[INVX] Trailing StopDescription:
The Adjustable Trailing Stop Indicator is a practical tool designed to enhance your trading strategy by allowing for automatic modifications of stop-loss orders according to your specified parameters. This indicator provides a dynamic alternative to the traditional static stop-loss orders, assisting in managing your potential profits and curbing possible losses.
Features and Functionality:
The Trailing Stop Indicator provides three main inputs for customization:
"Trailing Stop Start Date" : This input enables you to set the start date for the trailing stop. From this date forward, the indicator begins tracking price changes and adjusts the stop-loss order in response.
"Trigger Delta (%)" : This represents the percentage for the trailing stop. It denotes the set percentage at which the stop order adjusts.
"Order" : This input determines whether the trailing stop applies to a Buy or Sell order. Depending on the selection, the indicator adjusts the stop price as the price escalates (for Sell order) or declines (for Buy order).
How Does the Trailing Stop Indicator Work?
The Trailing Stop Indicator functions by dynamically adjusting the stop price in line with market fluctuations. If the market price rises (for Sell order), the stop price automatically ascends, securing potential profits. In a declining market (for Buy order), the stop price descends according to the market.
This indicator eliminates the need for constant manual adjustments, reducing the impact of emotional trading and helping traders maintain their risk management strategy. By using this tool, traders can implement a more disciplined and systematic approach to trading.

TrendFireOverview
They say "Trend is your Friend". In my short trading timeline, I've realized the difficult part is making this friendship to happen. Although, not impossible.
Trend Fire is one of the trend following strategy amongst many strategies out there. But the unique part of Trend Fire lies in the implementation and its accuracy to identify healthy Trends. Trend Fire is a purely Mathematical Indicator and aims for generating more successful trade signals. It has a unique strategy to avoid sideways market, false signals, and calculation to find entry for Trends, hence, more quality of trades.
I started my trading journey by observing the market movement for a long time as a beginner trader. Over time, I've realized that profit maximization can happen only if I can properly identify long trend. The reason why I was fascinated with trend following strategies and keen to solve the problems that trend following has.
Approach
In most typical trend following strategy setup, Trend identification starts by using fast and long period moving average crossovers. The fact that, moving averages are lagging in nature, it fails to identify good trends and produce many false signals. Although, it generates signals for trend also along with the false signals.
My aim was to reduce the false signals that occurs during consolidation and gain more accuracy on detecting healthy trends. The reason why I've obtained several approaches -
1. Moving Average Gap - during a consolidation period where lots of false signal generates in a crossover system, we can see that the distance/gap between the moving averages is very small, and in long trend the distance is large. So, a simple implementation was to limit the distance/gap by using a threshold to generate signals for trend outside the false signal threshold. This way, signals for long trend generates a few candles away but reduces false signal generation. For this Gap to work, a gap threshold of 20 works great to identify large trends and it is also a good entry point.
3. Volatility Adaptive moving average - As, this system is based on calculating distance/gap between MA's, the distance also doesn't always indicate proper momentum during a trend. The reason behind is that, 200 Moving average is also moving along the price during a trend and the distance/gap between moving averages vary according to the price. This also leads to generate false signals. So, it is more appropriate to replace 200 moving average with volatility adaptive moving average with a period of 1000, because adaptive moving average always reacts to the price and creates a larger distance/gap with price when there’s a trend in the market. Otherwise, it moves close with price in a sideways market. This nature of adaptability helps to reduce more false signals and gain more chances to take profitable trends.
This is also should be considered that no indicator system alone in trading is purely accurate. So, Trend Fire also is not an exception. There will be false signals, but the probability of getting false signal is less than the overall profits compared to any other moving average crossover system. The idea here is, maximizing your equity gradually over time rather than in a day and trade only when market is tradeable. Exactly how trading should be.
Usage
The usage of the indicator is simple. Once the indicator is applied in the mentioned currency pairs, it will show Buy/Sell signals along with Exit points in the chart.
The yellow line is the volatility adaptive moving average line which create distance during a trend and moves close to price when there is no trend. It is also used for trade exit indication, where the line meets with the price at the end of the trend and shows total pips gains/loss in a popup.
As, the indicator have built in adaptive and ATR base stop loss system, a good approach is to enable this in settings. So that, the loss will be minimum. The reason behind, by default the trades closed when a certain trend is over (When yellow line reaches close to the price after a gap) and this closing point not necessarily closes above/below signal. This is why Adaptive and ATR stop loss together make sure when trend reverses during a trend to take profit. Although, settings for Stop loss have been configured in the indicator, but if needed, settings can be changed for optimized results. It is also advisable to not to trade during a news alert as there are chances to generate false signal for high movement of the market.
Down-Sides
The indicator is dependent on the 1-minute time frame, larger time frames resulting in a signal overfitting condition. The indicator is set for only some selective currencies and commodities. So, its behavior might also change if the currency pair is out of scope. Below is the list of currencies which will work for now.
• EURUSD – FXCM
• GBPUSD – FXCM
• AUDUSD – OANDA
• USDCAD – OANDA
• GBPCAD – FXCM
• USDJPY – FXCM
• GBPJPY – OANDA
• EURJPY – OANDA
• CADJPY – FXCM
• AUDJPY – OANDA
• CHFJPY – OANDA
• EURAUD – FXCM
• GBPAUD – FXCM
• AUDCAD – OANDA
• EURGBP – FXCM
• EURCAD – OANDA
• XAUUSD – OANDA
• XAGUSD – OANDA
• USOIL – TVC
• BTCUSDT.P – BYBIT
More currency pair will be added in the future.
Settings
• Fast MA : Fast Moving Average
• Trend MA : Trend line Ema for determining Exit point
• Trend Threshold : Gap threshold between VAMA and Fast EMA
• VAMA : Volatility Adaptive Moving Average Length for calculation
• Enable Trend Coloring : Enable trend coloring on adaptive moving average line
• Enable Trailing Stop : Enable Adaptive and ATR trailing stop to exit trades
• Show Dashboard : Enable Trend and Signal value dashboard
• Position : Position of Dashboard in Chart
Alerts
Alert conditions are set for trade Entry and Exit scopes only and it does not mention Buy/Sell trade specifically in alerts for now. For that, you need to follow the chart after an alert as indicator shows Buy/Sell/Exit on chart. To create an alert based on the indicator follow these steps:
Go to the alert section (the alarm clock) -> create new alert -> select TrendFire in condition -> Below select TRADE ALERT and select date duration. In option select “once per bar close”, By default the message is set with ticker ID. Change the message if you want a personalized message.
Conclusion
As a programmer and problem solver, I have invested over a year to understand the market and tried to solve the problem that I faced as a trader. I wanted to develop an indicator that make sense and works logically in market. Also, the aim is to trade smartly with a strategy rather than biting in the bush randomly. Trade Fire is a result of countless failures and losses. I hope future contributions will grow this indicator to be more efficient down the line.
Thanks for reading…Happy Trading!
QTY@RISK VWAP based calculationVWAP Volatility-Based Risk Management Calculator for Intraday Trading
Overview
This script is an innovative tool designed to help traders manage risk effectively by calculating position sizes and stop-loss levels using the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) and its standard deviation (StdDev). Unlike traditional methods that rely on time-based calculations, this approach is time-independent within the intraday timeframe, making it particularly useful for traders seeking precision and efficiency.
Key Concepts
VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price): VWAP is a trading benchmark that represents the average price a security has traded at throughout the day, based on both volume and price. It provides insight into the average price level over a specific period, helping traders understand the market trend.
StdDev (Standard Deviation): In the context of VWAP, the standard deviation measures the volatility around the VWAP. It provides a quantifiable range that traders can use to set stop-loss levels, ensuring they are neither too tight nor too loose.
How the Script Works
1. VWAP Calculation: The script calculates the VWAP continuously as the market trades, integrating both price and volume data.
2. Volatility Measurement: It then computes the standard deviation of the VWAP, giving a measure of market volatility.
3. Stop-Loss Calculation: Using user-defined StdDev factors, the script calculates two stop-loss levels. These levels adjust dynamically based on market conditions, ensuring they remain relevant throughout the trading session.
4. Position Sizing: By incorporating your risk tolerance, the script determines the appropriate position size. This ensures that your maximum loss per trade does not exceed your predefined risk value.
How to Use the Calculator
1. Select Two VWAP StdDev Factors: Choose two standard deviation factors for calculating stop-loss levels. For example, you might choose 0.5 and 0.75 to set conservative and aggressive stop-losses respectively.
2. Set Your Trading Account Size: Enter your total trading capital. For example, $50,000.
3. Maximum Lot Size: Define the maximum number of shares you are willing to trade in a single position. For instance, 200 shares.
4. Risk Value per Trade: Input the maximum amount of money you are willing to risk on a single trade. For instance, $50.
5. Plotting Options: If you wish to visualize the stop-loss levels, enable the plot option and choose the price base for the plot, such as the closing price or the average of the high and low prices (hl2).
Example of Use
1. Initial Setup: After the market opens, wait for at least 15 minutes to ensure the VWAP has stabilized with sufficient volume data.
2. Parameter Configuration: Input your desired parameters into the calculator. For instance:
- VWAP StdDev Factors: 0.5 and 0.75
- Trading Account Size: $50,000
- Maximum Lot Size: 200 shares
- Risk Value per Trade: $50
