Best Scripts of the Month — 2020.04

1 במאי 2020

We present you with our selection from the open-source indicators published this month on TradingView. These scripts are the ones that caught our attention while analyzing the two thousand or so scripts published each month in TradingView's Public Library, the greatest repository of indicators in the world. If we missed any, please let us know. Most of these scripts were selected on the basis of their potential to be useful in trading; others will be more useful to Pine coders.

This superb body of work constitutes unmistakable proof of the liveliness, ingenuity, and relentless creativity of the generous traders/programmers who not only give their time to write amazing scripts, but share their code with the world. Kudos to these very special humans.

Enjoy!

Gap Filling Strategy
alexgrover presents a gap-based strategy with his usual rigor. It's refreshing to see an author who understands backtesting and the inherent incompleteness of single test runs presented on a single symbol/timeframe pair with a given set of parameters. Accordingly, Alex goes through the results of a few different test runs with the objective of, rather than finding the one with the splashiest results, understanding the characteristics of his strategy. We wish more strategies were presented this way by authors.
