Breakout Trend Follower StrategyThis strategy goes long when highs are broken and uses a trailing stop that follows swing lows. User can configure a back test date range and choose whether or not to only take trades above a selected moving average.
The desire for me to make this script was to try to capture those extreme breakouts that can occur after a consolidation/equilibrium pattern. This catches those using stop-buys as the entry. Out of all the scripts I have made thus far, this one is the one that has the best results. Time frames might vary due to commission structures, etc. I currently use this strategy on stocks on the 30-min time frame and crypto (with Coinbase's high fees) on the 2-hr time frame.

Altcoins DCA ScalperIntroduction
The Altcoins DCA Scalper is a Pine Strategy Script designed to automate Altcoins trading through 3Commas integration. It implements a Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) strategy that expands upon 3Commas' standard DCA capabilities, helping to manage risk while trading both long and short positions automatically.
This tool aims to assist both beginners exploring automated trading and experienced 3Commas users seeking dynamic DCA automation. The script is specifically designed for the 1-minute timeframe , where it has shown a good balance between performance and risk management. Complete setup typically takes less than 10 minutes, with a detailed guide making configuration straightforward for users of all experience levels.
------------------------------
🔶 What is DCA?
------------------------------
Dollar-cost averaging (DCA) refers to the practice of gradually increasing your position size at lower prices when trading long, or at higher prices when trading short, to achieve a better average entry price if the market moves against the initial entry . Instead of investing all capital at once, which could result in a significant drawdown if the price moves unfavorably, DCA spreads entries across different price levels to help manage potential drawdowns as they occur.
In this script, DCA is implemented through a system that:
🔹 Triggers safety orders only when/if needed (if take profit isn't reached quickly)
🔹 Dynamically adjusts order sizing based on market volatility
🔹 Automatically reduces take profit targets after each DCA order to increase the likelihood of a positive outcome
🔹 Can handle drawdowns depending on market volatility and settings
The images below illustrate two scenarios: one where an entry reaches the take profit directly, without activating DCA orders, and another where DCA is utilized, with the order closing positively after two DCA orders.
Case 1: Order closes in profit after entry
Case 2: Order closes in profit after 2 DCA orders (dynamically placed based on trend and volatility)
This DCA implementation aims to enhance standard 3Commas DCA by adding market-adaptive features while maintaining risk management principles.
------------------------------
🔶 Could this strategy script benefit you?

------------------------------
How to Use
------------------------------
Setting up the Altcoins DCA Scalper is quick and facilitated by the User Interface:
1️⃣ 3Commas/TradingView Setup
* Create two 3Commas accounts if using the FREE plan:
* One account for Long Bot
* One account for Short Bot
* This split allows full functionality while staying within 3Commas' free tier limits
* You do not need two separate accounts if you have a Paid 3Commas subscription
* While a free TradingView account works with the script, it limits you to one trading pair and a 4-day backtesting history. A paid TradingView subscription removes these limitations (such as the "Essential" plan).
2️⃣ Bot Configuration
* Create one Long and one Short DCA Bot in 3Commas
* Follow the setup guide available in the script itself for hassle-free configuration
* Copy Bot IDs and Email Token for script connection
* No complex settings needed - the script manages all DCA parameters by itself
3️⃣ Script Implementation
* Apply the script to your TradingView charts
* Use the built-in backtesting to analyze performance on different pairs
* Focus on USDT.P futures pairs with good volatility
4️⃣ Trading Activation
* Create TradingView alerts for each trading pair you want to activate
* Example: Set an alert for BINANCE: XRPUSDT.P following the in-script guide
* The script automatically manages all aspects:
* Entry and exit decisions
* DCA execution
* Risk management
* Position monitoring
Capital Requirements
* Important: Ensure sufficient capital to cover all activated pairs
* Consider volatility class when allocating capital to specific pairs
Once setup is complete, the script operates fully automatically while you maintain complete control of your funds through 3Commas and your exchange.
Note: While the setup is straightforward, always start with a small number of pairs and monitor performance before expanding. Trade responsibly and never risk more than you can afford to lose.

------------------------------
Frequently Asked Questions
------------------------------
Here are some common questions you may have, and our answers:
❓ Is this tool only for experts? I'm new to algo trading, can I use it?
No, the Altcoins DCA Scalper could be used by both beginners and experienced traders. The setup process is guided, and the algorithm handles all the calculations in the background.
❓ I'm not familiar with 3Commas. Is that a problem?
While the script is designed to work with 3Commas, a step-by-step guide is provided within the script to help you set up your 3Commas accounts and bots, if needed.
❓ Do I need to constantly monitor the script after it's set up?
No, after the initial setup and configuration, the script operates autonomously. It handles all aspects of trading including entries, exits, DCA management, and risk controls. However, we recommend:
* Checking performance metrics daily
* Reviewing position statistics weekly
* Adjusting pair selection monthly based on performance
* Monitoring overall market conditions that might require adjustments
❓ Can I use it with leverage?
Yes, the script is designed to work with leverage up to 5x on perpetual futures pairs (USDT.P). It includes specific features for leveraged trading:
* Dynamic safety order placement based on distance to liquidation
* Pre-liquidation exit system to minimize exchange fees
* Adjustable take-profit targets optimized for leveraged positions
* Emergency exit system for extreme market movements
* Optional risk controls specific to leverage:
* Automatic exit in the liquidation danger zone
* Position size scaling based on leverage level
* Safety order adjustments for different leverage settings
While leverage can amplify returns, it also increases risk. We recommend starting with lower leverage (2x), or no leverage at all, until familiar with the script's operation.
❓ Does this script guarantee profits?
No, no script or trading strategy can guarantee profits. The Altcoins DCA Scalper provides a framework for implementing an automated DCA strategy, but your success will depend on many different factors and conditions.
❓ Do I need to understand the complex algorithms used in the script?
No, it’s not necessary. The logic is handled by the script, and you do not need to understand every detail to use it effectively. However, a basic knowledge of DCA concepts will be beneficial.
❓ Can I use this script with spot or leveraged trades?
The script is optimized for USDT.P pairs (perpetual futures) with leverage up to 5x. This allows:
* Automatic long/short position management
* Increased capital utilization
* Full DCA functionality without holding the underlying assets
* Enhanced risk management features specific to futures
While spot trading is possible, it requires holding underlying assets for shorts and doesn't access the script's full capabilities.
❓What timeframe should I use?
This script is optimized for the 1-minute timeframe , which is the recommended setting for the best balance between performance, capital efficiency, and risk. While we recommend using the tool on the 1 minute TF, it would work on other timeframes too.
❓ What happens if my internet/computer goes down?
Since the script sends signals from Tradingview to 3Commas (which executes trades on your exchange), your positions and DCA management continue to function even if your TradingView chart is closed or your computer is off. The script only needs to be active to generate new signals.
❓ How are the DCA parameters determined?
The script dynamically adjusts DCA parameters based on:
* The pair's volatility class (compared to the overall altcoin market)
* Current market conditions and volatility
* Position direction (long/short)
* Leverage settings
* Number of safety orders already executed
This allows for adaptive/dynamic DCA compared to static or %-based parameters.
❓ What exchanges are supported?
The script works with any exchange supported by 3Commas for futures trading (approximately 15 different crypto Exchanges). However, it's optimized for Binance Futures (USDT.P pairs) due to its high liquidity and for consistency.
❓ What happens during extreme market conditions?
The script includes some (optional) protective measures that can be activated:
* Emergency exits during sharp and abnormal market moves
* Automatic adjustment of DCA parameters during high volatility
* Position closure on significant trend changes
* Special handling of aged positions
These features aim to protect capital during unusual market conditions.
❓How many pairs can I trade simultaneously?
This depends on your total capital. As a general indication, define the number of pairs to activate based on:
* Total available capital
* Desired position size per pair
* Risk tolerance
* Pairs' volatility class
------------------------------
Final Thoughts
------------------------------
We believe that your trading performance will greatly depend on your selection of appropriate trading pairs for this script (high volatility), and your commitment to regularly monitoring its performance and adjust the settings, rather than on the script alone.

