Trailing Take Profit - Close Based📝 Description
This script demonstrates a new approach to the trailing take profit.
Trailing Take Profit is a price-following technique. When used, instead of setting a limit order for the take profit target exiting from your position at the specified price, a stop order is conditionally set when the take profit target is reached. Then, the stop price (a.k.a trailing price), is placed below the take profit target at a distance defined by the user percentagewise. On regular time intervals, the stop price gets updated by following the "Trail Barrier" price (high by default) upwards. When the current price hits the stop price you exit the trade. Check the chart for more details.
This script demonstrates how to implement the close-based Trailing Take Profit logic for long positions, but it can also be applied for short positions if the logic is "reversed".
📢 NOTE
To generate some entries and showcase the "Trailing Take Profit" technique, this script uses the crossing of two moving averages. Please keep in mind that you should not relate the Backtesting results you see in the "Strategy Tester" tab with the success of the technique itself.
This is not a complete strategy per se, and the backtest results are affected by many parameters that are outside of the scope of this publication. If you choose to use this new approach of the "Trailing Take Profit" in your logic you have to make sure that you are backtesting the whole strategy.
⚔️ Comparison
In contrast to my older "Trailing Take Profit" publication where the trailing take profit implementation was tick-based, this new approach is close-based, meaning that the update of the stop price occurs at the bar close instead of every tick.
While comparing the real-time results of the two implementations is like comparing apples to oranges, because they have different dynamic behavior, the new approach offers better consistency between the backtesting results and the real-time results.
By updating the stop price on every bar close, you do not rely on the backtester assumptions anymore (check the Reasoning section below for more info).
The new approach resembles the conditional "Trailing Exit" technique, where the condition is true when the current price crosses over the take profit target. Then, the stop order is placed at the trailing price and it gets updated on every bar close to "follow" the barrier price (high). On the other hand, the older tick-based approach had more "tight" dynamics since the trailing price gets updated on every tick leaving less room for price fluctuations by making it more probable to reach the trailing price.
🤔 Reasoning
This new close-based approach addresses several practical issues the older tick-based approach had. Those issues arise mainly from the technicalities of the TV Backtester. More specifically, due to the assumptions the Broker Emulator makes for the price action of the history bars, the backtesting results in the TV Backtester are exaggerated, and depending on the timeframe, the backtesting results look way better than they are in reality.
The effect above, and the inability to reason about the performance of a strategy separated people into two groups. Those who never use this feature, because they couldn't know for sure the actual effect it might have in their strategy, (even if it turned out to be more profitable) and those who abused this type of "repainting" behavior to show off, and hijack some boosts from the community by boasting about the "fake" results of their strategies.
Even if there are ways to evaluate the effectiveness of the tick-based approach that is applied in an existing strategy (this is out of the topic of this publication), it requires extra effort to do the analysis. Using this closed-based approach we can have more predictable results, without surprises.
⚠️ Caveats
Since this approach updates the trailing price on bar close, you must wait for at least one bar to close after the price crosses over the take profit target.

RSI and ATR Trend Reversal SL/TPQuick History:
I was frustrated with a standard fixed percent TP/SL as they often were not receptive to quick market rallies/reversals. I developed this TP/SL and eventually made it into a full fledge strategy and found it did well enough to publish. This strategy can be used as a standalone or tacked onto another strategy as a TP/SL. It does function as both with a single line. This strategy has been tested with TSLA , AAPL, NVDA, on the 15 minutes timeframe.
HOW IT WORKS:
Inputs:
Length: Simple enough, it determines the length of the RSI and ATR used.
Multiplier: This multiplies the RSI and ATR calculation, more on this later.
Delay to prevent Idealization: TradingView will use the open of the bar the strategy triggers on when calculating the backtest. This can produce unrealistic results depending on the source. If your source is open, set to 0, if anything else, set to 1.
Minimum Difference: This is essentially a traditional SL/TP, it is borderline unnecessary, but if the other parameters are wacky this can be used to ensure the SL/TP. It multiplies the source by the percent, so if it is set to 10, the SL/TP is initialized at src +- 10%.
Source input: Self Explanatory, be sure to update the Delay if you use open.
CALCULATION:
Parameters Initialization:
The strategy uses Heikinashi values for calculations, this is not toggleable in parameters, but can be easily changed by changing hclose to equal src.
FUNCTION INITIALIZATION:
highest_custom and lowest_custom do the same thing as ta.highest and ta.lowest, however the built in ta library does not allow for var int input, so I had to create my own functions to be used here. I actually developed these years ago and have used them in almost every strategy since. Feel especially free to use these in your own scripts.
The rsilev is where the magic happens.
SL/TP min/max are initially calculated to be used later.
Then we begin by establishing variables.
BullGuy is used to determine the length since the last crossup or crossdown, until one happens, it returns na, breaking the function. BearGuy is used in all the calculations, and is the same as BullGuy, unless BullGuy is na, where BearGuy counts up from 1 on each bar from 0.
We create our rsi and have to modify the second one to suit the function. In the case of the upper band, we mirror the lower one. So if the RSI is 80, we want it to be 20 on the upper band.
the upper band and lower band are calculated the exact same way, but mirrored. For the purpose of writing, I'm going to talk about the lower band. Assume everything is mirrored for the upper one. It finds the highest source since the last crossup or crossdown. It then multiplies from 1 / the RSI, this means that a rapid RSI increase will increase the band dramatically, so it is able to capture quick rally/reversals. We add this to the atr to source ratio, as the general volatility is a massive factor to be included. We then multiply this number by our chosen amount, and subtract it from the highest source, creating the band.
