Most Power V5 Most Power V5
The MOST indicator is an indicator used as a Moving Stoploss. The MOST indicator also generates a buy signal in case the prices rise, unlike the traditional indicators that allow you to make stop losses.In the MOST POWER V5 indicator, stoploss generates its signals using moving averages such as 'SMA', 'EMA', 'WMA', 'VWMA', 'HMA', 'SMMA', 'DEMA' rather than just the current price. In this way, it aims to prevent false signals that may be produced by excessive price movements during the day.
MOST POWER Indicator follows the average by preserving the stop loss distance in the movement of the moving average in the same direction.
The second variable that creates the MOST POWER curve is the stop loss distance that gives power to MOST with the moving average used and the shift rate that provides the stop signal. In this version, this distance is prepared with 2 separate inputs for both buy and sell.You can set these values as "percentage for long trend" and "percentage for short trend" in the indicator input properties.
You can also enter your Take Profit-1, Take Profit-2-, Take Profit-3- and Stop Loss levels in the indicator input properties, especially if you are interested in algo trading or to take advantage of the wonderful alarm setup features of tradingview and get the chance to get maximum profit. (If you enter Take Profit-1, Take Profit-2-, Take Profit-3- and Stop Loss levels as 0. Only buy and sell labels will appear on the indicator.)
Also, activate the amplitude filter option from the indicator input settings to get less signal and filter our inputs.
In addition, the entry price, take profit1, take profit2, take profit3 values for the last transaction opened to make things easier are located in the upper right corner of your graph as a table.
Important note: No indicator guarantees investment. That's why the tests you will do before real trades are very important in this indicator. I wish you all successful trades.
i will show how works with examples
Example 1
If you enter Take Profit-1, Take Profit-2-, Take Profit-3- and Stop Loss levels greater than 0
Example 2
If you enter Take Profit-1, Take Profit-2-, Take Profit-3- and Stop Loss levels as 0 (u will see only buy - sell labels)
Example 3
if select Amplitude Filter is on . you will see less signal
how works Amplitude Filter whats logic ?
if Amplitude Filter is active the signal from mostpower will be combined with Amplitude Filter.
for example, if the amplitude value is 2, the highest price and the lowest price of the last 2 bars are calculated. then this amplitude value is calculated for sma with its source high and low. Based on these values, the trend is determined in the amplitude of the price movement.
Important note: No indicator guarantees investment. That's why the tests you will do before real trades are very important in this indicator. I wish you all successful trades.

Crypto Tipster v2---------------------
Crypto Tipster v2
Hello again! We're back with a drastically improved Crypto Tipster v2 Indicator using over a dozen all new algorithms based around Technical Analysis, Price Action, Momentum Swings and Reversal Detection.
We've taken our time with version 2 of Crypto Tipster, putting all our best practices to work and ensuring it performs superbly across numerous crypto markets and timeframes - we have focused our efforts towards the larger timeframes, 12H, 1D, 2D for example as we believe these to be the most consistent and predictable, and therefore the most profitable.
Trading on longer timeframes also reduces the overal cost of trading fee's as you'll be placing fewer trades over any given time period, whilst catching bigger swings and therefore earning a higher percentage per winning trade. Due to these bigger price swings you can de-leverage your trades too, making them inherintly safer and more controlled.
The final benefit to placing trades on longer timeframes is that you will not be tied down to your PC or laptop for hours on end waiting for a perfect entry or exit point, which increases the odds of placing bad/panic trades or even placing trades due to boredom! If you trade with Crypto Tipster v2 on a 1D timeframe, you will only ever have work to do once per day, at bar close; this is when trades are placed or exited, or stop losses/take profits are updated to new levels - easy!
Crypto Tipster v2 can help consistently catch tops and bottoms of trending markets whilst avoiding placing trades through choppy or ranging areas, this helps to not only maximise profits (what we're all after!) but also to minimise losses (equally important). We've tirelessly tested Crypto Tipster using literally thousands of variables across dozens of built-in algorithms over hundreds of trading pairs - lots of data to process!
The outcome is rather stunning and well worth checking out - we're rather proud of what we've achieved here, and we're pretty sure you're going to love it too!
---------------------
What's Included
- Chart Settings
The first section you'll come across, Chart Settings.
Here you'll find a few options regarding how your chosen market chart will look within TradingView and how Crypto Tipster will interact with this chart.
One of the most important Tick boxes is first on the list - "Show Backtest Results". This will change Crypto Tipster from displaying simple but easy-to-follow "Buy/Sell" labels into Strategy mode in which you can set up more complicated Stop Loss / Take profit settings as well as setting up Alerts for auto trading and other more complex functions (see How It Works for more info!
We've also included a "Trend Strength Bar Color" tick box which changes the color of the chart bars based on how strong Crypto Tipster is perceiving the current trend and in which direction.
- Trend Settings
"Trading Frequency" represents how often Crypto Tipster will be looking for a new trend / change in trend direction, and therefore how often it will be placing trades. By default this is set to "Normal" but can be changed to "Rapid" using the drop down menu.
"Entry Trend Strength" also determines how frequently trades are placed by selecting the strength of trend required before a trade is placed. The scale ranges from "1-5", with 1 being a low trend strength required, 5 being a very strong trend strength required.
Within the Trend Settings section you'll also find an "Avg Trend Strength over Bars" option. This allows you to average (mean) the current trend strength over a pre-determined amount (1-5) of previous chart bars - thus providing a potentially more consistent signal.
- Trade Settings
Trade Settings help Crypto Tipster determine what type of trades you're looking to place.
The overall "Trade Direction" will decide to either target only Long trades, only Short trades, or Both (default).
"Consecutive Trades in Same Direction" allows for pyramiding - whereby you can specify to allow for multiple trades of the same direction. Set to "1" as default allows for no extra pyramiding, max setting of "10".
- Trade Protection
Currently consisting of two functions, our Trade Protection section can help to achieve both the removal of false signals (whipsaws), and the extension of good trades without confusion during minor retracements.
"Chop Removal" can help to remove some whipsaw trades during ranging market conditions, therefore improving overal profitability by only targeting stronger trends. You have an option to choose from either "Weak" or "Strong" Chop Removal.
"Protection Filter" uses current trading criteria as defined by you, and uses it to check against a higher time frame than you're currently viewing. This can help to eliminate some bad trades at the expense of a potential lag on good trades.
- Stop Loss / Take Profit
Stop Losses should be a crucial aspect of everyone's trading system. They help prevent any trade from going too far in the wrong direction and limit losses.
Our "Stop Loss (%)" is quick and easy to set up, simply set the percentage offset from the entry price of trades and a fixed Stop Loss will be in place on all trades.
"Take Profit (%)" works in the same way as the Stop Loss mentioned above - simply set the percentage you'd like to exit a profitable trade at.
The "Trailing Stop (%)" is a little more complicated in that it will follow the trend of the trade a certain percentage away from the current market price - this is great for keeping yourself in a trade for as long as the trade is moving in the right direction.
- Extra Tools & Indicators
This is the section of Crypto Tipster that enables you to add some chart visuals to assist you with your preferred trading style.
"Potential Pivot Points" are not the same as actual pivot points - Potential pivot points will paint on the chart at bar close, giving you an immediate alert to potential tops/bottoms of market trends. You can choose to display only the strongest potential points, or include some of the weaker signals too.
"Actual Pivot Points" are inherintly more accurate than Potential pivot points, but do not paint on the chart until after a pre-determined amount of time has passed. These are great for placing stop losses/take profits or watching the market for breakouts or reversals.
"Support/Resistance Levels" plots up to 6 support and resistance horizontal lines based on recent price tops/bottoms. Use these to determine areas where price could rebound or break-through.
"Bollinger Band Breakout" - Bollinger bands are a tried and tested technical analysis tool, similar to pivot points and support/resistance lines, thee are another great tool to determine where price may retrace, consolidate or breakout.
- Ichimoku Cloud
Somewhat confusing and intimidating when you first come across this technical analysis indicator, the "Ichimoku Cloud" is one of our favorites. Assisting with the detection of Dynamic Support and Resistance levels, Momentum and Trend Direction all in one super indicator.
Although certain aspects of the Ichimoku Cloud are already present within Crypto Tipster v2 algorithms in order to offer you the best possible signals, we've also included a user-definable section of it's own so you can manually set up and use the cloud for your own trading needs, all cloud signals (and there are many) are available to set up as Alerts for your own needs or an Auto-Trading Bot.
- Custom Alerts for Any Signal
We've endeavoured to ensure that all signals, not just the Buy/Sell signals, are ready and available to create Alerts with; giving you the most opportunity to create a fully custom trading engine that suits your exact trading requirements.
This means you can set Alerts for any and all signals you can see on the chart when using Crypto Tipster v2, this includes Buy/Sell Signals, Trend Strength Signals, Choppy Market Signals, Stop Loss/Take Profit Signals, Pivot Points, S/R levels crossed above & below, Bollinger Band Breakout and several Ichimoku Cloud Signals.. the list goes on!
---------------------
We've tried to make Crypto Tipster as comprehensive and easy to understand as possible, we are however always in search of progression; we do really love to hear your feedback :)

Trendmaster - Crypto On-Chain Metric BundleWhat it is:
The ‘Trendmaster Crypto On-Chain Metric Bundle’ is truly a one-of-a-kind bundle. It provides a complete insight into the on-chain dynamics of the entire Crypto asset class, with a multitude of different included indicators providing unique information and data points to give users an edge regardless of ticker, timeframe, or trading style.
What it Does:
Allows you to switch between several different metrics in one place and see specific combined metrics and look at the metrics to take contrarian positions
How to Use it:
Use these metrics to see the on-chain actions in cryptocurrency and play the contrarian. For example, when people are flooding into stablecoins as the price goes down you can see that as a potential buy indicator.
All metrics can be viewed with a Dashboard allowing the user to see all of the information in 1 place.
List of On-Chain Metrics:
To begin with, we have the ‘Trendmaster On-Chain Rating’ – which is our all-in-one, complete on-chain overview metric that can give you an instant insight into the fundamental and underlying strength of any given Crypto asset. It collates the key factors provided by all other indicators within the bundle, weighing in and condensing all of that information into a simple -5 to 5 scale; with a -5 indicating a completely bearish outlook on the asset, and a +5 representing truly great upcoming upside potential. As this indicator is taking into account large amounts of data and statistics to provide an on-chain overview, this value is best taken into consideration on higher timeframes such as the 4hour or daily to provide fundamentally strong buy or sell swing trade opportunities. Extreme rating signals on this indicator are rare but always worth taking into serious consideration.
Secondly, we have the ‘Collated Open Interest Oscillator’ – which gives us a peek into the current outlook of the derivatives market across a wide array of Crypto futures on a number of different exchanges. This indicator provides data on a 0-100 scale, with 100 indicating a substantial and sustained increase in open derivative positions in relation to the underlying market volume. A score of 100 can tell us that a huge amount of traders are trying to position themselves with high leverage in anticipation of a big move, and can often be compared to periods of extreme greed from market participants. On the contrary, a value of 0 shows us that the derivative market is decreasing in volume and therefore open interest is decreasing, which can be likened to periods of extreme fear. This data is only provided at daily intervals, but as incredibly high or low values on this indicator can have an almost instant impact, this indicator is best utilized for medium-term trading and investment decisions.
The ‘Social Sentiment Oscillator' analyses bullish and bearish narratives in relation to a number of large Cryptocurrencies and the market in general, across multiple social media platforms. Rather than a traditional 0-100 ‘Fear & Greed’ index that many may be familiar with, this indicator tracks the changing in sentiment across platforms on a -100 to 100 scale. A score of -100 may not necessarily indicate immediate extreme fear in the market, but instead a huge shift from an incredibly bullish narrative to an incredibly bearish one. Similar to a score of 100, this does not necessarily indicate that the current outlook on social media platforms is currently positive, but rather that a substantial amount of people are altering their views and have become more bullish on a short-term basis. This data is only provided at daily intervals, so make sure to keep an eye on price and sentiment divergences for the best swing trade opportunities to play contrarian to the majority.
Following this is the ‘Miner Confidence Metric’, which provides a long-term overview of the current Crypto miner's outlook. This simple -10 to 10 scale gives us an easy-to-follow bearish to the bullish sentiment of miners. This indicator takes into account the current hash rate, looking at both how it historically compares as well as its rate of decrease/increase; as well as on-chain miner movements to verify their stance on either holding onto their Crypto earnings or preferring to move their coins to exchanges to sell and cover their running costs. Generally speaking, miners can face difficulties operating during times of large market drawdowns, and may be forced into offloading and selling physical and virtual resources to remain afloat – this is indicated by a -10 value at the extreme end, and has historically provided outsized returns for long-term investors accumulating at their demise. Contrary to this, a score of 10 can indicate that miners are not only bullish on the future of crypto, but are likely also expanding operations in anticipation of higher prices in the future. This data is only provided at daily intervals, but on longer-term timeframes provide some of the best long-term accumulation opportunities available to market participants.
Next is the ‘Collated On-Chain Volume’ indicator, which simply monitors a variety of Cryptocurrencies and their underlying on-chain transactional usage. When collating these volumetric data it can provide invaluable insight into the current actions taken by market buyers and sellers and often larger players who can have a big influence on price. Typically when we see large spikes in on-chain usage it indicates substantial levels of accumulation or distribution, which can be made more obvious by observing where we currently are in a market cycle. Large spikes after large and extended periods of drawdown can represent coins transferring from retail to larger players who are often referred to as ‘smart money’; and with large on-chain volume following a substantial bull cycle, this may show us larger players distributing coins to retail. Data can only be fetched at daily intervals, but watch for big spikes to try and position yourself alongside the big players.
We also have the ‘Holder in Profit %’ which as it sounds, is just giving us a percentile value of Crypto traders, investors, and holders who are currently in profit on their positions. Historically speaking, when a majority are at a loss – and buying ‘when there is blood in the streets has been a profitable venture. Considering cutting some of your positions when market exuberance is in full effect and a vast majority of participants are reaping in easy profits. As data is only obtained at daily intervals, using this as a longer-term gauge for where we may be in a cycle is where it is most insightful.
The ‘Long/Short Ratio Crossover’ analyses the current disparity between traders who have positioned themselves in a long position on derivatives markets in comparison to those betting on prices going down. This indicator provides another impressive insight into the fallacy of the herd mentality, and how aiming to be on the opposite side of the masses can often be a profitable venture. A value of 100 can show us that an overwhelming majority of traders are predicting a price increase and are trying to position themselves accordingly, whereas a value of -100 indicates almost all derivative traders are trying to bet on a sizeable market downturn. This metric can be useful for both long-term positions and shorter-term scalping methods of trading and investing, updating on a per-candle basis.
Along with this, the ‘Retail Stablecoin Demand’ looks into the current demand for a number of Crypto stablecoins, aiming to mimic an underlying value close to that of traditional fiat currencies like the US Dollar. This is calculated by analyzing the short to mid-term rush to these ‘safer’ assets by retail traders. Traditionally people will exit their positions in favor of stable assets when they are either currently or are expecting to experience losses. Conversely, when users foresee upcoming profits they are likely to transition into a more ‘risk-on’ thesis and exit their stablecoins for more speculative assets. A value of 100 represents a huge demand for stablecoins, whereas a value of -100 shows that there is currently a lack of interest. Another indication providing a chance to profitably play the contrarian, with figures constantly updating to provide the functionality to all regardless of your trading methodology or investment philosophy.
Lastly the ‘Whale Bubbles’, display overlaying circles of varying size and opacity to represent on-chain activity by larger market players who are transferring a portion of their substantial holding, usually to exchanges to sell. These bubbles are placed over price action to clearly see the point at which the transaction occurred. We can also lower the minimum requirement of what is defined as a ‘whale movement’ by increasing the sensitivity within the indicator settings and subsequently increasing signal frequency. When whales begin to sell in numbers, it may be worth considering doing the same yourself!
We hope you can find utility in all of these indicators, and that in unison they can take your trading and investment to the next level. A majority of these indicators within the bundle can be tweaked and optimized within the bundle to further fine-tune and cater to your preferred trading and investing thesis. Check out our other resources and let us know what you’d like to see next!
[Pt] TICK Supertrend Strategy, 5 minBackground:
It is well known that the indices such as SPY and QQQ follow/represent market sentiment. The TICK index literally represents the market sentiment as it compares the number of stocks that are rising and falling on the NYSE. By default, the TICK index is a short term indicator. Therefore it isn't reliable for swing trading or long term strategies. However, it is perfect for scalping.
Although TICK is well known, many does not know how to use it effectively. As part of the background mechanism of this script, I’ve divided TICK into 5 major zones based on the close of each candle: Overbought (neutral with bearish bias), Bullish, Neutral, Bearish, and Oversold (neutral with bullish bias). Along with the use of Heikin Ashi technique, RSI, moving averages and candle analysis, this strategy aims to provide accurate representation of market sentiment and profitable entry and exit points. *** At the time of publication, this strategy has proved to be consistently profitable. HOWEVER, this DOES NOT guarantee future profitability. So use at your own risk! ***
What is it showing?
This strategy is an intraday scalping strategy that uses TICK data to predict market directions for optimal entry and exit points. It is displayed similarly to the famous Supertrend indicator, which is one of the most common ATR based trailing stop indicators, so visually it is easy to read. This strategy is suitable for trading indices such as SPX , SPY , SPX500USD , QQQ , DJI and any other tickers that have high positive correlation with TICK.
Script is proprietary, but as mentioned it incorporates the following elements with additional candlestick analysis, pattern recognition, stop-loss and profit taking strategy:
- NYSE TICK data
- Heikin Ashi candle technique
- ATR
- RSI
- Moving Averages
Bullish trend is determined by a confluence of said indicators and analyses, and is displayed as a green line under the price action. The distance is defined by an adjustable value that is based on a percentage of the previous daily ATR value. When a long order is in play, that line also acts as the stop-loss level. Bearish trend is the opposite and is displayed in red, by default.
What's unique?
Detecting a ranging market structure and avoiding overtrading in a choppy market has always proven to be difficult, even for the most professional traders. This strategy has built-in “choppiness” and volatility filtering scripts that attempts to help reduce the number of false entries. These elements are what makes this strategy unique and different from other indictors mashup strategies.
In addition, this strategy takes previous trades into account and “learn” from past trades when determining the optimal stop-loss level to maximize profitability. This allows this strategy to better adapts to changing and evolving market conditions.