QuantBuilder | FractalystWhat's the strategy's purpose and functionality?
QuantBuilder is designed for both traders and investors who want to utilize mathematical techniques to develop profitable strategies through backtesting on historical data.
The primary goal is to develop profitable quantitive strategies that not only outperform the underlying asset in terms of returns but also minimize drawdown.
For instance, consider Bitcoin (BTC), which has experienced significant volatility, averaging an estimated 200% annual return over the past decade, with maximum drawdowns exceeding -80%. By employing this strategy with diverse entry and exit techniques, users can potentially seek to enhance their Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) while managing risk to maintain a lower maximum drawdown.
While this strategy employs quantitative techniques, including mathematical methods such as probabilities and positive expected values, it demonstrates exceptional efficacy across all markets. It particularly excels in futures, indices, stocks, cryptocurrencies, and commodities, leveraging their inherent trending behaviors for optimized performance.
In both trending and consolidating market conditions, QuantBuilder employs a combination of multi-timeframe probabilities, expected values, directional biases, moving averages and diverse entry models to identify and capitalize on bullish market movements.
How does the strategy perform for both investors and traders?
The strategy has two main modes, tailored for different market participants: Traders and Investors.
1. Trading:
- Designed for traders looking to capitalize on bullish markets.
- Utilizes a percentage risk per trade to manage risk and optimize returns.
- Suitable for both swing and intraday trading with a focus on probabilities and risk per trade approach.
2. Investing:
- Geared towards investors who aim to capitalize on bullish trending markets without using leverage while mitigating the asset's maximum drawdown.
- Utilizes pre-define percentage of the equity to buy, hold, and manage the asset.
- Focuses on long-term growth and capital appreciation by fully/partially investing in the asset during bullish conditions.
How does the strategy identify market structure? What are the underlying calculations?
The strategy utilizes an efficient logic with for loops to pinpoint the first swing candle featuring a pivot of 2, establishing the point at which the break of structure begins.
What entry criteria are used in this script? What are the underlying calculations?
The script utilizes two entry models: BreakOut and fractal.
Underlying Calculations:
Breakout: The script assigns the most recent swing high to a variable. When the price closes above this level and all other conditions are met, the script executes a breakout entry (conservative approach).
Fractal: The script identifies a swing low with a period of 2. Once this condition is met, the script executes the trade (aggressive approach).
How does the script calculate probabilities? What are the underlying calculations?
The script calculates probabilities by monitoring price interactions with liquidity levels. Here’s how the underlying calculations work:
Tracking Price Hits: The script counts the number of times the price taps into each liquidity side after the EQM level is activated. This data is stored in an array for further analysis.
Sample Size Consideration: The total number of price interactions serves as the sample size for calculating probabilities.
Probability Calculation: For each liquidity side, the script calculates the probability by taking the average of the recorded hits. This allows for a dynamic assessment of the likelihood that a particular side will be hit next, based on historical performance.
Dynamic Adjustment: As new price data comes in, the probabilities are recalculated, providing real-time aduptive insights into market behavior.
Note: The calculations are performed independently for each directional range. A range is considered bearish if the previous breakout was through a sellside liquidity. Conversely, a range is considered bullish if the most recent breakout was through a buyside liquidity.
How does the script calculate expected values? What are the underlying calculations?
The script calculates expected values by leveraging the probabilities of winning and losing trades, along with their respective returns. The process involves the following steps:
This quantitative methodology provides a robust framework for assessing the expected performance of trading strategies based on historical data and backtesting results.
How is the contextual bias calculated? What are the underlying calculations?
The contextual bias in the QuantBuilder script is calculated through a structured approach that assesses market structure based on swing highs and lows. Here’s how it works:
Identification of Swing Points: The script identifies significant swing points using a defined pivot logic, focusing on the first swing high and swing low. This helps establish critical levels for determining market structure.
Break of Structure (BOS) Assessment:
Bullish BOS: The script recognizes a bullish break of structure when a candle closes above the first swing high, followed by at least one swing low.
Bearish BOS: Conversely, a bearish break of structure is identified when a candle closes below the first swing low, followed by at least one swing high.
Bias Assignment: Based on the identified break of structure, the script assigns directional biases:
A bullish bias is assigned if a bullish BOS is confirmed.
A bearish bias is assigned if a bearish BOS is confirmed.
Quantitative Evaluation: Each identified bias is quantitatively evaluated, allowing the script to assign numerical values representing the strength of each bias. This quantification aids in assessing the reliability of market sentiment across multiple timeframes.
What's the purpose of using moving averages in this strategy? What are the underlying calculations?
Using moving averages is a widely-used technique to trade with the trend.
The main purpose of using moving averages in this strategy is to filter out bearish price action and to only take trades when the price is trading ABOVE specified moving averages.
The script uses different types of moving averages with user-adjustable timeframes and periods/lengths, allowing traders to try out different variations to maximize strategy performance and minimize drawdowns.
By applying these calculations, the strategy effectively identifies bullish trends and avoids market conditions that are not conducive to profitable trades.
The MA filter allows traders to choose whether they want a specific moving average above or below another one as their entry condition.
What type of stop-loss identification method are used in this strategy? What are the underlying calculations?
- Initial Stop-loss:
1. ATR Based:
The Average True Range (ATR) is a method used in technical analysis to measure volatility. It is not used to indicate the direction of price but to measure volatility, especially volatility caused by price gaps or limit moves.
Calculation:
- To calculate the ATR, the True Range (TR) first needs to be identified. The TR takes into account the most current period high/low range as well as the previous period close.
The True Range is the largest of the following:
- Current Period High minus Current Period Low
- Absolute Value of Current Period High minus Previous Period Close
- Absolute Value of Current Period Low minus Previous Period Close
- The ATR is then calculated as the moving average of the TR over a specified period. (The default period is 14)
2. ADR Based:
The Average Day Range (ADR) is an indicator that measures the volatility of an asset by showing the average movement of the price between the high and the low over the last several days.
Calculation:
- To calculate the ADR for a particular day:
- Calculate the average of the high prices over a specified number of days.
- Calculate the average of the low prices over the same number of days.
- Find the difference between these average values.
- The default period for calculating the ADR is 14 days. A shorter period may introduce more noise, while a longer period may be slower to react to new market movements.
3. PL Based:
This method places the stop-loss at the low of the previous candle.
If the current entry is based on the hunt entry strategy, the stop-loss will be placed at the low of the candle that wicks through the lower FRMA band.
Example:
If the previous candle's low is 100, then the stop-loss will be set at 100.
This method ensures the stop-loss is placed just below the most recent significant low, providing a logical and immediate level for risk management.
- Trailing Stop-Loss:
One of the key elements of this strategy is its ability to detect structural liquidity and structural invalidation levels across multiple timeframes to trail the stop-loss once the trade is in running profits.
By utilizing this approach, the strategy allows enough room for price to run.
By using these methods, the strategy dynamically adjusts the initial stop-loss based on market volatility, helping to protect against adverse price movements while allowing for enough room for trades to develop.
Each market behaves differently across various timeframes, and it is essential to test different parameters and optimizations to find out which trailing stop-loss method gives you the desired results and performance.
What type of break-even and take profit identification methods are used in this strategy? What are the underlying calculations?
For Break-Even:
Percentage (%) Based:
Moves the initial stop-loss to the entry price when the price reaches a certain percentage above the entry.
Calculation:
Break-even level = Entry Price * (1 + Percentage / 100)
Example:
If the entry price is $100 and the break-even percentage is 5%, the break-even level is $100 * 1.05 = $105.
Risk-to-Reward (RR) Based:
Moves the initial stop-loss to the entry price when the price reaches a certain RR ratio.
Calculation:
Break-even level = Entry Price + (Initial Risk * RR Ratio)
For TP1 (Take Profit 1):
- You can choose to set a take profit level at which your position gets fully closed or 50% if the TP2 boolean is enabled.
- Similar to break-even, you can select either a percentage (%) or risk-to-reward (RR) based take profit level, allowing you to set your TP1 level as a percentage amount above the entry price or based on RR.
For TP2 (Take Profit 2):
- You can choose to set a take profit level at which your position gets fully closed.
- As with break-even and TP1, you can select either a percentage (%) or risk-to-reward (RR) based take profit level, allowing you to set your TP2 level as a percentage amount above the entry price or based on RR.
What's the day filter Filter, what does it do?
The day filter allows users to customize the session time and choose the specific days they want to include in the strategy session. This helps traders tailor their strategies to particular trading sessions or days of the week when they believe the market conditions are more favorable for their trading style.
Customize Session Time:
Users can define the start and end times for the trading session.
This allows the strategy to only consider trades within the specified time window, focusing on periods of higher market activity or preferred trading hours.
Select Days:
Users can select which days of the week to include in the strategy.
This feature is useful for excluding days with historically lower volatility or unfavorable trading conditions (e.g., Mondays or Fridays).
Benefits:
Focus on Optimal Trading Periods:
By customizing session times and days, traders can focus on periods when the market is more likely to present profitable opportunities.
Avoid Unfavorable Conditions:
Excluding specific days or times can help avoid trading during periods of low liquidity or high unpredictability, such as major news events or holidays.
What tables are available in this script?
- Summary: Provides a general overview, displaying key performance parameters such as Net Profit, Profit Factor, Max Drawdown, Average Trade, Closed Trades and more.
Total Commission: Displays the cumulative commissions incurred from all trades executed within the selected backtesting window. This value is derived by summing the commission fees for each trade on your chart.
Average Commission: Represents the average commission per trade, calculated by dividing the Total Commission by the total number of closed trades. This metric is crucial for assessing the impact of trading costs on overall profitability.
Avg Trade: The sum of money gained or lost by the average trade generated by a strategy. Calculated by dividing the Net Profit by the overall number of closed trades. An important value since it must be large enough to cover the commission and slippage costs of trading the strategy and still bring a profit.
MaxDD: Displays the largest drawdown of losses, i.e., the maximum possible loss that the strategy could have incurred among all of the trades it has made. This value is calculated separately for every bar that the strategy spends with an open position.
Profit Factor: The amount of money a trading strategy made for every unit of money it lost (in the selected currency). This value is calculated by dividing gross profits by gross losses.
Avg RR: This is calculated by dividing the average winning trade by the average losing trade. This field is not a very meaningful value by itself because it does not take into account the ratio of the number of winning vs losing trades, and strategies can have different approaches to profitability. A strategy may trade at every possibility in order to capture many small profits, yet have an average losing trade greater than the average winning trade. The higher this value is, the better, but it should be considered together with the percentage of winning trades and the net profit.
Winrate: The percentage of winning trades generated by a strategy. Calculated by dividing the number of winning trades by the total number of closed trades generated by a strategy. Percent profitable is not a very reliable measure by itself. A strategy could have many small winning trades, making the percent profitable high with a small average winning trade, or a few big winning trades accounting for a low percent profitable and a big average winning trade. Most mean-reversion successful strategies have a percent profitability of 40-80% but are profitable due to risk management control.
BE Trades: Number of break-even trades, excluding commission/slippage.
Losing Trades: The total number of losing trades generated by the strategy.
Winning Trades: The total number of winning trades generated by the strategy.
Total Trades: Total number of taken traders visible your charts.
Net Profit: The overall profit or loss (in the selected currency) achieved by the trading strategy in the test period. The value is the sum of all values from the Profit column (on the List of Trades tab), taking into account the sign.
- Monthly: Displays performance data on a month-by-month basis, allowing users to analyze performance trends over each month and year.
- Weekly: Displays performance data on a week-by-week basis, helping users to understand weekly performance variations.
- UI Table: A user-friendly table that allows users to view and save the selected strategy parameters from user inputs. This table enables easy access to key settings and configurations, providing a straightforward solution for saving strategy parameters by simply taking a screenshot with Alt + S or ⌥ + S.
User-input styles and customizations:
To facilitate studying historical data, all conditions and filters can be applied to your charts. By plotting background colors on your charts, you'll be able to identify what worked and what didn't in certain market conditions.
Please note that all background colors in the style are disabled by default to enhance visualization.