We do this same process but mirrored with both bands and compared it to the source. If the source is above the lower band, it suggests an uptrend, so the lower band is outputted, and vice versa for the upper one.
PLOTTING:
We also determine the line color in the same manner as we do the trend direction.
STRATEGY:
We then use the source again, and if it crosses up or down relative to the selected band, we enter a long or short respectively.
This may not be the most superb independent strategy, but it can be very useful as a TP/SL for your chosen entry conditions, especially in volatile markets or tickers.

ATR Bands with Optional Risk/Reward Colors█ OVERVIEW
This indicator projects ATR bands and, optionally, colors them based on a risk/reward advantage for those who trade breakouts/breakdowns using moving averages as partial or full exit points.
█ DEFINITIONS
► True Range
The True Range is a measure of the volatility of a financial asset and is defined as the maximum difference among one of the following values:
- The high of the current period minus the low of the current period.
- The absolute value of the high of the current period minus the closing price of the previous period.
- The absolute value of the low of the current period minus the closing price of the previous period.
► Average True Range
The Average True Range was developed by J. Welles Wilder Jr. and was introduced in his 1978 book titled "New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems". It is calculated as an average of the true range values over a certain number of periods (usually 14) and is commonly used to measure volatility and set stop-loss and profit targets (1).
For example, if you are looking at a daily chart and you want to calculate the 14-day ATR, you would take the True Range of the previous 14 days, calculate their average, and this would be the ATR for that day. The process is then repeated every day to obtain a series of ATR values over time.
The ATR can be smoothed using different methods, such as the Simple Moving Average (SMA), the Exponential Moving Average (EMA), or others, depending on the user's preferences or analysis needs.
► ATR Bands
The ATR bands are created by adding or subtracting the ATR from a reference point (usually the closing price). This process generates bands around the central point that expand and contract based on market volatility, allowing traders to assess dynamic support and resistance levels and to adapt their trading strategies to current market conditions.
█ INDICATOR
► ATR Bands
The indicator provides all the essential parameters for calculating the ATR: period length, time frame, smoothing method, and multiplier.
It is then possible to choose the reference point from which to create the bands. The most commonly used reference points are Open, High, Low, and Close, but you can also choose the commonly used candle averages: HL2, HLC3, HLCC4, OHLC4. Among these, there is also a less common "OC2", which represents the average of the candle body. Additionally, two parameters have been specifically created for this indicator: Open/Close and High/Low.
With the "Open/Close" parameter, the upper band is calculated from the higher value between Open and Close, while the lower one is calculated from the lower value between Open and Close. In the case of bullish candles, therefore, the Close value is taken as the starting point for the upper band and the Open value for the lower one; conversely, in bearish candles, the Open value is used for the upper band and the Close value for the lower band. This setting can be useful for precautionally generating broader bands when trading with candlesticks like hammers or inverted hammers.
The "High/Low" parameter calculates the upper band starting from the High and the lower band starting from the Low. Among all the available options, this one allows drawing the widest bands.
Other possible options to improve the drawing of ATR bands, aligning them with the price action, are:
• Doji Smoothing: When the current candle is a doji (having the same Open and Close price), the bands assume the values they had on the previous candle. This can be useful to avoid steep fluctuations of the bands themselves.
• Extend to High/Low: Extends the bands to the High or Low values when they exceed the value of the band.
• Round Last Cent: Expands the upper band by one cent if the price ends with x.x9, and the lower band if the price ends with x.x1. This function only works when the asset's tick is 0.01.
► Risk/Reward Advantage
The indicator optionally colors the ATR bands after setting a breakpoint, one or two risk/reward ratios, and a series of moving averages. This function allows you to know in advance whether entering a trade can provide an advantage over the risk. The band is colored when the ratio between the distance from the break point to the band and the distance from the break point to the first available moving average reaches at least the set ratio value. It is possible to set two colorings, one for a minimum risk/reward ratio and one for an optimal risk/reward ratio.
The break point can be chosen between High/Low (High in case of breakout, Low in case of breakdown) or Open/Close (on breakouts, Close with bullish candles or Open with bearish candles; on breakdowns, Close with bearish candles or Open with bullish candles).
It is possible to choose up to 10 moving averages of various types, including the VWAP with the Anchor Period (2).
Depending on the "Price to MA" setting, the bands can be individually or simultaneously colored.
By selecting "Single Direction," the risk/reward calculation is performed only when all moving averages are above or below the break point, resulting in only one band being colored at a time. For this reason, when the break point is in between the moving averages, the calculation is not executed. This setting can be useful for strategies involving price movement from a level towards a series of specific moving averages (for example, in reversals starting from a certain level towards the VWAP with possible partial take profits on some previous moving averages, or simply in trend following towards one or more moving averages).
Choosing "Both Directions" the risk/reward ratio is calculated based on the first available moving averages both above and below the price. This setting is useful for those who operate in range bound markets or simply take advantage of movements between moving averages.
█ NOTE
This script may not be suitable for scalping strategies that require immediate entries due to the inability to know the ATR of a candle in advance until its closure. Once the candle is closed, you should have time to place a stop or stop-limit order, so your strategy should not anticipate an immediate start with the next candle. Even more conveniently, if your strategy involves an entry on a pullback, you can place a limit order at the breakout level.

(2) For convenience, the code for the Anchor Period has been entirely copied from the VWAP code provided by TradingView.
Volatility Adjusted Profit Target
In my 'Volatility Adjusted Profit Target' indicator, I've crafted a dynamic tool for calculating target profit percentages suitable for both long and short trading strategies. It evaluates the highest and lowest prices over the anticipated duration of your trade, establishing a profit target that shifts with market volatility. As volatility increases, the potential for profit follows, with the target percentage rising accordingly; conversely, it declines with decreasing volatility. As a trader, setting an optimal Take Profit level has always been a challenge. This indicator not only helps in determining that level but also dynamically adjusts it throughout the trade's duration, providing a strategic edge in volatile markets.