Customizable OCC Non Repainting Scalper Bot v7.0bThis strategy is intended to be used on an automated trading platform and should be run on a one minute chart for fastest confirmations and signal relay to crypto automation platform. The strategy has been modded to only go long at this time to focus on profitability for one direction. The open long and close long text fields allow you to use your own webhook message for this purpose.
I have spent quite a bit of time and I figured I would put it out to the community to share the work and also get some feedback.
Ok, so let me say that I have done absolutely everything I can to make the strategy not repaint while still maintaining it's profitability. It has been a challenge so I am publishing this to the community to help test this.
What I have observed: the strategy will not repaint in real time. That is, if you have the chart open and keep it open, the signals are the same as the ones that are sent out by the strategy. In certain cases, when I reload the chart- the signals might be off from what was sent. In some ways, that is repainting, but it is repainting based on losing the real time data and recalculating from a different set of bars- since I am running it on a one minute chart then the start becomes different when you refresh.
To address repainting while keeping the strategy calculating as quickly as possibly I have altered the logic in the following ways:
I have made an assumption which might not work for everyone- at the first tick of the next bar, you can almost safefly assume in crypto that if you are looking at the previous bar for information, the open of the current bar was the close of the previous bar. This for the most part holds true in crypto with good liquidity. If you are trading a pair that jumps around due to low volume- this might not be the strategy to use. I might publish a different version with a different logic.
I have altered the security repaint to use isbarconfirmed, so at the very end of the bar (as soon as the bar is confirmed), we recalculate to the higher time frames. So as soon as the data is available, it is at that point that we can then safely calculate higher time frames. This is unique and experimental, but seems to do well at creating good signals for entry.
I have employed my own intervals by utilizing the resolution as an integer (used by the previous authors)- but in this case, I use the interval to take a snapshot of the higher time frame. With open close cross, the different moving averages can cause the repainting as they change to show the exact point of the cross. The interval feature I created minimizes this by utilizing the previous bar info until the interval is closed and then we recalculate the variants. You can use the interval offset feature to denote which minute is the one that starts and ends the interval. So for instance, Trading View uses minue 1 and minute 31 for 30 minute intervals. If you offset your 30 minute interval would start on minute 16 and do its calculations based on the last 30 minutes,
As with most of my scripts, I have started using filters and a "show data" feature that will give you the ability to see the values of indicators that you cannot plot in the overlay. This allows you to figure out how to filter losing trades or market conditions.
I have also added a trailing stop and created a fixed stop loss as seems to perform better than the original occ strategy. The original one seemed to repaint enough that it would close too quickly and not give the posiition enough time to become profitable. In certain cases where there was a large move, it would perform well, but for the most part the trades would not close profitably even though the backtest said that it did - probably due to the delay in execution and pinescript not having a confirmation on what the actual position price was.
This is still in beta mode, so please forward test first and use at your own risk.
If you spot repaint issues, please send me a message and try to explain the situation.
[Fedra Algotrading Strategy]English / Spanish
Algotrading strategy optimized for cryptocurrencies. Originally conceived to trade automatically through bots (that's how I use it), it also works to get signals and trade manually in any exchange.
It works in spot. It does not repaint. Works in 15M, 30M, 1H and 4H (I prefer short periods).
Features:
Buy the dip:
Attempts to buy on the dip, finding entries when the price makes abrupt dips that break the linear regression of the last periods (default 40).
Trailing Take Profit:
Once the percentage established for the take profit is reached, the strategy follows the price if it is rising until it stops rising and only then makes the sale.
Trend Detection:
Determines whether the market is in an uptrend or downtrend by crossing 2 SMAs. This affects the performance of the strategy. This works as a filter to avoid making entries in a downtrend.
Trailing Break Even:
If the market enters a downtrend with an open trade, a Trailing Break Even is triggered, (configurable, default 1.5%). The intention is to close the trade as soon as possible, but without losses. The value of 1.5% is intended to cover commission costs and a possible spread. Like the Take Profit, the Trailing Break Even follows the price as it rises until it stops doing so before closing the trade.
How to use this strategy?
In the properties of the strategy you assign the amount you will trade (default 100), the percentage of the total capital you will use in each trade (default 100%) and the value of the commissions (default 1%).
Select the pair to trade. The strategy is optimized for trading pairs with stable coins. The strategy benefits from volatility so choosing among currencies with a market cap between 50M and 10,000M gives better profits than with top 10 currencies.
In the strategy options, disable the stoploss by setting it to 100% to be able to concentrate on the Take Profit.
With an eye on the "Net Profit" of the strategy, start with the take profit at 3% (for lower percentages there is the Break Even) and increase it 1 by 1 until determining which is the best for our pair (the one that gives us a better net profit).
Once the Take Profit is established, enable the StopLoss starting from 1 and choosing the best parameter looking for the balance that makes us feel comfortable between the Net Profit and the total of closed operations.
Test this same with candles of different periods (I trade with 15M and 30M candles).
Tip:
To trade automatically using a bot, I recommend using pairs in which the strategy has a profitability higher than 80%.
To counteract possible overfitting, when the strategy has given me a 30% profit, I recalculate the optimal parameters.
If you are interested in auromatizing it to trade on Binance, Binance US, AAX, Kucoin, Liquid, Okex, Bitfinex, Bittrex, Coinbase Pro, Gemini, HitBTC, Kraken or Poloniex, I recommend using Quadency bots, they are free and the ones I use.
This will eventually be a paid script, but you can request free access for now.
I am still working on optimizations, improvements, and more features.
DCA version coming soon.

*****************************************************SPANISH*****************************************
Estrategia de Algotrading optimizada para criptomonedas. Originalmente concebida para operar de manera automática mediante bots (así la utilizo yo), funciona también para obtener señales y operar manualmente en cualquier exchange.
Funciona en spot. No repinta. Funciona en 15M, 30M, 1H y 4H (Yo prefiero periodos cortos)
Características:
Buy the dip:
Intenta comprar en el dip, encontrando entradas cuando el precio hace bajadas abruptas que rompen la regresión lineal de los últimos periodos (por defecto 40)
Trailing Take Profit:
Una vez alcanzado el porcentaje establecido para el take profit, la estrategia acompaña al precio si está en ascenso hasta que deja de subir y recién ahí realiza la venta.
Detección de Trend:
Determina si el mercado tiene una tendencia alcista o bajista mediante el cruce de 2 SMAs. Esto afecta el funcionamiento de la estrategia. Esto funciona como filtro para evitar realizar entradas en una tendencia bajista.
Trailing Break Even:
Si el mercado entra en tendencia bajista con una operación abierta, se activa un Trailing Break Even, (configurable, por defecto 1.5%). La intención es cerrar la operación lo antes posible, pero sin pérdidas. El valor de 1.5% está pensado para cubrir los costos de comisiones y un posible spread. Al igual que el Take Profit, El Trailing Break Even acompaña al precio mientras sube hasta que deja de hacerlo antes de cerrar la operación.
Cómo utilizar esta estrategia?
En las propiedades de la estrategia se le asigna el monto con el que va a operar (por defecto 100), el porcentaje del total de capital que utilizará en cada operación (por defecto 100%) y el valor de las comisiones (por defecto 1%)
Seleccionar el par a operar. La estrategia está optimizada para operar en pares con stablecoins. La estrategia se beneficia con la volatilidad por lo que elegir entre las monedas con un market cap de entre 50M y 10.000M da mejores beneficios que con monedas del top 10
En las opciones de la estrategia, deshabilitar el stoploss configurándolo en 100% para poder concentrarnos en el Take Profit.
Con un ojo en el “Beneficio Neto” de la estrategia, comenzar con el take profit en 3% (para porcentajes menores está el Break Even) e ir aumentándolo de 1 en 1 hasta determinar cuál es el mejor para nuestro par (el que nos proporciona un major beneficio neto).
Establecido el Take Profit, habilitar el StopLoss partiendo de 1 y eligiendo el mejor parámetro buscando el equilibrio que nos haga sentir cómodos entre el Beneficio Neto y el total de operaciones cerradas.
Probar esto mismo con velas de diferentes periodos (Yo opero con velas de 15M y 30M)
Consejo:
Para operar de manera automática mediante un bot, recomiendo utilizar pares en los que la estrategia tenga una rentabilidad superior al 80%
Para contrarestar posible overfiting, cuando la estrategia me ha dado un 30% de profit, vuelvo a calcular los parámetros óptimos.
Si te interesa auromatizarla para operar en Binance, Binance US, AAX, Kucoin, Liquid, Okex, Bitfinex, Bittrex, Coinbase Pro, Gemini, HitBTC, Kraken o Poloniex, recomiendo usar los bots de Quadency, son gratiutos y los que yo utilizo.

[Joy] Aladdin Long Trading Strategy 1.0.0 AlphaAladdin's Long trading strategy is to test out Aladdin for long trades only
This strategy is mainly used to test whether Aladdin is suitable for a coin/stocks/futures or for any trading. The profitability, average drawdown, average profits, etc are used by me to decide whether to use it for trading.
What is Aladdin and what does it do?
Using the volume and gradual flow of non-interrupted data (wicks and body of the candles), it tries to detect the macro condition of the market so that one may know in which direction the market is flowing.
* Bearish / Sell sign: On the candle's close, I open a short position
* Bullish sign: On the candle's close, I open a long position
* I take at least 50% profit when the indicator indicates to do so. One can configure that value as desired from the configuration depending on one's risk/money management. I might even convert some portion of the position into stable coins.
FAQ
Q: Does it use some EMA /MA/etc.? Does it use any indicator with tweaked settings?
Answer: No.
Q: What does it mostly depend on?
Answer: Volume and gradual flow of non-interrupted data. The logic depends purely on volume , price bars and the wicks.
Q: Does it work with all coins, stocks, futures, instruments?
Answer: I prefer to use the exchange with the best possible data. Then backtest out to find the best possible timeframe, stop loss and target all derived from this script data.
Q: Can you make it free or make it open source?
Answer: There is no free lunch in this world. I will never reveal or share the source code!
Q: Do you provide ongoing support for the indicator?
Answer: Yes, as long as I can, I will continue updating the indicator
Q: Are the bullish /buy & the bearish/sell markers automatic?
Answer: I have no control over the markers. It is driven purely by logic from the script.
Q: Is this financial advice?
Answer: This is not financial advice. I do not guarantee any profit or loss. I am not responsible for any of your losses or profits. My indicators do not assure profit or loss. It also does not auto-open or auto-close a trade.

