Long term MA-Trailing-Stop strategy with Adjustable Signal Strength to beat Buy&Hold strategy
None of the strategies that I tested can beat the long term Buy&Hold strategy. That's the reason why I wrote this strategy.
Purpose: beat Buy&Hold strategy with around 10 trades. 100% capitalize sold trade into new trade.
My buy strategy is triggered by the fast buy EMA (blue) crossing over the slow buy SMA curve (orange) and the fast buy EMA has a certain up strength.
My sell strategy is triggered by either one of these conditions:
the EMA(6) of the close value is crossing under the trailing stop value (green) or
the fast sell EMA (navy) is crossing under the slow sell SMA curve (red) and the fast sell EMA has a certain down strength.
The trailing stop value (green) is set to a multiple of the ATR(15) value.
ATR(15) is the SMA(15) value of the difference between the high and low values.
The scripts shows a lot of graphical information:
The close value is shown in light-green. When the close value is lower then the buy value, the close value is shown in light-red. This way it is possible to evaluate the virtual losses during the trade.
the trailing stop value is shown in dark-green. When the sell value is lower then the buy value, the last color of the trade will be red (best viewed when zoomed)(in the example, there are 2 trades that end in gain and 2 in loss (red line at end))
the EMA and SMA values for both buy and sell signals are shown as a line
the buy and sell(close) signals are labeled in blue
How to use this strategy?
Every stock has it's own "DNA", so first thing to do is tune the right parameters to get the best strategy values voor EMA , SMA, Strength for both buy and sell and the Trailing Stop (#ATR).
Look in the strategy tester overview to optimize the values Percent Profitable and Net Profit (using the strategy settings icon, you can increase/decrease the parameters)
Then keep using these parameters for future buy/sell signals only for that particular stock.
Do the same for other stocks.
Important : optimizing these parameters is no guarantee for future winning trades!
Here are the parameters:
Fast EMA Buy: buy trigger when Fast EMA Buy crosses over the Slow SMA Buy value (use values between 10-20)
Slow SMA Buy: buy trigger when Fast EMA Buy crosses over the Slow SMA Buy value (use values between 30-100)
Minimum Buy Strength: minimum upward trend value of the Fast SMA Buy value (directional coefficient)(use values between 0-120)
Fast EMA Sell: sell trigger when Fast EMA Sell crosses under the Slow SMA Sell value (use values between 10-20)
Slow SMA Sell: sell trigger when Fast EMA Sell crosses under the Slow SMA Sell value (use values between 30-100)
Minimum Sell Strength: minimum downward trend value of the Fast SMA Sell value (directional coefficient)(use values between 0-120)
Trailing Stop (#ATR): the trailing stop value as a multiple of the ATR(15) value (use values between 2-20)
Example parameters for different stocks (Start capital: 1000, Order=100% of equity, Period 1/1/2005 to now) compared to the Buy&Hold Strategy(=do nothing):
BEKB(Bekaert): EMA-Buy=12, SMA-Buy=44, Strength-Buy=65, EMA-Sell=12, SMA-Sell=55, Strength-Sell=120, Stop#ATR=20
NetProfit: 996%, #Trades: 6, %Profitable: 83%, Buy&HoldProfit: 78%
BAR(Barco): EMA-Buy=16, SMA-Buy=80, Strength-Buy=44, EMA-Sell=12, SMA-Sell=45, Strength-Sell=82, Stop#ATR=9
NetProfit: 385%, #Trades: 7, %Profitable: 71%, Buy&HoldProfit: 55%
AAPL(Apple): EMA-Buy=12, SMA-Buy=45, Strength-Buy=40, EMA-Sell=19, SMA-Sell=45, Strength-Sell=106, Stop#ATR=8

About INVERSE FISHER TRANSFORM:
The purpose of technical indicators is to help with your timing decisions to buy or
sell. Hopefully, the signals are clear and unequivocal. However, more often than
not your decision to pull the trigger is accompanied by crossing your fingers.
Even if you have placed only a few trades you know the drill.
In this article I will show you a way to make your oscillator-type indicators make
clear black-or-white indication of the time to buy or sell. I will do this by using the
Inverse Fisher Transform to alter the Probability Distribution Function ( PDF ) of
your indicators. In the past12 I have noted that the PDF of price and indicators do
not have a Gaussian, or Normal, probability distribution. A Gaussian PDF is the
familiar bell-shaped curve where the long “tails” mean that wide deviations from
the mean occur with relatively low probability. The Fisher Transform can be
applied to almost any normalized data set to make the resulting PDF nearly
Gaussian, with the result that the turning points are sharply peaked and easy to
identify. The Fisher Transform is defined by the equation
1)
Whereas the Fisher Transform is expansive, the Inverse Fisher Transform is
compressive. The Inverse Fisher Transform is found by solving equation 1 for x
in terms of y. The Inverse Fisher Transform is:
2)
The transfer response of the Inverse Fisher Transform is shown in Figure 1. If
the input falls between –0.5 and +0.5, the output is nearly the same as the input.
