5min MACD scalp by JoelThis strategy is inspired by a youtuber called Joel on Crypto. He trades this using Ema, MACD indicators and his own experience. For more information, check out his Best Crypto Scalping Strategy for the 5 Min Time Frame video. I have tried to automate this a little.
Long or Short trades are determined with a crossing of the fast Ema over the slow Ema for Long and the opposite for Short. Trades should only happen close to the crossovers. Then for Long we use the MACD indicator with a 1min TF (I had better results using the 5min) where we look for high peaks in negative values for Long and vice versa for Shorts. These should be significantly higher than other peaks (or if you will lower peaks for a Long).
Hence, the key is to detect high peaks on the histogram, which I try to achieve by checking if the last 2 values were higher than X bars back. If you want to make it even more specific, then you can turn on the additional checkbox which compares the current value to the average value of X bars back, and if it is greater than, say, 50% the value of the average (= 1.5x the average), then it's ok for the trade.
I also noticed that the strategy often bought at the top or bottom, so I added a check that compares whether the last evaluated bar is the first rising bar (for Long) or falling bar (for Short). This can be turned on or off.
Target profit 0,5% and stop loss 0,4% are based on his recommendation. The strategy is set to take only 1 trade at a time , and you can have a back tester table on.
I'm still a pine script beginner, so the strategy is certainly not perfect and could be improved. If you have any tips on how to improve it further, please let me know. I will try to update it when I have time.
I would also like to thank Joel on Crypto for sharing the strategy and @ZenAndTheArtOfTrading for his great library and code (thanks to him we have a back tester table in here), but especially his educational videos on youtube, which taught me a lot about pine script.

MacD Short and/or Long with Bi-Directional TP and SL This tool allows you to test any variable value for MacD and Signal for going Long or Short with each market direction having customizable values for stop loss and take profit.
For example, sometimes the MacD and Signal values are better with different lengths between Short and Long. You can use this tool to see them overlaid and determine the best settings for going one direction or the other.
This script was preset for use with XBTUSD on the 4 hour time frame. Another example with this in mind, is take profits and stop losses might not work in the Long market direction but going Short does! Without this tool that would be hard to see since typically stop loss and take profit is applied to both directions. I found with this tool that a 20% take profit seems to be a good sweet spot for going short with this strategy.
You can customize which MacD histogram you see by going to the style section and turning off the Short or Long parameters so you can see only 1 histogram at a time if you wish.
If you have any questions, please PM me.

[VJ]Phoenix Force of PSAR +MACD +RSIThis is a simple intraday strategy for working on Stocks or commodities based out on PSAR, MACD , RSI and chop index . You can modify the start time and end time based on your timezones. Session value should be from market start to the time you want to square-off
Important: The end time should be at least 2 minutes before the intraday square-off time set by your broker
Comment below if you get good returns
Strategy: Entry Exits using PSAR and momentum and trend using MACD and RSI. A chop index is used as filtering
Indicators used :
Parabolic SAR is a technical indicator that is used to determine the price direction of stocks and it also draws attention to the traders when the price is changing
PSAR helps you:
Identify when a certain price trend is going to change direction
Indicate the most effective level at which to enter into the trade
Indicate the most effective exit point for the trade
Moving average convergence divergence (MACD) is a trend-following momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages of a security's price. ... Traders may buy the security when the MACD crosses above its signal line and sell—or short—the security when the MACD crosses below the signal line
RSI is intended to chart the current and historical strength or weakness of a stock or market based on the closing prices of a recent trading period.
Buying/Selling
When trading with the parabolic SAR, you would buy a market when the dots move below the current asset price and are green in colour. Alternatively, you would sell a market when the dots move above the current asset price and are red in colour. We use MACD , RSI to ensure that a right trade is picked when PSAR gives an indication. CI is used to stay away from the range bound market as much as possible.
Usage & Best setting :
Choose a good volatile stock and a time frame - 5m.
