BBTrend w SuperTrend decision - Strategy [presentTrading]This strategy aims to improve upon the performance of Traidngview's newly published "BB Trend" indicator by incorporating the SuperTrend for better trade execution and risk management. Enjoy :)
█Introduction and How it is Different
The "BBTrend w SuperTrend decision - Strategy " is a trading strategy designed to identify market trends using Bollinger Bands and SuperTrend indicators. What sets this strategy apart is its use of two Bollinger Bands with different lengths to capture both short-term and long-term market trends, providing a more comprehensive view of market dynamics. Additionally, the strategy includes customizable take profit (TP) and stop loss (SL) settings, allowing traders to tailor their risk management according to their preferences.

█ Strategy, How It Works: Detailed Explanation
The BBTrend strategy employs two key indicators: Bollinger Bands and SuperTrend.
🔶 Bollinger Bands Calculation:
- Short Bollinger Bands**: Calculated using a shorter period (default 20).
- Long Bollinger Bands**: Calculated using a longer period (default 50).
- Bollinger Bands use the standard deviation of price data to create upper and lower bands around a moving average.
Upper Band = Middle Band + (k * Standard Deviation)
Lower Band = Middle Band - (k * Standard Deviation)
🔶 BBTrend Indicator:
- The BBTrend indicator is derived from the absolute differences between the short and long Bollinger Bands' lower and upper values.
BBTrend = (|Short Lower - Long Lower| - |Short Upper - Long Upper|) / Short Middle * 100
🔶 SuperTrend Indicator:
- The SuperTrend indicator is calculated using the average true range (ATR) and a multiplier. It helps identify the market trend direction by plotting levels above and below the price, which act as dynamic support and resistance levels. * @EliCobra makes the SuperTrend Toolkit. He is GOAT.
SuperTrend Upper = HL2 + (Factor * ATR)
SuperTrend Lower = HL2 - (Factor * ATR)
The strategy determines market trends by checking if the close price is above or below the SuperTrend values:
- Uptrend: Close price is above the SuperTrend lower band.
- Downtrend: Close price is below the SuperTrend upper band.
Short: 10 Long: 20 std 2
Short: 20 Long: 40 std 2
Short: 20 Long: 40 std 4
█ Trade Direction
The strategy allows traders to choose their trading direction:
- Long: Enter long positions only.
- Short: Enter short positions only.
- Both: Enter both long and short positions based on market conditions.
█ Usage
To use the "BBTrend - Strategy " effectively:
1. Configure Inputs: Adjust the Bollinger Bands lengths, standard deviation multiplier, and SuperTrend settings.
2. Set TPSL Conditions: Choose the take profit and stop loss percentages to manage risk.
3. Choose Trade Direction: Decide whether to trade long, short, or both directions.
4. Apply Strategy: Apply the strategy to your chart and monitor the signals for potential trades.
█ Default Settings
The default settings are designed to provide a balance between sensitivity and stability:
- Short BB Length (20): Captures short-term market trends.
- Long BB Length (50): Captures long-term market trends.
- StdDev (2.0): Determines the width of the Bollinger Bands.
- SuperTrend Length (10): Period for calculating the ATR.
- SuperTrend Factor (12): Multiplier for the ATR to adjust the SuperTrend sensitivity.
- Take Profit (30%): Sets the level at which profits are taken.
- Stop Loss (20%): Sets the level at which losses are cut to manage risk.
Effect on Performance
- Short BB Length: A shorter length makes the strategy more responsive to recent price changes but can generate more false signals.
- Long BB Length: A longer length provides smoother trend signals but may be slower to react to price changes.
- StdDev: Higher values create wider bands, reducing the frequency of signals but increasing their reliability.
- SuperTrend Length and Factor: Shorter lengths and higher factors make the SuperTrend more sensitive, providing quicker signals but potentially more noise.
- Take Profit and Stop Loss: Adjusting these levels affects the risk-reward ratio. Higher take profit percentages can increase gains but may result in fewer closed trades, while higher stop loss percentages can decrease the likelihood of being stopped out but increase potential losses.

Contrarian DC Strategy - w Entry SL Pause and TrailingStopDonchian Channel Setup:
The strategy uses a tool called the Donchian Channel. Imagine this as two lines (bands) on a chart that show the highest and lowest prices over a certain number of past trading days (default is 20 days).
There's also a centerline, which is the average of these two bands.
Entry Conditions for Trades:
Buying (Going Long): The strategy considers buying when the price touches or falls below the lower band of the Donchian Channel. However, this only happens if there has been a pause after a previous losing trade. This pause is a number of candles where no new trades are taken.
Selling (Going Short): Similarly, the strategy considers selling when price reaches or exceeds the upper band of the Donchian Channel. Again, this is subject to a pause after a losing trade.
Stop Loss and Take Profit:
Each trade has a "Stop Loss" and "Take Profit" set. The Stop Loss is a preset price level where the trade will close to prevent further losses if the market moves against your position. The Take Profit does the same but locks in profit if the market moves in your favor.
The Stop Loss is set based on a percentage of the price at which you entered the trade.
The Take Profit is determined by the Risk/Reward Ratio. This ratio helps balance how much you're willing to risk versus the potential reward.
Trailing Stop Loss:
When a trade is profitable, the strategy should involve a "Trailing Stop Loss." This means the Stop Loss level moves (or trails) the price movement to lock in profits as the market moves in your favor.
For a buy trade, if the price moves above the centerline of the Donchian Channel, the Trailing Stop Loss should be adjusted in the middle between the entry price and the centerline. Viceversa for a sell trade, it should be adjusted in the same way if the price goes below the centerline.
IMPORTANT: There's no allert for the trailing stop at the moment.
Post-Stop Loss Pause:
If a trade hits the Stop Loss (i.e., it's a losing trade), the strategy takes a break before opening another trade in the same direction. This pause helps to avoid entering another trade immediately in a potentially unfavorable market.
In summary, this strategy is designed to make trades based on the Donchian Channel, with specific rules for when to enter and exit trades, and mechanisms to manage risk and protect profits. It's contrarian because it tends to buy when the price is low and sell when the price is high, which is opposite to what many traders might do.
Narrow Range StrategyNarrow Range Strategy :
INTRODUCTION :
This strategy is based on the Narrow Range Day concept, implying that low volatility will generate higher volatility in the days ahead. The strategy sends us buy and sell signals with well-defined profit targets. It's a medium/long-term strategy. There's also a money management method that allows us to reinvest part of the profits or reduce the size of orders in the event of substantial losses.
NARROW RANGE (NR) DAY :
A Narrow Range Day is a day in which price variations are included in those of a specific day some time before. The high and low of this specific day form the "reference range". In general, we compare these variations with those of 4 or 7 days ago. The mathematical formula for finding an NR4 is :
If low > low(4) and high < high(4) :
nr = true
This implies that the current low is greater than the low of 4 days ago, and the current high is smaller than the high of 4 days ago. So today's volatility is lower than that of 4 days ago, and may be a sign of high volatility to come.
PARAMETERS :
Narrow Range Length : Corresponds to the number of candles back to compare current volatility. The default is 4, allowing comparison of current volatility with that of 4 candles ago.
Stop Loss : Percentage of the reference range on which to set an exit order to limit losses. The minimum value is 0.001, while the maximum is 1. The default value is 0.35.
Fixed Ratio : This is the amount of gain or loss at which the order quantity is changed. The default is 400, which means that for each $400 gain or loss, the order size is increased or decreased by an amount chosen by the user.
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 was used to test NR4 and NR7 with all possible Stop Losses in order to find out which combination generates the highest return on BITSTAMP:ETHUSD while limiting the drawdown. This strategy is the most optimal with an NR4 and a SL of 35% of the reference range size in 5D timeframe.
BUY AND SHORT SIGNALS :
When an NR is spotted, we create two stop orders on the high and low of the reference range. As soon as there's a breakout from this reference range (shown in blue on the chart), we open a position. We're LONG if there's a breakout on the high and SHORT if there's a breakout on the low. Executing a stop order cancels the second stop order.
RISK MANAGEMENT :
This strategy is subject to losses. We manage our risk with Stop Losses. The user is free to enter a SL as a percentage of the reference range. The maximum amount risked per trade therefore depends on the size of the range. The larger the range, the greater the risk. That's why we have set a maximum Stop Loss to 10% to limiting risks per trade.
The special feature of this strategy is that it targets a precise profit objective. This corresponds to the size of the reference range at the top of the high if you're LONG, or at the bottom of the low if you're short. In the same way, the larger the reference range, the greater the potential profits.
The risk reward remains the same for all trades and amounts to : 100/35 = 2.86. If the reference range is too high, we have set a SL to 10% of the trade value to limit losses. In that case, the risk reward is less than 2.86.
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.
NOTE :
Please note that the strategy is backtested from 2017-01-01. As the timeframe is 5D, this strategy is a medium/long-term strategy. That's why only 37 trades were closed. Be careful, as the test sample is small and performance may not necessarily reflect what may happen in the future.
Enjoy the strategy and don't forget to take the trade :)
[Fedra Algotrading Strategy Trailing Stop]Algotrading strategy optimized for cryptocurrencies. Originally conceived to trade automatically through bots (that's how I use it), it also works to get signals and trade manually in any exchange.
It works in spot.
Buy the dip:
Attempts to buy on the dip, finding entries when the price makes abrupt dips that break deviation of the linear regression of the last periods.
Trend Detection:
Determines whether the market is in an uptrend or downtrend by crossing 2 SMAs + super trend in different temporalities. This affects the performance of the strategy. It works as a filter to avoid making entries in a downtrend. It also includes other advanced filters to find the best selling price on losses.
Break Even:
If the market enters a downtrend with an open trade, the Break Even sell is triggered, (configurable, default 1.5%). The intention is to close the trade as soon as possible, but without losses. The value of 1.5% is intended to cover commission costs and a possible spread.
Conditional SL Level: Determines a tolerance level in %, from which it is allowed to sell at a loss, while the price is above this level, the scrip will only sell at a profit.
% Trailing Stop Loss. The Stop Loss is placed a % below the price and accompanies it in the rises to make the most of an uptrend.
It allows you to easily configure the backtest period to optimize the parameters for consistent results.
The strategy calculates by default a commission of 0.1% on each trade to make the backtest more "pessimistic".
Includes advanced features for compatibility with different bots platforms in the market.
Risk management by % of equity or by maximum series of losses.

