⚠️ Dangers of Trading
1️⃣ You can lose money very fast
Markets move quickly, and leverage makes losses even faster. Even experienced traders go through drawdowns.
2️⃣ Emotional decisions ruin accounts
Fear (selling too early) and greed (holding too long or overtrading) cause most losses. Trading is more psychological than technical.
3️⃣ Overconfidence after small wins
Many traders win at the beginning and believe they “mastered” the market, then take big risks and blow the account.
4️⃣ No system = gambling
If you trade without clear rules and risk management, you’re not trading—you’re gambling.
5️⃣ Market is not fair
Smart money, institutions, HFT algorithms, and stop-hunts exist. Retail traders are often the liquidity for bigger players.
6️⃣ News/Unexpected events
Unpredictable events (CPI, FOMC, war, tweets, etc.) can instantly move the market against your position.
✅ Advice for Safer & Smarter Trading
✅ 1. Protect your capital first
Your number one job is to survive.
Never risk more than 1–2% per trade.
✅ 2. Have a written trading plan
Define:
When to enter
When to exit
How much to risk
What conditions must be present
If your plan is not written, you don’t have a plan.
✅ 3. Use Stop Loss always
No stop loss = account suicide.
Even professional traders are wrong sometimes.
✅ 4. Focus on one strategy (mastery > trying everything)
Jumping from one strategy to another causes confusion. One good strategy with discipline beats five strategies with no consistency.
✅ 5. Trade with the trend and higher timeframe direction
Trading against HTF structure is fighting the market.
✅ 6. Control emotions like a machine
Biggest trader enemies:
Overtrading
Revenge trading
Fear of missing out (FOMO)
When emotions are strong → stop trading.
✅ 7. Be patient (best skill of a trader)
Sometimes the best trade is no trade.
Professional traders wait for high-probability setups.
✅ 8. Backtest and demo before using real money
If it doesn’t make money in backtesting or demo, it won’t magically work live.
✅ 9. Accept losses (they are part of the game)
Even the best traders lose. The key is small losses, big wins.
✅ 10. Keep learning forever
Market changes. What works today may not work tomorrow. Study price action, volume, psychology, risk management.
🧠 Final Truths:
✅ Trading is a business, not easy money
✅ Winning rate doesn’t matter—risk/reward matters
✅ Consistency > luck
✅ Discipline > knowledge
✅ Survival > profit
BOCS Channel Scalper Strategy - Automated Mean Reversion System# BOCS Channel Scalper Strategy - Automated Mean Reversion System
## WHAT THIS STRATEGY DOES:
This is an automated mean reversion trading strategy that identifies consolidation channels through volatility analysis and executes scalp trades when price enters entry zones near channel boundaries. Unlike breakout strategies, this system assumes price will revert to the channel mean, taking profits as price bounces back from extremes. Position sizing is fully customizable with three methods: fixed contracts, percentage of equity, or fixed dollar amount. Stop losses are placed just outside channel boundaries with take profits calculated either as fixed points or as a percentage of channel range.
## KEY DIFFERENCE FROM ORIGINAL BOCS:
**This strategy is designed for traders seeking higher trade frequency.** The original BOCS indicator trades breakouts OUTSIDE channels, waiting for price to escape consolidation before entering. This scalper version trades mean reversion INSIDE channels, entering when price reaches channel extremes and betting on a bounce back to center. The result is significantly more trading opportunities:
- **Original BOCS**: 1-3 signals per channel (only on breakout)
- **Scalper Version**: 5-15+ signals per channel (every touch of entry zones)
- **Trade Style**: Mean reversion vs trend following
- **Hold Time**: Seconds to minutes vs minutes to hours
- **Best Markets**: Ranging/choppy conditions vs trending breakouts
This makes the scalper ideal for active day traders who want continuous opportunities within consolidation zones rather than waiting for breakout confirmation. However, increased trade frequency also means higher commission costs and requires tighter risk management.
## TECHNICAL METHODOLOGY:
### Price Normalization Process:
The strategy normalizes price data to create consistent volatility measurements across different instruments and price levels. It calculates the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined lookback period (default 100 bars). Current close price is normalized using: (close - lowest_low) / (highest_high - lowest_low), producing values between 0 and 1 for standardized volatility analysis.
### Volatility Detection:
A 14-period standard deviation is applied to the normalized price series to measure price deviation from the mean. Higher standard deviation values indicate volatility expansion; lower values indicate consolidation. The strategy uses ta.highestbars() and ta.lowestbars() to identify when volatility peaks and troughs occur over the detection period (default 14 bars).
### Channel Formation Logic:
When volatility crosses from a high level to a low level (ta.crossover(upper, lower)), a consolidation phase begins. The strategy tracks the highest and lowest prices during this period, which become the channel boundaries. Minimum duration of 10+ bars is required to filter out brief volatility spikes. Channels are rendered as box objects with defined upper and lower boundaries, with colored zones indicating entry areas.
### Entry Signal Generation:
The strategy uses immediate touch-based entry logic. Entry zones are defined as a percentage from channel edges (default 20%):
- **Long Entry Zone**: Bottom 20% of channel (bottomBound + channelRange × 0.2)
- **Short Entry Zone**: Top 20% of channel (topBound - channelRange × 0.2)
Long signals trigger when candle low touches or enters the long entry zone. Short signals trigger when candle high touches or enters the short entry zone. This captures mean reversion opportunities as price reaches channel extremes.
### Cooldown Filter:
An optional cooldown period (measured in bars) prevents signal spam by enforcing minimum spacing between consecutive signals. If cooldown is set to 3 bars, no new long signal will fire until 3 bars after the previous long signal. Long and short cooldowns are tracked independently, allowing both directions to signal within the same period.
### ATR Volatility Filter:
The strategy includes a multi-timeframe ATR filter to avoid trading during low-volatility conditions. Using request.security(), it fetches ATR values from a specified timeframe (e.g., 1-minute ATR while trading on 5-minute charts). The filter compares current ATR to a user-defined minimum threshold:
- If ATR ≥ threshold: Trading enabled
- If ATR < threshold: No signals fire
This prevents entries during dead zones where mean reversion is unreliable due to insufficient price movement.
### Take Profit Calculation:
Two TP methods are available:
**Fixed Points Mode**:
- Long TP = Entry + (TP_Ticks × syminfo.mintick)
- Short TP = Entry - (TP_Ticks × syminfo.mintick)
**Channel Percentage Mode**:
- Long TP = Entry + (ChannelRange × TP_Percent)
- Short TP = Entry - (ChannelRange × TP_Percent)
Default 50% targets the channel midline, a natural mean reversion target. Larger percentages aim for opposite channel edge.
### Stop Loss Placement:
Stop losses are placed just outside the channel boundary by a user-defined tick offset:
- Long SL = ChannelBottom - (SL_Offset_Ticks × syminfo.mintick)
- Short SL = ChannelTop + (SL_Offset_Ticks × syminfo.mintick)
This logic assumes channel breaks invalidate the mean reversion thesis. If price breaks through, the range is no longer valid and position exits.
### Trade Execution Logic:
When entry conditions are met (price in zone, cooldown satisfied, ATR filter passed, no existing position):
1. Calculate entry price at zone boundary
2. Calculate TP and SL based on selected method
3. Execute strategy.entry() with calculated position size
4. Place strategy.exit() with TP limit and SL stop orders
5. Update info table with active trade details
The strategy enforces one position at a time by checking strategy.position_size == 0 before entry.
### Channel Breakout Management:
Channels are removed when price closes more than 10 ticks outside boundaries. This tolerance prevents premature channel deletion from minor breaks or wicks, allowing the mean reversion setup to persist through small boundary violations.
### Position Sizing System:
Three methods calculate position size:
**Fixed Contracts**:
- Uses exact contract quantity specified in settings
- Best for futures traders (e.g., "trade 2 NQ contracts")
**Percentage of Equity**:
- position_size = (strategy.equity × equity_pct / 100) / close
- Dynamically scales with account growth
**Cash Amount**:
- position_size = cash_amount / close
- Maintains consistent dollar exposure regardless of price
## INPUT PARAMETERS:
### Position Sizing:
- **Position Size Type**: Choose Fixed Contracts, % of Equity, or Cash Amount
- **Number of Contracts**: Fixed quantity per trade (1-1000)
- **% of Equity**: Percentage of account to allocate (1-100%)
- **Cash Amount**: Dollar value per position ($100+)
### Channel Settings:
- **Nested Channels**: Allow multiple overlapping channels vs single channel
- **Normalization Length**: Lookback for high/low calculation (1-500, default 100)
- **Box Detection Length**: Period for volatility detection (1-100, default 14)
### Scalping Settings:
- **Enable Long Scalps**: Toggle long entries on/off
- **Enable Short Scalps**: Toggle short entries on/off
- **Entry Zone % from Edge**: Size of entry zone (5-50%, default 20%)
- **SL Offset (Ticks)**: Distance beyond channel for stop (1+, default 5)
- **Cooldown Period (Bars)**: Minimum spacing between signals (0 = no cooldown)
### ATR Filter:
- **Enable ATR Filter**: Toggle volatility filter on/off
- **ATR Timeframe**: Source timeframe for ATR (1, 5, 15, 60 min, etc.)