MA length : 200
RSI threshold : 50
MACD: 12,26,9
There is stop loss and take profit that can be used to optimise your trade
The template also includes daily square off based on your time.
MACD, EMA, Know sure thing, Chopy Market - high adaptabilityHey there :)
This is the free version of the script. The following indicators / settings are missing:
- Support and resistance zones
- dynamic textboxes for alarms when using bots (3 Commas, Alertatron, etc.)
- a table showing the current position, indicators and other important information
With this script there is the possibility to completely customize the MACD . Starting with the MACD and signal line, the histogram and the color of the histogram.
Since the Pinecoders team has previously deleted the script, I will mention the fee settings in a bit more detail:
In this script a fee of 0.01% and a slipage of 15 was used. With each trade the total capital (100%) is used with a risk reward of 1 to 1.5.
The total capital, i.e. the risk, can be changed at any time under the "Settings" tab at "Equity".
I also added an EMA , the Know sure thing indicator and the Chopy Market indicator (by TradingRush) to the script to filter out bad trades.
The EMA:
Since the EMA is very reliable and shows whether there is an upward or downward trend, it should be used with the indicators in any case. It prevents long trades in downward movements and vice versa.
The KST Indicator:
The KST indicator has a similar movement as the MACD, but is by and large a bit more time delayed. It filters out false swings of the MACD and thus prevents bad trades.
The Chopy Market Indicator by Tradingrush:
The Chopy Market indicator, which was introduced by TradingRush in one of its videos, has the ability to detect sideways markets and block zones below this line for trades by means of a fixed value (the line).
To exit the trades, I added the following options:
ATR Exits. Exits based on past candles (lowest low, highest high).
Static exits based on set percentages.
In the next days I will create a tutorial for the script, just have a look on my profile.
If you have any questions about the script, let me know.

Chaikin Money Flow + MACD + ATRHere I present you on of Trade Pro's Trading Idea: Chaikin Money Flow + MACD + ATR.
This strategy is not as profitable as it can be seen in one of his videos. In the forex market, the strategy could reach a maximum of 35% profitability.
I have, as some of my followers have requested, created an overview of the current position, risk and leverage settings in the form of a table.
Furthermore, one can again swap between short and long positions.
It is now possible to select or deselect individual indicators.
I have chosen the ATR alone as a take profit stop loss, as in his strategy.
A position is only triggered as soon as all prerequisites have been fulfilled and a command is executed. This prevents false triggering by bots and repainting.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How does the strategy work?
ENTRY
Long
The MACD indicator must be above the zero line.
Then the K line must cross the D line.
Finally, when this happens, the Money Flow Index must be above the zero line.
Short
Contrary to the premise of long positions.
EXIT
ATR Exit
The value of ATR at the time of buying is multiplied by the value entered in "Profit factor ATR" and "Stop factor ATR". As soon as the price reaches this value, it is closed.
Important
The script must be optimized for each coin or currency pair.
I will publish a guide to the strategy shortly. There I will explain how the table works and how to set the strategy correctly.
The results of the strategy are without commissions and leverage.
If you have any questions or feedback, please let me know in the comments.
255 EMA Strategy//--- From 15 Trading Examples by Trader Alyx ---
// Seems like this strategy works better if we reverse the EMA filter logic.
// "Description: This basic scalping strategy allows you to enter the market based upon sentiment
// provided by the EMA, set at 255 periods. When price is trading below the 255 EMA, you would
// look to enter a LONG BUY positions, and when price is trading above the 255 EMA, you would
// look to enter a SELL SHORT position. The MACD lagging indicator will show you clear signals for
// when to do this. When the MACD lines cross in a bullish manner and price is below the 255
// EMA, buy. When the MACD lines cross in a bearish manner and price is above the 255 EMA,
// sell.
// NOTE: Make sure that price is trading away from the 255EMA before entering a LONG or SHORT
// position. As you can see in the chart below, the clearest signs for trade entry were presented
// when price was trading AWAY from the 255EMA"
MACD EMA - TradingRush StrategyHey there!
