Three EMAs Trend-following Strategy (by Coinrule)Trend-following strategies are great because they give you the peace of mind that you're trading in line with the market.
However, by definition, you're always following . That means you're always a bit later than your want to be. The main challenges such strategies face are:
Confirming that there is a trend
Following the trend, hopefully, early enough to catch the majority of the move
Hopping off the trade when it seems to have run its course
This EMA Trend-following strategy attempts to address such challenges while allowing for a dynamic stop loss.
ENTRY
The trading system requires three crossovers on the same candle to confirm that a new trend is beginning:
Price crossing over EMA 7
Price crossing over EMA 14
Price crossing over EMA 21
The first benefit of using all three crossovers is to reduce false signals. The second benefit is that you know that a strong trend is likely to develop relatively soon, with the help of the fast setup of the three EMAs.
EXIT
The strategy comes with a fixed take profit and a volatility stop, which acts as a trailing stop to adapt to the trend's strength. That helps you get out of the way as soon as market conditions change. Depending on your long term confidence in the asset, you can edit the fixed take profit to be more conservative or aggressive.
The position is closed when:
The price increases by 4%
The price crosses below the volatility stop.
The best time frame for this strategy based on our backtest is the 4-hr. Shorter timeframes can also work well, although they exhibit larger volatility in their returns. In general, this approach suits medium timeframes. A trading fee of 0.1% is taken into account. The fee is aligned to the base fee applied on Binance, which is the largest cryptocurrency exchange.

Trendfollowing
8 Day Extended Runs Inspired by Linda Bradford Raschke.
Strategy suited to the US T-note (ZN1!) with a t-test of 4.06.
The 5 day SMA is vital to Linda’s trend identification system. She’s done extensive testing and research using this indicator and has built models based on it. Linda used the 5 day SMA to determine that large outlier price moves happen in the direction of the trend in each market about 9-10 times per year. The powerful part about that number is that when the trend does persist, it can go on a long run, making this a trade with a high expected value.
Note: the current exit criteria is sell 10 days after entry, users should experiment with different stop placements.
Vin's Playzone Strategy How it works
Playzone is a very simple system, utilizing just two exponential moving
averages. The 'Zones' in which different 'actions' should be taken is
highlighted with different colors on the chart. Calculations for the zones
are based on the relative position of price to the two EMA lines and the
relationship between the two EMAs
How to use
The basic method for using Playzone is to follow the green/red color.
Buy when bar closes in green.
Sell when bar closes in red.
Using it this way is safe but slow and is expected to have around 35-40%
accuracy, while yielding around 2-3 profit factors. The system works best
on larger time frames.
The more advanced method uses the zones to switch between different
trading system and biases, or in conjunction with other indicators.
example 1:
Buy when Yellow-Green and Bullish Divergence between price and RSI is visible,
if not Buy on Green and vise-versa
example 2:
Set up a long-biased grid and trade long only when actionzone is in green
change the bias to short when actionzone turns to te bearish side(red)
(Look at colors on a larger time frame)
"We let the market tell us what to do, Not to outguess what the market gonna do."
Moving Average Exponential with Standard Deviation BandThis is standard EMA script available on Trading View and i have just added ability to add a channel based on standard deviation. In addition to it you can enable/disable optional lines from options and it would add 50% levels of upper and under channel. I added 50% as it provide important price levels if you have right settings selected for channel factor.
Trend Gradient Moving Average This moving average uses a gradient function which calculates the number of advances/declines of the moving average to change the intensity of the colors, meaning a longer trend in either direction will show a stronger color. You can choose 3 colors to build the gradient: a bullish, bearish & neutral/transition color. The number of steps chosen will change the speed of color change, with a lower number of steps meaning a faster transition and viceversa.
Furthermore, you can choose between many different types of moving averages:
-SMA (Simple Moving Average)
-EMA (Exponential Moving Average)
-RMA (Rolling Moving Average)
-WMA (Weighted Moving Average)
-HMA (Hull Moving Average)
-VWMA (Volume Weighted Moving Average)
-TMA (Triangular Moving Average)

Strategy Template - V2This is an educational script created to demonstrate few basic building blocks of a trend based strategy and how to achieve different entry and exit types. My initial intention was to create a comprehensive strategy template which covers all the aspects of strategy. But, ended up creating fully fledged strategy based on trend following.