Alex trading stragedyOverview
This script, named "ALEX TRADING STRATEGY", is a technical trading strategy designed for new investing groups. It uses a combination of various technical indicators to identify potential buying and selling opportunities in the market. The script includes the Relative Strength Index (RSI), Simple Moving Averages (SMA), Exponential Moving Averages (EMA), and Higher High Lower Low (HHLL) strategies to create a complete trading solution.
The user can change the position from long to short in the Input Settings. The script uses bar colors to indicate the current trading position. The script also has exit strategies to help manage the open trades. The user can also set the period for the various indicators used in the strategy.
The script provides various technical indicators and entry/exit signals to make the trading decision easier for the user. It also includes pivot lines, resistance and support levels to help the user make a more informed decision.
This Pine script implements a multi-indicator trading strategy that combines several technical analysis techniques for making trading decisions. The script uses the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to determine overbought and oversold conditions in the market and plots the RSI values on the chart. The RSI values above 70 are considered overbought and plotted as red upward triangles, while the RSI values below 30 are considered oversold and plotted as green downward triangles.
The script also calculates Simple Moving Averages (SMAs) with the user-defined period and plots them along with the Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) of 20, 50, and 100 periods. Based on the crossover of the close price and the moving averages, the script enters long or short trades. The script sets the trade exit conditions as the low or high crossing the lower or upper band, respectively.
In addition to the moving average crossover, the script uses the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined period to determine long and short entries. The script plots the long and short conditions on the chart as green upward and red downward triangles, respectively. The script allows the user to switch between long and short trades by changing the input settings.
Finally, the script changes the bar colors based on the trade direction, with green bars indicating a long trade, red bars indicating a short trade, and blue bars indicating no trade. Overall, this Pine script provides a comprehensive trading strategy that combines several technical analysis techniques to make informed trading decisions.
HOW TO USE
Input Settings: In the Input Settings section, you can change the long to short position. You can also change the period value (default is 10) used to calculate the Simple Moving Average (SMA) for the Keltner channel.
Indicators: The script uses RSI (Relative Strength Index) with 14 periods as well as multiple EMAs (Exponential Moving Averages) with periods 20, 50, and 100 to help in making trading decisions.
Entry Signals: The script uses two main entry signals: (1) Keltner Channel and (2) HHLL (High-Low). When the closing price crosses above the upper band of the Keltner channel, the script generates a long signal, and when the closing price crosses below the lower band of the Keltner channel, the script generates a short signal. The HHLL strategy generates a long signal when the current high crosses above the highest high of the last "nPeriod" bars, and generates a short signal when the current low crosses below the lowest low of the last "nPeriod" bars.
Exit Signals: The script uses two exit signals: (1) Stop Loss based on Keltner channel and (2) Profit Target based on Keltner channel. The script exits the long position when the closing price crosses below the lower band of the Keltner channel, and the script exits the short position when the closing price crosses above the upper band of the Keltner channel.
To use this script, you will need to have access to a trading platform that supports PineScript, such as TradingView, and attach the script to a chart. The script will then automatically generate entry and exit signals based on the rules described above. It's important to note that this script is just a tool and not a guarantee of profit. As with any trading strategy, it's important to thoroughly test and understand the script before using it for live trading.
TASC 2025.05 Trading The Channel█ OVERVIEW
This script implements channel-based trading strategies based on the concepts explained by Perry J. Kaufman in the article "A Test Of Three Approaches: Trading The Channel" from the May 2025 edition of TASC's Traders' Tips . The script explores three distinct trading methods for equities and futures using information from a linear regression channel. Each rule set corresponds to different market behaviors, offering flexibility for trend-following, breakout, and mean-reversion trading styles.
█ CONCEPTS
Linear regression
Linear regression is a model that estimates the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables by fitting a straight line to the observed data. In the context of financial time series, traders often use linear regression to estimate trends in price movements over time.
The slope of the linear regression line indicates the strength and direction of the price trend. For example, a larger positive slope indicates a stronger upward trend, and a larger negative slope indicates the opposite. Traders can look for shifts in the direction of a linear regression slope to identify potential trend trading signals, and they can analyze the magnitude of the slope to support trading decisions.
One caveat to linear regression is that most financial time series data does not follow a straight line, meaning a regression line cannot perfectly describe the relationships between values. Prices typically fluctuate around a regression line to some degree. As such, analysts often project ranges above and below regression lines, creating channels to model the expected extent of the data's variability. This strategy constructs a channel based on the method used in Kaufman's article. It measures the maximum distances from points on the linear regression line to historical price values, then adds those distances and the current slope to the regression points.
Depending on the trading style, traders might look for prices to move outside an established channel for breakout signals, or they might look for price action to reach extremes within the channel for potential mean reversion opportunities.
█ STRATEGY CALCULATIONS
Primary trade rules
This strategy implements three distinct sets of rules for trend, breakout, and mean-reversion trades based on the methods Kaufman describes in his article:
Trade the trend (Rule 1) : Open new positions when the sign of the slope changes, indicating a potential trend reversal. Close short trades and enter a long trade when the slope changes from negative to positive, and do the opposite when the slope changes from positive to negative.
Trade channel breakouts (Rule 2) : Open new positions when prices cross outside the linear regression channel for the current sample. Close short trades and enter a long trade when the price moves above the channel, and do the opposite when the price moves below the channel.
Trade within the channel (Rule 3) : Open new positions based on price values within the channel's range. Close short trades and enter a long trade when the price is near the channel's low, within a specified percentage of the channel's range, and do the opposite when the price is near the channel's high. With this rule, users can also filter the trades based on the channel's slope. When the filter is active, long positions are allowed only when the slope is positive, and short positions are allowed only when it is negative.
Position sizing
Kaufman's strategy uses specific trade sizes for equities and futures markets:
For an equities symbol, the number of shares traded is $10,000 divided by the current price.
For a futures symbol, the number of contracts traded is based on a volatility-adjusted formula that divides $25,000 by the product of the 20-bar average true range and the instrument's point value.
By default, this script automatically uses these sizes for its trade simulation on equities and futures symbols and does not simulate trading on other symbols. However, users can control position sizes from the "Settings/Properties" tab and enable trade simulation on other symbol types by selecting the "Manual" option in the script's "Position sizing" input.
Stop-loss
This strategy includes the option to place an accompanying stop-loss order for each trade, which users can enable from the "SL %" input in the "Settings/Inputs" tab. When enabled, the strategy places a stop-loss order at a specified percentage distance from the closing price where the entry order occurs, allowing users to compare how the strategy performs with added loss protection.
█ USAGE
This strategy adapts its display logic for the three trading approaches based on the rule selected in the "Trade rule" input:
For all rules, the script plots the linear regression slope in a separate pane. The plot is color-coded to indicate whether the current slope is positive or negative.
When the selected rule is "Trade the trend", the script plots triangles in the separate pane to indicate when the slope's direction changes from positive to negative or vice versa. Additionally, it plots a color-coded SMA on the main chart pane, allowing visual comparison of the slope to directional changes in a moving average.
When the rule is "Trade channel breakouts" or "Trade within the channel", the script draws the current period's linear regression channel on the main chart pane, and it plots bands representing the history of the channel values from the specified start time onward.
When the rule is "Trade within the channel", the script plots overbought and oversold zones between the bands based on a user-specified percentage of the channel range to indicate the value ranges where new trades are allowed.
Users can customize the strategy's calculations with the following additional inputs in the "Settings/Inputs" tab:
Start date : Sets the date and time when the strategy begins simulating trades. The script marks the specified point on the chart with a gray vertical line. The plots for rules 2 and 3 display the bands and trading zones from this point onward.
Period : Specifies the number of bars in the linear regression channel calculation. The default is 40.
Linreg source : Specifies the source series from which to calculate the linear regression values. The default is "close".
Range source : Specifies whether the script uses the distances from the linear regression line to closing prices or high and low prices to determine the channel's upper and lower ranges for rules 2 and 3. The default is "close".
Zone % : The percentage of the channel's overall range to use for trading zones with rule 3. The default is 20, meaning the width of the upper and lower zones is 20% of the range.
SL% : If the checkbox is selected, the strategy adds a stop-loss to each trade at the specified percentage distance away from the closing price where the entry order occurs. The checkbox is deselected by default, and the default percentage value is 5.
Position sizing : Determines whether the strategy uses Kaufman's predefined trade sizes ("Auto") or allows user-defined sizes from the "Settings/Properties" tab ("Manual"). The default is "Auto".
Long trades only : If selected, the strategy does not allow short positions. It is deselected by default.
Trend filter : If selected, the strategy filters positions for rule 3 based on the linear regression slope, allowing long positions only when the slope is positive and short positions only when the slope is negative. It is deselected by default.
NOTE: Because of this strategy's trading rules, the simulated results for a specific symbol or channel configuration might have significantly fewer than 100 trades. For meaningful results, we recommend adjusting the start date and other parameters to achieve a reasonable number of closed trades for analysis.
Additionally, this strategy does not specify commission and slippage amounts by default, because these values can vary across market types. Therefore, we recommend setting realistic values for these properties in the "Cost simulation" section of the "Settings/Properties" tab.
Qullamaggie [Modified] | FractalystWhat's the purpose of this strategy?
The strategy aims to identify high-probability breakout setups in trending markets, inspired by Kristjan "Qullamaggie" Kullamägi’s approach.
It focuses on capturing explosive price moves after periods of consolidation, using technical criteria like moving averages, breakouts, trailing stop-loss and momentum confirmation.
Ideal for swing traders seeking to ride strong trends while managing risk.
----
How does the strategy work?
The strategy follows a systematic process to capture high-momentum breakouts:
Pre-Breakout Criteria:
Prior Price Surge: Identifies stocks that have rallied 30-100%+ in recent month(s), signaling strong underlying momentum (per Qullamaggie’s volatility expansion principles).
Consolidation Phase: Looks for a tightening price range (e.g., flag, pennant, or tight base), indicating a potential "coiling" before continuation.
Trend Confirmation: Uses moving averages (e.g., 20/50/200 EMA) to ensure the stock is trading above key averages on the daily chart, confirming an uptrend.
Price Break: Enters when price clears the consolidation high with conviction.
Risk Management:
Initial Stop Loss: Placed below the consolidation low or a recent swing point to limit downside.
Break-Even Adjustment: Moves stop loss to breakeven once the trade reaches 1.5x risk-to-reward (RR), securing a "free trade" while letting winners run.
Trailing Stop (Unique Edge):
Market Structure Trailing: Instead of trailing via moving averages, the stop is dynamically adjusted using structural invalidation level. This adapts to price action, allowing the trade to stay open during volatile retracements while locking in gains as new structure forms.
Why This Matters: Most strategies use rigid trailing stops (e.g., below the 10EMA), which often exit prematurely in choppy markets. By trailing based on structure, this strategy avoids "noise" and captures larger trends, directly boosting overall returns.
----
What markets or timeframes is this suited for?
This is a long-only strategy designed for trending markets, and it performs best in:
Markets: Stocks (especially high-growth, liquid equities), cryptocurrencies (major pairs with strong volatility), commodities (e.g., oil, gold), and futures (index/commodity futures).
Timeframes: Primarily daily charts for swing trades (1-30 day holds), though weekly charts can help confirm broader trends.
Key Advantage: The TradingView script allows instant backtesting with adjustable parameters
You can:
- Test historical performance across multiple markets to identify which assets align best with the strategy.
- Optimize settings (e.g., trailing stop sensitivity, moving averages etc.) to match a market’s volatility profile.
Build a diversified portfolio by filtering for markets that show consistent profitability in backtests.
For example, you might discover cryptos require tighter trailing stops due to volatility, while stocks thrive with wider structural stops. The script automates this analysis, letting you to trade confidently.
----
What indicators or tools does the strategy use?
The strategy combines customizable technical tools with strict anti-lookahead safeguards:
Core Indicators:
Moving Averages: Adjustable periods (e.g., 20/50/200 EMA or SMA) and timeframes (daily/weekly) to confirm trend alignment. Users can test combinations (e.g., 10EMA vs. 20EMA) to optimize for specific markets.
Breakout Parameters:
Consolidation Length: Adjustable window to define the "tightness" of the pre-breakout pattern.
Entry Models: Flexible entry logics (Breakouts and fractals)
Anti-Lookahead Design:
All calculations (e.g., moving averages, consolidation ranges, volume averages) use only closed/confirmed data available at the time of the signal.
----
How do I manage risk with this strategy?
The strategy prioritizes customizable risk controls to align with your trading style and account size:
User-Defined Risk Inputs:
Risk Per Trade: Set a % of Equity (e.g., 1-2%) to determine position size. The strategy auto-calculates shares/contracts to match your selected risk per trade.
Flexibility: Choose between fixed risk or equity-based scaling.
The script adjusts position sizing dynamically based on your selection.
Pyramiding Feature:
Customizable Entries: Adjust the number of pyramiding trades allowed (e.g., 1-3 additional positions) in the strategy settings. Each new entry is triggered only if the prior trade hits its 1.5x RR target and the trend remains intact.
Risk-Scaled Additions: New positions use profits from prior trades, compounding gains without increasing initial risk.
Risk-Free Trade Mechanic:
Once a trade reaches 1.5x RR, the stop loss is moved to breakeven, eliminating downside risk.
The strategy then opens a new position (if pyramiding is enabled) using a portion of the locked-in profit. This "snowballs" winners while keeping total capital exposure stable.
Impact on Net Profit & Drawdown:
Net Profit Boost: Pyramiding lets you ride multi-leg trends aggressively. For example, a 100% runner could generate 2-3x more profit vs. a single-entry approach.
Controlled Drawdowns: Since new positions are funded by profits (not initial capital), max drawdown stays anchored to your original risk per trade (e.g., 1-2% of account). Even if later entries fail, the breakeven stop on prior trades protects overall equity.
Why This Works: Most strategies either over-leverage (increasing drawdowns) or exit too early. By recycling profits into new positions only after securing risk-free capital, this approach mimics hedge fund "scaling in" tactics while staying retail-trader friendly.
----
How does the strategy identify market structure for its trailing stoploss?
The strategy identifies market structure by utilizing an efficient logic with for loops to pinpoint the first swing candle that features a pivot of 2. This marks the beginning of the break of structure, where the market's previous trend or pattern is considered invalidated or changed.
----
What are the underlying calculations?
The underlying calculations involve:
Identifying Swing Points: The strategy looks for swing highs (marked with blue Xs) and swing lows (marked with red Xs). A swing high is identified when a candle's high is higher than the highs of the candles before and after it. Conversely, a swing low is when a candle's low is lower than the lows of the candles before and after it.
Break of Structure (BOS):
Bullish BOS: This occurs when the price breaks above the swing high level of the previous structure, indicating a potential shift to a bullish trend.
Bearish BOS: This happens when the price breaks below the swing low level of the previous structure, signaling a potential shift to a bearish trend.
Structural Liquidity and Invalidation:
Structural Liquidity: After a break of structure, liquidity levels are updated to the first swing high in a bullish BOS or the first swing low in a bearish BOS.
Structural Invalidation: If the price moves back to the level of the first swing low before the bullish BOS or the first swing high before the bearish BOS, it invalidates the break of structure, suggesting a potential reversal or continuation of the previous trend.
This method provides users with a technical approach to filter market regimes, offering an advantage by minimizing the risk of overfitting to historical data, which is often a concern with traditional indicators like moving averages.
By focusing on identifying pivotal swing points and the subsequent breaks of structure, the strategy maintains a balance between sensitivity to market changes and robustness against historical data anomalies, ensuring a more adaptable and potentially more reliable market analysis tool.
----
What entry criteria are used in this script?
The script uses two entry models for trading decisions: BreakOut and Fractal.
Underlying Calculations:
Breakout: The script records the most recent swing high by storing it in a variable. When the price closes above this recorded level, and all other predefined conditions are satisfied, the script triggers a breakout entry. This approach is considered conservative because it waits for the price to confirm a breakout above the previous high before entering a trade. As shown in the image, as soon as the price closes above the new candle (first tick), the long entry gets taken. The stop-loss is initially set and then moved to break-even once the price moves in favor of the trade.
Fractal: This method involves identifying a swing low with a period of 2, which means it looks for a low point where the price is lower than the two candles before and after it. Once this pattern is detected, the script executes the trade. This is an aggressive approach since it doesn't wait for further price confirmation. In the image, this is represented by the 'Fractal 2' label where the script identifies and acts on the swing low pattern.
----
What type of stop-loss identification method are used in this strategy?
This strategy employs two types of stop-loss methods: Initial Stop-loss and Trailing Stop-Loss.
Underlying Calculations:
Initial Stop-loss:
ATR Based: The strategy uses the Average True Range (ATR) to set an initial stop-loss, which helps in accounting for market volatility without predicting price direction.
Calculation:
- First, the True Range (TR) is calculated for each period, which is the greatest of:
- Current Period High - Current Period Low
- Absolute Value of Current Period High - Previous Period Close
- Absolute Value of Current Period Low - Previous Period Close
- The ATR is then the moving average of these TR values over a specified period, typically 14 periods by default. This ATR value can be used to set the stop-loss at a distance from the entry price that reflects the current market volatility.
Swing Low Based:
For this method, the stop-loss is set based on the most recent swing low identified in the market structure analysis. This approach uses the lowest point of the recent price action as a reference for setting the stop-loss.
Trailing Stop-Loss:
The strategy uses structural liquidity and structural invalidation levels across multiple timeframes to adjust the stop-loss once the trade is profitable. This method involves:
Detecting Structural Liquidity: After a break of structure, the liquidity levels are updated to the first swing high in a bullish scenario or the first swing low in a bearish scenario. These levels serve as potential areas where the price might find support or resistance, allowing the stop-loss to trail the price movement.
Detecting Structural Invalidation: If the price returns to the level of the first swing low before a bullish break of structure or the first swing high before a bearish break of structure, it suggests the trend might be reversing or invalidating, prompting the adjustment of the stop-loss to lock in profits or minimize losses.
By using these methods, the strategy dynamically adjusts the initial stop-loss based on market volatility, helping to protect against adverse price movements while allowing for enough room for trades to develop. The ATR-based stop-loss adapts to the current market conditions by considering the volatility, ensuring that the stop-loss is not too tight during volatile periods, which could lead to premature exits, nor too loose during calm markets, which might result in larger losses. Similarly, the swing low based stop-loss provides a logical exit point if the market structure changes unfavorably.
Each market behaves differently across various timeframes, and it is essential to test different parameters and optimizations to find out which trailing stop-loss method gives you the desired results and performance. This involves backtesting the strategy with different settings for the ATR period, the distance from the swing low, and how the trailing stop-loss reacts to structural liquidity and invalidation levels.
Through this process, you can tailor the strategy to perform optimally in different market environments, ensuring that the stop-loss mechanism supports the trade's longevity while safeguarding against significant drawdowns.
----
What type of break-even method is used in this strategy? What are the underlying calculations?
Moves the initial stop-loss to the entry price when the price reaches a certain RR ratio.
Calculation:
Break-even level = Entry Price + (Initial Risk * RR Ratio)
----
What tables are available in this script?
- Summary: Provides a general overview, displaying key performance parameters such as Net Profit, Profit Factor, Max Drawdown, Average Trade, Closed Trades and more.
Total Commission: Displays the cumulative commissions incurred from all trades executed within the selected backtesting window. This value is derived by summing the commission fees for each trade on your chart.
Average Commission: Represents the average commission per trade, calculated by dividing the Total Commission by the total number of closed trades. This metric is crucial for assessing the impact of trading costs on overall profitability.
Avg Trade: The sum of money gained or lost by the average trade generated by a strategy. Calculated by dividing the Net Profit by the overall number of closed trades. An important value since it must be large enough to cover the commission and slippage costs of trading the strategy and still bring a profit.
MaxDD: Displays the largest drawdown of losses, i.e., the maximum possible loss that the strategy could have incurred among all of the trades it has made. This value is calculated separately for every bar that the strategy spends with an open position.
Profit Factor: The amount of money a trading strategy made for every unit of money it lost (in the selected currency). This value is calculated by dividing gross profits by gross losses.
Avg RR: This is calculated by dividing the average winning trade by the average losing trade. This field is not a very meaningful value by itself because it does not take into account the ratio of the number of winning vs losing trades, and strategies can have different approaches to profitability. A strategy may trade at every possibility in order to capture many small profits, yet have an average losing trade greater than the average winning trade. The higher this value is, the better, but it should be considered together with the percentage of winning trades and the net profit.
Winrate: The percentage of winning trades generated by a strategy. Calculated by dividing the number of winning trades by the total number of closed trades generated by a strategy. Percent profitable is not a very reliable measure by itself. A strategy could have many small winning trades, making the percent profitable high with a small average winning trade, or a few big winning trades accounting for a low percent profitable and a big average winning trade. Most mean-reversion successful strategies have a percent profitability of 40-80% but are profitable due to risk management control.
BE Trades: Number of break-even trades, excluding commission/slippage.
Losing Trades: The total number of losing trades generated by the strategy.
Winning Trades: The total number of winning trades generated by the strategy.
Total Trades: Total number of taken traders visible your charts.
Net Profit: The overall profit or loss (in the selected currency) achieved by the trading strategy in the test period. The value is the sum of all values from the Profit column (on the List of Trades tab), taking into account the sign.
- Monthly: Displays performance data on a month-by-month basis, allowing users to analyze performance trends over each month and year.
- Weekly: Displays performance data on a week-by-week basis, helping users to understand weekly performance variations.
- UI Table: A user-friendly table that allows users to view and save the selected strategy parameters from user inputs. This table enables easy access to key settings and configurations, providing a straightforward solution for saving strategy parameters by simply taking a screenshot with Alt + S or ⌥ + S.

Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) | FractalystWhat's the purpose of this strategy?
The purpose of dollar cost averaging (DCA) is to grow investments over time using a disciplined, methodical approach used by many top institutions like MicroStrategy and other institutions.
Here's how it functions:
Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA): This technique involves investing a set amount of money regularly, regardless of market conditions. It helps to mitigate the risk of investing a large sum at a peak price by spreading out your investment, thus potentially lowering your average cost per share over time.
Regular Contributions: By adding money to your investments on a pre-determined frequency and dollar amount defined by the user, you take advantage of compounding. The script will remind you to contribute based on your chosen schedule, which can be weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, quarterly, or yearly. This systematic approach ensures that your returns can earn their own returns, much like interest on savings but potentially at a higher rate.
Technical Analysis: The strategy employs a market trend ratio to gauge market sentiment. It calculates the ratio of bullish vs bearish breakouts across various timeframes, assigning this ratio a percentage-based score to determine the directional bias. Once this score exceeds a user-selected percentage, the strategy looks to take buy entries, signaling a favorable time for investment based on current market trends.
Fundamental Analysis: This aspect looks at the health of the economy and companies within it to determine bullish market conditions. Specifically, we consider:
Specifically, it considers:
Interest Rate: High interest rates can affect borrowing costs, potentially slowing down economic growth or making stocks less attractive compared to fixed income.
Inflation Rate: Inflation erodes purchasing power, but moderate inflation can be a sign of a healthy economy. We look for investments that might benefit from or withstand inflation.
GDP Rate: GDP growth indicates the overall health of the economy; we aim to invest in sectors poised to grow with the economy.
Unemployment Rate: Lower unemployment typically signals consumer confidence and spending power, which can boost certain sectors.
By integrating these elements, the strategy aims to:
Reduce Investment Volatility: By spreading out your investments, you're less impacted by short-term market swings.
Enhance Growth Potential: Using both technical and fundamental filters helps in choosing investments that are more likely to appreciate over time.
Manage Risk: The strategy aims to balance the risk of market timing by investing consistently and choosing assets wisely based on both economic data and market conditions.

What are Regular Contributions in this strategy?
Regular Contributions involve adding money to your investments on a pre-determined frequency and dollar amount defined by the user. The script will remind you to contribute based on your chosen schedule, which can be weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, quarterly, or yearly. This systematic approach ensures that your returns can earn their own returns, much like interest on savings but potentially at a higher rate.
----
How do regular contributions enhance compounding and reduce timing risk?
Enhances Compounding: Regular contributions leverage the power of compounding, where returns on investments can generate their own returns, potentially leading to exponential growth over time.
Reduces Timing Risk: By investing regularly, the strategy minimizes the risk associated with trying to time the market, spreading out the investment cost over time and potentially reducing the impact of volatility.
Automated Reminders: The script reminds users to make contributions based on their chosen schedule, ensuring consistency and discipline in investment practices, which is crucial for long-term success.
----
How does the strategy integrate technical and fundamental analysis for investors?
A: The strategy combines technical and fundamental analysis in the following manner:
Technical Analysis: It uses a market trend ratio to determine the directional bias by calculating the ratio of bullish vs bearish breakouts. Once this ratio exceeds a user-selected percentage threshold, the strategy signals to take buy entries, optimizing the timing within the given timeframe(s).
Fundamental Analysis: This aspect assesses the broader economic environment to identify sectors or assets that are likely to benefit from current economic conditions. By understanding these fundamentals, the strategy ensures investments are made in assets with strong growth potential.
This integration allows the strategy to select investments that are both technically favorable for entry and fundamentally sound, providing a comprehensive approach to investment decisions in the crypto, stock, and commodities markets.