- **ATR Length**: Smoothing period (1-100, default 14)
- **Min ATR Value**: Threshold for trade enablement (0.1+, default 10.0)
### Take Profit Settings:
- **TP Method**: Choose Fixed Points or % of Channel
- **TP Fixed (Ticks)**: Static distance in ticks (1+, default 30)
- **TP % of Channel**: Dynamic target as channel percentage (10-100%, default 50%)
### Appearance:
- **Show Entry Zones**: Toggle zone labels on channels
- **Show Info Table**: Display real-time strategy status
- **Table Position**: Corner placement (Top Left/Right, Bottom Left/Right)
- **Color Settings**: Customize long/short/TP/SL colors
## VISUAL INDICATORS:
- **Channel boxes** with semi-transparent fill showing consolidation zones
- **Colored entry zones** labeled "LONG ZONE ▲" and "SHORT ZONE ▼"
- **Entry signal arrows** below/above bars marking long/short entries
- **Active TP/SL lines** with emoji labels (⊕ Entry, 🎯 TP, 🛑 SL)
- **Info table** showing position status, channel state, last signal, entry/TP/SL prices, and ATR status
## HOW TO USE:
### For 1-3 Minute Scalping (NQ/ES):
- ATR Timeframe: "1" (1-minute)
- ATR Min Value: 10.0 (for NQ), adjust per instrument
- Entry Zone %: 20-25%
- TP Method: Fixed Points, 20-40 ticks
- SL Offset: 5-10 ticks
- Cooldown: 2-3 bars
- Position Size: 1-2 contracts
### For 5-15 Minute Day Trading:
- ATR Timeframe: "5" or match chart
- ATR Min Value: Adjust to instrument (test 8-15 for NQ)
- Entry Zone %: 20-30%
- TP Method: % of Channel, 40-60%
- SL Offset: 5-10 ticks
- Cooldown: 3-5 bars
- Position Size: Fixed contracts or 5-10% equity
### For 30-60 Minute Swing Scalping:
- ATR Timeframe: "15" or "30"
- ATR Min Value: Lower threshold for broader market
- Entry Zone %: 25-35%
- TP Method: % of Channel, 50-70%
- SL Offset: 10-15 ticks
- Cooldown: 5+ bars or disable
- Position Size: % of equity recommended
## BACKTEST CONSIDERATIONS:
- Strategy performs best in ranging, mean-reverting markets
- Strong trending markets produce more stop losses as price breaks channels
- ATR filter significantly reduces trade count but improves quality during low volatility
- Cooldown period trades signal quantity for signal quality
- Commission and slippage materially impact sub-5-minute timeframe performance
- Shorter timeframes require tighter entry zones (15-20%) to catch quick reversions
- % of Channel TP adapts better to varying channel sizes than fixed points
- Fixed contract sizing recommended for consistent risk per trade in futures
**Backtesting Parameters Used**: This strategy was developed and tested using realistic commission and slippage values to provide accurate performance expectations. Recommended settings: Commission of $1.40 per side (typical for NQ futures through discount brokers), slippage of 2 ticks to account for execution delays on fast-moving scalp entries. These values reflect real-world trading costs that active scalpers will encounter. Backtest results without proper cost simulation will significantly overstate profitability.
## COMPATIBLE MARKETS:
Works on any instrument with price data including stock indices (NQ, ES, YM, RTY), individual stocks, forex pairs (EUR/USD, GBP/USD), cryptocurrency (BTC, ETH), and commodities. Volume-based features require data feed with volume information but are optional for core functionality.
## KNOWN LIMITATIONS:
- Immediate touch entry can fire multiple times in choppy zones without adequate cooldown
- Channel deletion at 10-tick breaks may be too aggressive or lenient depending on instrument tick size
- ATR filter from lower timeframes requires higher-tier TradingView subscription (request.security limitation)
- Mean reversion logic fails in strong breakout scenarios leading to stop loss hits
- Position sizing via % of equity or cash amount calculates based on close price, may differ from actual fill price
- No partial closing capability - full position exits at TP or SL only
- Strategy does not account for gap openings or overnight holds
## RISK DISCLOSURE:
Trading involves substantial risk of loss. Past performance does not guarantee future results. This strategy is for educational purposes and backtesting only. Mean reversion strategies can experience extended drawdowns during trending markets. Stop losses may not fill at intended levels during extreme volatility or gaps. Thoroughly test on historical data and paper trade before risking real capital. Use appropriate position sizing and never risk more than you can afford to lose. Consider consulting a licensed financial advisor before making trading decisions. Automated trading systems can malfunction - monitor all live positions actively.
## ACKNOWLEDGMENT & CREDITS:
This strategy is built upon the channel detection methodology created by **AlgoAlpha** in the "Smart Money Breakout Channels" indicator. Full credit and appreciation to AlgoAlpha for pioneering the normalized volatility approach to identifying consolidation patterns. The core channel formation logic using normalized price standard deviation is AlgoAlpha's original contribution to the TradingView community.
Enhancements to the original concept include: mean reversion entry logic (vs breakout), immediate touch-based signals, multi-timeframe ATR volatility filtering, flexible position sizing (fixed/percentage/cash), cooldown period filtering, dual TP methods (fixed points vs channel percentage), automated strategy execution with exit management, and real-time position monitoring table.
BOCS AdaptiveBOCS Adaptive Strategy - Automated Volatility Breakout System
WHAT THIS STRATEGY DOES:
This is an automated trading strategy that detects consolidation patterns through volatility analysis and executes trades when price breaks out of these channels. Take-profit and stop-loss levels are calculated dynamically using Average True Range (ATR) to adapt to current market volatility. The strategy closes positions partially at the first profit target and exits the remainder at the second target or stop loss.
TECHNICAL METHODOLOGY:
Price Normalization Process:
The strategy begins by normalizing price to create a consistent measurement scale. It calculates the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined lookback period (default 100 bars). The current close price is then normalized using the formula: (close - lowest_low) / (highest_high - lowest_low). This produces values between 0 and 1, allowing volatility analysis to work consistently across different instruments and price levels.
Volatility Detection:
A 14-period standard deviation is applied to the normalized price series. Standard deviation measures how much prices deviate from their average - higher values indicate volatility expansion, lower values indicate consolidation. The strategy uses ta.highestbars() and ta.lowestbars() functions to track when volatility reaches peaks and troughs over the detection length period (default 14 bars).
Channel Formation Logic:
When volatility crosses from a high level to a low level, this signals the beginning of a consolidation phase. The strategy records this moment using ta.crossover(upper, lower) and begins tracking the highest and lowest prices during the consolidation. These become the channel boundaries. The duration between the crossover and current bar must exceed 10 bars minimum to avoid false channels from brief volatility spikes. Channels are drawn using box objects with the recorded high/low boundaries.
Breakout Signal Generation:
Two detection modes are available:
Strong Closes Mode (default): Breakout occurs when the candle body midpoint math.avg(close, open) exceeds the channel boundary. This filters out wick-only breaks.
Any Touch Mode: Breakout occurs when the close price exceeds the boundary.
When price closes above the upper channel boundary, a bullish breakout signal generates. When price closes below the lower boundary, a bearish breakout signal generates. The channel is then removed from the chart.
ATR-Based Risk Management:
The strategy uses request.security() to fetch ATR values from a specified timeframe, which can differ from the chart timeframe. For example, on a 5-minute chart, you can use 1-minute ATR for more responsive calculations. The ATR is calculated using ta.atr(length) with a user-defined period (default 14).
Exit levels are calculated at the moment of breakout:
Long Entry Price = Upper channel boundary
Long TP1 = Entry + (ATR × TP1 Multiplier)
Long TP2 = Entry + (ATR × TP2 Multiplier)
Long SL = Entry - (ATR × SL Multiplier)
For short trades, the calculation inverts:
Short Entry Price = Lower channel boundary
Short TP1 = Entry - (ATR × TP1 Multiplier)
Short TP2 = Entry - (ATR × TP2 Multiplier)
Short SL = Entry + (ATR × SL Multiplier)
Trade Execution Logic:
When a breakout occurs, the strategy checks if trading hours filter is satisfied (if enabled) and if position size equals zero (no existing position). If volume confirmation is enabled, it also verifies that current volume exceeds 1.2 times the 20-period simple moving average.
If all conditions are met:
strategy.entry() opens a position using the user-defined number of contracts
strategy.exit() immediately places a stop loss order
The code monitors price against TP1 and TP2 levels on each bar
When price reaches TP1, strategy.close() closes the specified number of contracts (e.g., if you enter with 3 contracts and set TP1 close to 1, it closes 1 contract). When price reaches TP2, it closes all remaining contracts. If stop loss is hit first, the entire position exits via the strategy.exit() order.
Volume Analysis System:
The strategy uses ta.requestUpAndDownVolume(timeframe) to fetch up volume, down volume, and volume delta from a specified timeframe. Three display modes are available:
Volume Mode: Shows total volume as bars scaled relative to the 20-period average
Comparison Mode: Shows up volume and down volume as separate bars above/below the channel midline
Delta Mode: Shows net volume delta (up volume - down volume) as bars, positive values above midline, negative below
The volume confirmation logic compares breakout bar volume to the 20-period SMA. If volume ÷ average > 1.2, the breakout is classified as "confirmed." When volume confirmation is enabled in settings, only confirmed breakouts generate trades.
INPUT PARAMETERS:
Strategy Settings:
Number of Contracts: Fixed quantity to trade per signal (1-1000)
Require Volume Confirmation: Toggle to only trade signals with volume >120% of average
TP1 Close Contracts: Exact number of contracts to close at first target (1-1000)
Use Trading Hours Filter: Toggle to restrict trading to specified session
Trading Hours: Session input in HHMM-HHMM format (e.g., "0930-1600")
Main Settings:
Normalization Length: Lookback bars for high/low calculation (1-500, default 100)
Box Detection Length: Period for volatility peak/trough detection (1-100, default 14)
Strong Closes Only: Toggle between body midpoint vs close price for breakout detection
Nested Channels: Allow multiple overlapping channels vs single channel at a time
ATR TP/SL Settings:
ATR Timeframe: Source timeframe for ATR calculation (1, 5, 15, 60, etc.)
ATR Length: Smoothing period for ATR (1-100, default 14)
Take Profit 1 Multiplier: Distance from entry as multiple of ATR (0.1-10.0, default 2.0)
Take Profit 2 Multiplier: Distance from entry as multiple of ATR (0.1-10.0, default 3.0)
Stop Loss Multiplier: Distance from entry as multiple of ATR (0.1-10.0, default 1.0)
Enable Take Profit 2: Toggle second profit target on/off
VISUAL INDICATORS:
Channel boxes with semi-transparent fill showing consolidation zones
Green/red colored zones at channel boundaries indicating breakout areas
Volume bars displayed within channels using selected mode
TP/SL lines with labels showing both price level and distance in points
Entry signals marked with up/down triangles at breakout price
Strategy status table showing position, contracts, P&L, ATR values, and volume confirmation status
HOW TO USE:
For 2-Minute Scalping:
Set ATR Timeframe to "1" (1-minute), ATR Length to 12, TP1 Multiplier to 2.0, TP2 Multiplier to 3.0, SL Multiplier to 1.5. Enable volume confirmation and strong closes only. Use trading hours filter to avoid low-volume periods.
For 5-15 Minute Day Trading:
Set ATR Timeframe to match chart or use 5-minute, ATR Length to 14, TP1 Multiplier to 2.0, TP2 Multiplier to 3.5, SL Multiplier to 1.2. Volume confirmation recommended but optional.
For Hourly+ Swing Trading:
Set ATR Timeframe to 15-30 minute, ATR Length to 14-21, TP1 Multiplier to 2.5, TP2 Multiplier to 4.0, SL Multiplier to 1.5. Volume confirmation optional, nested channels can be enabled for multiple setups.
