MH Strategy – Hull Moving Average-Based Trading StrategyThe MH Strategy is a TradingView strategy that leverages the Hull Moving Average (HullMA) to generate precise buy and sell signals. This strategy is designed to identify trend reversals and momentum shifts using a combination of weighted moving averages and HullMA-based calculations.
Key Features:
✅ Hull Moving Average-Based Signals – Uses a modified HullMA calculation to detect trend changes.
✅ Dynamic Support & Resistance – The strategy plots adaptive levels that act as dynamic entry and exit points.
✅ Trend-Based Entries & Exits – Generates long (buy) signals when the price moves above the calculated Hull retraction level and short (sell) signals when the price moves below it.
✅ Automated Trade Execution – Integrates with TradingView’s strategy function to open and close trades automatically based on signal conditions.
✅ Customizable Parameters – Allows users to adjust the HullMA period and price data source to optimize performance across different markets and timeframes.
How It Works:
HullMA Calculation: The strategy calculates a smoothed Hull Moving Average (HullMA) using a two-step weighted moving average method.
Trend Confirmation: The difference between the HullMA values helps determine trend direction and retraction levels.
Entry Conditions:
A buy signal is generated when the price is above the retraction level, and the previous price confirms the trend.
A sell signal is triggered when the price is below the retraction level with trend confirmation.
Exit Conditions:
The strategy closes long trades when the price drops below a threshold.
It closes short trades when the price rises above a set level.
Ideal Use Cases:
🔹 Swing & trend traders looking for momentum-based entries and exits.
🔹 Traders aiming for reduced lag compared to traditional moving averages.
🔹 Markets with strong price trends, such as forex, stocks, and crypto.

Candlestick analysis
Enhanced Doji Candle StrategyYour trading strategy is a Doji Candlestick Reversal Strategy designed to identify potential market reversals using Doji candlestick patterns. These candles indicate indecision in the market, and when detected, your strategy uses a Simple Moving Average (SMA) with a short period of 20 to confirm the overall market trend. If the price is above the SMA, the trend is considered bullish; if it's below, the trend is bearish.
Once a Doji is detected, the strategy waits for one or two consecutive confirmation candles that align with the market trend. For a bullish confirmation, the candles must close higher than their opening price without significant bottom wicks. Conversely, for a bearish confirmation, the candles must close lower without noticeable top wicks. When these conditions are met, a trade is entered at the market price.
The risk management aspect of your strategy is clearly defined. A stop loss is automatically placed at the nearest recent swing high or low, with a tighter distance of 5 pips to allow for more trading opportunities. A take-profit level is set using a 2:1 reward-to-risk ratio, meaning the potential reward is twice the size of the risk on each trade.
Additionally, the strategy incorporates an early exit mechanism. If a reversal Doji forms in the opposite direction of your trade, the position is closed immediately to minimize losses. This strategy has been optimized to increase trade frequency by loosening the strictness of Doji detection and confirmation conditions while still maintaining sound risk management principles.
The strategy is coded in Pine Script for use on TradingView and uses built-in indicators like the SMA for trend detection. You also have flexible parameters to adjust risk levels, take-profit targets, and stop-loss placements, allowing you to tailor the strategy to different market conditions.
3 Red / 3 Green Strategy with Volatility CheckStrategy Name: 3 Red / 3 Green Strategy with Volatility Check by AlgoTradeKit
Overview
This long-only strategy is designed for daily bars on NASDAQ (or similar instruments) and combines simple price action with a volatility filter. It “tells it like it is” – enter when the market shows weakness, but only in sufficiently volatile conditions, and exit either on signs of a reversal or after a set number of days.
Entry Conditions
- Price Action :
Enter a long position when there are 3 consecutive red days (each day's close is below its open).
- Volatility Filter :
The entry is allowed only if the current ATR (Average True Range) calculated over the specified ATR Period (default 12) is greater than its 30-day simple moving average. This ensures the market has enough volatility to justify the trade.
Exit Conditions
- Reversal Signal :
Exit the long position when 3 consecutive green days occur (each day's close is above its open), signaling a potential reversal.
- Time Limit :
Regardless of market conditions, any open trade is closed if it reaches the Maximum Trade Duration (default 22 days). This helps limit exposure during stagnant or unfavorable market conditions.
- You can toggle the three-green-day exit if you want to isolate the time-based exit.
Input Parameters
- Maximum Trade Duration (days): Default is 22 days.
- ATR Period: Default is 12.
- Use 3 Green Days Exit: Toggle to enable or disable the three-green-day exit condition.
How It Works
1. Entry: The strategy monitors daily price action for 3 consecutive down days. When this occurs and if the market is volatile enough (current ATR > 30-day ATR average), it opens a long position.
2. Exit: The position is closed if the price action reverses with 3 consecutive up days or if the trade has been open for the maximum allowed duration - i.e. use it on daily chart.
Risk Management
- The built-in maximum trade duration prevents trades from lingering too long in a non-trending or consolidating market.
- The volatility filter helps ensure that trades are only taken when there is sufficient price movement, potentially increasing the odds of a meaningful move.
Disclaimer
This strategy is provided “as is” without any warranties. It is essential to backtest and validate the performance on your specific instrument and market conditions before deploying live capital. Trading involves significant risk, and you should adjust parameters to match your risk tolerance.
Test and tweak this strategy to see if it fits your trading style and market conditions. Happy trading!
GM+For a Short Trade:
When a bullish candle (close > open) is larger than the previous candle and the MACD histogram for the past three bars is consecutively lower (suggesting weakening upward momentum), the script enters a short position.
For a Long Trade:
When a bearish candle (close < open) is larger (in body size) than the previous candle and the MACD histogram for the past three bars is consecutively higher (suggesting the downward move is losing strength), the script enters a long position.
Position Management:
There are no stop loss or take profit levels. The position is closed only when an opposite signal appears.
[SHORT ONLY] 10 Bar Low Pullback█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "10 Bar Low Pullback" strategy is a contrarian short trading system designed to capture pullbacks after a new 10‐bar low is made. it identifies a potential short opportunity when the current bar’s low breaks below the lowest low of the previous 10 bars, provided that the bar exhibits strong internal momentum as measured by its IBS value. An optional trend filter further refines entries by requiring that the close is below a 200-period EMA.
█ WHAT IS INTERNAL BAR STRENGTH (IBS)?
Internal Bar Strength (IBS) measures where the closing price falls within the high-low range of a bar. It is calculated as:
ibs = (close - low) / (high - low)
- Low IBS (≤ 0.2): Indicates the close is near the bar's low, suggesting oversold conditions.
- High IBS (≥ 0.8): Indicates the close is near the bar's high, suggesting overbought conditions.
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. SHORT ENTRY
A Short Signal is triggered when:
The current bar’s low is below the lowest low of the past X bars (default: 10).
The bar’s IBS is greater than the specified threshold (default: 0.85).
The signal occurs within the defined trading window (between Start Time and End Time).
If the EMA Filter is enabled, the close must be below the 200-period EMA.
2. EXIT CONDITION
An exit Signal is generated when the current close falls below the previous bar’s low (close < low ), indicating a potential bearish reversal and prompting the strategy to close its short position.
█ ADDITIONAL SETTINGS
Lookback Period: Defines the number of bars (default is 10) over which the lowest low is calculated.
IBS Threshold: Sets the minimum required IBS value (default is 0.85) to qualify as a pullback.
Trading Window: Trades are only executed between the user-defined Start Time and End Time.
EMA Filter (Optional): When enabled, short entries are only considered if the current close is below the 200-period EMA, with the EMA period being adjustable (default is 200).
█ PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
Designed for shorting opportunities, this strategy aims to capture pullbacks following an aggressive 10-bar low break.