Administración de risego por % del capital o por máxima serie de pérdidas
Vital Wave 20-50Simplicity is almost always the most effective approach, and here I’m giving you a trend-following system that exploits the bullish bias of traditional markets and their trending nature, with very basic rules.
Rules (long entries only)
• Market entry: When the EMA 20 crosses above the EMA 50 (from below)
• Main market exit: When the EMA 20 crosses below the EMA 50 (from above)
• Fixed Stop Loss: Placed at the price level of the Lower Bollinger Band at the moment the trade is entered.
In my strategy, the primary exit is when the EMA 20 crosses below the EMA 50. However, this crossover can sometimes take a while to occur, and in the meantime the price may have already dropped significantly. The Stop Loss based on the Lower Bollinger Band is designed to limit losses in case the market moves sharply against the position without giving the bearish crossover signal in time. Having two exit conditions makes the strategy much more robust in terms of risk management.
Risk Management:
• Initial capital: $10,000
• Position size: 10% of available capital per trade
• Commissions: 0.1% on traded volume
• Stop Loss: Based on the Lower Bollinger Band
• Take Profit / Exit: When EMA 20 crosses below EMA 50

• Green background when EMA20 > EMA50 (bullish trend)
• Red background when EMA20 < EMA50 (bearish trend)
Important Note:
We can significantly increase the profit factor and overall profitability by risking a fixed percentage per trade instead of a fixed amount. This would prevent losses from fluctuating with changes in volatility.
This could be implemented by reducing position size or adjusting leverage based on the volatility percentage required for each trade, but I’m not sure if this is fully possible in Pine Script. In my other script, “ Golden Cross 50/200 EMA ,” I go deeper into this topic and provide examples.
I hope you enjoy this contribution. Best regards!
TDGS Dynamic Grid Trading Strategy [CoinFxPro]Advanced Dynamic Grid Trading Strategy
Logic and Working Principle:
This strategy uses a dynamic grid system to support both long and short trades. Grid trading aims to capitalize on price fluctuations within a predefined range by executing buy and sell orders systematically. The system calculates grid levels based on a base price and dynamically trades within these levels.
Grid Levels:
Grid levels are calculated based on the initial price and the user-defined grid spacing percentage.
Long Mode: Buys when the price decreases and sells when the price increases.
Short Mode: Sells when the price increases and buys when the price decreases.
Grid Updates:
Grid levels are recalculated based on the market price when the price moves by a user-defined update percentage.
For example;
In Long mode, when the price shows an upward trend, that is, when it rises by the Grid Update Percentage specified by the user, Grid levels are recreated and trades are made according to the new grid levels. While the price and grid levels are updated according to the new price, the Stop level is also updated upwards and the stop is followed with the TrailingStop logic.
In short mode, the same system operates with reverse logic. In other words, as prices decrease downwards, the grids are updated downwards when the Grid update percentage determined by the user decreases. The stop level is also updated accordingly.
The difference of the strategy from other Gridbots is that the grid levels are automatically updated and the levels are recreated with the price percentage difference determined by the user. Old levels can be tracked on the chart.
As the price updates, the self-updating grid levels are updated upwards in long mode and downwards in short mode.
The number of buying lots and selling lots are separated, allowing both trading within the position and the opportunity to collect lots and increase the position.
When trading with the grid trading logic, when buying and selling between grids, there is no repeated purchase at the same level unless there is a sale at the upper grid level. In this way, each level will be traded within itself.
For example, in a long condition, when the price is going up, after deducting the selling lot from the buying lot at each level, the remaining lots will be collected while the price is going up and an opportunity will be provided from the price rise.
Different preferences have been added to the profit taking conditions, allowing the robot to continue or stop after profit taking, if desired.
The system, which acts entirely according to user parameters, constantly updates itself as long as it moves in the direction determined by itself, and in these conditions, transactions are carried out according to profit or stop conditions.
Parameters:
Grid Parameters:
Settings such as buy lot size, sell lot size, grid count, and grid spacing percentage allow flexibility and customization.
Risk Management:
Stop loss (%) and take profit (%) levels help limit potential losses and secure profits at predefined thresholds.
Objective:
The goal of this strategy is to systematically capitalize on market price fluctuations through automated grid trading. This method is particularly effective in volatile markets where the price oscillates within a specific range.
The strategy works with a complete algorithm logic, and in appropriate instruments (especially instruments with depth and transaction volume should be preferred), buying and selling transactions are made according to the parameters determined at the beginning, and if the conditions go beyond the conditions, the stop is made, and when the profit taking conditions are met, it takes profit and prices according to the determined value. When it is updated, the values are updated again and the parameter works algorithmically.
Risk Management Recommendations:
Initial Capital: Grid trading involves frequent transactions, so sufficient initial capital is essential.
Stop Loss: Always set stop loss levels to prevent significant losses.
Grid Count and Spacing: A higher number of grids provides more trading opportunities but using grids that are too close may increase transaction costs due to small price movements.
First of all, it is important for risk management that you choose instruments that have depth and high transaction volume.
Strategy results may differ as a result of the parameters entered. Therefore, before trading in your real account, it is recommended that you start real transactions after backtesting with different parameters.

ADX Breakout Strategy█ OVERVIEW
The ADX Breakout strategy leverages the Average Directional Index (ADX) to identify and execute breakout trades within specified trading sessions. Designed for the NQ and ES 30-minute charts, this strategy aims to capture significant price movements while managing risk through predefined stop losses and trade limits.
This strategy was taken from a strategy that was posted on YouTube. I would link the video, but I believe is is "against house rules".
█ CONCEPTS
The strategy is built upon the following key concepts:
ADX Indicator: Utilizes the ADX to gauge the strength of a trend. Trades are initiated when the ADX value is below a certain threshold, indicating potential for trend development.
Trade Session Management: Limits trading to specific hours to align with optimal market activity periods.
Risk Management: Implements a fixed dollar stop loss and restricts the number of trades per session to control exposure.
█ FEATURES
Customizable Stop Loss: Set your preferred stop loss amount to manage risk effectively.
Trade Session Configuration: Define the trading hours to focus on the most active market periods.
Entry Conditions: Enter long positions when the price breaks above the highest close in the lookback window and the ADX indicates potential trend strength.
Trade Limits: Restrict the number of trades per session to maintain disciplined trading.
Automated Exit: Automatically closes all positions at the end of the trading session to avoid overnight risk.
█ HOW TO USE
Configure Inputs :
Stop Loss ($): Set the maximum loss per trade.
Trade Session: Define the active trading hours.
Highest Lookback Window: Specify the number of bars to consider for the highest close.
Apply the Strategy :
Add the ADX Breakout strategy to your chart on TradingView.
Ensure you are using a 30-minute timeframe for optimal performance.
█ LIMITATIONS
Market Conditions: The strategy is optimized for trending markets and may underperform in sideways or highly volatile conditions.
Timeframe Specific: Designed specifically for 30-minute charts; performance may vary on different timeframes.
Single Asset Focus: Primarily tested on NQ and ES instruments; effectiveness on other symbols is not guaranteed.
█ DISCLAIMER
This ADX Breakout strategy is provided for educational and informational purposes only. It is not financial advice and should not be construed as such. Trading involves significant risk, and you may incur substantial losses. Always perform your own analysis and consider your financial situation before using this or any other trading strategy. The source material for this strategy is publicly available in the comments at the beginning of the code script. This strategy has been published openly for anyone to review and verify its methodology and performance.
Rsi Long-Term Strategy [15min]Hello, I would like to present to you The "RSI Long-Term Strategy" for 15min tf
The "RSI Long-Term Strategy " is designed for traders who prefer a combination of momentum and trend-following techniques. The strategy focuses on entering long positions during significant market corrections within an overall uptrend, confirmed by both RSI and volume. The use of long-term SMAs ensures that trades are made in line with the broader market trend. The stop-loss feature provides risk management by limiting losses on trades that do not perform as expected. This strategy is particularly well-suited for longer-term traders who monitor 15-minute charts but look for substantial trend reversals or continuations.
Indicators and Parameters:
Relative Strength Index (RSI):
- The RSI is calculated using a 10-period length. It measures the magnitude of recent price changes to evaluate overbought or oversold conditions. The script defines oversold conditions when the RSI is at or below 30 and overbought conditions when the RSI is at or above 70.
Volume Condition:
-The strategy incorporates a volume condition where the current volume must be greater than 2.5 times the 20-period moving average of volume. This is used to confirm the strength of the price movement.
Simple Moving Averages (SMA):
- The strategy uses two SMAs: SMA1 with a length of 250 periods and SMA2 with a length of 500 periods. These SMAs help identify long-term trends and generate signals based on their crossover.
Strategy Logic:
Entry Logic:
A long position is initiated when all the following conditions are met:
The RSI indicates an oversold condition (RSI ≤ 30).
SMA1 is above SMA2, indicating an uptrend.
The volume condition is satisfied, confirming the strength of the signal.
Exit Logic:
The strategy closes the long position when SMA1 crosses under SMA2, signaling a potential end of the uptrend (a "Death Cross").
Stop-Loss:
A stop-loss is set at 5% below the entry price to manage risk and limit potential losses.
Buy and sell signals are highlighted with circles below or above bars:
Green Circle : Buy signal when RSI is oversold, SMA1 > SMA2, and the volume condition is met.
Red Circle : Sell signal when RSI is overbought, SMA1 < SMA2, and the volume condition is met.
Black Cross: "Death Cross" when SMA1 crosses under SMA2, indicating a potential bearish signal.
to determine the level of stop loss and target point I used a piece of code by RafaelZioni, here is the script from which a piece of code was taken
I hope the strategy will be helpful, as always, best regards and safe trades

S&D Light+ Enhanced# S&D Light+ Enhanced - Supply & Demand Zone Trading Strategy
## 📊 Overview
**S&D Light+ Enhanced** is an advanced Supply and Demand zone identification and trading strategy that combines institutional order flow concepts with smart money techniques. This strategy automatically identifies high-probability reversal zones based on Break of Structure (BOS), momentum analysis, and first retest principles.
## 🎯 Key Features
### Smart Zone Detection
- **Automatic Supply & Demand Zone Identification** - Detects institutional zones where price is likely to react
- **Multi-Candle Momentum Analysis** - Validates zones with configurable momentum requirements
- **Break of Structure (BOS) Confirmation** - Ensures zones are created only after significant structure breaks
- **Quality Filters** - Minimum zone size and ATR-based filtering to eliminate weak zones
### Advanced Zone Management
- **Customizable Zone Display** - Choose between Geometric or Volume-Weighted midlines
- **First Retest Logic** - Option to trade only the first touch of each zone for higher probability setups
- **Zone Capacity Control** - Maintains a clean chart by limiting stored zones per type
- **Visual Zone Status** - Automatically marks consumed zones with faded midlines
### Risk Management
- **Dynamic Stop Loss** - Positioned beyond zone boundaries with adjustable buffer
- **Risk-Reward Ratio Control** - Customizable R:R for consistent risk management
- **Entry Spacing** - Minimum bars between signals prevents overtrading
- **Position Sizing** - Built-in percentage of equity allocation
## 🔧 How It Works
### Zone Creation Logic
**Supply Zones (Selling Pressure):**
1. Strong momentum downward movement (configurable body-to-range ratio)
2. Identified bullish base candle (where institutions accumulated shorts)
3. Break of Structure downward (price breaks below recent swing low)
4. Zone created at the base candle's high/low range
**Demand Zones (Buying Pressure):**
1. Strong momentum upward movement
2. Identified bearish base candle (where institutions accumulated longs)
3. Break of Structure upward (price breaks above recent swing high)
4. Zone created at the base candle's high/low range
### Entry Conditions
**Long Entry:**
- Price retests a demand zone (touches top of zone)
- Rejection confirmed (close above zone)
- Zone hasn't been used (if "first retest only" enabled)
- Minimum bars since last entry respected
**Short Entry:**
- Price retests a supply zone (touches bottom of zone)
- Rejection confirmed (close below zone)
- Zone hasn't been used (if "first retest only" enabled)
- Minimum bars since last entry respected
## ⚙️ Customizable Parameters
### Display Settings
- **Show Zones** - Toggle zone visualization on/off
- **Max Stored Zones** - Control number of active zones (1-50 per type)
- **Color Customization** - Adjust supply/demand colors and transparency
### Zone Quality Filters

- **Min Momentum Candles** - Number of consecutive momentum candles required (1-5)
- **Big Candle Body Fraction** - Alternative single-candle momentum threshold (0.5-0.95)
- **Min Zone Size %** - Minimum zone height as percentage of price (0.01-5.0%)
### BOS Configuration
- **Swing Length** - Lookback period for structure identification (3-20)
- **ATR Length** - Period for volatility measurement (1-50)
- **BOS Required Break** - ATR multiplier for valid structure break (0.1-3.0)
### Midline Options
- **None** - No midline displayed
- **Geometric** - Simple average of zone top/bottom
- **CenterVolume** - Volume-weighted center based on highest volume bar in window
### Risk Management
- **SL Buffer %** - Additional space beyond zone boundary (0-5%)
- **Take Profit RR** - Risk-reward ratio for target placement (0.5-10x)
### Entry Rules
- **Only 1st Retest per Zone** - Trade zones only once for higher quality
- **Min Bars Between Entries** - Prevent overtrading (1-20 bars)
## 📈 Recommended Settings