Targets For Many Indicators [LuxAlgo]The Targets For Many Indicators is a useful utility tool able to display targets for many built-in indicators as well as external indicators. Targets can be set for specific user-set conditions between two series of values, with the script being able to display targets for two different user-set conditions.
Alerts are included for the occurrence of a new target as well as for reached targets.
🔶 USAGE
Targets can help users determine the price limit where the price might start deviating from an indication given by one or multiple indicators. In the context of trading, targets can help secure profits/reduce losses of a trade, as such this tool can be useful to evaluate/determine user take profits/stop losses.
Due to these essentially being horizontal levels, they can also serve as potential support/resistances, with breakouts potentially confirming new trends.
In the above example, we set targets 3 ATR's away from the closing price when the price crosses over the script built-in SuperTrend indicator using ATR period 10 and factor 3. Using "Long Position Target" allows setting a target above the price, disabling this setting will place targets below the price.
Users might be interested in obtaining new targets once one is reached, this can be done by enabling "New Target When Reached" in the target logic setting section, resulting in more frequent targets.
Lastly, users can restrict new target creation until current ones are reached. This can result in fewer and longer-term targets, with a higher reach rate.
🔹 Dashboard
A dashboard is displayed on the top right of the chart, displaying the amount, reach rate of targets 1/2, and total amount.
This dashboard can be useful to evaluate the selected target distances relative to the selected conditions, with a higher reach rate suggesting the distance of the targets from the price allows them to be reached.

ATR Based Stoploss - TakeProfit [CharmyDexter]
This script combines the power of Average True Range (ATR) and a Moving Average (MA) to dynamically set stop-loss and take-profit levels. It introduces a volatility surge condition and includes a risk management table for comprehensive trade insights.
1) **Originality:**
- This script is original in its approach to combining Average True Range (ATR) with a Moving Average (MA) to create a dynamic stop-loss and take-profit strategy. The addition of a volatility surge condition and the inclusion of a risk management table further contribute to its uniqueness.
2) **Functionality:**
- The script aims to provide traders with a dynamic stop-loss and take-profit strategy based on ATR, incorporating a volatility surge condition and a moving average. The risk management table displays crucial information, including the fund size, potential profit/loss, ATR values, and risk.
3) **Operation:**
- The script uses ATR to calculate volatility, identifying surges in volatility. It adjusts the stop-loss and take-profit levels based on the average of ATR during these surge periods. The moving average acts as a trend indicator, and the script dynamically adjusts stop-loss and take-profit levels accordingly.
4) **Usage:**
- Traders can use this script by applying it to their preferred financial instrument's chart. The script automatically plots the moving average and dynamically adjusts stop-loss and take-profit levels based on ATR and volatility surges. Users can observe the levels on the chart for potential trade management.
5) **Concepts:**
- The script employs concepts of ATR for volatility, moving average for trend identification, and a dynamic adjustment mechanism during volatility surges. Risk management is incorporated by calculating potential profit/loss percentages based on user-defined risk.
6) **Mashup Explanation:**
- The script combines ATR, moving average, and volatility conditions to create a comprehensive strategy. ATR determines the market's volatility, the moving average serves as a trend indicator, and volatility surges trigger dynamic adjustments to stop-loss and take-profit levels. The risk management table enhances the script's utility.
7) **Line Descriptions:**
- Blue Line (Moving Average): Indicates the trend direction.
- Lime Line (Long Take Profit): Represents the level for taking profit in a long position.
- Maroon Line (Short Take Profit): Represents the level for taking profit in a short position.
- Fuchsia Line (Short Stop Loss): Represents the level for setting a stop loss in a short position.
- Orange Line (Long Stop Loss): Represents the level for setting a stop loss in a long position.
8) **Line Usage:**
- Use the blue line for trend identification.
- When taking long positions, the close should be above the blue line.
- For long positions, the lime line is a potential take-profit level, and the orange line is a potential stop-loss level.
- For short positions, the maroon line is a potential take-profit level, and the fuchsia line is a potential stop-loss level.
- The risk management table provides insights into fund size, potential profit/loss, ATR values, and risk.
Note: The profit/loss calculations in this script may not be entirely accurate due to factors like market execution. Market execution may not always occur at the exact levels specified by the script due to slippage or delays in order processing. This can impact the realized profit or loss compared to the calculated levels.
It is crucial to note that this ATR Based Stop-loss - Take-Profit indicator is merely one tool among many that traders can employ to establish trading targets. Additional technical indicators are essential for taking trades and making informed decisions.
Commented-out sections for alerts and shape plotting are provided, allowing for visual and auditory notifications if desired.
It's crucial for traders to be aware of these factors and use the script as a tool within a broader trading strategy. Additionally, regular monitoring and adjustments based on real-time market conditions are recommended to enhance the accuracy of profit/loss assessments.
Targets For Overlay Indicators [LuxAlgo]The Targets For Overlay Indicators is a useful utility tool able to display targets during crossings made between the price and external indicators on the user chart. Users can display a series of two targets, one for crossover events and another one for crossunder event.
Alerts are included for the occurrence of a new target as well as for reached targets.
🔶 USAGE
In order for targets to be displayed users need to select an appropriate input source from the "Source" drop-down input setting. In the example above we apply the indicator to a volatility stop.
This can also easily be done by adding the "Targets For Overlay Indicators" script on the VStop indicator directly.
