[Opening Range Breakout] S&R Strategy with Backtest (TSO) S&R Strategy with Backtest (TSO)
===========================================================================
===========================================================================
This indicator serves as a comprehensive full-cycle trading system, providing alerts at each stage of the trade, from opening to closure. The algorithm initiates by calculating the Opening/Pre-Market Price Range, waiting for a breakout to generate signals, and establishing TP (Take Profit and SL (Stop Loss) levels. The Opening/Pre-Market range, known for its robust support and resistance levels, is a key element. To filter out false breakouts and capture valid ones, the indicator incorporates a Smart Breakout feature, requiring confirmation through an initial breakout, a confirmation bounce, and a subsequent confirmation breakout. The indicator offers a variety of automated approaches for TP (Take-Profit) and SL (Stop-Loss) settings. These include leveraging opening range levels, both the most recent and historical S&R (Support and Resistance) levels, and an ATR (Average True Range) trailing stop-loss. This diverse set of tools ensure flexibility in tailoring TP (Take-Profit) and SL (Stop-Loss) parameters to different market conditions, contributing to a more adaptive and robust trading system. Additionally, a series of signal analysis tools, including candle bar analysis, divergence, and volume, enhance the precision of trading signals.
* Works with popular timeframes: 1M, 3M, 5M, 15M, 30M, 45M, 1H.
* Works best with Indices, Stocks, and Commodities, since there is pre-market price movement, which is used to obtain support and resistance price range.
* Every action of the trade is calculated on a confirmed closed candle bar state (barstate.isconfirmed), so the indicator will never repaint.

Indicator visual examples with various instruments:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Strategy Config: ORB_AAPL(NASDAQ)_15M
Example of Signal Cleanup confirmations via SMA and ATR. Take-Profit is calculated per optimal S&R (resistance) most recent levels.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Strategy Config: ORB_AMD(NASDAQ)_5M
Example of optimal S&R (resistance) level from previous day for Take-Profit 1 target, which gets hit.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Strategy Config: ORB_META(NASDAQ)_5M
Example of dynamic SL (Stop-Loss), which reduces the risk by moving to the new support level, which is at the same time is below the current price. Also Signal Cleanup confirmations via SMA, ATR and VWAP
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Strategy Config: ORB_MSFT(NASDAQ)_15M
Example of automated ATR Trail Stop-Loss activation at no optimal S&R (support) feature.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Strategy Config: ORB_NFLX(NASDAQ)_3M
Example of a skipped LONG trade due to no optimal S&R (support) for Stop-Loss (can be seen per chart that it would be a loss trade). On another side, a SHORT SMA Confirmed trade hits all 3 profit targets.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Strategy Config: ORB_NVDA(NASDAQ)_15M
Example of no optimal support for SHORT Take-Profit targets, with ATR Trail Stop-Loss.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Strategy Config: ORB_SPY(AMEX)_15M
Example of several signal confirmations at the same time (SMA, VWAP, EWO) and S&R-TP-Entry-SL SL (Stop-Loss) system, which at trade open sets SL (Stop-Loss) per optimal S&R (since this is a LONG trade - support) and then moves to Entry at first take-profit.

CUSTOM TRADING DATE RANGE /////////////////////////////////////////////////
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>>>> This feature can be used to manually set indicator trading range from and to a specific date and time. NOTE: This is not intended for a very long date range backtesting, utilize TradingView Strategy Tester for that.
* Use TradingView “Strategy Tester” to see Backtesting results
NOTE: If Strategy Tester does not show any results with Date Ranged fully unchecked, there may be an issue where a script opens a trade, but there is not enough TradingView power to set the Take-Profit and Stop-Loss and somehow an open trade gets stuck and never closes, so there are “no trades present”. In such case - manually check “Start”/“End” dates or use “Deep Backtesting” feature!

TRADE SIGNAL CONFIGURATION ////////////////////////////////////////////////
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>> Opening Range - Time Period (ET): Opening/Pre-Market Range time, which by default is set to US Session Pre-Market Range, can be customized to any time range as there are different market hours around the world and this setting can be customized to any time. Pre-Market Time/Price Range Hours(ET) | Pre-Market EU/Asia Hours: 4:00-9:30 ET | Pre-Market US (NY) Hours: 7:00-9:30 ET | Post-Market US Hours: 16:00-19:00 ET | First US Market Hour: 9:30-10:30 ET | Power Hour: 15:00-16:00)
>>> Opening Range - Levels Structure: determines how the price range is calculated, based on the highest/lowest price zones or based on the candle body bar.
>>> Opening Range - Breakout System: "Simple": bar close price has to simply break the opening range level | "Smart": After initial breakout (which is basically 'Simple' Breakout), a price come back is expected to the opening range level, a bounce, then a confirmation breakout with price closing ahead of the initial breakout.
>>>>> Opening Range - Smart Breakout: # of bars until Initial Breakout becomes invalid
>>>>> Opening Range - Smart Breakout: Bounce Settings, "Cross-Return" - LONG: Price has to cross down the initial breakout S&R, but never close below it; SHORT: Price has to cross up the initial breakout S&R, but then close above it; ||| "Cross-Close-Return" - LONG: At least 1 candle has to close below initial breakout S&R; SHORT: At least 1 candle has to close above initial breakout S&R.
