PTS Pi-Osc V1
The PTS - Pi-Osc know as Precision Index Oscillator by Roger Medcalf - Precision Trading Systems.
How does the Pi-Osc work?
Pi-Osc is a highly sophisticated consensus type indicator comprising of many different component signals.
A technical traders tool that measures everything from divergences to probabilities all blended into one simple to use product.
The buy and selling opportunities are highlighted by the moves away from + or - 3.14.
Simple to use for all levels of experience from beginner to expert and offers a unique edge in terms of precision.
The components that go into computations are identified below.
Money flow index provides a simple snapshot of how sold out or pumped up a stock or future really is and when measured in three different time frames gives a slick consensus view of money flow.
Relative strength index (RSI) still the No1 most popular indicator in use today as its power to identify overbought and oversold qualities in sideways markets is exceptional.
Its poor performance in trends is greatly reduced when seamlessly integrated with the PI-Osc algorithm.
Demand index being one of the designers favourite indicators for measuring the future direction caused by a large volume trade is incorporated here as well as its exceptional efficiency as a divergence indicator.
James Sibbet's creation provides an additional stellar incisive cutting accuracy to the Pi-Osc. Sibbets creation is one of the only indicators with true predictive qualities as a leading indicator.
Divergences. Pi-Osc measures divergences which occur over many look back periods from two different indicators, realising that divergences are often spurious in their reliability, the indicator only factors 4% of the total indicator
reading from these. Paradoxically the buy and sell zones have to have at least one observation of a divergence to trigger a signal.
Volume is always a factor that precedes a price change, as stock prices cannot move without a real money value being assigned to it either as a recent trade or a bid-offer order being placed.
The designer's understanding of volume patterns is a very useful addition incorporated into the Pi-Osc indicators unique conception.
Momentum frequently decelerates prior to market turning points and PI-osc is monitoring several timeframes of smoothed momentum samples in its calculations.
But unlike a conventional rate of change or momentum indicator the Pi-Osc indicator scores a neutral reading when momentum is rising or falling fast, and a reading is only factored into the output when momentum is reducing, thus
indicating a higher probability of success.
Probability is another feature of this algorithm.
Although rarely used in industry standard oscillators, the designer has added a standard deviation (2.9) factor into this indicator as the more usual 2 standard deviations used in Bollinger bands is just not reliable enough to bet hard earned cash on.
Normally distributed price sets have a 99.9% containment within 3.3 standard deviations, so when this is breached the Pi-Osc adds or deducts a further value to its output number.
Stochastics have similar attributes to RSI oscillators and have contributed a factor into PI-osc due to their smooth and reliable ability to identify buying and selling points in non trending markets.
Price patterns. Generally the industry standard oscillators just use the closing price to calculate their values, and although some indicators such as the stochastic use the high and low in their mathematics, few oscillators are actually programmed to respond to unique candlestick chart set ups.
PI-osc is setting the standard with its intelligent programming to recognise when the current chart pattern is shouting buy signals. Several of the more reliable patterns are factored into the algorithm.
When all the maths is done, Pi-Osc does an exceptional job of determining true buying and selling points.
Basically the trading interpretation is made very simple for you, as the buy and sell zones are so logically determined, not by one factor but from a large consensus "vote" from more than one different computation.
The benefits of this indicator are that it saves valuable time in "confirming technical analysis signals" and all trades know time is precious as large price changes can be missed in seconds while checking other confirming factors.
It takes the hard work out of it, and lets your computer do the brain work.
Ideally this indicator is best as an entry signal, and exits are best done with a trailing stop which has a logical trend following exit, as its quite rare that the Pi-Osc will run right to the other extreme and issue a reverse signal.
Precision Index Oscillator has now got a new rule as a result of the gradual rise in market volatility.
Apart from the other well known main rules to wait for the bounce away from Pi and trade in the direction of the major trend, the new rule is to experiment to find the best historical timeframe.
In the old days it would fire up very nicely on a 10 minute chart of most things, and still does (sometimes) but the futures markets and the very volatile cryptocurrencies now go way out of the old extremities in terms of deviations from the norm.
So it is essential to know what the market volatility is capable of on each instrument.
The point being made here is that using this on very short term time frames is not as safe as used to be.
Institutions enjoy working together to drive the prices into areas where most traders did not expect them to go, taking out all the stops and getting a better price for themselves.
So the first task after ordering this product is to create multiple minute chart settings in your Trading View platform and then click through them and there you will find hopefully find the holy grail, just like finding the best guitar,
amplifier and effects pedal settings for creating your own personalized type of music, finding the best timeframe to use you Pi-Osc is the essential work.
The holy grail usually turns out to be nothing more complex than a stop watch:
If the best setting turns out to be 15 minutes or 30 seconds on a volatile market or a 4 hours minute chart on a very volatile market then so be it.
Who cares? Does it matter?
All that matters is you find the way to get to the best results from this product.
Precision Index Oscillator has eight rules
1. Trade in the direction of the major trend
2. Find the time frame that has worked best in historical testing ( This can be a different setting for each market )
3. ALWAYS use a stop loss
4. Wait for the bounce away from Pi
5. Wait for the bounce away from Pi
6 Wait for the bounce away from Pi
7 Wait for the bounce away from Pi
8. Remember the other seven rules.
Precision Index Oscillator clarification of rules 3 to 7
This indicator can stay locked at the extreme Pi level for many bars, days, hours, minutes, seconds etc.
Taking the signal before the bounce comes is like the well known phrase "catching the falling knife".
Taking the signal before the bounce is a "Pi-Crime" and is a bad idea. Ignoring this point will likely result in losses
As Ed Seykota puts it in his usual amusing style, the problem with catching falling knives is that there are more knives than we have fingers.
He is referring to a market sell off rather than a sell off in one market.
When everything is crashing and we buy all of the crashing things at once, yes you guessed it: A painful day for the fingers!
Suggested settings for various lengths:
There are no settings to change. The beauty of Pi-Osc is there are no settings to be changed.
Your testing of "Pi signal qualifications" is confined only to selecting a time frame which appears to have offered good Pi-trades in the past.
This does not guarantee future signals will be good, and this is why risk control is essential.
Of course it is smart to experiement with different time periods of chart.
Execution of trades:
Exercise caution with this product.
Risk control is essential and risking more than 1% to 1.5% of your capital from entry price to stop would NOT be advised:
As with hunting, firing out lots of small trades in a shot gun approach will lead to better results than gambling all on the first signal you see.
There is much more chance of hitting a bird with a shot gun than a canon and the ammunition is much cheaper.
Always always use a stop loss. Something like 3 to 7 times a fifty period average true range for example.
Whilst it is often possible that a Pi-bounce appears exactly at the precise high or low of the week and could be the only one you see it is risky just to pile into it instantly as some markets produce several failed signals which continue to move in the same direction.