This is an enhancement on Strategy-Template But this script is comparitively more complex. Hence I decided to create new version instead of updating the existing one.
Lets dive deep.
SIMPLE COMPONENTS OF TREND FOLLOWING STRATEGY
TREND BIAS - This defines the direction of trend. Idea is not to trade against the trend direction. If the bias is bullish, look for long opportunities and if bias is bearish, look for short opportunities. Stay out of the market when the bias is neutral.
Often, trend bias is determined based on longer timeframe conditions. Example - 200 Moving Average, Higher timeframe moving averages, Higher timeframe high-lows etc. can be used for determining the trend bias.
In this script, I am using Weekly donchian channels combined with daily donchian channels to define trend bias.
Long Bias - 40 Day donchian channel sits completely in upper portion of 40 Week dochnial channel.
Short Bias - 40 Day donchian channel sits completely in lower portion of 40 Week donchian channel.
ENTRY CONDITION - Entry signals are generated only in the direction of bias. Hence, when in LongBias, we only get Long signals and when in short bias, we only get short signals.
In our case, when in Long Bias - if price hits 40 day high for the first time, this creates our long entry signal. Similarly when in Short Bias , price hitting 40 day low will create signal for going short. Since we do not take trades opposite to trend, no entry conditions are formed when price hits 40 day high in Short Bias or 40 day low in Long Bias.
EXIT CONDITION - Exit conditions are formed when we get signals of trend failure.
In our case, when in long trade, price hitting 40 day low creates exit signal. Similarly when in short trade price hitting 40 day high creates exit signal for short trade.
DIFFERENT TYPES OF ENTRY AND EXIT
In this script, I have tried to demonstrate different entry and exit types.
Entry types
Market - Enter immediately when entry signal is received. That is, in this case when price crossover over high in long bias and crosses under low in short bias
Stop - This method includes estimating at what level new highs are made and creating a stop buy order at that level. This way, we do not miss if the break out is stronger. But, susciptible to fail during fakeouts.
Limit - This method includes executing a limit order to buy at lower price or sell at higher price. In trend following methods, downside of limit order is when there is genuine breakout, these limit orders may not hit and during trend failures the limit orders are likely to hit and go straight to stop.
Stop-Limit - this is same as stop order but will also place a limit condition to avoid buying on overextended breakout or with lots of slippage.
Exit types
Market - whether to keep the existing trade running or whether to close it is determined after close of each bar and exit orders are executed manually upon receiving exit signal.
Stop - We place stop loss orders beforehand when there is a trade in place. This can help in avoiding big movements against trade within bar. But, this may also stop on false signals or fakeouts.
Take profit
Stop - No take profits are configured.
Target - 30% of the positions are closed when take profit levels are hit. Take profit levels are defined by risk reward.
USING THE CODE AS TEMPLATE
As mentioned earlier, I intended to create a fully fledged strategy template. But, ended up creating a fully fledged stratgy. However, you can take some part of this code and use it to start your own strategy. Will explain what all things can be adopted without worrying about the strategy implementation within
Strategy definition : This can be copied as is and just change the title of strategy. This defines some of the commonly used parameters of strategy which can help with close to realistic backtesting results for your coded strategy and comparison with buy and hold.
Generic Strategy Parameters : The parameter which defines controlling alllowed trade direction and trading window are present here. This again can be copied as is and variable inDateRange can be directly used in entry conditions.
Generic Methods : f_getMovingAverage and f_secureSecurity are handy and can be used as is. atr method provideded by pine gives you ATR based on RMA. If you want SMA or any other moving average based ATR, you can use the method f_getCustomAtr
Trade Statements : This section has all types of trading instructions which includes market/stop/limit/stop-limit type of entries and exits and take profit statements. You can adopt the type of entry you are interested in and change when condition to suit your strategy.