Mean-Reversion with CooldownThis strategy requires no indicators or fundamental analysis. It is designed for longer-term positions and works especially well on unleveraged instruments with strong long-term upward trends, such as precious metals. Feel free to experiment with different timeframes — I’ve found that 1-hour charts work particularly well for cryptocurrencies.
The idea is to filter out ongoing bear phases as effectively as possible and capitalize on long-term bull runs.
The script implements an idea that came to me in a state of complete sleep deprivation: open a random long position with a fixed take-profit (TP) and a tight stop-loss (SL).
If the TP is hit — great, we simply try again.
If the SL is triggered — too bad, we pause for a while and then try again.
## Cooldown (Waiting) Mechanism
The waiting mechanism is simple: the more consecutive SL hits we get, the longer we wait before opening the next trade. The waiting time is measured in closed candles, and thus depends on the timeframe you are using.
## Two cooldown calculation modes are currently supported:
### 1. FIBONACCI
The cooldown follows the Fibonacci sequence, based on the number of consecutive losses:
1st loss → wait 1 bar
2nd loss → wait 1 bar
3rd loss → wait 2 or 3 bars (depending on definition)
4th loss → wait 3 or 5 bars
etc.
### 2. POWER OF TWO
The cooldown increases exponentially:
1st loss → wait 2 bars
2nd loss → wait 4 bars
3rd loss → wait 8 bars
4th loss → wait 16 bars
and so on, using the formula 2ⁿ.
## Configurable Parameters
### Cooldown Pause Calculation
The settings allow you to define the SL and TP as percentages of the position value.
The "Cooldown Pause Calculation" option determines how the next cooldown duration is computed after a losing trade.
The system keeps track of how many consecutive losses have occurred since the last profitable trade. That counter is then used to compute how many bars we must wait before opening the next position.
### Maximum Cooldown
The "Max Cooldown Candles" setting defines the maximum number of bars we are allowed to wait before placing a new trade. This prevents the strategy from “locking itself out” for too long and mitigates the fear of missing out (FOMO).
Once the cooldown duration reaches this maximum, the system essentially wraps around and starts the progression again. In the script, this is handled using a simple modulo operation based on the chosen maximum.
Seawolf Pivot Hunter [Strategy]Overview
Seawolf Pivot Hunter is a practical trading strategy that enhances the classic pivot-box breakout system with a structured risk-management framework. Using ATR-based stop loss and take-profit calculations, position sizing, multi-layer filtering, and daily loss-limit protection, it provides a stable and sustainable trading environment. It preserves the strengths of the original version while adding systems designed to manage real-market risks more effectively.
Core Philosophy
The most important element in trading is not generating profits but controlling losses. Even the best entry signals cannot compensate for a single large loss that wipes out accumulated gains. This strategy precisely calculates the risk exposure for every trade and includes multiple layers of protection to safeguard the account under worst-case scenarios.

Risk-Management System
Every trade automatically receives a stop-loss level at the moment of entry. The stop is calculated using ATR, adjusting dynamically to market volatility. When volatility increases, the stop widens; in stable conditions, it tightens to reduce unnecessary exits. The default distance is set to twice the ATR.
The standard take-profit level is set to four times the ATR, providing a 1:2 risk-reward structure. With this ratio, even a 50 percent win rate can produce profitability—while the typical trade structure aims for small losses and larger gains to support long-term performance.
A trailing-stop option is also available. Once the trade moves into profit, the stop level automatically trails behind price action, protecting gains while allowing the position to expand when momentum continues.
Position size is calculated automatically based on the selected risk percentage. For example, with a 2 percent risk setting, each stop-loss hit would result in exactly 2 percent of the account balance being lost. This ensures a consistent risk profile regardless of account size.
The daily loss-limit function prevents excessive drawdown by halting new trades once a predefined loss threshold is reached. This helps avoid emotional decision-making after consecutive losses.
A daily trade-limit feature is included as well. The default is 10 trades per day, protecting traders from overtrading and unnecessary fees.
Filtering System
The volume filter analyzes buying and selling pressure within the pivot box. Long trades are allowed only when buy volume exceeds a specified percentage; shorts require sell-volume dominance. The default threshold is 55 percent.
The trend filter uses an EMA to determine market direction. When price is above the 200-EMA, only long signals are permitted; when below, only shorts are allowed. This ensures alignment with the broader trend and reduces counter-trend risk.
Each filter can be toggled independently. More filters generally reduce trade frequency but improve signal quality.
Real-Time Monitoring
A real-time statistics panel displays daily profit/loss, the number of trades taken, the maximum allowed trades, and whether new trades are currently permitted. When daily limits are reached, the panel provides clear visual warnings.
Entry Logic
A trade is validated only after a pivot-box breakout occurs and all active filters—volume, trend, daily loss limit, and daily trade limit—are satisfied. Position size, stop loss, and take-profit levels are then calculated automatically. Entry arrows and labels on the chart help with later review and analysis.
Setup Guide
Risk percentage is the most critical setting. Beginners should start at 1 percent. Anything above 3 percent becomes aggressive.
ATR stop-loss multipliers should reflect asset volatility.
ATR take-profit multipliers determine reward ratio; 4.0 is the standard.
Volume thresholds are typically set between 50–60 percent depending on market conditions.
Daily loss limits are typically 2–5 percent of the account.
Trading Strategy
This strategy performs best in trending environments and works especially well on the 4-hour and daily charts. New users should begin with all filters enabled and trade conservatively. A minimum of one month of paper trading is recommended before committing real capital.
Suitable Users
The strategy is ideal for beginners who lack risk-management experience as well as advanced traders seeking a customizable structure. It is particularly helpful for traders who struggle with emotional decision-making, as pre-defined limits and rules enforce discipline.
Backtesting Guide
Use at least 2–3 years of historical data that includes bullish, bearish, and sideways conditions.
Target metrics:
Sharpe ratio: 1.5 or higher
Maximum drawdown: below 25 percent
Win rate: 40 percent or higher
Total trades: at least 100 for statistical relevance
Optimization Precautions
Avoid over-fitting parameters. Always test values around the “best” setting to verify stability.
Out-of-sample testing is essential for confirming robustness.
Test across multiple assets and timeframes to ensure consistency.
Live Deployment Roadmap
After successful backtesting, follow a gradual rollout:
Paper trading for at least one month
Small-account live testing
Slow scaling as performance stabilizes
Continuous Improvement
Keep a detailed trading journal and evaluate performance each quarter using recent data.
Adapt settings as market conditions evolve.
Conclusion
Seawolf Pivot Hunter aims to provide more than simple trade signals—it is designed to create a stable and sustainable trading system built on disciplined risk management. No strategy is perfect, and long-term success depends on consistency, patience, and strict adherence to rules. Start small, verify results, and scale progressively.

리스크 관리 시스템
모든 거래는 진입과 동시에 손절매 주문이 자동 설정됩니다. 손절가는 ATR을 기준으로 계산되며, 시장의 변동성에 따라 자동으로 조정됩니다. 변동성이 큰 시장에서는 넓은 손절폭을, 안정적인 시장에서는 좁은 손절폭을 사용해 불필요한 청산을 줄입니다. 기본값은 ATR의 2배입니다.
목표가는 ATR의 4배를 기본값으로 설정하여 손익비 1:2 구조를 유지합니다. 승률이 50퍼센트만 되어도 수익성이 가능하며, 실제로는 손절은 짧고 이익은 길게 가져가는 방식으로 장기 성과를 확보합니다.
트레일링 스톱 기능도 제공됩니다. 포지션이 수익 구간에 들어서면 손절가가 자동으로 함께 움직이며 수익을 보호합니다. 이 기능은 사용자가 켜거나 끌 수 있습니다.
포지션 크기는 리스크 퍼센트 기반으로 자동 계산됩니다. 예를 들어 리스크를 2퍼센트로 설정하면 손절 시 계좌 자산의 2퍼센트만 잃도록 수량이 조절됩니다. 계좌 크기와 무관하게 항상 일정한 비율의 리스크만 감수하게 되는 방식입니다.
일일 손실 제한 기능은 하루에 허용 가능한 최대 손실을 초과하지 않도록 합니다. 지정 금액에 도달하면 당일 거래는 더 이상 실행되지 않습니다. 감정적 거래를 막고 일정한 규율을 유지하도록 돕습니다.
일일 거래 횟수 제한 기능도 제공됩니다. 기본값은 하루 10회로, 과매매와 수수료 증가를 방지합니다.
필터링 시스템
볼륨 필터는 박스 구간 내 매수·매도 압력을 분석해 진입 신호를 검증합니다. 롱은 매수 볼륨이 일정 비율 이상일 때, 숏은 매도 볼륨이 우세할 때만 진입합니다. 기본값은 55퍼센트입니다.
추세 필터는 EMA를 사용하며, 가격이 200EMA 위에 있을 때는 롱 신호만, 아래에서는 숏 신호만 허용합니다. 큰 추세 방향에만 거래하여 역추세 리스크를 줄입니다.
필터는 독립적으로 켜고 끌 수 있으며, 필터가 많을수록 거래 횟수는 줄지만 신호 품질은 향상됩니다.
실시간 모니터링
화면에 실시간 통계 테이블이 표시되며, 일일 손익, 거래 횟수, 최대 허용 횟수, 현재 거래 가능 여부가 즉시 확인됩니다. 손실 제한 또는 거래 제한 도달 시 시각적으로 표시됩니다.
진입 로직
피봇 박스 브레이크아웃 발생 후 볼륨 필터, 추세 필터, 일일 손실·거래 제한을 모두 통과하면 포지션 크기를 계산하고 손절·목표가를 설정한 뒤 진입합니다. 진입 지점에는 화살표와 레이블이 표시되어 분석에 도움을 줍니다.
설정 가이드
리스크 퍼센트는 가장 중요한 설정입니다. 초보자는 1퍼센트를 추천하며 3퍼센트 이상은 위험합니다.
손절 ATR 배수는 자산 특성에 맞게 조절합니다.
목표가 ATR 배수는 손익비를 결정하며 기본값은 4.0입니다.
볼륨 비율은 시장 상황에 따라 50~60퍼센트 내외로 조정합니다.
일일 손실 제한은 계좌의 2~5퍼센트 수준이 적절합니다.
사용 전략
추세가 명확한 시장에서 가장 효과적이며, 4시간봉 또는 일봉을 추천합니다. 초반에는 모든 필터를 켜고 보수적으로 시작하며, 최소 한 달간 페이퍼 트레이딩을 권장합니다.
적합한 사용자
리스크 관리 경험이 부족한 초보자부터, 커스터마이징을 원하는 경험자까지 폭넓게 적합합니다. 감정적 트레이딩을 억제하는 기능이 있어 규율 유지가 어렵던 트레이더에게 특히 유용합니다.
백테스트 가이드
최소 2~3년 데이터로 테스트하며, 상승·하락·횡보 모두 포함해야 합니다.
샤프비율 1.5 이상, 최대 낙폭 25퍼센트 이하를 목표로 합니다.
승률은 40퍼센트 이상이면 충분합니다.
최소 100회 이상 거래가 있어야 통계적으로 의미가 있습니다.
최적화 주의사항
과최적화를 피하고 주변 값도 테스트해야 합니다.
샘플 외 기간 검증은 필수입니다.
여러 자산·여러 시간대에서 테스트하여 일관성을 확인해야 합니다.
실전 적용 로드맵
백테스트 후 바로 실전 투입하지 말고, 한 달 이상의 페이퍼 트레이딩 → 소액 실전 → 점진적 확대 순으로 진행합니다.
지속적 개선
일지를 기록하고 분기마다 최신 데이터로 점검합니다.
시장 변화에 따라 유연하게 조정해야 합니다.
마치며
Seawolf Pivot Hunter는 단순 신호 제공을 넘어, 안전하고 지속 가능한 트레이딩 환경 구축을 목표로 합니다. 어떤 전략도 완벽할 수 없으며, 장기적 성공을 위해서는 규칙 준수와 인내가 가장 중요합니다. 충분한 검증을 거쳐 작은 금액으로 시작하고 점진적으로 확장해나가는 접근을 추천합니다.
면책 조항
이 전략은 교육 및 연구 목적이며, 과거 성과는 미래를 보장하지 않습니다. 모든 투자 결정은 본인의 판단과 책임 하에 이루어져야 합니다.

