Turtles StrategyBorn from the 1980s "Turtle" experiment, this method of trading captures breakouts and places or closes trades with intrabar entries or exits and realized-equity risk controls.
How It Works
The strategy buys/sells on breakouts from recent highs/lows, using ATR for volatility-adjusted stops and sizing. It risks a fixed % (default 1%) of realized equity per trade—initial capital plus closed P&L, ignoring open positions for conservatism. Drawdown protection auto-reduces risk by 20% at 10% drops (up to three times), resetting only on full peak recovery. Single positions only, with 1-tick slippage simulated for realistic fills. Best for trending assets like forex,commodities, crypto, stocks. Backtest for optimal parameters.
Main Operations
The strategy works on any timeframe but it's meant to be used on daily charts.
Entry Signals:
Long: Buy-stop 1 tick above 20-bar high (default "Entry Period") when no position—enters intrabar on breakout.
Short: Sell-stop 1 tick below 20-bar low. OCA cancels opposites.
Size: (Realized equity × adjusted risk %) ÷ (2× ATR stop distance), scaled by point value.
Exit Signals:
Longs: Stop at tighter of (entry - 2× ATR) or (10-bar low - 1 tick trailing, default "Exit Period").
Shorts: Stop at tighter of (entry + 2× ATR) or (10-bar high + 1 tick trailing).
Locks profits in trends, exits fast on fades.
Risk Controls:
Tracks realized equity peak.
10% drawdown: Risk ×0.8; 20%/30%: Further ×0.8 (max 3x).
Full reset above peak—preserves capital in slumps.

The Best Strategy Template[LuciTech]Hello Traders,
This is a powerful and flexible strategy template designed to help you create, backtest, and deploy your own custom trading strategies. This template is not a ready-to-use strategy but a framework that simplifies the development process by providing a wide range of pre-built features and functionalities.
What It Does
The LuciTech Strategy Template provides a robust foundation for building your own automated trading strategies. It includes a comprehensive set of features that are essential for any serious trading strategy, allowing you to focus on your unique trading logic without having to code everything from scratch.
Key Features
The LuciTech Strategy Template integrates several powerful features to enhance your strategy development:
•
Advanced Risk Management: This includes robust controls for defining your Risk Percentage per Trade, setting a precise Risk-to-Reward Ratio, and implementing an intelligent Breakeven Stop-Loss mechanism that automatically adjusts your stop to the entry price once a specified profit threshold is reached. These elements are crucial for capital preservation and consistent profitability.
•
Flexible Stop-Loss Options: The template offers adaptable stop-loss calculation methods, allowing you to choose between ATR-Based Stop-Loss, which dynamically adjusts to market volatility, and Candle-Based Stop-Loss, which uses structural price points from previous candles. This flexibility ensures the stop-loss strategy aligns with diverse trading styles.
•
Time-Based Filtering: Optimize your strategy's performance by restricting trading activity to specific hours of the day. This feature allows you to avoid unfavorable market conditions or focus on periods of higher liquidity and volatility relevant to your strategy.
•
Customizable Webhook Alerts: Stay informed with advanced notification capabilities. The template supports sending detailed webhook alerts in various JSON formats (Standard, Telegram, Concise Telegram) to external platforms, facilitating real-time monitoring and potential integration with automated trading systems.
•
Comprehensive Visual Customization: Enhance your analytical clarity with extensive visual options. You can customize the colors of entry, stop-loss, and take-profit lines, and effectively visualize market inefficiencies by displaying and customizing Fair Value Gap (FVG) boxes directly on your chart.
How It Does It
The LuciTech Strategy Template is meticulously crafted using Pine Script, TradingView's powerful and expressive programming language. The underlying architecture is designed for clarity and modularity, allowing for straightforward integration of your unique trading signals. At its core, the template operates by taking user-defined entry and exit conditions and then applying a sophisticated layer of risk management, position sizing, and trade execution logic.
For instance, when a longCondition or shortCondition is met, the template dynamically calculates the appropriate position size. This calculation is based on your specified risk_percent of equity and the stop_distance (the distance between your entry price and the calculated stop-loss level). This ensures that each trade adheres to your predefined risk parameters, a critical component of disciplined trading.