Targets can help users determine the price limit where the price might start deviating from an indication given by one or multiple indicators. In the context of trading, targets can help secure profits/reduce losses of a trade, as such this tool can be useful to evaluate/determine user take profits/stop losses.
Due to these essentially being horizontal levels, they can also serve as potential support/resistances, with breakouts potentially confirming new trends.
Users might be interested in obtaining new targets once one is reached, this can be done by enabling "New Target When Reached" in the target logic setting section, resulting in more frequent targets.
Lastly, users can restrict new target creation until current ones are reached. This can result in fewer and longer-term targets, with a higher reach rate.
🔹 Examples
The indicator can be applied to many overlay indicators that naturally produce crosses with the price, such as moving average, trailing stops, bands...etc.
Users can use trailing stops such as the SuperTrend or VStop to more easily create clean targets. Do note that certain SuperTrend scripts separate the upper and lower extremities of the SuperTrend into two different plot, which cannot be used with this tool, you may use the provided SuperTrend script below to have a compatible version with our tool:
//@version=5
indicator("SuperTrend", overlay = true)
factor = input.float(3, 'Factor', minval = 0)
atrLen = input.int(10, 'ATR Length', minval = 1)
= ta.supertrend(factor, atrLen)
plot(spt, 'SuperTrend', dir != dir ? na : dir < 0 ? #089981 : #f23645, 2)
plot(spt, 'Circles', dir > dir ? #f23645 : dir < dir ? #089981 : na, 3, plot.style_circles)
Using moving averages can produce more targets than other overlay indicators.
Users can apply the tool twice when using bands or any overlay indicator returning two outputs, using crossover targets for obtaining targets using the upper band as source and crossunder targets for targets using the lower band. We can also use the Trendlines with breaks indicator as example:
🔹 Dashboard
A dashboard is displayed on the top right of the chart, displaying the amount, reach rate of targets 1/2, and total amount.
This dashboard can be useful to evaluate the selected target distances relative to the selected conditions, with a higher reach rate suggesting the distance of the targets from the price allows them to be reached.
🔶 SETTINGS

TrendCryptoThe _trendcrypto script is a trading strategy that uses a variety of indicators to identify potential trading opportunities, including the Parabolic SAR, ADX, and RSI.
The script first calculates the RMA, SMA, and trend direction. The RMA is a moving average that is weighted more heavily towards recent prices. The SMA is a simple moving average that gives equal weight to all prices in the period. The trend direction is calculated by comparing the current price to the price a certain number of periods ago.
The script then uses the RMA, SMA, and trend direction to identify potential trading opportunities. If the current price is above the RMA and the trend direction is up, the script will generate a buy signal. If the current price is below the RMA and the trend direction is down, the script will generate a sell signal.
The script also calculates the Parabolic SAR, which is a technical indicator that helps traders identify potential trend reversals. The Parabolic SAR is calculated using a formula that takes into account the high and low prices of a security over a specified period of time.
The script also calculates the ADX, which is a trend strength indicator. The ADX is calculated using a formula that takes into account the difference between the high and low prices of a security, as well as the difference between the closing price and the previous close.
The script also calculates the RSI, which is a momentum indicator that measures the magnitude of recent price changes to evaluate overbought or oversold conditions in the price of a stock or other asset. The RSI is calculated over a specified period of time, and the default value in the code is 14.
The script also allows users to specify a stop loss and take profit level for each trade. The default stop loss level is 4% and the default take profit level is 7%.
Machine Learning: SuperTrend Strategy TP/SL [YinYangAlgorithms]The SuperTrend is a very useful Indicator to display when trends have shifted based on the Average True Range (ATR). Its underlying ideology is to calculate the ATR using a fixed length and then multiply it by a factor to calculate the SuperTrend +/-. When the close crosses the SuperTrend it changes direction.
This Strategy features the Traditional SuperTrend Calculations with Machine Learning (ML) and Take Profit / Stop Loss applied to it. Using ML on the SuperTrend allows for the ability to sort data from previous SuperTrend calculations. We can filter the data so only previous SuperTrends that follow the same direction and are within the distance bounds of our k-Nearest Neighbour (KNN) will be added and then averaged. This average can either be achieved using a Mean or with an Exponential calculation which puts added weight on the initial source. Take Profits and Stop Losses are then added to the ML SuperTrend so it may capitalize on Momentum changes meanwhile remaining in the Trend during consolidation.
By applying Machine Learning logic and adding a Take Profit and Stop Loss to the Traditional SuperTrend, we may enhance its underlying calculations with potential to withhold the trend better. The main purpose of this Strategy is to minimize losses and false trend changes while maximizing gains. This may be achieved by quick reversals of trends where strategic small losses are taken before a large trend occurs with hopes of potentially occurring large gain. Due to this logic, the Win/Loss ratio of this Strategy may be quite poor as it may take many small marginal losses where there is consolidation. However, it may also take large gains and capitalize on strong momentum movements.
Tutorial:
In this example above, we can get an idea of what the default settings may achieve when there is momentum. It focuses on attempting to hit the Trailing Take Profit which moves in accord with the SuperTrend just with a multiplier added. When momentum occurs it helps push the SuperTrend within it, which on its own may act as a smaller Trailing Take Profit of its own accord.
We’ve highlighted some key points from the last example to better emphasize how it works. As you can see, the White Circle is where profit was taken from the ML SuperTrend simply from it attempting to switch to a Bullish (Buy) Trend. However, that was rejected almost immediately and we went back to our Bearish (Sell) Trend that ended up resulting in our Take Profit being hit (Yellow Circle). This Strategy aims to not only capitalize on the small profits from SuperTrend to SuperTrend but to also capitalize when the Momentum is so strong that the price moves X% away from the SuperTrend and is able to hit the Take Profit location. This Take Profit addition to this Strategy is crucial as momentum may change state shortly after such drastic price movements; and if we were to simply wait for it to come back to the SuperTrend, we may lose out on lots of potential profit.
