Risk Management: Position Size & Risk RewardHere is a Risk Management Indicator that calculates stop loss and position sizing based on the volatility of the stock. Most traders use a basic 1 or 2% Risk Rule, where they will not risk more than 1 or 2% of their capital on any one trade. I went further and applied four levels of risk: 0.25%, 0.50%, 1% and 2%. How you apply these different levels of risk is what makes this indicator extremely useful. Here are some common ways to apply this script:
• If the stock is extremely volatile and has a better than 50% chance of hitting the stop loss, then risk only 0.25% of your capital on that trade.
• If a stock has low volatility and has less than 20% change of hitting the stop loss, then risk 2% of your capital on that trade.
• Risking anywhere between 0.25% and 2% is purely based on your intuition and assessment of the market.
• If you are on a losing streak and you want to cut back on your position sizing, then lowering the Risk % can help you weather the storm.
• If you are on a winning streak and your entries are experiencing a higher level of success, then gradually increase the Risk % to reap bigger profits.
• If you want to trade outside the noise of the market or take on more noise/risk, you can adjust the ATR Factor.
• … and whatever else you can imagine using it to benefit your trading.
The position size is calculated using the Capital and Risk % fields, which is the percentage of your total trading capital (a.k.a net liquidity or Capital at Risk). If you instead want to calculate the position size based on a specific amount of money, then enter the amount in the Custom Risk Amt input box. Any amount greater than 0 in the Custom Risk Amt field will override the values in the Capital and Risk % fields.
The stop loss is calculated by using the ATR. The default setting is the 14 RMA, but you can change the length and smoothing of the true range moving average to your liking. Selecting a different length and smoothing affects the stop loss and position size, so choose these values very carefully.
The ATR Factor is a multiplier of the ATR. The ATR Factor can be used to adjust the stop loss and move it outside of the market noise. For the more volatile stock, increase the factor to lower the stop loss and reduce the chance of getting stopped out. For stocks with less volatility , you can lower the factor to raise the stop loss and increase position size. Adjusting the ATR Factor can also be useful when you want the stop loss to be at or below key levels of support.
The Market Session is the hours the market is open. The Market Session only affects the Opening Range Breakout (ORB) option, so it’s important to change these values if you’re trading the ORB and you’re outside of Eastern Standard Time or you’re trading in a foreign exchange.
The ORB is a bonus to the script. When enabled, the indicator will only appear in the first green candle of the day (09:30:00 or 09:30 AM EST or the start time specified in Market Session). When using the ORB, the stop loss is based on the spread of the first candle at the Open. The spread is the difference between the High and Low of the green candle. On 1-day or higher timeframes, the indicator will be the spread of the last (or current) candle.
The output of the indicator is a label overlaying the chart:
1. ATR (14 RMA x2) – This indicated that the stop loss is determined by the ATR. The x2 is the ATR Factor. If ORB is selected, then the first line will show SPREAD, instead of ATR.
2. Capital – This is your total capital or capital at risk.
3. Risk X% of Capital – The amount you’re risking on a % of the Capital. If a Custom Risk Amt is entered, then Risk Amount will be shown in place of Capital and Risk % of Capital.
4. Entry – The current price.
5. Stop Loss – The stop loss price.
6. -1R – The stop loss price and the amount that will be lost of the stop loss is hit.
7. – These are the target prices, or levels where you will want to take profit.
This script is primarily meant for people who are new to active trading and who are looking for a sound risk management strategy based on market volatility . This script can also be used by the more experienced trader who is using a similar system, but also wants to see it applied as an indicator on TradingView. I’m looking forward to maintaining this script and making it better in future revisions. If you want to include or change anything you believe will be a good change or feature, then please contact me in TradingView.
ATR
Electrified Aggressive Momentum SignalWhat this can be used for:
If you've already decided you want to trade a symbol, this can identify points of momentum alignment.
If a strong move has recently happened and you're looking for a change in momentum.