>>>>> Alerts - Opening Range - Smart Breakout: Confirmation Bounce Alert. Trigger an alert at confirmation bounce. This is for live trading (especially scalping) Smart Breakout approach - to get ready to open the trade in the correct direction.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TAKE-PROFIT/STOP-LOSS CONFIGURATION ///////////////////////////////////////
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>> TP (Take-Profit) and SL (Stop-Loss): S&R Search - Left Bars: This setting is for calculating optimal S&R (Support and Resistance) levels (in combination with below - Right Bars) for S&R (Support and Resistance) TP (Take-Profit) levels calculations. NOTE: if at any point - there will be no available S&R (Support & Resistance) found for SL (Stop-Loss, 'S&R-Dynamic-SL' or 'S&R-Static-SL' setting, since both settings search for optimal SL (Stop-Loss) at trade open) or TP (Take-Profit, at any setting, since at trade open, an optimal TP (Take-Profit) level is searched) > SL (Stop-Loss) will automatically switch to trailing ATR-Trailing-SL and the trade will continue to run until it either hits ATR-Trailing-SL (Stop-Loss) or closes at EOD (End of Day).
>>> TP (Take-Profit) and SL (Stop-Loss): S&R Search - Right Bars: This setting is for calculating optimal S&R (Support and Resistance) levels (in combination with above - Left Bars) for S&R (Support and Resistance) TP (Take-Profit) levels calculations. NOTE: if at any point - there will be no available S&R (Support & Resistance) found for SL (Stop-Loss, 'S&R-Dynamic-SL' or 'S&R-Static-SL' setting, since both settings search for optimal SL (Stop-Loss) at trade open) or TP (Take-Profit, at any setting, since at trade open, an optimal TP (Take-Profit) level is searched) > SL (Stop-Loss) will automatically switch to trailing ATR-Trailing-SL and the trade will continue to run until it either hits ATR-Trailing-SL (Stop-Loss) or closes at EOD (End of Day).
>>> TP (Take-Profit) and SL (Stop-Loss): S&R Search - Custom Resolution: This is a custom timeframe setting specifically for S&R Search, it disregards current chart timeframe. This is great to use for scalping, for example: with main chart set to 1min and the custom timeframe set to 3min or 5min - there will be stronger support/resistance levels with more detailed price action.
>>> TP (Take-Profit) and SL (Stop-Loss): # of Bars (5000 max) to search back for optimal Support and Resistance levels: This is how many candles will be searched backwards for previous S&Rs (Support and Resistance) to find the optimal levels for TP (Take-Profit) and SL (Stop-Loss). NOTE: If SL (Stop-Loss) System is set to 'ATR-Trailing-SL' - this setting is only relevant for searching TP (Take-Profit) levels.
>>> TP (Take-Profit) and SL (Stop-Loss): At Trade Open - No S&R (Support and Resistance) found behavior: 'Skip Trade': If at trade open there are no S&R (Support and Resistance) levels for TP1 (Take-Profit 1) or SL (Stop-Loss) - trade is skipped. 'Open/ATR-Trailing-SL': If at trade open there are no S&R (Support and Resistance) levels for TP1 (Take-Profit 1) or SL (Stop-Loss), the trade will still be open with SL (Stop-Loss) set to 'ATR-Trailing-SL'.
>>> TP (Take-Profit) System: Pre-Market-Range-TP: All TP (Take-Profit) targets are calculated at trade open using the distance between Support and Resistance per Opening Pre-market Range and then divided by TP (Take-Profit) Divider, which can be set below; S&R-Current-Optimal-TP1: TP1 (Take-Profit) level is set per currently available S&R (Support & Resistance), if none available - historical S&R (Support & Resistance) levels will be searched, remaining TP (Take-Profit) targets (if selected, up to 5 # of TPs) are searched through most recent closest historical S&R (Support & Resistance) levels; S&R-Historic-Optimal-TP1: TP1 (Take-Profit) level is set per historically most recent closest available S&R (Support & Resistance) to the Entry price, remaining TP (Take-Profit) targets (if selected, up to 5 # of TPs) are searched through historical S&R (Support & Resistance) levels as well.
>>> TP (Take-Profit, Pre-Market-Range-TP) Divider #: This is for 'Pre-Market-Range-TP' setting only, where TP (Take-Profit) level is the distance between top/bottom levels of the opening range. It can be reduced by the divider #. (1 - full distance; 2 - 1/2 distance; 3 - 1/3 distance; etc.
>>> TP (Take-Profit) # of targets: It is wise to divide the trade into several profit targets. With this setting - up to 5 TP (Take-Profit) targets can be approached. The trade will be equally divided up by the selected # of TP (Take-Profit) targets.
>>> TP (Take-Profit) target(s) Consumed: Signal Bar consuming Take-Profits - trade signal bar is big enough to 'consume'/close ahead of the first TP setting > the signal can either be skipped, or all Take-Profit targets pushed ahead by average bar size).
>>> TP (Take-Profit) Offset - On/Off: This is a feature where TP (Take-Profit) target will be considered taken even if the price never crosses the target(s), but comes close enough (based on the offset amount). Set the offset amount below.
>>>>> TP (Take-Profit) Offset - Amount: Some Examples: (for SPY 0.1 would be $0.10 offset - if TP1 is $400 and price hits $399.90 > TP1 considered taken/signal shown/alert) | NOTE: For EURUSD, it is very different and if wrong will show TP1 immediately at trade open, typical good offset for EURUSD is: 0.0005 | Similar for BTCUSD, for example: 10 - $10 offset, if TP is $15,000 > $14,990.