Traders need this because it’s a complete, original system that blends accessibility, sophistication, and style. It’s your edge to trade smarter, not harder, in a market full of traps and imitators.
1. Divergence Detection (Core Signal Logic)
The strategy’s core is its ability to detect bullish and bearish divergences between price and On-Balance Volume (OBV), pinpointing reversals with surgical accuracy.
How It Works:
Price Slope: Uses linear regression over a lookback (default: 9 bars) to measure price momentum (priceSlope).
OBV Slope: OBV tracks volume flow (+volume if price rises, -volume if falls), with its slope calculated similarly (obvSlope).
Bullish Divergence: Price slope negative (falling), OBV slope positive (rising), and price above 50-bar SMA (trend_ma).
Bearish Divergence: Price slope positive (rising), OBV slope negative (falling), and price below 50-bar SMA.
Smoothing: Requires two consecutive divergence bars (bullDiv2, bearDiv2) to confirm signals, reducing false positives.
Strength: Divergence intensity (divStrength = |priceSlope * obvSlope| * sensitivity) is normalized (0–1, divStrengthNorm) for visuals.
Why It’s Brilliant:
- Divergences catch hidden momentum shifts, often exploited by institutions, giving you an edge on reversals.
- The 50-bar SMA filter aligns signals with the broader trend, avoiding choppy markets.
- Adjustable lookback (min: 3) and sensitivity (default: 1.0) let you tune for different instruments or timeframes.
2. Filters for Precision
Four advanced filters ensure signals are high-probability and market-aligned, cutting through the noise of volatile futures.
Z-Score Filter:
Logic: Calculates z-score ((close - SMA) / stdev) over a lookback (default: 50 bars). Blocks entries if |z-score| > threshold (default: 1.5) unless disabled (useZFilter = false).
Impact: Avoids trades during extreme price moves (e.g., blow-off tops), keeping you in statistically safe zones.
ATR Percentile Volatility Filter:
Logic: Tracks 14-bar ATR in a 100-bar window (default). Requires current ATR > 80th percentile (percATR) to trade (tradeOk).
Impact: Ensures sufficient volatility for meaningful moves, filtering out low-volume chop.
Multi-Timeframe (HTF) Trend Filter:
Logic: Uses a 50-bar SMA on a higher timeframe (default: 60min). Longs require price > HTF MA (bullTrendOK), shorts < HTF MA (bearTrendOK).
Impact: Aligns trades with the bigger trend, reducing counter-trend losses.
US Session Filter:
Logic: Restricts trading to 9:30am–4:00pm ET (default: enabled, useSession = true) using America/New_York timezone.
Impact: Focuses on high-liquidity hours, avoiding overnight spreads and erratic moves.
Evolution:
- These filters create a robust signal pipeline, ensuring trades are timed for optimal conditions.
- Customizable inputs (e.g., zThreshold, atrPercentile) let traders adapt to their style without compromising quality.
3. Risk Management
The strategy’s risk controls are a masterclass in balancing aggression and safety, protecting capital in volatile markets.
Daily Loss Kill Switch:
Logic: Tracks daily loss (dayStartEquity - strategy.equity). Halts trading if loss ≥ $300 (default) and enabled (killSwitch = true, killSwitchActive).
Impact: Caps daily downside, crucial during events like April 27, 2025 ES slippage.
Rolling Drawdown Kill Switch:
Logic: Monitors drawdown (rollingPeak - strategy.equity) over 100 bars (default). Stops trading if > $1000 (rollingKill).
Impact: Prevents prolonged losing streaks, preserving capital for better setups.
Dynamic Stop-Loss and Take-Profit:
Logic: Stops = entry ± ATR * multiplier (default: 1.0x, stopDist). TPs = entry ± ATR * 1.5x (profitDist). Longs: stop below, TP above; shorts: vice versa.
Impact: Adapts to volatility, keeping stops tight but realistic, with TPs targeting 1.5:1 reward/risk.
Max Bars in Trade:
Logic: Closes trades after 8 bars (default) if not already exited.
Impact: Frees capital from stagnant trades, maintaining efficiency.
Kill Switch Buffer Dashboard:
Logic: Shows smallest buffer ($300 - daily loss or $1000 - rolling DD). Displays 0 (red) if kill switch active, else buffer (green).
Impact: Real-time risk visibility, letting traders adjust dynamically.
Why It’s Brilliant:
- Kill switches and ATR-based exits create a safety net, rare in generic scripts.
- Customizable risk inputs (maxDailyLoss, dynamicStopMult) suit different account sizes.
- Buffer metric empowers disciplined trading, a DAFE signature.
4. Trade Entry and Exit Logic
The entry/exit rules are precise, filtered, and adaptive, ensuring trades are deliberate and profitable.
Entry Conditions:
Long Entry: bullDiv2, cooldown passed (canSignal), ATR filter passed (tradeOk), in US session (inSession), no kill switches (not killSwitchActive, not rollingKill), z-score OK (zOk), HTF trend bullish (bullTrendOK), no existing long (lastDirection != 1, position_size <= 0). Closes shorts first.
Short Entry: Same, but for bearDiv2, bearTrendOK, no long (lastDirection != -1, position_size >= 0). Closes longs first.
Adaptive Cooldown: Default 2 bars (cooldownBars). Doubles (up to 10) after a losing trade, resets after wins (dynamicCooldown).
Exit Conditions:
Stop-Loss/Take-Profit: Set per trade (ATR-based). Exits on stop/TP hits.
Other Exits: Closes if maxBarsInTrade reached, ATR filter fails, or kill switch activates.
Position Management: Ensures no conflicting positions, closing opposites before new entries.
Built To Be Reliable and Consistent:
- Multi-filtered entries minimize false signals, a stark contrast to basic scripts.
- Adaptive cooldown prevents overtrading, especially after losses.
- Clean position handling ensures smooth execution, even in fast markets.
5. DAFE Visuals
The visuals are a DAFE hallmark, blending function with clean flair to make signals intuitive and charts stunning.
Aurora Bands:
Display: Bands around price during divergences (bullish: below low, bearish: above high), sized by ATR * bandwidth (default: 0.5).
Colors: Aqua (bullish), fuchsia (bearish), with transparency tied to divStrengthNorm.
Purpose: Highlights divergence zones with a glowing, futuristic vibe.
Divergence Orbs:
Display: Large/small circles (aqua below for bullish, fuchsia above for bearish) when bullDiv2/bearDiv2 and canSignal. Labels show strength (0–1).
Purpose: Pinpoints entries with eye-catching clarity.
Gradient Background:
Display: Green (bullish), red (bearish), or gray (neutral), 90–95% transparent.
Purpose: Sets the market mood without clutter.
Strategy Plots:
- Stop/TP Lines: Red (stops), green (TPs) for active trades.
- HTF MA: Yellow line for trend context.
- Z-Score: Blue step-line (if enabled).
- Kill Switch Warning: Red background flash when active.