- Plot Option: On, using "hl2" or "close" as the price base
3. Execution: Based on the inputs, the script calculates the position size and stop-loss levels. If the calculated stop-loss falls within the selected VWAP StdDev range, it will provide you with precise stop-loss prices.
4. Trading: Use the calculated position size and stop-loss levels to execute your trades confidently, knowing that your risk is managed effectively.
Advantages for Traders
- Time Independence: By relying on VWAP and its StdDev, the calculations are not dependent on specific time intervals, making them more adaptable to real-time trading conditions.
- Focus on Strategy: Novice traders can focus more on their trading strategies rather than getting bogged down with complex calculations.
- Dynamic Adjustments: The script adjusts stop-loss levels dynamically based on evolving market conditions, providing more accurate and relevant risk management.
- Flexibility: Traders can tailor the calculator to their risk preferences and trading style by adjusting the StdDev factors and risk parameters.
By incorporating these concepts and using this risk management calculator, traders can enhance their trading efficiency, improve their risk management, and ultimately make more informed trading decisions.
Position Sizing Tool - Fixed Loss - Multi Asset [RSC]
This script is an Multi Asset measurement tool that can be used to evaluate or keep track of trades. Like the long and short position drawing tools, it calculates a risk reward ratio and a risk-adjusted position size from multiple entries (4 maximum), stop and take profit multiple levels ( 4 maximum) , but it also does much more:
• It can be used to configure long or short trades.
• All monetary values can be expressed in any number of currencies.
• The value of tick/pip movement (which varies with the position's size) is displayed in the currency you have selected.
• It does live tracking of the position.
• You can configure alerts on entries and exits.
█ HOW TO USE IT
Load the indicator on an active chart.
When you first load this script on a chart, you are able specify following parameter
• Account Balance
• Account currency.
And for each asset (Max 8):
• Symbols Ticker (and Exchange)
• Risk per trade (% or Amount base on Account Currency)
• Account Size
• Entry Time
• Entry levels (Max. 4)
• Leverage (only works for crypto) (same leverage for all entries)
• Stop loss level.
• Take profit level (Max. 4)
• Exit level percentage (Max. 4)
Once you have entered (or modify) parameters, the script will draw trade zones and levels labels containing the trade metrics:
• determines if the trade is a long or short from the position of the take profit and stop loss levels in relation to the entry price. If the take profit level is above the entry price, the stop must be below and vice versa, otherwise an error occurs.
• You can change levels by entering new values in the script's settings.
Once you place the position tool on a chart, it will appear at the same levels on symbols that you selected in script setting and nothing showed up for other symbols.
If your scale is not set to "Scale price chart only", the position tool's levels will be taken into account when scaling the chart, which can cause the symbol's bars to be compressed. If your scale is set to "Scale price chart only", the position tool will still be there, but it will not impact the scale of the chart's bars, so you won't see it if it sits outside the symbol's price scale.
█ FEATURES
Display
The position tool displays the following information for entries:
• The price level with “ Stoploss/Entry/Target” sign before it.
• Open or Closed P&L: For an open trade, the "Open P&L" displays the difference in money value between the entry level and the chart's current price.
For a closed trade, the "Closed P&L" displays the realized P&L on the trade.
• Quantity: The trade size, which takes into account the risk tolerance you set in the script's settings.
• RR: The reward to risk ratio expresses the relationship of the distance between the entry and the take profit level vs the entry and the stop level.
Example: A $100 stop with a $100 target will have a ratio of 1:1, whereas a $200 target with the same stop will have a 2:1 ratio.
• Per tick/pip: Represents the money value of a tick or pip movement.
• Their distance from the entry in money value, percentage and ticks/pips.
• The projected end money value of the position if the level is reached. These values are calculated based on the trade size and the currency.
█ Currency adjustments
This indicator modifies the trade label's colors and values based on the final Profit and Loss (P&L), which considers the dynamic exchange rate between base and conversion currencies in its calculations when the conversion currency is a specified value other than the default. Depending on the cross rate between the base and account currencies, this process can yield a negative P&L on an otherwise successful simulated trade.
For instance, if your account is in currency XYZ, you might buy 10 Apple shares at $150 each, with the XYZ to USD exchange rate being 2:1. This purchase would cost you 3000 units of XYZ. Suppose that later on, the shares appreciate to $170 each, and you decide to sell. One might expect this trade to result in profit. However, if the exchange rate has now equalized to 1:1, the return on selling the shares, calculated in XYZ, would only be 1700 units, resulting in a loss of 1300 units XYZ.
The indicator will mark the P&L and the target labels in red in such cases, regardless of whether the market price reached the profit target, as the trade produced a net loss due to reduced funds after currency conversion. Conversely, an otherwise unsuccessful position can result in a net profit in the account currency due to conversion rate fluctuations. The final losses or gains appear in the label metrics, and the corresponding color coding reflects the trade's success or failure.
█ Settings
The settings in the "Trade sizing" section are used to calculate the position size and the monetary value of trades. Two types of risk can be chosen from the menu; a percentage based risk calculation, or a fixed money value. The risk is used to calculate the quantity of units to purchase to achieve that level of risk exposure. Example: An account size of $1000 and 10% risk will have a projected end amount of $900 if the stop loss is hit. The quantity is a product of this relationship; a projected number of units to allow for the equivalent of $100 of risk exposure over the change in price from the entry to the stop value.
You can control the appearance of the tool and the values it displays in the settings following these first two sections.
Precision Strike Entry [PSE]This tool, known as Precision Strike Entry (PSE) , automatically generates Fibonacci Retracement Levels on any chart. More specifically, it scans for continuation and reversal trades based on two inputs and provides exact entry, exit ( Stop Loss ), and Take Profit levels.
Precision Strike Entry can be used for both Crypto and Forex markets.
A crucial aspect is adjusting the " Trading Mode " length to identify the correct extreme points or Custom Pivot Period Lookback. Unlike manually drawn Fibonacci levels, which remain static, the tool adjusts its levels dynamically when the chart's time frame changes.
Trading Mode Options:
Custom – To set manually Pivot Period Lookback
Scalper - Recommended for 5-15 min timeframes
Normal - Recommended for 15 min-2h timeframes
Swing - Recommended for 2h-4h timeframes
Unique to this tool is that the user can filter specific conditions before the Fibonacci is drawn on the chart. Additionally, it provides exact entry, stop loss, and Take Profit levels.
The identification of possible Fibonacci Retracement happens using two trigger techniques:
1-2 Setup and Trendline Break identification.
--> Using the 1-2 Setup identification, the indicator attempts to identify the next wave for point 3 using Fibonacci retracement rules.
--> Using the TrendLine breakout filter, the indicator will try to identify a possible pullback entry, utilizing Fibonacci retracement.
The indicator has been designed for bot processes, meaning it will not identify a short trade until you are in a long position and vice versa. Every trade ends with a custom breakeven at TP5 or hitting Stop Loss. When a trade ends/closes, the indicator will automatically search for a new long/short opportunity.
Since every symbol (Pair/Coin) has different conformations and pivots, not all pivot period parameters are perfect for every pair and timeframe. This is why the indicator gives you the opportunity to find the best pivot period for every combination of pair/timeframe, thanks to the Tuning Dashboard .
For example, for APE/USDT.P, by adjusting the 1-2 Setup & TrendLine Pivot Period Lookback settings, you can find a good setting with 1-2 Setup pivots set to 14, and TrendLine Breakout set to 15. The indicator checks the past 1000 bars and historical trades to provide an overview of what happened during the past 1000 bars.
In this case, the total number of trades was 145, and only 35 trades (24% of total trades) hit the Stop Loss without hitting at least TP1. TP1 was hit 110 times (75.75% of trades), TP2 65 times, etc.
This summary table also provides an indication of which pivot period setting is best for a specific pair/time frame combination. It offers statistical insights on how Take Profits were hit, giving you more confidence in how much of your position you will sell for each Take Profit level.
Pivot period settings for 1-2 Setup & Trend Line Breakout identification can be modified in the indicator parameters when the Trading Mode is set to Custom. There is also an extra parameter for filtering Long/Short ( Buy and Sell ) signals based on trend, identified using two EMAs (Moving Averages) with periods of 74 and 144.
Within the settings, you can also set Stop Loss and Breakeven settings as you prefer.
Default settings are:
TP1 Breakeven Level to Entry (possible values: Entry - DCA Entry - StopLoss)
TP2 Breakeven Level to TP1 (possible values: Entry - TP1 - StopLoss)
Breakeven Trigger: Use Close/Open of candles
Stoploss Trigger: Use Close/Open of candles
The indicator settings also include some visual settings to adapt the indicator based on the template you are using for your trading view charts for the best experience.
Alert Settings:
Precision Strike Entry (PSE) is designed to integrate with third-party bot systems
You can set three different alert modes:
TradingView Alert : You will receive classic TradingView alerts with messages indicating the desired alert, like Open Long (BUY), StopLoss Hit, Breakeven, and TakeProfits trigger alerts. (You will receive only the selected alerts from the list.)
Bot Alert : You will receive alerts only for Create Trade or Close Trade with the string of your UUID (you have to fill them in related to your Bot indication) and remember to set the Webhook setting to ensure the alert triggers on your Bot. When you use Bot Alert, you have to set the indicator Signal Type related to your Bot settings. NB: If you have created a TradingView Bot for Long Position, you will have to choose Signal Type = Long in the indicator settings.
Free Text Trade Alert : Using this setting, you will receive alerts only for Open Trade Long or Short. All information about Stop Loss and Take Profits is integrated into the Free Text Template.