The safest and least risky method is to wait for the trend to change after the Pi-bounce. This is subjective to your own definition of how to measure the trend as "changing" but I would suggest waiting for a 8-20 period Exponential average to turn around before entering a trade.
Once the trade is entered you can implement a trailing stop to allow maximum potential gains and if your style is one of wanting to take quick profits then it is wise to take only some partial profits and give the move a chance to go somewhere and exit the remainder when the trend changes.
If the move was picked up near the absolute top or bottom it could be a large mistake to bail out of all of it early.
Market selection is important:
Avoid markets in endless smooth trends. These are best trading with trend following products ( Pi-Osc is not a trend following product )
Look for a choppy up or down trend or sideways market with some cycle qualities to it.
Best results are on liquid markets, you can observe the past signals and often history repeats with the good previous signals tending to indicate that future signals may also be good. (This is not certain of course)
This is also true of a market showing several historically bad signals which may be leading to more bad signals.
If the past performance of this indicator is poor on the market you are viewing, then move to another market until one is found where the readings show good price action after the signals in historical data.
Time frames:
This product can be applied to any time frame of market but be aware as is stated above, the slower time frames yield more valid signals and shorter time frames lead to more randomness and noise ridden plots of lower significance.
That said, it provides a valid reason to enter a trade and can give good results providing good stops and risk control are used. I have seen plenty of valid signals on 30 second charts right up to weekly charts.
The reliability of short term intra day time frames is usually lower than weekly or daily time frames. As 10 minute time frame is more reliable than a 30 second chart.
Please take this into consideration, try slowing down the impulses to go fast.
I am now accepting payments in USD or CHF for this product
This is not because I expect a US Dollar collapse but as a precaution to spread currency risk over different classes.
As FX rates vary substantially you can find the option that is cheaper than the other and it is fine to do that and choose the cheaper payment option.
Thanks for reading and I hope you do well with Pi-Osc on Trading View, just remember all the eight rules. You do remember them don't you?

[SPOILED]SuperTrench - ETH Super ScalperHi Traders,
I'm republishing this script as I finally polished it to perfection IMO. The script uses 5 coding sections: entry, trend filter, pivot filter, take profit, and stop loss. The script mainly uses trailing as take profit; this is probably the easiest way to make a profitable scalper strategy.
Backtest capital is set to 1000 USDT, 35% equity, 0.04% commission, limited backtest date from Jan 2022 to now, backtested on ETH/USDT prep contracts 15m timeframe, result as shown below.
It looks unreal right? Hell no, I actually tested this strategy on Binance from Dec 06 to Dec 10. I got 8.29% return with 4x leverage, 50% equity setup; 75% win rate,1.58 profit factor, with 4.3% max drawdown, it is amazingly close to the backtest result.
User Manual
Entry >>> Stoch RSI:
I added 5 MA types to the Stoch RSI which is HMA/VWMA/WMA/EMA/SMA, HMA with Length setting of 5, 8 seems to be most efficient, VWMA and WMA with 8, 13 will generate less entry signals but with less entry risks.
Entry >>> R Style:
It based on price action, with candlestick makes a U turn, after 2nd candlestick confirmed, it generates entry signal, this will give you some extra entries, better leave it enabled.
Entry >>> Price Step:
This probably is the core feature of this strategy; also my secret ingredient to making this strategy this efficient. It is recommended to enable step 1-5, more steps basically means more entries, but they are not necessarily profitable.
Trend Filter >>> Price Step:
I couldn't tell you much details about how this indicator works, but it is a reliable indicator, based on price action, and I got some ideas from Demark9 indicator. The bigger the level, the stronger the filter is, please note that if 'Price Step Entries' less than Price Step Trend, entries will be ignored.
Pivot Filter >>> RSI Pivot & Pinbar Pivot:
RSI Pivot detects if the RSI signal line making U turn in certain condition, Pinbar detection combines R Style entry when price action U turn took place, these 2 pivot filter will close the trade once it is counter trend, so it better enable and leave it as is.
Trend Filter >>> Trend Magic:
Trend Magic uses CCI and ATR to calculate trend status, green means uptrend, red means downtrend, pretty straight forward, the best value for this indicator would be, 21, 34, 55, 89.
Trend Filter >>> Alpha:
This filter combines R style pivot, price step, EMA all together to detects consolidation area, because EMA was involved, so the best look back period would be around 15-35, it is best to use default value IMO, in another hands, if you need stronger filter, feel free to use 10, 18, 20, 25, 30, 35, make sure look back period should increase or decrease by 5 every time.
Take Profit and Stop Loss:
The default value for tp is set to 0.4%, but I also give you option to switch to ATR TP; you can adjust in the ATR multiplier, default ATR trailing stop loss uses 1 ATR, but you can adjust it for better drawdown tolerance. Fixed ATR SL is also given when fixed ATR is enabled. There will be a failsafe SL default set to 1% if price moves counter direction of opened position, it will close trade no matter what happens.
Enjoy :)
Mean reversal QFL v3My aim is to make the bots trade as you would trading QFL manually and “by the book” or at least to my experience and understanding from the material out there of how you should plan a QFL trade.
Im absolutely not a pro trader, I have made my share of costly mistakes trying to be clever or Beeing impatient resulting in painful losses. QFL is we’re I’ve had consistently good results tough.
Is this where I have to say I’m not a financial advisor and all that? Well I’m not. As always Do your own research and backtest, backtest, backtest.
First: I believe no bot strategy are set and forget, while they can run unattended 80-90% of the time you're always going to find yourself in a situation where you will have to manually handle a bad deal. It would also make sense to be somewhat involved in the really good trades making the most out of them. That’s why understanding the strategy the bot Is using is really important, hence why I prefer QFL. It's an easy concept to understand, and proved to be a safe way of making steady profit in pretty much all market conditions if done right.
Some changes in how aggressive you are might be needed if you are the impatient kind of trader who needs to see a lot of deals happening. But it is an added risk. In those cases Luc would advise to start “nibbling” but that would be hard to implement in a bot but I will see if that’s something I can implement.
Same goes for going the more conservative route when market conditions calls for it.
QFL stands for Quickfingersluc, and sometimes it is referred to as the Base Strategy or Mean Reversals. Its main idea is about identifying the moment of panic selling and buying below the base level and utilizing Safety orders.
Base level or Support Level refers to the lowest price level that was reached before the moment the price started increasing again. At that level, you can notice that buyers of some cryptocurrencies make a strong reaction.
As a bit of a learning material i want to make a few points on important factors in trading using the QFL strategy:
• Identify strong bases
• Read the history of the chart
• No emotions
Trading QFL using a bot has it’s limitations:
· Some of the bases are questionable but im constantly trying to improve this
· The strategy don’t take into consideration chart history(success rate)*
· You need to follow a predefined (by you) buying ladder, hence not considering a particular coin's average price movement, which may vary quite a lot. This why I for now has limited the strategy to SIMPLE bots. So that unique alerts can be created for each pair.