Sunil 2 Bar Breakout StrategyDetailed Explanation of the Sunil 2 Bar Breakout Strategy
Introduction
The Sunil 2 Bar Breakout Strategy is a simple yet effective price-action-based approach designed to identify breakout opportunities in financial markets. This strategy analyzes the movement of the last three candles to detect momentum and initiates trades in the direction of the breakout. It is equipped with a built-in stop-loss mechanism to protect capital, making it suitable for traders looking for a structured and disciplined trading system.
The strategy works well across different timeframes and asset classes, including indices, stocks, forex, and cryptocurrencies. Its versatility makes it ideal for both intraday and swing trading.
Core Concept
The strategy revolves around two primary conditions: breakout identification and risk management.
Breakout Identification:
Long Trade Setup: The strategy identifies bullish breakouts when:
The current candle's closing price is higher than the previous candle's closing price.
The high of the previous candle is greater than the highs of the two candles before it.
Short Trade Setup: The strategy identifies bearish breakouts when:
The current candle's closing price is lower than the previous candle's closing price.
The low of the previous candle is lower than the lows of the two candles before it.
Risk Management:
Stop-Loss: For each trade, a stop-loss is automatically set:
For long trades, the stop-loss is set to the low of the previous candle.
For short trades, the stop-loss is set to the high of the previous candle.
This ensures that losses are minimized if the breakout fails.
Exit Logic:
The trade is closed automatically when the stop-loss is hit.
This approach maintains discipline and prevents emotional trading.
Strategy Workflow
Entry Criteria:
Long Entry: A long trade is triggered when:
The current close is greater than the previous close.
The high of the previous candle exceeds the highs of the two candles before it.
Short Entry: A short trade is triggered when:
The current close is less than the previous close.
The low of the previous candle is below the lows of the two candles before it.
Stop-Loss Placement:
For long trades, the stop-loss is set at the low of the previous candle.
For short trades, the stop-loss is set at the high of the previous candle.
Trade Management:
Trades are exited automatically if the stop-loss level is hit.
The strategy avoids re-entering trades until new breakout conditions are met.
Default Settings
Position Sizing:
The default position size is set to 1% of the account equity. This ensures proper risk management and prevents overexposure to the market.
Stop-Loss:
Stop-loss levels are automatically calculated based on the previous candle’s high or low.
Timeframes:
The strategy is versatile and works across multiple timeframes. However, it is recommended to test it on 15-minute, 1-hour, and daily charts for optimal performance.
Key Features
Automated Trade Execution:
The strategy handles both trade entry and exit automatically based on pre-defined conditions.
Built-In Risk Management:
The automatic stop-loss placement ensures losses are minimized on failed breakouts.
Works Across Markets:
The strategy is compatible with a wide range of instruments, including indices, stocks, forex, and cryptocurrencies.
Clear Signals:
Entry and exit points are straightforward and based on objective conditions, reducing ambiguity.
Versatility:
Can be used for both day trading and swing trading, depending on the chosen timeframe.
Best Practices for Using This Strategy
Backtesting:
Test the strategy on your chosen instrument and timeframe using TradingView's Strategy Tester to evaluate its performance.
Market Conditions:
The strategy performs best in trending markets or during periods of high volatility. Avoid using it in range-bound or choppy markets.
Position Sizing:
Use the default position size (1% of equity) or adjust based on your risk tolerance and account size.
Instrument Selection:
Focus on instruments with good liquidity and volatility, such as indices (e.g., NIFTY, BANKNIFTY), forex pairs, or major cryptocurrencies (e.g., Bitcoin, Ethereum).
Potential Enhancements
To make the strategy even more robust, consider adding the following optional features:
Stop-Loss Multiplier:
Allow users to customize the stop-loss distance as a multiple of the default level (e.g., 1.5x the low or high of the previous candle).
Take-Profit Levels:
Add user-defined take-profit levels, such as a fixed risk-reward ratio (e.g., 1:2).
Time Filter:
Include an option to restrict trading to specific market hours (e.g., avoid low-liquidity times).
Conclusion
The Sunil 2 Bar Breakout Strategy is an excellent tool for traders looking to capitalize on breakout opportunities while maintaining disciplined risk management. Its simplicity, combined with its effectiveness, makes it suitable for traders of all experience levels. By adhering to the clearly defined rules, traders can achieve consistent results while avoiding emotional trading decisions.
This strategy is a reliable addition to any trader’s toolbox and is designed to work seamlessly across different market conditions and instruments.
Velocity/Volatility/Volume StrategyThe "Vel/Vty/Vol Strategy" is a momentum-based trading approach designed to take advantage of strong price movements that are confirmed by both volatility and volume (if enabled). It provides a high level of customization, allowing traders to adjust various settings based on market conditions and individual preferences. By combining three critical indicators—velocity, volatility (measured through Bollinger Band Width), and an optional volume filter—the strategy generates trade signals for both long and short positions. Here’s a comprehensive explanation of how the strategy works, how the parameters can be customized, and how those adjustments benefit users.
At its core, the strategy focuses on velocity, which measures the speed at which price is changing over time. This is a key indicator of momentum, with a "StrongUp" signal indicating bullish momentum and a "StrongDown" signal suggesting bearish momentum. In addition to velocity, the strategy factors in acceleration, which helps gauge whether momentum is building or weakening. The second essential component is Bollinger Band Width (BBW), which measures volatility in the market. When the BBW expands, it signals increasing volatility, a condition that must be met in combination with a velocity signal to generate a trade. Lastly, the strategy includes an optional Volume Oscillator to filter trades. When this volume filter is enabled, trades will only be executed if there’s an increase in volume, further validating market activity.
The strategy generates long and short trade signals based on specific conditions. A long trade is triggered when there is a strong upward velocity, accompanied by an increase in Bollinger Band Width, indicating both momentum and heightened volatility. If the volume filter is toggled on, a rise in volume must also confirm the signal. Similarly, a short trade is initiated when a strong downward velocity is detected, again paired with an increase in volatility and, optionally, a volume rise. This ensures that trades occur during periods of heightened market activity, reducing the likelihood of false signals.
To help manage risk, the strategy includes several customizable tools. Users can set take profit levels to automatically close positions and lock in gains once a predefined profit percentage is reached. For example, if a 2% take profit is set, a long position will be closed once the price has risen by 2%. Additionally, a trailing take profit option can be enabled, allowing the strategy to dynamically adjust the take-profit target as the market moves in the user’s favor. This ensures that profits are locked in as long as the market continues to trend positively, while providing protection in case of a reversal. The strategy also includes a trailing stop-loss feature, which adjusts the stop price as the market moves in favor of the trade, helping to minimize losses and protect gains.
The strategy offers a variety of parameters that can be customized to suit different trading styles and market conditions. The velocity lookback period controls how far back the strategy looks to calculate velocity. A shorter lookback makes the strategy more sensitive to recent price changes, generating more signals, which can benefit day traders or those seeking to capture short-term price swings. Conversely, a longer lookback smooths out the velocity calculation, reducing false signals and making the strategy more suitable for traders seeking to capture larger trends. Similarly, the Bollinger Band Width (BBW) length can be adjusted to control how far back the strategy looks to calculate volatility. A shorter BBW length makes the strategy more sensitive to volatility spikes, useful in rapidly changing markets. In contrast, a longer BBW length filters out short-term noise and focuses on more sustainable volatility shifts, better suited for slower, more stable markets.
The volume filter is another powerful feature that can be toggled on or off. When turned on, the strategy will only execute trades if there is an increase in volume alongside velocity and volatility signals. This helps filter out false signals in low-volume markets, ensuring that price movements are supported by actual market activity. If the volume filter is turned off, the strategy focuses purely on price and volatility changes, which can be useful in markets where volume data is unreliable or less relevant.
The take profit percentage can be adjusted to define how aggressively or conservatively profits are locked in. A lower take profit percentage allows traders to capture smaller, quicker profits, which can be advantageous in volatile markets. A higher take profit percentage suits traders who prefer to capture larger moves, allowing them to stay in trades longer to benefit from extended trends. Similarly, the trailing take profit percentage determines how tightly the strategy follows market prices as they move in favor of the trade. A tighter trailing percentage ensures that profits are locked in quickly, while a wider trailing percentage gives trades more room to run, ideal for capturing large trends.
The stop loss percentage is another key setting that controls how much risk a trader is willing to take before the position is closed. A tighter stop loss minimizes losses but may result in more frequent stop-outs, particularly in volatile markets. A wider stop loss provides more room for trades to develop, which is useful for traders aiming to capture longer trends despite short-term fluctuations. Additionally, the velocity thresholds can be adjusted to set how sensitive the strategy is to price movements. Lower thresholds increase sensitivity, generating more signals in fast-moving markets, while higher thresholds filter out weaker signals, focusing on larger momentum shifts.
The strategy also allows users to define a time range during which it is active, offering flexibility in backtesting and optimizing for specific market conditions. By limiting the strategy to certain periods, users can tailor it to seasonal trends or historical data that matches their current trading environment.
The flexibility of this strategy makes it suitable for a wide range of traders. Day traders can benefit from adjusting the velocity and BBW lookback periods, tightening take profit and stop loss settings to capture short, fast price movements in highly volatile markets. Trend traders can lengthen the lookback periods and widen the velocity thresholds to capture larger, sustained moves while riding out short-term volatility. Traders with a lower risk tolerance can enable the volume filter and tighten stop losses to reduce false signals and minimize losses. On the other hand, aggressive traders can widen the take profit and trailing stop percentages to allow trades to develop fully, maximizing potential gains in trending markets.
RSI Trend Following StrategyOverview
The RSI Trend Following Strategy utilizes Relative Strength Index (RSI) to enter the trade for the potential trend continuation. It uses Stochastic indicator to check is the price is not in overbought territory and the MACD to measure the current price momentum. Moreover, it uses the 200-period EMA to filter the counter trend trades with the higher probability. The strategy opens only long trades.
Unique Features
Dynamic stop-loss system: Instead of fixed stop-loss level strategy utilizes average true range (ATR) multiplied by user given number subtracted from the position entry price as a dynamic stop loss level.
Configurable Trading Periods: Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Two layers trade filtering system: Strategy utilizes MACD and Stochastic indicators measure the current momentum and overbought condition and use 200-period EMA to filter trades against major trend.
Trailing take profit level: After reaching the trailing profit activation level script activates the trailing of long trade using EMA. More information in methodology.
Wide opportunities for strategy optimization: Flexible strategy settings allows users to optimize the strategy entries and exits for chosen trading pair and time frame.
Methodology
The strategy opens long trade when the following price met the conditions:
RSI is above 50 level.
MACD line shall be above the signal line
Both lines of Stochastic shall be not higher than 80 (overbought territory)
Candle’s low shall be above the 200 period EMA
When long trade is executed, strategy set the stop-loss level at the price ATR multiplied by user-given value below the entry price. This level is recalculated on every next candle close, adjusting to the current market volatility.
At the same time strategy set up the trailing stop validation level. When the price crosses the level equals entry price plus ATR multiplied by user-given value script starts to trail the price with trailing EMA(by default = 20 period). If price closes below EMA long trade is closed. When the trailing starts, script prints the label “Trailing Activated”.
Strategy settings
In the inputs window user can setup the following strategy settings:
ATR Stop Loss (by default = 1.75)
ATR Trailing Profit Activation Level (by default = 2.25)
MACD Fast Length (by default = 12, period of averaging fast MACD line)
MACD Fast Length (by default = 26, period of averaging slow MACD line)
MACD Signal Smoothing (by default = 9, period of smoothing MACD signal line)
Oscillator MA Type (by default = EMA, available options: SMA, EMA)
Signal Line MA Type (by default = EMA, available options: SMA, EMA)
RSI Length (by default = 14, period for RSI calculation)
Trailing EMA Length (by default = 20, period for EMA, which shall be broken close the trade after trailing profit activation)
Justification of Methodology
This trading strategy is designed to leverage a combination of technical indicators—Relative Strength Index (RSI), Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), Stochastic Oscillator, and the 200-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA)—to determine optimal entry points for long trades. Additionally, the strategy uses the Average True Range (ATR) for dynamic risk management to adapt to varying market conditions. Let's look in details for which purpose each indicator is used for and why it is used in this combination.
Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a momentum indicator used in technical analysis to measure the speed and change of price movements in a financial market. It helps traders identify whether an asset is potentially overbought (overvalued) or oversold (undervalued), which can indicate a potential reversal or continuation of the current trend.
How RSI Works? RSI tracks the strength of recent price changes. It compares the average gains and losses over a specific period (usually 14 periods) to assess the momentum of an asset. Average gain is the average of all positive price changes over the chosen period. It reflects how much the price has typically increased during upward movements. Average loss is the average of all negative price changes over the same period. It reflects how much the price has typically decreased during downward movements.
RSI calculates these average gains and losses and compares them to create a value between 0 and 100. If the RSI value is above 70, the asset is generally considered overbought, meaning it might be due for a price correction or reversal downward. Conversely, if the RSI value is below 30, the asset is considered oversold, suggesting it could be poised for an upward reversal or recovery. RSI is a useful tool for traders to determine market conditions and make informed decisions about entering or exiting trades based on the perceived strength or weakness of an asset's price movements.
This strategy uses RSI as a short-term trend approximation. If RSI crosses over 50 it means that there is a high probability of short-term trend change from downtrend to uptrend. Therefore RSI above 50 is our first trend filter to look for a long position.
The MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) is a popular momentum and trend-following indicator used in technical analysis. It helps traders identify changes in the strength, direction, momentum, and duration of a trend in an asset's price.
The MACD consists of three components:
MACD Line: This is the difference between a short-term Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and a long-term EMA, typically calculated as: MACD Line = 12 period EMA − 26 period EMA
Signal Line: This is a 9-period EMA of the MACD Line, which helps to identify buy or sell signals. When the MACD Line crosses above the Signal Line, it can be a bullish signal (suggesting a buy); when it crosses below, it can be a bearish signal (suggesting a sell).
Histogram: The histogram shows the difference between the MACD Line and the Signal Line, visually representing the momentum of the trend. Positive histogram values indicate increasing bullish momentum, while negative values indicate increasing bearish momentum.
This strategy uses MACD as a second short-term trend filter. When MACD line crossed over the signal line there is a high probability that uptrend has been started. Therefore MACD line above signal line is our additional short-term trend filter. In conjunction with RSI it decreases probability of following false trend change signals.
The Stochastic Indicator is a momentum oscillator that compares a security's closing price to its price range over a specific period. It's used to identify overbought and oversold conditions. The indicator ranges from 0 to 100, with readings above 80 indicating overbought conditions and readings below 20 indicating oversold conditions.
It consists of two lines:
%K: The main line, calculated using the formula (CurrentClose−LowestLow)/(HighestHigh−LowestLow)×100 . Highest and lowest price taken for 14 periods.
%D: A smoothed moving average of %K, often used as a signal line.
This strategy uses stochastic to define the overbought conditions. The logic here is the following: we want to avoid long trades in the overbought territory, because when indicator reaches it there is a high probability that the potential move is gonna be restricted.
The 200-period EMA is a widely recognized indicator for identifying the long-term trend direction. The strategy only trades in the direction of this primary trend to increase the probability of successful trades. For instance, when the price is above the 200 EMA, only long trades are considered, aligning with the overarching trend direction.
Therefore, strategy uses combination of RSI and MACD to increase the probability that price now is in short-term uptrend, Stochastic helps to avoid the trades in the overbought (>80) territory. To increase the probability of opening long trades in the direction of a main trend and avoid local bounces we use 200 period EMA.
ATR is used to adjust the strategy risk management to the current market volatility. If volatility is low, we don’t need the large stop loss to understand the there is a high probability that we made a mistake opening the trade. User can setup the settings ATR Stop Loss and ATR Trailing Profit Activation Level to realize his own risk to reward preferences, but the unique feature of a strategy is that after reaching trailing profit activation level strategy is trying to follow the trend until it is likely to be finished instead of using fixed risk management settings. It allows sometimes to be involved in the large movements.