It leverages a combination of a lookback low and IBS measurement to identify overextended bullish moves that may revert.
The optional EMA filter helps confirm a bearish market environment by ensuring the price remains under the trend line.
Suitable for use on various assets, including stocks and ETFs, on daily or similar timeframes.
Backtesting and parameter optimization are recommended to tailor the strategy to specific market conditions.
[SHORT ONLY] ATR Sell the Rip Mean Reversion Strategy█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "ATR Sell the Rip Mean Reversion Strategy" is a contrarian system that targets overextended price moves on stocks and ETFs. It calculates an ATR‐based trigger level to identify shorting opportunities. When the current close exceeds this smoothed ATR trigger, and if the close is below a 200-period EMA (if enabled), the strategy initiates a short entry, aiming to profit from an anticipated corrective pullback.
█ HOW IS THE ATR SIGNAL BAND CALCULATED?
This strategy computes an ATR-based signal trigger as follows:
Calculate the ATR
The strategy computes the Average True Range (ATR) using a configurable period provided by the user:
atrValue = ta.atr(atrPeriod)
Determine the Threshold
Multiply the ATR by a predefined multiplier and add it to the current close:
atrThreshold = close + atrValue * atrMultInput
Smooth the Threshold
Apply a Simple Moving Average over a specified period to smooth out the threshold, reducing noise:
signalTrigger = ta.sma(atrThreshold, smoothPeriodInput)
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. SHORT ENTRY
A Short Signal is triggered when:
The current close is above the smoothed ATR signal trigger.
The trade occurs within the specified trading window (between Start Time and End Time).
If the EMA filter is enabled, the close must also be below the 200-period EMA.
2. EXIT CONDITION
An exit Signal is generated when the current close falls below the previous bar’s low (close < low ), indicating a potential bearish reversal and prompting the strategy to close its short position.
█ ADDITIONAL SETTINGS
ATR Period: The period used to calculate the ATR, allowing for adaptability to different volatility conditions (default is 20).
ATR Multiplier: The multiplier applied to the ATR to determine the raw threshold (default is 1.0).
Smoothing Period: The period over which the raw ATR threshold is smoothed using an SMA (default is 10).
Start Time and End Time: Defines the time window during which trades are allowed.
EMA Filter (Optional): When enabled, short entries are only executed if the current close is below the 200-period EMA, confirming a bearish trend.
█ PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
This strategy is designed for use on the Daily timeframe, targeting stocks and ETFs by capitalizing on overextended price moves.
It utilizes a dynamic, ATR-based trigger to identify when prices have potentially peaked, setting the stage for a mean reversion short entry.
The optional EMA filter helps align trades with broader market trends, potentially reducing false signals.
Backtesting is recommended to fine-tune the ATR multiplier, smoothing period, and EMA settings to match the volatility and behavior of specific markets.
[SHORT ONLY] Consecutive Bars Above MA Strategy█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "Consecutive Bars Above MA Strategy" is a contrarian trading system aimed at exploiting overextended bullish moves in stocks and ETFs. It monitors the number of consecutive bars that close above a chosen short-term moving average (which can be either a Simple Moving Average or an Exponential Moving Average). Once the count reaches a preset threshold and the current bar’s close exceeds the previous bar’s high within a designated trading window, a short entry is initiated. An optional EMA filter further refines entries by requiring that the current close is below the 200-period EMA, helping to ensure that trades are taken in a bearish environment.
█ HOW ARE THE CONSECUTIVE BULLISH COUNTS CALCULATED?
The strategy utilizes a counter variable, `bullCount`, to track consecutive bullish bars based on their relation to the short-term moving average. Here’s how the count is determined:
Initialize the Counter
The counter is initialized at the start:
var int bullCount = na
Bullish Bar Detection
For each bar, if the close is above the selected moving average (either SMA or EMA, based on user input), the counter is incremented:
bullCount := close > signalMa ? (na(bullCount) ? 1 : bullCount + 1) : 0
Reset on Non-Bullish Condition
If the close does not exceed the moving average, the counter resets to zero, indicating a break in the consecutive bullish streak.
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. SHORT ENTRY
A short signal is generated when:
The number of consecutive bullish bars (i.e., bars closing above the short-term MA) meets or exceeds the defined threshold (default: 3).
The current bar’s close is higher than the previous bar’s high.
The signal occurs within the specified trading window (between Start Time and End Time).
Additionally, if the EMA filter is enabled, the entry is only executed when the current close is below the 200-period EMA.
2. EXIT CONDITION
An exit signal is triggered when the current close falls below the previous bar’s low, prompting the strategy to close the short position.
█ ADDITIONAL SETTINGS
Threshold: The number of consecutive bullish bars required to trigger a short entry (default is 3).
Trading Window: The Start Time and End Time inputs define when the strategy is active.
Moving Average Settings: Choose between SMA and EMA, and set the MA length (default is 5), which is used to assess each bar’s bullish condition.
EMA Filter (Optional): When enabled, this filter requires that the current close is below the 200-period EMA, supporting entries in a downtrend.
█ PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
This strategy is designed for stocks and ETFs and can be applied across various timeframes.
It seeks to capture mean reversion by shorting after a series of bullish bars suggests an overextended move.
The approach employs a contrarian short entry by waiting for a breakout (close > previous high) following consecutive bullish bars.
The adjustable moving average settings and optional EMA filter allow for further optimization based on market conditions.
Comprehensive backtesting is recommended to fine-tune the threshold, moving average parameters, and filter settings for optimal performance.
[SHORT ONLY] Consecutive Close>High[1] Mean Reversion Strategy█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "Consecutive Close > High " Mean Reversion Strategy is a contrarian daily trading system for stocks and ETFs. It identifies potential shorting opportunities by counting consecutive days where the closing price exceeds the previous day's high. When this consecutive day count reaches a predetermined threshold, and if the close is below a 200-period EMA (if enabled), a short entry is triggered, anticipating a corrective pullback.
█ HOW ARE THE CONSECUTIVE BULLISH COUNTS CALCULATED?
The strategy uses a counter variable called `bullCount` to track how many consecutive bars meet a bullish condition. Here’s a breakdown of the process:
Initialize the Counter
var int bullCount = 0
Bullish Bar Detection
Every time the close exceeds the previous bar's high, increment the counter:
if close > high
bullCount += 1
Reset on Bearish Bar
When there is a clear bearish reversal, the counter is reset to zero:
if close < low
bullCount := 0
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. SHORT ENTRY
A Short Signal is triggered when:
The count of consecutive bullish closes (where close > high ) reaches or exceeds the defined threshold (default: 3).
The signal occurs within the specified trading window (between Start Time and End Time).
2. EXIT CONDITION
An exit Signal is generated when the current close falls below the previous bar’s low (close < low ), prompting the strategy to exit the position.
█ ADDITIONAL SETTINGS
Threshold: The number of consecutive bullish closes required to trigger a short entry (default is 3).
Start Time and End Time: The time window during which the strategy is allowed to execute trades.
EMA Filter (Optional): When enabled, short entries are only triggered if the current close is below the 200-period EMA.
█ PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
This strategy is designed for Stocks and ETFs on the Daily timeframe and targets overextended bullish moves.
It aims to capture mean reversion by entering short after a series of consecutive bullish closes.
Further optimization is possible with additional filters (e.g., EMA, volume, or volatility).
Backtesting should be used to fine-tune the threshold and filter settings for specific market conditions.
CBC Strategy with Trend Confirmation & Separate Stop LossCBC Flip Strategy with Trend Confirmation and ATR-Based Targets
This strategy is based on the CBC Flip concept taught by MapleStax and inspired by the original CBC Flip indicator by AsiaRoo. It focuses on identifying potential reversals or trend continuation points using a combination of candlestick patterns (CBC Flips), trend filters, and a time-based entry window. This approach helps traders avoid false signals and increase trade accuracy.