For larger absolute values (say, larger than 2), the output is compressed to be no
larger than unity . The result of using the Inverse Fisher Transform is that the
output has a very high probability of being either +1 or –1. This bipolar
probability distribution makes the Inverse Fisher Transform ideal for generating
an indicator that provides clear buy and sell signals.

DepthHouse - Moving Average ChannelsThe indicator Moving Average Channels was created for experimental purposes due to the parabolic moves BTC has made in the recent past.
How it works:
The basis, or center line, is a standard moving average that is set by the user.
The bands are then a customizable percentage of the basis.
Which based on the settings, could serve as possible support and resistance.
DepthHouse – Moving Average Channels has been published for you all to see and try for yourselves.

OHLC Volatility Estimators by @Xel_arjonaDISCLAIMER:
The Following indicator/code IS NOT intended to be a formal investment advice or recommendation by the author, nor should be construed as such. Users will be fully responsible by their use regarding their own trading vehicles/assets.
The embedded code and ideas within this work are FREELY AND PUBLICLY available on the Web for NON LUCRATIVE ACTIVITIES and must remain as is by Creative-Commons as TradingView's regulations. Any use, copy or re-use of this code should mention it's origin as it's authorship.
WARNING NOTICE!
THE INCLUDED FUNCTION MUST BE CONSIDERED AS DEBUGING CODE The models included in the function have been taken from openly sources on the web so they could have some errors as in the calculation scheme and/or in it's programatic scheme. Debugging are welcome.
WHAT'S THIS?
Here's a full collection of candle based (compressed tick) Volatility Estimators given as a function, openly available for free, it can print IMPLIED VOLATILITY by an external symbol ticker like INDEX:VIX.
Models included in the volatility calculation function:
CLOSE TO CLOSE: This is the classic estimator by rule, sometimes referred as HISTORICAL VOLATILITY and is the must common, accepted and widely used out there. Is based on traditional Standard Deviation method derived from the logarithm return of current close from yesterday's.
ELASTIC WEIGHTED MOVING AVERAGE: This estimator has been used by RiskMetriks®. It's calculation is based on an ElasticWeightedMovingAverage Standard Deviation method derived from the logarithm return of current close from yesterday's. It can be viewed or named as an EXPONENTIAL HISTORICAL VOLATILITY model.
PARKINSON'S: The Parkinson number, or High Low Range Volatility, developed by the physicist, Michael Parkinson, in 1980 aims to estimate the Volatility of returns for a random walk using the high and low in any particular period. IVolatility.com calculates daily Parkinson values. Prices are observed on a fixed time interval. n=10, 20, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180 days.
ROGERS-SATCHELL: The Rogers-Satchell function is a volatility estimator that outperforms other estimators when the underlying follows a Geometric Brownian Motion (GBM) with a drift (historical data mean returns different from zero). As a result, it provides a better volatility estimation when the underlying is trending. However, this Rogers-Satchell estimator does not account for jumps in price (Gaps). It assumes no opening jump. The function uses the open, close, high, and low price series in its calculation and it has only one parameter, which is the period to use to estimate the volatility.
YANG-ZHANG: Yang and Zhang were the first to derive an historical volatility estimator that has a minimum estimation error, is independent of the drift, and independent of opening gaps. This estimator is maximally 14 times more efficient than the close-to-close estimator.
LOGARITHMIC GARMAN-KLASS: The former is a pinescript transcript of the model defined as in iVolatility . The metric used is a combination of the overnight, high/low and open/close range. Such a volatility metric is a more efficient measure of the degree of volatility during a given day. This metric is always positive.
Fractals and Levels by JustUncleLEven though there are a many other Fractal and Level indicators, this indicator has some unique features. The indicator will display Fractals, fractal levels and HH/LL points, they will only be drawn after they have completed. Also the indicator has options to :
Show Ideal Fractals Only.
Use Renko Style Fractals, where open/close values are used instead of high/low to find Fractals. This is used to show the correct Fractals when Renko Wicks are enabled.