· A set Take profit %, possibly making you miss out on higher profits(This is easy to change during a trade though), and no chance of selling in layers(This is coming soon).
1. Some of the bases are questionable
The strategy will start trades of bases that you wouldn’t consider being a strong base(or a base at all) when looking at the chart.
For those not as familiar with QFL. What is a base, and what qualifies as a strong base?
• A base is also called the Support Level, which is the lowest price level that was reached before the price started turning and increasing again.
• A strong base is recognized by a steep fall in price after breaking the base(Panic), followed by a big reaction pump.
• The reaction pump is the most important factor to say that it is a strong base.
• And also the last base, the one you are trading of is the one that counts
Tip: Look for V shapes on the chart, easy to spot when zoomed out.
2. The integrated signals don’t take into consideration chart history(success rate)*
How can you assess the success rate by looking at the chart?
After finding the bases based on the criterias from the 1st point. Looking at the, how many times did it respect the base after breaking it? 7/10, 8/10, 9/10 times? Great! Chances of the next trade also respecting the base is big, and I would consider raising the TP on that deal. Any lower than that I would keep a really close eye on the deal, or even consider closing the deal. And again remember the last base is the one that counts. If all the others are nice strong bases but that last one you are about to take a trade off is no good the base is invalidated so be cautious.
3. You need to follow a predefined (by you) buying ladder
Crypto is volatile, and there is a huge variation in price movements on all the coins.
Trading manually, looking at the chart gives you a good idea on how much a coin on avg. drops below base, and how big the following reaction is. This gives you an indication on how deep you need to set your layers, and where you can take profit.
Using the strategy you have the backtester to see how much max deviation has been in the past so that you can figure out what the optimal max deviation is.
4. A set Take profit %, possibly making you miss out on higher profits(This is easy to change during a trade though), and no chance of selling in layers.
Not going to say to much about this other than what I often do is:
When a bot has started a trade I usually take a look at the chart. If I like what I see, nice chart history, success rate and trading of a strong previous base etc, with the current base break resulting in a panic drop I will consider increasing the TP so that it will make more profit. This can be a bit risky but also very rewarding. Imagine filling all safeties and then selling just below base! Massive profits!! (Gotta be honest though, almost never stretch it that far with a bot though, but it is a possibility) .
If you have studied the chart and concluded that this particular trade has a 90% chance of success, there isn’t really any reason not to place TP just below base. This is where I would like to have the option of layering my sell orders as well so its something im working on implementing.
Trailing is an option in 3commas, but it’s slow to place orders making you miss a selling opportunity when the coin makes a sudden spike up.
ABOUT THIS STRATEGY
In this strategy we can also reverse the strategy and go short. But i must warn you that that is alot riskier.
QFL is meant to be used on higher TF's like 1hr, 2hr and 4hr. But this strategy also work well on lower Timeframes.
The script also simulates DCA strategy with parameters used in 3commas DCA bots for futures trading.
Experiment with parameters to find your trading setup.
Beware how large your total leveraged position is and how far can market go before you get liquidated!
Do that with the help of futures liquidation calculators you can find online!
Included:
An internal average price and profit calculating, instead of TV`s native one, which is subject to severe slippage.
A graphic interface, so levels are clearly visible and back-test analyzing made easier.
Long & Short direction of the strategy.
Table display a summary of past trades
Vertical colored lines appear when the new maximum deviation from the original price has
been reached
All the trading happens with total account capital, and all order sizes inputs are expressed in percent.
How to use:
- Add the script to the current chart
- Open the strategy settings
-Tweak the settings to to your liking.
-Make a SIMPLE bot in 3commas and use the same settings as you did in tradingview if you only want the strategy to send signals to open a deal and let 3commas handle the rest.
If you check safety orders, Take profit deal stop and Stop loss. The strategy will send all the orders to 3 commas. If that’s what you want set TP in 3commas to 50% set number of safety orders to 0 and keep stop loss unchecked.
- Insert bot details using the deal start condition message found in your 3commas bot.
- When happy, right click on the "..." next to the strategy name, then "Add alert'".
- Under "Condition", on the second line, chose "Any alert () function call". Add the webhook from 3commas( 3commas.io ), give it a name, use {{strategy.order.alert_message}} as a placeholder message and "create".
In the future this signal might make it to the 3commas marketplace. You can then subscribe to that signal where I have cherrypicked coins based on thorough backtesting and optimization.

Ultimate Strategy Shell [ArtK]This strategy shell script accepts entry/exit signals from an external study indicator.
It is built to cover most common trade execution strategies such as, multiple take profit levels, break even, trailing stop loss, position reverse, laddering and more.
It also aims to provide extended trade statistics such as the actual (win/loss) figures for trades instead of figures for orders as TradingView provides in the Strategy Test Overview.
Features
- 3 Take Profit levels.
- 3 Take Profit target type options (Percentage, Risk Reward Ratio or (IN DEVELOP) Strategy).
- 2 Stop Loss type options (Percentage, Strategy).
- Break Even stoop loss (will move the Stop Loss to the entry price after the 1st or 2nd Take Profit).
- Trailing Stop Loss (will move the Stop Loss after the last Take Profit at specified deviation on every candle).
- Trades Summary Label
Shows the number of wins and losses in a row.
Shows the actual (win/loss) figures for trades instead of figures for orders as TradingView provides in the Strategy Test Overview.
Shows the period from the first trade until the last trade.
Shows how many times each Take Profit level was reached (IN DEVELOP).
(IN DEVELOP) Shows the maximum Stop Loss when using the Stop Loss – Strategy option (helpful when estimating Stop Losses when leveraging).
Plots marks at the bottom of the chart to indicate winning or losing trades (helps to quickly find losing trades for example).
- Entry Filters
-- Date Time, allows placing trades only during the specified period.
-- ADX, filters trades below specified ADX value.
-- Max Stop Loss, can be enabled when the Stop Loss type is set to "Strategy". Used to prevent taking trades which exceed liquidation price.
-- Direction, will filter trades in a certain direction.
Instruction
- The strategy script relies on an external indicator therefore it is required to add the signal indicator first.
- To adapt the signal indicator to be compatible it must have only one plot.
-- The default value of the plot should be 1 when there is no buy/sell signal.
-- When the signal indicator signals BUY the line should plot the value
-- When the signal indicator signals SELL the line should plot the value
-- (I am aiming to support EXIT signals as well as the Stop Loss and Take Profit percentages in the near future)
- The first time you load the script it will show an error "Study Error: Signal source set to default ". This means the signal indicator was not selected.
The signal indicator should be selected in the strategy configuration panel option "Signal Source"
GRID SPOT TRADING ALGORITHM - GRID BOT TRADING STRATEGYGRID SPOT TRADING ALGORITHM : LONG ONLY STRATEGY OPEN SOURCE
This is a long only strategy for spot assets.