If you refer to the Yellow Circle in this example, you’ll notice what was talked about in the Summary/Overview above. During periods of consolidation when there is little momentum and price movement and we don’t have any Stop Loss activated, you may see ‘Signal Flashing’. Signal Flashing is when there are Buy and Sell signals that keep switching back and forth. During this time you may be taking small losses. This is a normal part of this Strategy. When a signal has finally been confirmed by Momentum, is when this Strategy shines and may produce the profit you desire.
You may be wondering, what causes these jagged like patterns in the SuperTrend? It's due to the ML logic, and it may be a little confusing, but essentially what is happening is the Fast Moving SuperTrend and the Slow Moving SuperTrend are creating KNN Min and Max distances that are extreme due to (usually) parabolic movement. This causes fewer values to be added to and averaged within the ML and causes less smooth and more exponential drastic movements. This is completely normal, and one of the perks of using k-Nearest Neighbor for ML calculations. If you don’t know, the Min and Max Distance allowed is derived from the most recent(0 index of data array) to KNN Length. So only SuperTrend values that exhibit distances within these Min/Max will be allowed into the average.
Since the KNN ML logic can cause these exponential movements in the SuperTrend, they likewise affect its Take Profit. The Take Profit may benefit from this movement like displayed in the example above which helped it claim profit before then exhibiting upwards movement.
By default our Stop Loss Multiplier is kept quite low at 0.0000025. Keeping it low may help to reduce some Signal Flashing while not taking extra losses more so than not using it at all. However, if we increase it even more to say 0.005 like is shown in the example above. It can really help the trend keep momentum. Please note, although previous results don’t imply future results, at 0.0000025 Stop Loss we are currently exhibiting 69.27% profit while at 0.005 Stop Loss we are exhibiting 33.54% profit. This just goes to show that although there may be less Signal Flashing, it may not result in more profit.
We will conclude our Tutorial here. Hopefully this has given you some insight as to how Machine Learning, combined with Trailing Take Profit and Stop Loss may have positive effects on the SuperTrend when turned into a Strategy.
Settings:
SuperTrend:
ATR Length: ATR Length used to create the Original Supertrend.
Factor: Multiplier used to create the Original Supertrend.
Stop Loss Multiplier: 0 = Don't use Stop Loss. Stop loss can be useful for helping to prevent false signals but also may result in more loss when hit and less profit when switching trends.
Take Profit Multiplier: Take Profits can be useful within the Supertrend Strategy to stop the price reverting all the way to the Stop Loss once it's been profitable.
Machine Learning:
Only Factor Same Trend Direction: Very useful for ensuring that data used in KNN is not manipulated by different SuperTrend Directional data. Please note, it doesn't affect KNN Exponential.
Rationalized Source Type: Should we Rationalize only a specific source, All or None?
Machine Learning Type: Are we using a Simple ML Average, KNN Mean Average, KNN Exponential Average or None?
Machine Learning Smoothing Type: How should we smooth our Fast and Slow ML Datas to be used in our KNN Distance calculation? SMA, EMA or VWMA?
KNN Distance Type: We need to check if distance is within the KNN Min/Max distance, which distance checks are we using.
Machine Learning Length: How far back is our Machine Learning going to keep data for.
k-Nearest Neighbour (KNN) Length: How many k-Nearest Neighbours will we account for?
Fast ML Data Length: What is our Fast ML Length?? This is used with our Slow Length to create our KNN Distance.
Slow ML Data Length: What is our Slow ML Length?? This is used with our Fast Length to create our KNN Distance.

Auto Trailing stoploss By InvestYourAsset💥The Auto Trailing Stop-Loss indicator is a technical indicator that uses the ATR (Average True Range) to calculate a trailing stop-loss for both long and short positions.
💥The signals according to the indicator allows traders to exit from the position before its too late! The indicator can be used to determine when to enter and exit trades.
💥To use the indicator, you simply need to set the input parameters to suit your trading style and risk tolerance. The default values for the parameters are:
p: The ATR period (14)
q: The stop period (20)
x: The multiplier used to calculate the initial high and initial low (1.5)
Calculations:
📈Calculates the ATR using the specified period you can modify ATR period according to your trading style.
📈Calculates the initial high and low stop levels based on the highest high and lowest low over the user defined ATR period.
📈Calculates short and long stoploss levels using the initial high and low stops.
💥Once you have set the input parameters according to your trading style whether you are a day trader or a swing trader, the indicator will plot the short stoploss, long stoploss, and stoploss hit signals on your chart.
💥You can use the indicator to enter and exit trades in a various ways.
For example,
🚀 you could enter a long trade when the price crosses above both red and green lines plotted on the chart. (or when price crosses over both short stoploss and long stoploss.) You could also use the indicator to secure your profits by moving your stop-loss up as the price moves in your favor.
Here is an example of how you could use the indicator to enter and exit trades:
🚀Enter a long trade when the price crosses above the red line or short stoploss.
✅keep Moving your stop-loss upward with the long stoploss or green line.
✅Exit the trade when the price crosses below the long stoploss or green line.
💥You can also use the indicator to protect your existing trades. For example, if you are already in a long trade, you could move your stop-loss up to the short stop when the price moves up 10%. This will help you to protect your profits in case the price starts to move against you.
💥💥some additional tips for using the Auto Trailing Stop-Loss indicator:
✅Use the indicator in conjunction with other technical indicators or your own trading strategy to generate entry and exit signals.
✅Backtest your trading strategy before using it live to make sure that it is profitable.