Micho 150 SMA indicatorAMEX:SPY NASDAQ:MSFT This Pine Script indicator is designed to assist traders by displaying a 150-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) and a stop loss level based on a user-defined percentage below the 150-day SMA. It also marks significant crossover events with labels and highlights potential trend changes using Golden Cross and Death Cross indicators.
Features:
150-Day Simple Moving Average (SMA):
The script calculates and plots the 150-day SMA of the closing prices. This is a common technical indicator used to determine the overall trend of a security. The 150-day SMA is plotted in gray on the chart.
Stop Loss Price:
Users can define a stop loss percentage through an input field. This percentage is used to calculate a stop loss price that is plotted 1% (or user-defined percentage) below the 150-day SMA. The stop loss line is plotted in red on the chart. This helps traders manage risk by indicating a price level where they might consider exiting a trade to prevent further losses.
Buy and Sell Signals:
The script identifies potential buy and sell signals based on crossovers of the closing price with the 150-day SMA:
Buy Signal: When the closing price crosses above the 150-day SMA.
Sell Signal: When the closing price crosses below the 150-day SMA.
Labels are plotted at the crossover points to indicate "start follow" for buy signals (in green) and "check stoploss" for sell signals (in red).
Golden Cross and Death Cross:
The script also identifies Golden Cross and Death Cross events:
Golden Cross: Occurs when the 50-day SMA crosses above the 200-day SMA. This is generally considered a bullish signal indicating a potential upward trend.
Death Cross: Occurs when the 50-day SMA crosses below the 200-day SMA. This is generally considered a bearish signal indicating a potential downward trend.
These crossover events are marked with labels on the chart: "Golden Cross" (in yellow) and "Death Cross" (in yellow)
Swing Suite (SMT/Divergences + Gann Swings)Hello Traders!
TRN Swing Suite (SMT/Divergences + Gann Swings) is an indicator which identifies, and highlights pivot points (swings) and prints a lot of information about the swings in the chart (e.g. length, duration, cumulative Delta, ...). Furthermore, it detects divergences in connection with any given indicator, even custom ones. In addition to this, you can choose the algorithm to compute the swings. The famous Gann-Swing algorithm and the extremely precise TRN Swing algorithm (called Standard) are available for selection, as well as two other variants. Compared to other swing or zig-zag indicators it works in real-time, does not need a look-a-head to find swings and is not repainting. Moreover, equal (double) highs and lows are detected and displayed. The TRN Swing Suite helps traders to visualize the pure price action and identify key turning points or trends. The indicator comes with the following features:
Precise real-time swing detection without repainting
Divergence detecting for any given (custom) indicator - with 11 different preset indicators
SMT (Smart Money Technique)/Divergence detecting in relation to other instruments
Swing Performance Statistics
Swing support and resistance levels
Swing trend for multiple swing sizes
Equal/double high and low detection
4 different swing computation styles
Displaying of swing labels, values and information
Customizable settings as well as look and feel
It's important to note that the TRN Swing Suite is a visual tool and does not provide specific buy or sell signals. It serves as a guide for traders to analyze market structure in depth and make well-informed trading decisions based on their trading strategy and additional technical analysis.
Divergence Detection for any given (Custom) Indicator
The divergence detector finds with unrivaled precision bullish and bearish as well as regular and hidden divergences. The main difference compared to other divergences indicators is that this indicator finds rigorously the extreme peaks of each swing, both in price and in the corresponding indicator. This precision is unmatched and therefore this is one of the best divergences detectors.
The build in divergence detector works with any given indicator, even custom ones. In addition, there are 11 built-in indicators. Most noticeable is the cumulative delta indicator, which works astonishingly well as a divergence indicator. Full list:
External Indicator (see next section for the setup)
Awesome Oscillator (AO)
Commodity Channel Index (CCI)
Cumulative Delta Volume (CDV)
Chaikin Money Flow (CMF)
Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD)
Money Flow Index (MFI)
Momentum
On Balance Volume (OBV)
Relative Strength Index (RSI)
Stochastic
Williams Percentage Range (W%R)
The divergences are colored with vivid lines and labels. Bullish divergences are distinguished with luminous blue lines, while bearish divergences are denoted by striking red lines. Upon detecting a divergence, the colored lines act as a visual indicator for traders, signaling an imminent possibility of a trend reversal. In response, traders can leverage this valuable insight to make informed decisions in their trading activities.
Choose Your Custom Divergence Indicator
Handpick your custom indicator, and the TRN Swing Suite will hunt for divergences on your preferred market and timeframe. Importantly, you must add the indicator to your chart. Afterwards, simply go to the “Divergence Detection” section in the TRN Swing Suite indicator settings and choose "External Indicator". If the custom indicator has one reference value, then choose this value in the “External Indicator (High)” field. If there are high and low values (e.g. candles), then you also must set the “External Indicator Low” field.
In the provided graphic, we've chosen the stochastic RSI as our example, and as you can see, the TRN Swing Suite instantly identifies and plots bullish and bearish divergences on your chart.
Smart Money Technique (SMT)/Divergence detecting in Relation to other Instruments
Smart Money Technique/Tool (SMT) means the divergence detection between two related instruments. The TRN Swing Suite finds divergence in relation to other instruments, e.g. NQ vs ES or BTCUSDT vs ETHUSDT. Just add another instrument to the chart. As representation style you can choose lines or candles/bars. Afterwards, simply go to the “Divergence Detection” section in the TRN Swing Suite indicator settings and choose "External Indicator". If the second instrument is represented as line, then choose this value in the “External Indicator (High)” field. If there are high and low values (e.g. candles/bars), then you also must set the “External Indicator Low” field.
The detection of SMTs can help traders to decide whether the trend continues, or a reversal is imminent. E.g. if the NQ makes a new higher high but the ES fails to do so and makes a new lower high, then the TRN Swing Suite shows a divergence. As a result, the probability is high that the trend will not continue, and the trader can make an informed decision about what to do next.
How to Set Parameters for Divergence Indicators
To begin, access the indicator settings and find the “Divergence Detection”. Look for the "Parameters" sections where you can fine-tune Parameters 1-3. The default settings are already optimized for the oscillators AO, RSI, CDV, W%R, MFI and Stochastic. For other divergence indicators, you might want to adjust the settings to your liking. The parameter order is the same as in the corresponding divergence indicator.
TRN Swing Suite Statistics
Unveil the untapped potential of advanced Swing Statistics! Gain invaluable insights into historical swings and turning points. Elevate your expertise by harnessing this treasure trove of data to supercharge signal reliability, while masterfully planning stop loss and take profit strategies with unrivaled accuracy. Within the TRN Swing Suite lie two powerful statistics, each offering distinct insights to empower your trading prowess.
Swing Statistic
The Swing Statistic comprises of two series, one for up swings (Up) and one for down swings (Down), with values given in points. The columns have the following meaning:
Up or down
# - total number of analyzed swings
Overall ∅ Length - average length of all swings in points
Overall ∅ Duration - average duration of swings in bars
∅ Length - average lengths for custom-defined swing counts
∅ Duration - average durations for custom-defined swing counts
The custom-defined swing count is used to determine the swing length/duration for the last x swings. Note, in the case of well-established assets like Microsoft or Nvidia, which have undergone one or more stock splits, the overall average in column three may deviate significantly from those in column five. That is why column 5 is useful.
Relation Statistic
The Relation Statistic highlights percentages representing the historical occurrence of specific high and low sequences. In the first column (in %), various types of highs and lows are listed as reference points.
For example, the first row corresponds to "HH followed by", where the second column (#) displays the total count of higher highs (HH) considered. The subsequent columns showcase the percentages of how often certain patterns follow the initial HH.
Fields marked in blue represent sequences that occurred in over 50% of cases. The darker the shade of blue in each field, the higher the percentage.
Use Swing Statistics to Validate Stop-Loss and Take-Profit Levels
No matter which signals you choose to trade, consulting Swing Statistics can significantly enhance the reliability of these signals.
For example, when looking for a long entry after a lower low (LL), you can examine the likelihood of a subsequent lower high (LH) or even a higher high (HH). Combining this valuable information with your predetermined Take Profit level allows you to better assess whether your target can be achieved successfully. Additionally, you can add the average up swing length to the lower low for an alternative Take Profit level. Similarly, you can verify the probability of the next low being a higher low (HL) or another lower low (LL) to determine the likelihood of your Stop Loss being triggered. Align the length of the last down swing with the average down swing length for an alternative Stop Loss.
Swing Support and Resistance Levels
Swing support and resistance levels are horizontal lines starting from a swing high or swing low and representing natural support and resistance levels. Price tends to respect this levels one way or another. In most cases, old swing highs and swing lows provide a lot of liquidity to the market. For example, for a swing high there are at least three different market players at work:
Traders put there stop loss above the swing high
Breakout traders go long above the swing high
Turtle soup (reverse) trader go short above the swing high
Swing Trend (Multiple Sizes)
The TRN Swing Suite can display either at the top or at the bottom the prevailing swing trends for the main trend seen in the chart and for two additional swing sizes. This is useful to see the swing trend for medium and bigger swings to get a clear picture of the market.
Getting an Edge with the TRN Swing Suite
The indicator clearly displays up trends, defined as a sequence of higher highs (HH) and higher lows (HL), with green labels and down trends, defined as a sequence of lower lows (LL) and lower highs (LH), with red labels. Equal highs/double tops (DT) and equal lows/ double bottoms (DB) are highlighted in gold.
In addition, the labels show a full stack of valuable information about the swings to maximize your accuracy.
Length
Length percentage in relation to the last swing length
Duration
Time
Volume
Cumulative Delta
In an uptrend the up swings should have higher volume und higher cumulative delta than the down swings. The duration and time for down swings in an uptrend should be shorter than for the up swings.
Use Cases for Swing Detection
Trend Identification
By connecting the swing highs and lows, traders can identify and analyze the prevailing trend in the market. An uptrend is characterized by higher swing highs and lows, while a downtrend is characterized by lower highs and lower lows. The indicator helps traders visually assess the strength and continuity of the trend.
Support And Resistance Levels
The swing highs and lows can act as support and resistance levels. Swing highs may act as resistance levels where selling pressure increases, while swing lows may act as support levels where buying pressure increases. Traders often pay attention to these levels as potential areas for trade entries, exits, or placing stop-loss orders.
Pattern Recognition
The swings identified by the indicator can help traders recognize chart patterns, such as equal high/lows, consolidations, wedges, triangles or more complex patterns like Gartley or Head and Shoulders. These patterns can provide insights into potential trend continuation or reversal.
Trade Entry and Exit
Traders may use TRN Swing to determine potential trade entry and exit points. For example, in an uptrend, traders may look for opportunities to enter long positions near swing lows or on pullbacks to support levels. Conversely, in a downtrend, traders may consider short positions near swing highs or on retracements to resistance levels.
Swing Styles
In addition to the standard swings, you have the flexibility to choose between various swing styles, including ticks, percent, or even the famous Gann swings.