>>> SL (Stop-Loss) System: 'Pre-Market-Range-SL': SL (Stop-Loss) is set to the opposite market range level from trade direction; 'S&R-Static-SL': SL (Stop-Loss) is set at trade open per optimal most recent S&R level and remains there until trade closes; 'S&R-Dynamic-SL': SL (Stop-Loss) is set at a trade open per optimal S&R (Support and Resistance) level from the most recent AND historical S&Rs (Support and Resistance), with every bar closed it will check if there are new S&Rs (Support and Resistance) levels, if these levels appear closer to the current price then current level - it will move SL (Stop-Loss) to that level, therefore reducing the risk; 'ATR-Trailing-SL': SL (Stop-Loss) is trail-following the ATR (Average True Range) line, NOTE: If at signal trigger, ATR will be against the trade direction - trade open signal will be skipped; 'S&R-TP-Entry-SL': SL (Stop-Loss) initially is set per S&R, then moves to Entry price at the very first TP (Take-Profit) hit and remains there until trade closes; 'S&R-TP-Trail-SL': SL (Stop-Loss) initially is set per S&R, then moves to Entry at TP1 (Take-Profit 1) hit, then keeps trailing per previously taken profit targets (TP2 taken, SL moves to TP1 | TP3 taken, SL moves to TP2 | TP4 taken, SL moves to TP3). NOTE: 'ATR-Trailing-SL' will not switch automatically if 'S&R-Dynamic-SL', S&R-TP-Entry-SL', 'S&R-TP-Trail-SL' system is selected, as already the most optimal SL (Stop-Loss) level is calculated - it will switch automatically only with 'S&R-Static-SL' system.
>>> SL (Stop-Loss) - On/Off: Without SL (Stop-Loss), unless EOD (End of Day) Close is turned on - there will be no SL (Stop-Loss) at all!

TP System - VERY IMPORTANT INFO!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"TP PERCENTAGE" - amount by which current trade/position needs to be reduced/partially closed/sold.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TP System: Dynamic
"TP PERCENTAGE" - will always be the same amount (trade/position size divided by the # of take-profit(TP) targets) and percentage to be closed will always be of the ORIGINAL trade/position.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TP System: Static
"TP PERCENTAGE" - will always be the same amount IF take-profit(TP) targets are hit 1-by-1 (TP1 > TP2 > TP3 > TP4 > TP5), otherwise it will vary and unless it is a 1st take-profit(TP1), the REMAINING trade/position size will always be smaller than original and therefore the percentage to be closed will always be of the REMAINING trade/position and NOT the original one!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"TP PERCENTAGE" CheatSheet (these are the only percentages you may see)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
TP PERCENTAGE---Close/Sell Amount-------------Example (trade size: 50 stocks)
20%-------------trade size * 0.2--------------50 * 0.2 = 10 stocks
25%-------------trade size * 0.25-------------50 * 0.25 = 12.5(~13) stocks
34%-------------trade size * 0.34-------------50 * 0.34 = 17 stocks
40%-------------trade size * 0.4--------------50 * 0.4 = 20 stocks
50%-------------trade size * 0.5--------------50 * 0.5 = 25 stocks
60%-------------trade size * 0.6--------------50 * 0.6 = 30 stocks
66%-------------trade size * 0.66-------------50 * 0.66 = 33 stocks
75%-------------trade size * 0.75-------------50 * 0.75 = 37.5(~38) stocks
80%-------------trade size * 0.8--------------50 * 0.8 = 40 stocks
100%------------trade size--------------------50 = 50 stocks
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
If for any reason a portion of the current/remaining trade closed at such occurrence was slightly wrong, it is not an issue. Such occurrences are rare and with slight difference in partial TP closed is not significant to overall performance of our algorithms.

Adding Alerts in TradngView
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Add indicator to chart and make sure the correct strategy is configured (check Backtesting results)
-Right-click anywhere on the TradingView chart
-Click on Add alert
-Condition: Select this indicator by it’s name
-Immediately below, change it to "alert() function calls only", as other wise there will be 2 alerts for every alert!
-Expiration: Open-ended (that may require higher tier TradingView account, otherwise the alert will need to be occasionally re-triggered)
-Alert name: Whatever you desire
-Hit “Create”
-Note: If you change ANY Settings within the indicator – you must DELETE the current alert and create a new one per steps above, otherwise it will continue triggering alerts per old Settings!
===========================================================================
If you have any questions or issues with the indicator, please message me directly via TradingView.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Good Luck! (NOTE: Trading is very risky, past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results, so please trade responsibly!)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: There seems to be a strange glitch when strategy is running live, it will show "double-take" take-profits labels on the chart. This is not affecting the script logic and backtesting results, if you simply change the timeframe real quick to something else then back - it will no longer show the duplicate orders... this must be some sort of a glitch as every alert was thoroughly tested to make sure everything is working!
Grafik Paternleri
LuxAlgo - Backtester (OSC)The OSC Backtester is an innovative strategy script that allows users to create a wide variety of strategies using various unique oscillators.
By utilizing our 'Step' and 'Match' algorithms, users can create custom and complex strategy entries from each of the supported oscillators and included conditions, as well as any external sources, allowing users to create entries from a sequence of conditions and/or multiple matching conditions.
We included a complete alert system that will send a notification for each action taken by the strategy and we also allow users to set custom messages for each action taken by a strategy.
🔶 Features
🔹 Step & Match Algorithm
More complex entry rules can be created by using multiple conditions together, this is done thanks to the Step dropdown setting on the right of each condition.
The Step setting is directly related to the Step & Match algorithm and works in two ways:
When two or more conditions have the same step number, both conditions are evaluated. Used to test matching conditions.
When two or more conditions have different step numbers, each conditions will be evaluated in order, testing for the first step and switching to the next step once the previous one is true. When the final step is true the strategy will open a market order. Used to create sequence of conditions.
This operation is complementary, as you can create a sequence of conditions with one step consisting of two or more matching conditions as long as they have the same step number.
🔹 Fully Customizable Entries From Various Oscillators And Conditions
We allow the users to set entries using our unique HyperWave, Smart Money Flow, and their derived conditions as entries.
The Hyper Wave is a normalized adaptive oscillator aiming to reflect price trends without returning a high amount of noise.