What is a CBC Flip?
The CBC Flip is a candlestick-based pattern that identifies moments when the market is likely to change direction or strengthen its trend. It checks for a shift in price behavior between consecutive candles, signaling a bullish (upward) or bearish (downward) move.
However, not all flips are created equal! This strategy differentiates between Strong Flips and All Flips, allowing traders to choose between a more conservative or aggressive approach.
Strong Flips vs. All Flips
Strong Flips
A Strong Flip is a high-probability setup that occurs only after liquidity is swept from the previous candle’s high or low.
What is a liquidity sweep? This happens when the price briefly moves beyond the high or low of the previous candle, triggering stop-losses and trapping traders in the wrong direction. These sweeps often create fuel for the next move, making them powerful reversal signals.
Examples:
Long Setup: The price dips below the previous candle’s low (sweeping liquidity) and then closes higher, signaling a potential bullish move.
Short Setup: The price moves above the previous candle’s high and then closes lower, signaling a potential bearish move.
Why Use Strong Flips?
They provide fewer signals, but the accuracy is generally higher.
Ideal for trending markets where liquidity sweeps often mark key turning points.
All Flips
All Flips are less selective, offering both Strong Flips and additional signals without requiring a liquidity sweep.
This approach gives traders more frequent opportunities but comes with a higher risk of false signals, especially in sideways markets.
Examples:
Long Setup: A CBC flip occurs without sweeping the previous low, but the trend direction is confirmed (slow EMA is still above VWAP).
Short Setup: A CBC flip occurs without sweeping the previous high, but the trend is still bearish (slow EMA below VWAP).
Why Use All Flips?
Provides more frequent entries for active or aggressive traders.
Works well in trending markets but requires caution during consolidation periods.
How This Strategy Works
The strategy combines CBC Flips with multiple filters to ensure better trade quality:
Trend Confirmation: The slow EMA (20-period) must be positioned relative to the VWAP to confirm the overall trend direction.
Long Trades: Slow EMA must be above VWAP (upward trend).
Short Trades: Slow EMA must be below VWAP (downward trend).
Time-Based Filter: Traders can specify trading hours to limit entries to a particular time window, helping avoid low-volume or high-volatility periods.
Profit Target and Stop-Loss:
Profit Target: Defined as a multiple of the 14-period ATR (Average True Range). For example, if the ATR is 10 points and the profit target multiplier is set to 1.5, the strategy aims for a 15-point profit.
Stop-Loss: Uses a dynamic, candle-based stop-loss:
Long Trades: The trade closes if the market closes below the low of two candles ago.
Short Trades: The trade closes if the market closes above the high of two candles ago.
This approach adapts to recent price behavior and protects against unexpected reversals.
Customizable Settings
Strong Flips vs. All Flips: Choose between a more selective or aggressive entry style.
Profit Target Multiplier: Adjust the ATR multiplier to control the distance for profit targets.
Entry Time Range: Define specific trading hours for the strategy.

📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The first setting you will want to set it the pyramiding setting. This setting controls the number of simultaneous trades in the same direction allowed in the strategy. For example, if you set it to 1, only one trade can be active in any time, and the second trade will not be entered unless the first one is exited. If it is set to 2, the script will handle both of them at the same time. Note that you should enter the same value to this pyramiding setting, and the pyramiding setting in the "Properties" tab of the script for this to work.
You can enable and set a backtesting window that will limit the entries to between the start date & end date.
Then, you can enter your desired settings for Supply & Demand Zones. You can also enable and set up to 3 timeframes, which you can use later on when customizing your strategies enter / exit conditions.
Entry Conditions
From the "Long Conditions" or the "Short Conditions" groups, you can set your position entry conditions. For settings like "initial capital" or "order size", you can open the "Properties" tab, where these are handled.
The S&D Automation can use the following conditions for entry conditions :
1. Demand Zone
Detection: Triggered when a Demand Zone forms or is detected
Retest: Triggered when price retests a Demand Zone. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters a Demand Zone and closes outside of it.
2nd Retest: Triggered when price retests a Demand Zone for the second time. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters a Demand Zone and closes outside of it.
3rd Retest: Triggered when price retests a Demand Zone for the third time. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters a Demand Zone and closes outside of it.
Retracement: Triggered when price touches a Demand Zone
Break: Triggered when a Demand Zone is invalidated by candle close or wick, depending on the user's input.
2. Supply Zone
Detection: Triggered when a Supply Zone forms or is detected
Retest: Triggered when price retests a Supply Zone. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters a Supply Zone and closes outside of it.
2nd Retest: Triggered when price retests a Supply Zone for the second time. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters a Supply Zone and closes outside of it.
3rd Retest: Triggered when price retests a Supply Zone for the third time. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters a Supply Zone and closes outside of it.
Retracement: Triggered when price touches a Supply Zone
Break: Triggered when a Supply Zone is invalidated by candle close or wick, depending on the user's input.
3. Any Zone
Detection: Triggered when any Supply or Demand Zone forms or is detected
Retest: Triggered when price retests any Supply or Demand Zone. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters any Supply or Demand Zone and closes outside of it.
2nd Retest: Triggered when price retests any Supply or Demand Zone for the second time. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters any Supply or Demand Zone and closes outside of it.
3rd Retest: Triggered when price retests any Supply or Demand Zone for the third time. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters any Supply or Demand Zone and closes outside of it.
Retracement: Triggered when price touches any Supply or Demand Zone
Break: Triggered when any Supply or Demand Zone is invalidated by candle close or wick, depending on the user's input.
🕒 TIMEFRAME CONDITIONS
The S&D Automation supports Multi-Timeframe (MTF) features, just like the Supply & Demand indicator. When setting an entry condition, you can also choose the timeframe.
To set up MTF conditions, navigate to the 'Timeframes' section in the settings, select your desired timeframes, and enable them. You can choose up to three timeframes.
Once you've selected your timeframes, you can use them in your strategy. When setting long and short entry/exit conditions, you can choose from Timeframe 1, Timeframe 2, or Timeframe 3.
External Conditions
Users can use external indicators on the chart to set entry conditions.
The second dropdown in the external condition settings allows you to choose a conditional operator to compare external outputs. Available options include:
Less Than or Equal To: <=
Less Than: <
Equal To: =
Greater Than: >
Greater Than or Equal To: >=
The position entry conditions work like this ;
Each side has 5 S&D Zone conditions and 1 Source condition. Each condition can be enabled or disabled using the checkbox on the left side of them.
The next selection is the alert type, which you can select between "Detection", "Retest", "Retracement" or "Break".
You can select which timeframe this condition should work on from Timeframe 1, 2, or 3. If you select "Any Timeframe", the condition will work for all timeframes.
Lastly select the step of this condition from 1 to 6.
The Source Condition
The last condition on each side is a source condition that is different from the others. Using this condition, you can create your own logic using other indicators' outputs on your chart. For example, suppose that you have an EMA indicator in your chart. You can have the source condition to something like "EMA > high".
The Step System
Each condition has a step number, and conditions are in topological order based on them.
The conditions are executed step by step. This means the condition with step 2 cannot be executed before the condition with step 1 is executed.
Conditions with the same step numbers have "OR" logic. This means that if you have 2 conditions with step 3, the condition with step 4 can trigger after only one of the step 3 conditions is executed.
➕ OTHER ENTRY FEATURES
The S&D Automation allows traders to choose when to execute trades and when not to execute trades.
1. Only Take Trades
This setting lets users specify the time period when their strategy can open or execute trades.
2. Don't Take Trades
This setting lets users specify time periods when their strategy can't open or execute trades.