MKAST V2 (monthly)PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE POST BEFORE PURCHASING & USING THE MKAST Algorithm. Saves you and me some time in emails and messages. :)
This is the NEW MONTHLY ACCESS Version of the MKAST
The MKAST Buy Sell Algorithm is a very specific strategy, cut down to its roots and made perfect for the volatile crypto market.
Many Algorithms focus only on one aspect, one side, one specific rule.
As you know, this is not how life, the market or anything else works.
MKAST combines many different aspects at the same time, scans multiple other Algorithms and comes to a conclusion based on over 1350 lines of code.
It is based on Divergences, Elliott Waves , Ichimoku , MACD , MACD Histogram, RSI , Stoch , CCI , Momentum, OBV, DIOSC, VWMACD, CMF and multiple EMAs.
Every single aspect is weighted into the decision before giving out an indication.
Most buy/sell Algorithms FAIL because they try to apply the same strategy to every single chart, which
are as individual as humans.
To conquer this problem, MKAST has a wide range of settings and variables which can be easily
modified.
To make it a true strategy, MKAST has as well settings for Take Profit Points, Multiple Entries and Stop
Losses. Everything with an Alert Feature of course.
I know from experience that many people take one Algorithm and are simply too LAZY to add multiple Algorithms to make a rational choice.
The result of that is that they lose money, by following blatantly only one Algorithm.
MKAST has additional 9 Indicators, perfect for the crypto market, which can be turned on and off.
Manual
MKAST Signals Settings
“Show Signals?” - On/Off to show the Buy/Sell Signals.
“Aggressiveness” - Increase to make the signals less aggressive and decrease to make them more aggressive.
“Show Custom Signals?” - On/Off to show custom MKAST Signals as chosen in the settings below.
“Custom Buy/Sell Aggressiveness” - Choose a custom Aggressiveness for each buy and sell signal individually.
“TJ-Index Requirement For Buy/Sell” - If the TJ-Index is below the given number, it will show the signal in grey, this also applies for normal signals. Buy 0 and Sell 15 shows all signals in their original colour again.
“Don’t show signals that don’t meet index requirement?” - Checked, it will completely not show signals which would be “grey” as in the explanation above.
“Change Backgroundcolour if index is at 15 or 0?” - Checked, changes the colour of the chart if the index is at 15 or 0 points
MKAST Panel Settings
“Show Info Panel?” - Shows Info Panel on the chart.
“Move Info Panel UP by %” - Moves Info Panel up/down.
“Move Info Panel Left/Right ” - Moves Info Panel Left/Right.
“Show BitMEX Panel?” - Shows BitMEX Panel on the chart.
“Move BitMEX Panel by % ” - Moves BitMEX Panel up/down.
“Move BitMEX Panel Left/Right” - Moves BitMEX Panel Left/Right. “Signal Source” - Choose source of candle open/close for Equity calculation.
“Leverage Used?” - Select the used Leverage for your strategy and Equity calculation.
“Fees Per Trade in % ” - Deducts these fees after each trade from Equity calculation.
“Round Current Profit Price?” - Rounds the number on the Panel. “Trading Periods ” - Choose a trading Period which will be used to calculate Period Equity.
“Show separations of each Trading Period?” - Show separations on the chart of each Trading Period.
The very new feature on Tradingview and obviously now as well on MKAST are Information Panels.
I have chosen to add an Info Panel and a BitMEX Price Panel into MKAST, to make live and even
backtesting easier.
With only one blink of an eye the user is able to see ALL relevant information, without having to go
through various ways of checking and using other tools.
The Info Panel:
The first row shows the current profit. This is calculated since the signal initiation and the current candle close. Followed by a single number, which represents the current TJ-Index, removing the need of having to add the actual TJ-Index Oscillator on the chart.
The second row shows the current position and its status. This was added on request of many users wanting to know if their position is “about to change” or not. The status shows the users if the position is “endangered” or “okay”.
Followed by the “backtesting tool” already included inside the Panel. No need for complex oscillators with a hard reading for backtesting. With this one and simple panel, you see the Period Equity for the period chosen previously in the settings. This calculates all profits made inside that period and re-sets when the period ends. Right next to it, the Total Equity calculating ALL profits since the beginning of the chart.
Right below, you see the information about the last long and short position which have been open. This helps with the evaluation and documentation of the last trade.
The BitMEX Panel:
A convenient panel which shows all BitMEX contracts and their LIVE prices. The need for opening each chart goes away, the quality and experience of trading increases.
MKAST custom Signals are one of the notorious possibilities for ADVANCED strategies with MKAST.
Users who requested these features and use them frequently are the ones, having already a very unique trading strategy and they use these very custom signals as confluence or for multiple entry trades.
These custom signals and their settings can be mostly ignored by the majority of traders who are using this Algorithm.
The idea behind the grey signals has its roots in the idea of the TJ-Index. The TJ-Index being 15 Algorithms and conditions possible showing a bullish or bearish interpretation. The index counts the Algorithms which are showing a bullish interpretation.
Like that we can make sure that signals are shown in the original colour, are only those who have an additional confluence with the TJ-Index, not letting the user buy, if at least the majority is not bullish , and not letting the user sell, if at least the majority is bearish .
The custom buy and sell aggressiveness lets the user customise the MKAST algorithm even more.
Either the users wants to see how signals are changing on a different (slightly lower or higher) aggressiveness, being able to expect a change on their own settings. OR seeing that some signals of the same sort are a little out of place and is able to move these to a different aggressiveness, increasing the profitability even more.
Needless to say, custom signals are NOT a part of the Info Panel.
MKAST Label & Trendline Settings
“Show Labels?” - On/Off to show Labels above each signal, with the percentage gain or loss, calculated from the last signal to the new signal.
“Show Trendlines?” - On/Off to show automatic Trendlines following Gainzy Lines.
“Lookback Length” - Choose a length that the automatic trendiness use for calculation. Comparable to Aggressiveness.
“Wicks//Bodies” - Change between trendiness connecting from wick to wick or from body to body.
“Black lines// Coloured lines” - Change between simply black lines or changing colour lines.
“Filter Trendlines?” - On/Off to show all trendiness or just resistance decreasing and support increasing ones.
“Limit Extensions Of The Lines?” - This value increases by how much the trendiness are being extended. 0 = endless extension, otherwise 100 = maximum custom extension.MKAST Strategy “Take Profit 1” - On/Off to show TP1 points.
“Take Profit After %” - Set the percentage after which TP1 is active.
“Take Profit 2 ” - On/Off to show TP2 points.
“Take Profit 2 After %” - Set the percentage after which TP1 is
active.
“Take Profit 3” - On/Off to show TP3 points.
“Take Profit 3 After %” - Set the percentage after which TP1 is active.
“Second Entry” - On/Off to show Second Entry points.
“Second Entry After %” - Set the percentage after which Second Entry is active.
“Third Entry” - On/Off to show Third Entry points.
“Third Entry After %” - Set the percentage after which Third Entry is active.
“Stop Loss” - On/Off to show Stop Loss points.
“Stop Loss After %” - Set the percentage after which Stop Loss is active.
MKAST Strategy
To make the life of the MKAST user even easier, I have added all adjustable Take Profit Points, Multiple entry points and Stop Loss points.
I have never seen a sustainable and reliable trading strategy without TPs, Multiple entry and especially without a stop loss. Everything in the usual and fully customisable MKAST style.
Simply choose how many Take Profit points you would like to have and choose the percentage after which you would like to see the Take Profit point appear on the chart and notify you to take profits.
Are you a Trader who likes Multiple Entries? Also no problem with MKAST. Select how many additional entries you would like to have and after how many percent you would like them to appear on the chart and remind you of adding to the position.
What would a Strategy be without a Stop Loss? Same settings apply here as on the TPs and MEs .
All of the settings are able to take fractions of a number as well. This enables users to even use all of the strategy settings for scalping or FX pairs, where high leverage and the smallest of moves are used for trading.
Needless to say, all of these settings work on RENKO and Heikin Ashi as well. These might need adjustment, since the calculation is different, yet there is nothing standing in the way of it anymore.
Crypto Modified Indicators
“Show Divergences?” - On/Off to show Divergences on the Chart based on the data of 10 different Algorithms.
“Show Oversold/bought?” - On/Off to change the colour of the chart in Oversold/bought conditions.
“Oversold/bought value?” - Choose a value for which the chart is Oversold/bought.
“Show Fibonacci Levels?” - On/Off to show automatic Fibonacci Levels.
“Fibonacci Lookback Lenght” - This value states how many candles from right now are taken into account to paint the Fibonacci Levels.
“Fibonacci Custom Period” - Choose a custom Timeframe that should be used to paint the Fibonacci Levels.
“2nd-7th Fibonacci Level” - Enter a value for the Fibonacci Levels you would like to use and see on the chart.
“Plot 1.618 Level?” - On/Off for the Fibonacci extension level.
Crypto Modified Indicators
“Show Bands?” - On/Off to show the TJ-Bands on the chart.
“Bands Length” - Choose a value for the TJ-Bands Lenght
“Show Show EMA 1-3?” - On/Off to show the EMAs 1-3 on the chart.
“EMA Lenght 1-3” - Choose a value for the first to third EMA Lenght
“Show Ichimoku? ” - On/Off to show Ichimoku on the chart.
“Show Tenkin?” - On/Off to show Tenkin on the chart. “Tenkin” - Set the lenght of the Tenkin.
“Show Kijun?” - On/Off to show Kijun on the chart.
“Kijun” - Set the lenght of the Kijun.
“Show Senkou?” - On/Off to show the Senkou on the chart. “Senkou” - Set the lenght of the Senkou.
“Displacement” - Set the value of the Displacement.
“Show Chikou Span?” - On/Off to show the Chikou Span on the chart.
Crypto Custom Indicators
In the picture above, you see the first pair of Crypto Custom Indicators. The oversold and overbought conditions are highlighted.
Bullish and Bearish divergences are also plotted on the chart.
This is personally my favourite combination of Indicators and MKAST settings. It shows nicely
everything one needs to know and makes it easier to decide wether to follow a signal or not.
We here as well a perfect example of the Automatic Fibonacci Lines (Lookback 50, Timeframe 1D).
It shows all significant levels, which we can see being respected.
Orange = 23.6%, Green = 38.2%, Red = 50%, Yellow = 61.8%, Blue = 78.6%, White = 0%;100%
In this picture above, we observe the perfect ensemble of MKAST and an EMA strategy, especially modified for crypto markets.
Here, as by default, we have the EMAs at 21, 90 and 200. These have shown to be very significant moving support and resistance points in the crypto market.
In this picture above, I lowered the timeframe to show the highly significant levels of the Ichimoku . It has not the “usual values”. These here have been modified for the volatile crypto market and set as default.
An incredibly powerful tool for anyone who is ready to step up their trading game. It is a huge part of the MKAST back end and the strategy behind it.
MKAST Custom Alerts
1
MKAST without any doubt has Custom Alerts for all Signals that it is painting on the chart.
One can even choose to receive custom notifications for Take Profit points, Multiple Entry points and
the Stop Loss points.
The signals appear on the chart DURING the candle, not at the end of the candle. Therefore, the
alerts do this as well. These appear during the candle.
Here we can see all of the possible Alerts that can be chosen to be displayed. In total it is 14 different custom alerts, based on what the trader is looking for and how he is trading.
Personally, I have 10-15 coins that I trade the most and for these I have custom notifications, mostly though only the MKAST Buy/Sell and Stop Loss Signals.
To activate Alerts for MKAST,
1) Go to the “ALERT” icon on the top tool bar of your Tradingview.
2) Select “CONDITION” as “—MKAST—“
3) Then choose ONE condition from the list of conditions.
4) On “OPTIONS” you can set how many times it appears, I have “Once per Bar”.
4.1) If you want to make sure that the signal is truly there and not just a condition for a second during the candle, choose “ONCE PER BAR CLOSE”.
5) “Expiration Time” sets the time until the alert expires. PRO users have no expiration for alerts.
6) “Alert Actions” give you a row of choices what happens and how you want to be notified.
7) “Message” is the message that you receive inside the notification.

Are you a Trader who likes Multiple Entries? Also no problem with MKAST. Select how many additional entries you would like to have and after how many percent you would like them to appear on the chart and remind you of adding to the position.
What would a Strategy be without a Stop Loss? Same settings apply here as on the TPs and MEs.
All of the settings are able to take fractions of a number as well. This enables users to even use all of the strategy settings for scalping or FX pairs, where high leverage and the smallest of moves are used for trading.
Needless to say, all of these settings work on RENKO and Heikin Ashi as well. These might need adjustment, since the calculation is different, yet there is nothing standing in the way of it anymore.