How does the strategy identify market structure? What are the underlying calculations?
Q: How does the strategy identify market structure?
A: The strategy identifies market structure by utilizing an efficient logic with for loops to pinpoint the first swing candle that features a pivot of 2. This marks the beginning of the break of structure, where the market's previous trend or pattern is considered invalidated or changed.
What are the underlying calculations for identifying market structure?
A: The underlying calculations involve:
Identifying Swing Points: The strategy looks for swing highs (marked with blue Xs) and swing lows (marked with red Xs). A swing high is identified when a candle's high is higher than the highs of the candles before and after it. Conversely, a swing low is when a candle's low is lower than the lows of the candles before and after it.
Break of Structure (BOS):
Bullish BOS: This occurs when the price breaks above the swing high level of the previous structure, indicating a potential shift to a bullish trend.
Bearish BOS: This happens when the price breaks below the swing low level of the previous structure, signaling a potential shift to a bearish trend.
Structural Liquidity and Invalidation:
Structural Liquidity: After a break of structure, liquidity levels are updated to the first swing high in a bullish BOS or the first swing low in a bearish BOS.
Structural Invalidation: If the price moves back to the level of the first swing low before the bullish BOS or the first swing high before the bearish BOS, it invalidates the break of structure, suggesting a potential reversal or continuation of the previous trend.
This method provides users with a technical approach to filter market regimes, offering an advantage by minimizing the risk of overfitting to historical data, which is often a concern with traditional indicators like moving averages.
By focusing on identifying pivotal swing points and the subsequent breaks of structure, the strategy maintains a balance between sensitivity to market changes and robustness against historical data anomalies, ensuring a more adaptable and potentially more reliable market analysis tool.
What entry criteria are used in this script?
The script uses two entry models for trading decisions: BreakOut and Fractal.
Underlying Calculations:
Breakout: The script records the most recent swing high by storing it in a variable. When the price closes above this recorded level, and all other predefined conditions are satisfied, the script triggers a breakout entry. This approach is considered conservative because it waits for the price to confirm a breakout above the previous high before entering a trade. As shown in the image, as soon as the price closes above the new candle (first tick), the long entry gets taken. The stop-loss is initially set and then moved to break-even once the price moves in favor of the trade.
Fractal: This method involves identifying a swing low with a period of 2, which means it looks for a low point where the price is lower than the two candles before and after it. Once this pattern is detected, the script executes the trade. This is an aggressive approach since it doesn't wait for further price confirmation. In the image, this is represented by the 'Fractal 2' label where the script identifies and acts on the swing low pattern.
----
How does the script calculate trend score? What are the underlying calculations?
Market Trend Ratio: The script calculates the ratio of bullish to bearish breakouts. This involves:
Counting Bullish Breakouts: A bullish breakout is counted when the price breaks above a recent swing high (as identified in the strategy's market structure analysis).
Counting Bearish Breakouts: A bearish breakout is counted when the price breaks below a recent swing low.
Percentage-Based Score: This ratio is then converted into a percentage-based score:
For example, if there are 10 bullish breakouts and 5 bearish breakouts in a given timeframe, the ratio would be 10:5 or 2:1. This could be translated into a score where 66.67% (10/(10+5) * 100) represents the bullish trend strength.
The score might be calculated as (Number of Bullish Breakouts / Total Breakouts) * 100.
User-Defined Threshold: The strategy uses this score to determine when to take buy entries. If the trend score exceeds a user-defined percentage threshold, it indicates a strong enough bullish trend to justify a buy entry. For instance, if the user sets the threshold at 60%, the script would look for a buy entry when the trend score is above this level.
Timeframe Consideration: The calculations are performed across the timeframes specified by the user, ensuring the trend score reflects the market's behavior over different periods, which could be daily, weekly, or any other relevant timeframe.
This method provides a quantitative measure of market trend strength, helping to make informed decisions based on the balance between bullish and bearish market movements.
What type of stop-loss identification method are used in this strategy?
This strategy employs two types of stop-loss methods: Initial Stop-loss and Trailing Stop-Loss.
Underlying Calculations:
Initial Stop-loss:
ATR Based: The strategy uses the Average True Range (ATR) to set an initial stop-loss, which helps in accounting for market volatility without predicting price direction.
Calculation:
- First, the True Range (TR) is calculated for each period, which is the greatest of:
- Current Period High - Current Period Low
- Absolute Value of Current Period High - Previous Period Close
- Absolute Value of Current Period Low - Previous Period Close
- The ATR is then the moving average of these TR values over a specified period, typically 14 periods by default. This ATR value can be used to set the stop-loss at a distance from the entry price that reflects the current market volatility.
Swing Low Based:
For this method, the stop-loss is set based on the most recent swing low identified in the market structure analysis. This approach uses the lowest point of the recent price action as a reference for setting the stop-loss.
Trailing Stop-Loss:
The strategy uses structural liquidity and structural invalidation levels across multiple timeframes to adjust the stop-loss once the trade is profitable. This method involves:
Detecting Structural Liquidity: After a break of structure, the liquidity levels are updated to the first swing high in a bullish scenario or the first swing low in a bearish scenario. These levels serve as potential areas where the price might find support or resistance, allowing the stop-loss to trail the price movement.
Detecting Structural Invalidation: If the price returns to the level of the first swing low before a bullish break of structure or the first swing high before a bearish break of structure, it suggests the trend might be reversing or invalidating, prompting the adjustment of the stop-loss to lock in profits or minimize losses.
By using these methods, the strategy dynamically adjusts the initial stop-loss based on market volatility, helping to protect against adverse price movements while allowing for enough room for trades to develop. The ATR-based stop-loss adapts to the current market conditions by considering the volatility, ensuring that the stop-loss is not too tight during volatile periods, which could lead to premature exits, nor too loose during calm markets, which might result in larger losses. Similarly, the swing low based stop-loss provides a logical exit point if the market structure changes unfavorably.
Each market behaves differently across various timeframes, and it is essential to test different parameters and optimizations to find out which trailing stop-loss method gives you the desired results and performance. This involves backtesting the strategy with different settings for the ATR period, the distance from the swing low, and how the trailing stop-loss reacts to structural liquidity and invalidation levels.
Through this process, you can tailor the strategy to perform optimally in different market environments, ensuring that the stop-loss mechanism supports the trade's longevity while safeguarding against significant drawdowns.
What type of break-even and take profit identification methods are used in this strategy? What are the underlying calculations?
For Break-Even:
Percentage (%) Based:
Moves the initial stop-loss to the entry price when the price reaches a certain percentage above the entry.
Calculation:
Break-even level = Entry Price * (1 + Percentage / 100)
Example:
If the entry price is $100 and the break-even percentage is 5%, the break-even level is $100 * 1.05 = $105.
Risk-to-Reward (RR) Based:
Moves the initial stop-loss to the entry price when the price reaches a certain RR ratio.
Calculation:
Break-even level = Entry Price + (Initial Risk * RR Ratio)
For TP
- You can choose to set a take profit level at which your position gets fully closed.
- Similar to break-even, you can select either a percentage (%) or risk-to-reward (RR) based take profit level, allowing you to set your TP1 level as a percentage amount above the entry price or based on RR.
What's the day filter Filter, what does it do?
The day filter allows users to customize the session time and choose the specific days they want to include in the strategy session. This helps traders tailor their strategies to particular trading sessions or days of the week when they believe the market conditions are more favorable for their trading style.
Customize Session Time:
Users can define the start and end times for the trading session.
This allows the strategy to only consider trades within the specified time window, focusing on periods of higher market activity or preferred trading hours.
Select Days:
Users can select which days of the week to include in the strategy.
This feature is useful for excluding days with historically lower volatility or unfavorable trading conditions (e.g., Mondays or Fridays).
Benefits:
Focus on Optimal Trading Periods:
By customizing session times and days, traders can focus on periods when the market is more likely to present profitable opportunities.
Avoid Unfavorable Conditions:
Excluding specific days or times can help avoid trading during periods of low liquidity or high unpredictability, such as major news events or holidays.
What tables are available in this script?
- Summary: Provides a general overview, displaying key performance parameters such as Net Profit, Profit Factor, Max Drawdown, Average Trade, Closed Trades and more.
Total Commission: Displays the cumulative commissions incurred from all trades executed within the selected backtesting window. This value is derived by summing the commission fees for each trade on your chart.
Average Commission: Represents the average commission per trade, calculated by dividing the Total Commission by the total number of closed trades. This metric is crucial for assessing the impact of trading costs on overall profitability.
Avg Trade: The sum of money gained or lost by the average trade generated by a strategy. Calculated by dividing the Net Profit by the overall number of closed trades. An important value since it must be large enough to cover the commission and slippage costs of trading the strategy and still bring a profit.
MaxDD: Displays the largest drawdown of losses, i.e., the maximum possible loss that the strategy could have incurred among all of the trades it has made. This value is calculated separately for every bar that the strategy spends with an open position.
Profit Factor: The amount of money a trading strategy made for every unit of money it lost (in the selected currency). This value is calculated by dividing gross profits by gross losses.
Avg RR: This is calculated by dividing the average winning trade by the average losing trade. This field is not a very meaningful value by itself because it does not take into account the ratio of the number of winning vs losing trades, and strategies can have different approaches to profitability. A strategy may trade at every possibility in order to capture many small profits, yet have an average losing trade greater than the average winning trade. The higher this value is, the better, but it should be considered together with the percentage of winning trades and the net profit.
Winrate: The percentage of winning trades generated by a strategy. Calculated by dividing the number of winning trades by the total number of closed trades generated by a strategy. Percent profitable is not a very reliable measure by itself. A strategy could have many small winning trades, making the percent profitable high with a small average winning trade, or a few big winning trades accounting for a low percent profitable and a big average winning trade. Most mean-reversion successful strategies have a percent profitability of 40-80% but are profitable due to risk management control.
BE Trades: Number of break-even trades, excluding commission/slippage.
Losing Trades: The total number of losing trades generated by the strategy.
Winning Trades: The total number of winning trades generated by the strategy.
Total Trades: Total number of taken traders visible your charts.
Net Profit: The overall profit or loss (in the selected currency) achieved by the trading strategy in the test period. The value is the sum of all values from the Profit column (on the List of Trades tab), taking into account the sign.
- Monthly: Displays performance data on a month-by-month basis, allowing users to analyze performance trends over each month and year.
- Weekly: Displays performance data on a week-by-week basis, helping users to understand weekly performance variations.
- UI Table: A user-friendly table that allows users to view and save the selected strategy parameters from user inputs. This table enables easy access to key settings and configurations, providing a straightforward solution for saving strategy parameters by simply taking a screenshot with Alt + S or ⌥ + S.
User-input styles and customizations:
Please note that all background colors in the style are disabled by default to enhance visualization.

What makes this strategy original?
Incorporation of Fundamental Analysis:
This strategy integrates fundamental analysis by considering key economic indicators such as interest rates, inflation, GDP growth, and unemployment rates. These fundamentals help in assessing the broader economic health, which in turn influences sector performance and market trends. By understanding these economic conditions, the strategy can identify sectors or assets that are likely to thrive, ensuring investments are made in environments conducive to growth. This approach allows for a more informed investment decision, aligning technical entries with fundamentally strong market conditions, thus potentially enhancing the strategy's effectiveness over time.
Technical Analysis Without Classical Methods:
The strategy's technical analysis diverges from traditional methods like moving averages by focusing on market structure through a trend score system.
Instead of using lagging indicators, it employs a real-time analysis of market trends by calculating the ratio of bullish to bearish breakouts. This provides several benefits:
Immediate Market Sentiment: The trend score system reacts more dynamically to current market conditions, offering insights into the market's immediate sentiment rather than historical trends, which can often lag behind real-time changes.
Reduced Overfitting: By not relying on moving averages or similar classical indicators, the strategy avoids the common pitfall of overfitting to historical data, which can lead to poor performance in new market conditions. The trend score provides a fresh perspective on market direction, potentially leading to more robust trading signals.
Clear Entry Signals: With the trend score, entry decisions are based on a clear percentage threshold, making the strategy's decision-making process straightforward and less subjective than interpreting moving average crossovers or similar signals.
Regular Contributions and Reminders:
The strategy encourages regular investments through a system of predefined frequency and amount, which could be weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, quarterly, or yearly. This systematic approach:
Enhances Compounding: Regular contributions leverage the power of compounding, where returns on investments can generate their own returns, potentially leading to exponential growth over time.
Reduces Timing Risk: By investing regularly, the strategy minimizes the risk associated with trying to time the market, spreading out the investment cost over time and potentially reducing the impact of volatility.
Automated Reminders: The script reminds users to make contributions based on their chosen schedule, ensuring consistency and discipline in investment practices, which is crucial for long-term success.
Long-Term Wealth Building:
Focused on long-term wealth accumulation, this strategy:
Promotes Patience and Discipline: By emphasizing regular contributions and a disciplined approach to both entry and risk management, it aligns with the principles of long-term investing, discouraging impulsive decisions based on short-term market fluctuations.
Diversification Across Asset Classes: Operating across crypto, stocks, and commodities, the strategy provides diversification, which is a key component of long-term wealth building, reducing risk through varied exposure.
Growth Over Time: The strategy's design to work with the market's natural growth cycles, supported by fundamental analysis, aims for sustainable growth rather than quick profits, aligning with the goals of investors looking to build wealth over decades.
This comprehensive approach, combining fundamental insights, innovative technical analysis, disciplined investment habits, and a focus on long-term growth, offers a unique and potentially effective pathway for investors seeking to build wealth steadily over time.

