Risk management
For calculate the amount of the position you will use just a small percent of your initial capital for the strategy and you will use the atr stop loss for this.
Example: You have 1000 usd and you just want to risk 2,5% of your account, there is a long signal at price of 20,000 usd. The stop loss price from atr stop loss is 19,000. You calculate the distance in percent between 20,000 and 19,000. In this case, that distance would be of 5,0%. Then, you calculate your position by this way: (initial or current capital * risk per trade of your account) / (stop loss distance).
Using these values on the formula: (1000*2,5%)/(5,0%) = 500usd. It means, you have to use 500 usd for risking 2.5% of your account.
We will use this risk management for apply compound interest.
Script functions
Inside of settings, you will find some utilities for display atr stop loss, supertrend or positions.
You will find the settings for risk management at the end of the script if you want to change something. But rebember, do not change values from indicators, the idea is to not over optimize the strategy.
If you want to change the initial capital for backtest the strategy, go to properties, and also enter the commisions of your exchange and slippage for more realistic results.
Signals meanings:
L for long position. CL for close long position.
S for short position. CS for close short position.
Tp for take profit (it also appears when the position is closed due to stop loss, this due to the script uses two kind of positions)
Exit due to break even or due to stop loss
Some things to consider
USE UNDER YOUR OWN RISK. PAST RESULTS DO NOT REPRESENT THE FUTURE.
DEPENDING OF % ACCOUNT RISK PER TRADE, YOU COULD REQUIRE LEVERAGE FOR OPEN SOME POSITIONS, SO PLEASE, BE CAREFULL AND USE CORRECTLY THE RISK MANAGEMENT
The amount of trades closed in the backtest are not exactly the real ones. If you want to know the real ones, go to settings and change % of trade for first take profit to 100 for getting the real ones. In the backtest, the real amount of opened trades was of 194.
Indicators used:
This is the fist strategy that I publish in tradingview, I will be glad with you for any suggestion, support or advice for future scripts. Do not doubt in make any question you have and if you liked this content, leave a boost. I plan to bring more strategies and useful content for you!

New filter for the strategy: Rsi Sometimes some positions could be closed due to breakeven and then we loose a trend move. For this reason I decided to add this filter for re enter on the movement:
- If close is still in a Up Trend (this is given by the SuperTrend indicator), Rsi crosses above oversold zone and the previous position was closed by breakeven, we enter into a long position again, using a new stop loss given by atr stoploss and also a breakeven/take profit of 0.75 points of risk/reward
- If close is still in a Down Trend (this is given by the SuperTrend indicator), Rsi crosses under overbought zone and the previous position was closed by breakeven, we enter into a short position again, using a new stop loss given by atr stoploss and also a breakeven/take profit of 0.75 points of risk/reward
Strategy as an indicator:
- Green and Red triangles added as long or short signals
- Green point added for showing first Take profit and Break even price
- White point added for showing Stop loss price
Do not forget you can deactivate trades on chart in style options for getting a cleaner view of the strategy.