The Smart Money Flow aims to detect trends based on market activity, by doing a comparative analysis between current volume and historical volume. A Smart Money Flow above 50 suggest market participants are bullish, else bearish. Derived from this oscillator we have Overflow indications, this indicator detects when market is overbought or oversold based on participants activity.
Other entries include proprietary reversal signals, real-time divergence detection, oscillator confluence (indicating how aligned each oscillator is), as well as entries using external sources.
🔹 Complete Alert System
Users can get alerted for any action executed by a strategy, from opening positions to closing them.
The message field in the Alert Messages setting section allows for the strategy to send a custom alert message depending on the action taken by the strategy, if no messages are set the strategy will send default messages.
🔶 Usage
Users can create a wide variety of strategies from this script, whether they are trend-following or contrarian traders.
Let's see a contrarian (revesal-based) strategy example using the following entry conditions:
Long: Hyperwave bullish divergence and oversold Hyperwave (lower than 20).
Short: Hyperwave bearish divergence and overbought Hyperwave (greater than 20).
We can also introduce take-profit and stop-loss exit conditions based on external indicators, allowing more control over exits in our strategy. For example:
Long: Hyperwave crossing over 50 while money flow is bearish.
Short: Hyperwave crossing under 50 while money flow is bullish.
Exit Long on a profit (long exit tp): Hyperwave crossing 80.
Exit Short on a profit (short exit tp): Hyperwave crossing 20.
While this strategy script can be used as a standalone, we recommend using other indicators creatively to assist with entries and exits as well as TP/SLs.
Our Step & Match algorithm can magnify interoperability, allowing for way more complete strategies through complex conditions, let's demonstrate this using the following entries:
Long: Any bullish reversal occurring after the price crosses over the lowest upper reversal zone of the Signals & Overlays™.
Short: Any bearish reversal occurring after the price crosses under the highest lower reversal zone of the Signals & Overlays™.
Long TP/SL: 5 ATR's away from the entry price.
Short TP/SL: 5 ATR's away from the entry price.
🔶 Strategy Properties (Important)
This script backtest is done on daily EURGBP, using the following backtesting properties:
Balance (default): 10 000 (default base currency)
Order Size: 10% of the equity
Comission: 3.4 pips (average spread for EURGBP)
Slippage: 3 tick
Stop Loss: 0.02 points away from entry price
We use these properties to ensure a realistic preview of the backtesting system, do note that default properties can be different for various reasons described below:
Order Size: 1 contract by default, this is to allow the strategy to run properly on most instruments such as futures.
Comission: Comission can vary depending on the market and instrument, there is no default value that might return realistic results.
We strongly recommend all users to ensure they adjust the Properties within the script settings to be in line with their accounts & trading platforms of choice to ensure results from the strategies built are realistic.
🔶 How To Access
You can see the Author's Instructions below to learn how to get access.
LuxAlgo - Backtester (PAC)The PAC Backtester is an innovative strategy script that allows users to create a wide variety of strategies derived from price action-related concepts for a data-driven approach to discretionary trading strategies.
Thanks to our 'Step' and 'Match' algorithm, users can create custom and complex strategy entries and exits from features such as market structure, order blocks, imbalances, as well as any external indicators, allowing users to create entries from a sequence of conditions and/or multiple matching conditions.
We included a complete alert system that will send a notification for each action taken by the strategy and we also allow users to set custom messages for each action taken by a strategy.
🔶 Features
🔹 Step & Match Algorithm
More complex entry rules can be created by using multiple conditions together, this is done thanks to the Step dropdown setting on the right of each condition.
The Step setting is directly related to the Step & Match algorithm and works in two ways:
When two or more conditions have the same step number, both conditions are evaluated. Used to test matching conditions.
When two or more conditions have different step numbers, each condition will be evaluated in order, testing for the first step and switching to the next step once the previous one is true. When the final step is true the strategy will open a market order. Used to create a sequence of conditions.
This operation is complementary, as you can create a sequence of conditions with one step consisting of two or more matching conditions as long as they have the same step number.
🔹 Fully Customizable Price Action Concepts As Entries
We allow the users to use market structures, order blocks, imbalances, and external sources together to set their custom entry and exit conditions.
Market structures are commonly used to determine trend direction by indicating when prices break prior swing points. Their occurrence can be used as entry conditions.
Order blocks highlight areas where institutional market participants open positions, one can use order blocks to determine confirmation entries or potential targets as we can expect there is a large amount of liquidity at these order blocks. Price entering, being within, or mitigating an order block can be used as an entry condition.
Market imbalances highlight areas where there is a disparity between supply and demand. Price entering, being within, or mitigating an imbalance can be used as an entry condition.
This system also allows the use of external sources to create entry and exit conditions, such as moving averages, bands, trailing stops...etc.
🔹 Complete Alert System
Users can get alerted for any action executed by a strategy, from opening positions to closing them.
The message field in the Alert Messages setting section allows for the strategy to send a custom alert message depending on the action taken by the strategy, if no messages are set the strategy will send default messages.
🔶 Usage
Users can create complete price action strategies from this script, let's see an example using the following entry conditions:
Long: Mitigated bearish order block occurring during the New York session after a mitigated bearish imbalance.
Short: Mitigated bullish order block occurring during the New York session after a mitigated bullish imbalance.
Take Profit: 2 points away from the entry price.
Stop Loss: 1 point away from the entry price.
We can also use features from Price Action Concepts™ to construct custom exit conditions, leading to the following strategy conditions:
Long: Bullish CHoCH and price mitigates bearish FVG.
Short: Bearish CHoCH and price mitigates bullish FVG.
Exit Long: Price mitigates bearish order block.
Exit Short: Price mitigates bullish order block.
