt from the open of each session. The script computes the absolute distance from VWAP in units of your average range and requires that distance to exceed vwap_dist_thr when use_vwap_gate is true. This keeps entries away from the mean.
Edge Score
Each gate contributes a weight that you control. The script sums weights of the satisfied gates and divides by the sum of all weights to produce an Edge percent for long and an Edge percent for short. You can then require a minimum Edge percent using edge_min_pct. This turns the indicator into a step by step checklist that you can tune to your taste.
Using the indicator step by step
Choose markets and timeframes
The logic is designed for liquid instruments. Major currency pairs, index futures and cash index CFDs, and the most liquid crypto pairs work well. On intraday use one to fifteen minutes for signals and fifteen to sixty minutes for confirmation. On swing use one hour to one day for signals and one day for confirmation.
Decide on entry mode
Breakouts require a compression area and a sweep timer. Reversals require a strict sweep and a strong pulse. If you are unsure leave the default which allows both.
Pick a range basis
For FX and crypto HL SMA is often stable. For indices and single name equities with gaps ATR can adapt better. If results look too reactive increase the window. If results are too slow reduce it.
Tune regime filters
If you trade trend continuation raise er_min and mvr_min. If you trade counter rotation lower them and rely on the reversal path with the strict sweep condition.
Set the VWAP gate
Enabling it helps you avoid entries at the mean. Push the threshold higher on range bound days. Reduce it in strong trend days.
Table driven decision
Watch Action and the Edge percents. If the script says WAIT you can read Pulse and Compression to see what is missing. Often the best trades appear when both Edge percents are well separated and your session switch is ON.
Use the visuals
When a suggestion triggers you will see entry stop and targets. You can mirror the levels in your own workflow or use alerts.
Consider bar close
Signals are computed in real time. For a strict process you can wait until the bar closes to reduce noise.
Inputs explained with quick guidance
Setup
Signal TF chooses where the logic is computed. Leave blank to use the chart.
Confirm TF sets the higher timeframe for bias.
Session filter restricts signals to the London and New York windows you specify.
Invert flips long and short. It is useful on inverse instruments.
Logic options
Entry mode allows Breakouts Reversals or Both.
Average range basis selects HL SMA or ATR.
ATR length is used when ATR is selected.
Pulse source can be Regular OHLC or Heikin Ashi. Heikin Ashi smooths noisy series, but the script still runs on regular bars and you should publish and use it on standard candles to respect the platform guidance.
Core numeric settings
Sweep lookback controls the size of the liquidity pool targeted by the sweep condition.
Pulse window smooths the wick polarity measure.
Average range window controls your base range when you use HL SMA.
Pulse threshold sets the minimum polarity required.
Compression threshold sets the maximum current range relative to average to consider the market coiled.
Expansion timer bars sets how much time has passed since the last sweep before you allow a breakout.
Regime filters
Efficiency ratio length and minimum value keep you out of aimless drift.
Micro and Macro range lengths feed the micro to macro ratio.
Minimum micro to macro for breakouts and maximum micro to macro for reversals steer the two entry families.
VWAP gate and distance threshold keep you away from the mean.
Levels and trade management visuals
Runner target in R sets TP2 as a multiple of initial risk.
Stop distance as average range multiple sets initial risk size for the visuals.
Move stop to entry after one R touch turns on break even logic once price has traveled one risk unit.
Trail buffer as R fraction uses the last sweep as an anchor and keeps a dynamic stop at a chosen fraction of R beyond it.
Cooldown after exit prevents immediate re entries.
Edge Score
Weights for pulse compression timer bias efficiency ratio micro to macro VWAP gate and session let you align the checklist with your style.
Minimum Edge percent to suggest applies a final filter to LONG or SHORT suggestions.
UI
Table and markers switch the compact dashboard and the shapes.
TP and SL lines and labels draw and name each level.
TP1 partial label percent is printed in the TP1 label for clarity.
Session shading helps with focus.
Daily VWAP line is optional.
Alerts
The script provides alerts for Long Short Exit and for Edge percent crossing the threshold on either side. Use them to drive notifications or to sync with webhooks and your broker integration. Alerts trigger in real time and will repaint during a bar. For conservative use trigger on bar close.