The flexibility in stop-loss calculation is achieved through a switch statement that evaluates the sl_type input. Whether you choose an ATR-based stop, which adapts to market volatility, or a candle-based stop, which uses structural price points, the template seamlessly integrates these methods. The ATR calculation itself is further refined by allowing various smoothing methods (RMA, SMA, EMA, WMA), providing granular control over how volatility is measured.
Time-based filtering is implemented by comparing the current bar's time with user-defined start_hour, start_minute, end_hour, and end_minute inputs. This allows the strategy to activate or deactivate trading during specific market sessions or periods of the day, a valuable tool for optimizing performance and avoiding unfavorable conditions.
Furthermore, the template incorporates advanced webhook alert functionality. When a trade is executed, a customizable JSON message is formatted based on your webhook_format selection (Standard, Telegram, or Concise Telegram) and sent via alert function. This enables seamless integration with external services for real-time notifications or even automated trade execution through third-party platforms.
Visual feedback is paramount for understanding strategy behavior. The template utilizes plot and fill functions to clearly display entry prices, stop-loss levels, and take-profit targets directly on the chart. Customizable colors for these elements, along with dedicated options for Fair Value Gap (FVG) boxes, enhance the visual analysis during backtesting and live trading, making it easier to interpret the strategy's actions.
How It's Original
The LuciTech Strategy Template distinguishes itself in the crowded landscape of TradingView scripts through its unique combination of integrated, advanced risk management features, highly flexible stop-loss methodologies, and sophisticated alerting capabilities, all within a user-friendly and modular framework. While many templates offer basic entry/exit signal integration, LuciTech goes several steps further by providing a robust, ready-to-use infrastructure for managing the entire trade lifecycle once a signal is generated.
Unlike templates that might require users to piece together various risk management components or code complex stop-loss logic from scratch, LuciTech offers these critical functionalities out-of-the-box. The inclusion of dynamic position sizing based on a user-defined risk percentage, a configurable risk-to-reward ratio, and an intelligent breakeven mechanism significantly elevates its utility. This comprehensive approach to capital preservation and profit targeting is a cornerstone of professional trading and is often overlooked or simplified in generic templates.
Furthermore, the template's provision for multiple stop-loss calculation types—ATR-based for volatility adaptation, and candle-based for structural support/resistance—demonstrates a deep understanding of diverse trading strategies. The underlying code for these calculations is already implemented, saving developers considerable time and effort. The subtle yet powerful inclusion of FVG (Fair Value Gap) related inputs also hints at advanced price action concepts, offering a sophisticated layer of analysis and execution that is not commonly found in general-purpose templates.
The advanced webhook alerting system, with its support for various JSON formats tailored for platforms like Telegram, showcases an originality in catering to the needs of modern, automated trading setups. This moves beyond simple TradingView pop-up alerts, enabling seamless integration with external systems for real-time trade monitoring and execution. This level of external connectivity and customizable data output is a significant differentiator.
In essence, the LuciTech Strategy Template is original not just in its individual features, but in how these features are cohesively integrated to form a powerful, opinionated, yet highly adaptable system. It empowers traders to focus their creative energy on developing their core entry/exit signals, confident that the underlying framework will handle the complexities of risk management, trade execution, and external communication with precision and flexibility. It's a comprehensive solution designed to accelerate the development of robust and professional trading strategies.
How to Modify the Logic to Apply Your Strategy
The LuciTech Strategy Template is designed with modularity in mind, making it exceptionally straightforward to integrate your unique trading strategy logic. The template provides a clear separation between the core strategy management (risk, position sizing, exits) and the entry signal generation. This allows you to easily plug in your own buy and sell conditions without altering the robust underlying framework.
Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to adapt the template to your specific trading strategy:
1.
Locate the Strategy Logic Section:
Open the Pine Script editor in TradingView and navigate to the section clearly marked with the comment //Strategy Logic Example:. This is where the template’s placeholder entry conditions (a simple moving average crossover) are defined.
2.
Define Your Custom Entry Conditions:
Within this section, you will find variables such as longCondition and shortCondition. These are boolean variables that determine when a long or short trade should be initiated. Replace the existing example logic with your own custom buy and sell conditions. Your conditions can be based on any combination of indicators, price action patterns, candlestick formations, or other market analysis techniques. For example, if your strategy involves a combination of RSI and MACD, you would define longCondition as (rsi > 50 and macd_line > signal_line) and shortCondition as (rsi < 50 and macd_line < signal_line).