Users can achieve a wide variety of results by using external indicators as an input source for entries and exits, combining the best from price action and technical indicators. We might for example be interested in exiting a position when the RSI oscillator is overbought or oversold.

Price Action Pattern Breakout Strategy: Wedge,Triangle,ChannelIntroducing the Price Action Pattern Breakout Strategy: Wedge,Triangle,Channel 💹🚀
The "Price Action Pattern Breakout Strategy: Wedge, Triangle, Channel" is a dynamic and automated trading strategy that excels in recognizing and capitalizing on breakout opportunities within the realm of powerful price action patterns. It is finely tuned to achieve exceptional precision in detecting three distinct pattern types: Wedge, Triangle, and Channel. This diversity equips you to confidently navigate a wide range of market scenarios and opportunities.
This strategy automates trade entries and exits upon confirmed pattern breakouts, this eliminates human errors in correctly recognizing patterns and prevents emotional decisions. This strategy is designed to work across different time frames, making it suitable for both short-term and long-term traders. Whether you're a day trader, swing trader, or investor, this strategy provides the flexibility you need to thrive in diverse market conditions.
💎 How it Works:
▶️ In this strategy, three price action patterns have been utilized, one of which is the "Wedge" pattern. The Wedge pattern has consistently demonstrated a high level of credibility, typically resulting in sharp and rapid price movements following a confirmed breakout from this pattern. This characteristic makes the Wedge pattern highly noteworthy in our strategy. The second pattern is the "Triangle" pattern, which, depending on its formation, whether ascending or descending, can indicate a strong continuation or reversal of the trend. The last pattern is the "Channel" pattern. The reason for using the Channel pattern is its versatility in various market conditions and its tendency to produce reliable results.
In the snapshot below, you can observe the types of patterns that this strategy is capable of identifying at a glance:
▶️ This strategy employs two types of targeting systems: Fixed Targets and Trailing Targets.
Fixed Targets is the default targeting system of the strategy, incorporating two primary targets: TP1 (Target Point 1) and TP2 (Target Point 2). These targets are thoughtfully adjusted in alignment with specific rules for each pattern. With Fixed Targets, you have the flexibility to designate the position size percentage for your exits at TP1 and TP2. For instance, should you opt to allocate 60% of your position size to TP1, as soon as the price triggers the first take profit level, 60% of your initial position is gracefully closed, leaving the remaining 40% to exit the trade upon reaching TP2.
Trailing Targets represent the strategy's alternative targeting system. With this system, the trailing stop becomes active once the price reaches the specified trigger point. The strategy then exits the trade based on the defined offset percentage and price retracement from the trailing limit.
▶️ This strategy relies on a single type of stop loss, determined by previous pivot points and adjusted based on the trade's direction, whether long or short, placing the stop loss above or below the prior pivot. This stop loss approach has demonstrated reliability when used alongside price action patterns.
In addition to this fixed stop loss, you can specify a percentage buffer, offering protection against potential stop hunting due to market fluctuations. This buffer helps protect your positions from sudden price swings. For example, selecting a 1% buffer means your stop loss will be positioned 1% higher or lower concerning the last pivot, depending on your trade's direction. This added layer of security ensures your trades remain resilient and less vulnerable to market volatility.
▶️ A practical feature of this strategy is the "Risk-Free" option. Once activated, it continuously monitors price movements, and as soon as the price progresses in the trade's direction and surpasses the designated Risk-Free Trigger Point in percentage, the stop loss is dynamically shifted from its initial position to the entry price, effectively making the trade "risk-free." This means that if the trade doesn't go as expected, we exit at the entry point, incurring neither profit nor loss from the trade.
Additionally, you have the flexibility to fine-tune the modified stop loss, positioning it slightly above or below the entry price through the configuration of a specified percentage. This allows for effective consideration of commission fees in your trading strategy.
▶️ Risk management is a crucial concept in trading, playing a significant role in a trader's long-term success. This strategy introduces a unique feature called "Fixed Loss Position Sizing", where upon activation, you can limit the risk exposure to a specified percentage of your capital per trade. Set your preferred risk percentage along with the intended leverage. The strategy independently considers your available capital and designated leverage, determining the position size before executing any trade.
In the case of a stop loss, your loss is limited to the specified risk percentage. For instance, with a $1000 account and a 1% risk set, the strategy adjusts each trade's size to ensure a maximum loss of $10 if the stop loss is triggered. Enabling this feature will ensure disciplined risk management, aligning potential losses precisely with your predetermined risk percentage, contingent upon your total available capital.
▶️ Another feature of this strategy is a sophisticated mechanism called "Loss Compensation". When enabled, Loss Compensation dynamically adjusts the position size after a loss, aiming to recover from previous losses in subsequent trades. This adaptive mechanism continually modifies the position size to mitigate the impact of consecutive losses until reaching a user-defined limit for consecutive loss compensations.
The feature's configurability allows users to set the maximum number of consecutive losses to compensate for and also includes an option to factor in trading fees from prior trades into the compensation calculation. Loss Compensation operates in conjunction with the 'Fixed Loss Position Sizing' setting, ensuring that once losses are sufficiently compensated, subsequent entries revert to the predefined configurations within the 'Fixed Loss Position Sizing' settings.
This advanced tool ensures a stable risk management approach by changing trade sizes dynamically according to past results during consecutive loss periods.
▶️ This strategy incorporates a feature known as the "Counter-Pattern Breakout", altering its approach to wedge, triangle, and channel pattern breakouts. Normally, the strategy relies on standard pattern signals to determine whether to enter long or short positions based on breakout directions.