Today I present you a rather simple, but very profitable MACD strategy. Since I trade it with cryptocurrencies, the settings have been adjusted.
I discovered the strategy on a YouTube channel and tried to transfer it as a strategy into a script.
Tested with the crypto pair ETH/USDT in the 15 minute chart.
There is the possibility to switch between short and long positions.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How does the strategy work?
ENTRY
The MACD indicator must cross below the histogram. If it crosses when the price is below the EMA, only short positions are traded. Above the EMA - long.
EXIT
The Lowest Low (long) / highest high (short) serves as the stop loss. The TP is formed on the basis of a factor. (SL multiplied by factor 2.1 = TP).
The red lines are used to illustrate the SL. Above for short positions below for long positions.
The results of the strategy are without commissions and levers.
If you have any questions or feedback, please let me know in the comments.

I wish you good luck with the strategy!
All in One Strategy no RSI Label - For higher dollar cryptoThis is the All in One Strategy without the RSI suggestion label that will work well for any of the crypto currencies trading above $500 so the overlay shows up better. I am using ETH as an example on this.

Technicals Rating Strategy v420Ichimoku, HMA, RSI, Stoch, CCI, MACD, Technicals Rating Strategy is a trading Bot that looks at these chosen indicators and assigns a value to each, then calculates the result of adding each indicators result value to a overall rating, which is then compared to a user set level. Here seen on Bitcoin, it has the broker fee included in the testing result. If you choose to use it on Forex etc, perhaps remove the broker fee which is unrealistic for FX trading.
It has a Win/Loss ratio of only 40% wins, but it catches the big moves and thats the main thing, so if ELON MUSK had of used this strategy instead of BUY and HOLD, he could of made 700% instead of 7% (as is, may, 2021)
Mainly intended for use as Automated TRADE BOT.
(imagine if Elon Musk did use this bot with his 1.3 billion $ worth of BTC, the drawdown would be like, half a billion or something haha (p.s.- use smaller lotsize % to get smaller drawdown, but then smaller profit....) )
For use with any pair and timeframe. In fact there is a timeframe setting to set the strategy to look at alternative timeframe from chart, but as default will just be set to charts timeframe.
MACD Signal with RSI Indicating StrategyThis strategy looks for MACD signal crossover and RSI confirmation of oversold/overbought condition.
Tune to your crypto/stock for best results using the strategy and sent an alert. Currently set up to use 25% of equity at each buy signal and will sell 1/3 of position at each sell signal. Initial investment is $1000, but adjust as necessary.
Currently tuned to DOGEUSD on 30min chart.

Sentiment OscillatorPrice moves when there are more market takers than there are market makers at a certain price (i.e. price moves up when there are more market buys than limit sells and vice versa). The idea of this indicator is to show the ratio between market takers and market makers in a way that is intuitive to technical analysis methods, and hopefully revealing the overall sentiment of the market in doing so. You can use it in the same way you would other oscillators (histogram crossing zero, divergences, etc). The main difference between this and most volume-weighted indicators is that the price is divided by volume instead of multiplied by it, thus giving you a rough idea of how much "effort" it took to move the price. My hypothesis is that when more volume is needed to move the price, that means bulls and bears are not in agreement of what the "fair price" should be for an asset (e.g. if the candle closes only a bit higher than its open but there's a huge spike in volume, that tells you that a majority of the market are starting to think the price is too high and they've started selling).
Methods of Calculation
1. Price Change Per Volume
The main method this indicator uses to reveal market sentiment is by comparing price change to the volume of trades in a bar.
You will see this calculation plotted in its most basic form by ticking the "Show Bar per Bar Change/Volume" box in the inputs dialog. I personally found that the plots were too noisy and cannot be used in real time reliably due to the fact that there is not much volume at the open of a new bar. I decided to leave in the option to use this method, in case you'd like to experiment with it or get a better grasp of how the indicator works.