Trade conditions and levels : This section is required. But, cannot be copied. All the trade logic goes here which also sets parameters which are used in when of Trade Statements.
Hope this helps.
Ichimoku Cloud Strategy IdeaThis strategy idea uses the famous Ichimoku Cloud (Forward-shifted SMA-9 and SMA-26) and Chiku (52-candle lagged close price) with its default parameters. This strategy is slow and issues few signals. However, this is one of the most performant long-term trend trading strategies. It usually works well on 1D and 4H timeframes and even better on trending instruments. This is the implementation used in QuantCT app.
You can set operation mode to be Long/Short or long-only.
You also can set a fixed stop-loss or ignore it so that the strategy act solely based on entry and exit signals.
Trade Idea
When both close price and chiku are above the cloud, market is considered rising (bullish) and the plotted cloud becomes green.
When both close price and chiku are below the cloud, market is considered falling (bearish) and the plotted cloud becomes red.
Otherwise, market is considered ranging and the plotted cloud becomes orange.
Entry/Exit rules
Enter LONG right after both close price and chiku went above the cloud (i.e. when the end of the plotted cloud becomes green).
Enter SHORT right after both close price and chiku went below the cloud (i.e. when the end of the plotted cloud becomes red).
EXIT market when close price enters the cloud.
CAUTION
It's just a bare trading idea - but a profitable one. You can enhance this idea and turn it into a full trading strategy with enhanced risk/money management and optimizing it, and you ABSOLUTELY should do this!
DON'T insist on using Long/Short mode on all instruments! This strategy performs much better in Long-Only mode on several instruments (Like BTC , ETH, etc.), and also performs better in Long/Short mode on other instruments (Like VET, BNT, etc.).

Trend Bounce [racer8]I discovered this mechanical trading system titled "This Algo Strategy Has Only 3 rules and 62% Win Rate".
I coded the trading system on Tradingview...and now I am introducing it to you guys.
I modified the system so that it has both buy & sell signals.
I've tested it repeatedly in different markets on TV including stocks, currency pairs, bitcoin, and commodities...and it works!
A buy signal is generated whenever the current close is below the previous 7-day low and the current close is above the 200 period moving average.
A sell signal is generated whenever the current close is above the previous 7-day high and the current close is below the 200 period moving average.
The system also has a 2-ATR stop loss which I coded.
This system is unique in that it has both trend-following and reversal elements in it.
The system trades short-term reversals while obeying the long-term trend.
Essentially, you are buying the dips of bullish trends! & selling at the peaks of bearish trends!
Enjoy ♡
FiboDonchianDonchian channels were developed by Richard Donchian, the father of trend following. The two outer bands are plotted as the highest high and lowest low for a set period of time.
In the FiboDonchian, the channel is divided into 3 zones according to Fibonacci levels:
0-0.382 (Bullish Zone)
0.382-0.618 (Neutral Zone)
0.618-1(Bearish Zone)
These levels will usually act as support and resistance during trends, and will reverse depending on the direction of the trend (e.g. in an uptrend the .382 is above the .5 and during a downtrend it is below).
An option to color candles according to the trend is given, with the following logic:
-During uptrends, candles will turn bullish when a new high is made and will remain in this state as long as price closes in the upper zone. Below this zone price turns neutral until a new high or low is made.
-During downtrends, candles will turn bearish when a new low is made and will remain like this provided that price closes in the lower zone. Above this zone price turns neutral until a new low or high is made.
Enjoy!!
Breakout Trend Follower V2This is a variation on my other Breakout Trend Follower script. In the other script, you can use a moving average to act as a filter for your trades (i.e. if the price is below the moving average, it won't go long). After making the tool that detects trends on higher timeframes, I wanted to see if that might be a better filter than a moving average.
So this script lets you look at higher time frame trends (i.e. are there higher highs and higher lows? If so, this is an uptrend). You only take trades when you are with the trend. You have the ability to select up to two trends to act as a filter. Each trend direction is shown on a table on the chart for easy reference. The current pivot highs and lows are plotted on the chart so you can see when you might be breaking both the current timeframe's trend and higher level trends.