✅Use the indicator to protect your profits by moving your stop-loss up as the price moves in your favor.
✅ Always follow risk management rules and manage your position sizing according to your risk appetite.
✅ Be aware of the overall trend direction. If the trend is up, you should be looking for bullish reversals or continuations. If the trend is down, you should be looking for bearish reversals or continuations.
This script essentially provides a visual representation of a trading strategy that automatically adjusts stop-loss levels based on market volatility (ATR). It also includes signals for entering long or short positions and visually highlights these signals on the chart.

Engulfing and Doji Scanner with SLThe Bullish Engulfing pattern occurs when the close is higher than the open, and scripts will look for this pattern by checking the difference in the close and open prices sufficiently in pips. Likewise, the Bearish Engulfing pattern occurs when the close is lower than the open, and scripts will look for this pattern by checking for sufficient difference in the open and close in pips.
The Doji pattern occurs when the absolute difference between the open and close prices is very small compared to the price range for that period. The script will look for these patterns by comparing the difference between the open and close prices by a certain percentage of the price range.
After the patterns are detected, the script will calculate the Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) levels based on the parameters set. The SL level will be determined based on the lowest price range with certain adjustments, while the TP level is calculated using a 1:1 ratio to the SL distance.
This script will display arrows and Stop Loss and Take Profit labels on the chart to assist traders in identifying relevant patterns and levels. However, it is important to remember that these scripts only assist in the analysis of patterns and levels, and a more complete trading strategy and decision-making remains the responsibility of the trader.
Take profit and Stop Loss ATR HL [Tcs] | ALGOThis indicator helps traders set stop loss and take profit levels based on either ATR or High-Low range.
The indicator calculates stop loss and take profit levels for both long and short positions, based on the user's input of ATR length, ATR smoothing method, and multiplier levels for each level. It’s possible to set 3 levels of take profit, for both long and short trades.
The indicator also includes the option to show or hide levels, bands, and labels for the calculated stop loss and take profit levels.
Additionally, the indicator has a function to calculate the user's risk based on their account balance, risk percentage, and broker fees.
Overall, this indicator can be helpful for traders who use stop loss and take profit levels in their trading strategies and want a visual representation of those levels on their charts.
Please note that this indicator is for educational purposes only and should not be used for trading without further testing and analysis.
Cyatophilum SmartStrategy MakerThis indicator allows you to use any other indicator from the TradingView library and create complex entry and exit conditions with ease thanks to several external inputs. Add risk management to your strategy and backtest it before creating alerts!
Key Features:
1 — Entry Conditions: Traders can define their entry conditions using up to three sources. They can choose from several options such as "Cross," "Crossover," "Crossunder," "Above," "Below," or "Equal" for comparing the selected sources.
2 — Entry Gates: Users can set logical gates (e.g., "AND," "OR," "XOR," "NAND," "XNOR") to combine multiple entry conditions.
3 — Exit Conditions: Similar to entry conditions, traders can define exit conditions based on two sources and select from various comparison options.
4 — Stop Loss: The indicator allows users to enable or disable a stop-loss feature. The stop-loss value is calculated based on a percentage of the base order price.
5 — Take Profit: Traders can set multiple take-profit levels by specifying the number of take profits, a base percentage, and a step value. Take profits can be defined as a percentage from the total volume or the base order.
6 — Safety Orders (DCA): The indicator supports the use of safety orders (Dollar Cost Averaging) to help manage risks. Users can set the number of safety orders, price deviation, step scale, and volume scale.
7 — Backtest Settings: Traders can define the start and end periods for backtesting their strategy. This feature allows them to analyze the performance of their strategy within specific timeframes.
8 — Alerts: The indicator provides the option to create alerts for entry, exit, stop loss, take profit, and safety orders. Users can customize the alert messages using placeholders for dynamic values like price, symbol, and order size.
Pip CrosshairsThis is a simple tool designed to help you visualize your stop loss and take profit levels before entering a trade. The tool plots two lines on the chart - a green dotted line for take profit and a red dotted line for stop loss (similar to the price line) - with a simulated default spread of one pip factored in. The indicator has the option to toggle between long and short positions.
Please note that the spread used in the tool is not based on your actual spread and should be adjusted accordingly. As, to the best of my knowledge Pine Script does not have the ability to automatically include spread in an indicator, so you will need to input your spread manually. (if you can please let me know cause that would be a game changer).
Overall, should help save you a bit of time by not having to manually measure stop loss and take profit levels for each trade.
Happy hunting :)
Lorentzian ML [Sublime Traders]Lorentzian ML
Context: The whole idea of this indicator is to use the Lorentzian Classifier (a popular machine learning model suited for analyzing data in a time series) , add some oscillators and filter them with volume averages in order to get precise swing move indications.
The Lorentzian ML indicator uses the Lorenzian Classifier (LDC) algorithm that takes into account the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) and Relative Strength Index (RSI) signals as raw material to provide buy and sell signals. The indicator is accompanied by take profit , stop loss and entry lines based on the Average True Range (ATR).
Features:
1. Lorentzian Classifier:
Uses the difference between the current and previous values of CCI and RSI to generate buy and sell signals.
The classifier threshold can be adjusted using the input parameter.
2. ATR-based Take Profit Line:
A horizontal take profit line is plotted when buy or sell signals occur.
The line is based on the ATR value and a user-defined multiplier.
3. VMA filtering
Using the simple switches: Scalper, Swing or Holder , the users can easily filter the frequency of the signals in addition to the lookback and threshold filters. This will affect the used VMA lines that use data gathered from multiple timeframes.
Visual Representation:
The indicator plots green candles for buy signals and red candles for sell signals.