Crypto Custom Indicators
In the picture above, you see the first pair of Crypto Custom Indicators. The oversold and overbought conditions are highlighted.
Bullish and Bearish divergences are also plotted on the chart.
This is personally my favourite combination of Indicators and MKAST settings. It shows nicely
everything one needs to know and makes it easier to decide wether to follow a signal or not.
We here as well a perfect example of the Automatic Fibonacci Lines (Lookback 50, Timeframe 1D).
It shows all significant levels, which we can see being respected.
Orange = 23.6%, Green = 38.2%, Red = 50%, Yellow = 61.8%, Blue = 78.6%, White = 0%;100%
In this picture above, we observe the perfect ensemble of MKAST and an EMA strategy, especially modified for crypto markets.
Here, as by default, we have the EMAs at 21, 90 and 200. These have shown to be very significant moving support and resistance points in the crypto market.
In this picture above, I lowered the timeframe to show the highly significant levels of the Ichimoku. It has not the “usual values”. These here have been modified for the volatile crypto market and set as default.
An incredibly powerful tool for anyone who is ready to step up their trading game. It is a huge part of the MKAST back end and the strategy behind it.
MKAST Custom Alerts
1
MKAST without any doubt has Custom Alerts for all Signals that it is painting on the chart.
One can even choose to receive custom notifications for Take Profit points, Multiple Entry points and
the Stop Loss points.
The signals appear on the chart DURING the candle, not at the end of the candle. Therefore, the
alerts do this as well. These appear during the candle.
Here we can see all of the possible Alerts that can be chosen to be displayed. In total it is 14 different custom alerts, based on what the trader is looking for and how he is trading.
Personally, I have 10-15 coins that I trade the most and for these I have custom notifications, mostly though only the MKAST Buy/Sell and Stop Loss Signals.
To activate Alerts for MKAST,
1) Go to the “ALERT” icon on the top tool bar of your Tradingview.
2) Select “CONDITION” as “—MKAST—“
3) Then choose ONE condition from the list of conditions.
4) On “OPTIONS” you can set how many times it appears, I have “Once per Bar”.
4.1) If you want to make sure that the signal is truly there and not just a condition for a second during the candle, choose “ONCE PER BAR CLOSE”.
5) “Expiration Time” sets the time until the alert expires. PRO users have no expiration for alerts.
6) “Alert Actions” give you a row of choices what happens and how you want to be notified.
7) “Message” is the message that you receive inside the notification.
Thank you, Kong
T7 JNSARJNSAR stands for Just Nifty -0.14% Stop & Reverse. This is a Trend Following Daily Bar Trading System for NIFTY -0.14% . Original idea belongs to ILLANGO @ I coded the pine version of this system based on a request from @stocksonfire. Use it at your own risk after validation at your end. Neither me or my company is responsible for any losses you may incur using this system. Hope you like this system and enjoy trading it !!!
Updated V3 code for the T7 JNSAR system earlier published here V2 and here V1
Following updates made to the code
1. Added a 22 Period Simple moving average filter over and above the standard JNSAR value for generating trading signals. This simple filter reduces the whipsaw trades drastically along with similar improvements in the max draw down and overall profitability of the system. The SMA filter is turned ON by default but can be turned OFF by user through the settings window.
2. Backtest option is now turned ON by default.
Also am republishing the trading rules here again with some modification
1. Go Long when the daily close is above the JNSAR line. Go Short when the daily close is below the JNSAR line. JNSAR line is the varying green line overlayed over the price chart. Once a signal comes at market close enter in the direction of the signal @ market price @ next day market open.
2. Trade only Nifty -0.14% Index. This system was developed and backtested only for NIFTY -0.14% Index. So trade in its Futures or Options, as you may deem fit. My recommendation is to choose futures for simplicity. If you want to reduce the trading cost and go with options, trade with deep in the money options, preferably 2 strikes far from the spot price.
3. Trade all signals. Markets trend only 30-35% of the time and hence the system is only accurate to that extend. But system tends to make enough money, in this small trending window, to keep the overall profitability in good health. But one never knows when a big trend may come and when it comes its absolutely imperative that you take it. To ensure that, trade all signals and don't be choosy about what signals you are going to trade. Also I wouldn't recommend using your own analysis to trade this system. Too many drivers will crash the car.
4. Like all trend following systems, this system will have many whipsaws during flat markets along with large trade and account drawdowns. Also some months and even years may not be profitable. But to trade this system profitably, it is necessary to take these in one's stride and keep trading. As the backtester results from 1990 to 2017 proves, this system is profitable overall thus far. Take confidence from that objective fact.
5. Trade with only that amount of money you can afford to loose. Initial capital that you need to have to trade one lot of NIFTY -0.14% should be atleast - (Margin Money required to take and hold 1 lot position + maximum drawdown amount per lot)*1.2. Be prepared to add more if need be, but the above formula will give a rough idea of what you need to have to start trading and be in the game always.
6. Place an After Market Order @ Market Price with your broker after market close so that you get to execute the trade next trading day @ Market open to capture near similar price as the daily open price seen on the chart. This execution mode will give you the best chance to minimize the slippage and mimic the backtester results as closely as practically possible.
7. Follow all the 6 rules above religiously, as if your life depends on it. If you cant, then don't trade this system; You will certainly loose money.
Happy Trading !!! As always am looking out for your valuable feedback.
PHANTOM STRIKE Z-4 [ApexLegion]Phantom Strike Z-4
STRATEGY OVERVIEW
This strategy represents an analytical framework using 6 detection systems that analyze distinct market dimensions through adaptive timeframe optimization. Each system targets specific market inefficiencies - automated parameter adjustment, market condition filtering, phantom strike pattern detection, SR exit management, order block identification, and volatility-aware risk management - with results processed through a multi-component scoring calculation that determines signal generation and position management decisions.
SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE PHILOSOPHY
Phantom Strike Z-4 operates through 12 distinct parameter groups encompassing individual settings that allow detailed customization for different trading environments. The strategy employs modular design principles where each analytical component functions independently while contributing to unified decision-making protocols. This architecture enables traders to engage with structured market analysis through intuitive configuration options while the underlying algorithms handle complex computational processes.
The framework approaches certain aspects differently from static trading approaches by implementing real-time parameter adjustment based on timeframe characteristics, market volatility conditions, news event detection, and weekend gap analysis. During low-volatility periods where traditional strategies struggle to generate meaningful returns, Z-4's adaptive systems identify micro-opportunities through formation analysis and systematic patience protocols.
🔍WHY THESE CUSTOM SYSTEMS WERE INDEPENDENTLY DEVELOPED
The strategy approaches certain aspects differently from traditional indicator combinations through systematic development of original analytical approaches:
# 1. Auto Timeframe Optimization Module (ATOM)
Problem Identification: Standard strategies use fixed parameters regardless of timeframe characteristics, leading to over-optimization on specific timeframes and reduced effectiveness when market conditions change between different time intervals. Most retail traders manually adjust parameters when switching timeframes, creating inconsistency and suboptimal results. Traditional approaches may not account for how market noise, signal frequency, and intended holding periods differ substantially between 1-minute scalping and 4-hour swing trading environments.
Custom Solution Development: The ATOM system addresses these limitations through systematic parameter matrices developed specifically for each timeframe environment. During development, analysis indicated that 1-minute charts require aggressive profit-taking approaches due to rapid price reversals, while 15-minute charts benefit from patient position holding during trend development. The system automatically detects chart timeframe through TradingView's built-in functions and applies predefined parameter configurations without user intervention.
Timeframe-Specific Adaptations:
For ultra-short timeframe trading (1-minute charts), the system recognizes that market noise dominates price action, requiring tight stop losses (1.0%) and rapid profit realization (25% at TP1, 35% at TP2, 40% at TP3). Position sizes automatically reduce to 3% of equity to accommodate the higher trading frequency while mission duration limits to 20 bars prevent extended exposure during unsuitable conditions.
Medium timeframe configurations (5-minute and 15-minute charts) balance signal quality with execution frequency. The 15-minute configuration aims to provide a favorable combination of signal characteristics and practical execution for most retail traders. Formation thresholds increase to 2.0% for both stealth and strike ready levels, requiring stronger momentum confirmation before signal activation.
Longer timeframe adaptations (1-hour and 4-hour charts) accommodate swing trading approaches where positions may develop over multiple trading sessions. Position sizing increases to 10% of equity reflecting the reduced signal frequency and higher validation requirements typical of swing trading. Take profit targets extend considerably (TP1: 2.0%, TP2: 4.0%, TP3: 8.0%) to capture larger price movements characteristic of these timeframes.
# 2. Market Condition Filtering System (MCFS)
Problem Identification: Existing volatility filters use simple ATR calculations that may not distinguish between trending volatility and chaotic noise, potentially affecting signal quality during news events, market transitions, and unusual trading sessions. Traditional volatility measurements treat all price movement equally, whether it represents genuine trend development or random market noise caused by low liquidity or algorithmic trading activities.
Custom Solution Architecture: The MCFS addresses these limitations through multi-dimensional market analysis that examines volatility characteristics, external market influences, and temporal factors affecting trading conditions. Rather than relying solely on price-based volatility measurements, the system incorporates news event detection, weekend gap analysis, and session transition monitoring to provide systematic market state assessment.
Volatility Classification and Response Framework:
• EXTREME Volatility Conditions (>2.5x average ATR): When current volatility exceeds 250% of the recent average, the system recognizes potentially chaotic market conditions that often occur during major news events, market crashes, or significant fundamental developments. During these periods, position sizing automatically reduces by 70% while exit sensitivity increases by 50%.
• HIGH Volatility Conditions (1.8-2.5x average ATR): High volatility environments often represent strong trending conditions or elevated market activity that still maintains some predictability. Position sizing reduces by 40% while maintaining standard signal generation processes.
• NORMAL Volatility Conditions (1.2-1.8x average ATR): Normal volatility represents favorable trading conditions where technical analysis may provide reliable signals and market behavior tends to follow predictable patterns. All strategy parameters operate at standard settings.
• LOW Volatility Conditions (0.8-1.2x average ATR): Low volatility environments may present opportunities for increased position sizing due to reduced risk and improved signal characteristics. Position sizing increases by 30% while profit targets extend to capture larger movements when they occur.
• DEAD Volatility Conditions (<0.8x average ATR): When volatility falls below 80% of recent averages, the system suspends trading activity to avoid choppy, directionless market conditions that may produce unfavorable risk-adjusted returns.
# 3. Phantom Strike Detection Engine (PSDE)
Problem Identification: Traditional momentum indicators may lag market reversals by 2-4 bars and can generate signals during consolidation periods. Existing oscillator combinations may lack precision in identifying high-probability momentum shifts with adequate filtering mechanisms. Most trading systems rely on single-indicator signals or simple two-indicator confirmations that may not distinguish between genuine momentum changes and temporary market fluctuations.
Multi-Indicator Convergence System: The PSDE addresses these limitations through structured multi-indicator convergence requiring simultaneous confirmation across four independent momentum systems: SuperTrend directional analysis, MACD histogram acceleration, Parabolic SAR momentum validation, and CCI buffer zone detection. This approach recognizes that each indicator provides unique market insights, and their convergence may create different trading opportunity characteristics compared to individual signals.
Enhanced vs Phantom Mode Operation:
Enhanced mode activates when at least three of the four primary indicators align with directional bias while meeting minimum validation criteria. Enhanced mode provides more frequent signals while Phantom mode offers more selective signal generation with stricter confirmation requirements.
Phantom mode requires complete alignment across all four indicators plus additional momentum validation. All Enhanced mode criteria must be met, plus additional confirmation requirements. This stricter requirement set reduces signal frequency to 5-8 monthly but aims for higher signal quality through comprehensive multi-indicator alignment and additional momentum validation.
# 4. Smart Resistance Exit Grid (SR Exit Grid)
Problem Identification: Static take-profit levels may not account for changing market conditions and momentum strength. Traditional trailing stops may exit during strong moves or during reversals, while not distinguishing between profitable and losing position characteristics.
Systematic Holding Evaluation Framework: The SR Exit Grid operates through continuous evaluation of position viability rather than predetermined price targets through a structured 4-stage priority hierarchy:
🎯 1st Priority: Standard Take Profit processing (Highest Priority)
🔄 2nd Priority: SMART EXIT (Only when TP not executed)
⛔ 3rd Priority: SL/Emergency/Timeout Exit
🛡️ 4th Priority: Smart Low Logic (Separate Safety Safeguard)
The system employs a tpExecuted flag mechanism ensuring that only one exit type activates per bar, preventing conflicting orders and maintaining execution priority. Each stage operates independently with specific trigger conditions and risk management protocols.
Fast danger scoring evaluates immediate threats including SAR distance deterioration, momentum reversals, extreme CCI readings, volatility spikes, and price action intensity. When combined scores exceed specified thresholds (8.0+ danger with <2.0 confidence), the system triggers protective exits regardless of current profitability.
# 5. Order Block Tracking System (OBTS)
Problem Identification: Standard support/resistance levels are static and may not account for institutional order flow patterns. Traditional approaches may use horizontal lines without considering market structure evolution or mathematical price relationships.
Dynamic Channel Projection Logic: The OBTS creates dynamic order block identification using pivot point analysis with parallel channel projection based on mathematical price geometry. The system identifies significant turning points through configurable swing length parameters while maintaining historical context through consecutive pivot tracking for trend analysis.
Rather than drawing static horizontal lines, the system calculates slope relationships between consecutive pivot points and projects future support/resistance levels based on mathematical progression. This approach recognizes that institutional order flow may follow geometric patterns that can be mathematically modeled and projected forward.
# 6. Volatility-Aware Risk Management (VARM)
Problem Identification: Fixed percentage risk management may not adapt optimally during varying market volatility regimes, potentially creating conservative exits in low volatility and limited protection during high volatility periods. Traditional approaches may not scale dynamically with market conditions.
Dual-Mode Adaptive Framework: The VARM provides systematic risk scaling through dual-mode architecture offering both ATR-based dynamic adjustment and fixed percentage modes. Dynamic mode automatically scales all TP/SL levels based on current market volatility while maintaining proportional risk-reward relationships. Fixed mode provides predictable percentage-based levels regardless of volatility conditions.
Emergency protection protocols operate independently from standard risk management, providing enhanced safeguards against significant moves that exceed normal volatility expectations. The emergency system cannot be disabled and triggers at wider levels than normal stops, providing final protection when standard risk management may be insufficient during extreme market events.
## Technical Formation Analysis System
The foundation of Z-4's analytical framework rests on a structured EMA system utilizing 8, 21, and 50-period exponential moving averages that create formation structure analysis. This system differs from simple crossover signals by evaluating market geometry and momentum alignment.
Formation Gap Analysis: The formation gap measurement calculates the percentage separation between Recon Scout EMA (8-period) and Technical Support EMA (21-period) to determine market state classification. When gap percentage falls below the Stealth Mode Threshold (default 1.5%), the market enters consolidation phase requiring enhanced patience. When gap exceeds Strike Ready Threshold (1.5%), conditions become favorable for momentum-based entries.
This mathematical approach to formation analysis provides structured measurement of market transition states. During stealth mode periods, the strategy reduces entry frequency while maintaining monitoring protocols. Strike ready conditions activate increased signal sensitivity and quicker entry evaluation processes.
The Command Base EMA (50-period) provides strategic context for overall market direction and trend strength measurement. Position decisions incorporate not only immediate formation geometry but also alignment with longer-term directional bias represented by Command Base positioning relative to current price action.
🎯CORE SYSTEMS TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION
# SuperTrend Foundation Analysis Implementation
SuperTrend calculation provides the directional foundation through volatility-adjusted bands that adapt to current market conditions rather than using fixed parameters. The system employs configurable ATR length (default 10) and multiplier (default 3.0) to create dynamic support/resistance levels that respond to both trending and ranging market environments.
Volatility-Adjusted Band Calculation:
st_atr = ta.atr(stal)
st_hl2 = (high + low) / 2
st_ub = st_hl2 + stm * st_atr
st_lb = st_hl2 - stm * st_atr
stb = close > st and ta.rising(st, 3)
The HL2 methodology (high+low)/2 aims to provide stable price reference compared to closing prices alone, reducing sensitivity to intraday price spikes that can distort traditional SuperTrend calculations. ATR multiplication creates bands that expand during volatile periods and contract during consolidation, aiming for suitable signal sensitivity across different market conditions.
Rising/Falling Trend Confirmation: The key feature involves requiring rising/falling trend confirmation over multiple periods rather than simple price-above-band validation. This requirement screens signals that occur during SuperTrend whipsaw periods common in sideways markets. SuperTrend signals with 3-period rising confirmation help reduce false signals that occur during sideways market conditions compared to simple crossover signals.
Band Distance Validation: The system measures the distance between current price and SuperTrend level as a percentage of current price, requiring minimum separation thresholds to identify meaningful momentum rather than marginal directional changes. This validation aims to reduce signal generation during periods where price oscillates closely around SuperTrend levels, indicating indecision rather than clear directional bias.
# MACD Histogram Acceleration System - Momentum Detection
MACD analysis focuses exclusively on histogram acceleration rather than traditional line crossovers, aiming to provide earlier momentum detection. This approach recognizes that histogram acceleration may precede price acceleration by 1-2 bars, potentially offering timing benefits compared to conventional MACD applications.
Acceleration-Based Signal Generation:
mf = ta.ema(close, mfl)
ms = ta.ema(close, msl)
ml = mf - ms
msg = ta.ema(ml, msgl)
mh = ml - msg
mb = mh > 0 and mh > mh and mh > mh
The requirement for positive histogram values that increase over two consecutive periods aims to identify genuine momentum expansion rather than temporary fluctuations. This filtering approach aims to reduce false signals while maintaining signal quality.
Fast/Slow EMA Optimization: The default 12/26 EMA combination aims for intended balance between responsiveness and stability for most trading timeframes. However, the system allows customization for specific market characteristics or trading styles. Shorter settings (8/21) increase sensitivity for scalping approaches, while longer settings (16/32) provide smoother signals for swing trading applications.
Signal Line Smoothing Effects: The 9-period signal line smoothing creates histogram values that screen high-frequency noise while preserving essential momentum information. This smoothing level aims to balance signal latency and accuracy across multiple market conditions.
# Parabolic SAR Validation Framework - Momentum Verification
Parabolic SAR provides momentum validation through price separation analysis and inflection detection that may precede significant trend changes. The system requires minimum separation thresholds while monitoring SAR behavior for early reversal signals.
Separation-Based Validation:
sar = ta.sar(ss, si, sm)
sarb = close > sar and (close - sar) / close > 0.005
sardp = math.abs(close - sar) / close * 100
sariu = sarm > 0 and sarm < 0 and math.abs(sarmc) > saris
The 0.5% minimum separation requirement screens marginal directional changes that may reverse within 1-3 bars. The 0.5% minimum separation requirement helps filter out marginal directional changes.
SAR Inflection Detection: SAR inflection identification examines rate-of-change over 5-period lookback periods to detect momentum direction changes before they appear in price action. Inflection sensitivity (default 1.5) determines the magnitude of momentum change required for classification. These inflection points may precede significant price reversals by 1-2 bars, potentially providing early signals for position protection or entry timing.
Strength Classification Framework: The system categorizes SAR momentum into weak/moderate/strong classifications based on distance percentage relative to strength range thresholds. Strong momentum periods (>75% of range) receive enhanced weighting in composite calculations, while weak periods (<25%) trigger additional confirmation requirements. This classification aims to distinguish between genuine momentum moves and temporary price fluctuations.
# CCI SMART Buffer Zone System - Oscillator Analysis
The CCI SMART system represents a detailed component of the PSDE, combining multiple mathematical techniques to create modified momentum detection compared to conventional CCI applications. The system employs ALMA preprocessing, TANH normalization, and dynamic buffer zone analysis for market timing.
ALMA Preprocessing Benefits: Arnaud Legoux Moving Average preprocessing aims to provide phase-neutral smoothing that reduces high-frequency noise while preserving essential momentum information. The configurable offset (0.85) and sigma (6.0) parameters create Gaussian filter characteristics that aim to maintain signal timing while reducing unwanted signals caused by random price fluctuations.
TANH Normalization Advantages: The rational TANH approximation creates bounded output (-100 to +100) that aims to prevent extreme readings from distorting analysis while maintaining sensitivity to normal market conditions. This normalization is designed to provide consistent behavior across different volatility regimes and market conditions, addressing an aspect found in traditional CCI applications.
Rational TANH Approximation Implementation:
rational_tanh(x) =>
abs_x = math.abs(x)
if abs_x >= 4.0
x >= 0 ? 1.0 : -1.0
else
x2 = x * x
numerator = x * (135135 + x2 * (17325 + x2 * (378 + x2)))
denominator = 135135 + x2 * (62370 + x2 * (3150 + x2 * 28))
numerator / denominator
cci_smart = rational_tanh(cci / 150) * 100
The rational approximation uses polynomial coefficients that provide mathematical precision equivalent to native TANH functions while maintaining computational efficiency. The 4.0 absolute value threshold creates complete saturation at extreme values, while the polynomial series delivers smooth S-curve transformation for intermediate values.
Dynamic Buffer Zone Analysis: Unlike static support/resistance levels, the CCI buffer system creates zones that adapt to current market volatility through ALMA-calculated true range measurements. Upper and lower boundaries expand during volatile periods and contract during consolidation, providing context-appropriate entry and exit levels.
CCI Buffer System Implementation:
cci = ta.cci(close, ccil)
cci_atr = ta.alma(ta.tr, al, ao, asig)
cci_bu = low - ccim * cci_atr
cci_bd = high + ccim * cci_atr
ccitu = cci > 50 and cci > cci
CCI buffer analysis creates dynamic support/resistance zones using ALMA-smoothed true range calculations rather than fixed levels. Buffer upper and lower boundaries adapt to current market volatility through ALMA calculation with configurable offset (default 0.85) and sigma (default 6.0) parameters.
The CCI trending requirements (>50 and rising) provide directional confirmation while buffer zone analysis offers price level validation. This dual-component approach identifies both momentum direction and suitable entry/exit price levels relative to current market volatility.
# Momentum Gathering and Assessment Framework
The strategy incorporates a dual-component momentum system combining RSI and MFI calculations into unified momentum assessment with configurable suppression and elevation thresholds.
Composite Momentum Calculation:
ri = ta.rsi(close, mgp)
mi = ta.mfi(close, mip)
ci = (ri + mi) / 2
us = ci < sl // Undersupported conditions
ed = ci > dl // Elevated conditions
The composite momentum score averages RSI and MFI over configurable periods (default 14) to create unified momentum measurement that incorporates both price momentum and volume-weighted momentum. This dual-factor approach provides different momentum assessment compared to single-indicator analysis.
Suppression level identification (default 35) indicates oversold conditions where counter-trend opportunities may develop. These conditions often coincide with formation analysis showing bullish progression potential, creating enhanced-validation long entry scenarios. Elevation level detection (default 65) identifies overbought conditions suitable for either short entries or long position exits depending on overall market context.
The momentum assessment operates continuously, providing real-time context for all entry and exit decisions. Rather than using fixed thresholds, the system evaluates momentum levels relative to formation geometry and volatility conditions to determine suitable response protocols.
Composite Signal Generation Architecture:
The strategy employs a systematic scoring framework that aggregates signals from independent analytical modules into unified decision matrices through mathematical validation protocols rather than simple indicator combinations.
Multi-Group Signal Analysis Structure:
The scoring architecture operates through three analytical timeframe groups, each targeting different market characteristics and response requirements:
✅Fast Group Analysis (Immediate Response): Fast group scoring evaluates immediate market conditions requiring rapid assessment and response. SAR distance analysis measures price separation from parabolic SAR as percentage of close price, with distance ratios exceeding 120% of strength range indicating momentum exhaustion (3.0 points). SAR momentum detection captures rate-of-change over 5-period lookback, with absolute momentum exceeding 2.0% indicating notable acceleration or deceleration (1.0 point).
✅Medium Group Analysis (Signal Development): Medium group scoring focuses on signal development and confirmation through momentum indicator progression. Phantom Strike detection operates in two modes: Enhanced mode requiring 4-component confirmation awards 3.0 base points, while Phantom mode requiring complete alignment plus additional criteria awards 4.0 base points.
✅Slow Group Analysis (Strategic Context): Slow group analysis provides strategic market context through trend regime classification and structural assessment. Trend classification scoring awards top points (3.5) for optimal conditions: major trend bullish with strong trend strength (>2.0% EMA spread), 2.8 points for normal strength major trends, and proportional scoring for various trend states.
Signal Integration and Quality Assessment: The integration process combines medium group tactical scoring with 30% weighting from slow group strategic assessment, recognizing that immediate signal development should receive primary emphasis while strategic context provides important validation. Fast group danger levels operate as filtering mechanisms rather than additive scoring components.
Score normalization converts raw calculations to 10-point scales through division by total possible score (19.6) and multiplication by 10. This standardization enables consistent threshold application regardless of underlying calculation complexity while maintaining proportional relationships between different signal strength levels.
Conflict Resolution and Priority Logic:
sc = math.abs(cs_les - cs_ses) < 1.5
hqls = sql and not sc and (cs_les > cs_ses * 1.15)
hqss = sqs and not sc and (cs_ses > cs_les * 1.15)
Signal conflict detection identifies situations where competing long/short signals occur simultaneously within 1.5-point differential. During conflict periods, the system requires 15% threshold margin plus absence of conflict conditions for signal activation, screening trades during uncertain market conditions.
🧠CONFIGURATION SETTINGS & USAGE GUIDE
Understanding Parameter Categories and Their Impact
The Phantom Strike Z-4 strategy organizes its numerous parameters into 12 logical groups, each controlling specific aspects of market analysis and position management. Understanding these parameter relationships enables users to customize the strategy for different trading styles, market conditions, and risk preferences without compromising the underlying analytical framework.
Parameter Group Overview and Interaction: Parameters within the strategy do not operate in isolation. Changes to formation thresholds affect signal generation frequency, which in turn impacts intended position sizing and risk management settings. Similarly, timeframe optimization automatically adjusts multiple parameter groups simultaneously, creating coordinated system behavior rather than piecemeal modifications.
Safe Modification Ranges: Each parameter includes minimum and maximum values that prevent system instability or illogical configurations. These ranges are designed to maintain strategy behavior stability and functional operation. Operating outside these ranges may result in either excessive conservatism (missed opportunities) or excessive aggression (increased risk without proportional reward).
# Tactical Formation Parameters (Group 1) - Foundation Configuration
**EMA Period Settings and Market Response**
Recon Scout EMA (Default: 8 periods): The fastest moving average in the system, providing immediate price action response and early momentum detection. This parameter influences signal sensitivity and entry timing characteristics. Values between 5-12 periods may work across most market conditions, with specific adjustment based on trading style and timeframe preferences.
-Conservative Setting (10-12 periods): Reduces signal frequency by approximately 25% while potentially improving accuracy by 8-12%. Suitable for traders preferring fewer, higher-quality signals with reduced monitoring requirements.
-Standard Setting (8 periods): Provides balanced performance with moderate signal frequency and reasonable accuracy. Represents intended configuration for most users based on backtesting across multiple market conditions.
-Aggressive Setting (5-6 periods): Increases signal frequency by 35-40% while accepting 5-8% accuracy reduction. Appropriate for active traders comfortable with increased position monitoring and faster decision-making requirements.
Technical Support EMA (Default: 21 periods): Creates medium-term trend reference and formation gap calculations that determine market state classification. This parameter establishes the baseline for consolidation detection and momentum confirmation, influencing the strategy's approach to distinguish between trending and ranging market conditions.
Command Base EMA (Default: 50 periods): Provides strategic context and long-term trend classification that influences overall market bias and position sizing decisions. This slower moving average acts as a filter for trade direction, helping support alignment with broader market trends rather than counter-trend trading against major market movements.
**Formation Threshold Configuration**
Stealth Mode Threshold (Default: 1.5%): Defines the maximum percentage gap between Recon Scout and Technical Support EMAs that indicates market consolidation. When the gap falls below this threshold, the market enters "stealth mode" requiring enhanced patience and reduced entry frequency. This parameter influences how the strategy behaves during sideways market conditions.
-Tight Threshold (0.8-1.2%): Creates more restrictive consolidation detection, reducing entry frequency during marginal trending conditions but potentially improving accuracy by avoiding low-momentum signals.
-Standard Threshold (1.5%): Provides balanced consolidation detection suitable for most market conditions and trading styles.
-Loose Threshold (2.0-3.0%): Permits trading during moderate consolidation periods, increasing opportunity capture but accepting some reduction in signal quality during transitional market phases.
-Strike Ready Threshold (Default: 1.5%): Establishes minimum EMA separation required for momentum-based entries. When the gap exceeds this threshold, conditions become favorable for signal generation and position entry. This parameter works inversely to Stealth Mode, determining when market conditions support active trading.
# Momentum System Configuration (Group 2) - Momentum Assessment
**Oscillator Period Settings**
Momentum Gathering Period (Default: 14): Controls RSI calculation length, influencing momentum detection sensitivity and signal timing. This parameter determines how quickly the momentum system responds to price momentum changes versus how stable the momentum readings remain during normal market fluctuations.
-Fast Response (7-10 periods): Aims for rapid momentum detection suitable for scalping approaches but may generate more unwanted signals during choppy market conditions.
-Standard Response (14 periods): Provides balanced momentum measurement appropriate for most trading styles and timeframes.
-Smooth Response (18-25 periods): Creates more stable momentum readings suitable for swing trading but with delayed response to momentum changes.
-Mission Indicator Period (Default: 14): Determines MFI (Money Flow Index) calculation length, incorporating volume-weighted momentum analysis alongside price-based RSI measurements. The relationship between RSI and MFI periods affects how the composite momentum score behaves during different market conditions.
**Momentum Threshold Configuration**
-Suppression Level (Default: 35): Identifies oversold conditions indicating potential bullish reversal opportunities. This threshold determines when the momentum system signals that selling pressure may be exhausted and buying interest could emerge. Lower values create more restrictive oversold identification, while higher values increase sensitivity to potential reversal conditions.
-Dominance Level (Default: 65): Establishes overbought thresholds for potential bearish reversals or long position exit consideration. The separation between Suppression and Dominance levels creates a neutral zone where momentum conditions don't strongly favor either direction.
# Phantom Strike System Configuration (Group 3) - Core Signal Generation
**System Activation and Mode Selection**
Phantom Strike System Enable (Default: True): Activates the core signal generation methodology combining SuperTrend, MACD, SAR, and CCI confirmation requirements. Disabling this system converts the strategy to basic formation analysis without advanced momentum confirmation, substantially affecting signal characteristics while increasing frequency.
Phantom Strike Mode (Default: PHANTOM): Determines signal generation strictness through different confirmation requirements. This setting fundamentally affects trading frequency, signal accuracy, and required monitoring intensity.
ENHANCED Mode: Requires 4-component confirmation with moderate validation criteria. Suitable for active trading approaches where signal frequency balances with accuracy requirements.
PHANTOM Mode: Requires complete alignment across all indicators plus additional momentum criteria. Appropriate for selective trading approaches where signal quality takes priority over frequency.
**SuperTrend Configuration**
SuperTrend ATR Length (Default: 10): Determines volatility measurement period for dynamic band calculation. This parameter affects how quickly SuperTrend bands adapt to changing market conditions and how sensitive the trend detection becomes to short-term price movements.
SuperTrend Multiplier (Default: 3.0): Controls band width relative to ATR measurements, influencing trend change sensitivity and signal frequency. This parameter determines how much price movement is required to trigger trend direction changes.
**MACD System Parameters**
MACD Fast Length (Default: 12): Establishes responsive EMA for MACD line calculation, influencing histogram acceleration detection timing and signal sensitivity.
MACD Slow Length (Default: 26): Creates baseline EMA for MACD calculations, establishing the reference for momentum measurement.
MACD Signal Length (Default: 9): Smooths MACD line to generate histogram values used for acceleration detection.