Has an optional Filter to only display Fractals that are above/below a MA Ribbon.
References:
This code is based on Fractal Levels V8 by RicardoSantos
This is a Renko Chart with "Renko Style Fractals" enabled, notice that the wicks are ignored and only the true Bricks are used for Fractals:
Adaptive Donchian ChannelThis indicator adds a level of adaptivity to the simple Donchian Channel by adjusting the sensitivity (lookback periods) of the channel's upper and lower bounds based on the amount of time that has elapsed since the price has hit/expanded the channel boundaries. Comparing the results of this indicator to the standard Donchian Channel, the readier level of responsiveness may prove self-evident.
METHODOLOGY:
Specifically, the more recently the channel was expanded in one direction, the longer the lookback period grows in that direction. Conversely, if the channel has not been expanded in a given direction, the lookback period will contract so as to allow for a tighter channel.
For example, let the initial lookback period be 20 bars and let the factor argument be 0.1 (or 2 bars to start, as 20*0.1 = 2). Now say the current bar sets a new 20-period high. Then the lookback period for the upper bound is expanded by 2 bars to 22, and the lookback period for the lower bound is contracted by 2 bars to 18, thereby making it simultaneously harder to set new highs and easier to set new lows (and vice versa for hitting new lows). If neither a new high nor a new low is formed, both periods contract by the given factor.
Guth_3X_ConfirmThis indicator has three built in indicators based on the SMA of HIGH, SMA of LOW, and Stochastic. The baseline indicator is the retreats after departures from SMA of HIGH and LOW.
The first time a HIGH that is above the SMA HIGH has a lower HIGH but it still above the SMA HIGH, a (-) will appear at the bottom. This signals an aggressive entry point for potential coming downtrend. The second time the HIGH produces a lower high but is still above the SMA HIGH, a (S) will appear at the bottom which signals a more conservative entry point for potential coming downtrend. All of the opposite information is true of reversals beyond the SMA LOW.
When these reversals appear the same time the Stochastic is overbought or oversold, a red bar (overbought and potentially coming down) or a green bar (oversold and potentially coming up) will appear. NOTE: Aggressive symbols occur more often and will always occur when a conservative symbol appears. When a conservative indicator and respective overbought/oversold level occur at the same time, the bar is darker in color.
You can enter positions at any one of the indicators, however, the darker bars are what I look for. This has a high success rate but cannot guarantee results every time. I recommend adjusting the SMA, and Stoch parameters as well as time periods. I have had success with this indicator while day trading the 5, 10, 15, 30, 65 minute periods as well as daily and weekly periods. Every symbol traded can provide differing results based on the parameters used.
Please feel free to leave feedback and I know this can work well for you!
AlphaAlpha is a measure of the active return on an investment, the performance of that investment compared to the S&P500 index, where 0.01 = 1%
alpha < 0: the investment has earned too little for its risk (or, was too risky for the return)
alpha = 0: the investment has earned a return adequate for the risk taken
alpha > 0: the investment has a return in excess of the reward for the assumed risk
Mister Transistor 3.0This is a general purpose very flexible program to test the effectiveness of HA bars.
Please note that if you are charting at tradingview using Heikin-Ashi charting, your system will be trading fictitious prices even if you check the "use real prices" box. Thought you might like to know that before you lose all your money.
This program performs the HA calcs internally thus allowing you to use HA bars on a standard bar chart and obtaining real prices for your trades.

Trailing Sharpe RatioThe Sharpe ratio allows you to see whether or not an investment has historically provided a return appropriate to its risk level. A Sharpe ratio above one is acceptable, above 2 is good, and above 3 is excellent. A Sharpe ratio less than one would indicate that an investment has not returned a high enough return to justify the risk of holding it. Interesting in this example, SPY's one year avg Sharpe ratio is above 3. This would mean on average SPY returns 3x better returns than the risk associated with holding it, implying there is some sort of underlying value to the investment.
When the sharpe ratio is above its signal, this implies the investment is currently outperforming compared to its typical return, below the signal means the investment is currently under performing. A negative Shape would mean that the investment has not provided a positive return, and may be a possible short candidate.
Zweig Market Breadth Thrust Indicator [LazyBear]The Breadth Thrust (BT) indicator is a market momentum indicator developed by Dr. Martin Zweig. According to Dr. Zweig a Breadth Thrust occurs when, during a 10-day period, the Breadth Thrust indicator rises from below 40 percent to above 61.5 percent.
A "Thrust" indicates that the stock market has rapidly changed from an oversold condition to one of strength, but has not yet become overbought. This is very rare and has happened only a few times. Dr. Zweig also points out that most bull markets begin with a Breadth Thrust.