For example, in an ascending channel or a rising wedge pattern, the strategy typically seeks a short position opportunity upon a confirmed breakout in the lower line, and breakouts from the upper line are disregarded by the strategy. But with this feature enabled, strategy disregards the conventional pattern signals, seizing breakouts from upper or lower lines to open corresponding positions. For instance, in the ascending channel or the rising wedge pattern example, the strategy might enter a long position if the upper line breaks or a short position if the lower line breaks.
This introduces a more adaptive and opportunistic trading style, allowing you to capitalize on price movements, irrespective of the typical signal direction indicated by the pattern.
▶️ This strategy is fully compatible with third-party trading bots, allowing for easy connectivity to popular trading platforms. By leveraging the TradingView webhook functionality, you can effortlessly link the strategy to your preferred bot and receive accurate signals for position entry and exit. The strategy provides all the necessary alert message fields, ensuring a smooth and user-friendly trading experience. With this integration, you can automate the execution of trades, saving time and effort while enjoying the benefits of this powerful strategy.
⚙️ How to Use & Configure User Settings:
To fully utilize the "Price Action Pattern Breakout Strategy: Wedge, Triangle, Channel," it's essential to consider and comprehend the following steps. They play a crucial role in enhancing its functionality and achieving its utmost potential outcomes:
1. General Strategy Settings:
Enable Dark Mode if using a dark TradingView theme for improved chart visibility.
Select the Strategy's Trade Direction: Long, Short, or Both.
Choose Pattern Recognition Accuracy: High for precise recognition but fewer positions, Low for more positions with slightly less accuracy.
Enable 'Prevent New Entry on Opposite Signal While In Position' to avoid new trades if the opposite signal occurs.
Switch to Indicator Mode if solely using the strategy as an indicator or in combination with other strategies.
2. Pattern and Pivot Configuration:
Consider configuring the Number of Patterns and Pivot Lookback Lengths. Here, you can personalize the pivot lookback lengths for wedge, triangle, and channel patterns across eight different settings on your chart. For lower time frames, consider larger lengths to reduce chart noise. Alternatively, to maintain clarity on your chart, you can disable multiple patterns with different lengths while ensuring at least one pattern remains enabled.
Note that enabling more patterns doesn't always equate to increased potential profit. Sometimes, fewer patterns result in greater profit potential, and vice versa. Experiment with lengths and the number of patterns to determine the most profitable and optimal outcome for your trading symbol and timeframe.
3. Targeting System Selection:
Choose between 'Fixed Targets' or 'Trailing Targets' for your targeting system.
'Fixed Targets' is the default setting, operational when 'Trailing Targets' are turned off.
Set the TP1 Position Size as a percentage, defining the size for TP1, and the rest exits at TP2.
Optionally activate 'Skip Entry if TP1 is Passed' to bypass entering positions if the price has exceeded TP1.
Alternatively, opt for the 'Trailing Target' for dynamic exits based on trigger points and offsets. Note that this option disables fixed targets.
4. Stop Loss Configuration:
Determine the number of candles to consider for stop loss placement based on the last pivot.
Optionally add a percentage to the stop loss to create a buffer against market fluctuations, guarding your positions from sudden price swings.
5. Risk Management Configuration:
You can activate the 'Risk-Free' feature, making your trades risk-free by moving the stop loss to the entry price upon reaching a specified trigger point.
You have the possibility to enable 'Fixed Loss Position Sizing' to limit risk to a percentage of total capital per trade, ensuring prudent risk management.
You can employ 'Use Real-Time Balance for Each Entry' to precisely calculate fixed loss position sizing according to the real-time balance for every entry.
The 'Loss Compensation' feature can be activated to automatically adjust trade sizes during consecutive losses and compensate for prior incurred losses.
Loss compensation continues adjusting trade sizes until it reaches the defined limit of consecutive losses specified in the 'Maximum Consecutive Losses To Compensate' field.
You can factor in commission fees by specifying a percentage in the 'Include Trading Fees in Compensation (%)' field, providing an option for more accurate loss compensation calculations.
You have the option to enable 'Limit Compensation to Real-Time Balance' to prevent consecutive loss compensation from exceeding your current real-time account balance.
It's important to note that for the 'Loss Compensation' feature to operate, the 'Fixed Loss Position Sizing' must be enabled.
6. Counter-Pattern Breakout Configuration:
In this section you have the option to enable the "Counter-Pattern Breakout" feature to adjust the strategy's approach to wedge, triangle, and channel pattern breakouts. Once enabled, the strategy disregards traditional pattern signals and capitalizes on breakouts from either the upper or lower lines, initiating corresponding positions accordingly.
Choose between 'Fixed Target' or 'Trailing Target' for your targeting system. If you opt for the 'Fixed Target', set a specific target point as a percentage, serving as the default target for counter-pattern breakouts. Alternatively, choose the 'Trailing Target' for dynamic exits based on trigger points and offsets. Do keep in mind that selecting the 'Trailing Target' option disables the fixed target setting.
Keep in mind that for standard, non-counter-pattern breakouts, the target point settings in their respective sections remain applicable, distinct from the settings configured for targeting within this section.
Note that the stop loss configurations are shared across standard pattern and counter-pattern breakouts and can be adjusted within the stop loss section.
7. Info Tables:
In the info tables section, you can show or hide different tables on the charts. This includes the backtest table, the current balance table displaying available funds, and a table showcasing Maximum Consecutive Wins or Losses. Choose which to display according to your preferences and specific needs.
8.Date & Time Range Filter:
Utilize the Date & Time Range filter feature to precisely select a start and end date, including time, to filter data within the chosen range.
When connecting this strategy to a trading bot for automated trades, ensure to set the start date and time to the intended initiation moment to avoid undesired outcomes as this directly affects the real-time balance calculations of the strategy.