↩️ EXIT CONDITIONS
1. Exit on Opposite Signal
When enabled, a long position will close when short entry conditions are met, and a short position will close when long entry conditions are met.
2. Exit on Session End
When enabled, positions will be closed at the end of the trading session.
📈 TAKE PROFIT CONDITIONS
There are several methods available for setting take profit exits and conditions.
1. Entry Condition TP
Users can use entry conditions as triggers for take-profit exits. This setting can be found under the long and short exit conditions.
2. Fixed TP
Users can set a fixed TP for exits. This setting can be found under the long and short exit conditions. Users can choose between the following:
Price: This method triggers a TP exit when price reaches a specified level. For example, if you set the Price TP to 10 and buy NASDAQ:TSLA at $190, the trade will automatically exit when the price reaches $200 ($190 + $10).
Ticks: This method triggers a TP exit when price moves a specified number of ticks.
Percentage (%): This method triggers a TP exit when price moves a specified percentage.
ATR: This method triggers a TP exit based on a specified multiple of the Average True Range (ATR).
📉 STOP LOSS CONDITIONS
There are several methods available for setting stop-loss exits and conditions.
1. Entry Condition SL
Users can use entry conditions as triggers for stop-loss exits. This setting can be found under the long and short exit conditions.
2. Fixed SL
Users can set a fixed SL for exits. This setting can be found under the long and short exit conditions. Users can choose between the following:
Price: This method triggers a SL exit when price reaches a specified level. For example, if you set the Price SL to 10 and buy NASDAQ:TSLA at $200, the trade will automatically exit when the price reaches $190 ($200 - $10).
Ticks: This method triggers a SL exit when price moves a specified number of ticks.
Percentage (%): This method triggers a SL exit when price moves a specified percentage.
ATR: This method triggers a SL exit based on a specified multiple of the Average True Range (ATR).
3. Trailing Stop
An explanation & example for the trailing stop feature is present on the write-up within the next section.
Exit conditions have the same logic of constructing conditions like the entry ones. You can construct a Take-Profit Condition & a Stop-Loss Condition. Note that the Take-Profit condition will only work if the position is in profit, regardless of if it's triggered or not. The same applies for the Stop-Loss condition, meaning that it will only work if the position is in loss.
You can also set a Fixed TP & Fixed SL based on the price movement after the position is entered. You have options like "Price", "Ticks", "%", or "Average True Range". For example, you can set a Fixed TP like "5%", and the position will be entered once it moves 5% up in a long position.
Trailing Stop
For the Fixed SL, you also have a "Trailing" stop option, for which you can set its activation level as well. The Trailing stop activation level and its value are expressed in ticks. Check this scenario for an example :
We have a ticker with a tick value of $1. Our Trailing Stop is set to 10 ticks, and the activation level is set to 30 ticks.
We buy 1 contract when the price is $100.
When the price becomes $110, we are in $10 (10 ticks) profit and the trailing stop is now activated.
The current price our stop's on is $110 - $30 (30 ticks), which is the level of $80.
The trailing stop will only move if the price moves up the highest high the price has been after we entered the position.
Let's suppose that price moves up $40 right after our trailing stop is activated. The price will now be $150, and our trailing stop will sit on $150 - $30 (30 ticks) = $120.
If the price is down the $120 level, our stop loss will be triggered.
There is also a "Hard SL" option designed for a backup stop-loss when trailing stops are enabled. You can enable & set this option and if the price goes down before our trailing stop even activates, the position will be exited.
You can also move stop-loss to the break-even (entry price of the position) after a certain profit is achieved using the last setting of the exit conditions. Note that for this to work, you must have a Fixed SL set-up.
➕ OTHER EXIT FEATURES
1. Move Stop Loss to Breakeven
This setting allows the strategy to automatically move the SL to Breakeven (BE) when the position is in profit by a certain amount. Users can choose between the following:
Price: This method moves the SL to BE when price reaches a specified level.
Ticks: This method moves the SL to BE when price moves a specified number of ticks.
Percentage (%): This method moves the SL to BE when price moves a specified percentage.
ATR: This method moves the SL to BE when price moves a specified multiple of the Average True Range (ATR).
Example Entry Scenario
To give an example , check this scenario; out conditions are :
LONG CONDITIONS
Demand Zone Detection, Step 1
Supply Zone Retest, Step 2
Demand Zone Break, Step 2
open > close, Step 3
First, the strategy needs to detect a Demand Zone Detection in order to start working.
After it's detected, now it's looking for either a Supply Zone Retest, or a Demand Zone Break to proceed to the next step, the reason for this is that they both have the same step number.
After one of them is detected, the strategy will consistently check candlesticks for the condition open > close. If a bullish candlestick occurs, a long position will be entered.
⏰ ALERTS
This indicator uses TradingView's strategy alert system. All entries and exits will be sent as an alert if configured. It's possible to further customize these alerts to your liking. For more information check TradingView's strategy alert customization page : www.tradingview.com
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. Backtesting Settings
Pyramiding: Controls the number of simultaneous trades allowed in the strategy. This setting must have the same value that is entered on the script's properties tab on the settings pane.
Enable Custom Backtesting Period: Restricts backtesting to a specific date range.
Start & End Time Configuration: Define precise start and end dates for historical analysis.
2. General Configuration
Detection Method: There are two detection methods you can choose from for identifying Supply & Demand Zones. Both methods aim to identify key areas where price is likely to react, but they do so using different approaches. Traders can choose the method that aligns with their trading style and time horizon.
Sensitivity: The Sensitivity setting allows traders to adjust how aggressively the script identifies supply and demand zones when using the Momentum Detection Method. This setting directly impacts the threshold for detecting zones when using the momentum detection method.
Zone Invalidation: The Zone Invalidation setting determines how supply and demand zones are invalidated.
Wick -> A zone is invalidated if a candle’s wick goes below a demand zone or above a supply zone.
Close -> A zone is invalidated if a candle closes below a demand zone or above a supply zone.
Zone Visibility Range: The Zone Visibility Range setting controls how far from the current price supply and demand zones are displayed on the chart. It helps traders focus on relevant zones while avoiding clutter from distant or less impactful areas.
Minimum Zone Width: The Minimum Zone Width setting defines the smallest size a supply or demand zone must have to be displayed on the chart. It uses the Average True Range (ATR) as a reference to ensure zones are proportionate to current market volatility.
Minimum Zone Length: The Minimum Zone Length setting determines the minimum number of bars a supply or demand zone must span to be displayed on the chart. This setting helps filter out short-lived or insignificant zones, ensuring only meaningful areas of supply or demand are highlighted.
3. Multi-Timeframe Analysis
Enable Up to Three Timeframes: Select and analyze trades across multiple timeframes.
4. Entry Conditions for Long & Short Trades
Multiple Conditions (1-6): Configure up to six independent conditions per trade direction.

📌 HOW DOES IT WORK?
The first setting you will want to set it the pyramiding setting. This setting controls the number of simultaneous trades in the same direction allowed in the strategy. For example, if you set it to 1, only one trade can be active in any time, and the second trade will not be entered unless the first one is exited. If it is set to 2, the script will handle both of them at the same time. Note that you should enter the same value to this pyramiding setting, and the pyramiding setting in the "Properties" tab of the script for this to work.
For deep backtesting, you can set "Max Distance To Last Bar" to "Unlimited". If you encounter any memory issues, try decreasing this setting to a lower value.
You can enable and set a backtesting window that will limit the entries to between the start date & end date.
Then, you can enter your desired settings to Price Action features like FVGs, IFVGs, Order Blocks, Breaker Blocks, Liquidity Grabs, Market Structures, EQH & EQL and Volume Imbalances. You can also enable and set up to 3 timeframes, which you can use later on when customizing your strategies enter / exit conditions.