BACKTEST CONSIDERATIONS:
Strategy performs best during trending or volatility expansion phases
Consolidation-heavy or choppy markets produce more false signals
Shorter timeframes require wider stop loss multipliers due to noise
Commission and slippage significantly impact performance on sub-5-minute charts
Volume confirmation generally improves win rate but reduces trade frequency
ATR multipliers should be optimized for specific instrument characteristics
COMPATIBLE MARKETS:
Works on any instrument with price and volume data including forex pairs, stock indices, individual stocks, cryptocurrency, commodities, and futures contracts. Requires TradingView data feed that includes volume for volume confirmation features to function.
KNOWN LIMITATIONS:
Stop losses execute via strategy.exit() and may not fill at exact levels during gaps or extreme volatility
request.security() on lower timeframes requires higher-tier TradingView subscription
False breakouts inherent to breakout strategies cannot be completely eliminated
Performance varies significantly based on market regime (trending vs ranging)
Partial closing logic requires sufficient position size relative to TP1 close contracts setting
RISK DISCLOSURE:
Trading involves substantial risk of loss. Past performance of this or any strategy does not guarantee future results. This strategy is provided for educational purposes and automated backtesting. Thoroughly test on historical data and paper trade before risking real capital. Market conditions change and strategies that worked historically may fail in the future. Use appropriate position sizing and never risk more than you can afford to lose. Consider consulting a licensed financial advisor before making trading decisions.

Intraday Alpha Pro - ORB + Trend/MomentumOverview
This is a pure intraday trading strategy designed for active traders seeking to capitalize on short-term price movements using two complementary modules: Opening Range Breakout (ORB) and Trend/Momentum. The strategy operates strictly within a user-defined trading session, automatically flattening all positions at session end to avoid overnight carry. It employs a points-based exit system with a trailing stop that activates only after the target is reached, ensuring disciplined risk management. Optional Martingale position sizing is included for users who prefer aggressive scaling after losses.Key Features Pure Intraday, No Carry: Trades are confined to a user-defined session (default: 9:15 AM–3:25 PM, Monday–Sunday). All positions are closed at session end.
Non-Repainting: Entries are evaluated only on confirmed bar closes (barstate.isconfirmed), ensuring no lookahead or repainting.
Dual Signal Modules: Opening Range Breakout (ORB): Captures breakouts above/below the high/low of a user-defined opening range (default: 9:15 AM–9:30 AM).
Trend/Momentum: Combines EMA (9/21) crossovers, RSI filters, volume confirmation, and an optional 200-period MA trend filter for robust trend-following signals.
Points-Based Exits: Uses fixed stop-loss (slPoints, default 16 points) and take-profit (tpPoints, default 32 points) distances. Once the take-profit level is reached, a trailing stop (trailDistPts, default 10 points) activates, ratcheting monotonically to lock in gains.
Martingale Sizing (Optional): Allows position size increases after losses (up to maxQtyInput) with a reset option after wins.
Cooldown Period: Prevents immediate re-entries after exits using a configurable cooldown (cooldownBars).
Flexible Inputs: Toggle long/short entries, enable/disable ORB or Trend/Momentum modules, and customize all parameters (e.g., MA lengths, RSI thresholds, volume multiplier).
Visuals & Alerts: Plots ORB high/low lines and moving averages (9, 21, 200). Includes alerts for long/short entries and end-of-day flattening.
How It Works Session Management: Trades only within the specified tradeSes (default: 9:15 AM–3:25 PM). The ORB module uses a separate orbSes (default: 9:15 AM–9:30 AM) to calculate breakout levels. Positions are closed automatically at session end.
Entry Conditions: ORB: Long when price closes above the ORB high after the ORB session ends; short when price closes below the ORB low.
Trend/Momentum: Long on fast MA (default EMA 9) crossing above slow MA (default EMA 21), with RSI above rsiBuy (default 55), volume exceeding volMult (default 1.5x prior bar), and price above the 200-period MA (if enabled). Shorts use the inverse.
Exit Logic: Stop-loss is set at entry price ± slPoints.
Take-profit is monitored using a running high/low since entry. Once price moves tpPoints in profit, the stop trails at trailDistPts behind the current price, adjusting only in the favorable direction (never loosening).
Exits use strategy.exit with stop only (no limit orders).
Position Sizing: Default size is baseQtyInput (minimum 1 contract). With useMartingale enabled, size increases by martingaleFactor after a loss, capped at maxQtyInput. If resetOnWin is true, size resets to baseQtyInput after a winning trade.
Cooldown: After an exit, no new trades are allowed for cooldownBars to prevent overtrading.
Futures-Safe Volume: Volume filter accommodates markets with missing or zero volume data (e.g., futures), ensuring signals aren’t blocked unnecessarily.
Inputs Trading Session: tradeSes (e.g., "0915-1525:1234567") and orbSes (e.g., "0915-0930:1234567").
Toggles: enableLong, enableShort, useORB, useTrendMom, useTrendFilter (200-MA).
Trend/Momentum: maType (EMA/SMA), fastLen (9), slowLen (21), trendLen (200), rsiLen (14), rsiBuy (55), rsiSell (45), volMult (1.5).
Exits: slPoints (16), tpPoints (32), trailDistPts (10).
Martingale: useMartingale, baseQtyInput, maxQtyInput, martingaleFactor, resetOnWin.
Cooldown: cooldownBars (1).
Legacy (Ignored): tp1RR, tp2RR, tp3RR, tp1Pct, tp2Pct, tp3Pct, stepTrail for backward compatibility.
Usage Notes Best suited for liquid, intraday markets (e.g., futures like ES, NQ, or forex pairs).
Adjust slPoints, tpPoints, and trailDistPts to match instrument volatility.
Use useMartingale cautiously, as it increases risk after losses.
Ensure tradeSes and orbSes align with your market’s trading hours.
Alerts can be set for long/short entries and EOD flattening.
The strategy avoids lookahead and repainting, ensuring reliability in live trading.
Risk Warning
Trading involves significant risk. Backtest thoroughly and use appropriate risk management. The Martingale option can amplify losses if not carefully monitored. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
BookYourTradeHappy trade,
This is a semi-automated tool that allows you to define a trade setup in advance, including multiple exit levels. It incorporates a proven method for managing risk and reward. You specify a fixed entry price, an initial stop loss, two take profit levels, and a trailing stop loss for the remaining position—aiming to maximize gains from the trend. Alerts are included so you can step away from the screen and still be notified when any predefined price level is reached. The tool sends trade orders as market orders to your exchange or broker via webhooks. You provide the general webhook format, and the script automatically fills in the correct values.
How to Use
This tool is intended for manual day traders.
Define Entry Conditions:
Set your planned entry price and, optionally, a start and end time for trade activation. The script will not run unless the price reaches your specified level during this time window.
Set Stop Loss:
Define the stop loss as a fixed number of points from the entry price (above or below). This also determines whether the trade is long or short.
Configure Take Profits:
Specify the risk-reward ratio and position size for Take Profit 1.
Do the same for Take Profit 2.
Trailing Stop Loss:
For the remaining position after Take Profit 2, set a trailing stop loss. This is also defined in points, relative to the previous bar's closing price.
Time and Session Filters:
Set the earliest date to begin trading and the latest date by which all positions should be closed.
Optionally, define specific time windows (daily and or weekly) during which trading should be disabled. These off-times will be visually grayed out.
Define Capital and Fees:
Input the dollar amount you want to invest, along with any applicable percentage-based fees or fixed fees per trade. This is useful since different brokers, exchanges, or webhook service providers may charge in different ways (fixed, percentage, or both).
Configure Webhooks:
Enter your broker- or exchange-specific webhook for each trade event: entry, Take Profit 1, Take Profit 2, Stop Loss, and trailing exit. You’ll need to include placeholder strings in the webhook that the script will replace with actual trade values. The script provides a helper table to display these placeholders directly on the chart.
Some values you can deliver to the webhook service provider as an $ value or a deviation in percentage. For example the quantity of a trade or the take profit price. choose the correct replacement accordingly.
The script sends all orders as market orders.
Multiple Instances:
If you want to run multiple instances of this script, you must assign a unique name to each one. This ensures that the webhook service provider can correctly route trade signals to the appropriate bot.
Here is an evolution of one trade in images:
The trade setting are defined but the trade has not started

SuperTrend - Dynamic Lines and ChannelsSuperTrend Indicator: Comprehensive Description
Overview
The SuperTrend indicator is Pine Script V6 designed for TradingView to plot dynamic trend lines & channels across multiple timeframes (Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, and Yearly/All-Time) to assist traders in identifying potential support, resistance, and trend continuation levels. The script calculates trendlines based on high and low prices over specified periods, projects these trendlines forward, and includes optional reflection channels and heartlines to provide additional context for price action analysis. The indicator is highly customizable, allowing users to toggle the visibility of trendlines, projections, and heartlines for each timeframe, with a focus on the DayTrade channel, which includes unique reflection channel features.
This description provides a detailed explanation of the indicator’s features, functionality, and display, with a specific focus on the DayTrade channel’s anchoring, the role of static and dynamic channels in projecting future price action, the heartline’s potential as a volume indicator, and how traders can use the indicator for line-to-line trading strategies.
Features and Functionality
1. Dynamic Trend Channels
The SuperTrend indicator calculates trend channels for five timeframes:
DayTrade Channel: Tracks daily highs and lows, updating before 12 PM each trading day.
Weekly Channel: Tracks highs and lows over a user-selected period (1, 2, or 3 weeks).
Monthly Channel: Tracks monthly highs and lows.
Quarterly Channel: Tracks highs and lows over a user-selected period (1 or 2 quarters).
Yearly/All-Time Channel: Tracks highs and lows over a user-selected period (1 to 10 years or All Time).
Each channel consists of:
Upper Trendline: Connects the high prices of the previous and current periods.
Lower Trendline: Connects the low prices of the previous and current periods.
Projections: Extends the trendlines forward based on the trend’s slope.
Heartline: A dashed line drawn at the midpoint between the upper and lower trendlines or their projections.
DayTrade Channel Anchoring
The DayTrade channel anchors its trendlines to the high and low prices of the previous and current trading days, with updates restricted to before 12 PM to capture significant price movements during the morning session, which is often more volatile due to market openings or news events. The "Show DayTrade Trend Lines" toggle enables this channel, and after 12 PM, the trendlines and projections remain static for the rest of the trading day. This static anchoring provides a consistent reference for potential support and resistance levels, allowing traders to anticipate price reactions based on historical highs and lows from the previous day and the morning session of the current day.
The static nature of the DayTrade channel after 12 PM ensures that the trendlines and projections do not shift mid-session, providing a stable framework for traders to assess whether price action respects or breaks these levels, potentially indicating trend continuation or reversal.
Static vs. Dynamic Channels
Static Channels: Once set (e.g., after 12 PM for the DayTrade channel or at the start of a new period for other timeframes), the trendlines remain fixed until the next period begins. This static behavior allows traders to use the channels as reference levels for potential price targets or reversal points, as they are based on historical price extremes.