Varanormal Mac N Cheez Strategy v1Mac N Cheez Strategy (Set a $200 Take profit Manually)
It's super cheesy. Strategy does the following:
Here's a detailed explanation of what the entire script does, including its key components, functionality, and purpose.
1. Strategy Setup and Input Parameters:
Strategy Name: The script is named "NQ Futures $200/day Strategy" and is set as an overlay, meaning all elements (like moving averages and signals) are plotted on the price chart.
Input Parameters:
fastLength: This sets the length of the fast moving average. The user can adjust this value, and it defaults to 9.
slowLength: This sets the length of the slow moving average. The user can adjust this value, and it defaults to 21.
dailyTarget: The daily profit target, which defaults to $200. If set to 0, this disables the daily profit target.
stopLossAmount: The fixed stop-loss amount per trade, defaulting to $100. This value is used to calculate how much you're willing to lose on a single trade.
trailOffset: This value sets the distance for a trailing stop. It helps protect profits by automatically adjusting the stop-loss as the price moves in your favor.
2. Calculating the Moving Averages:
fastMA: The fast moving average is calculated using the ta.sma() function on the close price with a period length of fastLength. The ta.sma() function calculates the simple moving average.
slowMA: The slow moving average is also calculated using ta.sma() but with the slowLength period.
These moving averages are used to determine trend direction and identify entry points.
3. Buy and Sell Signal Conditions:
longCondition: This is the buy condition. It occurs when the fast moving average crosses above the slow moving average. The script uses ta.crossover() to detect this crossover event.
shortCondition: This is the sell condition. It occurs when the fast moving average crosses below the slow moving average. The script uses ta.crossunder() to detect this crossunder event.
4. Executing Buy and Sell Orders:
Buy Orders: When the longCondition is true (i.e., fast MA crosses above slow MA), the script enters a long position using strategy.entry("Buy", strategy.long).
Sell Orders: When the shortCondition is true (i.e., fast MA crosses below slow MA), the script enters a short position using strategy.entry("Sell", strategy.short).
5. Setting Stop Loss and Trailing Stop:
Stop-Loss for Long Positions: The stop-loss is calculated as the entry price minus the stopLossAmount. If the price falls below this level, the trade is exited automatically.
Stop-Loss for Short Positions: The stop-loss is calculated as the entry price plus the stopLossAmount. If the price rises above this level, the short trade is exited.
Trailing Stop: The trail_offset dynamically adjusts the stop-loss as the price moves in favor of the trade, locking in profits while still allowing room for market fluctuations.
6. Conditional Daily Profit Target:
The script includes a daily profit target that automatically closes all trades once the total profit for the day reaches or exceeds the dailyTarget.
Conditional Logic:
If the dailyTarget is greater than 0, the strategy checks whether the strategy.netprofit (total profit for the day) has reached or exceeded the target.
If the strategy.netprofit >= dailyTarget, the script calls strategy.close_all(), closing all open trades for the day and stopping further trading.
If dailyTarget is set to 0, this logic is skipped, and the script continues trading without a daily profit target.
7. Plotting Moving Averages:
plot(fastMA): This plots the fast moving average as a blue line on the price chart.
plot(slowMA): This plots the slow moving average as a red line on the price chart. These help visualize the crossover points and the trend direction on the chart.
8. Plotting Buy and Sell Signals:
plotshape(): The script uses plotshape() to add visual markers when buy or sell conditions are met:
"Long Signal": When a buy condition (longCondition) is met, a green marker is plotted below the price bar with the label "Long".
"Short Signal": When a sell condition (shortCondition) is met, a red marker is plotted above the price bar with the label "Short".
These markers help traders quickly see when buy or sell signals occurred on the chart.
In addition, triangle markers are plotted:
Green Triangle: Indicates where a buy entry occurred.
Red Triangle: Indicates where a sell entry occurred.
Summary of What the Script Does:
Inputs: The script allows the user to adjust moving average lengths, daily profit targets, stop-loss amounts, and trailing stop offsets.
Signals: It generates buy and sell signals based on the crossovers of the fast and slow moving averages.
Order Execution: It executes long positions on buy signals and short positions on sell signals.
Stop-Loss and Trailing Stop: It sets dynamic stop-losses and uses a trailing stop to protect profits.
Daily Profit Target: The strategy stops trading for the day once the net profit reaches the daily target (unless the target is disabled by setting it to 0).
Visual Markers: It plots moving averages and buy/sell signals directly on the main price chart to aid in visual analysis.
This script is designed to trade based on moving average crossovers, with robust risk management features like stop-loss and trailing stops, along with an optional daily profit target to limit daily trading activity. Let me know if you need further clarification or want to adjust any specific part of the script!
Fibonacci-Only StrategyFibonacci-Only Strategy
This script is a custom trading strategy designed for traders who leverage Fibonacci retracement levels to identify potential trade entries and exits. The strategy is versatile, allowing users to trade across multiple timeframes, with built-in options for dynamic stop loss, trailing stops, and take profit levels.
Key Features:
Custom Fibonacci Levels:
This strategy calculates three specific Fibonacci retracement levels: 19%, 82.56%, and the reverse 19% level. These levels are used to identify potential areas of support and resistance where price reversals or breaks might occur.
The Fibonacci levels are calculated based on the highest and lowest prices within a 100-bar period, making them dynamic and responsive to recent market conditions.
Dynamic Entry Conditions:
Touch Entry: The script enters long or short positions when the price touches specific Fibonacci levels and confirms the move with a bullish (for long) or bearish (for short) candle.
Break Entry (Optional): If the "Use Break Strategy" option is enabled, the script can also enter positions when the price breaks through Fibonacci levels, providing more aggressive entry opportunities.
Stop Loss Management:
The script offers flexible stop loss settings. Users can choose between a fixed percentage stop loss or an ATR-based stop loss, which adjusts based on market volatility.
The ATR (Average True Range) stop loss is multiplied by a user-defined factor, allowing for tailored risk management based on market conditions.
Trailing Stop Mechanism:
The script includes an optional trailing stop feature, which adjusts the stop loss level as the market moves in favor of the trade. This helps lock in profits while allowing the trade to run if the trend continues.
The trailing stop is calculated as a percentage of the difference between the entry price and the current market price.
Multiple Take Profit Levels:
The strategy calculates seven take profit levels, each at incremental percentages above (for long trades) or below (for short trades) the entry price. This allows for gradual profit-taking as the market moves in the trade's favor.
Each take profit level can be customized in terms of the percentage of the position to be closed, providing precise control over exit strategies.
Strategy Backtesting and Results:
Realistic Backtesting:
The script has been backtested with realistic account sizes, commission rates, and slippage settings to ensure that the results are applicable to actual trading scenarios.
The backtesting covers various timeframes and markets to ensure the strategy's robustness across different trading environments.
Default Settings:
The script is published with default settings that have been optimized for general use. These settings include a 15-minute timeframe, a 1.0% stop loss, a 2.0 ATR multiplier for stop loss, and a 1.5% trailing stop.
Users can adjust these settings to better fit their specific trading style or the market they are trading.
How It Works:
Long Entry Conditions:
The strategy enters a long position when the price touches the 19% Fibonacci level (from high to low) or the reverse 19% level (from low to high) and confirms the move with a bullish candle.
If the "Use Break Strategy" option is enabled, the script will also enter a long position when the price breaks below the 19% Fibonacci level and then moves back up, confirming the break with a bullish candle.
Short Entry Conditions:
The strategy enters a short position when the price touches the 82.56% Fibonacci level and confirms the move with a bearish candle.
If the "Use Break Strategy" option is enabled, the script will also enter a short position when the price breaks above the 82.56% Fibonacci level and then moves back down, confirming the break with a bearish candle.
Stop Loss and Take Profit Logic:
The stop loss for each trade is calculated based on the selected method (fixed percentage or ATR-based). The strategy then manages the trade by either trailing the stop or taking profit at predefined levels.
The take profit levels are set at increments of 0.5% above or below the entry price, depending on whether the position is long or short. The script gradually exits the trade as these levels are hit, securing profits while minimizing risk.
Usage:
For Fibonacci Traders:
This script is ideal for traders who rely on Fibonacci retracement levels to find potential trade entries and exits. The script automates the process, allowing traders to focus on market analysis and decision-making.
For Trend and Swing Traders:
The strategy's flexibility in handling both touch and break entries makes it suitable for trend-following and swing trading strategies. The multiple take profit levels allow traders to capture profits in trending markets while managing risk.
Important Notes:
Originality: This script uniquely combines Fibonacci retracement levels with dynamic stop loss management and multiple take profit levels. It is not just a combination of existing indicators but a thoughtful integration designed to enhance trading performance.
Disclaimer: Trading involves risk, and it is crucial to test this script in a demo account or through backtesting before applying it to live trading. Users should ensure that the settings align with their individual risk tolerance and trading strategy.
Bollinger Bands Enhanced StrategyOverview
The common practice of using Bollinger bands is to use it for building mean reversion or squeeze momentum strategies. In the current script Bollinger Bands Enhanced Strategy we are trying to combine the strengths of both strategies types. It utilizes Bollinger Bands indicator to buy the local dip and activates trailing profit system after reaching the user given number of Average True Ranges (ATR). Also it uses 200 period EMA to filter trades only in the direction of a trend. Strategy can execute only long trades.
Unique Features
Trailing Profit System: Strategy uses user given number of ATR to activate trailing take profit. If price has already reached the trailing profit activation level, scrip will close long trade if price closes below Bollinger Bands middle line.
Configurable Trading Periods: Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Major Trend Filter: Strategy utilizes 100 period EMA to take trades only in the direction of a trend.
Flexible Risk Management: Users can choose number of ATR as a stop loss (by default = 1.75) for trades. This is flexible approach because ATR is recalculated on every candle, therefore stop-loss readjusted to the current volatility.
Methodology
First of all, script checks if currently price is above the 200-period exponential moving average EMA. EMA is used to establish the current trend. Script will take long trades on if this filtering system showing us the uptrend. Then the strategy executes the long trade if candle’s low below the lower Bollinger band. To calculate the middle Bollinger line, we use the standard 20-period simple moving average (SMA), lower band is calculated by the substruction from middle line the standard deviation multiplied by user given value (by default = 2).
When long trade executed, script places stop-loss at the price level below the entry price by user defined number of ATR (by default = 1.75). This stop-loss level recalculates at every candle while trade is open according to the current candle ATR value. Also strategy set the trailing profit activation level at the price above the position average price by user given number of ATR (by default = 2.25). It is also recalculated every candle according to ATR value. When price hit this level script plotted the triangle with the label “Strong Uptrend” and start trail the price at the middle Bollinger line. It also started to be plotted as a green line.
When price close below this trailing level script closes the long trade and search for the next trade opportunity.
Risk Management
The strategy employs a combined and flexible approach to risk management:
It allows positions to ride the trend as long as the price continues to move favorably, aiming to capture significant price movements. It features a user-defined ATR stop loss parameter to mitigate risks based on individual risk tolerance. By default, this stop-loss is set to a 1.75*ATR drop from the entry point, but it can be adjusted according to the trader's preferences.
There is no fixed take profit, but strategy allows user to define user the ATR trailing profit activation parameter. By default, this stop-loss is set to a 2.25*ATR growth from the entry point, but it can be adjusted according to the trader's preferences.
Justification of Methodology
This strategy leverages Bollinger bangs indicator to open long trades in the local dips. If price reached the lower band there is a high probability of bounce. Here is an issue: during the strong downtrend price can constantly goes down without any significant correction. That’s why we decided to use 200-period EMA as a trend filter to increase the probability of opening long trades during major uptrend only.
Usually, Bollinger Bands indicator is using for mean reversion or breakout strategies. Both of them have the disadvantages. The mean reversion buys the dip, but closes on the return to some mean value. Therefore, it usually misses the major trend moves. The breakout strategies usually have the issue with too high buy price because to have the breakout confirmation price shall break some price level. Therefore, in such strategies traders need to set the large stop-loss, which decreases potential reward to risk ratio.
In this strategy we are trying to combine the best features of both types of strategies. Script utilizes ate ATR to setup the stop-loss and trailing profit activation levels. ATR takes into account the current volatility. Therefore, when we setup stop-loss with the user-given number of ATR we increase the probability to decrease the number of false stop outs. The trailing profit concept is trying to add the beat feature from breakout strategies and increase probability to stay in trade while uptrend is developing. When price hit the trailing profit activation level, script started to trail the price with middle line if Bollinger bands indicator. Only when candle closes below the middle line script closes the long trade.

TENKAN SCALPER STRATEGYTENKAN SCALP is a fully automatic trading system.
It is a continuation of our previous ichimoku release. This time however we throw out the rule book and use ICHIMOKU in a very different way.
It applies non traditional money management tactics.
While most trading strategies rely on a stop loss and a take profit target to manage risk. This strategy uses either no stop loss at all or a time based stop loss.
You might ask yourself the question why would you keep a trade open if it goes against you? Here are a phew reasons why the script does what it does.
Forex Markets consolidate most of the time. If you wait long enough your Take Profit will get hit anyways most of the time
You don't have to risk everything per trade. I keep my orders small so to keep some powder to get into some more trades
All the extra trades you take while one trade is in drawdown limit the drawdown as they provide cashflow
On lower timeframes the markets are so chaotic that a stop loss is very likely to get hit by a wick
About backtest below
This backtest uses a spread of 2 pips for entries and a default position size of 100% of equity. This is only possible on exchanges where spread is low and you have 10:1 leverage or more. It does not represent results obtainable without leverage. Do take into account that there are a lot of forex exchanges that provide this leverage, however a 2 pip spread is not always guaranteed and only applies to major pairs.
This backtest does not use the TIME BASED STOPS functionality.
Always start with small position sizing and see how the strategy performs before adding risk.
Explanation of variables:
Chikou(lagging span): pink line, this is price plotted 26 bars ago. People ignore the power of this it is crucial to see how chikou behaves towards past price action as seen in the chart below where we got an entry at red arrow because chikou bounced from past fractal bottom.
Kijun-Sen(base line): Black line or color coded line. This is the equilibrium of last 26 candles. To me this is the most important line in the system as it attracts price.
Kijun = (Highest high of 26 periods + Lowest low of 26 periods) ÷ 2
Tenkan-Sen(conversion line): Blue line. This is the equilibrium of last 9 candles. In a strong uptrend price stays above this line.
Tenkan = (Highest high of 9 periods + Lowest low of 9 periods) ÷ 2
Senkou A (Leading span A)= Pink cloud line, this is the average of the 2 components projected 26 bars in the future.
Senkou A = (Tenkan + Kijun) ÷ 2
Senkou B (Leading span B) = Green cloud line, this is the 52 day equilibrium projected 26 bars in the future.
Senkou B = (Highest high of prior 52 periods + Lowest low of prior 52 periods) ÷ 2
projection: Script uses same function for variable calculation and substracts a number on each next bar as to make a projection of where the variable will be in future bars if price stayed the same. This works as ICHIMOKU calculations use the middle point of a past set of data. The shorter that amount of bars will be in line with the data that it will be restricted to in future if price stayed the same.
Detection of Market Environment
To enter trades the script uses a lot of ICHIMOKU concepts. Contrary to how most people trade ICHIMOKU this script takes an environment that ICHIMOKU identifies as trending upwards and shorts in that environment. The same will be applied to a downtrend where it will open LONGS.
List of CRITERIA for a trend:
Grapling Hook: this is a component based on the chikou span (closing price displaced 26 bars into the past). The script will use an ATR based range to define a possible future projection to the CHIKOU line. For a market to be bullish there should be no price action happening within this area. Market is free to move upwards. Vice versa for bearish .
Kumo Cloud: script will check if price is above the cloud for bullish trend and below cloud for bearish trend .
Chikou above Kijun: script will check if the chikou line is above the KIJUN line of 26 bars ago. This is further confirmation that price is trending high enough compared to it's past data. Vice versa for downtrend.
Kijun projection: script will check if past Kijun is lower than future projected Kijun. This to ensure we get an equilibrium in our favour in the future. Vice versa for downtrend
Tenkan projection: script will check if future Tenkan-sen will be higher than Kijun-sen for an uptrend. Vice versa for downtrend.
Cloud projection: script will check if in 9 bars the Senkou Span A will be higher than Senkou Span B for an uptrend. Vice versa for downtrend.
Example:
This script does not visualise the prediction lines like I show in the example. I show them here to clarify how the script works.
Usage
Backtests are not indicative of future results, although a trader may want to use a strategy script to have a deeper understanding of how their strategy responds to varying market conditions, or as a tool for identifying possible flaws for a strategy that may be indicative of good or bad performance in the future.
Strategy Settings:
Minimum Body Size (atr): this is the minimum ATR a signal bar needs to be for entry. This is useful because our TP is based on previous bar.
Lot size per trade: this setting does not impact backtest. It is used to for the signals to let tradingconnect.com know your position size.
Direction: do you want to trade longs or shorts. I personally use both a long bot and a short bot at the same time.
Positions Allowed: the amount of positions the script will keep open as a maximum. You do not want to open too many positions, this is for risk management.
Close all positions at drawdown: if total open positions loss gets to this % target it will close all positions.
MetaTrader Prefix: when the script sends a signal it will put this text right before the symbol name from syminfo.ticker
MetaTrader Suffix: when the script sends a signal it will put this text right after the symbol name from syminfo.ticker
Charts below are some examples on how the script handles orders on default settings:
without time based SL
with time based SL
how it handles pyramiding

Tradingconnector.com:
For full automation of the forex market the script uses this connector to execute trade on MT4. The alerts the script sends using the alerts() function call are structured in a way tradingconnector will recognise and send directly to MT4. You can find documentation about this tool on their own website.
Personal recommendation is to start with a minimum lot size and track performance, if you are comfortable scale the size up. You can do that by increasing the lot size setting in the script and making a new alert. Make sure to delete the old one.