Entry Conditions
From the "Long Conditions" or the "Short Conditions" groups, you can set your position entry conditions. For settings like "initial capital" or "order size", you can open the "Properties" tab, where these are handled.
The PAT Automation can use the following conditions for entry conditions :
1. Order Block (OB)
Detection: Triggered when an Order Block forms or is detected
Retest: Triggered when price retests an Order Block. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters an Order Block and closes outside of it.
Retracement: Triggered when price touches an Order Block
Break: Triggered when an Order Block is invalidated by candle close or wick, depending on the user's input.
2. Breaker Block (BB)
Detection: Triggered when a Breaker Block forms or is detected
Retest: Triggered when price retests a Breaker Block. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters a Breaker Block and closes outside of it.
Retracement: Triggered when price touches a Breaker Block
Break: Triggered when a Breaker Block is invalidated by candle close or wick, depending on the user's input.
3. Fair Value Gap (FVG)
Detection: Triggered when an FVG forms or is detected
Retest: Triggered when price retests an FVG. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters an FVG and closes outside of it.
Retracement: Triggered when price touches an FVG
Break: Triggered when an FVG is invalidated by candle close or wick, depending on the user's input.
4. Inversion Fair Value Gap (IFVG)
Detection: Triggered when an IFVG forms or is detected
Retest: Triggered when price retests an IFVG. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters an IFVG and closes outside of it.
Retracement: Triggered when price touches an IFVG
Break: Triggered when an IFVG is invalidated by candle close or wick, depending on the user's input.
5. Break of Structure (BOS)
Detection: Triggered when a BOS forms or is detected
6. Change of Character (CHoCH)
Detection: Triggered when a CHoCH forms or is detected
7. Change of Character Plus (CHoCH+)
Detection: Triggered when a CHoCH+ forms or is detected
8. Volume Imbalance (VI)
Detection: Triggered when a Volume Imbalance forms or is detected
9. Equal High (EQH)
Detection: Triggered when an EQH is detected
10. Equal Low (EQL)
Detection: Triggered when an EQL is detected
11. Buyside Liquidity Grab
Detection: Triggered when a liquidity grab occurs at Buyside Liquidity (BSL).
12. Sellside Liquidity Grab
Detection: Triggered when a liquidity grab occurs at Sellside Liquidity (SSL).
🕒 TIMEFRAME CONDITIONS
The PAT Automation supports Multi-Timeframe (MTF) features, just like the Price Action Toolkit. When setting an entry condition, you can also choose the timeframe.
To set up MTF conditions, navigate to the 'Timeframes' section in the settings, select your desired timeframes, and enable them. You can choose up to three timeframes.
Once you've selected your timeframes, you can use them in your strategy. When setting long and short entry / exit conditions, you can choose from Timeframe 1, Timeframe 2, or Timeframe 3.
External Conditions
Users can use external indicators on the chart to set entry conditions.
The second dropdown in the external condition settings allows you to choose a conditional operator to compare external outputs. Available options include:
Less Than or Equal To: <=
Less Than: <
Equal To: =
Greater Than: >
Greater Than or Equal To: >=
The position entry conditions work like this ;
Each side has 5 Price Action conditions and 1 Source condition. Each condition can be enabled or disabled using the checkbox on the left side.
For Price Action Conditions, you can set a direction: "Any", "Bullish" or "Bearish".
Then a Price Action Feature, like "FVG" or "Order Block".
The last part of our constructed condition is the alert type, which you can select between "Detection", "Retest", "Retracement" or "Break".
Now you should have a constructed condition, which should look like "Bullish Order Block Retest".
You can select which timeframe should this condition work on from Timeframe 1, 2 or 3. If you select "Any Timeframe", the condition will work for all timeframes.
Lastly select the step of this condition from 1 to 6.
The Source Condition
The last condition on each side is a source condition that is different from the others. Using this condition, you can create your own logic using other indicators' outputs on your chart. For example, suppose that you have an EMA indicator in your chart. You can have the source condition to something like "EMA > high".
The Step System
Each condition has a step number, and conditions are in topological order based on them.
The conditions are executed step by step. This means the condition with step 2 cannot be executed before the condition with step 1 is executed.
Conditions with the same step numbers have "OR" logic. This means that if you have 2 conditions with step 3, the condition with step 4 can trigger after only one of the step 3 conditions is executed.
➕ OTHER ENTRY FEATURES
The PAT Automation allows traders to choose when to execute trades and when not to execute trades.
1. Only Take Trades
This setting lets users specify the time period when their strategy can open or execute trades.
2. Don't Take Trades
This setting lets users specify time periods when their strategy can't open or execute trades.
↩️ EXIT CONDITIONS
1. Exit on Opposite Signal
When enabled, a long position will close when short entry conditions are met, and a short position will close when long entry conditions are met.
2. Exit on Session End
When enabled, positions will be closed at the end of the trading session.
📈 TAKE PROFIT CONDITIONS
There are several methods available for setting take profit exits and conditions.
1. Entry Condition TP
Users can use entry conditions as triggers for take-profit exits. This setting can be found under the long and short exit conditions.
2. Fixed TP
Users can set a fixed TP for exits. This setting can be found under the long and short exit conditions. Users can choose between the following:
Price: This method triggers a TP exit when price reaches a specified level. For example, if you set the Price TP to 10 and buy NASDAQ:TSLA at $190, the trade will automatically exit when the price reaches $200 ($190 + $10).
Ticks: This method triggers a TP exit when price moves a specified number of ticks.
Percentage (%): This method triggers a TP exit when price moves a specified percentage.
ATR: This method triggers a TP exit based on a specified multiple of the Average True Range (ATR).
📉 STOP LOSS CONDITIONS
There are several methods available for setting stop-loss exits and conditions.
1. Entry Condition SL
Users can use entry conditions as triggers for stop-loss exits. This setting can be found under the long and short exit conditions.
2. Fixed SL
Users can set a fixed SL for exits. This setting can be found under the long and short exit conditions. Users can choose between the following:
Price: This method triggers a SL exit when price reaches a specified level. For example, if you set the Price SL to 10 and buy NASDAQ:TSLA at $200, the trade will automatically exit when the price reaches $190 ($200 - $10).
Ticks: This method triggers a SL exit when price moves a specified number of ticks.
Percentage (%): This method triggers a SL exit when price moves a specified percentage.
ATR: This method triggers a SL exit based on a specified multiple of the Average True Range (ATR).
3. Trailing Stop
An explanation & example for the trailing stop feature is present on the write-up within the next section.
Exit conditions have the same logic of constructing conditions like the entry ones. You can construct a Take-Profit Condition & a Stop-Loss Condition. Note that the Take-Profit condition will only work if the position is in profit, regardless of if it's triggered or not. The same applies for the Stop-Loss condition, meaning that it will only work if the position is in loss.
You can also set a Fixed TP & Fixed SL based on the price movement after the position is entered. You have options like "Price", "Ticks", "%", or "Average True Range". For example, you can set a Fixed TP like "5%", and the position will be entered once it moves 5% up in a long position.
Trailing Stop
For the Fixed SL, you also have a "Trailing" stop option, which you can set it's activation level as well. The Trailing stop activation level and it's value are expressed in ticks. Check this scenerio for an example :
We have a ticker with a tick value of $1. Our Trailing Stop is set to 10 ticks and activation level is set to 30 ticks.
We buy 1 contract when the price is $100.
When the price becomes $110, we are in $10 (10 ticks) profit and the trailing stop is now activated.
The current price our stop's on is $110 - $30 (30 ticks), which is the level of $80.
The trailing stop will only move if the price moves up the highest high the price has been after we entered the position.
Let's suppose that price moves up $40 right after our trailing stop is activated. The price will now be $150, and our trailing stop will sit on $150 - $30 (30 ticks) = $120.