Dynamic Projections: The projections extend the trendlines forward, providing a visual guide for potential future price action, assuming the trend’s momentum continues. When a trendline is broken (e.g., price closes above the upper projection or below the lower projection), it may suggest a breakout or reversal, prompting traders to reassess their positions.
2. Reflection Channels (DayTrade Only)
The DayTrade channel includes optional lower and upper reflection channels, which are additional trendlines positioned symmetrically around the main channel to provide extended support and resistance zones. These are controlled by the "Show Reflection Channel" dropdown.
Lower Reflection Channel:
Position: Drawn below the lower trendline at a distance equal to the range between the upper and lower trendlines.
Projection: Extends forward as a dashed line.
Heartline: A dashed line drawn at the midpoint between the lower trendline and the lower reflection trendline, controlled by the "Show Lower Reflection Heartline" toggle.
Upper Reflection Channel:
Position: Drawn above the upper trendline at the same distance as the main channel’s range.
Projection: Extends forward as a dashed line.
Heartline: A dashed line drawn at the midpoint between the upper trendline and the upper reflection trendline, controlled by the "Show Upper Reflection Heartline" toggle.
Display Control: The "Show Reflection Channel" dropdown allows users to select:
"None": No reflection channels are shown.
"Lower": Only the lower reflection channel is shown.
"Upper": Only the upper reflection channel is shown.
"Both": Both reflection channels are shown.
Purpose: Reflection channels extend the price range analysis by providing additional levels where price may react, acting as potential targets or reversal zones after breaking the main trendlines.
3. Heartlines
Each timeframe, including the DayTrade channel and its reflection channels, can display a heartline, which is a dashed line plotted at the midpoint between the upper and lower trendlines or their projections. For the DayTrade channel:
Main DayTrade Heartline: Midpoint between the upper and lower trendlines, controlled by the "Show DayTrade Heartline" toggle.
Lower Reflection Heartline: Midpoint between the lower trendline and the lower reflection trendline, controlled by the "Show Lower Reflection Heartline" toggle.
Upper Reflection Heartline: Midpoint between the upper trendline and the upper reflection trendline, controlled by the "Show Upper Reflection Heartline" toggle.
Independent Toggles: Visibility is controlled by:
"Show DayTrade Heartline": For the main DayTrade heartline.
"Show Lower Reflection Heartline": For the lower reflection heartline.
"Show Upper Reflection Heartline": For the upper reflection heartline.
Potential Volume Indicator: The heartline represents the average price level between the high and low of a period, which may correlate with areas of high trading activity or volume concentration, as these midpoints often align with price levels where buyers and sellers have historically converged. A break above or below the heartline, especially with strong momentum, may indicate a shift in market sentiment, potentially leading to accelerated price movement in the direction of the break. However, this is an observation based on the heartline’s position, not a direct measure of volume, as the script does not incorporate volume data.
4. Alerts
The script includes alert conditions for all timeframes, triggered when a candle closes fully above the upper projection or below the lower projection. For the DayTrade channel:
Upper Trend Break: Triggers when a candle closes fully above the upper projection.
Lower Trend Break: Triggers when a candle closes fully below the lower projection.
Alerts are combined across all timeframes, so a break in any timeframe triggers a general "Upper Trend Break" or "Lower Trend Break" alert with the message: "Candle closed fully above/below one or more projection lines." Alerts fire once per bar close.
5. Customization Options
The script provides extensive customization through input settings, grouped by timeframe:
DayTrade Channel:
"Show DayTrade Trend Lines": Toggle main trendlines and projections.
"Show DayTrade Heartline": Toggle main heartline.
"Show Lower Reflection Heartline": Toggle lower reflection heartline.
"Show Upper Reflection Heartline": Toggle upper reflection heartline.
"DayTrade Channel Color": Set color for trendlines.
"DayTrade Projection Channel Color": Set color for projections.
"Heartline Color": Set color for all heartlines.
"Show Reflection Channel": Dropdown to show "None," "Lower," "Upper," or "Both" reflection channels.
Other Timeframes (Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, Yearly/All-Time):
Toggles for trendlines (e.g., "Show Weekly Trend Lines," "Show Monthly Trend Lines") and heartlines (e.g., "Show Weekly Heartline," "Show Monthly Heartline").
Period selection (e.g., "Weekly Period" for 1, 2, or 3 weeks; "Yearly Period" for 1 to 10 years or All Time).
Separate colors for trendlines (e.g., "Weekly Channel Color"), projections (e.g., "Weekly Projection Channel Color"), and heartlines (e.g., "Weekly Heartline Color").
Max Bar Difference: Limits the distance between anchor points to ensure relevance to recent price action.
Display
The indicator overlays the following elements on the chart:
Trendlines: Solid lines connecting the high and low anchor points for each timeframe, using user-specified colors (e.g., set via "DayTrade Channel Color").
Projections: Dashed lines extending from the current anchor points, indicating potential future price levels, using colors set via "DayTrade Projection Channel Color" or equivalent.
Heartlines: Dashed lines at the midpoint of each channel, using the color set via "Heartline Color" or equivalent.
Reflection Channels (DayTrade Only):
Lower reflection trendline and projection: Below the lower trendline, using the same colors as the main channel.
Upper reflection trendline and projection: Above the upper trendline, using the same colors.
Reflection heartlines: Midpoints between the main trendlines and their respective reflection trendlines, using the "Heartline Color."
Visual Clarity: Lines are only drawn if the relevant toggles (e.g., "Show DayTrade Trend Lines") are enabled and data is available. Lines are deleted when their conditions are not met to avoid clutter.
Trading Applications: Line-to-Line Trading
The SuperTrend indicator can be used to inform trading decisions by providing a framework for line-to-line trading, where traders use the trendlines, projections, and heartlines as reference points for entries, exits, and risk management. Below is a detailed explanation of how to use the DayTrade channel and its reflection channels for trading, focusing on their anchoring, static/dynamic behavior, and the heartline’s role.
1. Why DayTrade Channel Anchoring
The DayTrade channel’s anchoring to the previous day’s high/low and the current day’s high/low before 12 PM, controlled by the "Show DayTrade Trend Lines" toggle, captures significant price levels during high-volatility periods:
Previous Day High/Low: These represent key levels where price found resistance (high) or support (low) in the prior session, often acting as psychological or technical barriers in the current session.
Current Day High/Low Before 12 PM: The morning session (before 12 PM) often sees increased volatility due to market openings, news releases, or institutional activity. Anchoring to these early highs/lows ensures the channel reflects the most relevant price extremes, which are likely to influence intraday price action.
Static After 12 PM: By fixing the anchor points after 12 PM, the trendlines and projections become stable references for the afternoon session, allowing traders to anticipate price reactions at these levels without the lines shifting unexpectedly.
This anchoring makes the DayTrade channel particularly useful for intraday traders, as it provides a consistent framework based on recent price history, which can guide decisions on trend continuation or reversal.
2. Using Static Channels and Projections
The static nature of the DayTrade channel after 12 PM, enabled by "Show DayTrade Trend Lines," and the dynamic projections, set via "DayTrade Projection Channel Color," provide a structured approach to trading:
Support and Resistance:
The upper trendline and lower trendline act as dynamic support/resistance levels based on the previous and current day’s price extremes.
Traders may observe price reactions (e.g., bounces or breaks) at these levels. For example, if price approaches the lower trendline and bounces, it may indicate support, suggesting a potential long entry.
Projections as Price Targets:
The projections extend the trendlines forward, offering potential price targets if the trend continues. For instance, if price breaks above the upper trendline and continues toward the upper projection, traders might consider it a bullish continuation signal.
A candle closing fully above the upper projection or below the lower projection (triggering an alert) may indicate a breakout, prompting traders to enter in the direction of the break or reassess if the break fails.
Static Channels for Breakouts:
Because the trendlines are static after 12 PM, they serve as fixed reference points. A break above the upper trendline or its projection may suggest bullish momentum, while a break below the lower trendline or projection may indicate bearish momentum.
Traders can use these breaks to set entry points (e.g., entering a long position after a confirmed break above the upper projection) and place stop-losses below the broken level to manage risk.
3. Line-to-Line Trading Strategy
Line-to-line trading involves using the trendlines, projections, and reflection channels as sequential price targets or reversal zones:
Trading Within the Main Channel:
Long Setup: If price bounces off the lower trendline and moves toward the heartline (enabled by "Show DayTrade Heartline") or upper trendline, traders might enter a long position near the lower trendline, targeting the heartline or upper trendline for profit-taking. A stop-loss could be placed below the lower trendline to protect against a breakdown.
Short Setup: If price rejects from the upper trendline and moves toward the heartline or lower trendline, traders might enter a short position near the upper trendline, targeting the heartline or lower trendline, with a stop-loss above the upper trendline.
Trading to Reflection Channels:
If price breaks above the upper trendline and continues toward the upper reflection trendline or its projection (enabled by "Show Reflection Channel" set to "Upper" or "Both"), traders might treat this as a breakout trade, entering long with a target at the upper reflection level and a stop-loss below the upper trendline.
Similarly, a break below the lower trendline toward the lower reflection trendline or its projection (enabled by "Show Reflection Channel" set to "Lower" or "Both") could signal a short opportunity, with a target at the lower reflection level and a stop-loss above the lower trendline.
Reversal Trades:
If price reaches the upper reflection trendline and shows signs of rejection (e.g., a bearish candlestick pattern), traders might consider a short position, anticipating a move back toward the main channel’s upper trendline or heartline.
Conversely, a rejection at the lower reflection trendline could prompt a long position targeting the lower trendline or heartline.
Risk Management:
Use the heartline as a midpoint to gauge whether price is likely to continue toward the opposite trendline or reverse. For example, a failure to break above the heartline after bouncing from the lower trendline might suggest weakening bullish momentum, prompting a tighter stop-loss.
The static nature of the channels after 12 PM allows traders to set precise stop-loss and take-profit levels based on historical price levels, reducing the risk of chasing moving targets.
4. Heartline as a Volume Indicator
The heartline, controlled by toggles like "Show DayTrade Heartline," "Show Lower Reflection Heartline," and "Show Upper Reflection Heartline," may serve as an indirect proxy for areas of high trading activity:
Rationale: The heartline represents the average price between the high and low of a period, which often aligns with price levels where significant buying and selling have occurred, as these midpoints can correspond to areas of consolidation or high volume in the order book. While the script does not directly use volume data, the heartline’s position may reflect price levels where market participants have historically balanced supply and demand.