Buy and sell labels are displayed on the chart to mark the points where signals occur.
The ATR-based take profit line is displayed in a user-defined color and line width.
Visual representation of the VMA lines : Red - bearish , Blue - uncertain , Green - bullish
Changes and features to come
Fix "holder" switch on sell side that sometimes bugs the whole chart.
Add more intuitive filtering methods.
Add two more oscillators to the Lorentzian pool.
Create switches for Lorentzian source.
Scaled Order Sizing and Take Profit Target ArraysWOAH Order Scaling!
This Provides a user with methods to create a list of profit targets and order sizes which grow or shrink. For size, the will add up to specific sum. for Targets they will include the first and last, and can lean towards either, to scale the order grid.
And thanks to @Hoanghetti for the markdown, i've included a basic usage example within the hover , o you don't need to search for the usage example, simply import, and when writing, the code hint contains a full example.
scaled_sizes(total_size, count, weight, min_size, as_percent)
create an array of sizes which grow or shrink from first to last
which add up to 1.0 if set the as_percent flag , or a total value / sum.
Parameters:
total_size : (float) total size to divide ito split
count : (int ) desired number of splits to create
weight : (float) a weight to apply to grow or shrink the split either towards the last being most, or the first being most, or 1.0 being each is equally sized as 1/n count
min_size : (float) a minimum size for the smallest value (in value of ttotal_size units)
as_percent : (float) a minimum size for the smallest value (in value of total_size units)
Returns: Array of Sizes for each split
scaled_targets(count, weight, minimum, maximum)
create a list of take profitt targets from the smallest to larget distance
Parameters:
count : (int ) number of targets
weight : (float) weight to apply to growing or shrinking
minimum : (float) first value of the output
maximum : (float) last value of the output
Returns: Array of percentage targets
Trend Movement S1-TMIdea:
This script combines: Moving Average (MA), Directional Movement (DMI), MACD
When condition of long or short position from all mentioned indicator are met script opens position. Once trend changes, it closes the position.
Then add some filter conditions to avoid noise.
Concept:
(Note that we take the close to get the closing price)
-Using only cross up down with MA will give a reversal point, but the downside is that it can be noisy.
-MACD will show the current trend detected by cross point.
-Then the +DI , -DI , ADX values are taken into account to confirm the price direction and movement strength.
-This strategy solves this problem by combining 2 more moving averages called 2 trend lines 1 long and 1 short. When the short line crosses up, it will show that the price trend is increasing (at this time the background between these 2 lines will be green) and vice versa (red). To determine if the current trend is bullish or bearish . This will avoid buying when price tend to go down.
-However, there will be many points where some more complex logic is needed. It will add conditions and calculate the probabilities before triggering the signals (You can see them through the item symbols B1, B2, ... ).
How it works:
1. The thin line is stand for short term moving average, and the thick line is stand for long term moving average.
If thin lines cross the thick lines, their color and background will turn green, the price is tend to go up (Uptrend).
If thin lines cross down thick lines, their color and background will turn red, the price is tend to go down (Downtrend).
2. Ability to check the checkbox in setting to show the Golden/De*ath cross.
The yellow symbol "+" is the Golden cross.
The black symbol "+" is the De*th cross.
3. Buy and Sell are show clearly on strategy as the buy and sell point. The default source from bar is CLOSE
4. Setting "Buy only" it using for spot market.
5. When "Not buy in down trend" is checked, it will not trigger buy when in down trend (thin lines cross down thick lines like description in 1.)
6. Setting High spread will call Close buy when it match the High spread bar with the High spread % value
7. It provides setting "Back test From date/To date" for backtest feature. You can set "BacktestFrom date" as the begin of test period. If check box "Using To Date" is check: "Backtest To Date" will be the end of test period.
Suitable time frames:
4h, 1D, 1W
* Please note that this logic does not attempt to predict future prices or 100% accurate signal; Strategy Tester are available to test the profitability of this strategy.

kaptanFantastik[Take Profit and Stop Loss Finder]Hello all,
It's ATR based active take profit & stop loss finder.
You can set multipliers for taking profit and stop losing and you can change the price source for the calculation. Also, you can change the ATR level.
Defaults are my best settings. 2.2x for taking profit and 1.5x for stop losing. Open price is the source. Also, I think 5 ATR is the best for day and swing trade.
Levels are determined according to the open prices (This is because we can enter the position after our other indicators give the signal following the close price. Yet, you can change it). Since it's active and based on my calculation with ATR values, percentages for the taking profits and stop losing may change. Because of this, you need to note the take profit and stop lose prices after your entry price level is determined by the other indicators for the best success rates.
It can be used in any time frame with the other indicators to determine the best entry points. For example, 3 EMA levels with 5,8 and 13 is good option for the entry. You can enter the position when 5 crosses up 8 and both are above the 13. You can also use custom more advanced buy/sell indicators with this one for entry points.
It can be used with any asset from cryptocurrency to the stocks, from forex to gold etc.
Hint: You can set your levels lower than the take profit prices to maximize the success rate.
Note: Market should be open for the positions.
Example trade on the 5-minute timeline.
The below chart has both my custom indicator and the 3 EMAs mentioned above.
Trade 1: Entry price: 19191, Take Profit: 19276. Profit 0.44%
Trade 2: Entry price: 19189, Take Profit: 193009. Profit 0.625%
Türkçe bilen kullanıcılar için açıklama
Herkese merhabalar,
ATR tabanlı aktif kar al ve zararı durdur bulucu.
Kar almak ve zararı kesmek için çarpanlar belirleyebilir ve hesaplama için fiyat kaynağı değiştirebilirsiniz. Ayrıca, ATR seviyesini de değiştirebilirsiniz.