Our indicator includes various optimization options designed to help you find the most effective settings based on historical data. There are 5 optimization modes, each offering unique benefits for every trader
Trend Entry - Optimization of the best settings for trend-following trades. The strategy will enter trades only in the direction of the trend. If the trend is upward, it will look for long entry points and vice versa.
Counter Trend Entry - Finding setups against the trend. If the trend is upward, the script will search for short entry points. This is the opposite of trend entry optimization.
Stop Loss - Identifying stop-loss points that showed the best historical performance for the specific setup you have configured. This helps in finding effective exit points to minimize losses.
Take Profit - Determining targets for the configured setup based on historical performance, helping to identify potentially profitable take profit levels.
Trailing Stop - Finding optimal percentages for the trailing stop function based on historical data, which can potentially increase the profit of your trades.
Ability to set parameters for auto-optimization within a specified range. For example, if you choose FixRR TP from 1 to 10, the indicator will automatically test all possible Risk Reward Take Profit variations from 1 to 10 and display the results for each parameter individually.
Ability to set initial deposit parameters, position commissions, and risk per trade as a fixed percentage or fixed amount. Additionally, you can set the maximum leverage for a trade.
There are times when the stop loss is very close to the entry point, and adhering to the risk per trade values set in the settings may not allow for such a loss in any situation. That’s why we added the ability to set the maximum possible leverage, allowing you to test your trading strategy even with very tight stop losses.
Duplicated Smart Money Structure settings from our Advanced SMC indicator that you can adjust to match your trading style flexibly. All these settings will be taken into account during the optimization process or when manually calculating settings.
Additionally, you can test your strategy based on higher timeframe order blocks. For example, you can test a strategy on a 1-minute chart while displaying order blocks from a 15-minute timeframe. The auto-optimizer will consider all these parameters, including higher timeframe order blocks, and will enter trades based on these order blocks.
Highly flexible dashboard and results optimization settings allow you to display the tables you need and sort results by six different criteria: Profit Factor, Profit, Winrate, Max Drawdown, Wins, and Trades. This enables you to find the exact setup you desire, based on these comprehensive data points.
🟠 ALERT CUSTOMIZATION
With this indicator, you can set up buy and sell alerts based on the test results, allowing you to create a comprehensive trading strategy. This feature enables you to receive real-time signals, making it a powerful tool for implementing your trading strategies.
🟠 STRATEGY PROPERTIES
For backtesting, we used realistic initial data for entering trades, such as:
Starting balance: $1000
Commission: 0.01%
Risk per trade: 1%
To ensure realistic data, we used the above settings. We offer two methods for calculating your order size, and in our case, we used a 1% risk per trade. Here’s what it means:
Risk per trade: This is the maximum loss from your deposit if the trade goes against you. The trade volume can change depending on your stop-loss distance from the entry point. Here’s the formula we use to calculate the possible volume for a single trade:
1. quantity = percentage_risk * balance / loss_per_1_contract (incl. fee)
Then, we calculate the maximum allowed volume based on the specified maximum leverage:
2. max_quantity = maxLeverage * balance / entry_price
3. If quantity < max_quantity, meaning the leverage is less than the maximum allowed, we keep quantity. If quantity > max_quantity, we use max_quantity (the maximum allowed volume according to the set leverage).
This way, depending on the stop-loss distance, the position size can vary and be up to 100% of your deposit, but the loss in each trade will not exceed the set percentage, which in our case is 1% for this backtest. This is a standard risk calculation method based on your stop-loss distance.
🔸 Statistical Significance of Trade Data
In our strategy, you may notice there weren’t enough trades to form statistically significant data. This is inherent to the Smart Money Concept (SMC) strategy, where the focus is not on the number of trades but rather on the risk-to-reward ratio per trade. In SMC strategies, it’s crucial to avoid taking numerous uncertain setups and instead perform a comprehensive analysis of the market situation.
Therefore, our strategy results show fewer than 100 trades. It’s important to understand that this small sample size isn’t statistically significant and shouldn’t be relied upon for strategy analysis. Backtesting with a small number of trades should not be used to draw conclusions about the effectiveness of a strategy.
🔸 Versatile Use Cases
The methods of using this indicator are numerous, ranging from identifying potentially the best-performing order blocks on the chart to creating a comprehensive trading strategy based on the data provided by our indicator. We believe that every trader will find a valuable application for this tool, enhancing their entry and exit points in trades.

The aim of the strategy is to provide a trading system that catches fast trend reversals and uses a modified version of the Hull Moving Average. The HMA adeptly adapts to swift variations in price movements while offering better smoothing and utilizes a user selected moving averages, mitigating the smoothing effect and is controlled with a custom weight design.
Features
Customizable trading periods.
Customizable stop loss and take profit levels.
Adjustable date range for backtesting.
Allows setting of initial capital, commission type and value.
Provides visual aids for better understanding of the market trends.
Customize the visuals of the strategy.
Strategy Description
The Smart Exit HMA strategy offers the flexibility to use various types of moving averages, allowing customization of inputs for price calculation, period settings, and stop loss/take profit levels. The strategy relies on the Hull Moving Average (HMA) as a signal to execute trades. However, you have control over the signal frequency by selecting your preferred period value, which determines the number of candles used in the average calculation. This allows you to adapt the strategy to market tendencies and increase its effectiveness during clear trends.
The Smart Exit HMA strategy is designed to minimize lag associated with traditional moving averages, enabling it to respond more quickly to recent price movements based on your chosen period. It's worth noting that the strategy plots two lines on the graph: the average line and the square root line. Buy and sell signals are generated when both lines intersect, indicating favorable trading opportunities.
Inputs/Settings
Capital - If using any leverage multiply the amount of money to invest by the leverage, else input the amount to be invested in every trade.
Start date - The date from which the strategy should begin its analysis. Leave unchanged to start from the earliest available date based on your account's plan.
End date - The date until which the strategy should conduct its analysis. Leave unchanged to continue until the current date.
Period - The lookback period for the moving average calculation, a longer period will translate into fewer trades that last longer.
Stop loss - Allows the use of a stop loss for all trades.
Take profit - Activates the use of a take profit for all trades.
Stop loss value - The distance from the entry price at which the strategy should exit to prevent further losses.
Take profit value - The distance from the entry price at which the strategy should exit to secure profits.
Take profit % - The percentage of the capital to take as profit.
Stop loss % - The percentage of the capital to set as the maximum loss.
Candles exit - The minimum number of candles before the strategy is allowed to close a trade.
Candles change - The minimum number of candles before the strategy is allowed to change the current trend.
Moving average type - Determines the preprocessing method applied prior to utilizing the HMA.
Custom weight - Enables the utilization of a personalized weighting system for the HMA. If chosen, ensure that the sum of all weights equals 1.
Open weight - Determines the weight assigned to the candle's open value.
Close weight - Specifies the weight assigned to the candle's close value.
High weight - Sets the weight attributed to the candle's high value.
Low weight - Determines the weight assigned to the candle's low value.
Highlighter - Light coloring between the trend and average price of each bar.
Signal labels - View the labels indicating a new long or short position.
Exit labels - Displays the labels indicating exit points.
Color long - Sets the color scheme for a new long position.
Color short - Sets the color scheme for a new short position.
Color exit - Decides the color scheme for the exit tag and cross shown.
Indicator Visuals
The strategy plots the two trendlines on the chart and changes its color based on its direction. It also plots shapes on the chart to denote potential buy (Long) and sell (Short) points where the signals of short and long will appear, as well as crosses for the exit points.
Strategy Alerts
The strategy does not include built-in alerts. However, alerts can be added using the TradingView interface based on the strategy's buy, sell and exit conditions. This way you will be able to receive notifications on your computer or phone when a new signal goes out.
Details
Repainting: It is important to mention that the strategy can mark an uptrend signal during a candle and disappear at the end of it, so please just put long or short when the buy/sell conditions are followed and marked by the strategy at the end of each candle.
Conclusion
The Premium Smart Exit HMA is a versatile strategy that combines the benefits of the Hull Moving Average with adjustable parameters to suit individual trading styles. It offers a combination of speed and smoothness, which can be beneficial in volatile markets.

