[DisDev] 12 Candle|Round#|Future SessionsThis indicator has many components; below, each component is explained and how it can be used as a trading tool.
1) Future Lines
a. Vertical lines are projected into the future to mark the beginning of each of the three major markets, Tokyo, London, and New York.
b. When major markets open, this can cause an increase in price action. So this component provides the trader with a reminder of when the next major market opens.
c. Also, the days of the week are displayed to allow the user to backtest price reaction for certain days of the week easily (e.g., Major Markets reopening after the weekend).
2) 12 Hour Candle Sessions High and Low
a. As price intersects with the beginning of the session, the vertical line disappears, and two corresponding horizontal lines begin. These horizontal lines dynamically adjust to mark each session's high and low, and a semi-transparent box fills the space between the high and low lines.
b. The duration of each session is a three-hour window, which each consists of 12 Fifteen-Minute Candles. This marks the hour prior to equity markets open, the opening hour, and the post-open hour.
c. The sessions highs and lows can be selected within the settings show for a 24 hour period. This assists the trader with session range breakouts; three examples of how this could be traded are below.
Example 1
d. The Tokyo and London session high kept the price action within a range. Once it broke the range, the Tokyo and London session highs were used as support, resulting in a range breakout.
Example 2
e. The below picture shows price action failing to break London Session Low and New York Session High; this is followed by Tokyo Low acting as resistance and price moving down 9%.
Example 3
f. Below price action with an increased volume of 323% (based on the average of the last 10 bar) fails to break the Tokyo High on the 1st attempt. The second attempt fails on 241% volume. The third attempt at 475% breaks the range, completing the range breakout seeing a move of 3.4% in price.
4) High of Day (HOD) and Low of Day (LOD)
a. As the trading day unfolds, we mark the HOD (d-High) and LOD (d-Low) with blue dotted horizontal lines. Then at the start of the next trading day, the former High and Low become the Previous Day High (pd-High) and Low (pd-Low) and are changed to dashes.
b. These high and low levels add extra confluence with the session high and lows for Swing Failure Patterns (SFP) and confirmation of trends.
5) Round Numbers
a. As humans, it's hard to use just any number to make sense of things. We prefer to use round numbers. This is important for trading as many traders will automatically use round numbers as their stop losses.
b. This indicator component reminds users of this fact and displays round numbers such as 00, 25, 50, and 75. The indicator automatically calculates and displays lines for the round numbers for as many as twelve levels above and below the current price.
c. Below are examples of how round numbers are broken to trigger stop losses; you may want to break the habit of using round numbers as your stop losses.
Below is the indicator in full swing, displaying all the elements described above.

Day Trading SPYThis script can be used to see a potential trend change, ride a trend and to scalp following the current trend.
Indicators:
- ATR (bright green/maroon) – is a longer term trend ATR line
- MA (green/red) - is a shorter term MA, where the fast MA is dotted and the long MA is a line
- Support and Resistance (white bold line) – long-term support and resistance areas
- Scalping signals (red/green) – small triangles above/below the candles bouncing off fast MA
- Black candles - oversized huge candles, which must be addressed carefully, especially when these candles change the trend per ATR, as with such huge candle – it is hard to determine where to place the stop-loss (if it is above/below the candle, since the candle is so big - it becomes a big risk). Also such candles may point to an unusual market moves. The size can be adjusted from 0.1 and up, it’s set to 1.4 by default, but it can be changed as needed. With such candles, it is best to wait and see what market does. If the black candle is following the ATR trend or changing the trend per ATR – wait for next 1-3 candles or so, usually those re-bounce in the opposite direction of the ATR trend, which allows you to open the position with a tighter stop-loss.
- Olive and Maroon candles – overbought and oversold candles per RSI (80/15 default) levels. At this levels just watch out for a potential soon reversal. Keep in mind, price may continue going oversold/overbought for a while, so look for additional confirmations.
1) ATR (long-term trend): The flag “Buy” and “Sell” signals (can set Alerts), which happens when the price is crossing through ATR line, marking a potential trend change. If ATR matches MA and ideally there is a breakout - open position in the direction of the signal and use the ATR line as your initial hard stop-loss until you reach the first price target / take first profit. It is best to use the most recent high/low pivot or a Fibonacci extension for the first price target. Once you take it – move SL to entry to secure the profits. If the trend continues and you take the next price target, you can use the fastMA (dotted line) as your dynamic stop-loss to ride the trend. Use the bold white line (long-term support and resistance) where price may certainly reverse where you can close your position completely if you day-trading Options.
2) MA (scalping): The small green and red triangles below/above the bars (can set Alerts), which appear when the price “touches” the fast MA (dotted line) and re-bounces from it with the candle matching the direction (bullish/bearish). Make sure ATR and MA are both going in the same direction for best results. This can be used to scalp for small profits or to jump into the trend. To minimize the risk, since you are jumping into the trend, I suggest placing your stop-loss slightly above/below the candle (the one which bounced off the fast MA). Price targets are similar – most recent high/low pivot or a Fibonacci extension. Same way, once you take the first profit/reach the first price target, move SL to entry and on the next price target – use the fast MA as your dynamic stop-loss.
If you don’t know how to divide up your position - here is an example on how I take profits between the price targets:
- Open position with buying a multiple of x4 contracts
- Sell ½ of the position at first price target and move my SL to entry
- Sell ½ of the remaining position at a second price target
- Sell the rest of the position at the third price target or sell ½ of it and use the fast MA as my dynamic stop-loss for the remaining of the position
Also, keep an eye on the breakouts, especially if they go along the ATR and MA trend and keep an eye on the volume, which may help confirming the direction of the price.
HPH's FractalTradesThis indicator is based on some dark fractal magic.
Not really, it's inspired by Vladimir Poltoratskiy and basically just waits for the price to go higher or lower than a previous fractal. If that's the case and all the additional settings allow the trade to take place, it is entered with the stop loss at the last opposite fractal of were it was entered (so if we enter a trade because the price went higher than the last up fractal, the sl is at the last down fractal).
The trades are visualised with a stop loss and 3 take profits levels (at a 1:1, 2,1:1 and 4:1 risk/reward ratio). The stop loss will trail once a certain take profit level is reached. Enjoy!
The settings:
LiveVersion : If ticked it will use close for stop losses and take profits. If unticked high and low will be used. Neither is accurate when backtesting as there is no intrabar data...
CancelEarly : Swings trade in the opposite direction when an opposite signal is received. If unticked the trade will continue until a tp or sl is hit.