Varsayılanlar benim en iyi ayarlarım. Kar almak için 2,2 kat ve zararı durdurmak için 1,5 kat. Açılış, fiyat kaynağıdır. Ayrıca, 5 ATR'nin günlük ve kısa vade (swing trade) için en iyisi olduğunu düşünüyorum.
Seviyeler açılış fiyatına göre belirlenir (Çünkü diğer göstergelerimiz kapanış fiyatının ardından sinyal verdikten sonra pozisyona girebiliyoruz. Yine de bunu değiştirebilirsiniz). Aktif olduğu için ve ATR değerleri ile yaptığım hesaplamaya göre kar alma ve zarar kes yüzdeleri değişebilir. Bu nedenle, en iyi başarı oranları için; giriş fiyat seviyeniz diğer göstergeler tarafından belirlendikten sonra kar al ve zararı durdur fiyatlarını not etmeniz gerekir.
En iyi giriş noktalarını belirlemek için diğer göstergelerle herhangi bir zaman diliminde kullanılabilir. Örneğin, 5,8 ve 13 ile 3 EMA seviyesi giriş için iyi bir seçenektir. 5, 8'i geçtiğinde ve her ikisi de 13'ün üzerinde olduğunda pozisyona girebilirsiniz. Giriş noktaları için bununla birlikte daha gelişmiş özel al/sat göstergelerini de kullanabilirsiniz.
Kripto paradan hisse senetlerine, forexten altına vb. her türlü varlıkla kullanılabilir.
İpucu: Başarı oranını en üst düzeye çıkarmak için seviyelerinizi kar alma fiyatlarından daha düşük ayarlayabilirsiniz.
Not: Pozisyonlar için piyasa açık olmalıdır.
5 dakikalık zaman çizilgesinde örnek işlem.
Yukarıdaki örnek grafikte hem özel indikatörüm hem de yukrıda belirtilen 3 EMA var.
İşlem 1: Giriş fiyatı: 19191, Kazanç Al: 19276. Kar %0.44
İşlem 2: Giriş fiyatı: 19189, Kazanç Al: 193009. Kar %0.625
Lines and Table for risk managementABOUT THIS INDICATOR
This is a simple indicator that can help you manage the risk when you are trading, and especially if you are leverage trading. The indicator can also be used to help visualize and to find trades within a suitable or predefined trading range.
This script calculates and draws six “profit and risk lines” (levels) that show the change in percentage from the current price. The values are also shown in a table, to help you get a quick overview of risk before you trade.
ABOUT THE LINES/VALUES
This indicator draws seven percentage-lines, where the dotted line in the middle represents the current price. The other three lines on top of and below the middle line shows the different levels of change in percentage from current price (dotted line). The values are also shown in a table.
DEFAULT VALUES AND SETTINGS
By default the indicator draw lines 0.5%, 1.0%, and 1.5% from current price (step size = 0.5).
The default setting for leverage in this indicator = 1 (i.e. no leverage).
The line closest to dotted line (current price) is calculated by step size (%) * leverage (x) = % from price.
Pay attention to the %-values in the table, they represent the distance from the current price (dotted line) to where the lines are drawn.
* Be aware! If you change the leverage, the distance from the closest lines to the dotted line showing the current price increase.
SETTINGS
1. Leverage: set the leverage for what you are planning to trade on (1 = no leverage, 2 = 2 x leverage, 5 = 5 x leverage...).
2. Stepsize is used to set the distance between the lines and price.
EXAMPLES WITH DIFFERENT SETTINGS
1) Leverage = 1 (no leverage, default setting) and step size 0.5 (%). Lines plotted at (0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, and –0.5%, –1%, –1,5%) from the current price.
2) Leverage = 3 and stepsize 0.5(%). Lines plotted at (1.5%, 3.0%, 4.5%, and –1.5%, –3.0%, –4.5%) from the current price.
3) Leverage = 3 and stepsize 1(%). Lines plotted at (3%, 6%, 9%, and –3%, –6%, –9%) from the current price.
The distance to the nearest line from the current price is always calculated by the formula: Leverage * step size (%) = % to the nearest line from the current price.
Position Size and PNL CalculatorPosition Size and PNL Calculator is a Tool indicator which will help trader determine Trading's Position Size base on many risk management method such is Risk Per Trade, Fix Position Size, Fix Initial cost. The stoploss of the order will be set after ATR Stoploss method like my lasted Indicator ATR Stop Loss and Take Profit Finder .
This Tool is using the concept of
- ATR ( Average True Range )
- Risk Reward Ratio (Money Management method)
- Leverage Position Size Calculation
- Leverage PNL Calculation
- Risk Per Trade money management for calculating the size of position base on Account Balance and Risk
How Position Size and PNL Calculator working?
1) The tool will let user Input time and price that trader are entering the order. Then trader have to select the direction of trade, weather it is long position or short position
2) Next It will use entry price to Calculate the Stoploss price buy Calculating its ATR according to the setting then, then The entry price will be plus/mins by ATR*Multiply to get a Stoploss price
3) then we will * Risk Reward Ratio to the distance of stoploss in order to create Takeprofit price
4) After then the tool will simulate and calculate Initial cost/Initial position size base on your setting, and will display Stoploss Price, Take Profit Price, PNL% of Loss if Stoploss is trigger, PNL% of Gain if Take profit is Trigger and current RR/ PNL%
5) User can adjust the leverage and other setting in Indicator setting
How to use Position Size and PNL Calculator
As it was mention, Position Size and PNL Calculator is just a tool that help trader determine Trading's Position Size, PNL and risk management. Trader must use this tool only as a Position Tracking after you help entry order with your our trading strategy