SAR Increment (Default: 0.02): Controls acceleration factor increases as trends develop, affecting how quickly SAR approaches price during sustained moves.
SAR Maximum (Default: 0.2): Establishes upper limit for acceleration factor, preventing rapid SAR approach speed during extended trends.
**CCI Buffer System Configuration**
CCI Length (Default: 20): Determines period for CCI calculation, affecting oscillator sensitivity and signal timing.
CCI ATR Length (Default: 5): Controls period for ALMA-smoothed true range calculations used in dynamic buffer zone creation.
CCI Multiplier (Default: 1.0): Determines buffer zone width relative to ATR calculations, affecting entry requirements and signal frequency.
⭐HOW TO USE THE STRATEGY
# Step 1: Core Parameter Setup
Technical Formation Group (g1) - Foundation Settings: The Technical Formation group provides the foundational analytical framework through 7 key parameters that influence signal generation and timeframe optimization.
Auto Optimization Controls:
enable_auto_tf = input.bool(false, "🎯 Enable Auto Timeframe Optimization")
enable_market_filters = input.bool(true, "🌪️ Enable Market Condition Filters")
Auto Timeframe Optimization activation automatically detects chart timeframe and applies configured parameter matrices developed for each time interval. When enabled, the system overrides manual settings with backtested suggested values for 1M/5M/15M/1H configurations.
Market Condition Filters enable real-time parameter adjustment based on volatility classification, news event detection, and weekend gap analysis. This system provides adaptive behavior during unusual market conditions, automatically reducing position sizes during extreme volatility and increasing exit sensitivity during news events.
# Step 2: The Momentum System Configuration
Momentum Gathering Parameters (g2): The Momentum System combines RSI and MFI calculations into unified momentum assessment with configurable thresholds for market state classification.
# Step 3: Phantom Strike System Setup
Core Detection Parameters (g3): The Phantom Strike System represents the strategy's primary signal generation engine through multi-indicator convergence analysis requiring detailed configuration for intended performance.
Phantom Strike Mode selection determines signal generation strictness. Enhanced mode requires 4-component confirmation (SuperTrend + MACD + SAR + CCI) with base scoring of 3.0 points, structured for active trading with moderate confirmation requirements. Phantom mode requires complete alignment across all indicators plus additional momentum criteria with 4.0 base scoring, creating enhanced validation signals for selective trading approaches
# Step 4: SR Exit Grid Configuration
Position Management Framework (g6): The SR Exit Grid system manages position lifecycle through progressive profit-taking and adaptive holding evaluation based on market condition analysis.
esr = input.bool(true, "Enable SR Exit Grid")
ept = input.bool(true, "Enable Partial Take Profit")
ets = input.bool(true, "Enable Technical Trailing Stop")
📊MULTI-TIMEFRAME SYSTEM & ADAPTIVE FEATURES
Auto Timeframe Optimization Architecture: The Auto Timeframe Optimization system provides automated parameter adaptation that automatically configures strategy behavior based on chart timeframe characteristics with reduced need for manual adjustment.
1-Minute Ultra Scalping Configuration:
get_1M_params() =>
StrategyParams.new(
smt = 0.8, srt = 1.0, mcb = 2, mmd = 20,
smartThreshold = 0.1, consecutiveLimit = 20,
positionSize = 3.0, enableQuickEntry = true,
ptp1 = 25, ptp2 = 35, ptp3 = 40,
tm1 = 1.5, tm2 = 3.0, tm3 = 4.5, tmf = 6.0,
isl = 1.0, esl = 2.0, tsd = 0.5, dsm = 1.5)
15-Minute Swing Trading Configuration:
get_15M_params() =>
StrategyParams.new(
smt = 2.0, srt = 2.0, mcb = 8, mmd = 100,
smartThreshold = 0.3, consecutiveLimit = 12,
positionSize = 7.0, enableQuickEntry = false,
ptp1 = 15, ptp2 = 25, ptp3 = 35,
tm1 = 4.0, tm2 = 8.0, tm3 = 12.0, tmf = 18.0,
isl = 2.0, esl = 3.5, tsd = 1.2, dsm = 2.5)
Market Condition Filter Integration:
if enable_market_filters
vol_condition = get_volatility_condition()
is_news = is_news_time()
is_gap = is_weekend_gap()
step1 = adjust_for_volatility(base_params, vol_condition)
step2 = adjust_for_news(step1, is_news)
final_params = adjust_for_gap(step2, is_gap)
Market condition filters operate in conjunction with timeframe optimization to provide systematic parameter adaptation based on both temporal and market state characteristics. The system applies cascading adjustments where each filter modifies parameters before subsequent filter application.
Volatility Classification Thresholds:
- EXTREME: >2.5x average ATR (70% position reduction, 50% exit sensitivity increase)
- HIGH: 1.8-2.5x average (40% position reduction, increased monitoring)
- NORMAL: 1.2-1.8x average (standard operations)
- LOW: 0.8-1.2x average (30% position increase, extended targets)
- DEAD: <0.8x average (trading suspension)
The volatility classification system compares current 14-period ATR against a 50-period moving average to establish baseline market activity levels. This approach aims to provide stable volatility assessment compared to simple ATR readings, which can be distorted by single large price movements or temporary market disruptions.