HOW IT WORKS
Grid trading is a trading strategy where an investor creates a so-called "price grid". The basic idea of the strategy is to repeatedly buy at the pre-specified price and then wait for the price to rise above that level and then sell the position (and vice versa with shorting or hedging).
FEATURES
Grids: This algorithm has a total of 10 grids.
Take profit: The trader can increase or decrease the distance between the grids from the User Interface panel, the distance between one grid and another represents the take profit.
Management: The algorithm buys 10% of the capital every time the price breaks down a grid and sells during a rise to the next higher grid. The initial capital is invested in 10 sizes which represent 10% of the capital per trade.
Stop Loss: The algorithm knows no stop loss as long as it is not activated from the User Interface panel. By activating the stop loss from the User Interface panel the algorithm will insert a close condition on all trades which will be calculated from the last lower grid.
Trades: Trades are opened only if the price is within the grid. If the market leaves the grid the algorithm will not buy new positions or sell new positions.
Optimal market conditions: The favorable market for this algorithm is the sideways market.
LIMITATIONS OF THE MODEL
The trader must take into account that this is a static model. It only works perfectly well if the market is in a sideways phase and incurs heavy losses if the market takes a downward trend. The model is unusable for an uptrend. The trader must therefore carefully analyze the market where he intends to use this strategy, making sure that the price is in a sideways phase.
USES
Indispensable research and backtesting tool for those using bots for their investments. The algorithm produces a backtesting of the strategy for past history. It is used by professional traders to understand if this strategy has been profitable on a market and what parameters to use for bots using this strategy (Kucoin, Binance etc.).

Bounce Manager S/RThis script is based on the bounce manager ATR script
The S/R script is made for manual input of horizontal S/R lines, the script will then see if price respects these levels by the parameters you input in settings panel. On a respectable bounce it will print buy/sell arrows. The script also has functionality to send alerts, this is helpful if you want to automate S/R lines.
An easy strategy to use would be the one you see in the preview using a grid of round numbers. This script in no way shape or form promises easy gains and like all algorithms should be forward tested on a paper trading account before using real money.
components:
- Max violation: When price moves past this the script will no longer look for entry until a new trend has been established. The line can also be used as a stop loss.
- Confirmation line: When price touches the line during a trend it
will wait to cross over this line to confirm a reaction from the line.
- Min past distance: A trend filtering system, this is a distance from
the line price has to break to confirm trend direction.
- Stop loss: This can be set to a percentage distance from the low after
bounce. Or it can be set to the max violation line
- Take profit: This can be a fixed take profit target or a risk to reward
based take profit. With risk to reward it will multiply the stop loss
distance by the input and use that to create target (green cross)
- ATR based or % based: there are 2 versions of the script, one for strict
percentage based logic and another one based on ATR values
Part of the Honest Algo service.
Trading PanelWhen trading, position sizing and risk calculation is the key to become successful.
We need to keep the losses small and adjust the position size according to what
risk we are prepared to take for the planned Entry.
Based on the Account Size and the max percentage we want to risk for any trade,
we calculate, for a number of fixed max Loss percentages:
- The Position size, both in percent and in the selected currency.
- Number of shares to buy.
- Where to put the Stop Loss.
We also calculate the numbers based on the ATR times a multiple.
The values are presented in a table format and will hopefully aid in selecting
a suitable Stop Loss (based on the chart situation) and hence the proper Position Size.
We also allow for expressing the Account size in currencies other than USD.
Example:
Account Size in USD and trading US stocks: select USD
Account Size in SEK but trading US stocks: select USDSEK
Bollinger Bands Strategy with StopLossThis is the default Bollinger Bands Strategy with a small change to support Stop Loss.
The default built-int BBS does not support Stop Loss and using it may cause large losses, specially in margin trading.

[ADOL_]ARVIS 3ENG) This is version 3 of ARVIS BOT. ARVIS 3
Since it is a new version with a completely different identity from Trend Break, we do not use the name Trend Break.
It is a version made lighter in the existing version and newly created logic.
Existing ARVIS users can use versions 1, 2, 3 and 3R auxiliary tools to be added without additional rights.
Optional use is possible.
principle)
Features of the new core logic:
It was created considering the relative strength RSI and the ICHIMOKU moving average.
Identify the trend strength to generate a long and short reversal signal at the reversal of the trend.
By using HTF signal, it is possible to bring the signal of the upper time to the smaller time.
By using HTF, the candle splits and the standard maintains the flow of time.
A method was used to reduce the whipsaw of frequent signal appearances.
option)
A volatility warning notification has been included. A function that alerts you before volatility increases.
It is indicated in the form of ■ at the bottom of the chart.
You can optionally set the signal range.
Dynamic Fibonacci moving along the candlestick was applied. 0.5 is used as a criterion for determining a large trend.
By combining the RSI and the moving average, you can apply a background that utilizes the RSI as a sensitivity.
By combining RSI and Stochastic, the overbought/oversold section was output as the background.
You can output overbought/oversold at the desired time as a background.
Up/down divergence included as background.
Black is downward divergence and white is upward divergence.
In the lower right corner, an indicator for the probability of a long is added by combining the multiple moving averages and the figures analyzed for the convergence trend.
50% is used as a reference point for long/short conversion, 10~20% is considered oversold section, and 80~90% is considered overbought section.
It can be used as a reference point for counter-trend trading. Probability indicators allow you to increase your judgment with visualized numbers.
principle example)
time frame)
Recommended time frame: 15-minute peaks >> 1-hour peaks > 1.3-minute peaks = 4 hour peaks = daily
alarm)
Various alert functions are available. based on the alert signal
When trading, various signals help to set specific conditions.
- HTF Long Short , Alert
- Volatility warning alert
- Basic long and short alerts
- Up/down divergence alert
trading method)
1. Utilize SIGNAL1 L,S signals. It is a similar approach to the existing manual bot mode.
2.SIGNAL2's , signals can bring high-time signals to buy and sell. This is a similar approach to the existing autobot mode.
If you bring a high time signal to a small time, you can refine the hit point, so in this case, use SIGNAL2 of 15 minutes or longer.
SIGNAL2 15-minute view at 3-minute peak, SIGNAL 1 hour view at 15-minute peak, and SIGNAL 4 hour view at 1-hour peak are recommended values.
3-1. Entry criteria/stop loss criteria (when trading hands and bots)
- entry criteria; Follow the signal.
- Stop loss criteria;
Use fixed stop loss: Set 1% fixed stop loss section from signal generation. (% is set individually)
Use Candle Stop Loss: Set a stop loss when the low or high point of the signal generating bar collapses.
Use flow stop loss: Set the stop loss considering the flow of the wave.