How it works:
This is a weighted combination of a Stochastic RSI and two modified SuperTrend (ATR Trailing Stop) indicators:
The Stochastic RSI signal is based upon aligned momentum and is negated at the overbought and oversold points.
The SuperTrend formula uses high and low values for calculation and both fast and slow can be adjusted for sensitivity.
Philosophy:
Signals have to be useful to humans. If a signal occurs to late, you've missed it. The intent of this indicator is to assist in timing a trade at very short time-frames. It assumes your conviction about a trade already exists, but you are trying to get an optimal entry.
Opposing momentum (weak signal) within an uptrend can be a sign that you should wait before entering. The frequency of a signal can indicate the strength of the trend. As the frequency of the aligned signal value decreases so does the reward vs risk.
ATR + %R Scalping StrategyThe Average True Range is a single line indicator that measures volatility. The indicator was originally developed by J. Welles Wilder to measure the volatility of commodities within the futures market.
ATR does not measure price trends or price direction hence %R and Parabolic SAR indicators were added.
The strategy enhances standard Average True Range and %R composition with trend confirmation and filters which clear out market noises and manipulations from triggers.
The strategy supports traditional and cryptocurrency spot, futures, options and marginal trading exchanges. It works accurately with BTC, USD, USDT, ETH and BNB quote currencies. Best to use with 5 and 15 minutes timeframe charts and Limit orders.
The strategy can be and should be configured for each particular asset. You can change filters and risk management settings to receive the most advanced accurate alerts
Advantages of this script:
Strategy has high profit factor around 30.32
Backtests show high accuracy around 91.18%
High Net Profit percentage
Low Drawdowns
Weak signals are filtered
Dynamic Take profit and Stop loss
Fast deals around 50 minutes per trade
Can be applied to any market and quote currency
Easy to configure user interface
How to use?
1. Apply strategy to the trading pair your are interested in at 5m or 15m timeframe chart
2. Configure the strategy: change filters values and risk management settings until Strategy tester shows good results according to mathematical expectation
3. Set up a TradingView alert to trigger when strategy conditions are met
4. Strategy will send alerts when to enter and when to exit positions
ATR Without OutliersIt is an ATR indicator which filters out outliers.
Outliers are values which are higher than the standard deviation of the true range.
It may be better than normal ATR for stop loss, because it does not keep large values after pump or dump.
It is very useful for high volatile markets like crypto markets.
Rectangular ATR LevelsHelpful in forming Support resistance Judgements
Rectangular ATR Levels
is calculated using multipliers of the ATR value at the Previous Day's Close and plotting them on current day price movements as levels

Tiger's Stop - Objective Stoploss SettingTrading is a lot about risk management too. I created this script to help with setting and moving a proper stop-loss. It plots an area that is a result of adding and subtracting both average true range and something I call "false range".
►The Average True Range is calculated as the candle's high-low. If there is a gap, it is added to complete the result.
►My own False Range just candle bodies. It is calculated as an absolute value of (close-open).
Then, Rolling Moving Average is applied on both ATR and False Range to get an idea of how far the price tends to extend out of pure randomness. The resulting value is multiplied by a Multiplier.
The next step is an addition of the values to the higher part of the candle for short or a lower part of the candle for long. I prefer a special calculation instead of using Highs and Lows because it allows for more precise observation and stop-loss set up for less wicky symbols.
►►►Additional Functions
• Smoothing - applies moving average to candles from which range distance is calculated. This can achieve good smoothness but higher values will lead to using outdated price in the SL area calculation.
• Enable/Disable - if you know the direction you are going to trade in, it is good to disable either Long Stop-Loss Area or Short Stop-Loss Area. Just untick it in the settings.
►►►Actual Using
Before using the script to set your stop-loss, check the historical data and find a similar set-up. Is it engulfing you use as a trigger? Find a different one and see how effective the stop-loss based on the ATR*multiplier was. This will help you to optimize Multiplier value. A picture shows such research for a double top. You should find more similar situations to find an optimal value.