Strategy Components
1. Core Signal Logic (High-Speed Momentum)
The strategy’s engine is a momentum-based system using fast and slow Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), now tuned for faster, more frequent trades.
How It Works:
Fast/Slow EMAs: Fast EMA (Aggressive: 5, Balanced: 7, Conservative: 9 bars) and slow EMA (12/14/18 bars) track short-term vs. longer-term momentum.
Crossover Signals:
Buy: Fast EMA crosses above slow EMA, and trend_dir = 1 (fast EMA > slow EMA + ATR * strength threshold).
Sell: Fast EMA crosses below slow EMA, and trend_dir = -1 (fast EMA < slow EMA - ATR * strength threshold).
Strength Filter: ma_strength = fast EMA - slow EMA must exceed an ATR-scaled threshold (Aggressive: 0.15, Balanced: 0.18, Conservative: 0.25) for robust signals.
Trend Direction: trend_dir confirms momentum, filtering out weak crossovers in choppy markets.
Evolution:
Faster EMAs (down from 7–10/21–50) catch short-term trends, perfect for active futures markets.
Lower strength thresholds (0.15–0.25 vs. 0.3–0.5) make signals more sensitive, boosting trade frequency without sacrificing quality.
Preset tuning ensures beginners get optimized settings, while pros can tweak via mode selection.
2. Market Sentiment Filters
The strategy leans hard into market sentiment with a VIX filter, SPX trend analysis, and sector breadth visuals, keeping trades aligned with the big picture.
VIX Filter:
Logic: Blocks long entries if VIX > threshold (default: 20, can_long = vix_close < vix_limit). Shorts are always allowed (can_short = true).
Impact: Prevents longs during high-fear markets (e.g., VIX spikes in crashes), while allowing shorts to capitalize on downturns.
SPX Trend Filter:
Logic: Compares S&P 500 (SPX) close to its SMA (Aggressive: 5, Balanced: 8, Conservative: 12 bars). spx_trend = 1 (UP) if close > SMA, -1 (DOWN) if < SMA, 0 (FLAT) if neutral.
Impact: Provides dashboard context, encouraging trades that align with market direction (e.g., longs in UP trend).
Sector Breadth (Visual):
Logic: Tracks 10 sector ETFs (XLK, XLF, XLE, etc.) vs. their SMAs (same lengths as SPX). Each sector scores +1 (bullish), -1 (bearish), or 0 (neutral), summed as breadth (-10 to +10).
Display: Green background if breadth > 4, red if breadth < -4, else neutral. Dashboard shows sector trends (↑/↓/-).
Impact: Faster SMA lengths make breadth more responsive, reflecting sector rotations (e.g., tech surging, energy lagging).
Why It’s Brilliant:
- VIX filter adds pro-level volatility awareness, saving beginners from panic-driven losses.
- SPX and sector breadth give a 360° view of market health, boosting signal confidence (e.g., green BG + buy signal = high-probability trade).
- Shorter SMAs make sentiment visuals react faster, perfect for 5min charts.
3. Risk Management
The risk controls are a fortress, now tighter and more dynamic to support frequent trading while keeping accounts safe.
Preset-Based Risk:
Aggressive: Fast EMAs (5/12), tight stops (1.1x ATR), 1-bar cooldown. High trade frequency, higher risk.
Balanced: EMAs (7/14), 1.2x ATR stops, 1-bar cooldown. Versatile for most traders.
Conservative: EMAs (9/18), 1.3x ATR stops, 2-bar cooldown. Safer, fewer trades.
Impact: Auto-scales risk to match style, making it foolproof for beginners.
Adaptive Stops and Take-Profits:
Logic: Stops = entry ± ATR * atr_mult (1.1–1.3x, down from 1.2–2.0x). Take-profits = entry ± ATR * take_mult (2x stop distance, 2:1 reward/risk). Longs: stop below entry, TP above; shorts: vice versa.
Impact: Tighter stops increase trade turnover while maintaining solid risk/reward, adapting to volatility.
Trade Cooldown:
Logic: Preset-driven (Aggressive/Balanced: 1 bar, Conservative: 2 bars vs. old user-input 2). Ensures bar_index - last_trade_bar >= cooldown.
Impact: Faster cooldowns (especially Aggressive/Balanced) allow more trades, balanced by VIX and strength filters.
Contract Sizing:
Logic: User sets contracts (default: 1, max: 10), no preset cap (unlike old 7/5/3 suggestion).
Impact: Flexible but risks over-leverage; beginners should stick to low contracts.
Built To Be Reliable and Consistent:
- Tighter stops and faster cooldowns make it a high-octane system without blowing up accounts.
- Preset-driven risk removes guesswork, letting newbies trade confidently.
- 2:1 TPs ensure profitable trades outweigh losses, even in volatile sessions like April 27, 2025 ES slippage.
4. Trade Entry and Exit Logic
The entry/exit rules are simple yet razor-sharp, now with VIX filtering and faster signals:
Entry Conditions:
Long Entry: buy_signal (fast EMA crosses above slow EMA, trend_dir = 1), no position (strategy.position_size = 0), cooldown passed (can_trade), and VIX < 20 (can_long). Enters with user-defined contracts.
Short Entry: sell_signal (fast EMA crosses below slow EMA, trend_dir = -1), no position, cooldown passed, can_short (always true).
Logic: Tracks last_entry_bar for visuals, last_trade_bar for cooldowns.
Exit Conditions:
Stop-Loss/Take-Profit: ATR-based stops (1.1–1.3x) and TPs (2x stop distance). Longs exit if price hits stop (below) or TP (above); shorts vice versa.
No Other Exits: Keeps it straightforward, relying on stops/TPs.
5. DAFE Visuals
The visuals are pure DAFE magic, blending clean function with informative metrics utilized by professionals, now enhanced by faster signals and a responsive breadth background:
EMA Plots:
Display: Fast EMA (blue, 2px), slow EMA (orange, 2px), using faster lengths (5–9/12–18).
Purpose: Highlights momentum shifts, with crossovers signaling entries.
Sector Breadth Background:
Display: Green (90% transparent) if breadth > 4, red (90%) if breadth < -4, else neutral.
Purpose: Faster breadth_sma_len (5–12 vs. 10–50) reflects sector shifts in real-time, reinforcing signal strength.
- Visuals are intuitive, turning complex signals into clear buy/sell cues.
- Faster breadth background reacts to market rotations (e.g., tech vs. energy), giving a pro-level edge.
6. Sector Breadth Dashboard
The new bottom-left dashboard is a game-changer, a 3x16 table (black/gray theme) that’s your market command center:
Metrics:
VIX: Current VIX (red if > 20, gray if not).
SPX: Trend as “UP” (green), “DOWN” (red), or “FLAT” (gray).
Trade Longs: “OK” (green) if VIX < 20, “BLOCK” (red) if not.
Sector Breadth: 10 sectors (Tech, Financial, etc.) with trend arrows (↑ green, ↓ red, - gray).
Placeholder Row: Empty for future metrics (e.g., ATR, breadth score).
Purpose: Consolidates regime, volatility, market trend, and sector data, making decisions a breeze.
- VIX and SPX metrics add context, helping beginners avoid bad trades (e.g., no longs if “BLOCK”).
Sector arrows show market health at a glance, like a cheat code for sentiment.
Key Features
Beginner-Ready: Preset modes and clear visuals make futures trading a breeze.
Sentiment-Driven: VIX filter, SPX trend, and sector breadth keep you in sync with the market.
High-Frequency: Faster EMAs, tighter stops, and short cooldowns boost trade volume.

[3Commas] HA & MAHA & MA
🔷What it does: This tool is designed to test a trend-following strategy using Heikin Ashi candles and moving averages. It enters trades after pullbacks, aiming to let profits run once the risk-to-reward ratio reaches 1:1 while securing the position.
🔷Who is it for: It is ideal for traders looking to compare final results using fixed versus dynamic take profits by adjusting parameters and trade direction—a concept applicable to most trading strategies.
🔷How does it work: We use moving averages to define the market trend, then wait for opposite Heikin Ashi candles to form against it. Once these candles reverse in favor of the trend, we enter the trade, using the last swing created by the pullback as the stop loss. By applying the breakeven ratio, we protect the trade and let it run, using the slower moving average as a trailing stop.
A buy signal is generated when:
The previous candle is bearish (ha_bear ), indicating a pullback.
The fast moving average (ma1) is above the slow moving average (ma2), confirming an uptrend.
The current candle is bullish (ha_bull), showing trend continuation.
The Heikin Ashi close is above the fast moving average (ma1), reinforcing the bullish bias.
The real price close is above the open (close > open), ensuring bullish momentum in actual price data.
The signal is confirmed on the closed candle (barstate.isconfirmed) to avoid premature signals.
dir is undefined (na(dir)), preventing repeated signals in the same direction.
A sell signal is generated when:
The previous candle is bullish (ha_bull ), indicating a temporary upward move before a potential reversal.
The fast moving average (ma1) is below the slow moving average (ma2), confirming a downtrend.
The current candle is bearish (ha_bear), showing trend continuation to the downside.
The Heikin Ashi close is below the fast moving average (ma1), reinforcing bearish pressure.
The real price close is below the open (close < open), confirming bearish momentum in actual price data.
The signal is confirmed after the candle closes (barstate.isconfirmed), avoiding premature entries.
dir is undefined (na(dir)), preventing consecutive signals in the same direction.
In simple terms, this setup looks for trend continuation after a pullback, confirming entries with both Heikin Ashi and real price action, supported by moving average alignment to avoid false signals.
If the price reaches a 1:1 risk-to-reward ratio, the stop will be moved to the entry point. However, if the slow moving average surpasses this level, it will become the new exit point, acting as a trailing stop
🔷Why It’s Unique
Easily visualizes the benefits of using risk-to-reward ratios when trading instead of fixed percentages.
Provides a simple and straightforward approach to trading, embracing the "keep it simple" concept.
Offers clear visualization of DCA Bot entry and exit points based on user preferences.
Includes an option to review the message format before sending signals to bots, with compatibility for multi-pair and futures contract pairs.
🔷 Considerations Before Using the Indicator
⚠️Very important: The indicator must be used on charts with real price data, such as Japanese candlesticks, line charts, etc. Do not use it on Heikin Ashi charts, as this may lead to unrealistic results.
🔸Since this is a trend-following strategy, use it on timeframes above 4 hours, where market noise is reduced and trends are clearer. Also, carefully review the statistics before using it, focusing on pairs that tend to have long periods of well-defined trends.
🔸Disadvantages:
False Signals in Ranges: Consolidating markets can generate unreliable signals.
Lagging Indicator: Being based on moving averages, it may react late to sudden price movements.
🔸Advantages:
Trend Focused: Simplifies the identification of trending markets.
Noise Reduction: Uses Heikin Ashi candles to identify trend continuation after pullbacks.
Broad Applicability: Suitable for forex, crypto, stocks, and commodities.
🔸The strategy provides a systematic way to analyze markets but does not guarantee successful outcomes. Use it as an additional tool rather than relying solely on an automated system.
Trading results depend on various factors, including market conditions, trader discipline, and risk management. Past performance does not ensure future success, so always approach the market cautiously.
🔸Risk Management: Define stop-loss levels, position sizes, and profit targets before entering any trade. Be prepared for potential losses and ensure your approach aligns with your overall trading plan.
🔷 STRATEGY PROPERTIES
Symbol: BINANCE:BTCUSDT (Spot).
Timeframe: 4h.
Test Period: All historical data available.
Initial Capital: 10000 USDT.
Order Size per Trade: 1% of Capital, you can use a higher value e.g. 5%, be cautious that the Max Drawdown does not exceed 10%, as it would indicate a very risky trading approach.
Commission: Binance commission 0.1%, adjust according to the exchange being used, lower numbers will generate unrealistic results. By using low values e.g. 5%, it allows us to adapt over time and check the functioning of the strategy.
Slippage: 5 ticks, for pairs with low liquidity or very large orders, this number should be increased as the order may not be filled at the desired level.
Margin for Long and Short Positions: 100%.
Indicator Settings: Default Configuration.
MA1 Length: 9.
MA2 Length: 18.
MA Calculations: EMA.
Take Profit Ratio: Disable. Ratio 1:4.
Breakeven Ratio: Enable, Ratio 1:1.
Strategy: Long & Short.
🔷 STRATEGY RESULTS
⚠️Remember, past results do not guarantee future performance.
Net Profit: +324.88 USDT (+3.25%).
Max Drawdown: -81.18 USDT (-0.78%).
Total Closed Trades: 672.
Percent Profitable: 35.57%.
Profit Factor: 1.347.
Average Trade: +0.48 USDT (+0.48%).
Average # Bars in Trades: 13.
🔷 HOW TO USE
🔸 Adjust Settings:
The default values—MA1 (9) and MA2 (18) with EMA calculation—generally work well. However, you can increase these values, such as 20 and 40, to better identify stronger trends.
🔸 Choose a Symbol that Typically Trends:
Select an asset that tends to form clear trends. Keep in mind that the Strategy Tester results may show poor performance for certain assets, making them less suitable for sending signals to bots.
🔸 Experiment with Ratios:
Test different take profit and breakeven ratios to compare various scenarios—especially to observe how the strategy performs when only the trade is protected.
🔸This is an example of how protecting the trade works: once the price moves in favor of the position with a 1:1 risk-to-reward ratio, the stop loss is moved to the entry price. If the Slow MA surpasses this level, it will act as a trailing stop, aiming to follow the trend and maximize potential gains.
🔸In contrast, in this example, for the same trade, if we set a take profit at a 1:3 risk-to-reward ratio—which is generally considered a good risk-reward relationship—we can see how a significant portion of the upward move is left on the table.
🔸Results Review:
It is important to check the Max Drawdown. This value should ideally not exceed 10% of your capital. Consider adjusting the trade size to ensure this threshold is not surpassed.
Remember to include the correct values for commission and slippage according to the symbol and exchange where you are conducting the tests. Otherwise, the results will not be realistic.
If you are satisfied with the results, you may consider automating your trades. However, it is strongly recommended to use a small amount of capital or a demo account to test proper execution before committing real funds.
🔸Create alerts to trigger the DCA Bot:
Verify Messages: Ensure the message matches the one specified by the DCA Bot.
Multi-Pair Configuration: For multi-pair setups, enable the option to add the symbol in the correct format.
Signal Settings: Enable whether you want to receive long or short signals (Entry | TP | SL), copy and paste the the messages for the DCA Bots configured.
Alert Setup:
When creating an alert, set the condition to the indicator and choose "alert() function call only.
Enter any desired Alert Name.
Open the Notifications tab, enable Webhook URL, and paste the Webhook URL.

HTC peppermint_07 CCI w signal + s&r RSI
This CCI version enhances the traditional Commodity Channel Index (CCI) by integrating a dynamically calculated Relative Strength Index (RSI) that acts as support and resistance as shown in the screenshot, it can add as a confirmation to the divergence found in the CCI.
Key Features:
Enhanced CCI: The primary plot (black line but customizable) represents the standard CCI, providing insight into price momentum and potential overbought/oversold conditions.
Dynamic RSI Support/Resistance: The upper and lower bands (medium cyan line) are derived from a smoothed RSI, dynamically adjusting to the current market volatility. These bands serve as potential support and resistance levels for the CCI as additional confirmation for the divergence.
Overbought/Oversold Zones: The traditional overbought (+100) and oversold (-100) levels for CCI are marked with horizontal dotted lines.
Benefits:
Improved Entry/Exit Signals: Combining CCI with dynamic RSI support/resistance may offer more precise trading signals compared to using CCI alone.
Dynamic Adaptation: The RSI-based bands adapt to changing market conditions, potentially providing more relevant support and resistance levels.
Divergence Confirmation: dynamic s&r RSI adds confluence to potential trend reversals identified by the CCI.
Potential Usage:
Traders might use this indicator to:
Identify potential overbought/oversold conditions using the CCI and its relationship to the dynamic RSI bands.
Look for breakouts beyond the dynamic support/resistance levels as potential entry points.
Confirm potential trend reversals using RSI divergence (cyan and red label above divergence) signals.
Further Development Considerations:
Customizable Parameters: Allowing users to adjust the CCI length, RSI periods, and smoothing factors would enhance flexibility.
Alert Conditions: Adding alerts for breakouts, overbought/oversold conditions, and divergence signals would improve usability.
Backtesting: Thoroughly backtesting the indicator's performance across different assets and timeframes is essential before using it for live trading.

[3Commas] Alligator StrategyThe Alligator Strategy
🔷 What it does: This script implements the Alligator Strategy, a trend-following method created by Bill Williams. It uses three customizable moving averages (SMMAs or RMAs) "Jaws," "Teeth," and "Lips" to identify market trends and potential trade opportunities. Additionally, it includes built-in stop-loss and take-profit options for enhanced risk management.
🔷 Who is it for:
Trend Traders: Those who prefer trading in markets with clear directional movement.