3-2. Entry criteria/stop loss criteria (in case of signal-based bot trading)
- It is not recommended to use more than 3x magnification. The above entry requires manual intervention and risk management.
It switches every time the opposite signal appears after entering without setting the stop loss separately.
Example of using the 15-minute HTF signal in the 3-minute scale

Cyatophilum Swing Trader [BACKTEST]This is an indicator for swing trading which allows you to build your own strategies, backtest and alert. This version is the backtest which allows to use the Strategy Tester. The alert version can be found in my profile scripts page.
The particularity of this indicator is that it contains several indicators, including a custom one, that you can choose in a drop down list, as well as a trailing stop loss and take profit system.
The current indicators are :
CYATO AI: a custom indicator inspired by Donchian Channels that will catch each big trend and important reversal points .
The indicator has two major "bands" or channels and two minor bands. The major bands are bigger and are always displayed.
When price reaches a major band, acting as a support/resistance, it will either bounce on it or break through it. This is how "tops" and "bottoms", and breakouts are caught.
The minor bands are used to catch smaller moves inside the major bands. A combination of volume, momentum and price action is used to calculate the signals.
Advantages of this indicator: it should catch top and bottoms better than other swing trade indicators.
Cons of this indicator: Some minor moves might be ignored. Sometimes the script will catch a fakeout due to the Bands design.
Best timeframes to use it : 2H~4H
Sample:
Other indicators available:
SARMA: A combination of Parabolic Stop and Reverse and Exponential Moving Average (20 and 40) .
SAR: Regular Parabolic Stop and Reverse .
QQE: An indicator based on Quantitative Qualitative Estimation .
SUPERTREND: A reversal indicator based on Average True Range .
CHANNELS: The classic Donchian Channels .
More indicators might be added in the future.
About the signals: each entry (long & short) is calculated at bar close to avoid repainting. Exits (SL & TP) can either be intra-bar or at bar close using the Exit alert type parameter.
STOP LOSS SYSTEM
The base indicators listed above can be used with or without TP/SL.
TP and SL can be both turned on and off and configured for both directions.
The system can be configured with 3 parameters as follows:
Stop Loss Base % Price: Starting Value for LONG/SHORT stop loss
Trailing Stop % Price to Trigger First parameter related to the trailing stop loss. Percentage of price movement in the right direction required to make the stop loss line move.
Trailing Stop % Price Movement: Second parameter related to the trailing stop loss. Percentage for the stop loss trailing movement.
Another option is the "Reverse order on Stop Loss". Use this if you want the strategy to trigger a reverse order when a stop loss is hit.
TAKE PROFIT SYSTEM
The system can be configured with 2 parameters as follows:
Take Profit %: Take profit value in percentage of price.
Trailing Profit Deviation %: Percent deviation for the trailing take profit.
Combining indicators and Take Profit/Stop Loss
One thing to note is that if a reversal signal triggers during a trade, the trade will be closed before SL or TP is reached.
Indeed, the base indicators are reversal indicators, they will trigger long/short signals to follow the trend.
It is possible to use a takeprofit without stop loss, like in this example, knowing that the signal will reverse if the trade goes badly.
The base indicators settings can be changed in the "Advanced Parameters" section.
Configuration used for this snapshot:

TrendMaster FreeTrendMaster Free
This is the free version of TrendMaster. It includes the Cloud and the candle colouring rules but does not provide the entry, exit and stop loss management of the full version.
TrendMaster is a complete trend following system with strict entry, exit and trade management criteria. The indicator is optimised for weekly, daily and 4-hour candlesticks and can be used for all trending markets such as crypto, forex or stocks. It was developed primarily for less experienced traders that struggle to determine relevant information from irrelevant information when viewing a candlestick chart. The indicator was built to solve the problem that all new traders face.
The Cloud
The indicator includes a moving average cloud which serves as a visual guide to local support and resistance . When price exits the cloud to the upside it typically trends above and finds support at the cloud during retracements.
Candle Colours
By default, TrendMaster will colour your candles in black and white. White candles indicate an uptrend in an asset and the candles will not change colour until the trend has reversed and a counter-trend signal has been printed. Black candles indicate a downtrend, they will remain black until a counter-trend long signal candle has been printed.
Setting Up The Indicator
TrendMaster is optimised for Heikin-Ashi candles. Using candles with smoothing applied decreases the likelihood of whipsaw losses and provides a stable visual representation of the trend. Ensure you have applied Heikin-Ashi candles to your chart before continuing. You can customise to any style of your choice provided the candle borders and wicks are set to a uniform colour that contrasts the chart background.
Entries and Exits
A long signal candle is a white Heikin-Ashi candle that closes above the cloud. A short signal candle is a white Heikin-Ashi candle that closes below the cloud. Entries are taken with a pending order placed at the wick with a reasonable margin for error.
Upgrading
The full version of TrendMaster contains significantly more functionality including coloured signal candles, stop loss and trailing take profit management, alerts and much more.

PRIMO+ (dc_77)PRIMO+ (dc_77) - Advanced Multi-Session Trading System
Overview
This comprehensive trading indicator combines market structure analysis, Fair Value Gap (FVG) detection, and multi-timeframe bias assessment to identify high-probability trading opportunities during key market sessions. The system operates on a sophisticated framework that evaluates market sentiment across multiple reference points and provides complete trade management projections.
Core Features
Multi-Timeframe Bias System
The indicator establishes directional bias by analyzing price action relative to four critical reference points:
- 18:00 NY Open: Previous day's market opening level
- 00:00 Midnight: Daily reset reference price
- 09:30 NY Open: Current session market opening
- 09:45 NY Open: Key institutional entry timeframe
Bias Logic:
- LONGS Bias: Price trading below ALL reference levels (institutional accumulation zone)
- SHORTS Bias: Price trading above ALL reference levels (institutional distribution zone)
- BEWARE: Mixed signals across reference points (avoid trading)
Four-Session Architecture
The system monitors four distinct trading sessions, each representing different market participant activities:
1. Session 1 (09:45-10:20): London/NY overlap - high liquidity period
2. Session 2 (10:45-11:30): NY continuation - institutional positioning
3. Session 3 (13:50-14:10): Pre-close positioning - smart money moves
4. Session 4 (15:50-16:05): Market close - final institutional plays
Each session can be individually enabled/disabled with custom time ranges.