3.
Leverage the Template’s Built-in Features:
Once your longCondition and shortCondition are defined, the rest of the template automatically takes over. The integrated risk management module will calculate the appropriate position size based on your Risk % input and the chosen Stop Loss Type. The Risk:Reward ratio will determine your take-profit levels, and the Breakeven at R feature will manage your stop-loss dynamically. The time filter (Use Time Filter) will ensure your trades only occur within your specified hours, and the webhook alerts will notify you of trade executions.
MACD Volume Strategy (BBO + MACD State, Reversal Type)Overview

Octopus Nest Strategy Hello Fellas,
Hereby, I come up with a popular strategy from YouTube called Octopus Nest Strategy. It is a no repaint, lower timeframe scalping strategy utilizing PSAR, EMA and TTM Squeeze.
The strategy considers these market factors:
PSAR -> Trend
EMA -> Trend
TTM Squeeze -> Momentum and Volatility by incorporating Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels
Note: As you can see there is a potential improvement by incorporating volume.
What's Different Compared To The Original Strategy?
I added an option which allows users to use the Adaptive PSAR of @loxx, which will hopefully improve results sometimes.
Signals
Enter Long -> source above EMA 100, source crosses above PSAR and TTM Squeeze crosses above 0
Enter Short -> source below EMA 100, source crosses below PSAR and TTM Squeeze crosses below 0
Exit Long and Exit Short are triggered from the risk management. Thus, it will just exit on SL or TP.
Risk Management
"High Low Stop Loss" and "Automatic High Low Take Profit" are used here.
High Low Stop Loss: Utilizes the last high for short and the last low for long to calculate the stop loss level. The last high or low gets multiplied by the user-defined multiplicator and if no recent high or low was found it uses the backup multiplier.
Automatic High Low Take Profit: Utilizes the current stop loss level of "High Low Stop Loss" and gets calculated by the user-defined risk ratio.
Now, follows the bunch of knowledge for the more inexperienced readers.
PSAR: Parabolic Stop And Reverse; Developed by J. Welles Wilders and a classic trend reversal indicator.
The indicator works most effectively in trending markets where large price moves allow traders to capture significant gains. When a security’s price is range-bound, the indicator will constantly be reversing, resulting in multiple low-profit or losing trades.
TTM Squeeze: TTM Squeeze is a volatility and momentum indicator introduced by John Carter of Trade the Markets (now Simpler Trading), which capitalizes on the tendency for price to break out strongly after consolidating in a tight trading range.
The volatility component of the TTM Squeeze indicator measures price compression using Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels. If the Bollinger Bands are completely enclosed within the Keltner Channels, that indicates a period of very low volatility. This state is known as the squeeze. When the Bollinger Bands expand and move back outside of the Keltner Channel, the squeeze is said to have “fired”: volatility increases and prices are likely to break out of that tight trading range in one direction or the other. The on/off state of the squeeze is shown with small dots on the zero line of the indicator: red dots indicate the squeeze is on, and green dots indicate the squeeze is off.
EMA: Exponential Moving Average; Like a simple moving average, but with exponential weighting of the input data.
Don't forget to check out the settings and keep it up.