Take Profit and Stop Loss:
Configurable as either percentage-based or dynamic.
Stop-loss levels adjust dynamically using the Alligator lines.
Fast exit logic moves the stop-loss closer to the price when trades are in profit.
3Commas Bot Compatibility: Designed for automated trading, allowing traders to configure and execute the strategy seamlessly.
🔷 Considerations Before Using the Indicator
🔸Why the Forward Offset: By shifting the averages forward, the Alligator helps traders focus on established trends while filtering out short-term market noise.
The standard configurations of 13-8, 8-5, and 5-3 were selected based on Bill Williams’ studies of market behavior. However, these values can be adjusted to suit different market conditions:
Volatile Markets: Faster settings (e.g., 10-6, 6-4, 3-2) may provide earlier signals.
Less Volatile Markets: Slower settings (e.g., 21-13, 13-8, 8-5) can help avoid noise and reduce false signals.
🔸Best Timeframes to Use: The Alligator can be applied across all timeframes, but certain timeframes offer better reliability.
Higher Timeframes (H4, D1, W1): Ideal for identifying significant trends and for swing or position trading.
Lower Timeframes: Not recommended due to increased noise but may work for scalping with additional confirmation tools.
🔸Disadvantages of the Alligator Strategy:
Exhausted Entry Levels: High buying levels or low selling levels can lead to momentum exhaustion and potential pullbacks.
False Signals in Ranges: Consolidating markets can produce unreliable signals.
Lagging Indicator: As it is based on moving averages, it may delay reacting to sudden price changes.
🔸Advantages of the Alligator Strategy:
Trend Focused: Simplifies the identification of trending markets.
Noise Reduction: Forward shifts and smoothed averages help filter out short-term price fluctuations.
Broad Applicability: Suitable for forex, crypto, stocks, and commodities.
🔸Important Considerations:
While the Alligator Strategy provides a systematic way to analyze markets, it does not guarantee successful outcomes. Results in trading depend on multiple factors, including market conditions, trader discipline, and risk management. Past performance of the strategy does not ensure future success, and traders should always approach the market with caution.
Risk Management: Define stop-loss levels, position size, and profit targets before entering any trade. Be prepared for the possibility of losses and ensure that your approach aligns with your overall trading plan.
🔷 STRATEGY PROPERTIES
Symbol: BINANCE:BTCUSDT (Spot).
Timeframe: 1D (Daily Timeframe).
Test Period: All historical data available.
Initial Capital: 10000 USDT.
Order Size per Trade: 1% of Capital, you can use a higher value e.g. 5%, be cautious that the Max Drawdown does not exceed 10%, as it would indicate a very risky trading approach.
Commission: Binance commission 0.1%, adjust according to the exchange being used, lower numbers will generate unrealistic results. By using low values e.g. 5%, it allows us to adapt over time and check the functioning of the strategy.
Slippage: 5 ticks, for pairs with low liquidity or very large orders, this number should be increased as the order may not be filled at the desired level.
Margin for Long and Short Positions: 100%.
Indicator Settings: Default Configuration.
Alligator: Source hl2 | Calculation RMA | Jaw 21-13, Teeth 13-8, Lips 8-5.
Strategy: Long & Short.
Max Stop Loss per Trade: 10% of Trade Size.
Exit trades on opposite signal: Enable.
Alligator Stop Loss: Enable.
Alligator Fast Exit: Enable.
🔷 STRATEGY RESULTS

🔷 HOW TO USE
🔸Adjust the Alligator Settings:
The default values generally work well: Source hl2 | Calculation RMA | Jaw 21-13, Teeth 13-8, Lips 8-5. However, if you want to use it on timeframes smaller than 4H (4 hours), consider increasing the values to better filter market noise.
Please review the "Indicator Settings" section for configuration.
🔸Choose a Symbol that Typically Trends:
Select an asset that tends to create trends. However, the Strategy Tester results may display poor performance, making it less suitable for sending signals to bots.
🔸Add Trend Filters:
You can enable trend filters like MA and SuperTrend. By default, these are disabled as they are often unnecessary, but you can experiment with their configuration to see if they optimize the strategy's results.
Please review the "Indicator Settings" section for configuration.
🔸Enable Stop Loss Levels:
Activate Stop Loss features, such as Stop Loss % or Alligator Stop Loss. If both are enabled, the one closest to the price during the trade will be applied.
Please review the "Indicator Settings" section for configuration.
🔸Enable Take Profit Levels:
Activate Take Profit options, such as Take Profit % or Alligator Fast Exit. If both are enabled, the one that triggers first will be executed.
Please review the "Indicator Settings" section for configuration.
This is an example with the default settings and how Alligator Stop Loss and Alligator Fast Exit are activated:
In this example, we additionally enable the Take Profit at 10%. We can observe that the Alligator Stop Loss is the active one since it is closer to the price. When the price moves 10% in favor or against the trade, the position is closed. Although the Alligator Fast Exit is enabled, it does not activate because the trades are closed beforehand.
🔸Results Review:
It is important to check the Max Drawdown. This value should ideally not exceed 10% of your capital. Consider adjusting the trade size to ensure this threshold is not surpassed.
Remember to include the correct values for commission and slippage according to the symbol and exchange where you are conducting the tests. Otherwise, the results will not be realistic.
If you are satisfied with the results, you may consider automating your trades. However, it is strongly recommended to use a small amount of capital or a demo account to test proper execution before committing real funds.

BTC 5 min SHBHilalimSB A Wedding Gift 🌙
What is HilalimSB🌙?
First of all, as mentioned in the title, HilalimSB is a wedding gift.
HilalimSB - Revealing the Secrets of the Trend
HilalimSB is a powerful indicator designed to help investors analyze market trends and optimize trading strategies. Designed to uncover the secrets at the heart of the trend, HilalimSB stands out with its unique features and impressive algorithm.
Hilalim Algorithm and Fixed ATR Value:
HilalimSB is equipped with a special algorithm called "Hilalim" to detect market trends. This algorithm can delve into the depths of price movements to determine the direction of the trend and provide users with the ability to predict future price movements. Additionally, HilalimSB uses its own fixed Average True Range (ATR) value. ATR is an indicator that measures price movement volatility and is often used to determine the strength of a trend. The fixed ATR value of HilalimSB has been tested over long periods and its reliability has been proven. This allows users to interpret the signals provided by the indicator more reliably.
ATR Calculation Steps
1.True Range Calculation:
+ The True Range (TR) is the greatest of the following three values:
1. Current high minus current low
2. Current high minus previous close (absolute value)
3. Current low minus previous close (absolute value)
2.Average True Range (ATR) Calculation:
-The initial ATR value is calculated as the average of the TR values over a specified period
(typically 14 periods).
-For subsequent periods, the ATR is calculated using the following formula:
ATRt=(ATRt−1×(n−1)+TRt)/n
Where:
+ ATRt is the ATR for the current period,
+ ATRt−1 is the ATR for the previous period,
+ TRt is the True Range for the current period,
+ n is the number of periods.
Pine Script to Calculate ATR with User-Defined Length and Multiplier
Here is the Pine Script code for calculating the ATR with user-defined X length and Y multiplier:
//@version=5
indicator("Custom ATR", overlay=false)
// User-defined inputs
X = input.int(14, minval=1, title="ATR Period (X)")
Y = input.float(1.0, title="ATR Multiplier (Y)")
// True Range calculation
TR1 = high - low
TR2 = math.abs(high - close )
TR3 = math.abs(low - close )
TR = math.max(TR1, math.max(TR2, TR3))
// ATR calculation
ATR = ta.rma(TR, X)
// Apply multiplier
customATR = ATR * Y
// Plot the ATR value
plot(customATR, title="Custom ATR", color=color.blue, linewidth=2)
This code can be added as a new Pine Script indicator in TradingView, allowing users to calculate and display the ATR on the chart according to their specified parameters.
HilalimSB's Distinction from Other ATR Indicators
HilalimSB emerges with its unique Average True Range (ATR) value, presenting itself to users. Equipped with a proprietary ATR algorithm, this indicator is released in a non-editable form for users. After meticulous testing across various instruments with predetermined period and multiplier values, it is made available for use.
ATR is acknowledged as a critical calculation tool in the financial sector. The ATR calculation process of HilalimSB is conducted as a result of various research efforts and concrete data-based computations. Therefore, the HilalimSB indicator is published with its proprietary ATR values, unavailable for modification.
The ATR period and multiplier values provided by HilalimSB constitute the fundamental logic of a trading strategy. This unique feature aids investors in making informed decisions.

Strong Signals and Buy/Sell Indicators:
After completing test operations, HilalimSB produces data at various time intervals. However, we would like to emphasize to users that based on our studies, it provides the best signals in 1-hour chart data. HilalimSB produces strong signals to identify trend reversals. Buy or sell points are clearly indicated, allowing users to develop and implement trading strategies based on these signals.
For example, let's imagine you wanted to open a position on BTC on 2023.11.02. You are aware that you need to calculate which of the buying or selling transactions would be more profitable. You need support from various indicators to open a position. Based on the analysis and calculations it has made from the data it contains, HilalimSB would have detected that the graph is more suitable for a selling position, and by producing a sell signal at the most ideal selling point at 08:00 on 2023.11.02 (UTC+3 Istanbul), it would have informed you of the direction the graph would follow, allowing you to benefit positively from a 2.56% decline.
Technology and Innovation:
HilalimSB aims to enhance the trading experience using the latest technology. With its innovative approach, it enables users to discover market opportunities and support their decisions. Thus, investors can make more informed and successful trades. Real-Time Data Analysis: HilalimSB analyzes market data in real-time and identifies updated trends instantly.