Advanced Fair Value Gap Detection
The indicator identifies three-candle imbalances using sophisticated filtering:
FVG Classification:
- Bullish FVGs: Gaps between candle 3 high and candle 1 low (upward imbalance)
- Bearish FVGs: Gaps between candle 1 high and candle 3 low (downward imbalance)
Dynamic Filtering System:
- Bias alignment filtering (only shows FVGs aligned with overall market bias)
- Trend direction filtering (FVGs must align with market structure)
- Session-based activation/deactivation
- Real-time gap validation and invalidation
Market Structure Shift (MSS) Detection
Proprietary swing-based algorithm identifies significant market structure changes:
- Bullish MSS: Price breaks above previous significant high with trend confirmation
- Bearish MSS: Price breaks below previous significant low with trend confirmation
- Dynamic Lookback: Configurable swing detection sensitivity (4-5 bar pivots)
Comprehensive Risk Management System
When conditions align, the indicator projects complete trade setups:
Entry Methodology:
- FVG center point calculated using mathematical precision
- Entry triggered only when MSS occurs with aligned bias
- Confirmation timer prevents false signals (22-second default validation)
Stop Loss Calculation:
- Dynamic SL placement based on FVG displacement
- 1.15x multiplier applied to gap distance for optimal risk positioning
- Adaptive to market volatility and gap size
Take Profit Projections:
- Five sequential TP levels (1:1 through 1:5 risk-reward ratios)
- Mathematical progression based on initial risk calculation
- Visual projection lines extend into future bars
Visual Signal System
Trade Signals:
- Green up arrows for bullish setups (positioned below stop loss level)
- Red down arrows for bearish setups (positioned above stop loss level)
- Optional date stamps showing signal generation time
Projection Lines:
- Entry level (gray dotted line)
- Stop loss level (red line)
- Multiple take profit levels (green lines with ratio labels)

Entry Criteria
All conditions must align for signal generation:
1. Appropriate market bias established
2. FVG present and validated within session
3. Market structure shift in aligned direction
4. Confirmation timer validation passed
Risk Management

Important Disclaimers
This indicator is for educational and analytical purposes. All trading involves risk, and past performance does not guarantee future results. Users should:
- Practice proper risk management
- Backtest thoroughly before live trading
- Understand all system components before use
- Never risk more than affordable loss amounts
The system provides analysis tools and projections but does not guarantee profitable trades. Market conditions change rapidly, and no indicator can predict future price movements with certainty.
Additional Risk Warnings and Disclaimers
Trading Addiction and Mental Health: Trading can become psychologically addictive and may lead to compulsive behavior, financial ruin, and severe emotional distress. If you find yourself unable to stop trading, risking money you cannot afford to lose, neglecting personal relationships or responsibilities, or experiencing extreme emotional swings based on trading outcomes, please seek help from a qualified mental health professional. The excitement of potential profits can mask serious underlying issues with impulse control and risk-taking behavior.
No Guarantee of Performance: This indicator has not been independently verified or audited. Backtesting results may not reflect actual trading conditions due to market slippage, execution delays, spread variations, and changing market dynamics. Historical performance is not indicative of future results, and all trading strategies can and do lose money.
Market Risk Acknowledgment: Financial markets can experience extreme volatility, flash crashes, liquidity crises, and unprecedented events that render technical analysis ineffective. Economic announcements, geopolitical events, and central bank policies can cause rapid price movements that invalidate technical setups instantly.
Position Sizing and Capital Preservation: Never risk more than 1-2% of your total account on any single trade. Proper position sizing is more important than any trading signal. Multiple consecutive losses are normal and expected - ensure your account can withstand extended drawdown periods without impairing your ability to continue trading or meet personal financial obligations.
Educational Purpose Only: This tool is designed for educational analysis and should not be construed as personalized financial advice. Consult with qualified financial advisors before making investment decisions. The creators assume no responsibility for any financial losses incurred through use of this indicator.

Version 1.0 | Pine Script v5 | Compatible with all TradingView accounts
Maiko Range Scalper (Sideways BB + RSI) – v4 cleanPurpose
It’s a range scalping strategy for crypto. It tries to take small, repeatable trades inside a sideways market: buy near the bottom of the range, sell near the middle/top (and the reverse for shorts).
Core idea (two timeframes)
Define the trading range on a higher timeframe (HTF)
You choose the HTF (e.g., 15m or 1h).
The script finds the highest high and lowest low over a lookback window (e.g., last 96 HTF candles) → these become HTF Resistance and HTF Support.
It also calculates the midline (average of support/resistance).
Trade signals on your lower timeframe (LTF)
You run the strategy on a fast chart (e.g., 1m or 5m).
Entries are only allowed inside the HTF range.
Entry logic (mean reversion)
Indicators on the LTF:
Bollinger Bands (length & std dev configurable).
RSI (length & thresholds configurable).
Optional VWAP proximity filter (price must be within X% of VWAP).
Long setup:
Price touches/under-cuts the lower Bollinger band AND RSI ≤ threshold (default 30) AND price is inside the HTF range (and passes VWAP filter if enabled).
Short setup:
Price touches/exceeds the upper Bollinger band AND RSI ≥ threshold (default 70) AND price is inside the HTF range (and passes VWAP filter if enabled).
Exits and risk
Stop-loss: placed just outside the HTF range with a configurable buffer %:
Long SL = HTF Support × (1 − buffer).
Short SL = HTF Resistance × (1 + buffer).
Take-profit (selectable):
Mid band (the Bollinger basis) → conservative, faster exits.
Opposite band / HTF boundary → more aggressive, higher RR but more give-backs.
Position sizing
A simple cap: maximum position size = percent of account equity (e.g., 20%).
The script calculates quantity from that cap and current price.
Plots you’ll see on the chart
HTF Resistance (red) and HTF Support (green) via plot().
HTF Midline (gray dashed) drawn with a line.new() object (because plot() cannot do dashed).
Bollinger basis/upper/lower on the LTF.
Optional VWAP line (only shown if you enable the filter).
Signal markers (green triangle up for Long setups, red triangle down for Short setups).
Alerts
Two alertconditions:
“Long Setup” – when a long entry condition appears.
“Short Setup” – when a short entry condition appears.
Create alerts from these to get notified in real time.
How to use it (quick start)
Add to a 1m or 5m chart of a liquid coin (BTC, ETH, SOL).
Set HTF timeframe (start with 1h) and lookback (e.g., 96 = ~4 days on 1h).
Keep default Bollinger/RSI first; tune later.
Choose TP mode:
“Mid band” for quick scalps.
“Opposite band/Range” if the range is very clean and you want bigger targets.
Set SL buffer (0.15–0.30% is common; adjust for volatility).
Set Max position % to control size (e.g., 20%).
(Optional) Enable VWAP filter to skip stretched moves.
When it works best
Clearly sideways markets with visible support/resistance on the HTF.
High-liquidity pairs where spreads/fees are small relative to your scalp target.
Limitations & safety notes
True breakouts will invalidate mean-reversion logic—your SL outside the range is there to cut losses fast.
Fees can eat into small scalps—prefer limit orders, rebates, and liquid pairs.
Backtest results vary by exchange data; always forward-test on small size.
If you want, I can:
Add an ATR-based stop/target option.
Provide a study-only version (signals/alerts, no trading engine).
Pre-set risk to your €5,000 plan (e.g., ~0.5% max loss/trade) with calculated qty.