CryptoGraph StrategizerA complete system to backtest and automate comprehensive trading strategies
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🟣 How it works
This indicator allows you to use buy & sell signals from external CryptoGraph indicators, and fully backtest these signals in the TradingView strategy tester. After configuring buy & sell signals, the trader can look into exit criteria with this indicator. The indicator offers percentage based an ATR based take profit/stop losses, as well as safety orders (DCA) in order to get a better average entry price.
Once your strategy is fully set up to your desired results, it's possible to set up alerts and connect the indicator through an automation platform ( API connection), to your broker. Alertatron & Wick Hunter auto configuration is included, meaning everything configured in the indicator settings, will automatically be carried out with Alertatron & Wick Hunter syntaxes.
🟣 Features
• Multiple methods of scaling in entries (Multiple DCA/Pyramiding methods). There will be an option to scale up or down your volume per order and distance between orders.
• Multiple methods of determining order sizes. Methods are percentage risk per trade, dollar risk per trade, position size in contracts, position size in percentage and position size in dollar.
• Multiple methods and levels of taking profits and losses. Both percentage based and ATR based take profit and stop loss.
• Option to use external indicator buy/sell signals for entry.
• Visualised liquidation prices in TradingView (both cross and isolated)
• Information panel on chart with additional information regarding your strategy results
• Bot setup directly from indicator inputs tab with Wick Hunter & Alertatron
🟣 How to use
• Choose a symbol that corresponds to your bot pair and exchange
• Pick a chart time frame
• Always use the regular candle type
• Configure your deal start condition
• Configure your profit target
• Use the Take Profit/Stop Loss feature to set a target for profit and loss
• Configure your safety orders
• Check your backtest parameters
•Make sure that the initial capital and order size make sense. Since you can use pyramiding in your strategy with safety orders, the sum of all deals should not be bigger than the initial capital
Crypto Tipster v2---------------------
Crypto Tipster v2
Hello again! We're back with a drastically improved Crypto Tipster v2 Indicator using over a dozen all new algorithms based around Technical Analysis, Price Action, Momentum Swings and Reversal Detection.
We've taken our time with version 2 of Crypto Tipster, putting all our best practices to work and ensuring it performs superbly across numerous crypto markets and timeframes - we have focused our efforts towards the larger timeframes, 12H, 1D, 2D for example as we believe these to be the most consistent and predictable, and therefore the most profitable.
Trading on longer timeframes also reduces the overal cost of trading fee's as you'll be placing fewer trades over any given time period, whilst catching bigger swings and therefore earning a higher percentage per winning trade. Due to these bigger price swings you can de-leverage your trades too, making them inherintly safer and more controlled.
The final benefit to placing trades on longer timeframes is that you will not be tied down to your PC or laptop for hours on end waiting for a perfect entry or exit point, which increases the odds of placing bad/panic trades or even placing trades due to boredom! If you trade with Crypto Tipster v2 on a 1D timeframe, you will only ever have work to do once per day, at bar close; this is when trades are placed or exited, or stop losses/take profits are updated to new levels - easy!
Crypto Tipster v2 can help consistently catch tops and bottoms of trending markets whilst avoiding placing trades through choppy or ranging areas, this helps to not only maximise profits (what we're all after!) but also to minimise losses (equally important). We've tirelessly tested Crypto Tipster using literally thousands of variables across dozens of built-in algorithms over hundreds of trading pairs - lots of data to process!
The outcome is rather stunning and well worth checking out - we're rather proud of what we've achieved here, and we're pretty sure you're going to love it too!
---------------------
What's Included
- Chart Settings
The first section you'll come across, Chart Settings.
Here you'll find a few options regarding how your chosen market chart will look within TradingView and how Crypto Tipster will interact with this chart.
One of the most important Tick boxes is first on the list - "Show Backtest Results". This will change Crypto Tipster from displaying simple but easy-to-follow "Buy/Sell" labels into Strategy mode in which you can set up more complicated Stop Loss / Take profit settings as well as setting up Alerts for auto trading and other more complex functions (see How It Works for more info!
We've also included a "Trend Strength Bar Color" tick box which changes the color of the chart bars based on how strong Crypto Tipster is perceiving the current trend and in which direction.
- Trend Settings
"Trading Frequency" represents how often Crypto Tipster will be looking for a new trend / change in trend direction, and therefore how often it will be placing trades. By default this is set to "Normal" but can be changed to "Rapid" using the drop down menu.
"Entry Trend Strength" also determines how frequently trades are placed by selecting the strength of trend required before a trade is placed. The scale ranges from "1-5", with 1 being a low trend strength required, 5 being a very strong trend strength required.
Within the Trend Settings section you'll also find an "Avg Trend Strength over Bars" option. This allows you to average (mean) the current trend strength over a pre-determined amount (1-5) of previous chart bars - thus providing a potentially more consistent signal.
- Trade Settings
Trade Settings help Crypto Tipster determine what type of trades you're looking to place.
The overall "Trade Direction" will decide to either target only Long trades, only Short trades, or Both (default).
"Consecutive Trades in Same Direction" allows for pyramiding - whereby you can specify to allow for multiple trades of the same direction. Set to "1" as default allows for no extra pyramiding, max setting of "10".
- Trade Protection
Currently consisting of two functions, our Trade Protection section can help to achieve both the removal of false signals (whipsaws), and the extension of good trades without confusion during minor retracements.
"Chop Removal" can help to remove some whipsaw trades during ranging market conditions, therefore improving overal profitability by only targeting stronger trends. You have an option to choose from either "Weak" or "Strong" Chop Removal.
"Protection Filter" uses current trading criteria as defined by you, and uses it to check against a higher time frame than you're currently viewing. This can help to eliminate some bad trades at the expense of a potential lag on good trades.
- Stop Loss / Take Profit
Stop Losses should be a crucial aspect of everyone's trading system. They help prevent any trade from going too far in the wrong direction and limit losses.
Our "Stop Loss (%)" is quick and easy to set up, simply set the percentage offset from the entry price of trades and a fixed Stop Loss will be in place on all trades.
"Take Profit (%)" works in the same way as the Stop Loss mentioned above - simply set the percentage you'd like to exit a profitable trade at.
The "Trailing Stop (%)" is a little more complicated in that it will follow the trend of the trade a certain percentage away from the current market price - this is great for keeping yourself in a trade for as long as the trade is moving in the right direction.
- Extra Tools & Indicators
This is the section of Crypto Tipster that enables you to add some chart visuals to assist you with your preferred trading style.
"Potential Pivot Points" are not the same as actual pivot points - Potential pivot points will paint on the chart at bar close, giving you an immediate alert to potential tops/bottoms of market trends. You can choose to display only the strongest potential points, or include some of the weaker signals too.
"Actual Pivot Points" are inherintly more accurate than Potential pivot points, but do not paint on the chart until after a pre-determined amount of time has passed. These are great for placing stop losses/take profits or watching the market for breakouts or reversals.
"Support/Resistance Levels" plots up to 6 support and resistance horizontal lines based on recent price tops/bottoms. Use these to determine areas where price could rebound or break-through.
"Bollinger Band Breakout" - Bollinger bands are a tried and tested technical analysis tool, similar to pivot points and support/resistance lines, thee are another great tool to determine where price may retrace, consolidate or breakout.
- Ichimoku Cloud
Somewhat confusing and intimidating when you first come across this technical analysis indicator, the "Ichimoku Cloud" is one of our favorites. Assisting with the detection of Dynamic Support and Resistance levels, Momentum and Trend Direction all in one super indicator.
Although certain aspects of the Ichimoku Cloud are already present within Crypto Tipster v2 algorithms in order to offer you the best possible signals, we've also included a user-definable section of it's own so you can manually set up and use the cloud for your own trading needs, all cloud signals (and there are many) are available to set up as Alerts for your own needs or an Auto-Trading Bot.
- Custom Alerts for Any Signal
We've endeavoured to ensure that all signals, not just the Buy/Sell signals, are ready and available to create Alerts with; giving you the most opportunity to create a fully custom trading engine that suits your exact trading requirements.
This means you can set Alerts for any and all signals you can see on the chart when using Crypto Tipster v2, this includes Buy/Sell Signals, Trend Strength Signals, Choppy Market Signals, Stop Loss/Take Profit Signals, Pivot Points, S/R levels crossed above & below, Bollinger Band Breakout and several Ichimoku Cloud Signals.. the list goes on!
---------------------
We've tried to make Crypto Tipster as comprehensive and easy to understand as possible, we are however always in search of progression; we do really love to hear your feedback :)

Channels Strategy [JoseMetal]============
ENGLISH
============
- Description:
This strategy is based on Bollinger Bands / Keltner Channel price "rebounds" (the idea of price bouncing from one band to another).
The strategy has several customizable options, which allows you to refine the strategy for your asset and timeframe.
You can customize settings for ALL indicators, Bollinger Bands (period and standard deviation), Keltner Channel (period and ATR multiplier) and ATR (period).
- AVAILABLE INDICATORS:
You can pick Bollinger Bands or Keltner Channels for the strategy, the chosen indicator will be plotted as well.
- CUSTOM CONDITIONS TO ENTER A POSITION:
1. Price breaks the band (low below lower band for LONG or high above higher band for SHORT).
2. Same as 1 but THEN (next candle) price closes INSIDE the bands.
3. Price breaks the band AND CLOSES OUT of the band (lower band for LONG and higher band for SHORT).
4. Same as 3 but THEN (next candle) price closes INSIDE the bands.
- STOP LOSS OPTIONS:
1. Previous wick (low of previous candle if LONG and high or previous candle if SHORT).
2. Extended band, you can customize settings for a second indicator with larger values to use it as STOP LOSS, for example, Bollinger Bands with 2 standard deviations to open positions and 3 for STOP LOSS.
3. ATR: you can pick average true ratio from a source (like closing price) with a multiplier to calculate STOP LOSS.
- TAKE PROFIT OPTIONS:
1. Opposite band (top band for LONGs, bottom band for SHORTs).
2. Moving average: Bollinger Bands simple moving average or Keltner Channel exponential moving average .
3. ATR: you can pick average true ratio from a source (like closing price) with a multiplier to calculate TAKE PROFIT.
- OTHER OPTIONS:
You can pick to trade only LONGs, only SHORTs, both or none (just indicator).
You can enable DYNAMIC TAKE PROFIT, which updates TAKE PROFIT on each candle, for example, if you pick "opposite band" as TAKE PROFIT, it'll update the TAKE PROFIT based on that, on every single new candle.
- Visual:
Bands shown will depend on the chosen indicator and it's settings.
ATR is only printed if used as STOP LOSS and/or TAKE PROFIT.
- Recommendations:
Recommended on DAILY timeframe , it works better with Keltner Channels rather than Bollinger Bands .
- Customization:
As you can see, almost everything is customizable, for colors and plotting styles check the "Style" tab.
Enjoy!