Breakout Potential: A break above or below the heartline, particularly with a strong candle (e.g., wide range or high momentum), may indicate a shift in market sentiment, potentially leading to accelerated price movement in the direction of the break. For example:
A close above the main DayTrade heartline could suggest buyers are overpowering sellers, potentially leading to a move toward the upper trendline or upper reflection channel.
A close below the heartline could indicate seller dominance, targeting the lower trendline or lower reflection channel.
Trading Application:
Traders might use heartline breaks as confirmation signals for trend continuation. For instance, after a bounce from the lower trendline, a close above the heartline could confirm bullish momentum, prompting a long entry.
The heartline can also act as a dynamic stop-loss or trailing stop level. For example, in a long trade, a trader might exit if price falls below the heartline, indicating a potential reversal.
For reflection heartlines, a break above the upper reflection heartline or below the lower reflection heartline could signal strong momentum, as these levels are further from the main channel and may require significant buying or selling pressure to breach.
5. Practical Trading Considerations
Timeframe Context: The DayTrade channel, enabled by "Show DayTrade Trend Lines," is best suited for intraday trading due to its daily anchoring and morning update behavior. Traders should consider higher timeframe channels (e.g., enabled by "Show Weekly Trend Lines" or "Show Monthly Trend Lines") for broader context, as breaks of the DayTrade channel may align with or be influenced by larger trends.
Confirmation Tools: Use additional indicators (e.g., RSI, MACD, or volume-based indicators) or candlestick patterns to confirm signals at trendlines, projections, or heartlines. The script’s alerts can help identify breakouts, but traders should verify with other technical or fundamental factors.
Risk Management: Always define risk-reward ratios before entering trades. For example, a 1:2 risk-reward ratio might involve risking a stop-loss below the lower trendline to target the heartline or upper trendline.
Market Conditions: The effectiveness of the channels and heartlines depends on market conditions (e.g., trending vs. ranging markets). In choppy markets, price may oscillate within the main channel, favoring range-bound strategies. In trending markets, breaks of projections or reflection channels may signal continuation trades.
Limitations: The indicator relies on historical price data and does not incorporate volume, news, or other external factors. Traders should use it as part of a broader strategy and avoid relying solely on its signals.

[Kpt-Ahab] Simple AlgoPilot Riskmgt and Backtest Simple AlgoPilot Riskmgt and Backtest
This script provides a compact solution for automated risk management and backtesting within TradingView.
It offers the following core functionalities:
Risk Management:
The system integrates various risk limitation mechanisms:
Percentage-based or trailing stop-loss
Maximum losing streak limitation
Maximum drawdown limitation relative to account equity
Flexible position sizing control (based on equity, fixed size, or contracts)
Dynamic repurchasing of positions ("Repurchase") during losses with adjustable size scaling
Supports multi-stage take-profit targets (TP1/TP2) and automatic stop-loss adjustment to breakeven
External Signal Processing for Backtesting:
In addition to its own moving average crossovers, the script can process external trading signals:
External signals are received via a source input variable (e.g., from other indicators or signal generators)
Positive values (+1) trigger long positions, negative values (–1) trigger short positions
This allows for easy integration of other indicator-based strategies into backtests
Additional Backtesting Features:
Selection between different MA types (SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, HMA)
Flexible time filtering (trade only within defined start and end dates)
Simulation of commission costs, slippage, and leverage
Optional alert functions for moving average crossovers
Visualization of liquidation prices and portfolio development in an integrated table
Note: This script is primarily intended for strategic backtesting and risk setting optimization.
Real-time applications should be tested with caution. All order executions, alerts, and risk calculations are purely simulation-based.
Explanation of Calculations and Logics:
1. Risk Management and Position Sizing:
The position size is calculated based on the user’s choice using three possible methods:
Percentage of Equity:
The position size is a defined fraction of the available capital, dynamically adjusted based on market price (riskPerc / close).
Fixed Size (in currency): The user defines a fixed monetary amount to be used per trade.
Contracts: A fixed number of contracts is traded regardless of the current price.
Leverage: The selected leverage multiplies the position size for margin calculations.
2. Trade Logic and Signal Triggering:
Trades can be triggered through two mechanisms:
Internal Signals:
When a fast moving average crosses above or below a slower moving average (ta.crossover, ta.crossunder). The type of moving averages (SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, HMA) can be freely selected.
External Signals:
Signals from other indicators can be received via an input source field.
+1 triggers a long entry, –1 triggers a short entry.
Position Management:
Once entered, the position is actively managed.
Multiple take-profit targets are set.
Upon reaching a profit target, the stop-loss can optionally be moved to breakeven.
3. Stop-Loss and Take-Profit Logic:
Stop-Loss Types:
Fixed Percentage Stop:
A fixed distance below/above the entry price.
Trailing Stop:
Dynamically adjusts as the trade moves into profit.
Fast Trailing Stop:
A more aggressive variant of trailing that reacts quicker to price changes.
Take-Profit Management:
Two take-profit targets (TP1 and TP2) are supported, allowing partial exits at different stages.
Remaining positions can either reach the second target or be closed by the stop-loss.
4. Repurchase Strategy ("Scaling In" on Losses):
If a position reaches a specified loss threshold (e.g., –15%), an automatic additional purchase can occur.
The position size is increased by a configurable percentage.
Repurchases happen only if an initial position is already open.
5. Backtesting Control and Filters:
Time Filters:
A trading period can be defined (start and end date).
All trades outside the selected period are ignored.
Risk Filters: Trading is paused if:
A maximum losing streak is reached.
A maximum allowed drawdown is exceeded.
6. Liquidation Calculation (Simulation Only):
The script simulates liquidation prices based on the account balance and position size.
Liquidation lines are drawn on the chart to better visualize potential risk exposure.
This is purely a visual aid — no real broker-side liquidation is performed.
Dskyz Adaptive Futures Edge (DAFE)imgur.com/a/igj9lFj
Dskyz Adaptive Futures Edge (DAFE) is a futures trading strategy designed to adapt dynamically to market volatility and price action using a blend of technical indicators. The strategy combines adaptive moving averages, optional RSI filtering, candlestick pattern recognition, and multi-timeframe trend analysis to generate long and short trade signals. It incorporates robust risk management techniques including ATR-based stop-losses and trailing stops, ensuring trades are sized and managed within sustainable risk limits.
Key Components and Logic
-Adaptive Moving Averages
Dynamic Calculation: Fast and slow Simple Moving Averages (SMAs) adapt to changing volatility, making them sensitive to high-momentum shifts and smoothing during quieter price action.
Signal Generation: Entry signals are triggered when the fast SMA crosses the slow SMA in conjunction with price direction confirmation (e.g., price above both for long positions).
-RSI Filtering (Optional)
Momentum Confirmation: The RSI filter provides momentum confirmation to avoid overextended entries. It can be toggled on or off for both long and short conditions.
User Control: Adjustable parameters such as lookback period, oversold/overbought thresholds, and enable/disable switches give full control over its influence.
-Candlestick Pattern Recognition
Engulfing Logic: Recognizes strong bullish or bearish engulfing patterns with configurable strength criteria like range and volume. Patterns are filtered by trend direction and strength for confirmation.
Signal Conflict Handling: When both bullish and bearish engulfing patterns occur within the lookback window, the strategy avoids entry to reduce whipsaws in indecisive markets.
-Multi-Timeframe Trend Filter
Higher Timeframe Filtering: Incorporates 15-minute trend direction as a macro-level filter to align intrabar trades with larger trend momentum.
Smoothed Entry Logic: Prevents entering trades that go against the broader market structure, reducing false signals in choppy or low-conviction moves.

Priority System: Users can define whether moving average signals or candlestick patterns should take priority when both are present.
Volume & Volatility Checks: Ensures sufficient market participation and action before entering a position, improving the odds of reliable follow-through.
Stop-Loss and Trailing Exit
ATR-Based Initial Stops: Dynamically adjusts stop-loss distance based on market volatility using a multiple of ATR (Average True Range), keeping risk proportional to price swings.
Trailing Stop: Protects open profits and enables winners to run by following price action at a set distance (also ATR-based).
-Cooldown Period & Minimum Bar Hold (Trade Discipline Logic)
Cooldown Bars: After an exit, the strategy imposes a mandatory pause before opening a new position.
Why: This avoids rapid-fire re-entries triggered by minor fluctuations that could lead to overtrading and degradation of profitability.
Minimum Bar Hold: A trade must be held for a minimum number of bars before it can be exited.
Why: This prevents the strategy from immediately exiting trades due to fleeting volatility spikes, which previously caused premature exits that often reversed back in favor of the original signal. This ensures trades have adequate time to develop, filtering out noise from true reversals.
-Visual Elements and Transparency Tools
Chart Overlays: Moving averages, RSI values, and trade entry/exit points are shown directly on the chart for complete visibility.
Dashboard UI: Displays critical live metrics—current position, PnL, time held, ATR values, etc.
Debug Logs: Optional toggles allow verbose condition tracking for deep inspection into why a trade occurred (or didn't), useful for both live optimization and debugging.
-Input Parameter Reference Guide
Input Name Function & Suggested Use
Use RSI Filter - Enables or disables RSI-based entry confirmation. Disable if price action alone is desired for entry decisions.
RSI Length - RSI lookback period. Lower values (e.g., 7–14) are more responsive; higher values reduce false signals.
Overbought / Oversold Levels - Used to detect exhaustion zones. E.g., avoid long entries above 70 or short entries below 30.
Use Candlestick Patterns - Enable detection of bullish/bearish engulfing patterns as trade signals. Disable to rely only on trend/MA.
Pattern Strength Thresholds (Range, Volume) - Filters out weak engulfing signals. Higher values require stronger patterns to trigger.
Use 15min Trend Filter - Adds multi-timeframe trend confirmation. Recommended for filtering entries against larger trend direction.
Fast MA - Base Length for fast adaptive moving average. Suggested: 10–25.
Slow MA - Base length for slow adaptive moving average. Suggested: 30–60.
Volatility Sensitivity Multiplier - Multiplies volatility adjustments for adaptive MA length. Higher = more reactive to volatility.
Entry Volume Filter - Filters out trades during low volume. Recommended to prevent entries in illiquid conditions.
ATR Length - Lookback period for ATR calculation. Suggested: 14.
Trailing Stop ATR Offset - Defines how far the stop-loss is from entry. 1.5–2.5 is typical for medium-volatility environments.
Trailing Stop ATR Multiplier - Determines trailing stop distance. 1.5 is tight; 3+ gives more room for trending trades.
Cooldown Bars After Exit - Prevents immediate re-entries. Suggested: 3–10 bars depending on timeframe.
Minimum Bars to Hold Trade - Ensures trades are held long enough to avoid knee-jerk exits. Suggested: 5–10 for intraday strategies.