8. Integration with Third-Party Bots:
To automate trading, leverage the strategy's compatibility with third-party trading bots. Seamlessly integrate the strategy into well-known trading platforms by using alert message fields to input commands from third-party trading bots, enabling automated trade execution for both long and short positions.

Ironman [Decentrader]Ironman
What is it? how it does it? And how to use it:
i) Ironman is a multifaceted strategy builder, which uses coloured candles which represent certain customisable inputs being in confluence with one another and the set scenario.
ii) There are 7 customised technical indicators which can be input as a basis for the analytical review.
iii) Determine a primary indicator which dictates a bullish or bearish trend (and colour) and then optionally add up to 6 other indicators to be required to be in confluence which adds another colour to be represented.
An example might be two moving averages crossing as the main trend determination. The primary determinant is dictated as the trend being “bullish or bearish” and the added confluence adds an additional layer being “very bullish or very bearish”
iv) Users select which conditions they wish to enter and exit trades on using the Bullish / Very Bullish and Bearish / Very Bearish settings. This can be combined with other timeframes.
v) The selected inputs for each indicator will show in a table contained in the bottom right-hand corner. Active indicators within the system will be highlighted.
vi) Ironman is built to include various take profit and stop loss options such as trailing stops, and fixed percentage targets which can be included in the strategy. Different timeframes can be used to determine the stop if users wish to do so.
vii) Users can require that there is also confluence with a differing time period or choose long and short-only options which can be dictated independently or based upon filtering criteria using moving averages.
viii) Using the strategy settings, users are also able to choose backtesting periods.
ix) Position label settings allow users to show various backtesting options such as profit by position, total backtesting results and results for the active position.
x) Ironman enables users to automate trading easily using the input boxes under Alert messages which also allows connection to a third party which can conduct execution. Always make sure to thoroughly test the strategy if it is being automated.
xi) To get the best out of Ironman, build up a strategy for the timeframe and asset you are looking at and back-test outcomes as variables are layered in. Ensure to backtest over a suitable length of time.
xii) When optimising input variables, it can sometimes visually assist in having the underlying inputs on the screen via the standard indicators.
xiii) There are many boxes of information in the input variables, which explain how to use each part. Users can also add features such as a marker showing on the chart where all indicators are bullish/bearish, or where RSI is overbought / over sold.
xiv) Users can further customise the style of the tool under the style tab in the indicator settings.
Captain Backtest Model [TFO]Created by @imjesstwoone and @mickey1984, this trade model attempts to capture the expansion from the 10:00-14:00 EST 4h candle using just 3 simple steps. All of the information presented in this description has been outlined by its creators, all I did was translate it to Pine Script. All core settings of the trade model may be edited so that users can test several variations, however this description will cover its default, intended behavior using NQ 5m as an example.
Step 1 is to identify our Price Range. In this case, we are concerned with the highest high and the lowest low created from 6:00-10:00 EST.
Step 2 is to wait for either the high or low of said range to be taken out. Whichever side gets taken first determines the long/short bias for the remainder of the Trade Window (i.e. if price takes the range high, bias is long, and vice versa). Bias must be determined by 11:15 EST, otherwise no trades will be taken. This filter is intended to weed out "choppy" trading days.
Step 3 is to wait for a retracement and enter with a close through the previous candle's high (if long biased) or low (if short biased). There are a couple toggleable criteria that we use to define a retracement; one is checking for opposite close candles that indicate a pullback; another is checking if price took the previous candle's low (if long biased) or high (if short biased).
This trade model was initially tested for index futures, particularly ES and NQ, using a 5m chart, however this indicator allows us to backtest any symbol on any timeframe. Creators @imjesstwoone and @mickey1984 specified a 5 point stop loss on ES and a 25 point stop loss on NQ with their testing.
I've personally found some success in backtesting NQ 5m using a 25 point stop loss and 75 point profit target (3:1 R). Enabling the Use Fixed R:R parameter will ensure that these stops and targets are utilized, otherwise it will enter and hold the position until the close of the Trade Window.
Indian NIFTY Correlation Daytrade/Swing StrategyINTRODUCTION :
This is a daytrading/swing strategy designed mainly for indian market where internally has been adapted to NIFTY market and as well using for internal calculations the values of the candles from NIFTY asset.
With it we search to use with the most correlated asset from the indian market.
For this example I choosed BANKNIFTY
STRATEGY:
The strategy initially uses as candle values the data from the NIFTY asset.
With them I am dividing the work into two calculation parts such as :
-For first part logic, I am doing calculations regarding the volatility of NIFTY, where I initially take into consideration INDIAVIX to have an idea of the expected implied volatility of NIFTY asset and then I compare it with different tools such as ATR, BB and Percentile location of the volatility.
Based on all these factors I take into account the location of the volatility which is atm and if there is a possibility of a strong movement(trend) or sidemarket situation.
-Once I am done with the values of the volatility, the next process in the script logic is to start looking into the trend.
For it I am using different tools such as volume checker, support and resistence key points, pivot points, price actions patterns and different moving averages.
-Risk management part : once we are done with calculation for the entry, the next part is to have an idea where to exit. In this case I am making use of a dynamic risk management which is compressed from multiple ideas such as : we can exit if there were a big gap on the next day in our initial direction, we can also exit based of an internal daily ATR calculation value(we use initially 15min timeframe chart) and lastly if we are around some key points like support/resistence or other different chart patterns like double top, double bot and so on.
CASE EXAMPLE:
As I said before we are initially using for calculation the NIFTY chart with 15min timeframe. With it we can apply to any indian etf,stocks,future. All the assets are going to have the same time of entry and the same time of exit(we get this from NIFTY) and we plot it on the chart we are using, so its key point to look for assets which have a min 75-80% correlation with NIFTY. For this example I used BANKNIFTY chart.