Head and Shoulders PatternHello Traders!
The Head and Shoulders Pattern indicator utilizes a unique swing-based pattern recognition to pinpoint head and shoulders patterns in real-time with unparalleled precision.
The head and shoulders chart pattern is a technical analysis pattern used to identify potential trend reversals in financial markets. It consists of three swing highs (peaks), with the middle peak being the highest and the two outside swing highs being slightly lower. The middle peak is referred to as the "head" and the two outside peaks are referred to as the "shoulders."
The pattern typically forms after an uptrend and is in most cases a bearish signal. The neckline is a support level that connects the lows of the two shoulders. Once the price breaks below the neckline, the pattern is confirmed, and a new down trend starts. Conversely, an "inverse head and shoulders" pattern forms after a downtrend and is a bullish signal.

How to Trade with the TRN Head and Shoulders Indicator
Identify the Pattern
Add the Head and Shoulders Pattern Indicator to your chart and look for the pattern on the asset and timeframe of your choice. The pattern is detected in real-time. If the pattern develops further in the next bars, then the indicator updates the pattern accordingly until a breakout is confirmed or the pattern becomes invalid.
You can also use the built-in alerts to easily get notified when a pattern occurs. In the indicator settings in the "Alerts" section you can choose whether you want to get notified when a pattern is
1. in the making (Pattern active),
2. confirms an up breakout (B/O Up Confirmed)
3. confirms a down breakout (B/O Down Confirmed)
4. (Unconfirmed) in case a pattern breakout occurs, even if the pattern is not yet confirmed
This allows you to stay informed about potential breakout opportunities that are still awaiting confirmation.
Check Pattern Statistics
The pattern statistics make it easy for you to see how successful a pattern is on the asset and timeframe you are watching. You should always check the statistics before entering a trade. The chart displays the statistics in the upper right corner. These statistics are categorized into two sections: "long" for inverse head and shoulders patterns and "short" for head and shoulders patterns.
In the initial columns, labeled as "short" and "long", the identified breakouts are further divided based on whether the risk-reward ratio (R) is below a specified value (< x) or equal to/greater than the specified value (>= x). The following columns represent the count of the events:
1. Occ. (Occurrence) categorized according to the values of R from the first column
2. TP1, TP2, TP3 (Take Profit) - targets 1, 2 and 3
3. SL (Stop Loss)
4. T/O (Time Out) - neither stop loss or targets where hit in a certain amount of time
Breakout – Entry, Stop Loss and Targets
The indicator automatically displays the entry price line (EP) in grey at the point where the price breaks through the neckline, indicating a breakout. Once a breakout has been confirmed, place a buy order near the EP level for a long position, or a sell order for a short position. Set your stop-loss at the price level of the red stop-loss line (SL) and set your take-profits at the price level of the green take-profit-lines (TP1, TP2, TP3).
Risk Management
The Head and Shoulders Pattern Indicator comes with a built-in risk management feature. Just go to the settings and scroll down to the section "Risk Management". Here you can enter your Account Size and the percentage you want to Risk when you enter a position after a pattern breakout.
In the "Trade Management" section, you have the option to define the minimum accepted risk-reward ratio for confirmed rectangles. This means that breakouts of patterns failing to meet the minimum risk-reward ratio will not be considered as confirmed signals. If a breakout gets confirmed, the indicator automatically calculates the position size (Quantity). You can read the quantity from the gray entry point line (EP), which is located to the right of the risk-reward ratio (R). Note that your risk-reward ratio (R) is calculated based on TP1.
Customization and Settings
The indicator can scan for smaller and larger patterns at the same time. Adjust the Head and Shoulders Sizes in the indicator settings to align them with your preferences. A larger size results in larger patterns. Depending on the asset class, the market or the market phase, different sizes should be used for the Head and Shoulders pattern detection.
To detect more patterns, increase the tolerance level, even though it may result in lower accuracy. However, be mindful that a higher tolerance level may result in more patterns hitting their stop-loss. Look for a tolerance level that leads to favorable statistics and focus on trading patterns with a proven performance history.
Finally, you have the flexibility to customize various visual elements, such as the color of the pattern and whether to display values like price, target, or risk-reward ratio on your chart. You can also choose where these values appear.
Computation Details
The real-time detection of the Head and Shoulders Pattern Indicator utilizes a unique swing-based pattern recognition. The difference to other swing-based computations is that the pivot points are identified without a look-ahead value. The result is a faster and better real-time detection. Furthermore, the detection of the ratios between the single swings is based on a dynamic volatility measurement similar to the ATR. The tolerance level unites several internal parameters into one and results in a user-friendly setting.

Breakout Conditions
Identifying breakout conditions is paramount for successfully recognizing and capitalizing on chart patterns. Trading tools equipped with diverse breakout conditions offer traders a comprehensive approach to deciphering market trends and making informed decisions.
This section delves into the set of breakout conditions built within TRN Harmonics, exploring their functionalities, applications, and the benefits they provide in the realm of chart pattern recognition.
TRN Bars Signal + Trend
The Harmonics Pattern Suite includes also the TRN Bars algorithm. It is designed to spot bullish and bearish trends and reversals. The trend analysis is based on a new algorithm that weights several different inputs:
1. classical and advanced bar patterns and their statistical frequency
2. probability distributions of price expansions after certain bar patterns
3. bar information such as wick length in %, overlapping of the previous bar in % and many more
4. historical trend and consolidation analysis
If you use this breakout condition, the breakout is determined by the next signal (reversal, continuation, breakout) or trend change of the TRN bars after one of the harmonic patterns has been completed. These Breakout conditions give you the accurate trend recognition of the TRN Bars to find the perfect entry.
TRN Bars Signal
If a harmonic pattern gets completed and you use this breakout condition, the breakout will be determined by the next confirmed signal (reversal, continuation, breakout) of the TRN Bars. These Breakout Condition delivers signals with reenforced reliability, but they occur not as often as other breakout conditions.
RSI Crossing
With this breakout condition, a breakout for a long position gets determined, when the RSI line crosses above the RSI moving average (MA) after one of the harmonic patterns has been completed. A bearish breakout after a completed harmonic pattern gets determined, when the RSI line crosses below the RSI MA.
You can choose your preferred RSI and MA length in the indicator settings under the “Trade Management” section.
MACD Crossing
If a harmonic pattern gets completed and you use this breakout condition, the breakout gets determined, when the MACD line crosses above the signal line (bullish MACD crossover) for a bullish breakout. Conversely, when the MACD line crosses below the signal line (bearish MACD crossover), a bearish breakout gets determined after a harmonic pattern was completed.
You can choose your preferred MACD length in the indicator settings under the “Trade Management” section.
Swing Flip
Use this breakout condition, if you want a breakout to get determined when the next swing after point D gets detected by the build in swing detection algorithm of TRN Harmonics.
Close Below/Above Last 2 Lows/Highs
With this breakout condition, a breakout for a short position gets determined, if a close below the lows of the last 2 bars gets detected. For a long position, the breakout gets determined if a close above the highs of the last 2 bars gets detected.
Close Below/Above Last 3 Lows/Highs
In this scenario, a short position breakout is confirmed if the price closes below the lows of the previous 3 bars. Conversely, a long position breakout is confirmed if the price closes above the highs of the last 3 bars.
How To Setup Breakout Conditions
Go to indicator settings and choose one of our built-in breakout conditions under the section "Trade Management" of the menu item "Inputs", like for example TRN Bars Signal + Trend. A selection of 7 distinct breakout conditions is at your disposal.
If you use the default settings of the Harmonic Patterns Suite, TRN Bars Signal + Trend will be the breakout condition for the detected harmonic patterns.
Computation Details
The real-time detection of the harmonic patterns utilizes a unique swing-based pattern recognition. The difference to other swing-based computations is that the pivot points are identified without a look-ahead value. The result is a faster and better real-time detection. Furthermore, the detection of the ratios between the single swings is based on a dynamic volatility measurement similar to the ATR. The tolerance level unites several internal parameters into one and results in a user-friendly setting.

The TRN Consolidation and Range Pattern indicator utilizes a unique swing-based pattern recognition to pinpoint consolidation zones in real-time with unparalleled precision. The rectangle pattern, also known as a trading range or a consolidation pattern, is characterized by horizontal lines that act as support and resistance levels, creating a rectangular shape.
The value of this indicator is to support traders to easily identify consolidations and ranges. The special swing-based pattern recognition and the numerous built-in premium features make this indicator unique. Below, you'll find a list of these features.
Feature List
Real-time consolidation/range detection
Visualization of entry, stop-loss and take-profit levels
Pattern performance statistics
Calculation of risk rewards ratio
Risk Management

Customizable pattern size and accuracy
Customizable look and feel
The trader saves a lot of time scanning the markets for consolidation patterns, since everything is done automatically for the trader: Finding the consolidation, looking and alerting for a breakout, computing the entry, stop loss and take profit levels as well as handling the risk management and computing the optimal order quantity. Now, we describe how a combination of these features enhances the trading performance of confirmed consolidation patterns.
How to Trade with the TRN Consolidation and Range Pattern
Identify the Pattern
Add the TRN Consolidation and Range Pattern to your chart and look for the pattern on the asset and timeframe of your choice. The pattern is detected in real-time. If the pattern develops further in the next bars, then the indicator updates the consolidation zone until a breakout is confirmed.
You can also use the built-in alerts to easily get notified when a pattern occurs. In the indicator settings in the "Alerts" section you can choose whether you want to get notified when a pattern is in the making (Pattern active), confirms a breakout to the upside (B/O Up Confirmed) or confirms a breakout to the downside (B/O Down Confirmed). By selecting the "Unconfirmed" option, you will receive notifications when a pattern breakout occurs, even if it is not yet confirmed. This allows you to stay informed about potential breakout opportunities that are still awaiting confirmation.
Check Pattern Statistics
The pattern statistics make it easy for you to see how successful a pattern is on the asset and timeframe you are watching. You should always check them out before entering a trade. The chart displays the statistics in the upper right corner. These statistics are categorized into two sections: "long" for patterns with an upward breakout and "short" for patterns with a downward breakout.
In the initial columns, labeled as "short" and "long", the identified breakouts are further divided based on whether the risk-reward ratio (R) is below a specified value (< x) or equal to/greater than the specified value (>= x). The following columns represent the count of the events:
1. Occ. (Occurrence) categorized according to the values of R from the first column
2. TP1, TP2, TP3 (Take Profit) - targets 1, 2 and 3
3. SL (Stop Loss)
4. T/O (Time Out) - neither stop loss or targets where hit in a certain amount of time
Breakout – Entry, Stop Loss and Targets
The indicator automatically displays the entry price line (EP) in grey et the point where the price breaks through the resistance or support levels, indicating that the consolidation period is over. Once a breakout has been confirmed, place a buy order near the EP level for a long position, or a sell order for a short position. Set your stop-loss at the price level of the red stop-loss line (SL) and set your take-profits at the price level of the green take-profit-lines (TP1, TP2, TP3). Note that your risk-reward ratio (R) was calculated based on TP1.
Risk Management
The TRN Consolidation and Range Pattern comes with a built-in risk management feature. Just go to the settings and scroll down to the section "Risk Management".
Here you can enter your Account Size and the percentage you want to Risk when you enter a position after a pattern breakout.
In the "Trade Management" section, you have the option to define the minimum accepted risk-reward ratio for confirmed rectangles. This means that breakouts of patterns failing to meet the minimum risk-reward ratio will not be considered as confirmed signals.
If a breakout gets confirmed, the indicator automatically calculates the position size (Quantity). You can read the quantity from the gray entry point line (EP), which is located to the right of the risk-reward ratio (R).
Customization and Settings
The indicator can scan for smaller and larger patterns at the same time. Adjust the consolidation sizes in the indicator settings to align them with your preferences. A larger size results in larger consolidations. Depending on the asset class, the market or the market phase, different sizes can be used for the consolidation detection.
To detect more patterns, increase the tolerance level, even though it may result in lower accuracy. However, be mindful that a higher tolerance level may result in more patterns hitting their stop-loss. Look for a tolerance level that leads to favorable statistics and focus on trading patterns with a proven performance history.
Finally, you have the flexibility to customize various visual elements, such as the color of the pattern and whether to display values like price, target, or risk-reward ratio on your chart. You can also choose where these values appear.
Computation Details
The real-time detection of the consolidations and ranges utilizes a unique swing-based pattern recognition. The difference to other swing-based computations is that the pivot points are identified without a look-ahead value. The result is a faster and better real-time detection. Furthermore, the detection of equal lows or highs which form a support or resistance level is based on a dynamic volatility measurement similar to the ATR. The tolerance level unites several internal parameters into one and results in a user-friendly setting.