If the price is down the $120 level, our stop loss will be triggered.
There is also a "Hard SL" option designed for a backup stop-loss when trailing stops are enabled. You can enable & set this option and if the price goes down before our trailing stop even activates, the position will be exited.
You can also move stop-loss to the break-even (entry price of the position) after a certain profit is achieved using the last setting of the exit conditions. Note that for this to work, you will need to have a Fixed SL set-up.
➕ OTHER EXIT FEATURES
1. Move Stop Loss to Breakeven
This setting allows the strategy to automatically move the SL to Breakeven (BE) when the position is in profit by a certain amount. Users can choose between the following:
Price: This method moves the SL to BE when price reaches a specified level.
Ticks: This method moves the SL to BE when price moves a specified number of ticks.
Percentage (%): This method moves the SL to BE when price moves a specified percentage.
ATR: This method moves the SL to BE when price moves a specified multiple of the Average True Range (ATR).
Example Entry Scenario
To give an example , check this scenario; out conditions are :
LONG CONDITIONS
Bullish Order Block Detection, Step 1
Bullish CHoCH Detection, Step 2
Bullish Volume Imbalance Detection, Step 2
Bullish IFVG Retest, Step 3
First, the strategy needs to detect a Bullish Order Block in order to start working.
After it's detected, now it's looking for either a CHoCH, or a Volume Imbalance to proceed to the next step, the reason for this is that they both have the same step number.
After one of them is detected, the strategy will consistently check all IFVGs for a retest. If the retest occurs, a long position will be entered.

Pure Price Action Breakout with 1:5 RR
Description of the Price Action Trading Script (Pine Script v6)
Overview
This script is a pure price action-based breakout strategy designed for TradingView. It identifies key breakout levels and executes long and short trades based on market structure. The strategy ensures a minimum risk-to-reward ratio (RR) of 1:5, aiming for high profitability with well-defined stop-loss and take-profit levels.
How the Script Works
1️⃣ Breakout Identification
The script uses a lookback period to find the highest high and lowest low over the last n bars.
A bullish breakout occurs when the price closes above the previous highest high.
A bearish breakout happens when the price closes below the previous lowest low.
2️⃣ Entry & Exit Strategy
Long Entry: If a bullish breakout is detected, the script enters a long position.
Short Entry: If a bearish breakout is detected, the script enters a short position.
The stop-loss is placed at the recent swing low (for long trades) or recent swing high (for short trades).
The target price is calculated based on a risk-to-reward ratio of 1:5, ensuring profitable trades.
3️⃣ Risk Management
The stop-loss prevents excessive losses by exiting trades when the market moves unfavorably.
The strategy ensures that each trade has a reward potential at least 5 times the risk.
Positions are executed based on price action only, without indicators like moving averages or RSI.
4️⃣ Visual Representation
The script plots breakout levels to help traders visualize potential trade setups.
Entry points, stop-loss, and take-profit levels are labeled on the chart for easy tracking.
Key Features & Benefits
✔ Pure Price Action – No lagging indicators, only real-time price movements.
✔ High Risk-to-Reward Ratio (1:5) – Ensures high-profit potential trades.
✔ Real-time Entry & Exit Signals – Provides accurate trade setups.
✔ Dynamic Stop-loss Calculation – Adjusts based on recent market structure.
✔ Customizable Parameters – Lookback periods and risk ratios can be modified.

Moving Average Crossover StrategyCertainly! Below is an example of a professional trading strategy implemented in Pine Script for TradingView. This strategy is a simple moving average crossover strategy, which is a common approach used by many traders. It uses two moving averages (a short-term and a long-term) to generate buy and sell signals.
Input Parameters:
shortLength: The length of the short-term moving average.
longLength: The length of the long-term moving average.
Moving Averages:
shortMA: The short-term simple moving average (SMA).
longMA: The long-term simple moving average (SMA).
Conditions:
longCondition: A buy signal is generated when the short-term MA crosses above the long-term MA.
shortCondition: A sell signal is generated when the short-term MA crosses below the long-term MA.
Trade Execution:
The strategy enters a long position when the longCondition is met.
The strategy enters a short position when the shortCondition is met.
Plotting:
The moving averages are plotted on the chart.
Buy and sell signals are plotted as labels on the chart.
How to Use:
Copy the script into TradingView's Pine Script editor.
Adjust the shortLength and longLength parameters to fit your trading style.
Add the script to your chart and apply it to your desired timeframe.
Backtest the strategy to see how it performs on historical data.
This is a basic example, and professional traders often enhance such strategies with additional filters, risk management rules, and other indicators to improve performance.
Bollinger Bounce Reversal Strategy – Visual EditionOverview:
The Bollinger Bounce Reversal Strategy – Visual Edition is designed to capture potential reversal moves at price extremes—often termed “bounce points”—by using a combination of technical indicators. The strategy integrates Bollinger Bands, MACD, and volume analysis, and it provides rich on‑chart visual cues to help traders understand its signals and conditions. Additionally, the strategy enforces a maximum of 5 trades per day and uses fixed risk management parameters. This publication is intended for educational purposes and offers a systematic, transparent approach that you can further adjust to fit your market or risk profile.
How It Works:
Bollinger Bands:
A 20‑period simple moving average (SMA) and a user‑defined standard deviation multiplier (default 2.0) are used to calculate the Bollinger Bands.
When the price reaches or crosses these bands (i.e. falls below the lower band or rises above the upper band), it suggests that the price is in an extreme, potentially oversold or overbought, state.
MACD Filter:
The MACD (calculated with standard lengths, e.g. 12, 26, 9) provides momentum information.
For a bullish (long) signal, the MACD line should be above its signal line; for a bearish (short) signal, the MACD line should be below.
Volume Confirmation:
The strategy uses a 20‑period volume moving average to determine if current volume is strong enough to validate a signal.
A signal is confirmed only if the current volume is at or above a specified multiple (by default, 1.0×) of this moving average, ensuring that the move is supported by increased market participation.
Visual Cues:
Bollinger Bands and Fill: The basis (SMA), upper, and lower Bollinger Bands are plotted, and the area between the upper and lower bands is filled with a semi‑transparent color.
Signal Markers: When a long or short signal is generated, corresponding markers (labels) appear on the chart.
Background Coloring: The chart’s background changes color (green for long signals and red for short signals) on the bars where signals occur.
Information Table: An on‑chart table displays key indicator values (MACD, signal line, volume, average volume) and the number of trades executed that day.
Entry Conditions:
Long Entry:
A long trade is triggered when the previous bar’s close is below the lower Bollinger Band and the current bar’s close crosses above it, combined with a bullish MACD condition and strong volume.
Short Entry:
A short trade is triggered when the previous bar’s close is above the upper Bollinger Band and the current bar’s close crosses below it, with a bearish MACD condition and high volume.
Risk Management:
Daily Trade Limit: The strategy restricts trading to no more than 5 trades per day.
Stop-Loss and Take-Profit:
For each position, a stop loss is set at a fixed percentage away from the entry price (typically 2%), and a take profit is set to target a 1:2 risk-reward ratio (typically 4% from the entry price).
Backtesting Setup:
Initial Capital: $10,000
Commission: 0.1% per trade
Slippage: 1 tick per bar
These realistic parameters help ensure that backtesting results reflect the conditions of an average trader.
Disclaimer:
Past performance is not indicative of future results. This strategy is experimental and provided solely for educational purposes. It is essential to backtest extensively and paper trade before any live deployment. All risk management practices are advisory, and you should adjust parameters to suit your own trading style and risk tolerance.
Conclusion:
By combining Bollinger Bands, MACD, and volume analysis, the Bollinger Bounce Reversal Strategy – Visual Edition provides a clear, systematic method to identify potential reversal opportunities at price extremes. The added visual cues help traders quickly interpret signals and assess market conditions, while strict risk management and a daily trade cap help keep trading disciplined. Adjust and refine the settings as needed to better suit your specific market and risk profile.
