MDZ Strategy v4.2 - Multi-factor trend strategyWhat This Strategy Does
MDZ (Momentum Divergence Zones) v4.2 is a trend-following strategy that enters long positions when multiple momentum and trend indicators align. It's designed for swing trading on higher timeframes (2H-4H) and uses ATR-based position management.
The strategy waits for strong trend confirmation before entry, requiring agreement across five different filters. This reduces trade frequency but aims to improve signal quality.
Entry Logic
A long entry triggers when ALL of the following conditions are true:
1. EMA Stack (Trend Structure)
Price > EMA 20 > EMA 50 > EMA 200
This "stacked" alignment indicates a strong established uptrend
2. RSI Filter (Momentum Window)
RSI between 45-75 (default)
Confirms momentum without entering overbought territory
3. ADX Filter (Trend Strength)
ADX > 20 (default)
Ensures the trend has sufficient strength, not a ranging market
4. MACD Confirmation
MACD line above signal line
Histogram increasing (momentum accelerating)
5. Directional Movement
+DI > -DI
Confirms bullish directional pressure
Exit Logic
Positions are managed with ATR-based levels:

The default configuration produces a 1:2.4 risk-reward ratio.

Important Notes
⚠️ This is a long-only strategy. It does not take short positions.
⚠️ Historical results do not guarantee future performance. Backtests show what would have happened in the past under specific conditions. Markets change, and any strategy can experience drawdowns or extended losing periods.
⚠️ Risk management is your responsibility. The default settings risk 100% of equity per trade for backtesting purposes. In live trading, appropriate position sizing based on your risk tolerance is essential.
⚠️ Slippage and commissions matter. The backtest includes 0.02% commission and 1 tick slippage, but actual execution costs vary by broker and market conditions.
Best Practices
Test on your specific market — Results vary significantly across different instruments
Use appropriate position sizing — Never risk more than you can afford to lose
Combine with your own analysis — No indicator replaces understanding market context
Paper trade first — Validate the strategy matches your trading style before risking capital
Alerts
Two alerts are available:
MDZ Long Entry: Fires when all entry conditions are met
Uptrend Started: Fires when EMA stack first aligns bullish
Methodology
This strategy is based on the principle that trend continuation has better odds than reversal when multiple timeframe momentum indicators agree. By requiring five independent confirmations, it filters out weak setups at the cost of fewer total signals.
The ATR-based exits adapt to current volatility rather than using fixed pip/point targets, which helps the strategy adjust to different market conditions.