Trailing Management (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Trailing Management (Zeiierman) indicator is designed for traders who seek an automated and dynamic approach to managing trailing stops. It helps traders make systematic decisions regarding when to enter and exit trades based on the calculated risk-reward ratio. By providing a clear visual representation of trailing stop levels and risk-reward metrics, the indicator is an essential tool for both novice and experienced traders aiming to enhance their trading discipline.
The Trailing Management (Zeiierman) indicator integrates a Break-Even Curve feature to enhance its utility in trailing stop management and risk-reward optimization. The Break-Even Curve illuminates the precise point at which a trade neither gains nor loses value, offering clarity on the risk-reward landscape. Furthermore, this precise point is calculated based on the required win rate and the risk/reward ratio. This calculation aids traders in understanding the type of strategy they need to employ at any given time to be profitable. In other words, traders can, at any given point, assess the kind of strategy they need to utilize to make money, depending on the price's position within the risk/reward box.
█ How It Works
The indicator operates by computing the highest high and the lowest low over a user-defined period and then applying this information to determine optimal trailing stop levels for both long and short positions.
Directional Bias:
It establishes the direction of the market trend by comparing the index of the highest high and the lowest low within the lookback period.
Bullish
Bearish
Trailing Stop Adjustment:
The trailing stops are adjusted using one of three methods: an automatic calculation based on the median of recent peak differences, pivot points, or a fixed percentage defined by the user.
The Break-Even Curve:
The Break-Even Curve, along with the risk/reward ratio, is determined through the trailing method. This approach utilizes the current closing price as a hypothetical entry point for trades. All calculations, including those for the curve, are based on this current closing price, ensuring real-time accuracy and relevance. As market conditions fluctuate, the curve dynamically adjusts, offering traders a visual benchmark that signifies the break-even point. This real-time adjustment provides traders with an invaluable tool, allowing them to visually track how shifts in the market could impact the point at which their trades neither gain nor lose value.
Example:
Let's say the price is at the midpoint of the risk/reward box; this means that the risk/reward ratio should be 1:1, and the minimum win rate is 50% to break even.
In this example, we can see that the price is near the stop-loss level. If you are about to take a trade in this area and would respect your stop, you only need to have a minimum win rate of 11% to earn money, given the risk/reward ratio, assuming that you hold the trade to the target.
In other words, traders can, at any given point, assess the kind of strategy they need to employ to make money based on the price's position within the risk/reward box.
█ How to Use
Market Bias:
When using the Auto Bias feature, the indicator calculates the underlying market bias and displays it as either bullish or bearish. This helps traders align their trades with the underlying market trend.
Risk Management:
By observing the plotted trailing stops and the risk-reward ratios, traders can make strategic decisions to enter or exit positions, effectively managing the risk.
Strategy selection:
The Break-Even Curve is a powerful tool for managing risk, allowing traders to visualize the relationship between their trailing stops and the market's price movements. By understanding where the break-even point lies, traders can adjust their strategies to either lock in profits or cut losses.
Based on the plotted risk/reward box and the location of the price within this box, traders can easily see the win rate required by their strategy to make money in the long run, given the risk/reward ratio.
Consider this example: The market is bullish, as indicated by the bias, and the indicator suggests looking into long trades. The price is near the top of the risk/reward box, which means entering the market right now carries a huge risk, and the potential reward is very low. To take this trade, traders must have a strategy with a win rate of at least 90%.
█ Settings
Trailing Method:
Auto: The indicator calculates the trailing stop dynamically based on market conditions.
Pivot: The trailing stop is adjusted to the highest high (long positions) or lowest low (short positions) identified within a specified lookback period. This method uses the pivotal points of the market to set the trailing stop.
Percentage: The trailing stop is set at a fixed percentage away from the peak high or low.
Trailing Size (prd):
This setting defines the lookback period for the highest high and lowest low, which affects the sensitivity of the trailing stop to price movements.
Percentage Step (perc):
If the 'Percentage' method is selected, this setting determines the fixed percentage for the trailing stop distance.
Set Bias (bias):
Allows users to set a market bias which can be Bullish, Bearish, or Auto, affecting how the trailing stop is adjusted in relation to the market trend.

Xen's Flag Pattern Scalper1. Input Parameters:
FlagLength: Determines the length of the flag pattern.
TakeProfit1Ratio, takeProfit2Ratio, takeProfit3Ratio: Define the ratios for calculating
the take-profit levels relative to the entry price.
RiskRewardRatio: Specifies the risk-reward ratio for calculating the stop-loss level
relative to the entry price.
2 Flag Conditions:
BullishFlag: Checks if the current bar meets the conditions for a bullish flag pattern. It
evaluates to true if the low of the current bar is lower than the low flagLength bars
ago, and the close of the current bar is higher than the high flagLength bars ago.
BearishFlag: Checks if the current bar meets the conditions for a bearish flag pattern. It evaluates to true if the high of the current bar is higher than the high flagLength bars
ago, and the close of the current bar is lower than the low flagLength bars ago.
3. Entry Price:
EntryPrice: Calculates the entry price based on whether a bullish or bearish flag
pattern is identified. For a bullish flag, the entry price is set to the low of the current bar.
For a bearish flag, the entry price is set to the high of the current bar.
4. Stop Loss:
StopLoss: Determines the stop-loss level based on the entry price and the specified
riskRewardRatio . For a bullish flag, the stop-loss level is calculated by subtracting the
difference between the high and low of the current bar multiplied by the riskRewardRatio from the low of the current bar. For a bearish flag, the stop-loss level
is calculated similarly but added to the high of the current bar.
5. Take Profit Levels:
Three take-profit levels ( takeProfit1, takeProfit2, takeProfit3 ) are calculated based on
the entry price, stop-loss level, and specified take-profit ratios ( takeProfit1Ratio,
takeProfit2Ratio, takeProfit3Ratio ).
6. Plotting Signals and Levels:
Bullish and bearish flag patterns are plotted using triangle shapes ( shape.triangleup for
bullish and shape.triangledown for bearish) above or below the bars, respectively.
Entry, stop-loss, and take-profit levels are plotted using horizontal lines ( line.new )
with different colors and styles. Entry and stop-loss levels are labeled with "Entry" and "SL",
respectively, while take-profit levels are labeled with "TP 1", "TP 2", and "TP 3".
The colors for bullish flags are white for entry, red for stop-loss, and green for take-profit levels. For bearish flags, the colors are the same, but the labels are plotted above the bars.
7. Label Placement:
Labels for entry, stop-loss, and take-profit levels are placed a distance of 4 bars to the right
of the entry price using bar_index + 4 .
This indicator is intended to help traders identify flag patterns on price charts and visualize potential entry, stop-loss, and take-profit levels associated with these patterns.
Please use risk management and when TP1 is hit, move stoploss to breakeven .
Backtest any Indicator v5Happy Trade,
here you get the opportunity to backtest any of your indicators like a strategy without converting them into a strategy. You can choose to go long or go short and detailed time filters. Further more you can set the take profit and stop loss, initial capital, quantity per trade and set the exchange fees. You get an overall result table and even a detailed, scroll-able table with all trades. In the Image 1 you see the provided info tables about all Trades and the Result Summary. Further more every trade is marked by a background color, Labels and Levels. An opening Label with the trade direction and trade number. A closing Label again with the trade number, the trades profit in % and the total amount of $ after all past trades. A green line for the take profit level and a red line for the stop loss.
Image 1
Example
For this description we choose the Stochastic RSI indicator from TradingView as it is. In Image 2 is shown the performance of it with decent settings.
Timeframe=45, BTCUSD, 2023-08-01 - 2023-10-20
Stoch RSI: k=30, d=40, RSI-length=140, stoch-length=140
Backtest any Indicator: input signal=Stoch RSI, goLong, take profit=9.1%, stop loss=2.5%, start capital=1000$, qty=5%, fee=0.1%, no Session Filter
Image 2
Usage
1) You need to know the name of the boolean (or integer) variable of your indicator which hold the buy condition. Lets say that this boolean variable is called BUY. If this BUY variable is not plotted on the chart you simply add the following code line at the end of your pine script.
For boolean (true/false) BUY variables use this:
plot(BUY ? 1:0,'Your buy condition hold in that variable BUY',display = display.data_window)
And in case your script's BUY variable is an integer or float then use instate the following code line:
plot(BUY ,'Your buy condition hold in that variable BUY',display = display.data_window)
2) Probably the name of this BUY variable in your indicator is not BUY. Simply replace in the code line above the BUY with the name of your script's trade condition variable.
3) Save your changed Indicator script.
4) Then add this 'Backtest any Indicator' script to the chart ...
5) and go to the settings of it. Choose under "Settings -> Buy Signal" your Indicator. So in the example above choose .
The form is usually: ' : BUY'. Then you see something like Image 2
6) Decide which trade direction the BUY signal should trigger. A go Long or a go Short by set the hook or not.
Now you have a backtest of your Indicator without converting it into a strategy. You may change the setting of your Indicator to the best results and setup the following strategy settings like Time- and Session Filter, Stop Loss, Take Profit etc. More of it below in the section Settings Menu.
Appereance
In the Image 2 you see on the right side the List of Trades . To scroll down you go into the settings again and decrease the scroll value. So you can see all trades that have happened before. In case there is an open trade you will find it at the last position of the list.
Every Long trade is green back grounded while Short trades are red.
Every trade begins with a label that show goLong or goShort and its number. And ends with another label again with its number, Profit in % and the resulting total amount of cash.
If activated you further see the Take Profit as a green line and the Stop Loss as a orange line. In the settings you can set their percentage above or below the entry price.
You also see the Result Summary below. Here you find the usual stats of a strategy of all closed trades. The profit after total amount of fees , amount of trades, Profit Factor and the total amount of fees .
Settings Menu
In the settings menu you will find the following high-lighted sections. Most of the settings have a question mark on their right side. Move over it with the cursor to read specific explanation.
Input Signal of your Indicator: Under Buy you set the trade signal of your Indicator. And under Target you set the value when a trade should happen.