What I found was that in general this does not perform as well as the other strategy, but it does seem to be a lot more picky with trades. Showing higher win rates and a better profit factor. It just takes a lot less trades and the net profit isn't as good.
Keltner TrendThis indicator takes the concept of Keltner Channels and uses them as a trend following system by using a deviation band of 1 ATR, such that when the price closes above the upper band a bull trend is predicted to follow, and when the price closes below the lower band the start of a bear trend is assumed.
Only 1 band is plotted at all times depending on the bias of the trend.
Default settings are a 21 EMA as a centerline with a 13 period ATR.
Enjoy!
Momentum Trading By Mahfuz AzimA following indicator is Momentum Trading that uses fast QQE crosses with Moving Averages
Use for trend direction filtering. QQE or Qualitative Quantitative Estimation is based
Relative strength index (RSI), but uses a smoothing technique as an additional transformation. Three crosses can be selected (all selected by default)
Trend Follow SystemTrend following algorithm:
We take 1- 5 Fibonacci Ema values. 21, 34, 55, 89, 144
2- We normalize the changes of these values over time between 1-100.
3- We take the ema value of 1 length so that it does not follow a horizontal course after the normalization process.
4- In order not to experience too much change, we take the value of sma with a length of 5.
5-We think that when all values are 100, the trend is up, when all values are 0, the trend is down, otherwise the trend is horizontal.
PMA Strategy IdeaThis strategy idea uses three EMAs on HLC/3 data, know as PMA(Pivot Moving Average). This strategy is very useful in trending instruments on 1W and 1D timeframes. This is the implementation used in QuantCT app. The study version of this idea is published in public library as ACD PMA .
You can set operation mode to be Long/Short or long-only.
You also can set a fixed stop-loss or ignore it so that the strategy act solely based on entry and exit signals.
Trade Idea
When all EMAs are rising, market is considered rising (bullish) and the plotted indicator becomes green.
When all EMAs are falling, market is considered falling (bearish) and the plotted indicator becomes red.
Otherwise, market is considered ranging and the plotted indicator becomes orange.
Entry/Exit rules
Enter LONG if all EMAs are rising (i.e. when the plotted indicator becomes green).
Enter SHORT if all EMAs are falling (i.e. when the plotted indicator becomes red).
EXIT market if none of the above (i.e. when the plotted indicator becomes orange).
CAUTION
It's just a bare trading idea - a profitable one. However, you can enhance this idea and turn it into a full trading strategy with enhanced risk/money management and optimizing it, and you ABSOLUTELY should do this!
DON'T insist on using Long/Short mode on all instruments! This strategy performs much better in Long-Only mode on many (NOT All) trending instruments (Like BTC , ETH, etc.).
Momentum Strategy IdeaThis strategy idea uses two, fast and slow, momentum indicators for trade setups and exits. This is a fast reacting strategy which is very useful in trending instruments on 1D and 4H timeframes. This is the implementation used in QuantCT app.
You can set operation mode to be Long/Short or long-only.
You also can set a fixed stop-loss or ignore it so that the strategy act solely based on entry and exit signals.
Trade Idea
When both momentum indicators are positive, asset is considered rising ( bullish ) and the plotted indicator becomes green.
When both momentum indicators are negative, asset is considered falling ( bearish ) and the plotted indicator becomes red.
Otherwise, asset is considered ranging and the plotted indicator becomes orange.
Entry/Exit rules
Enter LONG if both momentum indicators are greater than zero (i.e. when the plotted indicator becomes green).
Enter SHORT if both momentum indicators are lower than zero (i.e. when the plotted indicator becomes red).
EXIT market if none of the above (i.e. when the plotted indicator becomes orange).
CAUTION
It's just a bare trading idea - a profitable one. However, you can enhance this idea and turn it into a full trading strategy with enhanced risk/money management and optimizing it, and you ABSOLUTELY should do this!
DON'T insist on using Long/Short mode on all instruments! This strategy performs much better in Long-Only mode on many (NOT All) trending instruments (Like BTC , ETH, etc.).

Maximized Scalping On Trend (by Coinrule)" The trend is your friend. " This is one of the most famous and valuable teachings that experienced traders can give to newbies. There is a reason for that.