Instant Breakout Strategy with RSI & VWAPInstant Breakout Strategy with RSI & VWAP
This TradingView strategy (Pine Script v6) trades breakouts using pivot points, with optional filters for volume, momentum, RSI, and VWAP. It’s optimized for the 1-second timeframe.
Overview
The strategy identifies breakouts when price crosses above resistance (pivot highs) or below support (pivot lows). It can use basic pivot breakouts or add filters for stronger signals. Take-profit and stop-loss levels are set using ATR, and signals are shown on the chart.
Inputs
Left/Right Pivot Bars: Bars to detect pivots (default: 3). Lower values increase sensitivity.
Volume Surge Multiplier: Volume threshold vs. 20-period average (default: 1.5).
Momentum Threshold: Minimum % price change from bar open (default: 1%).
Take-Profit ATR Multiplier: ATR multiplier for take-profit (default: 9.0).
Stop-Loss ATR Multiplier: ATR multiplier for stop-loss (default: 1.0).
Use Filters: Enable/disable volume, momentum, RSI, and VWAP filters (default: off).
How It Works
1. Pivot Detection
Finds pivot highs (resistance) and lows (support) using ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow.
Tracks the latest pivot levels.
2. Volume Surge
Compares current volume to a 20-period volume average.
A surge occurs if volume exceeds the average times the multiplier.
3. Momentum
Measures price change from the bar’s open.
Bullish: Price rises >1% from open.
Bearish: Price falls >1% from open.
4. RSI and VWAP
RSI: 3-period RSI. Above 50 is bullish; below 50 is bearish.
VWAP: Price above VWAP is bullish; below is bearish.
5. ATR
14-period ATR sets take-profit (close ± atr * 9.0) and stop-loss (close ± atr * 1.0).
Trading Rules
Breakout Conditions
Bullish Breakout:
Price crosses above the latest pivot high.
With filters: Volume surge, bullish momentum, RSI > 50, price > VWAP.
Without filters: Only the crossover is needed.
Bearish Breakout:
Price crosses below the latest pivot low.
With filters: Volume surge, bearish momentum, RSI < 50, price < VWAP.
Without filters: Only the crossunder is needed.
Entries and Exits
Long: Enter on bullish breakout. Set take-profit and stop-loss. Close any short position.
Short: Enter on bearish breakout. Set take-profit and stop-loss. Close any long position.
Visuals
Signals: Green triangles (bullish) below bars, red triangles (bearish) above bars.
Pivot Levels: Green line (resistance), red line (support).
Indicators: RSI (blue, separate pane), VWAP (purple, on chart).
How to Use
Apply to a 1-second chart in TradingView for best results.
Adjust inputs (e.g., pivot bars, multipliers). Enable filters for stricter signals.
Watch for buy/sell triangles and monitor RSI/VWAP.
Use ATR-based take-profit/stop-loss for risk management.
Notes
Best on 1-second timeframe due to fast RSI and responsiveness.
Disable filters for more signals (less confirmation).
Backtest before live trading to check performance.
This strategy uses pivots, volume, momentum, RSI, and VWAP for clear breakout trades on the 1-second timeframe.

◆ 추세 강도 이해하기
■ 추세 강도 측정 방식
• 정의: 최근 일정 기간 동안의 상승/하락 캔들 비율을 분석하여 추세의 강도를 측정
• 시각적 표현: 테이블에 "BULL STRENGTH" 또는 "BEAR STRENGTH"로 표시되며, 백분율 값과 함께 "STRONG" 또는 "WEAK" 상태 표시
• 강도 임계값: 사용자가 설정 가능한 임계값에 따라 강함/약함 판정
• 계산 방식:
▶ 상승 추세 강도 = (상승 캔들 수) / (전체 분석 기간)
▶ 하락 추세 강도 = (하락 캔들 수) / (전체 분석 기간)
▶ 강도가 임계값 이상일 때 "STRONG", 미만일 때 "WEAK"로 표시
■ 추세 강도의 활용
• 신호 필터링: 추세 강도가 강할 때만 신호를 생성하여 허위 신호 감소
• 추세 확인: 현재 시장 추세의 건전성과 지속 가능성 평가
• 진입/퇴출 결정: 강한 추세에서 진입하고 약한 추세로 전환될 때 퇴출 고려
• 리스크 관리: 약한 추세에서는 포지션 크기를 줄이고, 강한 추세에서는 늘리는 전략 수립 가능

Pullback Pro Dow Strategy v7 (ADX Filter)
### **Strategy Description (For TradingView)**
#### **Title:** Pullback Pro: Dow Theory & ADX Strategy
---
#### **1. Summary**
This strategy is designed to identify and trade pullbacks within an established trend, based on the core principles of Dow Theory. It uses market structure (pivot highs and lows) to determine the trend direction and an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to pinpoint pullback entry opportunities.
To enhance trade quality and avoid ranging markets, an ADX (Average Directional Index) filter is integrated to ensure that entries are only taken when the trend has sufficient momentum.
---
#### **2. Core Logic: How It Works**
The strategy's logic is broken down into three main steps:
**Step 1: Trend Determination (Dow Theory)**
* The primary trend is identified by analyzing recent pivot points.
* An **Uptrend** is confirmed when the script detects a pattern of higher highs and higher lows (HH/HL).
* A **Downtrend** is confirmed by a pattern of lower highs and lower lows (LH/LL).
* If neither pattern is present, the strategy considers the market to be in a range and will not seek trades.
**Step 2: Entry Signal (Pullback to EMA)**
* Once a clear trend is established, the strategy waits for a price correction.
* **Long Entry:** In a confirmed uptrend, a long position is initiated when the price pulls back and crosses *under* the specified EMA.
* **Short Entry:** In a confirmed downtrend, a short position is initiated when the price rallies and crosses *over* the EMA.
**Step 3: Confirmation & Risk Management**
* **ADX Filter:** To ensure the trend is strong enough to trade, an entry signal is only validated if the ADX value is above a user-defined threshold (e.g., 25). This helps filter out weak signals during choppy or consolidating markets.
* **Stop Loss:** The initial Stop Loss is automatically and logically placed at the last market structure point:
* For long trades, it's placed at the `lastPivotLow`.
* For short trades, it's placed at the `lastPivotHigh`.
* **Take Profit:** Two Take Profit levels are calculated based on user-defined Risk-to-Reward (R:R) ratios. The strategy allows for partial profit-taking at the first target (TP1), moving the remainder of the position to the second target (TP2).
---
#### **3. Input Settings Explained**
**① Dow Theory Settings**
* **Pivot Lookback Period:** Determines the sensitivity for detecting pivot highs and lows. A smaller number makes it more sensitive to recent price swings; a larger number focuses on more significant, longer-term pivots.
**② Entry Logic (Pullback)**
* **Pullback EMA Length:** Sets the period for the Exponential Moving Average used to identify pullback entries.