AB=CD [Real-Time] (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The AB=CD (Zeiierman) indicator is designed to automatically detect the ABCD pattern across any chart and timeframe as it unfolds. Activating when point C forms, it automatically draws the D line, giving traders immediate entry, stop-loss, and target signals.
The primary use of the ABCD pattern is to provide a structure to forecast where prices are likely to move next. It's grounded in the principle that history tends to repeat itself, and patterns in price movements are reflective of market psychology.
A simple yet powerful tool in the trader's toolkit, providing clear signals for entry, stop-loss, and profit-target levels, which are based on symmetrical price movements and Fibonacci mathematics. It is applicable in various markets including forex, stocks, and commodities.
█ How to Use
The ABCD pattern is one of the foundational chart patterns used in technical analysis. It's essentially a price structure where two price legs are equivalent in length. In other words, the distance price travels from A to B roughly equals the distance from C to D.
Trend Continuation: Suggests that after a pullback, the original market trend is likely to resume towards point D.
Entry Point: Typically at point C to capitalize on the movement towards D.
Profit Target: Set at point D, expected to mirror the length of the A to B leg.
Stop Loss: Placed just beyond point C to protect against pattern failure.
█ How It Works
The pattern is made up of three consecutive price swings:
AB: This is the first price leg. It can either be up or down.
BC: This is a corrective or retracement leg. If AB is up, BC will be down, and vice versa.
CD: This is the final price leg. It moves in the same direction as AB and is approximately equal in length.
The ABCD pattern algorithm identifies pivot points over a user-defined period, labeled as A, B, C, and D. These points are determined by finding the highest and lowest values (extremes) within the specified period. The direction of the pattern is then established based on the position of these extremes. Fibonacci retracement levels are calculated between these points to determine potential reversal zones (entry and stop levels) and extension levels (target zones). When the price crosses into these zones, the ABCD pattern becomes active, signaling potential trading opportunities.
█ Settings
Market Move: This setting allows traders to define the size of the market move they're interested in, ranging from small to traditional, to swing, or even a custom length. This adjusts the sensitivity and the period over which the ABCD pattern is detected.
Bias: Traders can set their bias to bullish, bearish, or both, which filters the patterns based on the anticipated market direction.
Entry Retracement: Defines the Fibonacci retracement level for potential entry points.
Stop Retracement: Sets the Fibonacci retracement level for stop loss placement.
Exit Retracement: Determines the Fibonacci extension level for the profit target.
Show Stoploss & Target: Toggles the display of stop loss and target lines on the chart.
Color Settings: Customize the colors for bullish and bearish patterns to improve visual distinction.

NITS - NIFTY INTRADAY TRADING SYSTEMNSE:NIFTY
Hello Traders..!
This is another indicator / system to make use for NIFTY & BANK NIFTY Intra day trading.
This is my Gift to the traders for this New Year 2024. Use this to your Edge and make some profits. All explained below.
NIFTY INTRA-DAY TRADING SYSTEM
Explanation of Arrays:
-------------------------------
## FIRST 15 MIN SESSION BOX ##
From 09:15 to 09:30 where the initial orders will get collected and Auction takes place.
DO NOT engage into any trade in this session. Let the Box develop.
## INITIAL HIGH / LOW FORMATION SESSION ##
This session is from 09:15 to 10:30.
We can observe the Initial High or Low being formed for the day, that is VALID TILL 11:30.
## NO-TRADE ZONE / ACC. AREA / DAY’S H OR L CONFIRMATION SESSION ##
From 11:30 to 12:30
90% of time this is the session where the whole Day’s High or Low will get confirmed. Sometimes the market may violate this Session!
DO NOT engage into any fresh trade in this area.
Once the box is developed, you can see the Mid price line will be formed which is valid for the afternoon Trading session till 15:30.
## SIGNAL LINE, MIDDLE PRICE LINE, SESSION HIGH LOW LINES ##
Middle Price Line – the dotted line (Red colour) is Mid Price Line for the Initial session box. This acts as an important price level for the whole day.
Signal Line – the Solid line that will form after 10:30. Consider this price line as very important price line to which the price reacts with a good momentum, either break through or rejection and valid for the whole trading day.
Session High Low price line – high and low prices of the Initial session box which acts as a good Support / Resistance / Target / Stop loss. Even previous session’s price lines can also be used for the current day too.
## TREND BOX ##
Multi-Time frame trend box will show the real-time trend on different time frames. This box will be very helpful in trade decision. Please note that at least THREE HIGHER TIME FRAME TRENDS must be in the same direction to support your trade criteria for the better confirmation.
## VOLUME IMBALANCE ##
These orange coloured boxes are very tiny imbalances between prices that were formed during price movements. Algorithm will try to fill these imbalances on its way of filling orders. These price imbalances can be used for our edge while taking trades.
SOME TIPS:
---------------------------
1) Avoid Break out trades
2) Always trade the pull backs
3) Keep your Stops above / below the KEY LEVELS
4) Always follow the Higher Time frame trend while taking a trade.
If you trade in 1m TF consider 5m trend
If you trade in 5m TF consider 1H or 15m trend
5) Consider the higher TF closure of prices only, to validate the break out.
6) Trade what you see, market can do anything it wants.
7) Do not worry about losses. It happens and that is the business.
8) End your trading week in green no matter how big or small the profit is. Consistency is the key this business.
9) Keep in mind that the Market does two things only, either it will FILL THE GAP or GRAB THE LIQUIDITY. Just plan your trades accordingly. Liquidity levels like Previous Session / Day / Week / highs and lows.
10) The Market is a continuous business. It does not end for the specific day. It will not end its Buy or Sell model unless it completes its cycle, hence TRADE WHAT YOU SEE and not WHAT YOU THINK!
11) Unless the key swing high / low is broken and closed, DO NOT consider that move as a reversal. Consider that as a Liquidity grab. And it will continue in its previous trend.
HOW TO TAKE TRADE USING NITS: (one of the Techniques)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As explained above, Do not engage in trade for the first 15 minutes.
Once the 15m box forms then look for divergence between NIFTY and BANK NIFTY.
Both Indices are supposed to trade in the same direction but at key levels and times, these instruments will make DIVERGENCE with its Highs and Lows.
Ex: one Index will make LOW AND LOWER LOW and at the same time other will make LOW AND HIGHER LOW. This deflection can be used for taking Buy Trades.
Ex:
If the Divergence forms at the Bottom then the market will move upwards.
If the Divergence forms at the Top then the market makes down move.
To confirm this divergence, the price will move away from that deflected Lows or Highs.
-----------------------------------
POINTS TO OBSERVE
------------------------------------
Mostly the first 15 min range that forms will either be very large candles or normal candles with rejection wicks or Shaved bar (open and H/L same)
Whenever you observe a very large wide range bars within the 15min range, consider the Day’s high and Low is already formed. And the market will be hovering inside that range only. Very useful for taking 50 points scalping here and there by using the signal line and middle line or Acc box mid line. In this scenario you have three important info of the day, OPEN HIGH & LOW established already, The market will only look for its close.
Ex:
If the market trades with normal candles, then consider your trades in two parts.
From 09:30 to 11:30 and from 12:30 to 15:30 as 11:30 to 12:30 will confirm the current day’s High / Low hence do not take a fresh position within that time.
1) Initial session trade – If the price does not break and close the 15 min range high/low, consider it is going to reverse and continue its trend till 10:30
Ex:
2) Mid session Trade – mostly the market accumulates positions and collects orders between 11:30 to 12:30 for the afternoon session. Once the session box is developed, the middle price line will form. Wait for the market breakout and close off this session’s high or low in Higher TF. The market will continue in the direction of breakout from this session and continue till 15:30. Hence wait for pull back till its mid price / high or low price lines of this Acc box and take trade in the initial breakout direction keeping stop above or below the session’s high or low.
Ex:

Contrarian Donchian Channel Indicator with Alerts and VisualsTitle: Contrarian Donchian Channel Indicator with Alerts and Visuals
Description:
The Contrarian Donchian Channel Indicator is designed for traders who seek to implement a contrarian approach using the time-tested Donchian Channel method. This indicator not only signals potential entry points but also enhances trading visualization by marking hypothetical stop loss and take profit levels.
Key Features:
Donchian Channel Signals: Utilizes the Donchian Channel to identify potential reversal points in the market. The indicator generates buy signals when the price touches or breaches the lower band, suggesting a potential upward reversal. Conversely, sell signals are generated when the price touches or exceeds the upper band, indicating a possible downward reversal.
Pause After Stop Loss: Incorporates a unique feature that pauses signal generation for a user-defined number of candles after a stop loss is hit. This helps in avoiding immediate re-entries in volatile market conditions.
Stop Loss and Take Profit Visualization: For each signal, the indicator draws dashed lines on the chart to represent the hypothetical stop loss (red) and take profit (green) levels. These levels are calculated based on user-input percentages for stop loss and the risk-reward ratio.
Alerts for Entry Signals: Traders can set up alerts for buy and sell signals, allowing them to stay informed of potential trading opportunities.
How to Use:
Entry Signal: A triangle symbol (green for buy, red for sell) accompanied by an alert (if set) indicates a potential entry point.
Stop Loss and Take Profit Lines: Use the drawn lines as a guide for setting stop loss and take profit levels if the signal aligns with your trading strategy.
Pause Feature: After a stop loss is triggered, observe the pause period before considering new signals to avoid overtrading in choppy markets.
Suitable For:
Traders who prefer a contrarian approach.
Those who use Donchian Channels as part of their trading strategy.
Traders who appreciate visual aids for better decision-making.
Customization Options:
Length of the Donchian Channel.
Risk/Reward Ratio.
Stop Loss Percentage.
Pause duration after a stop loss is hit.