Best regards,
simwai

Strategy Template + Performance & Returns table + ExtrasA script I've been working on since summer 2022. A template for any strategy so you just have to write or paste the code and go straight into risk management settings
Features:
>Signal only Longs/only Shorts/Both
>Leverage system
>Proper fees calculation (even with leverage on)
>Different Stop Loss systems: Simple percentage, 4 different "move to Break Even" systems and Scaling SL after each TP order (read the disclaimer at the bottom regarding this and the TV % profitable metric)
>2 Take Profit systems: Simple percentages, or Risk/reward ratios based on SL level
>Additional option on TP so last one "rides free" until closure of position or Stoploss is hit (for more than 1 orders)
>Up to 5 TP orders
>Show or hide SL/TP levels on demand
>2 date filters. Manual filter is nothing new, enter two dates/hours and filter will turn on. BUT automatic filter is another thing (thanks to user @bfr_ for his help in codingthis feature)
>AUTOMATIC DATE FILTER. Allows you to split all historical data on the chart in X periods, then choose the range of periods used. Up to 10 but that can be changed, instructions included. Useful for WalkForward simulations, haven't seen a script in TradingView that allows you to do this and test your strategy on "unseen data" automatically
EXTRA SETTINGS
Besides, some additions I like to add to my codes:
>Returns table for monthly and weekly performance. Requires recalculation on every tick. This is a modified version of @QuantNomad's work. May add lower TF options later on
>Volume Based S/R system. Original work from @shtcoinr
>One feature that was made by me, the "portfolio table". Yields info and metrics of your strategy, current position and balance. You're able to turn it off and change its size
Should anyone find an error, or have any idea on how to improve this code, please contact me. Future updates could come, stay tuned
DISCLAIMER:
In order to have accurate StopLoss hit, I had to change the previous system, which was a "close position on candle close" instead at actual stoploss level. It was fixed, but resulted on inflation of the number of trading orders, thus reducing the percent profitable and making it strongly biased and unreal. Keep that in mind, that "real" profitability could be 2x or 3x the metric TradingView says. If your strategy has a really high trading frequency, resulting in 3000+ orders, might be a problem. Try to make use of the automatic/manual date filter as workaround, I have no means of changing this, seems it is not a bug but an intended design of the PineScript Code
PSAR BBPT ZLSMA BTC 1minLong entry:
PSAR gives buy signal
BBPT prints green histogram
ZLSMA is below the price
ZLSMA has uptrend
SL is smaller than the max SL
Optional Sessions and EMA filters
Short entry
PSAR gives sell signal
BBPT prints red histogram
ZLSMA is above the price
ZLSMA has downtrend
SL is smaller than the max SL
Optional Sessions and EMA filters
SL:
Placed below ZLSMA + offset on long
Placed above ZLSMA + offset on short
TP1:
1x the SL by default
Takes no profit by default, 50% is also a good setting
TP2:
2x the SL by default
Take out all remaining position size.
If price reaches TP1, the SL is set to the entry price.
[fpemehd] Strategy TemplateHello Guys! Nice to meet you all!
This is my fourth script!
This is the Strategy Template for traders who wants to make their own strategy.
I made this based on the open source strategies by jason5480, kevinmck100, myncrypto. Thank you All!
### StopLoss
1. Can Choose Stop Loss Type: Percent, ATR, Previous Low / High.
2. Can Chosse inputs of each Stop Loss Type.
### Take Profit
1. Can set Risk Reward Ratio for Take Profit.
- To simplify backtest, I erased all other options except RR Ratio.
- You can add Take Profit Logic by adding options in the code.
2. Can set Take Profit Quantity.
### Risk Manangement
1. Can choose whether to use Risk Manangement Logic.
- This controls the Quantity of the Entry.
- e.g. If you want to take 3% risk per trade and stop loss price is 6% below the long entry price,
then 50% of your equity will be used for trade.
2. Can choose How much risk you would take per trade.
### Plot
1. Added Labels to check the data of entry / exit positions.
2. Changed and Added color different from the original one. (green: #02732A, red: #D92332, yellow: #F2E313)

Full strategy AllinOne with risk management MACD RSI PSAR ATR MAHey, I am glad to present you one of the strategies where I put a lot of time in it.
This strategy can be adapted to all type of timecharts like scalping, daytrading or swing.
The context is the next one :
First we have the ATR to calculate our TP/SL points. At the same time we have another rule once we enter(we enter based on % risk from total equity, in this example 1%, at the same time, lowest ammount for this example is 0.1 lots, but can be modified to 0.01), so we can exit both by tp/sl points, or by losing 1% of our equity or winning 1% of our total equity. It's dinamic.
The strategy is made from
Trend direction :
PSAR
First confirmation point :
Crossover between 10EMA and Bollinger bands middle point
Second confirmation
MACD histogram
Third confirmation
RSI overbought/oversold levels
For entries : we check trend with psar, then once ema cross bb middle point, we confirm together with rsi level for overbought/oversold and macd histogram ( > 0 or <0).
We exit, when we have opposite sign, like from buy to sell or sell to buy, or when we reach tp/sl points, or when we reach % basaed equity points.
It can be changed to be fixed lots, or fixed tp/sl , you just have to uncomment the size from entries, and tp/sl lines.
At the same time, it has the possibility if one desires, to trade only concrete forex session like european, asian and so on for intraday trading.
Hope you enjoy it.
Let me know how it goes.