All parameters are configurable. You can draw BT for NYSE, NASDAQ, AMEX or based on combined data (i.e., AMEX+NYSE+NASD). There is also a "CUSTOM" mode supported, so you can enter your own ADV/DEC symbols.

KK_Traders Dynamic Index_Bar HighlightingHey guys,
this is one of my favorite scripts as it represents a whole trading system that has given me very good results!
I have only used it on Bitcoin so far but I am sure it will also work for other instruments.
The original code to this was created by LazyBear, so all props to him for this great script!
I have linked his original post down below.
You can find the full rules to the system in this PDF (which has also been taken from LBs post):
www.forexmt4.com
Here is a short summary of the rules:
Go long when (all conditions have to be met):
The green line is above 50
The green line is above the red line
The green line is above the orange line
The close is above the upper Band of the Price Action Channel
The candles close is above its open
(The green line is below 68)
Go short when (all conditions have to be met):
The green line is below 50
The green line is below the red line
The green line is below the orange line
The close is below the lower band of the Price Action Channel
The candles close is below its open
(The green line is above 32)
Close when:
Any of these conditions aren't true anymore.
I have marked two of the rules in brackets as they seem to cut out a lot of the profits this system generates. You can choose to still use these rules by checking the box that says "Use Original Ruleset" in the options.
The system also contains rules regarding the Heiken Ashi bars. However these aren't as specific as the other rules. This is where your personal judgement comes in and this part is hard to explain. Take a look at the PDF I have linked to get a better understanding.
So far, this is just the TDI trading system and LBs script, now what have I changed?
I have incorporated the Price Action Channel to the system and changed it so that it highlights the bars whenever the system is giving a signal. As long as the bars are green the system is giving a long signal, as long as they are red the system is giving a short signal. Keep in mind that this doesn't consider the bar size of the HA bars. I recommend coloring all bars grey via the chart settings in order to be able to see the bar highlighting properly.
I have also published the Price Action Channel seperately in case some of you wish to view the Channel.
I am fairly new to creating scripts so use it with caution and let me know what you think!

We Are Witnessing A Historical Event With A Clear Outcome!!!"Full Disclosure: I came across this information from www.SentimenTrader.com
I have no financial affiliation…They provide incredible statistical facts on
The General Market, Currencies, and Futures. They offer a two week free trial.
I Highly Recommend.
The S&P 500 has gone 43 trading days without a 1% daily move, up or down.
which is the equivalent of two months and one day in trading days.
During this stretch, the S&P has gained more than 4%,
and it has notched a 52-week high recently as well.
Since 1952, there were nine other precedents. All of
these went 42 trading days without a 1% move, all of
them saw the S&P gain at least 4% during their streaks,
and all of them saw the S&P close at a 52-week highs.
***There was consistent weakness a week later, with only three
gainers, and all below +0.5%.
***After that, stocks did better, often continuing an Extraordinary move higher.
Charts can sometimes give us a better nuance than
numbers from a table, and from the charts we can see a
general pattern -
***if stocks held up well in the following
weeks, then they tended to do extremely well in the
months ahead.
***If stocks started to stumble after this two-
month period of calm, however, then the following months
tended to show a lot more volatility.
We already know we're seeing an exceptional market
environment at the moment, going against a large number
of precedents that argued for weakness here, instead of
the rally we've seen. If we continue to head higher in
spite of everything, these precedents would suggest that
we're in the midst of something that could be TRULY EXTRAORDINARY.
Trading Strategy based on BB/KC squeeze**** [Edit: New version (v02) posted, see the comments section for the code *****
Simple strategy. You only consider taking a squeeze play when both the upper and lower Bollinger Bands go inside the Keltner Channel. When the Bollinger Bands (BOTH lines) start to come out of the Keltner Channel, the squeeze has been released and a move is about to take place.
I have added more support indicators -- I highlight the bullish / bearish KC breaches (using GREEN/RED crosses) and a SAR to see where price action is trending.
Appreciate any feedback. Enjoy!
Color codes for v02:
----------------------------
When both the upper and lower Bollinger Bands go inside the Keltner Channel, the squeeze is on and is highlighted in RED.
When the Bollinger Bands (BOTH lines) start to come out of the Keltner Channel, the squeeze has been released and is highlighted in GREEN.