ShowStats : Show a table in the top right displaying how many times the stop losses or take profits got hit.
FractalPeriods : Number of bars that are required for a fractal. E.g. if it's 2, 2 bars need to be lower on the left and right of a candle for it to print an up fractal.
MinFractalDiv : If this is bigger than 0, it will not allow new fractals to print unless they are at least a percentage based amount bigger than the last one. So this can be used to filter out fractals that are in the same range. Bigger value = more aggressive filtering!
TicksOnFractal : Tick based offset to add onto the fractals to enter trades. E.g. if it's 5 and the price goes above an up fractal, it needs to go up 5 more ticks to enter a trade.
UseFilter, FilterMultMin and FilterMultMax : If ticked, trades are limited to the once in the specified range (distance of the stop loss). E.g. if FilterMultMax is 0.05, the stop loss can not be bigger than 5% of the assets price for the trade to take place.

Modifiable risk to reward ratio.
I will make a video of how to use this indicator next week, explaining all the features and more!
Hope you like it! Don't forget to let us know what we should change or improve. Thanks, and have a great day!
STRATEGY ENTRY RULES
LONG
When CMF is above 0 and price is under EMA. Also MACD has made a double cross above the zero line (meaning one cross down and one cross up by the MACD line). Then go long!
Note:
MACD or Signal must return under 0 in order to start a new position
If either of the MACD lines touches the 0 line before entry, we skip the trade and wait for the next signal.
SHORT
When CMF is under 0 and price is under EMA. Also MACD has made a double cross under the zero line (meaning one cross up and one cross down by the MACD line). Then go short!
Note:
MACD or Signal must return under 0 in order to start a new position.
If either of the MACD lines touches the 0 line before entry, we skip the trade and wait for the next signal.
TAKE PROFIT
When price hits the exit price (calculated from stop loss with the risk ratio), then exit with 50% of the position. The other 50% will stay open until the price hits the supertrend or the base stop loss.
STOP LOSS
When price hits stop loss then exit the position. Stop loss is calculated from the Supertrend and it is a trailing one, meaning it changes based on the movement of the price.
QUANTITY TO BUY
The quantity to buy is based on the Risk Per Trade % attribute. This means that we can set how much money we want to risk on one trade. Meaning that if we lose that particular position, then a Risk Per Trade % value of our equity will be lost.
Example: if you set the Risk Per Trade % to 1 % and you have a 100$ account balance, then if you loose the trade you will loose 1$ max.

Red and Green Ignored Bar by Oliver VelezOn this occasion I present a script that detects Ignored Red Candles and Ignored Green Candles, basically it is a Price Action event that indicates a possible continuation of the current trend and gives the opportunity to climb it with a Very tight risk, before delving into detail I would like to leave this note:
Note: the detection of this event does not guarantee that the signal will be good, the trader must have the ability to determine its quality based on aspects such as trend, maturity, support / resistance levels, expansion / contraction of the market, risk / benefit, etc, if you do not have knowledge about this you should not use this indicator since using it without a robust trading plan and experience could cause you to partially or totally lose your money, if this is your case you should train before If you try to extract money from the market, this script was created to be another tool in your trading plan in order to configure the rules at your discretion, execute them consistently and have AUTOMATIC ALERTS when the event occurs, which is where I find more value because you can have many instruments waiting for the event to be generated, in the time frame you want and without having to observe the mer When the alert is generated, the Trader should evaluate the quality of the alert and define whether or not to execute it (higher timeframes, they can give you more time to execute the operation correctly).
Let's continue….
This event was created by Oliver Velez recognized trader / mentor of price action, the event has a very interesting particularity since it allows to take a position with a very limited risk in trend movements, this achieves favorable operations of good ratio and small losses when taking An adjusted risk, if the trade works, a good ratio is quickly achieved and we agree with a key point in the “Keep small losses and big profits” trading, this makes it easier to have a positive mathematical hope when your level of Success is not very high, so leave you in the field of profitability.
THE EVENT:
The event has a bullish configuration (Ignored Red Candle) and a bearish configuration (Ignored Green Candle), below I detail the “Hard” rules (later I explain why “Hard”):
1- Last 3 bars have to be GREEN-RED-GREEN (possible bullish configuration) or RED-GREEN-RED (possible bearish configuration), the first bar is called Control Bar, the second is called Ignored Bar and the third Signal Bar as shown in the following image:
2- Be in a trend determined by simple moving averages (Slow of 20 periods and Fast of 8 periods), as a general rule you can take the direction of MA20 but the Trader has to determine if there is a trend movement or not.
3- Control bar of good range, little tail and with a body greater than 55%.
4- Ignored bar preferably narrow range, little tail and that is located in the upper 1/3 of the control bar.
5- Signal bar cannot override the minimum of the ignored bar.
6- Activation / Confirmation of event by means of signal bar in overcoming the body of the ignored bar.
Some examples of ignored bars (with “Hard” and “Flexible” rules):
Features and configuration of the indicator:
To access the indicator settings, press the wheel next to the indicator name VVI_VRI "Configuration options".
- Operation mode (Filtering Type):
• Filtering Complete: all filters activated according to the configuration below.

• Paint ignored bar: when selected, paint the ignored bar.
- Signal bar configuration
• You cannot override the minimum of the ignored bar: when selected, the condition is added that the signal bar cannot override the minimum of the ignored bar.
• Paint signal bar: when selected, paint the signal bar.
• See arrow: when selected it shows the direction arrow of the possible movement.
• See bear and arrow: when selected it shows bear and arrow label
• See bull and arrow: when selected it shows bull and arrow label
The following image shows the ignored bar and painted signal:
- Take profit / loss
The profit / loss taking varies depending on the trader and its risk / monetary plan, the proposal is a recommendation based on the nature of the event that is to have a small risk unit (stop below the minimum of the ignored bar), look for objectives in ratios greater than 2: 1 and eliminate the risk in 1: 1 by taking the stop to BE, all parameters are configurable and are the following:
• See recommended stop loss and take profit: trace the levels of Stop, BE, TP1 and TP2, as well as their prices to know them quickly based on the assumed risk
• To: select which event you want to draw the SL and TP (VRI, VVI)
• Extend stop loss line x bars: allows extending the stop line by x number of bars
• Extend take profit line x bars: allows extending the stop line by x number of bars
• Ratio to move to break even: allows you to select the minimum ratio to move stop to break even (default 1: 1)
• Take profit 1 ratio: allows you to select the ratio for take profit 1 (default 2: 1)
• Take profit 2 ratio: allows you to select the ratio for take profit 2 (default 4: 1)
- Alerts
• It is possible to configure the following alerts:
-VRI DETECTED
-VVI DETECTED
-VRI / VVI DETECTED
Final Notes:
- The term hard rules refers to the fact that an event is sought with the rules detailed above to obtain a high quality event but this brings 2 situations to consider, less
number of events and events that are generated in a strong impulse may be leaked, a very large control bar followed by an ignored narrow body away from moving averages, despite having a good chance of continuing, taking a stop very tight in a strong impulse you can touch it by the simple fact of the own volatility at that time.
- The setting of the parameters “Minimum body percentage% (control bar)”, “Above x% of the control bar (bar ignored)” and “Cannot override the minimum of the ignored bar” can bring large Benefits in terms of number of events and that can also be of high quality, feel free to find the best configuration for your instrument to operate.
- It is recommended to look for trending events, near moving averages and at an early stage of it.
- The display of several nearby VRIs or VVIs in an advanced trend may indicate a depletion of it.
- The alerts can be worked in 2 ways: at the closing of the candle (confirms event but the risk unit may be larger or smaller) or immediately the body of the ignored bar is exceeded, in case you are operating from the mobile and miss many events because of the short time I recommend that you operate in a superior time frame to have more time.
- The indicator is configured with “flexible” rules to have more events, but without any important criteria, each trader has to look for the best configuration that suits his instrument.
- It is recommended to partially close the operation based on the ratio and always keep a part of the position to apply manual trailing stop and try to maximize profits.
The code is open feel free to use and modify it, a mention in credits is appreciated.

Greetings to all, I wish you much green!
Trailing % StopTrailing % Stop is a simple Stop Loss indicator which users have to define a % percent rate to trail the price like MOVING STOP LOSS "MOST" Indicator.
The main difference is MOST refers to exponential moving averages although Trail % Stop refers to source price.
Default price of source is CLOSE price which can be optimized by the user.
"What is a Trailing Stop-Loss?
A trailing stop-loss order is a special type of trade order where the stop-loss price is not set at a single, absolute dollar amount, but instead is set at a certain percentage or a certain dollar amount below the market price. A trailing stop-loss is sometime referred to simply as a trailing stop.
How a Trailing Stop-Loss Works
When the price goes up, it drags the trailing stop-loss along with it, but when the price stops going up, the stop-loss price remains at the level it was dragged to.
A trailing stop-loss is a way to automatically protect yourself from an investment's downside while locking in the upside.
For example, you buy Company XYZ for $10. You decide that you don't want to lose more than 5% on your investment, but you want to be able to take advantage of any price increases. You also don't want to have to constantly monitor your trades to lock in gains.
You set a trailing stop on XYZ that orders your broker to automatically sell if the price dips more than 5% below the market price.
The benefits of the trailing stop are two-fold. First, if the stock moves against you, the trailing stop will trigger when XYZ hits $9.50, protecting you from futher downside.
But if the stock goes up to $20, the trigger price for the trailing stop comes up along with it. At a price of $20, the trailing stop will only trigger a sale if the stock drops below $19. This helps you lock in most of the gains from the stock's rally.
In the example, you could also decide you don't want to lose more than $2 on your $10 investment. If the stock goes up to $20, the trailing stop-loss would drag along behind the price and only trigger a sale if the stock falls to $18.
Why a Trailing Stop-Loss Matters
A trailing stop-loss can be good for investors who may not have enough discipline to lock-in gains or cut losses. It removes some of the emotion from the trading process and offers some capital protection automatically.
There are some drawbacks to consider. First, you need to consider your trailing stop percentage or amount very carefully. If you're investing in a particularly volatile stock, you could find the stop level triggered fairly frequently."
Long Short signals and alarms are also included.
™TradeChartist Entry/Exit Indicator™TradeChartist Entry/Exit Indicator is an easy to use indicator that plots very high probability BUY and SELL signals on the chart along with an optional dynamic trigger line for SELL and BUY which can be used as a reference for Stop Loss/ Trailing Stop Loss.
What does the ™TradeChartist Entry/Exit Indicator do?
Plots very high probability BUY and SELL signals on chart
Plots dynamic BUY or SELL trigger lines that can be used to
---------1. Set Stop Loss reference or Trailing Stop Loss.
---------2. Anticipate change in trend/momentum when price breaches the trigger line.
Plots BUY and SELL price lines which are Candle open prices when BUY/SELL signals are posted.
Alert traders when BUY/SELL signal is generated and Trigger for BUY/SELL is breached.
Plots Background vertical Signal break lines at BUYs in green and at SELLs in red.
Plots % Gains based on candle close in real-time and based on candle high for BUY/candle low for SELL on previous candles calculated from the candle open price at BUY/SELL.
Plots RSI colour candles based on user preferred Overbought and Oversold RSI levels from indicator settings.
Paints background colour for BUY and SELL zones which can be changed from indicator settings under Style tab to personalise the chart screen.
What markets can this indicator be used on?
Forex
Stocks
Commodities
Cryptocurrencies
and almost any asset on Trading View
Works really well when there is good volume, volatility or both in the asset observed/traded.
Does this indicator repaint?
No and Yes
Once the confirmed BUY (in green) and SELL (in red) signals are posted after a candle close, it doesn't repaint.
Repainting happens for real time BUY and SELL trigger plots on the current candle as price tries to breach the trigger line.
For confirmed BUY and SELL alerts, use alerts on candle close. Real-time BUY and SELL trigger alerts can also be set.
Does the indicator send alerts when a signal is generated?
Yes, traders can get alerts by setting Trading View alerts for BUY/SELL Signals and BUY/SELL Triggers. For confirmed BUY/SELL alerts, 'Once per bar close' must be used.
Why are there two Signal Generator types in the indicator settings?
The two types of signal generators cater to almost all types of traders and trade types. Some assets perform well with Type 1 and some assets with Type 2. Also some traders prefer Type 1 and some prefer Type 2 based on variation in frequency of signals on the asset observed. Both types can be used along with 'Use Heikin Ashi Candles' from the indicator settings to have more combinations to test on an asset for maximising gains.
Type 1 on GBPUSD 1hr chart
Type 2 on GBPUSD 1hr chart
Type 1 normally works well with most types of assets.
Should the indicator be used on normal candles or Heikin Ashi candles?
The indicator can be used on either of the candle types. If signals from Heikin Ashi chart needs to be plotted on normal chart, just check 'Use Heikin Ashi Candles' from indicator settings. It may not be exact, but very close as it mimics Heikin Ashi chart trend.
Heikin Ashi charts are recommended to spot trends and reversals but they don't reflect real OHLC values in the candles, so BUY/SELL entry price points may not be ideal using Heikin Ashi charts especially when there are gaps in price action (example Stocks, FOREX, Commodities). For real OHLC prices and to know exact price points for entering/exiting trade, use normal candlestick charts. It is purely for this reason Heikin Ashi chart signals can be mimicked on normal candles using 'Use Heikin Ashi Candles' option from settings without having to switch between the two.
It can be seen from the GOLD 1hr charts above (Heikin Ashi on left and normal candlestick chart on right), the indicator mimics signals sensibly (not copy) and doesn't use same entry values as Heikin Ashi chart to aid the trader with practical trade execution.
How do the Trigger Lines work and should they be used?
Trigger for BUY/SELL lines are coded to adapt to bull and bear power in the asset trading environment and helps the trader to anticipate change in trend based on direction of price momentum when enabled from indicator settings (On by default). Traders can use trigger lines as reference for Stop Loss points. For example, when a BUY signal is posted, the 'Trigger for SELL' can be used as initial Stop Loss reference and as price starts going up, the trigger line starts moving up enabling the trader to use it as a trailing stop loss point which helps secure or lock profits as they act as ideal support/resistance lines based on the type of trade too. BUY/SELL Trigger lines can be enabled or disabled from indicator settings 'Inputs' tab.
Also, the trigger lines can alert traders to anticipate change in trend/momentum when price hits them and it helps them take a position, either Long or Short when confirmed BUY/SELL signal is posted. As price tries to breach the trigger lines, they change from 'Trigger to BUY/SELL' to 'BUY/SELL Triggered' as shown below on 1hr Gold chart. This feature is coded purely to signal the trader a potential change in trend/momentum. The trigger lines also act as strong support/resistance so only a confirmed close above them will ensure a High Probability Trade.
It should also be noted that price tends to test the BUY/SELL trigger lines to see if a breach is possible. A rejection at trigger lines could mean trend continuation in the signal direction. Traders could use other trend indicators like Ichimoku cloud, stoch, TRIX etc. to make an informed trade decision here. In the chart below, the 'BUY triggered' label has changed back to 'Trigger for BUY' as price failed to close above it.
What is the use of 'Plot BUY/SELL Price Line'?
Enabling BUY/SELL price line from settings (On by default) plots the price line corresponding to candle open when BUY/SELL signals were posted on the chart by the indicator. Open price is used as it is close to the trigger lines and is a fair reference point for indicator to calculate the gains plot on chart since BUY/SELL signals.
Can trade gains be plotted on chart and how are they calculated?
To show percentage gains on chart, just enable 'Show % Gains on Chart' from indicator settings (Off by default). As explained above, % gains are calculated from BUY/SELL candle Open price to high (for Long trades) or low (for Short trades) and to current candle close (for both Long and Short trades) as it helps see real-time gains from BUY/SELL candle Open price. The % gains are plotted as below.
0 - 0.75% - ↑ in green
0.75-1.5% - 1% in green
1.51-2.5% - 2% in green
2.51-3.5% - 3% in green
3.51-4.5% - 4% in green
4.51-5.5% - 5% in green
5.51-10.5% - 5+% in green
10.51-20% - 10+% in green
20+% - 20+% in green
Down from Entry - ↓ in red
What are RSI Colour Candles?
RSI Colour Candles are visual candle plots in colour (Blue when RSI>60, Yellow when RSI<30 and On by default) that help trades spot RSI levels at a glance visually from the chart in real-time without the need for another indicator on screen. Traders can also choose the source to be used for plotting RSI colour candles from indicator settings input tab and change candle colours from indicator settings style tab. The length for RSI calculation is 14 and works well for almost any trading scenario and cannot be changed from indicator settings. The default overbought RSI is set at 60 as it helps spot momentum increase and big moves happen above 60 RSI. When deciding to sell or buy, RSI can be tuned from settings to spot decent entry or exit. For example, RSI>80 on a red Heikin Ashi candle (blue body and red border) after an uptrend could signal potential sell-off or RSI<30 on a green Heikin Ashi candle (yellow body and green border) after a down trend could signal a good move up. In the example daily chart of RVN-BTC below, RSI>75 on a red Heikin Ashi candle signalled a potential sell off way before the actual SELL signal plot on chart.
What is the use of Signal Break Line Plot and Paint Background options from indicator settings?
Signal break lines can be useful if traders prefer to switch off BUY/SELL signals from indicator settings to show where previous signals were generated. (On by default)
Paint Background is just a nice to have feature that paints the signal zones to personalise the chart screen. (Off by default). The background paint colours can be changed from indicator settings style tab.
4hr SPX chart below showcases the difference when the Signal Break Lines and Background Paint options are used with BUY/SELL signals switched off.
Important Note:
When using this indicator on a chart, check 'Scale Price Chart Only' and 'Auto (Fits Data to Screen)' by clicking on settings wheel on the bottom right under the chart screen as shown below. If not checked, the chart screen will look like one on the left as shown below.

Momentum Trader Strategy 3.0Momentum Trader 3.0 is a momentum trading strategy which uses volume to confirm market momentum driven moves.
By default it only trades between 0900 and 1530 (designed for futures trading and can be toggled to 24/7)
No repaint issues, what you see is real
Toggles allow you to enable Long or Short independently which may work better or worse for your market
Designed primarily for Day Trading (1-15m interval)
Presently only the Short side is optimized, the Long works but overtrades a bit. I will be adding an option to remove the less useful signals and improve performance.
Momentum Trader is a real and successful momentum strategy (which I use myself). It isn't a miracle 'always win' strategy but it is a steady workhorse. By combining high probability momentum trades and auto stop-losses, it takes a good slice of most rallies, a big slice of the grand drops, and avoids heavy sudden losses.
Momentum Trader can be used in any timeframe. Your success depends on the volatility of the individual market. I recommend trading at 10m and below for high volatility instruments like ES/SPX while low volatility instruments can be traded at the 1h and beyond. At the level of 1D+ it also works as well but naturally as a momentum strategy it may take a while to pivot.
Momentum Trader provides you with 3 long and 2 short entries which represent different levels of risk/reward. Like any real strategy, there can be periods of chop where the strategy will lose (small based on stop-loss) if the market is chopping very quickly back and forth or pivoting suddenly. As a rule, Momentum Trader attempts to avoid most of that by typically flagging trends which are established and confirmed. Different signals give you different degrees of confirmation and thus different risk/reward.
Initial balance - weeklyWeekly Initial Balance (IB) — Indicator Description
The Weekly Initial Balance (IB) is the price range (High–Low) established during the week’s first trading session (most commonly Monday). You can measure it over the entire day or just the first X hours (e.g. 60 or 120 minutes). Once that session ends, the IB High and IB Low define the key levels where the initial weekly range formed.
Why Measure the Weekly IB?
Week-Opening Sentiment:
Monday’s range often sets the tone for the rest of the week. Trading above the IB High signals bullish control; trading below the IB Low signals bearish control.
Key Liquidity Zones:
Large institutions tend to place orders around these extremes, so you’ll frequently see tests, breakouts, or rejections at these levels.
Support & Resistance:
The IB High and IB Low become natural barriers. Price will often return to them, bounce off them, or break through them—ideal spots for entries and exits.
Volatility Forecast:
The width of the IB (High minus Low) indicates whether to expect a volatile week (wide IB) or a quieter one (narrow IB).
Significance of IB Levels
Breakout:
A clear break above the IB High (for longs) or below the IB Low (for shorts) can ignite a strong trending move.
Fade:
A rejection off the IB High/Low during low momentum (e.g. low volume or pin-bar formations) offers a high-probability reversal trade.
Mid-Point:
The 50% level of the IB range often “magnetizes” price back to it, providing entry points for continuation or reversal strategies.
Three Core Monday IB Strategies
A. Breakout (Open-Range Breakout)
Entry: Wait for 1–2 candles (e.g. 5-minute) to close above IB High (long) or below IB Low (short).
Stop-Loss: A few pips below IB High (long) or above IB Low (short).
Profit-Target: 2–3× your risk (Reward:Risk ≥ 2:1).
Best When: You spot a clear impulse—such as a strong pre-open volume spike or news-driven move.
B. Fade (Reversal at Extremes)
Entry: When price tests IB High but shows weakening momentum (shrinking volume, upper-wick candles), enter short; vice versa for IB Low and longs.
Stop-Loss: Just beyond the IB extreme you’re fading.
Profit-Target: Back toward the IB mid-point (50% level) or all the way to the opposite IB extreme.
Best When: Monday’s action is range-bound and lacks a clear directional trend.
C. Mid-Point Trading
Entry: When price returns to the 50% level of the IB range.
In an up-trend: buy if it bounces off mid-point back toward IB High.
In a down-trend: sell if it reverses off mid-point back toward IB Low.
Stop-Loss: Just below the nearest swing-low (for longs) or above the nearest swing-high (for shorts).
Profit-Target: To the corresponding IB extreme (High or Low).
Best When: You see a strong initial move away from the IB, followed by a pullback to the mid-point.
Usage Steps
Configure your session: Measure IB over your chosen Monday timeframe (whole day or first X hours).
Choose your strategy: Align Breakout, Fade, or Mid-Point entries with the current market context (trend vs. range).
Manage risk: Keep risk per trade ≤ 1% of account and maintain at least a 2:1 Reward:Risk ratio.
Backtest & forward-test: Verify performance over multiple Mondays and in a paper-trading environment before going live.

TitanGrid L/S SuperEngineTitanGrid L/S SuperEngine
Experimental Trend-Aligned Grid Signal Engine for Long & Short Execution
🔹 Overview
TitanGrid is an advanced, real-time signal engine built around a tactical grid structure.
It manages Long and Short trades using trend-aligned entries, layered scaling, and partial exits.
Unlike traditional strategy() -based scripts, TitanGrid runs as an indicator() , but includes its own full internal simulation engine.
This allows it to track capital, equity, PnL, risk exposure, and trade performance bar-by-bar — effectively simulating a custom backtest, while remaining compatible with real-time alert-based execution systems.
The concept was born from the fusion of two prior systems:
Assassin’s Grid (grid-based execution and structure) + Super 8 (trend-filtering, smart capital logic), both developed under the AssassinsGrid framework.
🔹 Disclaimer
This is an experimental tool intended for research, testing, and educational use.
It does not provide guaranteed outcomes and should not be interpreted as financial advice.
Use with demo or simulated accounts before considering live deployment.
🔹 Execution Logic
Trend direction is filtered through a custom SuperTrend engine. Once confirmed:
• Long entries trigger on pullbacks, exiting progressively as price moves up
• Short entries trigger on rallies, exiting as price declines
Grid levels are spaced by configurable percentage width, and entries scale dynamically.
🔹 Stop Loss Mechanism
TitanGrid uses a dual-layer stop system:
• A static stop per entry, placed at a fixed percentage distance matching the grid width
• A trend reversal exit that closes the entire position if price crosses the SuperTrend in the opposite direction
Stops are triggered once per cycle, ensuring predictable and capital-aware behavior.
🔹 Key Features
• Dual-side grid logic (Long-only, Short-only, or Both)
• SuperTrend filtering to enforce directional bias
• Adjustable grid spacing, scaling, and sizing
• Static and dynamic stop-loss logic
• Partial exits and reset conditions
• Webhook-ready alerts (browser-based automation compatible)
• Internal simulation of equity, PnL, fees, and liquidation levels
• Real-time dashboard for full transparency
🔹 Best Use Cases
TitanGrid performs best in structured or mean-reverting environments.
It is especially well-suited to assets with the behavioral profile of ETH — reactive, trend-intraday, and prone to clean pullback formations.
While adaptable to multiple timeframes, it shows strongest performance on the 15-minute chart , offering a balance of signal frequency and directional clarity.

🔹 Panel Reference
The real-time dashboard displays performance metrics, capital state, and position behavior:
• Asset Type – Automatically detects the instrument class (e.g., Crypto, Stock, Forex) from symbol metadata
• Equity – Total simulated capital: realized PnL + floating PnL + remaining cash
• Available Cash – Capital not currently allocated to any position
• Used Margin – Capital locked in open trades, based on position size and leverage
• Net Profit – Realized gain/loss after commissions and fees
• Raw Net Profit – Gross result before trading costs
• Floating PnL – Unrealized profit or loss from active positions
• ROI – Return on initial capital, including realized and floating PnL. Leverage directly impacts this metric, amplifying both gains and losses relative to account size.
• Long/Short Size & Avg Price – Open position sizes and volume-weighted average entry prices
• Leverage & Liquidation – Simulated effective leverage and projected liquidation level
• Hold – Best-performing hold side (Long or Short) over the session
• Hold Efficiency – Performance efficiency during holding phases, relative to capital used
• Profit Factor – Ratio of gross profits to gross losses (realized)
• Payoff Ratio – Average profit per win / average loss per loss
• Win Rate – Percent of profitable closes (including partial exits)
• Expectancy – Net average result per closed trade
• Max Drawdown – Largest recorded drop in equity during the session
• Commission Paid – Simulated trading costs: maker, taker, funding
• Long / Short Trades – Count of entry signals per side
• Time Trading – Number of bars spent in active positions
• Volume / Month – Extrapolated 30-day trading volume estimate
• Min Capital – Lowest equity level recorded during the session
🔹 Reference Ranges by Strategy Type
Use the following metrics as reference depending on the trading style:
Grid / Mean Reversion
• Profit Factor: 1.2 – 2.0
• Payoff Ratio: 0.5 – 1.2
• Win Rate: 50% – 70% (based on partial exits)
• Expectancy: 0.05% – 0.25%
• Drawdown: Moderate to high
• Commission Impact: High
Trend-Following
• Profit Factor: 1.5 – 3.0
• Payoff Ratio: 1.5 – 3.5
• Win Rate: 30% – 50%
• Expectancy: 0.3% – 1.0%
• Drawdown: Low to moderate
Scalping / High-Frequency
• Profit Factor: 1.1 – 1.6
• Payoff Ratio: 0.3 – 0.8
• Win Rate: 80% – 95%
• Expectancy: 0.01% – 0.05%
• Volume / Month: Very high
Breakout Strategies
• Profit Factor: 1.4 – 2.2
• Payoff Ratio: 1.2 – 2.0
• Win Rate: 35% – 60%
• Expectancy: 0.2% – 0.6%
• Drawdown: Can be sharp after failed breakouts
🔹 Note on Performance Simulation
TitanGrid includes internal accounting of fees, slippage, and funding costs.
While its logic is designed for precision and capital efficiency, performance is naturally affected by exchange commissions.
In frictionless environments (e.g., zero-fee simulation), its high-frequency logic could — in theory — extract substantial micro-edges from the market.
However, real-world conditions introduce limits, and all results should be interpreted accordingly.
Pucci Trend EMA-SMA Crossover with TolerancePucci Trend EMA-SMA Crossover with Tolerance
This indicator helps identify market trends and generates trading signals based on the crossover between an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and a Simple Moving Average (SMA) with an adjustable tolerance threshold. The signals work as follows:
Buy Signal (B) -> Triggers when the EMA crosses above the SMA, exceeding a user-defined tolerance (in basis points). Optionally, a price filter can require the high or low to be below the EMA for confirmation.
Sell Signal (S) -> Triggers when the SMA crosses above the EMA, exceeding the tolerance. The optional price filter may require the high or low to be above the EMA.
The tolerance helps reduce false signals by requiring a minimum distance between the moving averages before confirming a crossover. The price filter adds an extra confirmation layer by checking if price action respects the EMA level.
Important Notes:
1º No profitability guarantee: This tool is for analysis only and may generate losses.
2º "As Is" disclaimer: Provided without warranties or responsibility for trading outcomes.
3º Use Stop Loss: Users must determine their own risk management.
4º Parameter adjustment needed: Optimal MA periods and tolerance vary by timeframe.

- **Implementation**:
- Take profit distance = Stop loss distance × Risk-reward ratio
- Higher ratios require fewer winning trades for profitability
- Lower ratios increase win rate but reduce average profit
### Filter Combinations
The strategy allows for simultaneous application of multiple filters:
- **Recommended Combinations**:
- Trending markets: RSI + KEMAD filters
- Ranging markets: Bollinger Bands + Volatility filters
- All markets: Volume filter as minimum requirement
- **Performance Impact**:
- Each additional filter reduces the number of trades
- Quality of remaining trades typically improves
- Optimal combination depends on market conditions and timeframe
### Multi-Timeframe Filter Applications

## Conclusion
The ₿ober XM v2.0 represents a significant evolution in trading strategy design, combining traditional technical analysis with machine learning elements and multi-timeframe analysis. The core strength of this system lies in its adaptability and recognition of market asymmetry.
### Market Asymmetry and Adaptive Approach
The strategy acknowledges a fundamental truth about markets: bullish and bearish phases behave differently and should be treated as distinct environments. The dual-channel system with separate parameters for long and short positions directly addresses this asymmetry, allowing for optimized performance regardless of market direction.
### Targeted Backtesting Philosophy
It's counterproductive to run backtests over excessively long periods. Markets evolve continuously, and strategies that worked in previous market regimes may be ineffective in current conditions. Instead:
- Test specific market phases separately (bull markets, bear markets, range-bound periods)
- Regularly re-optimize parameters as market conditions change
- Focus on recent performance with higher weight than historical results
- Test across multiple timeframes to ensure robustness
### Multi-Timeframe Analysis as a Game-Changer
The integration of multi-timeframe analysis fundamentally transforms the strategy's effectiveness:
- **Increased Safety**: Higher timeframe confirmations reduce false signals and improve trade quality
- **Context Awareness**: Decisions made with awareness of larger trends reduce adverse entries
- **Adaptable Precision**: Apply strict filters on lower timeframes while maintaining awareness of broader conditions
- **Reduced Noise**: Higher timeframe data naturally filters market noise that can trigger poor entries
The ₿ober XM v2.0 provides traders with a framework that acknowledges market complexity while offering practical tools to navigate it. With proper setup, realistic expectations, and attention to changing market conditions, it delivers a sophisticated approach to systematic trading that can be continuously refined and optimized.

If you set Entry Price to 0, it will default to the current price. If Stop Loss or Take Profit are set to 0, they'll default to 5% below or above entry price respectively.
4. Understanding the Visual Elements
Yellow line : Your entry price
Green line : Your take profit level
Red line : Your stop loss level
Green zone : The profit zone (between entry and take profit)
Red zone : The loss zone (between entry and stop loss)
Information panel : Shows all calculations and trade details
5. Adjusting Your Trade on the Chart
The beauty of this tool is its interactivity:
You can drag any of the lines directly on the chart to adjust entry, stop loss, or take profit
If you drag the take profit above the entry , the indicator automatically sets up for a Long trade
If you drag the take profit below the entry , it automatically configures for a Short trade
All calculations and visuals update in real-time as you adjust the lines
This means you can quickly test different scenarios and see how they affect your position size and potential profit/loss.
6. Reading the Information Panel
The information panel displays:
Account details : Your account size and currency
Risk information : Your percentage risk and the equivalent monetary amount
Position Size : The optimal lot size calculated based on your risk parameters
Price levels : Entry, Stop Loss, and Take Profit with distances in ticks
Risk/Reward ratio : Shown as 1:X (where X is the reward relative to 1 unit of risk)
Potential outcomes : The exact amount you stand to gain or lose on this trade
Trade direction : Whether this is a Long or Short trade
Visual Settings
You can customize the appearance in the "Visual" settings group:
Adjust colors for profit and loss zones
Change the transparency of colored zones
Toggle the filling of spaces between lines
Adjust how far the lines extend beyond the last candle
Practical Tips
Always double-check your "Value per 0.01 lot per tick" setting for the specific instrument you're trading
For Forex major pairs, the standard is usually $1 per pip for 0.01 lots
For other instruments, consult your broker's specifications
The indicator works best when you place your stop loss at a logical market level (support/resistance, swing high/low) rather than a fixed percentage
Final Thoughts
This Position Size Calculator helps remove emotion from your trading by objectively calculating your position size based on your predefined risk parameters. It ensures that you maintain consistent risk across all your trades, regardless of the stop loss distance, which is a key component of successful risk management.
Remember: The most important goal in trading is capital preservation. This tool helps you ensure that each trade risks only what you've decided is acceptable for your trading strategy.
EMA Cross Pro v2.5 | True PnL Tracking + Break Even SystemEMA Cross Pro v2.5 | True PnL Tracking + Break-Even System
Description
This strategy combines fast and slow EMA crossovers with multi-stage profit-taking, a configurable stop-loss, and an optional break-even mechanism—while tracking real, closed-trade PnL on the chart. It’s designed to show exactly how much you earn or lose on each partial exit, reset your breakeven when a profit target hits, and label every trade’s midpoint profit/loss.
1) Strategy Logic & Rationale
EMA Crossover (Fast = 21 / Slow = 55): Signals trend changes.
Partial Profit-Taking:
TP1 at +0.5% on 60% of position
TP2 at +1.0% on 30%
TP3 at +1.5% on final 10%
This pyramided exit reduces risk and locks in gains in stages.
Stop-Loss at 1.0% ensures maximum risk per trade.
Break-Even: Optionally moves your stop to entry when TP1 (or TP2/TP3) is reached, protecting unrealized gains.
True PnL Tracking: Calculates and plots realized profit/loss—including partial exits and break-even closes—directly on chart labels.
Alerts: Flexible alarms for entry, each TP, SL, and break-even activation.
2) Default Inputs & Execution

AlphaTrend++AlphaTrend++
Overview
The AlphaTrend++ is an advanced Pine Script indicator designed to help traders identify buy and sell opportunities in trending and volatile markets. Building on trend-following principles, it uses a modified Average True Range (ATR) calculation combined with volume or momentum data to plot a dynamic trend line. The indicator overlays on the price chart, displaying a colored trend line, a filled trend zone, buy/sell signals, and optional stop-loss tick labels, making it ideal for day trading or swing trading, particularly in markets like futures (e.g., MES).
What It Does
This indicator generates buy and sell signals based on the direction and momentum of a custom trend line, filtered by optional time restrictions and signal frequency logic. The trend line adapts to price action and volatility, with a filled zone highlighting trend strength. Buy/sell signals are plotted as labels, and stop-loss distances are displayed in ticks (customizable for instruments like MES). The indicator supports standard chart types for realistic signal generation.
How It Works
The indicator employs the following components:
Trend Line Calculation: A dynamic trend line is calculated using ATR adjusted by a user-defined multiplier, combined with either Money Flow Index (MFI) or Relative Strength Index (RSI) depending on volume availability. The line tracks price movements, adjusting upward or downward based on trend direction and volatility.
Trend Zone: The area between the current trend line and its value two bars prior is filled, colored green for bullish trends (upward movement) or red for bearish trends (downward movement), providing a visual cue of trend strength.
Signal Generation: Buy signals occur when the trend line crosses above its value two bars ago, and sell signals occur when it crosses below, with optional filtering to reduce signal noise (based on bar timing logic). Signals can be restricted to a 9:00–15:00 UTC trading window.
Stop-Loss Ticks: For each signal, the indicator calculates the distance to the trend line (acting as a stop-loss level) in ticks, using a user-defined tick size (default 0.25 for MES). These are displayed as labels below/above the signal.
Time Filter: An optional filter limits signals to 9:00–15:00 UTC, aligning with active trading sessions like the US market open.
The indicator ensures compatibility with standard chart types (e.g., candlestick or bar charts) to avoid unrealistic results associated with non-standard types like Heikin Ashi or Renko.
How to Use It
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to a candlestick or bar chart on TradingView.
Configure Settings:
Multiplier: Adjust the ATR multiplier (default 1.0) to control trend line sensitivity. Higher values widen the stop-loss distance.
Common Period: Set the ATR and MFI/RSI period (default 14) for trend calculations.
No Volume Data: Enable if volume data is unavailable (e.g., for certain forex pairs), switching from MFI to RSI.
Tick Size: Set the tick size for stop-loss calculations (default 0.25 for MES futures).
Show Buy/Sell Signals: Toggle signal labels (default enabled).
Show Stop Loss Ticks: Toggle stop-loss tick labels (default enabled).
Use Time Filter: Restrict signals to 9:00–15:00 UTC (default disabled).
Use Filtered Signals: Enable to reduce signal frequency using bar timing logic (default enabled).
Interpret Signals:
Buy Signal: A blue “BUY” label below the bar indicates a potential long entry (trend line crossover, passing filters).
Sell Signal: A red “SELL” label above the bar indicates a potential short entry (trend line crossunder, passing filters).
Trend Zone: Green fill suggests bullish momentum; red fill suggests bearish momentum.
Stop-Loss Ticks: Gray labels show the stop-loss distance in ticks, helping with risk management.
Monitor Context: Use the trend line and filled zone to confirm the market’s direction before acting on signals.
Unique Features
Adaptive Trend Line: Combines ATR with MFI or RSI to create a responsive trend line that adjusts to volatility and market conditions.
Tick-Based Stop-Loss: Displays stop-loss distances in ticks, customizable for specific instruments, aiding precise risk management.
Signal Filtering: Optional bar timing logic reduces false signals, improving reliability in choppy markets.
Trend Zone Visualization: The filled zone between trend line values enhances trend clarity, making it easier to assess momentum.
Time-Restricted Trading: Optional 9:00–15:00 UTC filter aligns signals with high-liquidity sessions.
Notes
Use on standard candlestick or bar charts to ensure accurate signals.
Test the indicator on a demo account to optimize settings for your market and timeframe.
Combine with other analysis (e.g., support/resistance, volume spikes) for better decision-making.
The indicator is not a standalone system; use it as part of a broader trading strategy.
Limitations
Signals may lag in highly volatile or low-liquidity markets due to ATR-based calculations.
The 9:00–15:00 UTC time filter may not suit all markets; disable it for 24-hour assets like forex or crypto.
Stop-loss tick calculations assume consistent tick sizes; verify compatibility with your instrument.
This indicator is designed for traders seeking a robust, trend-following tool with customizable risk management and signal filtering, optimized for active trading sessions.
Follow Line Strategy Version 2.5 (React HTF)Follow Line Strategy v2.5 (React HTF) - TradingView Script Usage
This strategy utilizes a "Follow Line" concept based on Bollinger Bands and ATR to identify potential trading opportunities. It includes advanced features like optional working hours filtering, higher timeframe (HTF) trend confirmation, and improved trend-following entry/exit logic. Version 2.5 introduces reactivity to HTF trend changes for more adaptive trading.
Key Features:
Follow Line: The core of the strategy. It dynamically adjusts based on price breakouts beyond Bollinger Bands, using either the low/high or ATR-adjusted levels.
Bollinger Bands: Uses a standard Bollinger Bands setup to identify overbought/oversold conditions.
ATR Filter: Optionally uses the Average True Range (ATR) to adjust the Follow Line offset, providing a more dynamic and volatility-adjusted entry point.
Optional Trading Session Filter: Allows you to restrict trading to specific hours of the day.
Higher Timeframe (HTF) Confirmation: A significant feature that allows you to confirm trade signals with the trend on a higher timeframe. This can help to filter out false signals and improve the overall win rate.
HTF Selection Method: Choose between Auto and Manual HTF selection:
Auto: The script automatically determines the appropriate HTF based on the current chart timeframe (e.g., 1min -> 15min, 5min -> 4h, 1h -> 1D, Daily -> Monthly).
Manual: Allows you to select a specific HTF using the Manual Higher Timeframe input.
Trend-Following Entries/Exits: The strategy aims to enter trades in the direction of the established trend, using the Follow Line to define the trend.
Reactive HTF Trend Changes: v2.5 exits positions not only based on the trade timeframe (TTF) trend changing, but also when the higher timeframe trend reverses against the position. This makes the strategy more responsive to larger market movements.
Alerts: Provides buy and sell alerts for convenient trading signal notifications.
Visualizations: Plots the Follow Line for both the trade timeframe and the higher timeframe (optional), making it easy to understand the strategy's logic.
How to Use:
Add to Chart: Add the "Follow Line Strategy Version 2.5 (React HTF)" script to your TradingView chart.
Configure Settings: Customize the strategy's settings to match your trading style and preferences. Here's a breakdown of the key settings:
Indicator Settings:
ATR Period: The period used to calculate the ATR. A smaller period is more sensitive to recent price changes.
Bollinger Bands Period: The period used for the Bollinger Bands calculation. A longer period results in smoother bands.
Bollinger Bands Deviation: The number of standard deviations from the moving average that the Bollinger Bands are plotted. Higher deviations create wider bands.
Use ATR for Follow Line Offset?: Enable to use ATR to calculate the Follow Line offset. Disable to use the simple high/low.
Show Trade Signals on Chart?: Enable to show BUY/SELL labels on the chart.
Time Filter:
Use Trading Session Filter?: Enable to restrict trading to specific hours of the day.
Trading Session: The trading session to use (e.g., 0930-1600 for regular US stock market hours). Use 0000-2400 for all hours.
Higher Timeframe Confirmation:
Enable HTF Confirmation?: Enable to use the HTF trend to filter trade signals. If enabled, only trades in the direction of the HTF trend will be taken.
HTF Selection Method: Choose between "Auto" and "Manual" HTF selection.
Manual Higher Timeframe: If "Manual" is selected, choose the specific HTF (e.g., 240 for 4 hours, D for daily).
Show HTF Follow Line?: Enable to plot the HTF Follow Line on the chart.
Understanding the Signals:
Buy Signal: The price breaks above the upper Bollinger Band, and the HTF (if enabled) confirms the uptrend.
Sell Signal: The price breaks below the lower Bollinger Band, and the HTF (if enabled) confirms the downtrend.
Exit Long: The trade timeframe trend changes to downtrend or the higher timeframe trend changes to downtrend.
Exit Short: The trade timeframe trend changes to uptrend or the higher timeframe trend changes to uptrend.
Alerts:
The script includes alert conditions for buy and sell signals. To set up alerts, click the "Alerts" button in TradingView and select the desired alert condition from the script. The alert message provides the ticker and interval.
Backtesting and Optimization:
Use TradingView's Strategy Tester to backtest the strategy on different assets and timeframes.
Experiment with different settings to optimize the strategy for your specific trading style and risk tolerance. Pay close attention to the ATR Period, Bollinger Bands settings, and the HTF confirmation options.
Tips and Considerations:
HTF Confirmation: The HTF confirmation can significantly improve the strategy's performance by filtering out false signals. However, it can also reduce the number of trades.
Risk Management: Always use proper risk management techniques, such as stop-loss orders and position sizing, when trading any strategy.
Market Conditions: The strategy may perform differently in different market conditions. It's important to backtest and optimize the strategy for the specific markets you are trading.
Customization: Feel free to modify the script to suit your specific needs. For example, you could add additional filters or entry/exit conditions.
Pyramiding: The pyramiding = 0 setting prevents multiple entries in the same direction, ensuring the strategy doesn't compound losses. You can adjust this value if you prefer to pyramid into winning positions, but be cautious.
Lookahead: The lookahead = barmerge.lookahead_off setting ensures that the HTF data is calculated based on the current bar's closed data, preventing potential future peeking bias.
Trend Determination: The logic for determining the HTF trend and reacting to changes is critical. Carefully review the f_calculateHTFData function and the conditions for exiting positions to ensure you understand how the strategy responds to different market scenarios.