Trailing-stop
Fibonacci-Only StrategyFibonacci-Only Strategy
This script is a custom trading strategy designed for traders who leverage Fibonacci retracement levels to identify potential trade entries and exits. The strategy is versatile, allowing users to trade across multiple timeframes, with built-in options for dynamic stop loss, trailing stops, and take profit levels.
Key Features:
Custom Fibonacci Levels:
This strategy calculates three specific Fibonacci retracement levels: 19%, 82.56%, and the reverse 19% level. These levels are used to identify potential areas of support and resistance where price reversals or breaks might occur.
The Fibonacci levels are calculated based on the highest and lowest prices within a 100-bar period, making them dynamic and responsive to recent market conditions.
Dynamic Entry Conditions:
Touch Entry: The script enters long or short positions when the price touches specific Fibonacci levels and confirms the move with a bullish (for long) or bearish (for short) candle.
Break Entry (Optional): If the "Use Break Strategy" option is enabled, the script can also enter positions when the price breaks through Fibonacci levels, providing more aggressive entry opportunities.
Stop Loss Management:
The script offers flexible stop loss settings. Users can choose between a fixed percentage stop loss or an ATR-based stop loss, which adjusts based on market volatility.
The ATR (Average True Range) stop loss is multiplied by a user-defined factor, allowing for tailored risk management based on market conditions.
Trailing Stop Mechanism:
The script includes an optional trailing stop feature, which adjusts the stop loss level as the market moves in favor of the trade. This helps lock in profits while allowing the trade to run if the trend continues.
The trailing stop is calculated as a percentage of the difference between the entry price and the current market price.
Multiple Take Profit Levels:
The strategy calculates seven take profit levels, each at incremental percentages above (for long trades) or below (for short trades) the entry price. This allows for gradual profit-taking as the market moves in the trade's favor.
Each take profit level can be customized in terms of the percentage of the position to be closed, providing precise control over exit strategies.
Strategy Backtesting and Results:
Realistic Backtesting:
The script has been backtested with realistic account sizes, commission rates, and slippage settings to ensure that the results are applicable to actual trading scenarios.
The backtesting covers various timeframes and markets to ensure the strategy's robustness across different trading environments.
Default Settings:
The script is published with default settings that have been optimized for general use. These settings include a 15-minute timeframe, a 1.0% stop loss, a 2.0 ATR multiplier for stop loss, and a 1.5% trailing stop.
Users can adjust these settings to better fit their specific trading style or the market they are trading.
How It Works:
Long Entry Conditions:
The strategy enters a long position when the price touches the 19% Fibonacci level (from high to low) or the reverse 19% level (from low to high) and confirms the move with a bullish candle.
If the "Use Break Strategy" option is enabled, the script will also enter a long position when the price breaks below the 19% Fibonacci level and then moves back up, confirming the break with a bullish candle.
Short Entry Conditions:
The strategy enters a short position when the price touches the 82.56% Fibonacci level and confirms the move with a bearish candle.
If the "Use Break Strategy" option is enabled, the script will also enter a short position when the price breaks above the 82.56% Fibonacci level and then moves back down, confirming the break with a bearish candle.
Stop Loss and Take Profit Logic:
The stop loss for each trade is calculated based on the selected method (fixed percentage or ATR-based). The strategy then manages the trade by either trailing the stop or taking profit at predefined levels.
The take profit levels are set at increments of 0.5% above or below the entry price, depending on whether the position is long or short. The script gradually exits the trade as these levels are hit, securing profits while minimizing risk.
Usage:
For Fibonacci Traders:
This script is ideal for traders who rely on Fibonacci retracement levels to find potential trade entries and exits. The script automates the process, allowing traders to focus on market analysis and decision-making.
For Trend and Swing Traders:
The strategy's flexibility in handling both touch and break entries makes it suitable for trend-following and swing trading strategies. The multiple take profit levels allow traders to capture profits in trending markets while managing risk.
Important Notes:
Originality: This script uniquely combines Fibonacci retracement levels with dynamic stop loss management and multiple take profit levels. It is not just a combination of existing indicators but a thoughtful integration designed to enhance trading performance.
Disclaimer: Trading involves risk, and it is crucial to test this script in a demo account or through backtesting before applying it to live trading. Users should ensure that the settings align with their individual risk tolerance and trading strategy.
Pure Morning 2.0 - Candlestick Pattern Doji StrategyThe new "Pure Morning 2.0 - Candlestick Pattern Doji Strategy" is a trend-following, intraday cryptocurrency trading system authored by devil_machine.
The system identifies Doji and Morning Doji Star candlestick formations above the EMA60 as entry points for long trades.
For best results we recommend to use on 15-minute, 30-minute, or 1-hour timeframes, and are ideal for high-volatility markets.
The strategy also utilizes a profit target or trailing stop for exits, with stop loss set at the lowest low of the last 100 candles. The strategy's configuration details, such as Doji tolerance, and exit configurations are adjustable.
In this new version 2.0, we've incorporated a new selectable filter. Since the stop loss is set at the lowest low, this filter ensures that this value isn't too far from the entry price, thereby optimizing the Risk-Reward ratio.
In the specific case of ALPINE, a 9% Take-Profit and and Stop-Loss at Lowest Low of the last 100 candles were set, with an activated trailing-stop percentage, Max Loss Filter is not active.