Trading Hours (Start / End) - Sets the window of allowed trading. Prevents entries outside key session times (e.g., avoid pre-market).
Enable Logging / Debugging - Shows internal trade decision data for tuning and understanding the logic.

Heiken Ashi Supertrend ATR-SL StrategyThis indicator combines Heikin Ashi candle pattern analysis with Supertrend to generate high-probability trading signals with built-in risk management. It identifies potential entries and exits based on specific Heikin Ashi candlestick formations while providing automated ATR-based stop loss management.
Trading Logic:
The system generates long signals when a green Heikin Ashi candle forms with no bottom wick (indicating strong bullish momentum). Short signals appear when a red Heikin Ashi candle forms with no top wick (showing strong bearish momentum). The absence of wicks on these candles signals a high-conviction market move in the respective direction.
Exit signals are triggered when:
1. An opposite pattern forms (red candle with no top wick exits longs; green candle with no bottom wick exits shorts)
2. The ATR-based stop loss is hit
3. The break-even stop is activated and then hit
Technical Approach:
- Select Heiken Ashi Canldes on your Trading View chart. Entried are based on HA prices.
- Supertrend and ATR-based stop losses use real price data (not HA values) for trend determination
- ATR-based stop losses automatically adjust to market volatility
- Break-even functionality moves the stop to entry price once price moves a specified ATR multiple in your favor
Risk Management:
- Default starting capital: 1000 units
- Default risk per trade: 10% of equity (customizable in strategy settings)
- Hard Stop Loss: Set ATR multiplier (default: 2.0) for automatic stop placement
- Break Even: Configure ATR threshold (default: 1.0) to activate break-even stops
- Appropriate position sizing relative to equity and stop distance
Customization Options:
- Supertrend Settings:
- Enable/disable Supertrend filtering (trade only in confirmed trend direction)
- Adjust Factor (default: 3.0) to change sensitivity
- Modify ATR Period (default: 10) to adapt to different timeframes
Visual Elements:
- Green triangles for long entries, blue triangles for short entries
- X-marks for exits and stop loss hits
- Color-coded position background (green for long, blue for short)
- Clearly visible stop loss lines (red for hard stop, white for break-even)
- Comprehensive position information label with entry price and stop details
Implementation Notes:
The indicator tracks positions internally and maintains state across bars to properly manage stop levels. All calculations use confirmed bars only, with no repainting or lookahead bias. The system is designed for swing trading on timeframes from 1-hour and above, where Heikin Ashi patterns tend to be more reliable.
This indicator is best suited for traders looking to combine the pattern recognition strengths of Heikin Ashi candles with the trend-following capabilities of Supertrend, all while maintaining disciplined risk management through automated stops.
AO Smart Scalper – 5M Dynamic SL Edition📈 AO Signals with Fixed and Dynamic SL – Optimized for 5-Minute Charts 📉
This indicator is built for 5-minute timeframe trading, combining powerful momentum signals from the Awesome Oscillator (AO) with both Fixed and Dynamic Stop Loss (SL) levels to enhance trade management and risk control.
✅ Buy/Sell Signals:
The indicator generates clear BUY and SELL signals based on the AO crossing above or below the zero line, helping traders capture momentum shifts early.
🛑 Fixed Stop Loss:
Each trade signal comes with a Fixed SL, calculated based on the high (for shorts) or low (for longs) of the previous candle, with a customizable percentage offset. This SL is plotted with a red line, providing a clear initial risk level.
⚡ Dynamic Stop Loss: Continuous Presence, Strategic Use:
A secondary Dynamic SL line is plotted, which is continuously present on the chart. This dynamic level responds to market conditions and can serve as a trailing stop or key decision point.
💡 Recommended Use: It is recommended to actively start using the Dynamic SL once the trade has moved into profit. This allows protecting obtained profits and minimizing the risk of losses in case of a market reversal.
🛡️ Enhanced Dynamic Stop-Loss Strategy:
🔒 Initial Protection: Utilize the Fixed SL as the initial stop-loss, placed below relevant lows (for longs) or above relevant highs (for shorts), or as provided by the fixed SL indicator.
🛤️ Dynamic Tracking:
🟢 Long Trades: Once in profit, the Dynamic SL will dynamically adjust, moving upwards as higher lows are formed, effectively trailing the price and securing profits.
🔴 Short Trades: Conversely, in short trades, once in profit, the Dynamic SL will move downwards as lower highs are formed, protecting gains.
🔄 Alternatively the dynamic stop loss will follow the dynamic SL line provided by the indicator.
🚪 Exiting Trades: When the price crosses below the Dynamic SL line in a LONG trade, or above it in a SHORT trade, the recommended action is to exit the trade.
↩️ Re-entry Consideration: You may consider re-entering only if the price clearly returns above the Dynamic SL (for longs) or below it (for shorts).
⚠️ IMPORTANT - 5-Minute Strategy Guidance ⏱️
This tool is specifically optimized for the 5-minute timeframe. This approach helps filter out weak setups and maintain discipline in volatile market conditions.
✨ Additional Features:
👁️ Visual and editable SL levels

It was clarified the use of the Fixed SL, giving the option to use the one provided by the indicator, or to place it according to the price action.
Smart MA Crossover BacktesterSmart MA Crossover Backtester - Strategy Overview
Strategy Name: Smart MA Crossover Backtester
Published on: TradingView
Applicable Markets: Works well on crypto (tested profitably on ETH)
Strategy Concept
The Smart MA Crossover Backtester is an improved Moving Average (MA) crossover strategy that incorporates a trend filter and an ATR-based stop loss & take profit mechanism for better risk management. It aims to capture trends efficiently while reducing false signals by only trading in the direction of the long-term trend.
Core Components & Logic
Moving Averages (MA) for Entry Signals
Fast Moving Average (9-period SMA)
Slow Moving Average (21-period SMA)
A trade signal is generated when the fast MA crosses the slow MA.
Trend Filter (200-period SMA)
Only enters long positions if price is above the 200-period SMA (bullish trend).
Only enters short positions if price is below the 200-period SMA (bearish trend).
This helps in avoiding counter-trend trades, reducing whipsaws.
ATR-Based Stop Loss & Take Profit
Uses the Average True Range (ATR) with a multiplier of 2 to calculate stop loss.
Risk-Reward Ratio = 1:2 (Take profit is set at 2x ATR).
This ensures dynamic stop loss and take profit levels based on market volatility.
Trading Rules
✅ Long Entry (Buy Signal):
Fast MA (9) crosses above Slow MA (21)
Price is above the 200 MA (bullish trend filter active)
Stop Loss: Below entry price by 2× ATR
Take Profit: Above entry price by 4× ATR
✅ Short Entry (Sell Signal):
Fast MA (9) crosses below Slow MA (21)
Price is below the 200 MA (bearish trend filter active)
Stop Loss: Above entry price by 2× ATR
Take Profit: Below entry price by 4× ATR
Why This Strategy Works Well for Crypto (ETH)?
🔹 Crypto markets are highly volatile – ATR-based stop loss adapts dynamically to market conditions.
🔹 Long-term trend filter (200 MA) ensures trading in the dominant direction, reducing false signals.
🔹 Risk-reward ratio of 1:2 allows for profitable trades even with a lower win rate.
This strategy has been tested on Ethereum (ETH) and has shown profitable performance, making it a strong choice for crypto traders looking for trend-following setups with solid risk management. 🚀
Breaks and Retests - Free990Strategy Description: "Breaks and Retests - Free990"
The "Breaks and Retests - Free990" strategy is based on identifying breakout and retest opportunities for potential entries in both long and short trades. The idea is to detect price breakouts above resistance levels or below support levels, and subsequently identify retests that confirm the breakout levels. The strategy offers an automated approach to enter trades after a breakout followed by a retest, which serves as a confirmation of trend continuation.
Key Components:
Support and Resistance Detection:
The strategy calculates pivot levels based on historical price movements to define support and resistance areas. A lookback range is used to determine these key levels.
Breakouts and Retests:
The system identifies when a breakout occurs above a resistance level or below a support level.
It then waits for a retest of the previously broken level as confirmation, which is often a better entry opportunity.
Trade Direction Selection:
Users can choose between "Long Only," "Short Only," or "Both" directions for trading based on their market view.
Stop Loss and Trailing Stop:
An initial stop loss is placed at a defined percentage away from the entry.
The trailing stop loss is activated after the position gains a specified percentage in profit.
Long Entry:
A long entry is triggered if the price breaks above a resistance level and subsequently retests that level successfully.
The entry condition checks if the breakout was confirmed and if a retest was valid.
The long entry is only executed if the user-selected direction is either "Long Only" or "Both."
Short Entry:
A short entry is triggered if the price breaks below a support level and subsequently retests that level.
The short entry is only executed if the user-selected direction is either "Short Only" or "Both."
sell_condition checks whether the support has been broken and whether the retest condition is valid.
An initial stop loss is placed when the trade is opened to limit the risk if the trade moves against the position.
The stop loss is calculated based on a user-defined percentage (stop_loss_percent) of the entry price.
pinescript
Copy code
stop_loss_price := strategy.position_avg_price * (1 - stop_loss_percent / 100)
For long positions, the stop loss is placed below the entry price.
For short positions, the stop loss is placed above the entry price.
Trailing Stop:
When a position achieves a certain profit threshold (profit_threshold_percent), the trailing stop mechanism is activated.
For long positions, the trailing stop follows the highest price reached, ensuring that some profit is locked in if the price reverses.
For short positions, the trailing stop follows the lowest price reached.
Code Logic for Trailing Stop:
Exit Execution:
The strategy exits the position when the price hits the calculated stop loss level.
This includes both the initial stop loss and the trailing stop that adjusts as the trade progresses.
Code Logic for Exit:
Summary:
Breaks and Retests - Free990 uses support and resistance levels to identify breakouts, followed by retests for confirmation.
Entry Points: Triggered when a breakout is confirmed and a retest occurs, for both long and short trades.
Exit Points:
Initial Stop Loss: Limits risk for both long and short trades.
Trailing Stop Loss: Locks in profits as the price moves in favor of the position.
This strategy aims to capture the momentum after breakouts and minimize losses through effective use of stop loss and trailing stops. It gives the flexibility of selecting trade direction and ensures trades are taken with confirmation through the retest, which helps to reduce false breakouts.

Crypto Volatility Bitcoin Correlation Strategy Description:
The Crypto Volatility Bitcoin Correlation Strategy is designed to leverage market volatility specifically in Bitcoin (BTC) using a combination of volatility indicators and trend-following techniques. This strategy utilizes the VIXFix (a volatility indicator adapted for crypto markets) and the BVOL7D (Bitcoin 7-Day Volatility Index from BitMEX) to identify periods of high volatility, while confirming trends with the Exponential Moving Average (EMA). These components work together to offer a comprehensive system that traders can use to enter positions when volatility and trends are aligned in their favor.