Ultimately, the indicator still gives you relatively a lot of freedom with your stop-loss settings (at least, that is with the default settings). You need to decide how loose stop-loss you want to set. Average True Range is the furthermost part which will make for a very large stop-loss, on the other hand, False Range might be triggered by a villainous wick unnecessarily. The choice should depend on the specific symbol you trade and perhaps, you will learn to set stops regardless of the indicator.
A little trick : 1. You can set the loosest stop-loss and set a TradingView alert for where the tightest stop-loss would be. When alerted, you will get the opportunity to reconsider the trade and take a loss if needs be or exit if a candle closes there. 2. Mostly for cryptocurrencies, you can set the tightest stop-loss to protect yourself from sudden spikes. If the price approaches it slowly enough, you can move the stop-loss to the further part of the channel. This is not the same as moving stop-loss indefinitely with hopes of reversal if you plan it from the beginning and a smaller stop is meant to protect you from spikes that are not always predictable and drive to both directions.
►►►Advantages of trailing stop-loss
I usually stick with my original stop-loss instead of moving to break even. If my entry area was functional support once, it may work again and is, therefore, still a good entry zone. But an alternative used to preserve as much of the profit as possible is trailing.
Trailing is setting a specific value in ticks or a calculation of how to move the stop-loss whenever the price moves in your favor. Tiger's Stop can be used this way. Whenever there is a new value as the candle closes and that value is closer to price than your current stop-loss, you can update it. However, if it moves further from your price, don't change the stop-loss. This can be a little tiresome if you do it manually but should be worth the effort.
I usually start trailing only after the price moves significantly in my favor that allowing it to return to the entry price would not make any sense.
►►►Feedback and optimization
The preview chart is chosen entirely at random and the values are not optimized for any specific symbol. If you opt to use it, let me know which values work for you the best, I'll add it to the description when I update it.
Furthermore, let me know if you think any sort of alerts would be useful with my script.
Good luck!
Trend MagicTrend Magic is originally a MT platform (MetaTrader) indicator and it can be used with any forex trading systems / strategies for additional confirmation of trading entries or exits. Converted the MT platform code to TradingView Pine version 4. Also you can use Multiple Time Frame.
It also works well with Crypto and Stock Markets.
Trend Magic consists of two main calculation parts as momentum and volatility:
First part is ATR based (like ATR Trailing Stop) logic, second part is all about CCI which also determines the color of Trend Magic.
Blue: when CCI is positive
Red: when CCI is negative
Also added alert condition regarding price crosses :
when LOW CrossesAbove TM
and HIGH CrossesBelow TM
Enjoy

VR-MASTThis is a my script for a super simple trading strategy - ZEST.
Identify Zone of Value, Enter on pullback, place proper Stop Loss and set achievable Targets.
So, to identify Zone of Value, I have EMA in my script.
20EMA generally acts as a dynamic Support/Resistance zone.
For Buy Stop Loss, we have 1ATR below Swing Low.
Then, we have SuperTrend for Trailing Stop Loss.
Moving average of 1-period Percent ChangeAnother way of finding the average range of the bars using 1 period percentage change of the price and taking an average of them. It's given in percentages and the absolute value of the average can be shown when the option is turned on, or the average including the up and down bars can be shown. Perhaps an alternative way of looking at volatility or range of the bars. If you prefer a line version over histogram, just simply change the style under the settings of the indicator.
PVA Range High & LowFINALLY LEFT. the RANGE DAILY at the top RDH and the RANGE DAILY at the bottom RDL, is a PVSRA indicator used to calculate the daily ATR (Average True Range), with the help of my friend @ferhro, I was the one that managed to get closer to the original indicator for the metatrader 4.
Let's the features.
This indicator works as a support and natural resistance of the price, as it has a similarity with the pz supertrend, only on the daily chart.
Range daily High is the gray color and Range daily Low is the red color.
To extract the greatest potential from this indicator, I recommend using forex.
The indicator will be open source for suggestions for improvements.