TrailingStopsLibrary "TrailingStops"
This library contains functions to output trailing stop lines.
f_marketStructureStop(_restartMode, _flipMode, _restartLowIn, _restartHighIn)
Parameters:
_restartMode - Defines how the stop lines persist. Allowed values are:
"Always On" - The stop lines are always present and they just reset when they're crossed.
"Flip" - The stop lines flip when they're crossed.
"Manual" - The stop lines turn off when they're crossed, and turn back on again when _restartLowIn or _restartHighIn are passed into the function as true.
_flipMode - Defines whether the stop lines are broken by wicks or closes. Allowed values are "Wick", and "Close".
_restartLowIn - If _restartMode is "Manual", passing this parameter as true restarts the Low stop line.
_restartHighIn - If _restartMode is "Manual", passing this parameter as true restarts the High stop line.
@returns - floats for the Low and High stop line.
Wilder's Volatility Trailing Stop Strategy with various MA'sFor Educational Purposes. Results can differ on different markets and can fail at any time. Profit is not guaranteed.
This only works in a few markets and in certain situations. Changing the settings can give better or worse results for other markets. This strategy is based on Wilder's Volatility System. It is an ATR trailing stop that is used for long term trends. This strategy focuses on the trailing stop alone and goes long and short only when it goes above or below the trailing line. It is similar to Donchian channels except it does not include the certain period channel breakout, only the trailing signal. This is only the trailing stop and an attempt to show how well it works standalone as Wilder described.
In his book, Wilder recommends a multiplier of 2.8-3.1 and an ATR lookback of 7 periods along with a running moving average or otherwise known as Wilder's moving average. The calculation and programming part for the trailing stop varies everywhere. I opted to keep it as simple and accurate as I could think of and interpret from the book. The variations to these types of indicators are numerous unfortunately, but Wilder seems to be the original author of ATR and this ATR-based trailing stop. In his book he says to use the significant closing price or highest/lowest closing price for the calculation part but I also included the option of choosing the highest high and lowest low, and the option to choose various moving averages in case anyone wants to experiment.
Comparing this and Donchian channels, it seems that a 2.5 multiplier is somewhat similar to the middle band of DCs and a 3.0 multiplier is somewhat similar to a double length middle band of DCs. It's hard to say which is the better trailing stop for a long term strategy. It's hard to beat the simplicity of DCs but maybe some might find a need for more inputs in a trailing stop or maybe an ATR based one like Wilder's can work better depending on what setting or strategy it's used in.

Percent Trailing Stop (%) - For Study Scripts===========
Percent Trailing Stop (%) - { FOR STUDY SCRIPTS }
===========
Wow - this is an example of how to implement Alerts relating to a Trailing Stop (%) within your Study Script. It's taken a bit of effort to get this working but I think we got there!
Alerts include Open Long/Short, Trailing Stop Hit, and (the most important one) Movement of Trailing Stop! <- this is actually really quite good, by the way! :)
You can ignore the actual entry/exit orders - they're based on a simple MA cross and are therefore NOT relevant, NOT profitable and NOT recommended!
You should be using this code as a way of adding a Trailing Stop to your own scripts - hope it helps!
Set your "Open Long/Short" Alert to "Once per Bar Close" - Set your "Trailing Stop Hit" Alert to "Once per Bar" - Set your "Move TSL" Alert to "Once per Bar Close". - You're all done! Enjoy.

Good Luck and Happy Trading!

Another Stop Loss Indicator today - our last Fixed SL/TP script went down quite well, this one is for adding a Percent Trailing Stop from Entry Price to your own strategy.
You can ignore the actual entry/exit orders - they're based on a simple MA cross and are therefore NOT relevant, NOT profitable and NOT recommended!
You should be using this code as a way of adding a % Trailing Stop to your own scripts - hope it helps!
You should also notice that a generally considered losing strategy (a simple MA cross) could actually become profitable with careful money management - try combining this Trailing Stop script with our Fixed Stop/Take Profit script for really accurate management of your capital.

Good Luck and Happy Trading!
ATR for Trailing StopAn ATR (Average True Range) can be used to position a trailing stop
In this script, the true range of today is calculated based on the low of yesterday in order to be more stable.
It only goes up, as a trailing stop should do.
It only goes down when the trailing stop is reached by the price.
ATR for Trailing StopThe calculation of this ATR is based on the low of yesterday in order to not change continuously during the day.
You can use this indicator to create a trailing stop taking into account volatility on the nATRPeriod previous days.
It also always go up as a trailing stop should. It only goes down the price reaches the trailing stop.
Simple Trailing stopSince my exchange doesn't support trailing stop I made a script for it.
It is fully configurable, which means you can set the bars for calculation, the offset and sources for trigger and calculation.
The original purpose for me was to send a command to my bot. If you like it please comment and check out my other scripts.