Key Features:
VIXFix (Volatility Index for Crypto Markets): This indicator measures the highest price of Bitcoin over a set period and compares it with the current low price to gauge market volatility. A rise in VIXFix indicates increasing market volatility, signaling that large price movements could occur.
BVOL7D (Bitcoin 7-Day Volatility Index): This volatility index, provided by BitMEX, measures the volatility of Bitcoin over the past 7 days. It helps traders monitor the recent volatility trend in the market, particularly useful when making short-term trading decisions.
Exponential Moving Average (EMA): The 50-period EMA acts as a trend indicator. When the price is above the EMA, it suggests the market is in an uptrend, and when the price is below the EMA, it suggests a downtrend.
How It Works:
Long Entry: A long position is triggered when both the VIXFix and BVOL7D indicators are rising, signaling increased volatility, and the price is above the 50-period EMA, confirming that the market is trending upward.
Exit: The strategy exits the position when the price crosses below the 50-period EMA, which signals a potential weakening of the uptrend and a decrease in volatility.
This strategy ensures that traders only enter positions when the volatility aligns with a clear trend, minimizing the risk of entering trades during periods of market uncertainty.
Testing and Timeframe:
This strategy has been tested on Bitcoin using the daily timeframe, which provides a longer-term perspective on market trends and volatility. However, users can adjust the timeframe according to their trading preferences. It is crucial to note that this strategy does not include comprehensive risk management, aside from the exit condition when the price crosses below the EMA. Users are strongly advised to implement their own risk management techniques, such as setting appropriate stop-loss levels, to safeguard their positions during high volatility periods.
Utility:
The Crypto Volatility Bitcoin Correlation Strategy is particularly well-suited for traders who aim to capitalize on the high volatility often seen in the Bitcoin market. By combining volatility measurements (VIXFix and BVOL7D) with a trend-following mechanism (EMA), this strategy helps identify optimal moments for entering and exiting trades. This approach ensures that traders participate in potentially profitable market moves while minimizing exposure during times of uncertainty.
Use Cases:
Volatility-Based Entries: Traders looking to take advantage of market volatility spikes will find this strategy useful for timing entry points during market swings.
Trend Confirmation: By using the EMA as a confirmation tool, traders can avoid entering trades that go against the trend, which can result in significant losses during volatile market conditions.
Risk Management: While the strategy exits when price falls below the EMA, it is important to recognize that this is not a full risk management system. Traders should use caution and integrate additional risk measures, such as stop-losses and position sizing, to better manage potential losses.
How to Use:
Step 1: Monitor the VIXFix and BVOL7D indicators. When both are rising and the Bitcoin price is above the EMA, the strategy will trigger a long entry, indicating that the market is experiencing increased volatility with a confirmed uptrend.
Step 2: Exit the position when the price drops below the 50-period EMA, signaling that the trend may be reversing or weakening, reducing the likelihood of continued upward price movement.
This strategy is open-source and is intended to help traders navigate volatile market conditions, particularly in Bitcoin, using proven indicators for volatility and trend confirmation.
Risk Disclaimer:
This strategy has been tested on the daily timeframe of Bitcoin, but users should be aware that it does not include built-in risk management except for the below-EMA exit condition. Users should be extremely cautious when using this strategy and are encouraged to implement their own risk management, such as using stop-losses, position sizing, and setting appropriate limits. Trading involves significant risk, and this strategy does not guarantee profits or prevent losses. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always test any strategy in a demo environment before applying it to live markets.
Fractal Breakout Trend Following StrategyOverview
The Fractal Breakout Trend Following Strategy is a trend-following system which utilizes the Willams Fractals and Alligator to execute the long trades on the fractal's breakouts which have a high probability to be the new uptrend phase beginning. This system also uses the normalized Average True Range indicator to filter trades after a large moves, because it's more likely to see the trend continuation after a consolidation period. Strategy can execute only long trades.
Unique Features
Trend and volatility filtering system: Strategy uses Williams Alligator to filter the counter-trend fractals breakouts and normalized Average True Range to avoid the trades after large moves, when volatility is high
Configurable Trading Periods: Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Flexible Risk Management: Users can choose the stop-loss percent (by default = 3%) for trades, but strategy also has the dynamic stop-loss level using down fractals.
Methodology
The strategy places stop order at the last valid fractal breakout level. Validity of this fractal is defined by the Williams Alligator indicator. If at the moment of time when price breaking the last fractal price is higher than Alligator's teeth line (8 period SMA shifted 5 bars in the future) this is a valid breakout. Moreover strategy has the additional volatility filtering system using normalized ATR. It calculates the average normalized ATR for last user-defined number of bars and if this value lower than the user-defined threshold value the long trade is executed.
When trade is opened, script places the stop loss at the price higher of two levels: user defined stop-loss from the position entry price or down fractal validation level. The down fractal is valid with the rule, opposite as the up fractal validation. Price shall break to the downside the last down fractal below the Willians Alligator's teeth line.
Strategy has no fixed take profit. Exit level changes with the down fractal validation level. If price is in strong uptrend trade is going to be active until last down fractal is not valid. Strategy closes trade when price hits the down fractal validation level.
Risk Management
The strategy employs a combined approach to risk management:
It allows positions to ride the trend as long as the price continues to move favorably, aiming to capture significant price movements. It features a user-defined stop-loss parameter to mitigate risks based on individual risk tolerance. By default, this stop-loss is set to a 3% drop from the entry point, but it can be adjusted according to the trader's preferences.
Justification of Methodology
This strategy leverages Williams Fractals to open long trade when price has broken the key resistance level to the upside. This resistance level is the last up fractal and is shall be broken above the Williams Alligator's teeth line to be qualified as the valid breakout according to this strategy. The Alligator filtering increases the probability to avoid the false breakouts against the current trend.
Moreover strategy has an additional filter using Average True Range(ATR) indicator. If average value of ATR for the last user-defined number of bars is lower than user-defined threshold strategy can open the long trade according to open trade condition above. The logic here is following: we want to open trades after period of price consolidation inside the range because before and after a big move price is more likely to be in sideways, but we need a trend move to have a profit.
Another one important feature is how the exit condition is defined. On the one hand, strategy has the user-defined stop-loss (3% below the entry price by default). It's made to give users the opportunity to restrict their losses according to their risk-tolerance. On the other hand, strategy utilizes the dynamic exit level which is defined by down fractal activation. If we assume the breaking up fractal is the beginning of the uptrend, breaking down fractal can be the start of downtrend phase. We don't want to be in long trade if there is a high probability of reversal to the downside. This approach helps to not keep open trade if trend is not developing and hold it if price continues going up.

Momentum Alligator 4h Bitcoin StrategyOverview
The Momentum Alligator 4h Bitcoin Strategy is a trend-following trading system that operates on dual time frames. It utilizes the 1D Williams Alligator indicator to identify the prevailing major price trend and seeks trading opportunities on the 4-hour (4h) time frame when the momentum is turning up. The strategy is designed to close trades if the trend fails to develop or holding position if price continues increasing without any significant correction. Note that this strategy is specifically tailored for the 4-hour time frame.
Unique Features
2-layers market noise filtering system: Trades are only initiated in the direction of the 1D trend, determined by the Williams Alligator indicator. This higher time frame confirmation filters out minor trade signals, focusing on more substantial opportunities. At the same time, strategy has additional filter on 4h time frame with Awesome Oscillator which is showing the current price momentum.
Flexible Risk Management: The strategy exclusively opens long positions, resulting in fewer trades during bear markets. It incorporates a dynamic stop-loss mechanism, which can either follow the jaw line of the 4h Alligator or a user-defined fixed stop-loss. This flexibility helps manage risk and avoid non-trending markets.
Methodology
The strategy initiates a long position when the d-line of Stochastic RSI crosses up it's k-line. It means that there is a high probability that price momentum reversed from down to up. To avoid overtrading in potentially choppy markets, it skips the next two trades following a winning trade, anticipating sideways movement after a significant price surge.
This strategy has two layers trades filtering system: 4h and 1D time frames. The first one is awesome oscillator. It shall be increasing and value has to be higher than it's 5-period SMA. This is an additional confirmation that long trade is opened in the direction of the current momentum. As it was mentioned above, all entry signals are validated against the 1D Williams Alligator indicator. A trade is only opened if the price is above all three lines of the 1D Alligator, ensuring alignment with the major trend.
A trade is closed if the price hits the 4h jaw line of the Alligator or reaches the user-defined stop-loss level.
Risk Management
The strategy employs a combined approach to risk management:
It allows positions to ride the trend as long as the price continues to move favorably, aiming to capture significant price movements. It features a user-defined stop-loss parameter to mitigate risks based on individual risk tolerance. By default, this stop-loss is set to a 2% drop from the entry point, but it can be adjusted according to the trader's preferences.
Justification of Methodology
This strategy leverages Stochastic RSI on 4h time frame to open long trade when momentum started reversing to the upside. On the one hand, Stochastic RSI is one of the most sensitive indicator, which allows to react fast on the potential trend reversal. On the other hand, this indicator can be too sensitive and provide a lot of false trend changing signals. To eliminate this weakness we use two-layers trades filtering system.
The first layer is the 4h Awesome oscillator. This is less sensitive momentum indicator. Usually it starts increasing when price has already passed significant distance from the actual reversal point. The strategy opens long trade only is Awesome oscillator is increasing and above it's 5-period SMA. This approach increases the probability to filter the false signals during the choppy market or if the reversal is false.
The second layer filter is the Williams Alligator indicator on 1D time frame. The 1D Alligator serves as a filter for identifying the primary trend and increases probability to avoid the trades with low potential because trading against major trend usually is more risky. It's much better to catch the trend continuation than local bounce.
Last but not least feature of this strategy is close trades condition. It uses the flexible approach. First of all, user can set up the fixed stop-loss according to his own risk-tolerance, by default this value is 2% of price movement. It restricts the potential loss at the moment when trade has just been opened. Moreover strategy utilizes the 4h Williams Alligator's jaw line to exit the trade. If price fell below it trade is closed. This approach helps to not keep open trade if trend is not developing and hold it if price continues going up.
Backtest Results:
Operating window: Date range of backtests is 2021.01.01 - 2024.05.01. It is chosen to let the strategy to close all opened positions.

Range Average Retest Model [LuxAlgo]The Range Average Retest Model tool highlights setups from the range average retest entry model, a model using the retest of the average between two opposite swing points as an entry.