When one of the Bollinger Bands is out of Keltner Channel, no highlighting is done (this means, the background color shows up, so don't get confused if you have RED/GREEN in your chart's bground :))
Color codes for v01:
----------------------------
When both the upper and lower Bollinger Bands go inside the Keltner Channel, the squeeze is on and is highlighted in YELLOW.
When the Bollinger Bands (BOTH lines) start to come out of the Keltner Channel, the squeeze has been released and is highlighted in BLUE.
Multi-Ticker Anchored CandlesMulti-Ticker Anchored Candles (MTAC) is a simple tool for overlaying up to 3 tickers onto the same chart. This is achieved by interpreting each symbol's OHLC data as percentages, then plotting their candle points relative to the main chart's open. This allows for a simple comparison of tickers to track performance or locate relationships between them.
> Background
The concept of multi-ticker analysis is not new, this type of analysis can be extremely helpful to get a gauge of the over all market, and it's sentiment. By analyzing more than one ticker at a time, relationships can often be observed between tickers as time progresses.
While seeing multiple charts on top of each other sounds like a good idea...each ticker has its own price scale, with some being only cents while others are thousands of dollars.
Directly overlaying these charts is not possible without modification to their sources.
By using a fixed point in time (Period Open) and percentage performance relative to that point for each ticker, we are able to directly overlay symbols regardless of their price scale differences.
The entire process used to make this indicator can be summed up into 2 keywords, "Scaling & Anchoring".
> Scaling
First, we start by determining a frame of reference for our analysis. The indicator uses timeframe inputs to determine sessions which are used, by default this is set to 1 day.
With this in place, we then determine our point of reference for scaling. While this could be any point in time, the most sensible for our application is the daily (or session) open.
Each symbol shares time, therefore, we can take a price point from a specified time (Opening Price) and use it to sync our analysis over each period.
Over the day, we track the percentage performance of each ticker's OHLC values relative to its daily open (% change from open).
Since each ticker's data is now tracked based on its opening price, all data is now using the same scale.
The scale is simply "% change from open".
> Anchoring
Now that we have our scaled data, we need to put it onto the chart.
Since each point of data is relative to it's daily open (anchor point), relatively speaking, all daily opens are now equal to each other.
By adding the scaled ticker data to the main chart's daily open, each of our resulting series will be properly scaled to the main chart's data based on percentages.
Congratulations, We have now accurately scaled multiple tickers onto one chart.
> Display
The indicator shows each requested ticker as different colored candlesticks plotted on top of the main chart.
Each ticker has an associated label in front of the current bar, each component of this label can be toggled on or off to allow only the desired information to be displayed.
To retain relevance, at the start of each session, a "Session Break" line is drawn, as well as the opening price for the session. These can also be toggled.
Note: The opening price is the opening price for ALL tickers, when a ticker crosses the open on the main chart, it is crossing its own opening price as well.
> Examples
In the chart below, we can see NYSE:MCD NASDAQ:WEN and NASDAQ:JACK overlaid on a NASDAQ:SBUX chart.
From this, we can see NASDAQ:JACK was the top gainer on the day. While this was the case, it also fell roughly 4% from its peak near lunchtime. Unlike the top gainer, we can see the other 3 tickers ended their day near their daily high.
In the explanations above, the daily timeframe is used since it is the default; however, the analysis is not constrained to only days. The anchoring period can be set to any timeframe period.
In the chart below, you can observe the Daily, Weekly, and Monthly anchored charts side-by-side.
This can be used on all tickers, timeframes, and markets. While a typical application may be comparing relevant assets... the script is not limited.
Below we have a chart tracking COMEX:GCV2026 , FX:EURUSD , and COINBASE:DOGEUSD on the AMEX:SPY chart.
While these tickers are not typically compared side-by-side, here it is simply a display of the capabilities of the script.
Enjoy!
BOS and CHoCHThe market never moves in a straight line. It moves in waves.
It makes a High, comes down a bit (Low), then breaks the previous High to make a new High.
Similarly, It makes a Low, goes up a bit (High), then breaks the previous Low to make a new Low.
BOS (Break Of Structure) - Trend Continuation
BOS means the market is continuing its current trend. If the market is in an Uptrend and breaks the old "High" -> Bullish BOS. If the market is in a Downtrend and breaks the old "Low" -> Bearish BOS.
3. CHOCH (Change Of Character) - Trend Reversal
CHOCH means the mood of the market has changed. For the first time, the trend has shifted its nature.
Bullish to Bearish CHOCH: The market was making Higher Highs, but suddenly it broke its previous "Low". Now the market can fall.
Bearish to Bullish CHOCH: The market was falling (Lower Lows), but suddenly it broke its previous "High". Now the market can rise.