Cloud Channel Signals Indicator [Quantigenics]The Cloud Channel Signals script is a key element of the Cloud Channel Signal System. It primarily focuses on identifying breakout and reversal trades through a sophisticated cloud channel overlay. The script, designed for overlay on the price portion of charts, displays a “cloud-like” channel that signals potential breakout and reversal points around the candles/bars, offering insights into price movements, volatility, and potential support or resistance zones at the outer bands of the channel.
As with all of our scripts, the "Cloud Channel Signals" script, is designed to work on ANY symbol and time frame. The input parameters can be adjusted to fit your specific trading style.
Technical Composition :
Cloud Channel Construction : The Cloud Channel Signals Script is characterized by its innovative Cloud Channel, a proprietary formulation that advances beyond traditional channel calculations. This channel is not a mere adaptation of Bollinger Bands or Donchian Channels; it sets itself apart through a complex blend of calculations. While incorporating elements like standard deviation and high/low price ranges, it notably introduces EMA-based adjustments and integrates intricate mathematical models. This sophisticated algorithmic approach results in a channel that adeptly marks price extremes and dynamically adapts to market volatility and trend shifts. Enhanced by advanced statistical methods, the Cloud Channel offers nuanced insights into market behavior. Its configuration is based on specific range calculations derived from price fluctuations over a defined period, paired with an evolved standard deviation method. This results in a multifaceted analytical tool that surpasses typical channel indicators in depth and sophistication, providing traders with a comprehensive, nuanced view of support and resistance areas.
Signal Generation Mechanism :
> Breakout Signals :
The script identifies breakout signals by assessing price crossover relative to a dynamically constructed channel. This channel is derived from a blend of moving averages and price extremes over a specified period. Oscillator crossovers aid in confirming breakout signals. These crossovers are determined by comparing the oscillator line, calculated as a difference between a transformed moving average and a kernel estimation, with a signal line derived from an exponential moving average of the oscillator.
> Reversal Signals :
Reversal signals are generated through mathematical analysis of price proximity to the channel's edges, which are calculated using a combination of EMA (Exponential Moving Average) values and the highest/lowest price points within a given time frame. The oscillator's role in identifying reversals involves assessing its value relative to its historical range, which is dynamically adjusted based on market conditions.
Oscillator Dynamics :
The oscillator is constructed using a combination of rational quadratic and Gaussian kernel functions applied to close prices. The length parameter of the oscillator controls the window of these calculations, impacting its responsiveness. The dynamic level adjustment in the oscillator is based on a calculated average of its peak and trough values over a specified period, offering adaptive sensitivity.
Channel Gradient Smoothness :
The gradient smoothness of the channel is a function of the variance between the channel's upper and lower bounds. This is visually represented through color intensity changes, reflecting the level of volatility and market momentum.
Trend Bias Assessment :
Trend Bias is calculated using a combination of high/low averages and smoothed price data. This involves taking the average of the highest and lowest prices over a specified length, then applying an exponential moving average to this average for trend direction assessment. This mathematical assessment of trend direction complements the breakout and reversal signals by aligning them with the prevailing market trend.
How to Use the Cloud Channel Signals System :
Usage Considerations:
The script must be configured with precision to ensure it aligns with the trader’s strategy. This involves meticulous setting of channel lengths, oscillator parameters, and trend bias length. For effective application, it’s essential to synchronize the input parameters with the companion "Cloud Channel Indicators" script, ensuring a unified analytical perspective. The option to choose real-time vs. post-bar-closure signal generation offers flexibility in trading styles, catering to both aggressive and conservative trading approaches.
Integration with Cloud Channel Indicators script :
> Use the "Cloud Channel Signals" script alongside the "Cloud Channel Indicators" script for comprehensive market analysis. Ensure identical input parameters across both scripts for consistency.
> Note: The lower indicators are from the 'Cloud Channel Indicators' script, complementing the 'Cloud Channel Signals' script seen here, which generates the 'cloud' and signals on the price chart.
> The 'Cloud Channel Indicators” script can be found here:
Understanding On-Chart Signals :
The script displays entry signals directly on the chart, offering visual cues for both breakout and reversal trading opportunities. Traders can toggle the display of these signals for either breakout or reversal trades, allowing customization based on their trading strategy.
Identifying Entry Points :
> Breakout Trades : Enable 'Show Break Out Trades' to view signals where the price crosses the cloud channel, coupled with oscillator crossovers. A bullish breakout is indicated when the price crosses above the top channel, and a bearish breakout when it crosses below the bottom channel.
> Reversal Trades : Activate 'Show Reversal Trades' to identify potential reversal points. These are highlighted when the price rebounds from the cloud channel's edges, supported by oscillator and trend bias indicators.
Setting Stop Losses Using Outer Bands : Employ the outer bands of the cloud channel as dynamic stop-loss levels. Position stop losses below the lower band for long trades and above the upper band for short trades, adjusting as the bands shift with market conditions.
Executing and Managing Trades : Enter trades based on the script’s breakout or reversal signals, in line with your risk management rules.
Adjust stop-loss levels : Adjust stop-loss levels according to the outer band movements and exit the trade based on reversal signals or profit targets determined by significant support or resistance levels indicated by the cloud channel.
Customizable Alerts for Trading Efficiency :
Set up TradingView alerts to notify you of crucial trading signals like breakout or reversal opportunities, or when the price reaches critical levels defined by the cloud channel.
Adapting Strategy to Market Dynamics:
Input Parameter Settings :
Important Usage Guidance : For seamless integration with its counterpart, the "Cloud Channel Indicators" script, it's crucial to align the input parameter settings across both scripts. When adjusting values from their defaults, ensure that corresponding parameters in both scripts are identically set. This synchronization is key to achieving a cohesive and accurate representation on your charts.
Intra-Bar Order Generation (IntraBar) : Allows traders to choose if signals are generated within the current bar (real-time) or after the bar closes, providing flexibility in signal timing.
Show Break Out/Reversal Trades (BreakOutTrades, ReversalTrades) : Enables traders to toggle the visibility of specific trade types - breakout or reversal trades - on the chart.
Show Text Labels (ShowSignalLabels) : Option to display text labels for signals, enhancing the clarity and readability of the chart.
Inner/Outer Channel Length (InnerChannelLength, OutterChannelLength) : Sets the calculation periods for the inner and outer channels, affecting the sensitivity and responsiveness of the cloud channel.
Oscillator Length (OscillatorLength) : Determines the length for the precision oscillator calculation, impacting its sensitivity to market movements.
Top/Bottom Level (TopLevel, BottomLevel) : Establishes the upper and lower bounds for the oscillator, used to identify overbought and oversold conditions.
Use Dynamic Level (Dynamic_Level_OnOff) : Provides an option to use dynamic levels in the oscillator, for a more adaptive and responsive analysis.
Trend Bias Length (TrendBiasLength) : Adjusts the period for the Trend Bias calculation, crucial for understanding the overall market trend.
Top/Bottom Channel Color (TopChannelColor, BottomChannelColor) : Customization options for the color of the top and bottom channels.
Smoothness of The Gradient (Smoothness) : Controls the smoothness level of the channel's gradient, allowing for visual customization.
Alert Setting Guidance :
The script includes a versatile alert system for notifying traders of critical trading signals:
Breakout and Reversal Trade Alerts : These alerts are activated for breakout and reversal signals based on the script’s analysis, which can be crucial for timely entries and exits.
Custom Alert Conditions : Traders can set up alerts in TradingView’s system to get notified under specific conditions, like when a new signal (arrow up/down) appears on the chart, tailoring the alerts to their trading strategies.
The "Cloud Channel Signals " script offers a valuable tool for traders looking to capitalize on breakout and reversal opportunities. Its advanced channel and oscillator settings, combined with customizable alert options, make it a valuable addition to any trader's arsenal. Users are encouraged to explore these settings to fully leverage the script's capabilities, keeping in mind that trading involves risks and past performance does not guarantee future results. For optimal results, this script is designed to be used in conjunction with the "Cloud Channel Indicators .

Curved Management (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Curved Management (Zeiierman) is a trade management indicator tailored for traders looking to visualize their entry, stop loss, and take profit levels. Unique in its design, this indicator doesn't just display lines; it offers rounded or curved visualizations, setting it apart from conventional tools.
█ How It Works
At its core, this indicator leverages the power of the Average True Range (ATR), a metric for volatility, to establish logical stop-loss levels based on recent price action. By incorporating the ATR, the tool dynamically adapts to the market's changing volatility. What sets it apart is the unique curved visualization. Instead of the usual straight lines representing entry/sl levels, users can choose between rounded and straight edges for their take profit and stop loss levels. This aesthetic tweak gives the chart a cleaner look and offers a more intuitive understanding of risk management.
█ How to Apply the Indicator
Upon initially loading the indicator, a label appears that reads, "Set the 'xy' time and price for 'Curved Management (Zeiierman).'" This prompts you to click on the chart at your entry point. After selecting your entry point on the chart, the indicator will load. Ensure you adjust the trend direction in the settings panel based on whether you took a long or short position.
█ How to Use
Use the tool to manage your active position.
Long Entry
Short Entry
█ Settings
The indicator comes packed with various settings allowing customization:
Trade Direction
Decide the direction of the trade (long/short).
Reward multiplier
Sets the ratio for take profit relative to stop loss. Increasing this value will set your take profit further from the entry, and decreasing it will bring it closer.
Risk multiplier
Multiplier for calculating stop loss based on the ATR value. Increasing this makes your stop loss further from the entry, while decreasing brings it closer.