Bjorgum Double Tap█ OVERVIEW
Double Tap is a pattern recognition script aimed at detecting Double Tops and Double Bottoms. Double Tap can be applied to the broker emulator to observe historical results, run as a trading bot for live trade alerts in real time with entry signals, take profit, and stop orders, or to simply detect patterns.
█ CONCEPTS
How Is A Pattern Defined?
Doubles are technical formations that are both reversal patterns and breakout patterns. These formations typically have a distinctive “M” or a “W” shape with price action breaking beyond the neckline formed by the center of the pattern. They can be recognized when a pivot fails to break when tested for a second time and the retracement that follows breaks beyond the key level opposite. This can trap entrants that were playing in the direction of the prior trend. Entries are made on the breakout with a target projected beyond the neckline equal to the height of the pattern.
Pattern Recognition
Patterns are recognized through the use of zig-zag; a method of filtering price action by connecting swing highs and lows in an alternating fashion to establish trend, support and resistance, or derive shapes from price action. The script looks for the highest or lowest point in a given number of bars and updates a list with the values as they form. If the levels are exceeded, the values are updated. If the direction changes and a new significant point is made, a new point is added to the list and the process starts again. Meanwhile, we scan the list of values looking for the distinctive shape to form as previously described.
█ STRATEGY RESULTS
Back Testing
Historical back testing is the most common method to test a strategy due in part to the general ease of gathering quick results. The underlying theory is that any strategy that worked well in the past is likely to work well in the future, and conversely, any strategy that performed poorly in the past is likely to perform poorly in the future. It is easy to poke holes in this theory, however, as for one to accept it as gospel, one would have to assume that future results will match what has come to pass. The randomness of markets may see to it otherwise, so it is important to scrutinize results. Some commonly used methods are to compare to other markets or benchmarks, perform statistical analysis on the results over many iterations and on differing datasets, walk-forward testing, out-of-sample analysis, or a variety of other techniques. There are many ways to interpret the results, so it is important to do research and gain knowledge in the field prior to taking meaningful conclusions from them.
👉 In short, it would be naive to place trust in one good backtest and expect positive results to continue. For this reason, results have been omitted from this publication.
Repainting
Repainting is simply the difference in behaviour of a strategy in real time vs the results calculated on the historical dataset. The strategy, by default, will wait for confirmed signals and is thus designed to not repaint. Waiting for bar close for entires aligns results in the real time data feed to those calculated on historical bars, which contain far less data. By doing this we align the behaviour of the strategy on the 2 data types, which brings significance to the calculated results. To override this behaviour and introduce repainting one can select "Recalculate on every tick" from the properties tab. It is important to note that by doing this alerts may not align with results seen in the strategy tester when the chart is reloaded, and thus to do so is to forgo backtesting and restricts a strategy to forward testing only.
👉 It is possible to use this script as an indicator as opposed to a full strategy by disabling "Use Strategy" in the "Inputs" tab. Basic alerts for detection will be sent when patterns are detected as opposed to complex order syntax. For alerts mid-bar enable "Recalculate on every tick" , and for confirmed signals ensure it is disabled.
█ EXIT ORDERS
Limit and Stop Orders
By default, the strategy will place a stop loss at the invalidation point of the pattern. This point is beyond the pattern high in the case of Double Tops, or beneath the pattern low in the case of Double Bottoms. The target or take profit point is an equal-legs measurement, or 100% of the pattern height in the direction of the pattern bias. Both the stop and the limit level can be adjusted from the user menu as a percentage of the pattern height.
Trailing Stops
Optional from the menu is the implementation of an ATR based trailing stop. The trailing stop is designed to begin when the target projection is reached. From there, the script looks back a user-defined number of bars for the highest or lowest point +/- the ATR value. For tighter stops the user can look back a lesser number of bars, or decrease the ATR multiple. When using either Alertatron or Trading Connector, each change in the trail value will trigger an alert to update the stop order on the exchange to reflect the new trail price. This reduces latency and slippage that can occur when relying on alerts only as real exchange orders fill faster and remain in place in the event of a disruption in communication between your strategy and the exchange, which ensures a higher level of safety.
👉 It is important to note that in the case the trailing stop is enabled, limit orders are excluded from the exit criteria. Rather, the point in time that the limit value is exceeded is the point that the trail begins. As such, this method will exit by stop loss only.
█ ALERTS
Five Built-in 3rd Party Destinations
The following are five options for delivering alerts from Double Tap to live trade execution via third party API solutions or chat bots to share your trades on social media. These destinations can be selected from the input menu and alert syntax will automatically configure in alerts appropriately to manage trades.
Custom JSON
JSON, or JavaScript Object Notation, is a readable format for structuring data. It is used primarily to transmit data between a server and a web application. In regards to this script, this may be a custom intermediary web application designed to catch alerts and interface with an exchange API. The JSON message is a trade map for an application to read equipped with where its been, where its going, targets, stops, quantity; a full diagnostic of the current state and its previous state. A web application could be configured to follow the messages sent in this format and conduct trades in sync with alerts running on the TV server.
Below is an example of a rendered JSON alert:
{
"passphrase": "1234",
"time": "2022-05-01T17:50:05Z",
"ticker": "ETHUSDTPERP",
"plot": {
"stop_price": 2600.15,
"limit_price": 3100.45
},
"strategy": {
"position_size": 0.1,
"order_action": "buy",
"market_position": "long",
"market_position_size": 0,
"prev_market_position": "flat",
"prev_market_position_size": 0
}
}
Trading Connector
Trading Connector is a third party fully autonomous Chrome extension designed to catch alert webhooks from TradingView and interface with MT4/MT5 to execute live trades from your machine. Alerts to Trading Connector are simple; just select the destination from the input drop down menu, set your ticker in the "TC Ticker" box in the "Alert Strings" section and enter your URL in the alert window when configuring your alert.
Alertatron
Alertatron is an automated algo platform for cryptocurrency trading that is designed to automate your trading strategies. Although the platform is currently restricted to crypto, it offers a versatile interface with high flexibility syntax for complex market orders and conditions. To direct alerts to Alertatron, select the platform from the 3rd party drop down, configure your API key in the ”Alertatron Key” box and add your URL in the alert message box when making alerts.
3 Commas
3 Commas is an easy and quick to use click-and-go third party crypto API solution. Alerts are simple without overly complex syntax. Messages are simply pasted into alerts and executed as alerts are triggered. There are 4 boxes at the bottom of the "Inputs" tab where the appropriate messages to be placed. These messages can be copied from 3 Commas after the bots are set up and pasted directly into the settings menu. Remember to select 3 Commas as a destination from the third party drop down and place the appropriate URL in the alert message window.
Discord
Some may wish to share their trades with their friends in a Discord chat via webhook chat bot. Messages are configured to notify of the pattern type with targets and stop values. A bot can be configured through the integration menu in a Discord chat to which you have appropriate access. Select Discord from the 3rd party drop down menu and place your chat bot URL in the alert message window when configuring alerts.
👉 For further information regarding alert setup, refer to the platform specific instructions given by the chosen third party provider.
█ IMPORTANT NOTES
Setting Alerts
For alert messages to be properly delivered on order fills it is necessary to place the following placeholder in the alert message box when creating an alert.
{{strategy.order.alert_message}}
This placeholder will auto-populate the alert message with the appropriate syntax that is designated for the 3rd party selected in the user menu.
Order Sizing and Commissions
The values that are sent in alert messages are populated from live metrics calculated by the strategy. This means that the actual values in the "Properties" tab are used and must be set by the user. The initial capital, order size, commission, etc. are all used in the calculations, so it is important to set these prior to executing live trades. Be sure to set the commission to the values used by the exchange as well.
👉 It is important to understand that the calculations on the account size take place from the beginning of the price history of the strategy. This means that if historical results have inflated or depleted the account size from the beginning of trade history until now, the values sent in alerts will reflect the calculated size based on the inputs in the "Properties" tab. To start fresh, the user must set the date in the "Inputs" tab to the current date as to remove trades from the trade history. Failure to follow this instruction can result in an unexpected order size being sent in the alert.
█ FOR PINECODERS
• With the recent introduction of matrices in Pine, the script utilizes a matrix to track pivot points with the bars they occurred on, while tracking if that pivot has been traded against to prevent duplicate detections after a trade is exited.
• Alert messages are populated with placeholders ; capability that previously was only possible in alertcondition() , but has recently been extended to `strategy.*()` functions for use in the `alert_message` argument. This allows delivery of live trade values to populate in strategy alert messages.
• New arguments have been added to strategy.exit() , which allow differentiated messages to be sent based on whether the exit occurred at the stop or the limit. The new arguments used in this script are `alert_profit` and `alert_loss` to send messages to Discord
Ebb N Flo Trend [Backtester]Ebb n Flo Trend is a trend indicator that makes use of higher time frame High - Low pivots to determine when a trend has changed
In order to reduce over trading, and to reduce fake outs, the script relies on a clever combination of Fib ratio expansions and an averaged candle close
By combining the above strategies, the trend indicator forms a trailing trend indicator
The script determines when the current market condition has crossed over or under the trailing trend, and based on the closing conditions will change the trend of the script signaling a change. If the trend indicator is below the current market and green, the trend is bullish. If the trend is above the market and red, the trend is bearish
The indicator does not repaint, as such, once a signal has been received, the condition has been met on a previous candle and is final
Trend indicator can be used on any markets, for both Long and Short swings, however is best suited for long term trading on certain crypto markets (based on backtesting results). Be on the lookout for pairs with decent volume on reputable exchanges. It is not a holy grail type script for all markets. The key is to find enough to diversify your trades.
As can be seen in the backtester results, the script performs exceptionally well when trading using the 1W higher time frame (selection in the script settings), in the 1D current time frame (selecting the chart time frame)
The script is ideal for the beginner trader that cannot spend hours everyday looking at charts.
The backtesting results are based on allocating 10% of your portfolio to a single trade - this should be determined by your risk appetite.
There are risks associated with any form of investing. Never invest more than you are willing to lose. Past performance is not a guarantee or predictor of future performance. Do your own due diligence before making any investment decisions.
Configuration:
The dropdown in the script selects the time frame for Highs and Lows that the script must consider, and the chart time frame is the time frame of which closing conditions the script should use
Alerts:
The indicator comes with 2 off alerts: open_LONG and open_SHORT, which in itself is self explanatory, however, due to the slow trading nature of the script, alerts are generally not needed
Once you receive access to the trial version, you will also receive a link to a video that will show you exactly how to set up the script