BOS: Confirms the trend (Breaking the ceiling to go higher).
CHOCH: Signals a trend change (Slipping and falling below the previous floor).

The True Market Structure indicator is designed to help Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and ICT traders visualize the "True" mechanical structure of the market. Unlike standard ZigZag indicators that often repaint or react to minor noise, this script utilizes a strict Fractal Swing algorithm to identify valid Highs and Lows.
It automatically maps out the market trend by distinguishing between BOS (Break of Structure) for trend continuation and CHoCH (Change of Character) for trend reversals, while highlighting the "Protected" or "Strong" structural points.
How It Works
The indicator relies on a generic fractal calculation (Swing High/Low) determined by the user-defined length.
Trend Identification: The script tracks a state machine (Bullish/Bearish).
Weak Structure (Target): In a bullish trend, the recent High is the "Weak High" (the target to break).
Strong Structure (Protected): The Low responsible for breaking the High becomes the "Strong Low."
BOS vs. CHoCH:
BOS: When price breaks a Weak High (in an uptrend), it confirms continuation.
CHoCH: When price breaks a Strong Low (in an uptrend), it signals a potential reversal.
Key Features
True Fractal Detection: Uses a centered lookback period (Input: Swing Fractal Length) to find significant pivot points.
Confirmation Modes: Choose between candle Close (more conservative, filters wicks) or High/Low (more aggressive) for structure breaks.
Structure Mapping:
Solid Lines: Represent BOS (Trend Continuation).
Dashed Lines: Represent CHoCH (Trend Reversal).
Origin Dots (Protected Levels):
These dots mark the exact swing point that caused the break.
Usage: In an uptrend, the dot marks the Strong Low. If price closes below this dot, the trend flips.
Settings Guide
Swing Fractal Length: The lookback period to define a Swing High/Low.
Default: 3 (Standard ICT Intermediate Term High/Low).
Increase this number to see higher timeframe structure (e.g., set to 10-20 for major swings).
Break Confirmation:
Close: Price body must close beyond the structure level to confirm a break.
High/Low: A wick breaking the level is sufficient.
Visuals: Toggle lines and dots on/off and customize colors to fit your chart theme.
How to Use (Trading Strategy)
Trend Following: Wait for a BOS (Solid Line). Identify the Origin Dot created by that move. This is your "Protected Low/High." Look for entries (FVG/Order Blocks) between the current price and that Dot.
Reversal Trading: Watch for a CHoCH (Dashed Line). This indicates the "Strong Structure" has failed, and the bias has shifted.
Stop Placement: The Origin Dots serve as excellent invalidation points for Stop Losses.

The Strat - Levels [rdjxyz]◆ OVERVIEW
The Strat - Levels dynamically displays key levels used in The Strat trading methodology, developed by Rob Smith. The level colors are dynamically determined by their Strat classification (1, 2 up, failed 2 up, 2 down, failed 2 down, 3)—making it easy to recognize higher timeframe Strat candle classifications from any lower timeframe.
◆ DETAILS
If you're unfamiliar with The Strat, there are 3 universal scenarios regarding candle behavior:
SCENARIO ONE
The 1 Bar - Inside Bar: A candle that doesn't take out the highs or the lows of the previous candle; aka consolidation.
SCENARIO TWO
The 2 Bar - Directional Bar: A candle that takes out one side of the previous candle; aka trending (or at least attempting to trend).
These can be broken down even further as follows:
2 Up: A candle that takes out the high of the previous candle and closes bullish
Failed 2 Up: A candle that takes out the high of the previous candle and closes bearish
2 Down: A candle that takes out the low of the previous candle and closes bearish
Failed 2 Down: A candle that takes out the low of the previous candle and closes bullish
SCENARIO THREE
The 3 Bar - Outside Bar: A candle that takes out both sides of the previous candle; aka broadening formation.
◇ HOW THE DYNAMIC LEVEL COLORING WORKS
PREVIOUS LEVELS
Previous Day High/Low
Previous Week High/Low
Previous Month High/Low
Previous Quarter High/Low
Previous Year High/Low
Each period's levels are compared to their previous period's levels and colored according to the 3 universal scenarios, which are fixed based on historical data. (No repainting)
CURRENT LEVELS
Current Day Open
Current Week Open
Current Month Open
Current Quarter Open
Current Year Open
Each current period's levels (high, low, and current price) are compared to the previous period's levels and current period's open on every tick—changing colors in real-time as their Strat classification changes. (Will repaint as price action evolves)
E.g. When a new day opens inside of the previous day's range (high/low) the Day Open line will be gray (default for inside bars). When the current day trades above the previous day's range, the Day Open line will become aqua (default for 2 up). If price trades back below the current day's open, the Day Open line will become fuchsia (default for failed 2 up). And if price trades below the previous day's range, the Day Open line will become dark purple (default for 3s).