Webhook Starter Kit [HullBuster]
Introduction
This is an open source strategy which provides a framework for webhook enabled projects. It is designed to work out-of-the-box on any instrument triggering on an intraday bar interval. This is a full featured script with an emphasis on actual trading at a brokerage through the TradingView alert mechanism and without requiring browser plugins.
The source code is written in a self documenting style with clearly defined sections. The sections “communicate” with each other through state variables making it easy for the strategy to evolve and improve. This is an excellent place for Pine Language beginners to start their strategy building journey. The script exhibits many Pine Language features which will certainly ad power to your script building abilities.
This script employs a basic trend follow strategy utilizing a forward pyramiding technique. Trend detection is implemented through the use of two higher time frame series. The market entry setup is a Simple Moving Average crossover. Positions exit by passing through conditional take profit logic. The script creates ten indicators including a Zscore oscillator to measure support and resistance levels. The indicator parameters are exposed through 47 strategy inputs segregated into seven sections. All of the inputs are equipped with detailed tool tips to help you get started.
To improve the transition from simulation to execution, strategy.entry and strategy.exit calls show enhanced message text with embedded keywords that are combined with the TradingView placeholders at alert time. Thereby, enabling a single JSON message to generate multiple execution events. This is genius stuff from the Pine Language development team. Really excellent work!
This document provides a sample alert message that can be applied to this script with relatively little modification. Without altering the code, the strategy inputs can alter the behavior to generate thousands of orders or simply a few dozen. It can be applied to crypto, stocks or forex instruments. A good way to look at this script is as a webhook lab that can aid in the development of your own endpoint processor, impress your co-workers and have hours of fun.
By no means is a webhook required or even necessary to benefit from this script. The setups, exits, trend detection, pyramids and DCA algorithms can be easily replaced with more sophisticated versions. The modular design of the script logic allows you to incrementally learn and advance this script into a functional trading system that you can be proud of.
Design
This is a trend following strategy that enters long above the trend line and short below. There are five trend lines that are visible by default but can be turned off in Section 7. Identified, in frequency order, as follows:
1. - EMA in the chart time frame. Intended to track price pressure. Configured in Section 3.
2. - ALMA in the higher time frame specified in Section 2 Signal Line Period.
3. - Linear Regression in the higher time frame specified in Section 2 Signal Line Period.
4. - Linear Regression in the higher time frame specified in Section 2 Signal Line Period.
5. - DEMA in the higher time frame specified in Section 2 Trend Line Period.
The Blue, Green and Orange lines are signal lines are on the same time frame. The time frame selected should be at least five times greater than the chart time frame. The Purple line represents the trend line for which prices above the line suggest a rising market and prices below a falling market. The time frame selected for the trend should be at least five times greater than the signal lines.
Three oscillators are created as follows:
1. Stochastic - In the chart time frame. Used to enter forward pyramids.
2. Stochastic - In the Trend period. Used to detect exit conditions.
3. Zscore - In the Signal period. Used to detect exit conditions.
The Stochastics are configured identically other than the time frame. The period is set in Section 2.
Two Simple Moving Averages provide the trade entry conditions in the form of a crossover. Crossing up is a long entry and down is a short. This is in fact the same setup you get when you select a basic strategy from the Pine editor. The crossovers are configured in Section 3. You can see where the crosses are occurring by enabling Show Entry Regions in Section 7.
The script has the capacity for pyramids and DCA. Forward pyramids are enabled by setting the Pyramid properties tab with a non zero value. In this case add on trades will enter the market on dips above the position open price. This process will continue until the trade exits. Downward pyramids are available in Crypto and Range mode only. In this case add on trades are placed below the entry price in the drawdown space until the stop is hit. To enable downward pyramids set the Pyramid Minimum Span In Section 1 to a non zero value.
This implementation of Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) triggers off consecutive losses. Each loss in a run increments a sequence number. The position size is increased as a multiple of this sequence. When the position eventually closes at a profit the sequence is reset. DCA is enabled by setting the Maximum DCA Increments In Section 1 to a non zero value.
It should be noted that the pyramid and DCA features are implemented using a rudimentary design and as such do not perform with the precision of my invite only scripts. They are intended as a feature to stress test your webhook endpoint. As is, you will need to buttress the logic for it to be part of an automated trading system. It is for this reason that I did not apply a Martingale algorithm to this pyramid implementation. But, hey, it’s an open source script so there is plenty of room for learning and your own experimentation.
How does it work
The overall behavior of the script is governed by the Trading Mode selection in Section 1. It is the very first input so you should think about what behavior you intend for this strategy at the onset of the configuration. As previously discussed, this script is designed to be a trend follower. The trend being defined as where the purple line is predominately heading. In BiDir mode, SMA crossovers above the purple line will open long positions and crosses below the line will open short. If pyramiding is enabled add on trades will accumulate on dips above the entry price. The value applied to the Minimum Profit input in Section 1 establishes the threshold for a profitable exit. This is not a hard number exit. The conditional exit logic must be satisfied in order to permit the trade to close. This is where the effort put into the indicator calibration is realized. There are four ways the trade can exit at a profit:
1. Natural exit. When the blue line crosses the green line the trade will close. For a long position the blue line must cross under the green line (downward). For a short the blue must cross over the green (upward).
2. Alma / Linear Regression event. The distance the blue line is from the green and the relative speed the cross is experiencing determines this event. The activation thresholds are set in Section 6 and relies on the period and length set in Section 2. A long position will exit on an upward thrust which exceeds the activation threshold. A short will exit on a downward thrust.
3. Exponential event. The distance the yellow line is from the blue and the relative speed the cross is experiencing determines this event. The activation thresholds are set in Section 3 and relies on the period and length set in the same section.
4. Stochastic event. The purple line stochastic is used to measure overbought and over sold levels with regard to position exits. Signal line positions combined with a reading over 80 signals a long profit exit. Similarly, readings below 20 signal a short profit exit.
Another, optional, way to exit a position is by Bale Out. You can enable this feature in Section 1. This is a handy way to reduce the risk when carrying a large pyramid stack. Instead of waiting for the entire position to recover we exit early (bale out) as soon as the profit value has doubled.
There are lots of ways to implement a bale out but the method I used here provides a succinct example. Feel free to improve on it if you like. To see where the Bale Outs occur, enable Show Bale Outs in Section 7. Red labels are rendered below each exit point on the chart.
There are seven selectable Trading Modes available from the drop down in Section 1:
1. Long - Uses the strategy.risk.allow_entry_in to execute long only trades. You will still see shorts on the chart.
2. Short - Uses the strategy.risk.allow_entry_in to execute short only trades. You will still see long trades on the chart.
3. BiDir - This mode is for margin trading with a stop. If a long position was initiated above the trend line and the price has now fallen below the trend, the position will be reversed after the stop is hit. Forward pyramiding is available in this mode if you set the Pyramiding value in the Properties tab. DCA can also be activated.
4. Flip Flop - This is a bidirectional trading mode that automatically reverses on a trend line crossover. This is distinctively different from BiDir since you will get a reversal even without a stop which is advantageous in non-margin trading.
5. Crypto - This mode is for crypto trading where you are buying the coins outright. In this case you likely want to accumulate coins on a crash. Especially, when all the news outlets are talking about the end of Bitcoin and you see nice deep valleys on the chart. Certainly, under these conditions, the market will be well below the purple line. No margin so you can’t go short. Downward pyramids are enabled for Crypto mode when two conditions are met. First the Pyramiding value in the Properties tab must be non zero. Second the Pyramid Minimum Span in Section 1 must be non zero.
6. Range - This is a counter trend trading mode. Longs are entered below the purple trend line and shorts above. Useful when you want to test your webhook in a market where the trend line is bisecting the signal line series. Remember that this strategy is a trend follower. It’s going to get chopped out in a range bound market. By turning on the Range mode you will at least see profitable trades while stuck in the range. However, when the market eventually picks a direction, this mode will sustain losses. This range trading mode is a rudimentary implementation that will need a lot of improvement if you want to create a reliable switch hitter (trend/range combo).
7. No Trade. Useful when setting up the trend lines and the entry and exit is not important.
Once in the trade, long or short, the script tests the exit condition on every bar. If not a profitable exit then it checks if a pyramid is required. As mentioned earlier, the entry setups are quite primitive. Although they can easily be replaced by more sophisticated algorithms, what I really wanted to show is the diminished role of the position entry in the overall life of the trade. Professional traders spend much more time on the management of the trade beyond the market entry. While your trade entry is important, you can get in almost anywhere and still land a profitable exit.
If DCA is enabled, the size of the position will increase in response to consecutive losses. The number of times the position can increase is limited by the number set in Maximum DCA Increments of Section 1. Once the position breaks the losing streak the trade size will return the default quantity set in the Properties tab. It should be noted that the Initial Capital amount set in the Properties tab does not affect the simulation in the same way as a real account. In reality, running out of money will certainly halt trading. In fact, your account would be frozen long before the last penny was committed to a trade. On the other hand, TradingView will keep running the simulation until the current bar even if your funds have been technically depleted.
Entry and exit use the strategy.entry and strategy.exit calls respectfully. The alert_message parameter has special keywords that the endpoint expects to properly calculate position size and message sequence. The alert message will embed these keywords in the JSON object through the {{strategy.order.alert_message}} placeholder. You should use whatever keywords are expected from the endpoint you intend to webhook in to.
Webhook Integration
The TradingView alerts dialog provides a way to connect your script to an external system which could actually execute your trade. This is a fantastic feature that enables you to separate the data feed and technical analysis from the execution and reporting systems. Using this feature it is possible to create a fully automated trading system entirely on the cloud. Of course, there is some work to get it all going in a reliable fashion. Being a strategy type script place holders such as {{strategy.position_size}} can be embedded in the alert message text. There are more than 10 variables which can write internal script values into the message for delivery to the specified endpoint.
Entry and exit use the strategy.entry and strategy.exit calls respectfully. The alert_message parameter has special keywords that my endpoint expects to properly calculate position size and message sequence. The alert message will embed these keywords in the JSON object through the {{strategy.order.alert_message}} placeholder. You should use whatever keywords are expected from the endpoint you intend to webhook in to.
Here is an excerpt of the fields I use in my webhook signal:
"broker_id": "kraken",
"account_id": "XXX XXXX XXXX XXXX",
"symbol_id": "XMRUSD",
"action": "{{strategy.order.action}}",
"strategy": "{{strategy.order.id}}",
"lots": "{{strategy.order.contracts}}",
"price": "{{strategy.order.price}}",
"comment": "{{strategy.order.alert_message}}",
"timestamp": "{{time}}"
Though TradingView does a great job in dispatching your alert this feature does come with a few idiosyncrasies. Namely, a single transaction call in your script may cause multiple transmissions to the endpoint. If you are using placeholders each message describes part of the transaction sequence. A good example is closing a pyramid stack. Although the script makes a single strategy.close() call, the endpoint actually receives a close message for each pyramid trade. The broker, on the other hand, only requires a single close. The incongruity of this situation is exacerbated by the possibility of messages being received out of sequence. Depending on the type of order designated in the message, a close or a reversal. This could have a disastrous effect on your live account. This broker simulator has no idea what is actually going on at your real account. Its just doing the job of running the simulation and sending out the computed results. If your TradingView simulation falls out of alignment with the actual trading account lots of really bad things could happen. Like your script thinks your are currently long but the account is actually short. Reversals from this point forward will always be wrong with no one the wiser. Human intervention will be required to restore congruence. But how does anyone find out this is occurring? In closed systems engineering this is known as entropy. In practice your webhook logic should be robust enough to detect these conditions. Be generous with the placeholder usage and give the webhook code plenty of information to compare states. Both issuer and receiver. Don’t blindly commit incoming signals without verifying system integrity.
Setup
The following steps provide a very brief set of instructions that will get you started on your first configuration. After you’ve gone through the process a couple of times, you won’t need these anymore. It’s really a simple script after all. I have several example configurations that I used to create the performance charts shown. I can share them with you if you like. Of course, if you’ve modified the code then these steps are probably obsolete.
There are 47 inputs divided into seven sections. For the most part, the configuration process is designed to flow from top to bottom. Handy, tool tips are available on every field to help get you through the initial setup.
Step 1. Input the Base Currency and Order Size in the Properties tab. Set the Pyramiding value to zero.
Step 2. Select the Trading Mode you intend to test with from the drop down in Section 1. I usually select No Trade until I’ve setup all of the trend lines, profit and stop levels.
Step 3. Put in your Minimum Profit and Stop Loss in the first section. This is in pips or currency basis points (chart right side scale). Remember that the profit is taken as a conditional exit not a fixed limit. The actual profit taken will almost always be greater than the amount specified. The stop loss, on the other hand, is indeed a hard number which is executed by the TradingView broker simulator when the threshold is breached.
Step 4. Apply the appropriate value to the Tick Scalar field in Section 1. This value is used to remove the pipette from the price. You can enable the Summary Report in Section 7 to see the TradingView minimum tick size of the current chart.
Step 5. Apply the appropriate Price Normalizer value in Section 1. This value is used to normalize the instrument price for differential calculations. Basically, we want to increase the magnitude to significant digits to make the numbers more meaningful in comparisons. Though I have used many normalization techniques, I have always found this method to provide a simple and lightweight solution for less demanding applications. Most of the time the default value will be sufficient. The Tick Scalar and Price Normalizer value work together within a single calculation so changing either will affect all delta result values.
Step 6. Turn on the trend line plots in Section 7. Then configure Section 2. Try to get the plots to show you what’s really happening not what you want to happen. The most important is the purple trend line. Select an interval and length that seem to identify where prices tend to go during non-consolidation periods. Remember that a natural exit is when the blue crosses the green line.
Step 7. Enable Show Event Regions in Section 7. Then adjust Section 6. Blue background fills are spikes and red fills are plunging prices. These measurements should be hard to come by so you should see relatively few fills on the chart if you’ve set this up as intended. Section 6 includes the Zscore oscillator the state of which combines with the signal lines to detect statistically significant price movement. The Zscore is a zero based calculation with positive and negative magnitude readings. You want to input a reasonably large number slightly below the maximum amplitude seen on the chart. Both rise and fall inputs are entered as a positive real number. You can easily use my code to create a separate indicator if you want to see it in action. The default value is sufficient for most configurations.
Step 8. Turn off Show Event Regions and enable Show Entry Regions in Section 7. Then adjust Section 3. This section contains two parts. The entry setup crossovers and EMA events. Adjust the crossovers first. That is the Fast Cross Length and Slow Cross Length. The frequency of your trades will be shown as blue and red fills. There should be a lot. Then turn off Show Event Regions and enable Display EMA Peaks. Adjust all the fields that have the word EMA. This is actually the yellow line on the chart. The blue and red fills should show much less than the crossovers but more than event fills shown in Step 7.
Step 9. Change the Trading Mode to BiDir if you selected No Trades previously. Look on the chart and see where the trades are occurring. Make adjustments to the Minimum Profit and Stop Offset in Section 1 if necessary. Wider profits and stops reduce the trade frequency.
Step 10. Go to Section 4 and 5 and make fine tuning adjustments to the long and short side.

28. In Section 4: Check mark the Long Stochastic Exit
29. In Section 5: Check mark the Short Natural Exit
30. In Section 5: Check mark the Short Signal Exit
31. In Section 5: Check mark the Short Price Event Exit
32. In Section 5: Check mark the Short Stochastic Exit
33. In Section 6: Input 120 Rise Event NetChg
34. In Section 6: Input 1 Rise Event ROC
35. In Section 6: Input 5 Min Above Zero ZScore
36. In Section 6: Input 120 Fall Event NetChg
37. In Section 6: Input 1 Fall Event ROC
38. In Section 6: Input 5 Min Below Zero ZScore
In this configuration we are trading in long only mode and have enabled downward pyramiding. The purple trend line is based on the day (1440) period. The length is set at 90 days so it’s going to take a while for the trend line to alter course should this symbol decide to node dive for a prolonged amount of time. Your trades will still go long under those circumstances. Since downward accumulation is enabled, your position size will grow on the way down.
The performance example is Bitcoin so we assume the trader is buying coins outright. That being the case we don’t need a stop since we will never receive a margin call. New buy signals will be generated when the price exceeds the magnitude and speed defined by the Event Net Change and Rate of Change.