No matter your views about where the price moves, what matters is where the price heads to . The market is always right, and ultimately it decides who gets the profit and who has to take a loss.
The purpose of this strategy is to spot when it's the most suitable time to buy an asset profiting from a potential short-term price increase. The strategy tends to open trades frequently, closing them on average in one and a half days.
ENTRY
The buy order is placed on assets that present strong momentum when it's more likely that it is about to increase further in the short term.
To capture momentum on the asset, the rule strategy requires:
the MA50 greater than the MA100
the RSI greater than 50
The rule, then, places the order when
The price crosses above the MA9.
EXIT
This strategy comes with a stop loss and a take profit which adapt dynamically to market conditions.
The trade is closed in profit when the RSI is greater than 70 , as the trend could experience a pull-back.
Alternatively, the trade is closed when the RSI is lower than 30 , being this a sign of weakening of the trend.
Pro tip : The 1-hour time frame has proven to return the best results on average. The strategy can also work well in the 15-min time frame if you want to increase the trades' frequency.
The strategy assumes each order to trade 30% of the available capital and opens a trade at a time. A trading fee of 0.1% is taken into account.
Breakout FinderHelo All,
I got many requests for a Breakout script and here it's. This script searches the breakouts/breakdowns and draw square if there is one.
The options:
"Period" is used to find Pivot Points
"Max Breakout Length" is the maximum length to search breakouts
"Threshold Rate %" is channel width of the breakout area. calculated using highest/lowest of last 300 bars.
"Minimum Number of Tests" is the minimum number of tests that the Price tried to break the S/R level
and some options for coloring and linestyle
Lets see some examples:
in this example "Minimum Number of Tests" is 2 so the Price must have tested to break resistance area 2 times and then it breaks it as seen in the screenshot:
in following example Threshold rate is %10, so the channel width is very big:
as you can see in followinf screenshot you can choose different colors and line styles:
Alerts added ;)
Enjoy!
MTF Trend WidgetThis indicator identifies trends in multiple higher timeframes (D, W, M) and shows them in a widget off to the right of the chart.
It's meant to be used as an alternative filter for "trading with the trend." Typically people use moving averages of varying lengths for this (i.e. if over 200 MA it's an uptrend, etc.), but I wanted to see if it might be more effective to see if the higher timeframes were actually trending or not in a certain direction.
For the purposes of this indicator, an uptrend is defined as higher highs and higher lows. So if currently in a downtrend and the highs are broken, the indicator will flip to an uptrend because now we have a higher high. Vice versa for downtrends.
The user can choose the lookback period for defining these highs/lows (the pivot points). A smaller lookback number will give you more frequent pivot points.
The user can toggle on visibility of all historical pivot points to make sure the frequency and placement of the swing highs/lows is to their liking.
The user can show the support/resistance lines of those most recent swing high/low points on the multiple timeframes as well.
When these lines are breached, that is when the trends change, so you can see if you are close to changing any longer term trends.
My hope is that this gives people a quick glance at the overall trend without having to cycle through different timeframes.
Indicator PanelHello All,
This script shows Indicator panel in a Table. Table.new() is a new feature and released today! Thanks a lot to Pine Team to add this new great feature! This new feature is a game changer!
The script shows indicator values for each symbol and changes background color of each cell by using current and last values of the indicators for each symbol. if current value is greater than last value then backgroung color is green, if lower than last value then red, if they are equals then gray.
You can choose the indicators to display. Number of columns in the table is dynamic and is changed by number of the indicators.
You can choose 5 different Symbols, 6 Indicators and 2 Simple or Exponential Moving averages, you can set type of moving averages and the lengths. You can also set the lengths for each Indicators.
Indicators:
- RSI
- MACD ( MACD and Signal and Histogram )
- DMI ( +DI and -DI + and ADX )
- CCI
- MFI
- Momentum
- MA with Length 50 (length can be set)
- MA with Length 200 (length can be set)
In this example RSI, MACD and MA 200 were chosen, you can see how table size changes dynamically:
Enjoy!