2. Exponential Moving Averages
In my quest to smooth out the plotted data, I experimented with exponential moving averages. Applying an EMA on the change per volume data did smooth it out a bit, but still left in a lot of noise. So I worked around it by applying the EMA to the price change first, and then dividing it by the EMA of the volume. The term I use for the result of this calculation is "Market Sentiment" (do let me know if you have a better-fitting term for it ;-)), and I have kept it as an option that you can use in the way you would use other oscillators like CMF, OBV, etc. This option is unticked by default.
3. MACD
I left "Market Sentiment" unchecked as the default option because I thought an easier way to use this indicator would be as a momentum indicator like the MACD . So that's what I turned it into! I applied another EMA on the Market Sentiment, added a slower EMA to subtract from the first, and now we have a MACD line. I added a signal line to subtract from the MACD , and the result is plotted as a histogram... ish . I used area instead of columns for plot style so you don't get confused when comparing with a regular MACD indicator, but you can always change it if an actual histogram is more your taste.
The "histogram" is the main gauge of sentiment change momentum and it is easiest to use, that is why it is the only calculation plotted by default.
Methods of Use
As I have mentioned before, you can use this as you would other oscillators.
-The easiest way to use this indicator is with the Momentum histogram, where crosses over 0 indicate increasing bullish sentiment, and crosses below 0 indicate increasing bearish sentiment. You may also spot occasional divergences with the histogram.
-For the Market Sentiment option, the easiest way to use it is to look for divergences.
-And if you use the "Price Change per Volume of Each Bar", well... I honestly don't know. I guess divergences would be apparent towards the close of a bar, but in realtime, I don't recommend you use this. Maybe if you'd like to study the market movement, looking at historical data and comparing price, volume , and Change per Volume of each bar would come in handy in a pseudo-tape-reading kind of way.
Anyway, that's my explanation of this indicator. The default values were tested on BTC/USDT (Binance) 4h with decent results. You'll have to adjust the parameters for different markets and timeframes.
I have published this as a strategy so you can test out how the indicator performs as you're tweaking the parameters.
I'm aware that the code might not be the cleanest as I have only started learning pine (and code in general) for about a month, so any suggestions to improve the script would be appreciated!
Good luck and happy trading :-)
All in One StrategyTrue improvement over my previous script. This script adds in all of the complementary indicators, makes it truly easy to adjust the inputs, and has produced a real world net gain using the TradingView bots paired with any broker's API that is supported.
It has a selection for which strategy you'd like to use and due to limitations in Pine I cannot program in logic to make sure you only pick one, so you need to make sure you are only picking one.
To tweak the Connors option - it only depends on the RSI length variable, everything else is hard coded and tweaked for Crypto.
To tweak the MACD - play around with the min and max values of the RSI for lookback and the amount of candles to lookback. Then tweak the fast and slow MA lengths. I have found that a fast length of 3 or 4 and a slow length between 6 and 10 will yield the highest gains.
Also, when I was a young Noob I thought using a chart timeframe of 5 minutes was the best...no...no it wasn't. I lost my ass. Don't lose yours. I highly suggest sticking with a 30 minute timeframe, you will minimize losses caused by false triggers, have less trades and higher profits. More is not always better, trades that may sell one day and then buy six days later are normal. Leave it do its magic and you'll be very happy in the end.
MACD, RSI, & RVOL Strategy
This strategy combines the use of MACD (12, 26, 9), RSI (14, 30, 70), and RVOL (14) to create Long Buy and Sell signals. This works well with many different time intervals but was developed with 15-minute intervals in mind.
Using MACD as a reference, the strategy identifies when the MACD line crosses over (a factor in a buy signal) and under (a factor in a Sell signal) the Signal line. This shows a shift in positive (cross over) and negative (cross under) of a security.
Using the Relative Strength Index ( RSI ) as an indicator, the strategy notices when the velocity and magnitude of the directional price movements cross over the Oversold signal (30) and crosses under the Overbought signal (70) as a factor in creating a Buy and Sell signal.