TradingView Alerts to MT4 MT5 - Forex, indices, commoditiesHowdy Algo-Traders! This example script has been created for educational purposes - to present how to use and automatically execute TradingView Alerts on real markets.
I'm posting this script today for a reason. TradingView has just released a new feature of the PineScript language - ALERT() function. Why is it important? It is finally possible to set alerts inside PineScript strategy-type script, without the need to convert the script into study-type. You may say triggering alerts straight from strategies was possible in PineScript before (since June 2020), but it had its limitations. Starting today you can attach alert to any custom event you might want to include in your PineScript code.
With the new feature, it is easier not only to execute strategies, but to maintain codebase - having to update 2 versions of the code with each single modification was... ahem... inconvenient. Moreover, the need to convert strategy into study also meant it was required to rip the code from all strategy...() calls, which carried a lot of useful information, like entry price, position size, and more, definitely influencing results calculated by strategy backtest. So the strategy without these features very likely produced different results than with them. While it was possible to convert these features into study with some advanced "coding gymnastics", it was also quite difficult to test whether those gymnastics didn't introduce serious, bankrupting bugs.
//////
How does this new feature work? It is really simple. On your custom events in the code like "GoLong" or "GoShort", create a string variable containing all the values you need inside your alert and this string variable will be your alert's message. Then, invoke brand new alert() function and that's it (see lines 67 onwards in the script). Set it up in CreateAlert popup and enjoy. Alerts will trigger on candle close as freq= parameter specifies. Detailed specification of the new alert() function can be found in TradingView's PineScript Reference (www.tradingview.com), but there's nothing more than message= and freq= parameters. Nothing else is needed, it is very simple. Yet powerful :)
//////
Alert syntax in this script is prepared to work with TradingConnector. Strategy here is not too complex, but also not the most basic one: it includes full exits, partial exits, stop-losses and it also utilizes dynamic variables calculated by the code (such as stop-loss price). This is only an example use case, because you could handle variety of other functionalities as well: conditional entries, pending entries, pyramiding, hedging, moving stop-loss to break-even, delivering alerts to multiple brokers and more.
//////
This script is a spin-off from my previous work, posted over a year ago here: Some comments on strategy parameters have been discussed there, but let me copy-paste most important points:
* Commission is taken into consideration.
* Slippage is intentionally left at 0. Due to shorter than 1 second delivery time of TradingConnector, slippage is practically non-existing.
* This strategy is NON-REPAINTING and uses NO TRAILING-STOP or any other feature known to be causing problems.
* The strategy was backtested on EURUSD 6h timeframe, will perform differently on other markets and timeframes.
Despite the fact this strategy seems to be still profitable, it is not guaranteed it will continue to perform well in the future. Remember the no.1 rule of backtesting - no matter how profitable and good looking a script is, it only tells about the past. There is zero guarantee the same strategy will get similar results in the future.

Box Chart Overlay StrategyExploring the Box Chart Overlay Strategy with RSI & Bollinger Confirmation
The “Box Chart Overlay Strategy by BD” is a sophisticated TradingView strategy script written in Pine Script (version 5). It combines a box charting method with two widely used technical indicators—Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Bollinger Bands—to generate trade entries. In this article, we break down the strategy’s components, its logic, and how it visually represents trading signals on the chart.
1. Strategy Setup and User Inputs
Strategy Declaration
At the top of the script, the strategy is declared with key parameters:
Overlay: The indicator is plotted directly on the price chart.
Initial Capital & Position Sizing: It uses a simulated trading account with an initial capital of 10,000 and positions sized as a percentage of equity (10% by default).
Commission: A commission of 0.1% is factored into trades.
Input Parameters
The strategy is highly customizable. Users can adjust various inputs such as:
Box Settings:
Box Size (RSboxSize): Defines the size of each price “box.”
Box Options: Choose from three modes:
Standard: Boxes are calculated continuously from the start of the chart.
Anchored: The first box is fixed at a specified time and price.
Daily Reset: The boxes reset each day based on a defined session time.
Color Customizations:
Options to customize the appearance of boxes, borders, labels, and even repainting the candles based on the current price’s relation to box levels.
RSI Settings:
Length, overbought, and oversold levels are set to filter trades.
Bollinger Bands Settings:
Users can set the length of the moving average and the multiplier for standard deviation, which will be used to compute the upper and lower bands.
2. The Box Chart Mechanism
Box Construction
The core idea of a box chart is to group price movement into discrete blocks—or boxes—of a fixed size. In this strategy:
Standard Mode:
The script calculates boxes starting at a rounded price level. When the price moves sufficiently above or below the current box’s boundaries, a new box is drawn.
Anchored and Daily Reset Modes:
These modes allow traders to control where the box calculations begin or to reset them during a specific intraday session.
Visual Elements
Several custom functions handle the visual components:
drawBoxUp() and drawBoxDn():
These functions create boxes in bullish or bearish directions respectively, based on whether the price has exceeded the current box’s high or low.
drawLines() and drawLabels():
Lines are drawn to extend the current box levels, and labels are updated to display key levels or the “remainder” (the difference needed to trigger a new box).
Projected Boxes:
A “projected” box is drawn to indicate potential upcoming box levels, providing an additional visual cue about the price action.
3. Integrating RSI and Bollinger Bands for Trade Confirmation
RSI Integration
The strategy computes the RSI using a user-defined length. It then uses the following conditions to validate entries:
Long Trades (Box Up):
The strategy waits for the RSI to be at or below the oversold level before considering a long entry.
Short Trades (Box Down):
It requires the RSI to be at or above the overbought level before triggering a short entry.
Bollinger Bands Confirmation
In addition to the RSI filter:
For Long Entries:
The price must be at or below the lower Bollinger Band.
For Short Entries:
The price must be at or above the upper Bollinger Band.
By combining these filters with the box breakout logic, the strategy aims to enhance the quality of its trade signals.
4. Dynamic Trade Entries and Alerts
Box Logic and Entry Functions
Two key functions—BoxUpFunc() and BoxDownFunc()—handle the creation of new boxes and also check if trade conditions are met:
When a new box is drawn, the script evaluates if the RSI and Bollinger conditions align.
If conditions are satisfied, the script places an entry order:
Long Entry: Initiated when the price moves upward, RSI indicates oversold, and the price touches or falls below the lower Bollinger Band.
Short Entry: Triggered when the price falls downward, RSI signals overbought, and the price touches or exceeds the upper Bollinger Band.
Alerts
Built-in alert functions notify traders when a new box level is reached. Users can set custom alert messages to ensure they are aware of potential trade opportunities as soon as the conditions are met.
5. Visual Enhancements and Candle Repainting
The script also includes options for repainting candles based on their relation to the current box’s boundaries:
Above, Below, or Within the Box:
Candles are color-coded using user-defined colors, making it easier to visually assess where the price is in relation to the box levels.
Labels and Lines:
These continuously update to reflect current levels and provide an immediate visual reference for potential breakout points.
Conclusion
The Box Chart Overlay Strategy by BD is a multi-faceted approach that marries the traditional box chart technique with modern technical indicators—RSI and Bollinger Bands—to refine entry signals. By offering various customization options for box creation, visual styling, and confirmation criteria, the strategy allows traders to adapt it to different market conditions and personal trading styles. Whether you prefer a continuously running “Standard” mode or a more controlled “Anchored” or “Daily Reset” approach, this strategy provides a robust framework for integrating price action with momentum and volatility measures.
Dow Theory Trend StrategyDow Theory Trend Strategy (Pine Script)
Overview
This Pine Script implements a trading strategy based on the core principles of Dow Theory. It visually identifies trends (uptrend, downtrend) by analyzing pivot highs and lows and executes trades when the trend direction changes. This script is an improved version that features refined trend determination logic and strategy implementation.
Core Concept: Dow Theory
The script uses a fundamental Dow Theory concept for trend identification:
Uptrend: Characterized by a series of Higher Highs (HH) and Higher Lows (HL).
Downtrend: Characterized by a series of Lower Highs (LH) and Lower Lows (LL).
How it Works
Pivot Point Detection:
It uses the built-in ta.pivothigh() and ta.pivotlow() functions to identify significant swing points (potential highs and lows) in the price action.
The pivotLookback input determines the number of bars to the left and right required to confirm a pivot. Note that this introduces a natural lag (equal to pivotLookback bars) before a pivot is confirmed.
Improved Trend Determination:
The script stores the last two confirmed pivot highs and the last two confirmed pivot lows.
An Uptrend (trendDirection = 1) is confirmed only when the latest pivot high is higher than the previous one (HH) AND the latest pivot low is higher than the previous one (HL).
A Downtrend (trendDirection = -1) is confirmed only when the latest pivot high is lower than the previous one (LH) AND the latest pivot low is lower than the previous one (LL).
Key Improvement: If neither a clear uptrend nor a clear downtrend is confirmed based on the latest pivots, the script maintains the previous trend state (trendDirection := trendDirection ). This differs from simpler implementations that might switch to a neutral/range state (e.g., trendDirection = 0) more frequently. This approach aims for smoother trend following, acknowledging that trends often persist through periods without immediate new HH/HL or LH/LL confirmations.
Trend Change Detection:
The script monitors changes in the trendDirection variable.
changedToUp becomes true when the trend shifts to an Uptrend (from Downtrend or initial state).
changedToDown becomes true when the trend shifts to a Downtrend (from Uptrend or initial state).
Visualizations
Background Color: The chart background is colored to reflect the currently identified trend:
Blue: Uptrend (trendDirection == 1)
Red: Downtrend (trendDirection == -1)
Gray: Initial state or undetermined (trendDirection == 0)
Pivot Points (Optional): Small triangles (shape.triangledown/shape.triangleup) can be displayed above pivot highs and below pivot lows if showPivotPoints is enabled.
Trend Change Signals (Optional): Labels ("▲ UP" / "▼ DOWN") can be displayed when a trend change is confirmed (changedToUp / changedToDown) if showTrendChange is enabled. These visually mark the potential entry points for the strategy.
Strategy Logic
Entry Conditions:
Enters a long position (strategy.long) using strategy.entry("L", ...) when changedToUp becomes true.
Enters a short position (strategy.short) using strategy.entry("S", ...) when changedToDown becomes true.
Position Management: The script uses strategy.entry(), which automatically handles position reversal. If the strategy is long and a short signal occurs, strategy.entry() will close the long position and open a new short one (and vice-versa).
Inputs
pivotLookback: The number of bars on each side to confirm a pivot high/low. Higher values mean pivots are confirmed later but may be more significant.
showPivotPoints: Toggle visibility of pivot point markers.
showTrendChange: Toggle visibility of the trend change labels ("▲ UP" / "▼ DOWN").
Key Improvements from Original
Smoother Trend Logic: The trend state persists unless a confirmed reversal pattern (opposite HH/HL or LH/LL) occurs, reducing potential whipsaws in choppy markets compared to logic that frequently resets to neutral.
Strategy Implementation: Converted from a pure indicator to a strategy capable of executing backtests and potentially live trades based on the Dow Theory trend changes.
Disclaimer
Dow Theory signals are inherently lagging due to the nature of pivot confirmation.
The effectiveness of the strategy depends heavily on the market conditions and the chosen pivotLookback setting.
This script serves as a basic template. Always perform thorough backtesting and implement proper risk management (e.g., stop-loss, take-profit, position sizing) before considering any live trading.
Pure Price Action Breakout with 1:5 RR
Description of the Price Action Trading Script (Pine Script v6)
Overview
This script is a pure price action-based breakout strategy designed for TradingView. It identifies key breakout levels and executes long and short trades based on market structure. The strategy ensures a minimum risk-to-reward ratio (RR) of 1:5, aiming for high profitability with well-defined stop-loss and take-profit levels.
How the Script Works
1️⃣ Breakout Identification
The script uses a lookback period to find the highest high and lowest low over the last n bars.
A bullish breakout occurs when the price closes above the previous highest high.
A bearish breakout happens when the price closes below the previous lowest low.
2️⃣ Entry & Exit Strategy
Long Entry: If a bullish breakout is detected, the script enters a long position.
Short Entry: If a bearish breakout is detected, the script enters a short position.
The stop-loss is placed at the recent swing low (for long trades) or recent swing high (for short trades).
The target price is calculated based on a risk-to-reward ratio of 1:5, ensuring profitable trades.
3️⃣ Risk Management
The stop-loss prevents excessive losses by exiting trades when the market moves unfavorably.
The strategy ensures that each trade has a reward potential at least 5 times the risk.
Positions are executed based on price action only, without indicators like moving averages or RSI.
4️⃣ Visual Representation
The script plots breakout levels to help traders visualize potential trade setups.
Entry points, stop-loss, and take-profit levels are labeled on the chart for easy tracking.