Limitations and honest warnings
No indicator is perfect. TwinPulse will mark attractive conditions that do not always lead to profitable trades. During economic releases or very thin liquidity the assumptions behind compression and sweeps may fail. In strong gap environments the HL SMA basis may lag while ATR may overreact. Heikin Ashi pulse can help in choppy markets but it will lag during sharp reversals. Session times use the exchange time of your chart. If you switch symbol or exchange verify the windows.
Edge percent is not a probability of profit. It is the fraction of satisfied gates with your chosen weights. Two traders can set different weights and see different Edge readings on the same bar. That is the design. The score is a guide that helps you act with discipline.
This indicator does not place orders or manage real risk. The lines and labels show a model entry a model stop and two model targets built from the average range at entry and from recent swing points. Use them as references and not as hard rules. Always test on historical data and demo first. Past results do not guarantee anything in the future.
Credits and originality
All code in this publication is original and written for this indicator. The concept of the efficiency ratio originates from Perry Kaufman. The use of a daily anchored volume weighted average price is a standard industry tool. The specific combination of pulse from wick polarity strict sweep timing compression and the tunable Edge Score is unique to this script at the time of publication. If you reuse parts of the open source code in your own work remember to credit the author and contribute meaningful improvements.
How to read the table at a glance
Action reflects your current state.
IN LONG or IN SHORT appears while a trade is active.
LONG or SHORT appears when conditions for entry are met and the Edge threshold is satisfied.
WAIT appears when at least one gate is missing.
Session shows ON during your chosen windows.
Bias shows the color of the confirmation candle.
Pulse is the smoothed polarity number.
Comp shows current range divided by the average range. Values below one mean compression.
Edge L percent and Edge S percent show the long and short checklists as percents.
Final thoughts
Markets move because orders accumulate at certain prices and at certain times. The indicator tries to measure two things that often matter at those turning points. One is the existence of a hidden imbalance revealed by wick polarity and by sweeps of prior extremes. The other is the presence of energy stored in a coil that can release in the direction of a drift. Neither force guarantees profit. Together they can improve your selection and your timing.
Use the defaults for a few days so you learn the personality of the signals. After that adjust one group at a time. Start with the session filter and the Edge threshold. Then tune compression and the timer. Finally adjust the regime filters. Keep notes. You will learn which weights matter for your market and timeframe. The result is a process you can apply with consistency.

LW Outside Day Strategy[SpeculationLab]This strategy is inspired by the “Outside Day” concept introduced by Larry Williams in Long-Term Secrets to Short-Term Trading, and has been extended with configurable risk management tools and realistic backtesting parameters.
Concept
The “Outside Day” is a classic price action pattern that reflects strong market rejection or continuation pressure.
An Outside Bar occurs when the current bar’s high exceeds the previous high and the low falls below the previous low.
A body-size filter ensures only significant candles are included.
Entry Logic
Buy setup: Price closes below the previous low (bullish rejection).
Sell setup: Price closes above the previous high (bearish rejection).
Only confirmed bars are used (no intrabar signals).
Stop-Loss Modes
Prev Low/High: Uses the previous swing point ± ATR-based buffer.
ATR: Dynamic stop based on Average True Range × multiplier.
Fixed Pips: User-defined fixed distance (for forex testing).
Take-Profit Modes
Prev High/Low (PHL): Exits near the opposite swing.
Risk-Reward (RR): Targets a user-defined multiple of the stop distance (default = 2 : 1).
Following Price Open (FPO): Exits on the next bar’s open if price opens in profit (used to test overnight price continuation).
Risk Management & Backtest Settings
Default risk per trade is set at 10% of account equity (user-adjustable).
Commission = 0.1% and slippage = 2 ticks are applied to simulate realistic conditions.
For reliable statistics, test on data that yields over 100 trades.
Suitable for daily and 4-hour timeframes across stocks, forex, and crypto markets.
Visual Elements
Green and red triangles show entry signals.
Stop-loss (red) and take-profit (green) reference lines are drawn for clarity.