Using Relative Volume (RVOL) as an indicator, the strategy calculates when the current volume has crossed over the 2x average volume indicator over a given period and is then used as a factor in creating a Buy signal. RVOL is also used when the change in volume crosses under a set RVOL number (in this strategy, it is set to a RVOL of 5).
RVOL = Current Volume / Average Volume over a certain period
This strategy indicates a Buy signal when 2/3 conditions are met:
- RSI Cross Over the Over Sold signal (default 30)
- MACD Cross Over of Signal ( MACD > Signal)
- RVOL Cross Over of 2 (RVOL > 2)
This strategy indicates a Sell signal when 2/3 conditions are met:
- RSI Cross Under the Over Bought signal (default 70)
- MACD Cross Under of Signal ( MACD < Signal)
- RVOL Cross Under 5 (RVOL < 5)

Original script:
1. 3Commas Bollinger Strategy by tedwardd
2. Momentum Strategy ( BTC /USDT; 1h) - MACD (with source code) by Drun30
Bollinger Bands strategy with RSI and MACD v1.0 This is a strategy based on the Bollinger Bands, where buy trades are made when the price crosses the lower line of the Bollinger Bands upwards, and sell trades are made when the price crosses the upper line downwards.
In addition, it is possible through the inputs to enable trading with RSI and MACD, so that buy or sell trades are supported by these two indicators.
Trades are partially and fully closed in the following way, a buy trade will close half of the position when the price touches the middle line of the Bollinger bands and will be fully closed when the price touches the upper band. In the case of a sell position, half of the position will be closed if the price touches the middle band and the entire position will be closed when the price touches the lower band. Alternatively, a fixed take profit can be placed. In case the price moves against us, trailing stops can be placed.
In case of selecting to use RSI, MACD, or MACD variation, trades will be executed as long as The Bollinger Bands, and all the above-mentioned indicators give the same signals, either buy or sell.
For example in the case of selecting only Use RSI, buy trades would be made as long as RSI and BB give buy signals.
Strategy inputs:
-BB source: Bollinger Bands price source.
-Bollinger Bands SMA length: Bollinger Bands simple moving average length.
-Bollinger Bands StdDev length: Bollinger Bands standard deviation length.
-Trail Long Loss (%): Distance in percentage at which the stop loss will initially be placed for buy trades.
-Trail Short Loss (%): Distance in percentage at which the stop loss will be initially placed for sell trades.
-Maximum orders: Maximum of simultaneous operations, for example, if it is 3, up to 3 parallel operations of buy and up to 3 parallel operations of sell will be carried out.
-Position size: Number of contracts per trade.
-Use RSI: If selected, the strategy will also trade based on oversold or overbought signals provided by the RSI.
-RSI source: RSI price source.
-RSI period: The RSI period to use.
-RSI value for buy: If the RSI is below this value, it will give a buy signal.
-RSI value for sell: If the RSI value is above this value, it will give a sell signal.
-Use MACD: If selected, buy trades will be made when the MACD crosses 0 upwards, and sell trades will be made when the MACD crosses 0 downwards.
-Use MACD variation: Only available if MACD is previously selected. In this case, buy trades are made if the MACD value in the last 3 candles has been decreasing, and sell trades are made if the MACD value has been increasing.
-MACD source: MACD price source.
-MACD fast length: MACD fast EMA lenght.

MACD oscillator with EMA strategy 4H This is a simple, yet efficient strategy, which is made from a combination of an oscillator and a moving average.
Its setup for 4h candles with the current settings, however it can be adapted to other different timeframes.
It works nicely ,beating the buy and hold for both BTC and ETH over the last 3 years.
As well with some optimizations and modifications it can be adapted to futures market, indexes(NASDAQ,NIFTY etc), forex(GBPUSD), stocks and so on.
Components:
MACD
EMA
Time condition
Long/short option
For long/exit short we enter when we are above the ema, histogram is positive and current candle is higher than previous.
For short /exit long , when close below ema, histo negative and current candles smaller than previous