And each Strat scenario can be custom colored:
1-Bar Color - Default Gray
2-Up Color - Default Aqua
Failed 2-Up Color - Default Fuchsia
2-Down Color - Default White
Failed 2-Down Color - Default Teal
3-Bar Color - Default Dark Purple
◆ USAGE
There are 3 ways to look at these levels:
Potential continuation (e.g. Previous Day's 2-Up High being broken by Current Day's Price)
Potential reversal (e.g. Previous Day's 2-Down High being broken by Current Day's Price)
Potential exhaustion risk (e.g. Previous Month's Low is broken by Current Day's Price but trades back up into the Previous Month's range)
It's best to use this indicator with a separate indicator that color codes your chart's candles according to their Strat Scenario (1, 2, 3) and use top-down analysis to gauge whether to view levels as a sign of continuation, reversal, or exhaustion risk.
◆ WRAP UP
As demonstrated, The Strat - Levels offers Strat Scenario color-coded key levels, making it easy to identify the previous period's Strat Scenario (1, 2-Up, Failed 2-Up, 2-Down, Failed 2-Down, or 3) without needing to manually plot levels or refer to higher timeframes.
◆ DISCLAIMER
This indicator is a tool for visual analysis and is intended to assist traders who follow The Strat methodology. As with any trading methodology, there's no guarantee of profits; trading involves a high degree of risk and you could lose all of your invested capital. Use of this indicator is not indicative of future results and does not constitute and should not be construed as investment advice. All trading decisions and investments made by you are at your own discretion and risk. Under no circumstances shall the author be liable for any direct, indirect, or incidental damages.

Compression Breakout [30min 65+33 EMA]Compression Breakout
by GhostMMXM (inspired by Chris Cady & Steidlmayer Market Profile principles)
This indicator automates the exact compression-to-displacement setup that veteran CBOT floor trader and Market Profile pioneer Chris Cady describes in interviews and his work with Peter Steidlmayer.
Core idea
Chris Cady uses two simple moving averages on the 30-minute chart — a 33-period and a 65-period — to visually detect when the market falls into “balance” (compression). When both lines go almost perfectly flat for several bars, the market is in a low-volatility, high-consensus state — the calm before a violent vertical breakout.
What this script does
• Detects when both the 33 EMA and 65 EMA are virtually flat (user-adjustable sensitivity)
• Requires a minimum of 6 consecutive flat bars (adjustable) before declaring compression
• Draws a light-grey background + live-updating box showing the detecting compression
• Triggers only on the first strong displacing bar that:
– closes entirely above the compression high OR entirely below the compression low
– has a range ≥ 1.5× the average bar range inside the compression zone (adjustable)
• Plots a clear “LONG Cady Break” or “SHORT Cady Break” label on the breakout bar
• Fires a clean alert instantly usable on entire watchlists:
BTC → Compression LONG breakout!
ES1! → Compression SHORT breakout!
Designed for 30-minute charts (BTC, ETH, SOL, NQ, CL, GC, etc.) but works on any timeframe.
Perfect for traders who want to catch the highest-conviction vertical moves that Chris Cady has traded for decades with only a few contracts scaled in aggressively on the break.
Settings
• Minimum flat bars for compression (default 6)
• Max % slope to be considered flat (default 0.08 %)
• Minimum range multiplier vs compression average (default 1.5×)
Enjoy the cleanest, most mechanical version of Chris Cady’s famous compression breakout strategy available on TradingView.
Happy trading!

Dynamic Support and Resistance with Trend LinesDynamic Support and Resistance with Trend Lines (DSRTL)
1. Introduction & Methodology
The DSRTL indicator is designed to provide a multidimensional analysis of market structure. Unlike traditional tools that rely solely on price pivots, this script combines Static Volume-based Zones with Dynamic Trend Lines to evaluate the price's position relative to critical market components.
The S/R Identification Technique
Instead of standard pivot points, DSRTL utilizes Volume Analysis to highlight areas of significant trader participation:
- Strategy A:
Matrix Climax: Identifies candles within the lookback period that are near price extremes (Highs/Lows) and coincide with significant buying or selling volume.