Trend Surfers - Fix Stoploss PickerThis study include 3 types of stop-loss (ATR, High/Low and Pivot point)
This script aimed to help new traders to respect risk management.

Please let me know in the comment if you would like me to add more indicators for the stop-loss in this script.
Hope you like it!
VWAP-ATR-SSLThis is an experimental idea to transform the original script created by @Fleite28 in a kind of SSL with volatility bands.
@Fleite28 has made all script and he have all credits, I just give him this idea.
I'm using this indicator to confirm:
1-potential bull trend (when you have 2x green lines with support)
2-potential bear trend (2x lines red - resistance)
3-consolidations (inside green support and red resistance).
Try to use this with a Market Profile Volume and some trend lines.
HalfTrendA popular trend indicator based on ATR. Similar to the SuperTrend but uses a different trend's identification logic.
I am publishing a disclosed code without license. Remember that in the future you may see a lot of paid IO scripts called BuySellScalper, Trend Trader Karan, Trend Trader and etc (by other authors) which will be based on this script. I found the same script on Ebay for $10 with a free shipping. Beware, always check and follow one Russian wisdom: "Do not pay for something you can get for free".
Renovation-10 (Including 10 Traditional Indicators)This idea is not rare. It is just a combination of 10 most well know and traditional Indicators to form one renovated indicator. There are Moving Average (MA), Volume (V), Bollinger Band (BB), Relative Strength Index ( RSI ), Stochastic RSI, Modified Stochastic RSI, Moving Average Convergence Divergence ( MACD ), Average directional index ( ADX ), Average True Range (ATR) and Parabolic Stop and Reverse (PSAR). These indicators most I found was just showing entering position strategic alone. I just want to know how well them work together when combination. I modified many times and thinking for the strategic enter and exist position with the choice of these 10 indicators to maximize the profitability which shows in strategic tester in every stock and conditions.
THEORY:
Fluctuation of price is like a Wave which I categorized it into four period. They are Sideway, Breakout Positive and Negative, Retracement and Consolidation. Breakout is rare to happen, either go up or go down. After a breakout usually will have small retracement, then trend will go for sideway. After long period of sideway, the wave is starting to run out of energy and there will be consolidation period.
STRATEGIC OPTION:
S: Sideway Period
B: Breakout Period
R: Retracement Period
(+): Buy
(-): Sell
PROBLEM:
1. Not performing very well at very penny stock which the graph looks like barcode.
Suggesting can change daily graph to weekly graph to avoid.
2. Be careful with Sideway entry signal because sometimes price may continue go down. You will stuck at middle if you enter without confirmation.
Confirm the price is stable at support by current low is higher or equal to past three to five day low before entry.
3.Always remember Breakout is rare, do not push for luck
Always make profit at Sideway and Retracement trend. Can Sell half only at BB when breakout buying signal is available, to avoid losing chance of chasing breakout.
4. Breakout selling signal 2 may delay
After breakout, make sure sell all when 2-3 red candle appeared or When BB is squeezing.
5. Other tools may required to confirm entry position.
These combination strategic is more to personal experiences and knowledges, it hard to adjust in coding for strategic position.
This is my first publication and I just do it for fun, having fun in reading the script and creating own ideas.

MM AverageTrueRangehUllFeatures:
- Powerful 2 calculation used in one. Average True Range Multiplier & Sensitivity.
- Clearly shows trend direction, volatility , momentum & sentiment of any financial market.
- Dynamic stop loss levels formed by the help of average true range calculation which are produce right from the long or short signal and does stretch until the opposite directional signal appears.
- Generates potential long and short trade signals using complex formula of volatility , momentum and trend following.
- ATR calculation method can be changed from normal (ATR) to SMA version true range inside setting by ticking or unticking the input function named “Change ATR Calculation Method?”.
- Long and short signals labels can be turn off/on using “Reveal Long/Short Signals?”. - Background color can be shown/hidden using “Signal-light Show/Hide?”.
- Alert feature available for long and short signals.