Optional alerts notify when a valid setup forms.
Disclaimer
This script is for educational and research purposes only.
It does not constitute financial advice or guarantee profits.
Always backtest thoroughly and manage your own risk.
Enhancements over Classic Outside Bar Models
Adjustable stop and target logic with ATR and buffer multipliers.
“Following Price Open” exit logic for realistic day-end management.
Optimized to avoid repainting and bar-confirmation issues.
Built with realistic trading costs and position sizing.

Magracia Entry-Exit 5 Min Time frame//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// 🧭 Indicator Description
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// 📘 Overview:
// This indicator is a modified version of the LuxAlgo pattern logic designed to detect
// high-probability **RBD (Rally–Base–Drop)** and **DBR (Drop–Base–Rally)** reversal structures
// directly on the current candle. It automatically identifies potential BUY and SELL zones,
// plots corresponding trade signals, and dynamically calculates **Take Profit (TP)** and **Stop Loss (SL)** levels.
//
// The goal of this tool is to give clear, visually guided trade entries and exits that
// follow price structure and momentum changes without repainting historical data.
//
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// 🧩 How It Works:
// • **RBD (Rally–Base–Drop)** → Indicates a bearish reversal (SELL signal)
// • **DBR (Drop–Base–Rally)** → Indicates a bullish reversal (BUY signal)
// • Optional **RBR / DBD** continuation patterns can be toggled on for trend continuation setups.
// • When a signal is detected, the script automatically places:
// ▫ A BUY or SELL marker at the candle
// ▫ Dynamic TP (green dotted line) and SL (red dotted line) levels
// ▫ An EXIT marker when either TP or SL is reached
//
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// ⚙️ Inputs:
// • Enable or disable individual pattern types (RBD, RBR, DBD, DBR)
// • Toggle continuation patterns (RBR/DBD)
// • Customize Take Profit and Stop Loss percentages
// • Adjust rally/drop bar colors for easier pattern visualization
//
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// 🧠 Usage Tips:
// • Works best on volatile pairs and short–term timeframes (1m to 15m)
// • Can be combined with volume or trend filters for stronger confirmation
// • When used on higher timeframes (e.g., 4H+), increase TP/SL percentage range
//
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// ⚠️ Notes:
// • Signals are plotted **in real-time on the current candle** (not delayed).
// • This indicator is for visual and educational use only and does not guarantee profitability.
// • For optimal results, combine it with proper risk management and confirmation indicators.

## 💡 How It Works
### **Phase 1: Box Formation (9:15 AM - 9:45 AM)**
The indicator tracks the high and low prices during your specified time window to create a reference box representing the opening range.
### **Phase 2: Breakout Detection**
After the box is locked, the system monitors for:
- **Bullish Breakout**: Price closes above box high for confirmation bars
- **Bearish Breakout**: Price closes below box low for confirmation bars
### **Phase 3: Signal Generation**
When confirmation requirements are met:
- Entry signal is generated with clear visual label
- Target price is calculated (Entry ± Target Points)
- Position tracking activates
- Cooldown timer starts
### **Phase 4: Position Management**
During active trade:
- **Add-On Logic**: If price pulls back by specified distance but stays within favorable range, additional entry signal fires
- **Target Monitoring**: Continuously checks if price reaches TP level
- **Box Adjustment**: After TP hit, box automatically shifts to new range for next opportunity
### **Phase 5: Trade Exit & Reset**
On target hit:
- Position closes with TP marker
- Statistics update
- Box repositions for next setup
- Cooldown activates
- System ready for next signal

3/4-Bar GRG / RGR Pattern (Conditional 4th Candle)This indicator can be used to identify the Green-Red-Green or Red-Green-Red pattern.
It is a price action indicator where a price action which identifies the defeat of buyers and sellers.
If the buyers comprehensively defeat the sellers then the price moves up and if the sellers defeat the buyers then the price moves down.
In my trading experience this is what defines the price movement.
It is a 3 or 4 candle pattern, beyond that i.e, 5 or more candles could mean a very sideways market and unnecessary signal generation.
How does it work?