Financial Ratio Analysis (with / without Competitors)What Is Financial Ratio Analysis?
Financial Ratio Analysis is a quantitative technique used to assess a company's liquidity, operational efficiency, and profitability by examining its financial statements, including the balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement. It provides valuable insights into a company's performance over time and allows for comparisons with other companies within the same industry or sector.
What Are the Uses of Financial Ratio Analysis?
Analysis of financial ratios serves two main purposes:
1. Track company performance
Determining individual financial ratios per period and tracking the change in their values over time is done to spot trends that may be developing in a company.
Current Ratio for Adobe Inc. NASDAQ:ADBE
2. Make comparative judgments regarding company performance
Comparing financial ratios with those of major competitors enables the identification of whether a company is performing better or worse than the industry average. This comparative analysis aids in understanding the company's competitive position and potential areas for improvement.
For comparison, the script would automatically select a maximum of 5 competitors from the US markets based on the ticker's industry. This ensures a relevant comparison with industry peers to evaluate performance and assess competitive positioning.
To compare the Free Cash Flow Margin of Apple Inc. NASDAQ:AAPL with its competitors.
To compare the Free Cash Flow Margin of Apple Inc. NASDAQ:AAPL with its competitors’ average.
Customized competitors list
To customize your own competitors list, you can specify the companies or tickers you want to include in the comparison. This allows for a tailored analysis based on your specific preferences and industry knowledge.
Example:
To compare PayPal NASDAQ:PYPL with NASDAQ:MELI , NASDAQ:DLO , and NYSE:PAY , users can input the following text into the competitors list:
NASDAQ:MELI,NASDAQ:DLO,NASDAQ:PYPL,NYSE:PAY;
This will ensure that the comparison includes these specific companies alongside PayPal.
Financial ratios are grouped into the following categories:
Liquidity ratios
Leverage ratios
Efficiency ratios
Profitability ratios
Market value ratios
Liquidity Ratios
Liquidity ratios are financial ratios that measure a company’s ability to repay both short-term and long-term obligations.
Current Ratio measures a company’s ability to pay off short-term liabilities with current assets:
Current ratio = Total current assets / Total current liabilities
Cash To Debt Ratio measures a company’s ability to pay off short-term liabilities with cash and cash equivalents. A high ratio indicates a company can pay off its debt and remain solvent into the foreseeable future. In addition, it also means that if necessary, the company can take on a larger amount of debt because it has the cash to support that.
Cash to debt ratio = Cash and Short Term Investments / Total debt
Leverage Financial Ratios
Leverage ratios measure the amount of capital that comes from debt. In other words, leverage financial ratios are used to evaluate a company’s debt levels.
Debt To Assets Ratio measures the relative amount of a company’s assets that are provided from debt. This indicator is a measure of assets that are growing at the expense of debt. Because of this, you can see how a company acquired its assets over time. It can be used to assess a company's ability to meet its current debt obligations.
Debt to assets ratio = Total debt / Total assets
Debt To Equity Ratio calculates the weight of total debt and financial liabilities against shareholders’ equity:
Debt to equity ratio = Total liabilities / Shareholder’s equity
Interest Coverage Ratio shows how easily a company can pay its interest expenses:
Interest coverage ratio = Operating income / Interest expense
Efficiency Ratios
Efficiency ratios, also known as activity financial ratios, are used to measure how well a company is utilizing its assets and resources.
Research & Development (R&D) Expense to Revenue Ratio measures the percentage of sales that is allocated to R&D expenditures.
R&D to revenue ratio = Research and development expense / Total revenue * 100%
Asset Turnover Ratio measures a company’s ability to generate sales from assets. The higher it is, the more efficient the company is, since higher ratios mean that the company generates more income per dollar of assets. Conversely, if the company has a low Asset turnover, this indicates that it is inefficiently using its assets.
Asset turnover ratio = Revenue / Average total assets for two periods
Inventory Turnover shows how quickly a company sells its stock. A low turnover can mean weak sales, while a high one can mean good sales or insufficient stock. Inventory turnover is an important indicator of a company's performance.
Inventory turnover = Cost of goods sold / Total inventories
Days Sales Outstanding measures the average number of days it takes for a company to collect cash from credit purchases.
Days sales outstanding = Average Accounts Receivable / Revenue x 365 Days
Days Inventory shows the time in days that is spent turning a company's inventory into sales. This metric is an indicator of a company's inventory management. Low values are preferred for Days Inventory, which means items are selling faster and there is a quick turnaround. Large values indicate that a company has invested too much in stocks and does not have time to sell them.
Days inventory = Average inventories / Cost of goods sold * Days in period
Profitability Ratios
Profitability ratios measure a company’s ability to generate income relative to revenue, balance sheet assets, operating costs, and equity.
Gross Margin compares the gross profit of a company to its net sales to show how much profit a company makes after paying its cost of goods sold:
Gross margin % = Gross income / Total revenue * 100
Operating Margin , sometimes known as the return on sales ratio, compares the operating income of a company to its net sales to determine operating efficiency:
Operating margin = Operating income / Revenue * 100%
Free Cash Flow Margin is a profitability ratio that compares a company's free cash flow to its revenue to understand the proportion of revenue that becomes free cash flow. The higher the percentage, the more cash is available from sales. A company that shows an increasing cash flow margin from year to year is certainly getting stronger with time. This is a good indicator of its probability for long-term success.
Free cash flow margin = Free Cash Flow / Total Revenue
Return On Assets measures how efficiently a company is using its assets to generate profit. A high ROA indicates that a company successfully converts invested money into income.
Return on assets = Net income before discontinued operations / Total average assets
Return On Equity measures how efficiently a company is using its equity to generate profit:
Return on equity = Net income / Shareholder’s equity
Revenue Growth refers to the increase in a company’s total revenue or income over a specific period
Revenue growth = (Current period revenue - previous period revenue) / Previous period revenue * 100%
Earnings Per Share Growth illustrates the growth of earnings per share over time.
Earnings per share growth = ( Current period EPS - previous period EPS ) / Previous period EPS * 100%
Operating Cash Flow Growth is the long term rate of growth of operating cash, the money that is actually coming into the bank from business operations.
Operating cash flow growth = ( Current period operating cash flow - previous period operating cash flow) / Previous period operating cash flow* 100%
Market Value Ratios
Market value ratios are used to evaluate the share price of a company’s stock.
Book Value Per Share calculates the per-share value of a company based on the equity available to shareholders. In case of the company liquidation, the book value per share shows the monetary value remaining for common shareholders after all assets are sold and all debt is paid. If a company’s Book value per share is higher than a market price of its share, then the stock may be considered undervalued.
Book value per share = Total common equity / Total common shares outstanding
Dividend Yield measures the amount of dividends attributed to shareholders relative to the market value per share:
Dividend yield = Dividends TTM for the primary issue excluding special dividends / Price of the primary issue
Diluted Earnings per Share (Diluted EPS)
EPS stands for earnings per share. Investors use EPS to measure how much money a company makes for every outstanding share the company has. Diluted EPS is slightly different in that it measures the earnings per share for a company if all convertible securities (such as preferred stocks, convertible debt instruments, stock options and warrants) were used to calculate the metric.
GKD-V Stiffness [Loxx]The Giga Kaleidoscope GKD-V Stiffness is a Volume/Volatility module included in Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System."
█ GKD-V Stiffness
The stiffness indicator quantifies the market's momentum by analyzing the relationship between price movements and volatility over a specific time frame. It employs a moving average to smooth out price data, providing a baseline for trend assessment. The key element in this calculation is the incorporation of a volatility factor, typically standard deviation, which adjusts the moving average to account for market volatility. This adjusted moving average creates a benchmark that the current price must surpass to signal significant momentum.
By comparing the current price to this volatility-adjusted moving average, the stiffness indicator determines the strength of the market's trend. A higher stiffness value, surpassing a predefined threshold, indicates a strong and potentially profitable trend, either upward or downward, suggesting opportunities for strategic trading positions. Conversely, a stiffness value below the threshold signifies insufficient momentum, advising traders to refrain from entering the market due to the high risk of unpredictability. This method provides a systematic approach to evaluate market trends, enabling traders to make decisions based on the robustness of price movements relative to historical volatility.
█ Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System
Core components of an NNFX algorithmic trading strategy
The NNFX algorithm is built on the principles of trend, momentum, and volatility. There are six core components in the NNFX trading algorithm:
1. Volatility - price volatility; e.g., Average True Range, True Range Double, Close-to-Close, etc.
2. Baseline - a moving average to identify price trend
3. Confirmation 1 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
4. Confirmation 2 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
5. Continuation - a technical indicator used to identify trends
6. Volatility/Volume - a technical indicator used to identify volatility/volume breakouts/breakdown
7. Exit - a technical indicator used to determine when a trend is exhausted
8. Metamorphosis - a technical indicator that produces a compound signal from the combination of other GKD indicators*
*(not part of the NNFX algorithm)
What is Volatility in the NNFX trading system?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, ATR (Average True Range) is typically used to measure the volatility of an asset. It is used as a part of the system to help determine the appropriate stop loss and take profit levels for a trade. ATR is calculated by taking the average of the true range values over a specified period.
True range is calculated as the maximum of the following values:
-Current high minus the current low
-Absolute value of the current high minus the previous close
-Absolute value of the current low minus the previous close
ATR is a dynamic indicator that changes with changes in volatility. As volatility increases, the value of ATR increases, and as volatility decreases, the value of ATR decreases. By using ATR in NNFX system, traders can adjust their stop loss and take profit levels according to the volatility of the asset being traded. This helps to ensure that the trade is given enough room to move, while also minimizing potential losses.
Other types of volatility include True Range Double (TRD), Close-to-Close, and Garman-Klass
What is a Baseline indicator?
The baseline is essentially a moving average, and is used to determine the overall direction of the market.
The baseline in the NNFX system is used to filter out trades that are not in line with the long-term trend of the market. The baseline is plotted on the chart along with other indicators, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR).
Trades are only taken when the price is in the same direction as the baseline. For example, if the baseline is sloping upwards, only long trades are taken, and if the baseline is sloping downwards, only short trades are taken. This approach helps to ensure that trades are in line with the overall trend of the market, and reduces the risk of entering trades that are likely to fail.
By using a baseline in the NNFX system, traders can have a clear reference point for determining the overall trend of the market, and can make more informed trading decisions. The baseline helps to filter out noise and false signals, and ensures that trades are taken in the direction of the long-term trend.
What is a Confirmation indicator?
Confirmation indicators are technical indicators that are used to confirm the signals generated by primary indicators. Primary indicators are the core indicators used in the NNFX system, such as the Average True Range (ATR), the Moving Average (MA), and the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
The purpose of the confirmation indicators is to reduce false signals and improve the accuracy of the trading system. They are designed to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators by providing additional information about the strength and direction of the trend.
Some examples of confirmation indicators that may be used in the NNFX system include the Bollinger Bands, the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence), and the MACD Oscillator. These indicators can provide information about the volatility, momentum, and trend strength of the market, and can be used to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators.
In the NNFX system, confirmation indicators are used in combination with primary indicators and other filters to create a trading system that is robust and reliable. By using multiple indicators to confirm trading signals, the system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of the trades.
What is a Continuation indicator?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, a continuation indicator is a technical indicator that is used to confirm a current trend and predict that the trend is likely to continue in the same direction. A continuation indicator is typically used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as a baseline indicator, to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
What is a Volatility/Volume indicator?
Volume indicators, such as the On Balance Volume (OBV), the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), or the Volume Price Trend (VPT), are used to measure the amount of buying and selling activity in a market. They are based on the trading volume of the market, and can provide information about the strength of the trend. In the NNFX system, volume indicators are used to confirm trading signals generated by the Moving Average and the Relative Strength Index. Volatility indicators include Average Direction Index, Waddah Attar, and Volatility Ratio. In the NNFX trading system, volatility is a proxy for volume and vice versa.
By using volume indicators as confirmation tools, the NNFX trading system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of trades. These indicators can provide additional information about the market that is not captured by the primary indicators, and can help traders to make more informed trading decisions. In addition, volume indicators can be used to identify potential changes in market trends and to confirm the strength of price movements.
What is an Exit indicator?
The exit indicator is used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR), to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
The exit indicator in the NNFX system can be any technical indicator that is deemed effective at identifying optimal exit points. Examples of exit indicators that are commonly used include the Parabolic SAR, and the Average Directional Index (ADX).
The purpose of the exit indicator is to identify when a trend is likely to reverse or when the market conditions have changed, signaling the need to exit a trade. By using an exit indicator, traders can manage their risk and prevent significant losses.
In the NNFX system, the exit indicator is used in conjunction with a stop loss and a take profit order to maximize profits and minimize losses. The stop loss order is used to limit the amount of loss that can be incurred if the trade goes against the trader, while the take profit order is used to lock in profits when the trade is moving in the trader's favor.
Overall, the use of an exit indicator in the NNFX trading system is an important component of a comprehensive trading strategy. It allows traders to manage their risk effectively and improve the profitability of their trades by exiting at the right time.
What is an Metamorphosis indicator?
The concept of a metamorphosis indicator involves the integration of two or more GKD indicators to generate a compound signal. This is achieved by evaluating the accuracy of each indicator and selecting the signal from the indicator with the highest accuracy. As an illustration, let's consider a scenario where we calculate the accuracy of 10 indicators and choose the signal from the indicator that demonstrates the highest accuracy.
The resulting output from the metamorphosis indicator can then be utilized in a GKD-BT backtest by occupying a slot that aligns with the purpose of the metamorphosis indicator. The slot can be a GKD-B, GKD-C, or GKD-E slot, depending on the specific requirements and objectives of the indicator. This allows for seamless integration and utilization of the compound signal within the GKD-BT framework.
How does Loxx's GKD (Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System) implement the NNFX algorithm outlined above?
Loxx's GKD v2.0 system has five types of modules (indicators/strategies). These modules are:
1. GKD-BT - Backtesting module (Volatility, Number 1 in the NNFX algorithm)
2. GKD-B - Baseline module (Baseline and Volatility/Volume, Numbers 1 and 2 in the NNFX algorithm)
3. GKD-C - Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation module (Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation, Numbers 3, 4, and 5 in the NNFX algorithm)
4. GKD-V - Volatility/Volume module (Confirmation 1/2, Number 6 in the NNFX algorithm)
5. GKD-E - Exit module (Exit, Number 7 in the NNFX algorithm)
6. GKD-M - Metamorphosis module (Metamorphosis, Number 8 in the NNFX algorithm, but not part of the NNFX algorithm)
(additional module types will added in future releases)
Each module interacts with every module by passing data to A backtest module wherein the various components of the GKD system are combined to create a trading signal.
That is, the Baseline indicator passes its data to Volatility/Volume. The Volatility/Volume indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 1 indicator. The Confirmation 1 indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 2 indicator. The Confirmation 2 indicator passes its values to the Continuation indicator. The Continuation indicator passes its values to the Exit indicator, and finally, the Exit indicator passes its values to the Backtest strategy.
This chaining of indicators requires that each module conform to Loxx's GKD protocol, therefore allowing for the testing of every possible combination of technical indicators that make up the six components of the NNFX algorithm.
What does the application of the GKD trading system look like?
Example trading system:
Backtest: Multi-Ticker CC Backtest
Baseline: Hull Moving Average
Volatility/Volume: Hurst Exponent
Confirmation 1: Advance Trend Pressure as shown on the chart above
Confirmation 2: uf2018
Continuation: Coppock Curve
Exit: Rex Oscillator
Metamorphosis: Baseline Optimizer
Each GKD indicator is denoted with a module identifier of either: GKD-BT, GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-V, GKD-M, or GKD-E. This allows traders to understand to which module each indicator belongs and where each indicator fits into the GKD system.

█ MEAN REVERSION FILTERING SETTINGS
Mean Reversion Filtering Settings are designed to align trading strategies during accumulation market conditions. They set a distance from a line to permit trading. The purpose is to ensure that when the price strays too far from the mean line, it should revert back. In accumulation markets, price movements are generally horizontal. In such situations, mean reversion will operate like a grid, enabling profitable trades with low drawdown. However, when the market structure begins to trend, mean reversion filters may not be as profitable as in accumulation markets. For instance, let's say the price is rising and we are shorting the market until it reaches the mean price line. As the price goes up and the mean also rises, we will end up closing the position at a higher price, rendering the mean reversion system non-profitable. Therefore, consider this filter wisely; greater distances might work better in trending markets.

Fundamental Analysis [TrendX_]__________xXx__________ INTRODUCTION __________xXx__________
Fundamental Analysis indicator employs a two-pronged approach to estimate the fair value of a security. This utilizes both relative valuation and intrinsic valuation methods, aiming to achieve a comprehensive understanding of the company's worth.
__________xXx__________ FEATURES AND USAGES __________xXx__________
1 - RELATIVE VALUATION:
Relative valuation takes a company's average financial ratios over a specific number of periods into account.
Price-to-Earnings Ratio (PE Ratio): This metric compares the company's current stock price to its earnings per share. A higher PE ratio indicates investors are willing to pay more for each dollar of earnings, potentially suggesting a growth expectation.
Price-to-Book Ratio (PB Ratio): This metric compares the company's current stock price to its book value per share. A higher PB ratio suggests the market values the company's assets more highly than their accounting book value.
Modified-PE-PB-Growth: This is the modified version for the PE and PB forward. Apply the company's average historical ROE growth rate to PE ratio. Similarly, apply the company's projected ROA growth rate to the industry average PB ratio to arrive at an adjusted PB ratio.
Enterprise Value (EV)/Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (EBITDA) Multiple: This metric compares the company's enterprise value (market capitalization + debt - cash) to its EBITDA. It provides a valuation measure that considers the company's capital structure.
2 - INTRINSIC VALUATION:
Intrinsic valuation attempts to estimate the inherent value of a company based on its future cash flow generation potential. This approach focuses on the company's long-term fundamentals rather than its current market price.
Discounted Cash Flow (DCF): This method discounts the company's projected future free cash flows to their present value. It requires forecasting future cash flows, a discount rate, and a terminal growth rate. The present value of these future cash flows represents the company's intrinsic value.
Dividend Discount Model (DDM): This method assumes the company's value is based on its ability to distribute future dividends to shareholders. It discounts the company's expected future dividends to their present value, providing another estimate of intrinsic value.
Graham Number: Developed by Benjamin Graham, this method utilizes a formula based on a company's earnings per share and book value per share to estimate its intrinsic value. The number 22.5, embedded within this formula, serves as a normalization factor, embodying an ‘ideal’ PE of 15 and PB of 1.5. This approach provides a conservative estimate of a company’s intrinsic value, offering a safety margin for investors.
Net-Nets: Net-Nets refer to micro-to-small companies trading at a price less than 67% of their net current asset value, which is calculated by subtracting current liabilities from current assets. This conservative approach, deeply rooted in the principles of value investing, essentially implies that these companies are undervalued to the extent that their market price is less than their liquidation value.
*** The color of each valuation toolkit’s background is determined UNDERVALUE (above current price) in Turquoise Green color and OVERVALUE (below acceptable rate) in Pink color.
3 - FINANCIAL METRICS
The financial metrics will provide a holistic view of company's financial health, efficiency, risk profile, and growth prospects
Efficiency Metrics:
Net Margin: This metric measures the percentage of each dollar of revenue remaining as profit after accounting for all operating expenses. A higher net margin indicates a company's efficiency in converting sales into profit.
Dividend Yield: This metric represents the annual dividend payment per share divided by the current stock price. It reflects the portion of a company's earnings distributed to shareholders as dividends. A higher dividend yield suggests a focus on shareholder returns.
Fraud Detection Metrics:
Beneish M-score (M-score): This metric is a statistical model used to identify potential accounting manipulations. A higher M-score indicates a greater likelihood of fraudulent activity. It's crucial to analyze the M-score along with other financial information.
Profitability and Growth Metrics:
Piotroski F-score (F-score): This metric assesses a company's financial health and profitability based on nine criteria. A higher F-score suggests a more robust and potentially higher-growth company.
Quick Ratio: This metric measures a company's ability to meet its short-term obligations (due within a year) using its most liquid assets (cash and equivalents, marketable securities, and accounts receivable). A higher quick ratio indicates a stronger short-term liquidity position.
Inventory Ratio: This metric measures how long it takes a company to sell its inventory on average. A lower inventory ratio suggests efficient inventory management and potentially lower holding costs.
Risk Metrics:
Risk-Free Rate (Risk-Free): This metric represents the theoretical rate of return on a risk-free investment, often approximated by the 10-year Treasury Constant Maturity Rate. It serves as a benchmark for evaluating the return required for riskier assets like stocks.
Beta: This metric measures a stock's volatility relative to the overall market (often represented by its market index). A beta of 1 indicates the stock's price movement mirrors the market. A beta greater than 1 suggests the stock is more volatile than the market, and vice versa.
Growth Metrics:
Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM): This model estimates the expected return on a stock based on its beta, the risk-free rate, and the market risk premium. CAPM helps determine if a stock is potentially overvalued or undervalued.
Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC): This metric represents the average cost of capital a company uses to finance its operations (equity and debt). A lower WACC suggests a company can access capital at a cheaper rate, potentially leading to higher profitability.
Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR): This metric calculates the average annual growth rate of a stock price over a specific period. It provides an indication of the historical price appreciation.
Additional:
Sustainable Growth Rate (Growth const.): This metric estimates the maximum long-term growth rate a company can sustain based on its internal resources (retained earnings) and industry growth.
Value at Risk (VaR): This metric estimates the maximum potential loss a stock price might experience over a given timeframe with a certain confidence level. It helps assess the downside risk associated with an investment.
*** The color of each metric’s background is determined above acceptable rate in Turquoise Green color and below acceptable rate in Pink color
__________xXx__________ CONCLUSION__________xXx__________
Fundamental analysis plays a critical role in empowering both investors and traders to navigate the dynamic stock markets. By delving deeper into a company's underlying financial health, future prospects, and competitive landscape, this approach fosters informed decision-making that leads to risk reduction and profit optimization. The Fundamental Analysis can serve as a cornerstone for investors and traders alike, offering a myriad of benefits.
For investors, it is instrumental in risk reduction, as it enables the assessment of a company’s fair value through financial statements, competitive advantages, and growth potential. This critical evaluation aids in avoiding overvalued stocks and spotting undervalued opportunities. Moreover, it fosters a long-term focus, steering investors towards decisions that reflect a company’s long-term prospects, thus supporting a buy-and-hold strategy that resonates with enduring investment objectives. Additionally, a profound comprehension of a company’s fundamentals bolsters investor confidence, ensuring that investment choices are grounded in solid data rather than speculative market noise.
Traders, on the other hand, can leverage fundamental analysis to pinpoint short-term opportunities by staying abreast of a company’s imminent catalysts such as financial health, efficiency, risk profile, or growth prospects. This knowledge allows them to anticipate market movements and seize fleeting chances for profit. It also provides informed insights for establishing entry and exit points, identifying companies poised for robust growth or those facing potential downturns, which is crucial for strategizing trades, including short selling. Importantly, by concentrating on fundamental data, traders can mitigate emotional decision-making, fostering a disciplined approach to trading that curtails the risks associated with impulsive, emotion-driven errors.