This tool uses long-term volatility coupled with user-defined multipliers to filter out swing areas and set take profit and stop loss levels for all trades.
Key features include:
Draw up to 165 swing areas and their associated trades
Filter out swing areas using Pivot Length , Selection Mode and Threshold parameters
Filter out trades with Maximum Distance and Minimum Distance parameters
Enable or disable swing areas and select default colors
Enable or disable overlapping trades and change the default colors for Take Profit and Stop Loss zones
🔶 USAGE
The "Range Average Retest Model" is an entry model that enters a position when the price retests the average made between two swing points. Users can determine the period of the detected swing points from the "Pivot Length" setting.
The conditions for long or short trades, regardless of whether the swing area is bullish or bearish, are as follows:
Long positions: the current bar close is below the swing area average and the last bar close was above it.
Short positions: the current bar close is above the swing area average price and the last bar close was below it.
Each trade is displayed on the chart with a line connecting it to its swing area highlighting the range average, a green area for the take profit, and a red area for the stop loss.
Both the Take Profit and Stop Loss levels are calculated by applying your own multiplier in the settings panel to the long-term volatility measure, in this case, the average true range over the last 200 bars.
Trades will remain open until they reach either the Stop Loss or Take Profit price levels.
🔹 Filtering Swing Areas
The daily chart of the Nasdaq-100 futures (NQ) with pivot length 2 and bullish selection mode: it only detects bullish swing areas, but they are smaller and more numerous.
Traders can manipulate the behavior of the swing areas from the settings panel.
The Selection mode will filter areas by bias: it will detect bullish areas, bearish areas, or both.
The Threshold parameter is applied to the long-term volatility to filter out areas where the average prices are too close together; the higher the value, the greater the difference between the average prices must be.
🔹 Trades
3-minute chart of the Nasdaq-100 futures (NQ) with pivot length 5, bearish selection mode maximum distance 4, and stop loss 2: many trades detected with very asymmetric risk/reward.
The behavior of the trades is also manipulated from the settings panel.
The maximum and minimum distance parameters specify the number of bars a trade must be away from a swing area.
The Take Profit and Stop Loss parameters are applied to the long-term volatility to obtain their respective price levels.
🔹 Overlapping Trades
Same chart as before, but with overlapping trades: messy, right?
By default the tool does not show overlapping trades, this allows for a cleaner chart.
In the settings panel traders can enable overlapping mode, in which case the tool will show all available trades.
Traders must be aware that the chart can be very crowded.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Swings
Pivot Length: How many bars are used to confirm a swing point. The larger this parameter is, the larger and fewer swing areas will be detected.
Selection Mode: Swing area detection mode, detect only bullish swings, only bearish swings, or both.
Threshold: Swing area comparator. This threshold is multiplied by a measure of volatility (average true range over the last 200 bars), for a new swing area to be detected it must have an average level that is sufficiently distant from the average level of any untouched swing area, this parameter controls that distance.
🔹 Trades
Maximum distance: Maximum distance allowed between a swing area and a trade.
Minimum distance: Minimum distance allowed between a swing area and a trade.
Take profit: The size of the take profit - this threshold is multiplied by a measure of volatility (the average true range over the last 200 bars).
Stop loss: The size of the stop-loss: this threshold is multiplied by a measure of volatility (the average true range over the last 200 bars).
MACD of Relative Strenght StrategyMACD Relative Strenght Strategy :
INTRODUCTION :
This strategy is based on two well-known indicators: MACD and Relative Strenght (RS). By coupling them, we obtain powerful buy signals. In fact, the special feature of this strategy is that it creates an indicator from an indicator. Thus, we construct a MACD whose source is the value of the RS. The strategy only takes buy signals, ignoring SHORT signals as they are mostly losers. There's also a money management method enabling us to reinvest part of the profits or reduce the size of orders in the event of substantial losses.
RELATIVE STRENGHT :
RS is an indicator that measures the anomaly between momentum and the assumption of market efficiency. It is used by professionals and is one of the most robust indicators. The idea is to own assets that do better than average, based on their past performance. We calculate RS using this formula :
RS = close/highest_high(RS_Length)
Where highest_high(RS_Length) = highest value of the high over a user-defined time period (which is the RS_Length).
We can thus situate the current price in relation to its highest price over this user-defined period.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence - Divergence) :
This is one of the best-known indicators, measuring the distance between two exponential moving averages : one fast and one slower. A wide distance indicates fast momentum and vice versa. We'll plot the value of this distance and call this line macdline. The MACD uses a third moving average with a lower period than the first two. This last moving average will give a signal when it crosses the macdline. It is therefore constructed using the values of the macdline as its source.
It's important to note that the first two MAs are constructed using RS values as their source. So we've just built an indicator of an indicator. This kind of method is very powerful because it is rarely used and brings value to the strategy.
PARAMETERS :
RS Length : Relative Strength length i.e. the number of candles back to find the highest high and compare the current price with this high. Default is 300.
MACD Fast Length : Relative Strength fast EMA length used to plot the MACD. Default is 14.
MACD Slow Length : Relative Strength slow EMA length used to plot the MACD. Default is 26.
MACD Signal Smoothing : Macdline SMA length used to plot the MACD. Default is 10.
Max risk per trade (in %) : The maximum loss a trade can incur (in percentage of the trade value). Default is 8%.
Fixed Ratio : This is the amount of gain or loss at which the order quantity is changed. Default is 400, meaning that for each $400 gain or loss, the order size is increased or decreased by a user-selected amount.
Increasing Order Amount : This is the amount to be added to or subtracted from orders when the fixed ratio is reached. The default is $200, which means that for every $400 gain, $200 is reinvested in the strategy. On the other hand, for every $400 loss, the order size is reduced by $200.
Initial capital : $1000
Fees : Interactive Broker fees apply to this strategy. They are set at 0.18% of the trade value.
Slippage : 3 ticks or $0.03 per trade. Corresponds to the latency time between the moment the signal is received and the moment the order is executed by the broker.
Important : A bot has been used to test the different parameters and determine which ones maximize return while limiting drawdown. This strategy is the most optimal on BITSTAMP:ETHUSD in 8h timeframe with the parameters set by default.
ENTER RULES :
The entry rules are very simple : we open a long position when the MACD value turns positive. You are therefore LONG when the MACD is green.
EXIT RULES :
We exit a position (whether losing or winning) when the MACD becomes negative, i.e. turns red.
RISK MANAGEMENT :
This strategy can incur losses, so it's important to manage our risks well. If the position is losing and has incurred a loss of -8%, our stop loss is activated to limit losses.
MONEY MANAGEMENT :
The fixed ratio method was used to manage our gains and losses. For each gain of an amount equal to the value of the fixed ratio, we increase the order size by a value defined by the user in the "Increasing order amount" parameter. Similarly, each time we lose an amount equal to the value of the fixed ratio, we decrease the order size by the same user-defined value. This strategy increases both performance and drawdown.
Enjoy the strategy and don't forget to take the trade :)
MFR RangeHello Traders!
You requested it for many months, we are finally making our proprietary Range available to all.
First of all, how should a trader consider a Range in general:
In trading, a "range" refers to a specific price interval or zone within which an asset's price moves or consolidates for a period of time. Ranges are characterized by relatively horizontal or sideways price movements, where the price oscillates between a defined upper and lower boundary. Traders often use ranges to identify potential trading opportunities, manage risk, and make trading decisions.
Here's how ranges are used in trading:
1. Range Identification:
Traders identify ranges by observing price charts and looking for periods where the price appears to be moving horizontally with clear upper and lower boundaries.
Common range patterns include rectangles, channels, and horizontal consolidations.
2. Range Trading Strategies:
Range trading strategies aim to profit from price movements within the established range. Traders typically use two main approaches within a range:
Buying near the range's lower boundary: Traders buy when the price approaches the lower end of the range, anticipating a bounce or reversal towards the upper boundary. This is often referred to as "buying support."
Selling near the range's upper boundary: Traders sell when the price approaches the upper end of the range, anticipating a pullback or reversal towards the lower boundary. This is known as "selling resistance."
3. Risk Management:
Stop-loss orders are crucial when trading ranges. Traders set stop-loss orders just outside the range's boundaries to limit potential losses if the price breaks out of the range unpredictably.
4. Range Breakouts:
Ranges do not last indefinitely, and eventually, the price may break out of the range, leading to a significant price movement.
Traders often look for breakout patterns and use breakout trading strategies to capitalize on the potential for a strong price movement after the range is broken.
5. Volatility Consideration:
Some traders may assess the volatility within the range. If the price oscillates within the range with high volatility, they may consider trading shorter timeframes for smaller, quicker profits.
Lower volatility may prompt longer-term traders to take positions within the range, expecting a slower, more controlled price movement.
6. Time Frame Analysis:
Traders may analyze the time frame in which the range has developed, in our case MFR range are based solely on the Daily timeframe.
7. Confirmation Indicators:
Traders often use technical indicators like Relative Strength Index (RSI), Moving Averages, or Bollinger Bands to confirm range trading signals and assess overbought or oversold conditions.
8. Range Boundaries as Support and Resistance:
Once a range is identified, its upper and lower boundaries can serve as key support and resistance levels even after the range is broken. Traders pay attention to these levels for future trading decisions.
9. Range Expansion:
Some traders look for signs of range expansion, where the price starts to break out or trend strongly. This can signal the end of a range-bound market and a transition to a trending market.
It's important to note that while range trading can be profitable, it requires careful analysis and risk management. Traders must be prepared for the possibility of a breakout that can result in significant losses if they are on the wrong side of the trade. Additionally, market conditions can change, and ranges can evolve into trends or other patterns, so traders need to adapt their strategies accordingly.
What is specific to MFR range?
This script calculates and plots a trading range on a daily timeframe based on historical price data. Based on Benoit Mandelbrot and Edgar E. Peters publications on Range, we run a set of calculations over a defined period. The script will define those to generate the "Range High" and "Range Low". These values are used to define the upper and lower bounds of the trading range.
In short, how could I use this script?
A trader could use the Range to find overbought or oversold points to enter a position. The Lower Range being the price to buy an asset and the Upper Range being the place to sell an asset. This is recommended to be implemented only when our other indication called Trend matches the strategy: buy when the trend is bullish or short when the trend is bearish.
It's important to note that while Range is a useful tool, it should not be relied upon solely for making trading decisions. It's recommended to use it in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and consider other factors such as market conditions, risk management, and fundamental analysis. Remember that the Range indicator is just one tool among many, and it's important to consider other factors such as volume, momentum, volatility, and overall market conditions when making trading decisions. Additionally, using stop-loss orders and proper risk management techniques is crucial to mitigate potential losses.