day traderThe day trader indicator is a technical analysis tool used in financial markets, primarily in stock trading and forex trading. It helps traders identify the direction of a price trend and potential entry or exit points. Here's a brief description of the Super Trend indicator:
The day trader indicator is represented as a line on a price chart. It has two key components:
1. *Trend Direction:* The line indicates the current trend direction. If it's rising, it suggests an uptrend, and if it's falling, it suggests a downtrend.
2. *Stop-and-Reverse (SAR) Points:* The Super Trend also serves as a dynamic stop-loss level. When the price crosses the line from below, it generates a buy signal, indicating a potential reversal from a downtrend to an uptrend. Conversely, when the price crosses the line from above, it generates a sell signal, indicating a potential reversal from an uptrend to a downtrend.
Traders often use the Super Trend indicator to:
- *Identify Trends:* It helps traders determine whether a market is in an uptrend or downtrend, which can be crucial for making informed trading decisions.
- *Entry and Exit Points:* day trader signals can be used to enter or exit positions. Buy signals may suggest entering a long position, while sell signals may indicate short-selling or exiting a long position.
- *Stop-Loss Levels:* Traders use the Super Trend line as a dynamic stop-loss level. As the price moves, the stop-loss level adjusts accordingly, helping to protect profits and limit losses.
It's important to note that while the indicator can be a valuable tool, like any technical analysis tool, it's not foolproof and should be used in conjunction with other analysis methods and risk management strategies for successful trading. Traders often customize the indicator's settings to suit their trading preferences and timeframes.
Liquidity Concepts [BigBeluga]The Liquidity Concepts indicator is designed to represent the liquidity on the chart using pivot points as potential stop-losses / liquidity grabs.
The indicator is facilitated by a market structure detector and pivot points to identify resting liquidity / stop-loss levels.
A liquidity grab or a stop-loss hunt is when retail traders place their stop-loss orders at recent highs / most recent highs or lows. This is a spot where big players attempt to push the market to trigger all the stop-loss orders and gain a better entry in their favor.
🔶 CALCULATION
The indicator uses the Higher Lower script made by @LonesomeTheBlue to determine these pivot points. When a pivot point is formed, it is displayed on the chart with the corresponding symbol (HH - HL - LH - LL). When one of these points is broken, a line is drawn between the pivot point and the candle that broke it.
A liquidity grab is only recognized after it has occurred, and it is represented with a box showing all the candles that were involved in the sweep / stop-loss hunt.
A pivot point is established only after the selected lookback period and cannot be printed beforehand in any manner. This ensures that it captures the highest point within the lookback period following the candle formation.
An HL (Higher Low) point is established when it is lower than an HH (Higher High) point, whereas an LH (Lower High) point is established when it is higher than an LL (Lower Low) point.
Boxes are formed in two different types: Major and Minor.
- Major boxes occur when LH or HL points are breached, with their high or low point crossing above or below in the specific lookback period.
- Minor boxes occur when HH or LL points are breached, with their high or low point crossing above or below in the specific lookback period.
Minor points are less efficient since they represent key highs and lows, and before taking out those liquidity levels, the HL and LH points should be cleared.
Representation of Pivot Point Formation:
Liquidity wicks are a minor representation of a stop-loss hunt during the retracement of a pivot point. This means that a pivot point is broken only by the wick and not by the entire body.
Bigger wick = more liquidity
Lower wick = less liquidity
Liquidity wicks can be used as trade confirmation or targets for your entry to enhance accuracy.
Users have the option to display candle coloring based on the currently detected trend.
🔶 VERIFICATION
Users have the option to specify the verification length for when the liquidity should occur. This means that if the length is set to 7, the indicator will search for the liquidity formation within the last 7 candles; otherwise, it will be considered invalid.
🔶 CONCEPTS
The whole idea is to help find possible zone of stop loss hunting helping having a better entry in our trading, we can utilize a lot more tools, and this shoud be used as confluence only
🔶 OPTIONS
Users have complete control over the settings, allowing them to:
- Disable pivot points.
- Disable the display of boxes.
- Disable liquidity wicks.
- Customize colors to their preferences.
- Adjust lookback settings for historical data analysis.
- Modify candle coloring settings.
- Adjust the text size of labels for better readability and customization.
🔶 RECAP
Box => Represents liquidity formation / stop-loss hunt
- Minor Box HH / LL point
- Major Box LH / HL point
Liquidity Wicks => Formed when a pivot point is broken only by the wick
BOS / CHoCH => Calculated using the pivot points from the @LonesomeTheBlue script

Top Tier Position SurveillanceThis is a light-weight position tool I coded after not finding something similar and that lets you enter the inputs in a way you do that also at your CEX.
You enter:
1. ENTRY price of position
2. TAKE PROFIT level
3. STOP LOSS level
4. Amount of USD you put into the position (aka collateral)
5. Your leverage (10x, 100x or whatever)
The tool then checks if that is a short or a long to show you that with a color and to calculate the profit and loss correctly.
It then shows you the current PnL in % and in USD at the label where you opened the position.
This is a tool for long and short position without the complicated stuff with "pips", "lot", "ticks", "risk" and all the things you typically don't need and mostly don't know about when trading at a CEX.
I made it to see my PnL without having to check in the App of the CEX which is pretty annoying.
PRO users might miss things... the intention was to make it easily to surveil your position without the need for a lot of inputs.
If your position goes into the desired direction you can lift the SL above the entry (if you're long for example), and it then renames to "SL-Profit" because you're in profit then and not in loss... I think there's some nice detail work in it which you hopefully will enjoy.
VolatilityThis script shows three different calculations for volatility.
All three can be used as Stop-Loss...
- Absolute Price Changes
- Maximum Price Fluctuation
- and every one should know Average True Range
The script has a dark and light theme.
And the colors can be changed and each can be deactivated.
On top of that I stumbled over the fact that when MPF crosses over APC
this could result in a significant change in price and could also be used as an entry or exit.
This is also highlighted by default. You can change its background color and you can deactivate it too.
ACP measures volatility over most recent close prices.
This is excellent for comparing volatility.
It includes both frequency and magnitude.
In other words: Sum of differences between second to last close price and last close price as absolute value for 'n' bars.
MPF measures volatility over most recent candles, which could be used as an estimate of risk.
It may also be effective as the basis for a stop-loss or take-profit,
like the ATR but it ignores the frequency of directional changes within the time interval.
In other words: The difference between the highest high and lowest low over 'n' bars.
When you don't know what the ATR is then you can look at this link .
Option ScalperWhat is Scalping?
Scalping is a trading strategy aimed at profiting from quick momentum in a volatile index or stock or any other instrument that can be traded.
Traders who use such strategies place anywhere from 10 to a few hundred trades in a single day.
The idea behind such type of trading is that small moves in an index or stock price are much easier to capture than the larger moves.
Traders who use such strategies are known as scalpers. When you take many small profits a number of times, say 10 points scalped 20 times per day, they can easily add up to large gains.
An Option Buyer's Biggest Enemy is Time Decay and when you scalp, you do not allow the time decay to eat your Option Premium as your Entry and Exit is often quick enough.
What is Option Scalper?
Option Scalper indicator is a momentum-based indicator that tries to detect momentum based upon a number of factors as given below:
(1) Price action accumulated over a period of time when big candles are nowhere
(2) Repeatedly Occurring, certain Candle patterns which indicate if buyers have the upper hand or sellers are ruling the market.
(3) Gradient of moving averages which shows consistency of net buying/selling force
(4) Price jumping normal distribution line and landing in outlying areas, signalling increasing momentum of buying/selling activity.
Based upon the above factors, when Option Scalper thinks a move has the potential to turn into a big move, it generates its Buy/Sell Signals.
When aggressive buying or selling starts where Buying & Selling Forces become unequal, the Price starts moving in one direction with candles making Higher Highs or Lower Lows, moving average lines start scaling up or down or volumes start increasing.
Option Scalper detects these (1) Higher Highs or Lower Lows, (2) scaling up moving average lines, and/or (3) price breaking out of channels; and generates Buy or Sell signals.
In order to use this indicator, simply deploy this on your chart, and wait for Buy/Sell signals. When a Buy/Sell Signal appears, a small line starts forming up at the closing level of Buy/Sell signal candle. Your Entry will be above that line for Buy Signal and below that line for Sell Signal.
It works on all time frames.
Whenever a Buy Signal is followed by Sell signal (let it be after 7 - 8 candles or after many candles) or vice-versa, you have to switch your position to make most of the reverse move.
It is a general purpose indicator and may be used on stocks, commodities, forex and any other instruments alike and is not meant for any specific market.
How to Take Buy/Sell Entry with Option Scalper?
Whenever a Buy/Sell Signal appears on a candle, Option Scalper starts marking its closing price with a horizontal line that keeps extending towards right side with every new candle. This line is Blue in Color for Buy Signal and dark golden color for Sell Signal.
Initially this horizontal line will be very small but as more and more candles appear with the passage of time, the length of the line keeps increasing.
The purpose of this line is to mark the closing price of Signal candle and you have to take your Buy Entry above this line (if last signal is BUY) or you have to take your trade Below this line (if last signal is SELL).
The indicator will also draw another line at the Opening Price of Signal Candle, which can act as your initial stop loss. If trade starts moving in your direction and price goes above upper variance line (light green curvy line) or goes below lower variance line (purple wavy line), then that line becomes your trailing stop loss line from that point onwards.
The indicator also marks the consolidation zone for you. If the Buy/Sell Signal has come but price is in consolidation zone (grey colour cloud), do not take any positions yet and wait for the price to come out of the cloud and breach the Entry Line.
Exiting Buy/Sell Positions and Re-Entry Rules
1. Exiting your Buy Trade: When a Buy Trade is active, indicator can detect where the ongoing upmove may end or retrace for a while and it will print an X symbol (RED COLOR) to warn you. After you see a Red Color X symbol, if price starts making lower lows, you can exit your Buy Trade there or if you are in good profit, you can wait for the price to go below upper variance line (the green color Trailing Stop Loss Line for Buy Trade). See the image below for Red Color X symbol which warns you to be prepared for EXIT from Buy Trade:
2. Re-Entry for Buy Trade: If the last signal on your chart is still Buy Signal but your stop loss has been hit once or twice and you have no open positions now, you can RE-ENTER in buy trade if and when price again climbs above the grey cloud.
3. Exiting your Sell Trade: When a Sell Trade is active, indicator can detect where the ongoing down-move may end or retrace for a while and it will print an X symbol (Green COLOR) to warn you. After you see a Green Color X symbol, if price starts making higher highs, you can exit your Sell Trade there or if you are in good profit, you can wait for the price to go above lower variance line (the purple color Trailing Stop Loss Line for Sell Trade).
4. Re-Entry for Sell Trade: If the last signal on your chart is Sell Signal but your stop loss has been hit once or twice and you have no open positions now, you can RE-ENTER in Sell trade if and when price again crosses below the grey color cloud.
See the image below for recognizing Red and Green X symbols which indicate that temporary retracement or reversal signal is developing:
What are the other features of Option Scalper?
1. End to End Horizontal Support/Resistance Lines: Indicator also detects, prints and deletes horizontal support and resistance lines which can help in your trading decisions. For example, a Buy Signal comes and price crosses above upper variance line and also crosses nearby horizontal resistance line means it has higher probability of moving further up. The reverse is also true (for Sell Signal). See an example of a resistance line below:
2. Star Symbols: If 5 or more consecutive candles are of the same color, then Star Symbol (*) starts appearing above or below the candles. When price has moved too high or too low from the upper or lower variance line, these stars indicate that there is higher probability of retracement happening now which should prompt you to book full or partial profit. See the circled stars in the below image
3. Color Changing Candles: If a candle changes its color from Red to Purple or from Green to light green, they indicate increased intensity of Selling or Buying activity. For example, if each 1 min candle within a 5 min candle is red, then that 5 min candle will turn purple which means Selling pressure is too much and there are very few or no buyers at all. Reverse is also true when Green Candle becomes Light Green. Example images of such candles can be seen below:
4. Consolidation Zone: It is very important for an option buyer to strike only when there is momentum and not to take any fresh trade (or if you already have a position, then closing it for the time being) when price is in consolidation zone. Consolidation zone is marked by a grey colour cloud as seen in below image.
What Type of Alerts Can be Set up: You can set up 3 type of alerts with this indicator (a) Buy Entry Signal which happens when Price closes above the marked Buy Price Level (b) Sell Signal which happens when Price closes below the marked Sell Price Level or (c) Any signal (if you want to be alerted when either Buy or Sell Signal happens)