The 950 Bar StrategyNQ 9:50 AM Candle Strategy v3 (Trade at 9:55AM) - 1 Contract
Also called the 950 Standard. The 950 Strategy.
This strategy places its trade at 9:55am each day based on the close of the 9:50am candle. Uses 5min timeframe candles. If candle closes red, or bearish, the strategy goes short. If candle closes green, or bullish, the strategy goes long. Brackets are 150tick TP and 200tick SL.
Ultimate T3 Fibonacci for BTC Scalping. Look at backtest report!Hey Everyone!
I created another script to add to my growing library of strategies and indicators that I use for automated crypto trading! This strategy is for BITCOIN on the 30 minute chart since I designed it to be a scalping strategy. I calculated for trading fees, and use a small amount of capital in the backtest report. But feel free to modify the capital and how much per order to see how it changes the results:)
It is called the "Ultimate T3 Fibonacci Indicator by NHBprod" that computes and displays two T3-based moving averages derived from price data. The t3_function calculates the Tilson T3 indicator by applying a series of exponential moving averages to a combined price metric and then blending these results with specific coefficients derived from an input factor.
The script accepts several user inputs that toggle the use of the T3 filter, select the buy signal method, and set parameters like lengths and volume factors for two variations of the T3 calculation. Two T3 lines, T3 and T32, are computed with different parameters, and their colors change dynamically (green/red for T3 and blue/purple for T32) based on whether the lines are trending upward or downward. Depending on the selected signal method, the script generates buy signals either when T32 crosses over T3 or when the closing price is above T3, and similarly, sell signals are generated on the respective conditions for crossing under or closing below. Finally, the indicator plots the T3 lines on the chart, adds visual buy/sell markers, and sets alert conditions to notify users when the respective trading signals occur.
The user has the ability to tune the parameters using TP/SL, date timerames for analyses, and the actual parameters of the T3 function including the buy/sell signal! Lastly, the user has the option of trading this long, short, or both!
Let me know your thoughts and check out the backtest report!

The strategy computes the highest high and lowest low over a defined lookback period (excluding the current bar to avoid look-ahead bias). A multiple of the Average True Range (ATR) is then added to (or subtracted from) these levels to form dynamic breakout thresholds.
• Purpose:
This method helps capture significant price movements (breakouts) while ensuring that only past data is used, thereby maintaining realistic signal generation.
2. Trend Filtering:
• Methodology:
A short-term Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is applied to determine the prevailing trend.
• Purpose:
Long trades are considered only when the current price is above the EMA, indicating an uptrend, while short trades are taken only when the price is below the EMA, indicating a downtrend.
3. Momentum Confirmation:
• Methodology:
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is used to gauge market momentum.
• Purpose:
For long entries, the RSI must be above a mid-level (e.g., above 50) to confirm upward momentum, and for short entries, it must be below a similar threshold. This helps filter out signals during overextended conditions.
Entry Conditions:
• Long Entry:
A long position is triggered when the current closing price exceeds the calculated long breakout level, the price is above the short-term EMA, and the RSI confirms momentum (e.g., above 50).
• Short Entry:
A short position is triggered when the closing price falls below the calculated short breakout level, the price is below the EMA, and the RSI confirms momentum (e.g., below 50).
Risk Management:
• Position Sizing:
Trades are sized to risk a fixed percentage of account equity (set here to 5% per trade in the code, with each trade’s stop loss defined so that risk is limited to approximately 2% of the entry price).
• Stop Loss & Take Profit:
A stop loss is placed a fixed ATR multiple away from the entry price, and a take profit target is set to achieve a 1:2 risk-reward ratio.
• Realistic Backtesting:
The strategy is backtested using an initial capital of $10,000, with a commission of 0.1% per trade and slippage of 1 tick per bar—parameters chosen to reflect conditions faced by the average trader.
Important Disclaimers:
• No Look-Ahead Bias:
All breakout levels are calculated using only past data (excluding the current bar) to ensure that the strategy does not “peek” into future data.
• Educational Purpose:
This strategy is experimental and provided solely for educational purposes. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
• User Responsibility:
Traders should thoroughly backtest and paper trade the strategy under various market conditions and adjust parameters to fit their own risk tolerance and trading style before live deployment.
Conclusion:
By integrating volatility-based breakout signals with trend and momentum filters, the Volatility Momentum Breakout Strategy offers a unique method to capture significant price moves in a disciplined manner. This publication provides a transparent explanation of the strategy’s components and realistic backtesting parameters, making it a useful tool for educational purposes and further customization by the TradingView community.
Advanced Multi-Timeframe Trading System (Risk Managed)Description:
This strategy is an original approach that combines two main analytical components to identify potential trade opportunities while simulating realistic trading conditions:
1. Market Trend Analysis via an Approximate Hurst Exponent
• What It Does:
The strategy computes a rough measure of market trending using an approximate Hurst exponent. A value above 0.5 suggests persistent, trending behavior, while a value below 0.5 indicates a tendency toward mean-reversion.
• How It’s Used:
The Hurst exponent is calculated on both the chart’s current timeframe and a higher timeframe (default: Daily) to capture both local and broader market dynamics.
2. Fibonacci Retracement Levels
• What It Does:
Using daily high and low data from a selected timeframe (default: Daily), the script computes key Fibonacci retracement levels.
• How It’s Used:
• The 61.8% level (Golden Ratio) serves as a key threshold:
• A long entry is signaled when the price crosses above this level if the daily Hurst exponent confirms a trending market.
• The 38.2% level is used to identify short-entry opportunities when the price crosses below it and the daily Hurst indicates non-trending conditions.
Signal Logic:
• Long Entry:
When the price crosses above the 61.8% Fibonacci level (Golden Ratio) and the daily Hurst exponent is greater than 0.5, suggesting a trending market.
• Short Entry:
When the price crosses below the 38.2% Fibonacci level and the daily Hurst exponent is less than 0.5, indicating a less trending or potentially reversing market.
Risk Management & Trade Execution:
• Stop-Loss:
Each trade is risk-managed with a stop-loss set at 2% below (for longs) or above (for shorts) the entry price. This ensures that no single trade risks more than a small, sustainable portion of the account.
• Take Profit:
A take profit order targets a risk-reward ratio of 1:2 (i.e., the target profit is twice the amount risked).
• Position Sizing:
Trades are executed with a fixed position size equal to 10% of account equity.
• Trade Frequency Limits:
• Daily Limit: A maximum of 5 trades per day
• Overall Limit: No more than 510 trades during the backtesting period (e.g., since 2019)
These limits are imposed to simulate realistic trading frequency and to avoid overtrading in backtest results.
Backtesting Parameters:
• Initial Capital: $10,000
• Commission: 0.1% per trade
• Slippage: 1 tick per bar
These settings aim to reflect the conditions faced by the average trader and help ensure that the backtesting results are realistic and not misleading.
Chart Overlays & Visual Aids:
• Fibonacci Levels:
The key Fibonacci retracement levels are plotted on the chart, and the zone between the 61.8% and 38.2% levels is highlighted to show a key retracement area.
• Market Trend Background:
The chart background is tinted green when the daily Hurst exponent indicates a trending market (value > 0.5) and red otherwise.
• Information Table:
An on-chart table displays key parameters such as the current Hurst exponent, daily Hurst value, the number of trades executed today, and the global trade count.
Disclaimer:
Past performance is not indicative of future results. This strategy is experimental and provided solely for educational purposes. It is essential that you backtest and paper trade using your own settings before considering any live deployment. The Hurst exponent calculation is an approximation and should be interpreted as a rough gauge of market behavior. Adjust the parameters and risk management settings according to your personal risk tolerance and market conditions.