Upside/Green signal
Say candle 1 is Green, which means buyers stepped in, then candle 2 is Red or a Doji, that means sellers brought the price down. Then if candle 3 is forming to be Green and breaks the closing of the 1st candle and opening of the 2nd candle, then a green arrow will appear and that is the place where you want to take your trade.
Here the buyers defeated the sellers.
Sometimes candle 3 falls short but candle 4 breaks candle 1's closing and candle 2's opening price. We can enter on candle 4.
Important - We need to enter the trade as soon as the price moves above the candle 1 and 2's body and should not wait for the 3rd or 4th candle to close. Ignore wicks.
I have restricted it to 4 candles and that is all that is needed. More than that is a longer sideways market.
I call it the +-+ or GRG pattern.
Stop loss can be candle 2's mid for safe traders (that includes me) or candle 2's body low for risky traders.
Back testing suggests that body low will be useless and result in more points in loss because for the bigger move this point will not be touched, so why not get out faster.
Downside/Red signal
Say candle 1 is Red, which means sellers stepped in, then candle 2 is Green or a Doji, that means buyers took the price up. Then if candle 3 is forming to be Red and breaks the closing of the 1st candle and opening of the 2nd candle then a Red arrow will appear and that is the place where you want to take your trade.
Sometimes candle 3 falls short but candle 4 breaks candle 1's closing and candle 2's opening price. We can enter on candle 4.
We need to enter the trade as soon as the price moves below the candle 1 and 2's body and should not wait for the 3rd or 4th candle to close.
I have restricted it to 4 candles and that is all that is needed. More than that is a longer sideways market.
I call it the -+- or RGR pattern.
Stop loss can be candle 2's mid for safe traders ( that includes me) or candle 2's body high for risky traders.
Back testing suggests that body high will be useless and result in more points in loss because for the bigger move this point will not be touched, so why not get out faster.
Important Settings
You can enable or disable the 4th candle signal to avoid the noise, but at times I have noticed that the 4th candle gives a very strong signal or I can say that the strong signal falls on the 4th candle. This is mostly a coincidence.
You can also configure how many previous bars should the signal be generated for. 10 to 30 is good enough. To backtest increase it to 2000 or 5000 for example.
Rest are self explanatory.
Pointers
If after taking the trade, the next candle moves in your direction and closes strong bullish or bearish, then move SL to break even and after that you can trail it.
If a upside trade hits SL and immediately a down side trade signal is generated on the next candle then take it. Vice versa is true.
Trades need to be taken on previous 2 candle's body high or low combined and not the wicks.
The most losses a trader takes is on a sideways day and because in our strategy the stop loss is so small that even on a sideways day we'll get out with a little profit or worst break even.
Hold targets for longer targets and don't panic.
If last 3-4 days have been sideways then there is a good probability that day will be trending so we can hold our trade for longer targets. Target to hold the trade for whole day and not exit till the day closes.
In general avoid trading in the middle of the day for index and stocks. Divide the day into 3 parts and avoid the middle.
Use Support/Resistance, 10, 20, 50, 200 EMA/SMA, Gaps, Whole/Round numbers(very imp) for identifying targets.
Trail your SL.
For indexes I would use 5 min and 15 min timeframe.
For commodities and crypto we can use higher timeframe as well. Look for signals during volatile time durations and avoid trading the whole day. Signal usually gives good targets on those times.
If a GRG or RGR pattern appears on a daily timeframe then this is our time to go big.
Minimum Risk to Reward should be 1:2 and for longer targets can be 1:4 to 1:10.
Trade with small lot size. Money management will happen automatically.
With small lot size and correct Risk-Re ward we can be very profitable. Don't trade with big lot size.
Stay in the market for longer and collect points not money.
Very imp - Watch market and learn to generate a market view.
Very imp - Only 4 candles are needed in trading - strong bullish, strong bearish, hammer, inverse hammer and doji.
Go big on bearish days for option traders. Puts are better bought and Calls are better sold.
Cluster of green signals can lead to bigger move on the upside and vice versa for red signals.
Most of this is what I learned from successful traders (from the top 2%) only the indicator is mine.