**③ Risk & Exit Management**
* **Take Profit 1 R:R:** Sets the Risk-to-Reward ratio for the first take-profit target.
* **Take Profit 1 (%):** The percentage of the position to be closed when TP1 is hit.
* **Take Profit 2 R:R:** Sets the Risk-to-Reward ratio for the final take-profit target.
**④ Filters**
* **Use ADX Trend Filter:** A master switch to enable or disable the ADX filter.
* **ADX Length:** The lookback period for the ADX calculation.
* **ADX Threshold:** The minimum ADX value required to confirm a trade signal. Trades will only be placed if the ADX is above this level.
---
#### **4. Best Practices & Recommendations**
* This is a trend-following system. It is designed to perform best in markets that exhibit clear, sustained trending behavior.
* It may underperform in choppy, sideways, or strongly ranging markets. The ADX filter is designed to help mitigate this, but no filter is perfect.
* **Crucially, you must backtest this strategy thoroughly** on your preferred financial instrument and timeframe before considering any live application.
* Experiment with the `Pivot Lookback Period`, `Pullback EMA Length`, and `ADX Threshold` to optimize performance for a specific market's characteristics.

Smart Money Liquidity Zones ProThe Smart Money Liquidity Zones Pro indicator identifies and visualizes key liquidity areas in the market where institutional traders (smart money) are likely to have placed their stop-loss orders. These zones represent areas of high liquidity that often act as magnets for price, making them valuable reference points for trading decisions.
What the Indicator Does
Core Functionality
Swing Point Detection: The indicator identifies significant swing highs and lows using three different methods (Classic, Fractal, or Combined) to locate potential liquidity pools.
Liquidity Zone Creation: At each valid swing point, the indicator creates a horizontal zone representing an area where stop-loss orders are likely clustered.
Zone Clustering: When multiple swing points occur near the same price level, the indicator intelligently combines them into larger cluster zones, indicating stronger liquidity areas.
Volume Confirmation: The indicator can filter zones based on volume, showing only those swing points that occurred with significant trading volume.
Zone Break Detection: When price closes through a liquidity zone, the indicator marks it as "Liquidity Taken" and removes the zone from the chart.
Zone Types
Buy-Side Liquidity Zones (Green): Created at swing highs where short sellers' stop-losses are likely placed
Sell-Side Liquidity Zones (Red): Created at swing lows where long traders' stop-losses are likely placed
Trading Strategies
Basic Concepts
Liquidity Runs: Price often moves toward these zones to trigger stop-loss orders before reversing. This creates trading opportunities.
Support and Resistance: Unbroken liquidity zones can act as support (sell-side) or resistance (buy-side) levels.
Breakout Confirmation: When price breaks through a zone with strong momentum, it often continues in that direction.
Entry Strategies
Strategy 1: Liquidity Grab Reversa l
Wait for price to spike into a liquidity zone
Look for rejection candles (wicks) at the zone
Enter in the opposite direction after confirmation
Place stop-loss beyond the liquidity zone
Strategy 2: Zone Break Continuation
Wait for price to close decisively through a zone
Enter on the retest of the broken zone
Target the next liquidity zone in the direction of the break
Strategy 3: Zone Clustering Trade
Focus on areas with multiple overlapping zones (clusters)
These areas offer higher probability setups
Trade bounces from cluster zones with tighter risk management
Risk Management
Always use stop-losses beyond the liquidity zones
Consider the overall market context and trend
Zones on higher timeframes are generally more significant
Volume-confirmed zones have higher reliability

PineConnector [Extension] | FractalystWhat is the PineConnector Extension?
The PineConnector Extension is a sophisticated bridge indicator designed to seamlessly connect Quantify trading signals with PineConnector's automated execution system.
This extension transforms manual signal monitoring into fully automated trading by interpreting Quantify's signal outputs and converting them into executable PineConnector commands.
Unlike standalone trading indicators, this extension serves as a communication layer between your signal generation (Quantify indicator) and trade execution (PineConnector), enabling hands-free trading across multiple timeframes and instruments.
How does the signal processing work?
The extension processes four distinct signal types from Quantify indicators:
Signal Values:
1 = Buy/Long signal - Opens bullish positions
-1 = Sell/Short signal - Opens bearish positions
0.5 = Close Long - Closes all long positions
-0.5 = Close Short - Closes all short positions
The script continuously monitors the "Signal Source" input, which should be connected to any Quantify indicator's output. When a signal is detected, the extension automatically generates the corresponding PineConnector command with your configured parameters.
What are the available order types and how do they work?
The extension supports three order execution modes:
Market Orders:
- Execute immediately at current market price
- Highest execution probability
- Subject to slippage during volatile conditions
Limit Orders:
- Execute only when price reaches a more favorable level
- Buy limits placed below current price
- Sell limits placed above current price
- Dynamic pip offset calculated using ATR-based volatility
Stop Orders:
- Execute when price breaks beyond specified levels
- Buy stops placed above current price
- Sell stops placed below current price
- Useful for breakout strategies
Dynamic Pricing Calculation:
The extension calculates optimal entry prices using volatility-adjusted pip offsets:
priceVolatility = ta.atr(14) / close * 100
volatilityFactor = math.min(math.max(priceVolatility / 0.1, 0.5), 2.0)
pipsOffset = 10 * volatilityFactor
How does the risk management system work?
Risk Percentage:
The extension uses percentage-based position sizing where you specify the risk per trade (0.1% to 10.0%). This value is passed to PineConnector, which calculates the exact position size based on:
- Account balance
- Stop loss distance
- Instrument specifications
- Broker settings
Stop Loss Integration:
- The "Stop Source" input connects to external stop loss levels from Quantify or other indicators. - This ensures:
- Consistent risk-reward ratios
- Dynamic stop placement based on market structure
- Automatic position sizing calculations
Multi-Asset Compatibility:
The extension automatically detects instrument types and adjusts pip calculations:
Forex: mintick * 10
Crypto: mintick * 10
Other assets: mintick * 1
What does the information display table show?
The real-time status table provides essential configuration monitoring:
Status Indicators:
- License: Shows PineConnector license ID status (Blue = Set, Red = Missing)
- Security: Displays secret key status (Blue = Set, Orange = Disabled)
- Comment: Shows trade comment or timeframe if empty
- Symbol: Current trading symbol (manual override or chart symbol)
- Order Type: Active execution mode (Market/Limit/Stop)
- Risk: Risk percentage with color coding (Blue ≤1%, Orange >1%)
- Signal: Connection status (Blue = Connected, Red = Not Set)
- Stop: Stop loss source status (Blue = Connected, Red = Not Set)
Color Coding System:
Blue: Optimal/Connected
Orange: Warning/Moderate risk
Red: Error/Not configured
How do I connect this to my Quantify indicator?
Step-by-Step Connection:
