Maximized Scalping On Trend (by Coinrule)" The trend is your friend. " This is one of the most famous and valuable teachings that experienced traders can give to newbies. There is a reason for that.
No matter your views about where the price moves, what matters is where the price heads to . The market is always right, and ultimately it decides who gets the profit and who has to take a loss.
The purpose of this strategy is to spot when it's the most suitable time to buy an asset profiting from a potential short-term price increase. The strategy tends to open trades frequently, closing them on average in one and a half days.
ENTRY
The buy order is placed on assets that present strong momentum when it's more likely that it is about to increase further in the short term.
To capture momentum on the asset, the rule strategy requires:
the MA50 greater than the MA100
the RSI greater than 50
The rule, then, places the order when
The price crosses above the MA9.
EXIT
This strategy comes with a stop loss and a take profit which adapt dynamically to market conditions.
The trade is closed in profit when the RSI is greater than 70 , as the trend could experience a pull-back.
Alternatively, the trade is closed when the RSI is lower than 30 , being this a sign of weakening of the trend.
Pro tip : The 1-hour time frame has proven to return the best results on average. The strategy can also work well in the 15-min time frame if you want to increase the trades' frequency.
The strategy assumes each order to trade 30% of the available capital and opens a trade at a time. A trading fee of 0.1% is taken into account.

Heatmap - Multi-Timeframe Indicators - StrategyHeatmap - Multi-Timeframe Indicators - Strategy
▪ Main features :
- 19 Timeframes: 1m, 3m, 5m, 10m, 15m, 30m, 45m, 1h, 2h, 3h, 4h, 5h, 6h, 8h, 10h, 12h, 1D, 1W, 1M
- 6 indicators per timeframe
- choose specific timeframes for indicators (example - 1 hour)
- or choose specific timeframe ranges (example - 1 hour to 1 month)
The general idea is that the higher timeframe signals are stronger than the lower timeframe ones.
When a trend is starting, it is first visible on the lower timeframes.
The more time passes, the more the trend propagates through higher timeframes.
The default settings are meant to show all the available features. You may fine-tune it to your specific needs.
How to choose the timeframe for the chart : use the lowest of the choosen timeframes for indicators.
If the heatmap doesn't display correctly on your device, you may check the Heatmap Theme 🎨 setting.
It doesn't repaint.
"Repaint" version available though - good to check the past history, but very bad for real-time analysis.
▪ Indicators used for trend detection
1. MACD Cross
2. Stochastic Cross
3. Stochastic Cross and Overbought or Oversold
4. Moving Average
5. Parabolic SAR
6. Heikin Ashi
▪ Find the best Heatmap settings with the Strategy Tester version.
The signals generated by the Heatmap are considered to be valid at the bar open .
The Strategy Tester, however, uses the bar close in its calculations.
Therefore, the results may seem to be worse than they can be.
The Profitability, Profit Factor and other stats should be taken into consideration relatively to other configurations of the same Heatmap.
▪ Using a score system to consider a change in trend valid.
Example: consider the signal valid if 65% or more of all indicators (max 6) among all timeframes (max 19) hint at a change in trend.
The % percent value can be inserted in settings.
When using the default settings or when all timeframes and indicators are activated,
the ratio of 100% downtrend or 100% uptrend may be less occuring. Adjust accordingly.
The signals across timeframes and indicators are aggregated to show simple entry and exit signals.
▪ Combined Alerts, to be set to fire once per bar open :
0 - 📈 Long! - Heatmap - Multi-TFI
0 - 📈 Short! - Heatmap - Multi-TFI
0 - 📈 Long Exit! - Heatmap - Multi-TFI
0 - 📈 Short Exit! - Heatmap - Multi-TFI
1 *** BUY or SELL (single alert) ***
1 *** Entries or Exits (single alert) ***
▪ Note : The initial load may be slow. If something doesn't seem to work, you can try the following:
- wait more time for it to load
- hide & show or remove & add back to chart
- don't add the indicator to chart multiple times in a short amount of time, as you may be rate limited

Cyatophilum Strategy BuilderAn indicator to create strategies, backtest and setup alerts.
The user can choose one or multiple TA entry conditions, if more than one the conditions are combined with a logical AND.
The entries will open up a trade, which is then handled by a risk management system including Trailing Stop, Take Profit and up to 100 Safety Orders.
This indicator can be used to backtest 3commas DCA bots who are using TA presets, RSI or ULT.
Its main goal is to create strategies by combining indicators.
Let's dive into the details of what's included:
Entry Condition: MACD
Triggers an entry when macd crosses with the signal line.
Configure the fast, slow length, signal smoothing and timeframe to trigger the condition.
Entry Condition: RSI
Triggers an entry when the RSI is higher or lower than the long/short threshold.
Configure the length, timeframe, long and short threshold to trigger the condition.
Entry Condition: ULT (Ultimate Oscillator)
Triggers an entry when the ULT is higher or lower than the long/short threshold.
Configure the 3 lengths, timeframe, long and short threshold to trigger the condition.
Entry Condition: Bollinger Bands
Triggers an entry when the price is above the upper band for long and below the lower band for short.
Configure the length, standard deviation and timeframe to trigger the condition.
Entry Condition: MFI (Money Flow Index)
Similar to RSI, it triggers an entry when the MFI is higher or lower than the long/short threshold.
Configure the length, timeframe, long and short threshold to trigger the condition.
Entry Condition: CCI (Commodity Channel Index)
Another oscillator that triggers an entry when its value is higher or lower than the long/short threshold.
Configure the length, timeframe, long and short threshold to trigger the condition.
Trend Filters
Use one or two trendlines to filter your trades: go only long/short when the trendline is bullish/bearish.
Choose between the several trendlines: ema, sma, wma, hull ma, kama, alma, rma, swma, vwma, Tilson T3, and the unique Adaptive T3 and Adaptive Hull MA.
If this is not enough, you can use the external trendline feature to plug in any other indicator for your trendline.
The second trendline can be MTF and come from another symbol if needed.
Combining Indicators
Most of the time we will not be using a single indicator at a time, but instead, combine them in order to get stronger entries.
The entry conditions are combined using a AND logical gate, meaning all conditions must be true for the entry to trigger.
Here is an example using a combination of 2 indicators: Bollinger Bands and RSI.
We can see less entries are being triggered on the bottom chart than on the top chart because the bottom chart is combining the 2 indicators while the top chart is only using Bollinger Bands.
You can combine up to all 6 indicators if you want, but keep in mind that combining too many may lead to triggering no entry at all.
Risk Management and Trade system
The indicator will not trigger more than one long or short entry in a row.
To start a new trade, the indicator will wait for either take profit, stop loss or an opposite entry if no SL and TP is set.
Stop Loss and Take Profit
Configure your stop loss and take profit for long and short trades.
You can also make a trailing stoploss and a trailing take profit.
Safety Orders
Just like 3commas bots, you can create a strategy with up to 100 safety orders.
Configure their placement and order size using the price deviation, step scale, take profit type (from base order or total volume), and volume scale settings.
Note: only the 20 first safety order steps or so will be plotted due to graphic limiations. The steps after that still trigger alerts and backtest results.
Creating Alerts
The indicator is using the newest alert system:
1. Write your alert messages in the indicator settings (alert section at the bottom)
2. Click "Create Alert" as usual, but choose "alert() function calls only"
Data Window
Since the indicator is applied on top of the price chart, the oscillator indicators cannot be plotted. You can always add them on another pane but if you want to just see their values, you can use the Data Window to see the value of each oscillator on each bar.
Backtest settings
Used to get the results below:
Initial Capital: 100 000$
Base Order Size: 0.1 contract (BTC)
Safety Order Size: 0.1 contract (BTC)
Commission: 0.1%
Slippage: 100 ticks
pyramiding: 6
The indicator settings are plotted in the main chart panel.
Ultimate Strategy TemplateHello Traders
As most of you know, I'm a member of the PineCoders community and I sometimes take freelance pine coding jobs for TradingView users.
Off the top of my head, users often want to:
- convert an indicator into a strategy, so as to get the backtesting statistics from TradingView
- add alerts to their indicator/strategy
- develop a generic strategy template which can be plugged into (almost) any indicator
My gift for the community today is my Ultimate Strategy Template
Step 1: Create your connector
Adapt your indicator with only 2 lines of code and then connect it to this strategy template.
For doing so:
1) Find in your indicator where are the conditions printing the long/buy and short/sell signals.
2) Create an additional plot as below
I'm giving an example with a Two moving averages cross.
Please replicate the same methodology for your indicator wether it's a MACD, ZigZag, Pivots, higher-highs, lower-lows or whatever indicator with clear buy and sell conditions
//@version=4
study(title='Moving Average Cross', shorttitle='Moving Average Cross', overlay=true, precision=6, max_labels_count=500, max_lines_count=500)
type_ma1 = input(title="MA1 type", defval="SMA", options= )
length_ma1 = input(10, title = " MA1 length", type=input.integer)
type_ma2 = input(title="MA2 type", defval="SMA", options= )
length_ma2 = input(100, title = " MA2 length", type=input.integer)
// MA
f_ma(smoothing, src, length) =>
iff(smoothing == "RMA", rma(src, length),
iff(smoothing == "SMA", sma(src, length),
iff(smoothing == "EMA", ema(src, length), src)))
MA1 = f_ma(type_ma1, close, length_ma1)
MA2 = f_ma(type_ma2, close, length_ma2)
// buy and sell conditions
buy = crossover(MA1, MA2)
sell = crossunder(MA1, MA2)
plot(MA1, color=color_ma1, title="Plot MA1", linewidth=3)
plot(MA2, color=color_ma2, title="Plot MA2", linewidth=3)
plotshape(buy, title='LONG SIGNAL', style=shape.circle, location=location.belowbar, color=color_ma1, size=size.normal)
plotshape(sell, title='SHORT SIGNAL', style=shape.circle, location=location.abovebar, color=color_ma2, size=size.normal)
/////////////////////////// SIGNAL FOR STRATEGY /////////////////////////
Signal = buy ? 1 : sell ? -1 : 0
plot(Signal, title="🔌Connector🔌", transp=100)
Basically, I identified my buy, sell conditions in the code and added this at the bottom of my indicator code
Signal = buy ? 1 : sell ? -1 : 0
plot(Signal, title="🔌Connector🔌", transp=100)
Important Notes
🔥 The Strategy Template expects the value to be exactly 1 for the bullish signal , and -1 for the bearish signal
Now you can connect your indicator to the Strategy Template using the method below or that one
Step 2: Connect the connector
1) Add your updated indicator to a TradingView chart
2) Add the Strategy Template as well to the SAME chart
3) Open the Strategy Template settings and in the Data Source field select your 🔌Connector🔌 (which comes from your indicator)
From then, you should start seeing the signals and plenty of other stuff on your chart
🔥 Note that whenever you'll update your indicator values, the strategy statistics and visual on your chart will update in real-time
Settings
- Color Candles : Color the candles based on the trade state (bullish, bearish, neutral)
- Close positions at market at the end of each session : useful for everything but cryptocurrencies
- Session time ranges : Take the signals from a starting time to an ending time
- Close Direction : Choose to close only the longs, shorts, or both
- Date Filter : Take the signals from a starting date to an ending date
- Set the maximum losing streak length with an input
- Set the maximum winning streak length with an input
- Set the maximum consecutive days with a loss
- Set the maximum drawdown (in % of strategy equity)
- Set the maximum intraday loss in percentage
- Limit the number of trades per day
- Limit the number of trades per week
- Stop-loss: None or Percentage or Trailing Stop Percentage or ATR
- Take-Profit: None or Percentage or ATR
- Risk-Reward based on ATR multiple for the Stop-Loss and Take-Profit
This script is open-source so feel free to use it, and optimize it as you want
Alerts
Maybe you didn't know it but alerts are available on strategy scripts.
I added them in this template - that's cool because:
- if you don't know how to code, now you can connect your indicator and get alerts
- you have now a cool template showing you how to create alerts for strategy scripts
Source: www.tradingview.com
I hope you'll like it, use it, optimize it and most importantly....make some optimizations to your indicators thanks to this Strategy template
Special Thanks
Special thanks to @JosKodify as I borrowed a few risk management snippets from his website: kodify.net
Additional features
I thought of plenty of extra filters that I'll add later on this week on this strategy template

Pyramiding Entries On Early Trends (by Coinrule)Pyramiding the entries in a trading strategy may be risky but at the same time very profitable with a proper risk management approach. This strategy seeks to spot early signs of uptrends and increase the position's size while the right conditions persist.
Each trade comes with its stop-loss and take-profit to enforce a proportional risk/reward profile.
The strategy uses a mix of Moving Average based setups to define the buy-signal.
The Moving Average (200) is above the Moving Average (100), which prevents from buying when the uptrend is already in its late stages
The Moving Average (9) is above the Moving Average (100), indicating that the coin is not in a downtrend.
The price crossing above the Moving Average (9) confirms the potential upside used to fire the buy order.
Each entry comes with a stop-loss and a take-profit in a ratio of 1-to-1. After over 400 backtests, we opted for a 3% TP and 3% SL, which provides the best results.
The strategy is optimized on a 1-hour time frame.
The Advantages of this strategy are:
It offers the possibility of adjusting the size of the position proportionally to the confidence in the possibilities that an uptrend will eventually form.
Low drawdowns. On average, the percentage of trades in profit is above 60%, and the stop-loss equal to the take-profit reduces the overall risk.
This strategy returned good returns both with trading pairs with Fiat/stable coins and with BTC. Considering the mixed trends that cryptocurrencies experienced during 2020 vs BTC, this strengthens the strategy's reliability.
The strategy assumes each order to trade 20% of the available capital and pyramids the entries up to 7 times.
A trading fee of 0.1% is taken into account. The fee is aligned to the base fee applied on Binance, which is the largest cryptocurrency exchange.
Gregoire Channel StrategyAdd the strategy to the chart, and start by selecting one of four systems:
1) Trend Following
2) Trend Following - Long Only
3) Volatility Breakout
4) Volatility Breakout - Long Only
Each system is better suited to a particular type of market. Find out through back-testing which system and timeframe is best for each market.
Trend Following is good for securities that strongly trend up and down. Examples: Bitcoin, "growth" stocks.
Trend Following (Long Only) is great for stock indexes that are on a 100 year uptrend, or US-based crypto exchanges which don't allow margin trading but you want to catch the big trends (BTC, ETH).
Volatility Breakout is a defensive system designed to capture the meat of the move and protect the gains. This system is better for altcoins and mature markets like forex pairs.
Volatility Breakout (Long Only) is for US-based crypto exchanges that don't allow margin trading. Good for altcoins.
DEFAULT SETTINGS:
START DATE: 1/1/2020
FEE: 0.1% (This is the Binance.us fee per trade, tailor it to your exchange)
TAKE PROFIT GCW: 0
STOP LOSS GCW: 0
LENGTH: 20
SOURCE: HL2
The system doesn't need stop losses or take profit levels as they are built into the system, but you can add them if you want. 1 GCW = half the channel, so the distance from the top of the channel to the middle line. 2 GCW = the height of the channel.
MISC
-Make sure you calculate the fees! They make a huge difference in profitability. For example, test how Coinbase.com's fees of 0.5% compared to Binance.us's fees of 0.1%. It's huge!
-Try different sets of lengths and timeframes. For example, I like using the daily timeframe and low length for stocks and intraday timeframe with long lengths for crypto. See what tests best!

DMT 369 DRAGRONFLY STRATSuccessful traders trade with a fixed plan and without emotion, but this a lot harder than many new traders think. Many never master this skill and suffer continual drawdowns on their accounts as they overtrade high leverage positions in volatile markets.
ĐΜŦ Autobot resolves this issue by taking the human element out of the equation, allowing full automation of trades using TradingView alerts to trigger your favourite trading bot, such as Alertatron or 3Commas.
Being a Trend Reversal Indicator based on Volatility & Average True Range, ĐΜŦ Autobot is designed to identify spots in the market that offer suitable scalp and swing trade opportunities.
Due to popular demand we have expanded our ĐΜŦ Autobot product line to include the new ĐΜŦ Autobot Dragonfly 3-6-9 Edition which combines DMT with 3-6-9 Vortex mathematics, our Titan indicator and a multi-ladder scalping strategy to ensure you maintain a preferable average entry when price action moves against your position.
Indicator View
It its default state the DMT Autobot Dragonfly indicator displays key signal information, such as:
• Support & resistance range lines
• Titan Body Small & Large Time Frame lines
• Long & Short entry positions
• Long & Short position ladders
• Profit targets
Dragonfly displays a range between resistance (upper line) and support (lower line) on the chart.
Once the price is granted support in the range the lower line will turn green. As price action develops it will make repeated attempts to test support. If support holds price will attempt to test the resistance line (red).
When resistance is broken and the price is above the upper line, the line will turn blue confirming the bullish momentum and provide a potential buy opportunity.
Price action will make attempts to test the upper line as support and will keep rising while support is granted.
Once support is lost the upper line will become red once more. As price action develops it will make repeated attempts to test resistance. If resistance holds, the price will attempt to test the support line (green).
When support is broken and the price goes below the lower line, the line will turn red confirming the bearish momentum and provide a potential selling opportunity.
Price action will make attempts to test the lower line as resistance and will keep dropping while resistance is granted.
Titan Body
The Titan Body Small & Large time frame options in the indicator add additional trendlines to the chart to provide further clarity and confirmation to the Support & Resistance range indication.
Once price is granted support by the Small Time Frame trend line the line will turn green. As price action develops it will make repeated attempts to test the Small Time Frame support. Once the price is below the Small Time Frame trend line, the line will turn red and can act as resistance in a trend reversal.
When price is granted support by the Large Time Frame trend line the line will turn cyan. As price action develops it will make repeated attempts to test the Large Time Frame support. Once the price is below the Large Time Frame trend line, the line will turn orange and can act as resistance in a trend reversal.
The Titan Body enabled and customized in the indicator’s style settings,
Alert indicators
DMT Autobot Dragonfly Edition generates signals that can be used to scalp trade a volatile asset.
Signals are enabled and customized in the indicator’s input settings Additional options can be found in the options, but it is recommended that these are left at the default, as shown below. The indicator generates many
Entry and Profit levels can be disabled or customized in the indicator’s style settings,
Tradingview Alerts
Using Tradingview alerts, DMT Autobot Dragonfly signals can be used to trigger a trading bot.
To trigger a long or short position, set the Tradingview Alert Condition to DMT 369 Dragonfly and select the long or short option.
It is recommended that long or short positions are configured to trigger Once Per Bar Close
Ladders can also be triggered using alerts. To trigger a ladder order, set the Tradingview Alert Condition to DMT 369 Dragonfly and select the appropriate Long or Short ADD option that is to be triggered by the relevant values defined in the indicator’s configuration.
It is recommended that ladder orders are configured to trigger Once Per Bar,
To trigger a take profit order, set the Tradingview Alert Condition to DMT 369 Dragonfly and select the Long or Short TP option that is to be triggered by the relevant values defined in the indicator’s configuration.
Take profit orders can be configured as Once Per Bar Close or Once Per Minute.
If you wish to trigger a take profit signal immediately when the indicator’s defined take profit value is achieved, then use the Once Per Bar option.
Selecting Once Per Bar Close to generate a take profit signal is a gamble as the candle may close far away from the defined profit target – positive or negative.
While stops can be used, they are not applicable to the recommended ladder strategy.
Ladder Strategy
The DMT Autobot Dragonfly indicator always turns an underwater position into a win by utilizing a ladder strategy.
By using the recommended defaults, the indicator will trigger ladder orders at 3%, 6% & 9% using increasing order sizes,
Order sizes increase exponentially to ensure a good average price is maintained. If you are not using DMT Autobot Dragonfly signals to trigger ladder or take profit orders, please ensure your trading bot is configured to recalculate the new ladder entry and profit target based on the new average position entry price as each ladder is filled.
If you are using DMT Autobot Dragonfly on a leveraged asset, please ensure the leverage position is configured suitably so that your position is not liquidated if the price rapidly moves against you.

Ultimate multi-indicator strategy and script- AlphaNHBI created this to be the best multi-indicator strategy, with a matching alert script. This script is ideal for beginners, as well experienced traders who need direct indicators without any of the flashy unnecessary features. This script gets right to the point.
This strategy code was designed for the best mixture of most common indicators, allowing the user to mix and match any indicator he/she chooses. You are able to use sell signals that are either take profits and sell signals, or you are able to use the sell signals of one, or more indicators, OR you can use both (sell signals of indicators AND take profits and stop losses.)
Buying indicators allow you to use the MACD , stochastics, RSI , moving average, fibonacci, t3, Bollinger bands , fractals, and more.
This script works on anything with a chart. It can be applied to crypto, stocks, bonds, forex, etc.
If you would like the script that matches this strategy so that you can do REAL TRADING with LIVE TIME ALERTS, please DM me.
If anyone has suggestions on how to make this better, let me know! This is a growing script that I am building to be universally solid through different markets and through different market conditions!
The details of this backtest are the following:
Initial Capital: 5000
Order Size: 25%
Pyramiding: 10 (although, I don't usually use pyramiding myself, and you don't need to and you will still be largely profitable, by pyramiding definitely helps with smoothing results.)

Cyatophilum Scalper [BACKTEST]This indicator comes with a backtest and alert version. This is the backtest version. Its purpose is to create low timeframe and scalping strategies, by choosing from a list of built-in entry points which are described in detail below, and by configuring a risk management system to your liking.
Before diving into the entry points, I will explain the strategy and risk management settings.
These 3 settings allow to choose your strategy direction, and main behavior.
- Go Long ↗: activate or deactivate long entry points.
- Go Short ↘: activate or deactivate short entry points.
- Reversal strategy ↗↘↗↘: Activate this option will allow trades to reverse position from an opposite entry point. Keep it deactivated and trades will either wait a TakeProfit(TP) or StopLoss(SL) to be closed. When neither SL nor TP or set, this option is automatically activated.
StopLoss settings:
Both Long and Short SL can be activated and configured.
The base % price is the starting point of the stoploss, in a percentage of current price.
Trailing stop, when activated, works with 2 settings:
- % Price to Trigger: a percentage of current price the price should move in a bar to trigger a trailing movement.
- % Price Movement: the stoploss variation in a percentage of current price that moves on each bar.
TakeProfit settings:
Both Long and Short TP can be activated and configured.
The base % price is the value of the TP, in a percentage of current price.
Trailing Profit Deviation %: Percent deviation for the trailing take profit.
DCA:
DCA stands for Dollar Cost Average. The idea is to open additional orders from the base order so as to improve risk management.
These additional orders are also called Safety Orders. The indicator can handle up to 9 safety orders.
The strategy will exit either from a take profit based on percentage from base order or from a total volume percentage (Configurable in the parameters).
The steps spacing (space between each step) and safety orders volume (order size) can both scale by adding a scale multiplier.
By choosing from the base strategy dropdown menu, the indicator will generate entry points.
1. BUY SELL:
-> Low timeframes spot trading, with simple buy and sell orders.
How it works:
The indicator used is a combination of QQE (Atr based trend following indicator) and RMA 100 trendline.
I think the QQE does a great job in low timeframes because it is not impacted by the noise.
The RMA which is the moving average used in the RSI, will help giving confirmation to the entry points.
How to use:
It is meant to be used as a reversal strategy, but you can add a TP or SL if you want.
When comparing to Buy & Hold, make sure to deactivate the "Short results in the backtest" setting.
2. TREND SCALPING
-> A strategy for low timeframes trading.
How it works:
The strategy creates high volatility entries filtered by a duo convergence of adaptive trendlines (Adaptive HULL MA using the chart's resolution, Adaptive Tilson T3 using 1H resolution) and a higher timeframe (1H) RSI filter (long threshold: 70, short threshold: 40, RSI length: 10).
How to use:
Must be used on charts with a resolution smaller than 1H. Recommended: from 1m to 30m.
Must NOT be used as reversal strategy. Use it with a take profit and stop loss, and DCA if you can.
Sample risk management settings:
3. Support/Resistance BREAKOUTS
-> Trade low timeframes pivot points breakouts.
How it works:
The indicator calculates the 100 previous bars swing high and low. Any break above high or below low will trigger an entry point.
The entry is however filtered by an Adaptive Tilson T3 Trendline, an ADX 30 minimum threshold and a minimum average volume threshold.
How to use:
I recommend to click "Reversal" Strategy and set a Takeprofit target.
Find the best timeframe between 1m and 30m using the backtest version.
Example here with BTCUSDTPERP on 15m:
4. AGGRESSIVE SCALPING
-> Lots of trades in low timeframes.
How it works:
Created using Cyato AI, Higher/Lower Highs and Lows and 2 HULLMA crosses as entries, and 2 Adaptive Tilson T3 as trendfilter, a 25 ADX threshold filter and a volume filter.
How to use:
Recommended Risk Management settings: Takeprofit, Stoploss and DCA (Safety orders).
Find which timeframe work the best from 30 min and below. Should not be used above 30 min since this is the resolution for the MTF Tilson.
How to create Strategy Alerts:
Write your alert messages for EXIT, LONG and SHORT orders in the settings (Backtest section).
Then click add alert, and in the alert message, write the following:
{{strategy.order.alert_message}}

Short In Downtrend Below MA100 (Coinrule)This is a simple strategy to take advantage of downtrends. It's useful to run such a strategy as a hedge in times of market uncertainty.
The Sell Condition - Entry
The sell signal triggers when:
the coin has MA (100) greater than the price in a timeframe of 15 minutes, meaning that the coin is in a short-term downtrend.
the coin has an RSI greater than 30 in a timeframe of 15 minutes, indicating that it didn't reach oversold conditions yet, so there is still room for a further price drop.
On Coinrule, you can launch the strategy on real market conditions, setting up multiple sequential sell orders. The strategy would keep selling while the price stays below the MA(100). In that case, it's advisable to set low amounts for the sell orders. the position will grow gradually while the downtrend intensifies. Set a minimum time interval between the sell orders will also help to have control over the overall position size.
The Buy Condition - Exit
The bot connects to each trade a stop loss and a take profit. The percentages are optimized for short term trades on mid-cap coins. You can adjust the percentages depending on the specific coin you are trading. A ratio of 1:1.5 between the stop loss and the take profit could work as the strategy trades in the same direction of the trend.
Stop loss at 3% from the entry price
Take profit at 2% from the entry price
A slightly larger stop loss allows tolerating more volatility to reduce the case of stops triggering when it shouldn't.
[astropark] DMI/ADX strategy [strategy]Dear Followers,
today I'm happy to share with you my DMI / ADX Strategy .
It provides directional trend information, so if a bullish or a bearish trend is going to start. Statistically it works better on lower timeframes (from 5 minutes to 1 hour).
It is both a Swing and Scalping Strategy indicator , based on a simple trend following theory , good for trading FOREX, Indexes, Stocks, Commodities and Cryptocurrencies.
To help in Taking Profits, the strategy integrates 2 special other than bull/bear signals:
Overbought and Oversold RSI Signals , which appear both as darker background (the darker the color, the more the price is in overbought/oversold) and green "ob"-"tp" / red "os"-"tp" labels (they optionally pop up only on a configurable stronger overbought/oversold condition) (you can enable/disable it optionally)
Peak Profit Tracker , which resets every time a new trade starts and keeps track of price fluctuation during the trade: the message is don't be too greedy and take profits or lock them with a stoploss in profit (you can enable/disable it optionally)
You can edit many options in order to
have more/less bull/bear signals
enable/disable showing bull/bear signals
enable/disable showing RSI TP signals (you can edit RSI length, overbought (OB) and oversold (OS) levels)
enable/disable showing peak profits on each trade
The user who wants to use this strategy, especially via an automated bot, must always set a stoploss (example 150$ from entry on bitcoin ) or use a proper risk management strategy .
This is not the "Holy Grail", so use it with caution. It's highly suggested to use a proper money management .
This script will let you backtest performance of the indicator based on bear/bull signals.
You can find the alarms version by searching for my DMI / ADX Strategy and choosing the "alarms" named.
Here there are some examples how this DMI / ADX strategy works on many markets:
LTC/USDT 15m
BTC/USD 15m
BNB/BTC 15m
ETH/USD 15m
GOLD (XAU/USD) 15m
GOLD (XAU/USD) 1h
FB 15m
AAPL 15m
TSLA 1h
BANKNIFTY Index 5m
NIFTY 50 Index 5m
This is a premium indicator , so send me a private message in order to get access to this script .
Engulfing strategy with DMI confirmationThe strategy contains Bearish and Bullish Engulfing trend reverse alerts with entry and closure notifications. Entries are enforced by Directional Movement Index (DMI) indicator levels combination. The strategy can be applied to spot, futures and marginal trading exchanges. It is suitable for both long and short positions and works accurately with BTC, USDT, ETH and BNB quote currencies. Best to use with 1H timeframe charts
Strategy elements can be configured at your own desire with user interface settings, no programming skills required:
1. Choose signals type: Long, Short or Both
2. Choose trend detection pattern rule:
SMA50 - provides a higher number of positions
SMA50 + SMA200 provides a higher accuracy
3. Change risk management settings to make the most accurate and efficient configuration. You can set up unique stop loss, take profit and trailing offset for different assets
4. Configure strategy periods
DMI and ADX lengths
ADX Smoothing
Key level
EMA and SMA lengths
5. Configure backtest dates
6. Show or hide RSI support and resistance bands
Engulfing strategy provides information for traders to enter the market in anticipation of a possible reversal in trend. Engulfing candles tend to signal a reversal of the current trend in the market. This specific pattern involves two candles with the latter candle "engulfing" the entire body of the candle before it. The engulfing candle can be bullish or bearish depending on where it forms in relation to the existing trend. The script calculates and compares values of the price action candles to define is there an engulfing and what type it is: bullish or bearish
If there is a bullish engulfing the indicator fills price action candle with yellow color
If there is a bearish engulfing the indicator fills price action candle with purple color
Advantages of the script:
1. The script detects presence of both types of engulfing: Bullish and Bearish
2. Weak engulfment signals and market noises are filtered by RSI bands and DMI confirmations. This allows to receive only strong and confirmed engulfment signals
3. This script has configurable risk management settings (order size, commission, take profit, stop loss and trailing). This provides you opportunity of direct broker connection and allows to conduct backtests before applying the strategy to real account. You also can set up strategy actions alerts
At the chart you can see the historical price action of ADAUSDT at Binance exchange from the January 1st 2019 till current date. The strategy is set up to receive only long signals because it is a spot market. Moments when the strategy triggered to enter a position are shown as L label while position entries are shown as "Long" messages. Moments when a certain position should be closed are shown as "Exitlong" messages
The strategy demonstrate high backtest results:
Mathematical expectation of risk management settings is positive = 1.34%
Percent profitable = 93.33%
Profit factor = 3.253
Quantity of entries = 75
Net profit = 15.22%
How to use?
Long signals:
1. Apply indicator to a trading pair your are interested in.
2. Click Settings button and select Alert Positions Type Long
3. Once bullish engulfing and confirmation conditions are met price action candle will be colored yellow and script strategy will enter a position.
4. Check Strategy Tester to set up optimal Risk management settings: stop loss, trailing profit activation point, trailing offset
5. Set up the strategy alert to be notified when a position should be opened or closed
Short signals:
1. Apply indicator to a trading pair your are interested in.
2. Click Settings button and select Alert Positions Type Short
3. Once bearish engulfing and confirmation conditions are met price action candle will be colored purple and script strategy will enter a position.
4. Check Strategy Tester to set up optimal Risk management settings: stop loss, trailing profit activation point, trailing offset
5. Set up the strategy alert to be notified when a position should be opened or closed

Automated - Fibs with Limit only ordersAutomated - Fibs with Limit only orders
This script was designed to demonstrate how you can use a single alert to move your limit orders around.
It is not meant to be traded live and has been built to work with Binance Futures Testnet.
You will notice a lot of plots with 5 different titles.
New = Place your limit buy at a fixed-price.
Move = Cancel the current limit buy and place it at the new fixed-price.
Filled = Cancel any limit closes and places them anew based on the new average and take profit.
Cancel = Cancels exisiting limit buys.
Cloes All = Limit close filled, no commands necessary.
The default quantity in the command is the minimum order size on Binance.
Settings
Live
- If enabled it will only place trades after the "Stat Timestamp + Start Delay" that you provide.
Start Timestamp
- Use something similar to epochconverter to get the current timestamp.
Start Delay
- Gives you 1 minute by default to start the script and create your alert before it begins looking for a new entry.
Leverage
- Default 1. Affects the "Take Profit and DCA When" Settings.
Take Profit %
- This is the percentage above the current average you'd like to place your position close at.
DCA When %

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.

[astropark] ALGO Trading V2.2 - ETH [strategy]Dear Followers,
today another awesome Swing and Scalping Trading Strategy indicator : the upgraded version of ALGO Trading V2 for Binance Ethereum PERP on 15m timeframe!
It is runnable on a bot , just write me in order to help you do it.
If you are a scalper or you are a swing trader, you will love suggested entries for fast and long-lasting profit.
Keep in mind that a proper trailing stop strategy and risk management and money management strategies are very important (DM me if you need any clarification on these points).
This is an upgrade version of ALGO Trading V2 for Ethereum.
You can find ALGO Trading V2 indicator here below:
If you are interested in Bitcoin Trading , you will like for sure ALGO Trading V1.2, which is a customized version for Bitcoin trading:
This strategy has the following options:
enable/disable signals on chart
enable/disable bars and background coloring based on trend
enable/disable a Filter Noise option, which reduces overtrading
enable/disable a Trailing Stop option
enable/disable/config a Take Profit option, with Re-Entry
enable/disable a secret Smart Close Option which may improve profit on your chart (again, check it on you chart if it helps or not)
This strategy only trigger 1 buy (where to start a long trade) or 1 sell (for short trade). If you enable Take Profit / Stop Loss option, consider that many TP can be triggered before trend reversal, so take partial profit on every TP an eventually buy/sell back lower/higher on RE-ENTRY signal to maximize your profit.
Strategy results are calculated on the time window from December 2019 to now, so on more than 7 months, using 1000$ as initial capital and working at 1x leverage (so no leverage at all! If you like to use leverage, be sure to use a safe option, like 3x or 5x at most in order to have liquidation price very far).
This is not the "Holy Grail", so use proper money and risk management strategies.
In order to get notified when a signal is triggered, you need to use the "alarms" version of this indicator (just search for astropark's "ALGO Trading V2.2 - ETH" indicator and choose the one with "alarms" suffix).
This is a premium indicator , so send me a private message in order to get access to this script.
Grid Like StrategyIt is possible to use progressive position sizing in order to recover from past losses, a well-known position sizing system being the "martingale", which consists of doubling your position size after a loss, this allows you to recover any previous losses in a losing streak + winning an extra. This system has seen a lot of attention from the trading community (mostly from beginners), and many strategies have been designed around the martingale, one of them being "grid trading strategies".
While such strategies often shows promising results on paper, they are often subjects to many frictions during live trading that makes them totally unusable and dangerous to the trader. The motivations behind posting such a strategy isn't to glorify such systems, but rather to present the problems behind them, many users come to me with their ideas and glorious ways to make money, sometimes they present strategies using the martingale, and it is important to present the flaws of this methodology rather than blindly saying "you shouldn't use it".
Strategy Settings
Point determines the "grid" size and should be adjusted accordingly to the scale of the symbol you are applying the strategy to. Higher value would require larger price movements in order to trigger a trade, as such higher values will generate fewer trades.
The order size determines the number of contracts/shares to purchase.
The martingale multiplier determines the factor by which the position size is multiplied after a loss, using values higher to 2 will "squarify" your balance, while a value of 1 would use a constant position sizing.
Finally, the anti-martingale parameter determines whether the strategy uses a reverse martingale or not, if set to true then the position size is multiplied after any wins.
The Grid
Grid strategies are commons and do not present huge problems until we use certain position sizing methods such as the martingale. A martingale is extremely sensitive to any kind of friction (frictional costs, slippage...etc), the grid strategy aims to provide a stable and simple environment where a martingale might possibly behave well.
The goal of a simple grid strategy is to go long once the price crossover a certain level, a take profit is set at the level above the current one and stop loss is placed at the level below the current one, in a winning scenario the price reach the take profit, the position is closed and a new one is opened with the same setup. In a losing scenario, the price reaches the stop loss level, the position is closed and a short one is opened, the take profit is set at the level below the current one, and a stop loss is set at the level above the current one. Note that all levels are equally spaced.
It follows from this strategy that wins and losses should be constant over time, as such our balance would evolve in a linear fashion. This is a great setup for a martingale, as we are theoretically assured to recover all the looses in a losing streak.
Martingale - Exponential Decays - Risk/Reward
By using a martingale we double our position size (exposure) each time we lose a trade, if we look at our balance when using a martingale we see significant drawdowns, with our balance peaking down significantly. The martingale sequence is subject to exponential growth, as such using a martingale makes our balance exposed to exponential decays, that's really bad, we could basically lose all the initially invested capital in a short amount of time, it follows from this that the theoretical success of a martingale is determined by what is the maximum losing streak you can endure
Now consider how a martingale affects our risk-reward ratio, assuming unity position sizing our martingale sequence can be described by 2^(x-1) , using this formula we would get the amount of shares/contracts we need to purchase at the x trade of a losing streak, we would need to purchase 256 contracts in order to recover from a losing streak of size 9, this is enormous when you take into account that your wins are way smaller, the risk-reward ratio is totally unfair.
Of course, some users might think that a losing streak of size 9 is pretty unlikely, if the probability of winning and losing are both equal to 0.5, then the probability of 9 consecutive losses is equal to 0.5^9 , there are approximately 0.2% of chance of having such large losing streak, note however that under a ranging market such case scenario could happen, but we will see later that the length of a losing streak is not the only problem.
Other Problems
Having a capital large enough to tank 9any number of consecutive losses is not the only thing one should focus on, as we have to take into account market prices and trading dynamics, that's where the ugly part start.
Our first problem is frictional costs, one example being the spread, but this is a common problem for any strategy, however here a martingale is extra sensitive to it, if the strategy does not account for it then we will still double our positions costs but we might not recover all the losses of a losing streak, instead we would be recovering only a proportion of it, under such scenario you would be certain to lose over time.
Another problem are gaps, market price might open under a stop-loss without triggering it, and this is a big no-no.
Equity of the strategy on AMD, in a desired scenario the equity at the second arrow should have been at a higher position than the equity at the first arrow.
In order for the strategy to be more effective, we would need to trade a market that does not close, such as the cryptocurrency market. Finally, we might be affected by slippage, altho only extreme values might drastically affect our balance.
The Anti Martingale
The strategy lets you use an anti-martingale, which double the position size after a win instead of a loss, the goal here is not to recover from a losing strike but instead to profit from a potential winning streak.
Here we are exposing your balance to exponential gross but you might also lose a trade at the end a winning streak, you will generally want to reinitialize your position size after a few wins instead of waiting for the end of a streak.
Alternative
You can use other-kind of progressions for position sizing, such as a linear one, increasing your position size by a constant number each time you lose. More gentle progressions will recover a proportion of your losses in a losing streak.
You can also simulate the effect of a martingale without doubling your position size by doubling your target profit, if for example you have a 10$ profit-target/stop-loss and lose a trade, you can use a 20$ profit target to recover from the lost trade + gain a profit of 10$. While this approach does not introduce exponential decay in your balance, you are betting on the market reaching your take profits, considering the fact that you are doubling their size you are expecting market volatility to increase drastically over time, as such this approach would not be extremely effective for high losing streak.
Conclusion
You will see a lot of auto-trading strategies that are based on a grid approach, they might even use a martingale. While the backtests will look appealing, you should think twice before using such kind of strategy, remember that frictional costs will be a huge challenge for the strategy, and that it assumes that the trader has an important initial capital. We have also seen that the risk/reward ratio is theoretically the worst you can have on a strategy, having a low reward and a high risk. This does not mean that progressive position sizing is bad, but it should not be pushed to the extreme.
It is nice to note that the martingale is originally a betting system designed for casino games, which unlike trading are not subject to frictional costs, but even casino players don't use it, so why would you?