Important two main settings of ATRH indicator:
1. ATR Multiplier
o A retail trader should adjust the setting depending on the financial market, instrument and timeframe as per required.
o Basically, higher timeframe has more range in price so ATR multiplier can be set higher.
o ATR multiplier value lower can produce more signals which will be as more trades opportunities but it can also lead to fake signals. 3-5 value is producing reasonable signals in any timeframe either it be lower or it be higher. If a trader by mistake doesn’t set a proper input value then the whole indicator could even function poorly so this setting must be used wisely.
2. Sensitivity
o Sensitivity can be from 0 to 1. It can be also integer or floating-point number example: 0.1, 0.3, 0.8 etc.
o It is used to control the signal generation speed by 3 to 5 candle bars before (if the value is set higher) or after (if the value is set lower) during the time of condition meeting for either long or short signals.
o Depending on any financial market or instrument sensitivity value should be managed well by a trader for his/her needs taking consideration on the nature of that particular financial market or instrument & timeframe.

Running Bound based on ATR multiplierThis script basically uses default ATR and then
Multiplies with ATR multiplier (3 for crypto and 2 for forex) - you can change the values from the settings if you like
Adds/subtracts from the current price
And tries to find a bound on both side of price
VBand StrategyVBand Strategy is simply used Vwap funcation and atr 14 for find the entry and exit points. This simple Strategy.
ATR Compression/expansionThe indicator is used to gauge the short term volatility of the instrument relative to its long term volatility.
The green columns of histogram represent lower short term volatility relative to long term, whereas Red columns of histogram represent Higher short term volatility relative to long term.
Higher the bar higher the strength of the signal.
This indicator is inspired by Matt Caruso's(Canslim Champion investor) chat on Richard Moglen's(Champion trading youtuber) podcast.
Phoenix085-Strategies==>MTF - Average True Range + MovAvgFIRSTLY, Here are a few who have influenced my pinescripting immensely recently:
@JustUncleL
@BigBitsIO
@TheArtofTrading
@QuantNomad
@SquigglesNiggles and many many many more.
Overview:
> This indicator is a simple crossover of Moving Averages.
> In addition I am using ATR rising as an indication for Trending Price.
> The entry is made once the smaller moving average crosses the bigger moving average, and also the Closes above the Smaller moving average.
> but the only twist here is,
- the ATR source is One timeframe Higher(In this case same as the session).whereas the source for the Moving averages is one Timeframe Lower.
>i.e., if the Session is 1D, the Indicator checks if the ATR is rising in the DAILY TIMEFRAME,
*_* the trade entry is made once the MOVING AVERAGE crossover happens on ONE TIME FRAME lower, as per example, ATR --> 1D = MA -->4H.
> Moving Average ->
- Thick -> Bigger MA,
- Thin and Transparent -> Smaller MA,
> Also, the Color of the Thicker MOVING AVERAGE Changes as Below:
- When LongCondition is satisfied --> Color=Lime
- When ShortCondition is satisfied --> Color=Red
- When neither condition is satisfied --> Color=Gray
NOTE:
1) There is a limitation in using the Securities function for FREE USERS --> Only 500 bars are allowed. So to use the indicators with more data, you need an upgraded TV account.
2) Strategy still needs Fine tuning, but for now, use the Thicker moving average color LIME FOR LONG ENTRIES and RED FOR SHORT ENTRIES.

ATR Volatility Bars 1.0This script will be featured in upcoming video ideas about catching liquidations spikes in cryptocurrencies.
The script measures the unique size of each bar compared to the Average True Range (ATR) of the evaluation period. The evaluation period can be set in the inputs. The desired benchmark for what will be highlighted is also set in the inputs as a percentage. The default settings are to evaluate the last 26 bars for ATR and highlight bars that are 300% or larger than ATR.
When a bar meets the criteria of the indicator it will show a label and highlight the bar accordingly. The user may select the indicator to only show Buy or Sell opportunities. The indicator has alert functionality.