- Strategy B:
Volume Extremes: Detects candles with the absolute highest buy/sell volumes within the selected lookback window, creating extreme volume-based S/R zones.
- Result:
This creates Support/Resistance (S/R) zones that are validated by actual market activity, not just price geometry.
Dynamic Trend Lines
To complement the static zones, the indicator employs two adaptive channel methods:
- Pivot Span: Connects recent significant pivots for a fast, reactive trend corridor.
- 5-Point Channel: Segments the lookback period into 5 parts to perform a linear regression analysis, creating a stable and statistically significant channel.
2. Volume Calculation Methodology
Accurate S/R detection requires distinguishing Buy Volume from Sell Volume. DSRTL offers two calculation modes:
- Geometry (Source File): Estimates buy/sell volume based on the Close price's position relative to the High/Low of the candle.
Note: This is an approximation that works on all plan types as it does not require intrabar data.
- Intrabar (Precise): Analyzes historical lower-timeframe data (e.g., 15S) to calculate intrabar-based volume deltas with higher precision compared to the geometric method.
Note: This offers superior accuracy. It requires access to historical intrabar data (depending on your plan limits). For the best analytical results, use this mode if available.
3. The Smart Matrix Engine (3D Analysis)
The core of DSRTL is its dashboard, powered by the "Smart Matrix Engine." This engine evaluates the current price in a multi-layer market structure context (Static Volume Zones + Dynamic Channels + Volume Metrics).:
A. S-State (Static): Where is the price relative to the Volume S/R zones?
B. D-State (Dynamic): Where is the price relative to the Trend Channels?
How to read the Matrix Map:
The dashboard displays a 5x5 grid representing 25 possible market scenarios.
- Rows (S1-S5): Represent the Static State (S1=Breakout, S3=Mid-Range, S5=Breakdown).
- Columns (D1-D5): Represent the Dynamic State (D1=Overextended Up, D3=Neutral, D5=Overextended Down).
- Active Cell: Marked with a dot, indicating the specific intersection of price action and market structure.
4. Matrix Interpretations (The 25 Scenarios)
Below is the detailed logic for every possible state displayed on the dashboard, explaining the Title, Bias, and actionable Signal.
Section I: S1 - Static Breakout (Price > Static Resistance)
The price has cleared the static volume resistance zone.
- S1 / D1: HYPER EXTENSION
Bias: Extreme Bullish
Signal: Caution: Exhaustion Risk. Trail stops tight.
- S1 / D2: RESISTANCE CLASH
Bias: Bullish
Signal: Breakout confirmed but facing immediate dynamic resistance.
- S1 / D3: CHANNEL BREAKOUT
Bias: Strong Bullish
Signal: Ideal Trend Continuation. Look to buy dips.
- S1 / D4: SMART PULLBACK
Bias: Bullish (Pullback)
Signal: A pullback occurring after a breakout. Strong buy opportunity.
- S1 / D5: CONFLICT (DIV)
Bias: Conflict/Reversal
Signal: Major Divergence. Static breakout is failing against dynamic structure. High Risk.
Section II: S2 - Inside Static Resistance
The price is currently testing the overhead resistance zone.
- S2 / D1: WEAK SPIKE
Bias: Neutral/Bullish
Signal: Testing resistance, but short-term overextended.

Bias: Neutral
Signal: Dead Center. Low probability environment. Avoid trading.
- S3 / D4: RANGE DIP BUY
Bias: Neutral/Bullish
Signal: At the bottom of the dynamic channel. Look for bounce signs.
- S3 / D5: WEAK RANGE (OS)
Bias: Bounce Risk (OS)
Signal: Oversold within the range. Potential fade (long).
Section IV: S4 - Inside Static Support
The price is currently testing the floor support zone.

Section V: S5 - Static Breakdown (Price < Static Support)
The price has dropped below the static volume support zone.
- S5 / D1: CONFLICT (DIV)
Bias: Conflict/Reversal
Signal: Major Divergence. Static breakdown is failing. High Risk.
- S5 / D2: BEAR PULLBACK
Bias: Bearish (Pullback)
Signal: A pullback occurring after a breakdown. Strong selling opportunity.
- S5 / D3: CHANNEL BREAKDOWN
Bias: Strong Bearish
Signal: Ideal Trend Continuation (Down). Sell rallies.
- S5 / D4: SUPPORT CLASH
Bias: Bearish
Signal: Breakdown confirmed but facing immediate dynamic support.
- S5 / D5: HYPER DROP (VOID)
Bias: Extreme Bearish
Signal: Caution: Climax risk. Trail stops for shorts.