Additional Notes:
• Originality & Usefulness:
This script is an original mashup that combines trend analysis with Fibonacci retracement methods. The description above explains how these components work together to provide trading signals.
• Realistic Results:
The strategy uses realistic account sizes, commission rates, slippage, and risk management rules to generate backtesting results that are representative of real-world trading.
• Educational Purpose:
This script is intended to support the TradingView community by offering insights into combining multiple analysis techniques in one strategy. It is not a “get-rich-quick” system but rather an educational tool to help traders understand risk management and trade signal logic.
By using this script, you acknowledge that trading involves risk and that you are responsible for testing and adjusting the strategy to fit your own trading environment. This publication is fully open source, and any modifications should include proper attribution if significant portions of the code are reused.
SMA + RSI + Volume + ATR StrategySMA + RSI + Volume + ATR Strategy
1. Indicators Used:
SMA (Simple Moving Average): This is a trend-following indicator that calculates the average price of a security over a specified period (50 periods in this case). It's used to identify the overall trend of the market.
RSI (Relative Strength Index): This measures the speed and change of price movements. It tells us if the market is overbought (too high) or oversold (too low). Overbought is above 70 and oversold is below 30.
Volume: This is the amount of trading activity. A higher volume often indicates strong interest in a particular price move.
ATR (Average True Range): This measures volatility, or how much the price is moving in a given period. It helps us adjust stop losses and take profits based on market volatility.
2. Conditions for Entering Trades:
Buy Signal (Green Up Arrow):
Price is above the 50-period SMA (indicating an uptrend).
RSI is below 30 (indicating the market might be oversold or undervalued, signaling a potential reversal).
Current volume is higher than average volume (indicating strong interest in the move).
ATR is increasing (indicating higher volatility, suggesting that the market might be ready for a move).
Sell Signal (Red Down Arrow):
Price is below the 50-period SMA (indicating a downtrend).
RSI is above 70 (indicating the market might be overbought or overvalued, signaling a potential reversal).
Current volume is higher than average volume (indicating strong interest in the move).
ATR is increasing (indicating higher volatility, suggesting that the market might be ready for a move).
3. Take Profit & Stop Loss:
Take Profit: When a trade is made, the strategy will set a target price at a certain percentage above or below the entry price (1.5% in this case) to automatically exit the trade once that target is hit.
Stop Loss: If the price goes against the position, a stop loss is set at a percentage below or above the entry price (0.5% in this case) to limit losses.
4. Execution of Trades:
When the buy condition is met, the strategy will enter a long position (buying).
When the sell condition is met, the strategy will enter a short position (selling).
5. Visual Representation:
Green Up Arrow: Appears on the chart when the buy condition is met.
Red Down Arrow: Appears on the chart when the sell condition is met.
These arrows help you see at a glance when the strategy suggests you should buy or sell.
In Summary:
This strategy uses a combination of trend-following (SMA), momentum (RSI), volume, and volatility (ATR) to decide when to buy or sell a stock. It looks for opportunities when the market is either oversold (buy signal) or overbought (sell signal) and makes sure there’s enough volume and volatility to back up the move. It also includes take-profit and stop-loss levels to manage risk.
MA Crossover with Demand/Supply Zones + Stop Loss/Take ProfitStop Loss and Take Profit Inputs:
Added stopLossPerc and takeProfitPerc as inputs to allow the user to define the stop loss and take profit levels as a percentage of the entry price.
Stop Loss and Take Profit Calculation:
For long positions, the stop loss is calculated as strategy.position_avg_price * (1 - stopLossPerc), and the take profit is calculated as strategy.position_avg_price * (1 + takeProfitPerc).
For short positions, the stop loss is calculated as strategy.position_avg_price * (1 + stopLossPerc), and the take profit is calculated as strategy.position_avg_price * (1 - takeProfitPerc).
Exit Strategy:
Added strategy.exit to define the stop loss and take profit levels for each trade. The from_entry parameter ensures that the exit is tied to the specific entry order.
Flexibility:
The stop loss and take profit levels are dynamic and adjust based on the entry price of the trade.
How It Works:
When a buy signal is generated (MA crossover near a demand zone), the strategy enters a long position and sets a stop loss and take profit level based on the input percentages.
When a sell signal is generated (MA crossunder near a supply zone), the strategy enters a short position and sets a stop loss and take profit level based on the input percentages.
The trade will exit automatically if either the stop loss or take profit level is hit.
Example:
If the entry price for a long position is $100, and the stop loss is set to 1% while the take profit is set to 2%:
Stop loss level =
100
∗
(
1
−
0.01
)
=
100∗(1−0.01)=99
Take profit level =
100
∗
(
1
+
0.02
)
=
100∗(1+0.02)=102
Notes:
You can adjust the stopLossPerc and takeProfitPerc inputs to suit your risk management preferences.
Always backtest the strategy to ensure the stop loss and take profit levels are appropriate for your trading instrument and timeframe.
BuyTheDips Trade on Trend and Fixed TP/SL
This strategy is designed to trade in the direction of the trend using exponential moving average (EMA) crossovers as signals while employing fixed percentages for take profit (TP) and stop loss (SL) to manage risk and reward. It is suitable for both scalping and swing trading on any timeframe, with its default settings optimized for short-term price movements.
How It Works
EMA Crossovers:
The strategy uses two EMAs: a fast EMA (shorter period) and a slow EMA (longer period).
A buy signal is triggered when the fast EMA crosses above the slow EMA, indicating a potential bullish trend.
A sell signal is triggered when the fast EMA crosses below the slow EMA, signaling a bearish trend.
Trend Filtering:
To improve signal reliability, the strategy only takes trades in the direction of the overall trend:
Long trades are executed only when the fast EMA is above the slow EMA (bullish trend).
Short trades are executed only when the fast EMA is below the slow EMA (bearish trend).
This filtering ensures trades are aligned with the prevailing market direction, reducing false signals.
Risk Management (Fixed TP/SL):
The strategy uses fixed percentages for take profit and stop loss:
Take Profit: A percentage above the entry price for long trades (or below for short trades).
Stop Loss: A percentage below the entry price for long trades (or above for short trades).
These percentages can be customized to balance risk and reward according to your trading style.
For example:
If the take profit is set to 2% and the stop loss to 1%, the strategy operates with a 2:1 risk-reward ratio. BINANCE:BTCUSDT
Bearish Wick Reversal█ STRATEGY OVERVIEW
The "Bearish Wick Reversal Strategy" identifies potential bullish reversals following significant bearish price rejection (long lower wicks). This counter-trend approach enters long positions when bearish candles show exaggerated downside wicks relative to closing prices, then exits on bullish confirmation signals. Includes optional EMA trend filtering for improved reliability.
█ What is a Bearish Wick?
A price rejection pattern where:
Bearish candle (close < open) forms with extended lower wick
Wick represents failed selloff: Low drops significantly below close
Measured as: (Low - Close)/Close × 100 (Negative percentage indicates downward extension)
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. LONG ENTRY CONDITION
Bearish candle forms with close < open
Lower wick exceeds user-defined threshold (Default: -1% of close price)
The signal occurs within the specified time window
If enabled, the close price must also be above the 200-period EMA (Exponential Moving Average)
2. EXIT CONDITION
A Sell Signal is generated when the current closing price exceeds the highest high of the previous seven bars (`close > _highest `). This indicates that the price has shown strength, potentially confirming the reversal and prompting the strategy to exit the position.
█ PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
Ideal Market: Volatile instruments with frequent price rejections
Key Risk: False signals in sustained bearish trends
Optimization Tip: Test various thresholds
Filter Impact: EMA reduces trades but improves win rate and reduces drawdown