So a type of entry would be this way
Lets assume NIFTY50 is on 19.000 level
INDIAVIX level is currently at 11 which can be translated : 11 / sqrt(250)
So 11 means that on a yearly base we expect the asset to move 11% upwards or downwards
and in a year we have aprox 250 days. So we divide the 11 by sqrt of 250 to get an idea of a daily expected move from the implied volatility of india VIX
11/15.87 = +-0.69%
So INDIAVIX tells us that the values for today nifty is 19000+0,69% and 19000-0.69%
After that I am looking into the daily ATR, and I see that the expected is around 0.8% and is ascending over the last 2 weeks.
Lastly I am looking at the percentile which is currently the volatility on both ATR and INDIAVIX, and I get a value of 90th percentile.
With this my biased is that we are going to expect a short trend, but i cant confirm on the volatility alone so next step is start looking into technical analysis.
I look at volume and is increasing, I look at different price actions paterns and pivots and I see a lower low and a lower high (a descending pattern).
I also see the price is below the key MA like SMA50/100/200, VWAP and so on.
With all of this I get more confirmation that the asset is in a short trend.
Internally once a certain specific % of confirmation from all the logics is achieved, it will trigger a long/short entry, so in this case lets assume we have 80% of our indicators pointing to the short, is going to enter a short.
Now for a long scenario the scene would be , indiavix is around 9,5, ATR is descending. We are around 40th percentile of the volatility.
Our asset is above multiple moving averages, vwap , etc
We have an increasing volume towards bullish side.
And so on( overall 75% of our indicators are pointing towards the long side)
Now for the exit, since we are dealing with a daytrade/swing mentality, short on average we keep the trade open for a less period of time than long ( 19 bars of 15min candles, compared to 57 bars of 15min for long) , so most of the times for short we are going to exit next day and if the trend is still in our favour we re enter the trade.
For long we can stay much more time, sometimes even weeks and we exit mainly when the % of confirmation of indicators point out a reversal/short confirmation fo a big pice action pattern.
STRATEGY RESULTS
For strategy analysis I have used BANKNIFTY NSE with deep history to get access to data from 2011 until present( giving more than 2500 trades) .
For inputs I am using 0.02% comission total ( the comission applied from ZERODHA indian exchange is close to 0.0175% total) so I used it a bit higher in order to take into account some slippages.
For capital THE REASON I USED 100% of the capital allocation is to make a proper comparison with the buy an hold from the same period
Lets assume we had an account of 1M ruppes initially in 2011, we start using 100% of it and then the new values automatically compounded with the new profits and losses so directly compare with 1M of rupees in shares on BANKNIFTY ETFs bought in 2011(buy n hold) until present day.

[Round Numbers] Signal Clean Up Analysis with Backtest (TSO)Round Numbers NEW GEN indicator!
===========================================================================
===========================================================================
This is a full-cycle trading system indicator - it will show and alert each step of the trade from open to close. The algorithm here uses Round Numbers for generating signals, TP (Take Profit) and SL (Stop Loss) levels. Round numbers play big role in trading and can easily become strong support and resistance levels where price can bounce and go the opposite way or go through with a very nice run afterwards.
In addition there is a chained (NOTE: You can select several or ALL of the features, this is not limited to either one) signal cleanup and analysis approach with scheduling and alerting capabilities. Works with most popular timeframes: 1M, 3M, 5M, 15M, 30M, 1H, 4H, D.
NOTE: Every action of the trade is calculated on a confirmed closed candle bar state (barstate.isconfirmed), so the indicator will never repaint!
NOTE: At position open - there will be calculated Take-Profit and Stop-Loss targets, however each target is considered hit, when candle bar closes breaking that target, so Take-Profit and Stop-Loss when hit will slightly differ then what you see at trade/position open.
===========================================================================
===========================================================================
Round Numbers up|down unit setting and overall explanation
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Round Number up|down unit: is the distance between round numbers on the chart. Since these round number levels are also used by the algorithm to open/close trades, it is important to set this setting to a logical number, which will correspond to an average price movement of the instrument.
Here are some examples for a few popular instruments on what will the default 1 round number unit correspond to and what would be suggested:
BTCUSD > $1 (this won't work for Bitcoin, try at least $100 - 100units)
SPY: > $1 (one of the best settings for SPY or QQQ, 50cents shows good results as well - 0.5units)
FOREX (all major pairs): > 10PIPs (that may be a bit small, unless scalping, try 50PIPs - 5units)

>>> Trading Systems: 1) "Open Until Closed by TP or SL": the signal will only open a trade if no trades are currently open/trunning, a trade can only be closed by Take Profit, Stop Loss or End of Day close (if turned on) | 2) "Open Until Closed by TP or SL + OCA": Same as 1), but if there is an opposite signal to the trade which is currently open > it will immediately be closed with new trade open or End of Day close (if turned on) | 3) "OCA (no TP or SL)": There are is Take Profit or Stop Loss, only an opposite signal will close current trade and open an opposite one or End of Day close (if turned on).
>>> Turn On/Off: Current Position SL + Opposite Position Open Signal on the same closing candle bar (If current trade hits Stop-Loss and at that same closing candle bar there is a signal for an opposite direction trade > indicator will close current position as Stop-Loss and immediately open an opposite position). NOTE: With this option turned on, there will be more trades, but not necessarily better results, since after Stop-Loss is hit, it may make sense to wait a little before opening an opposite trade, even if it matches the condition at the same time when Stop-Loss is hit, but sometimes it shows great results, so this setting/feature is included. NOTE: This setting only will work/make sense with TP and SL style/behavior both be set to "Fully Closed Candle"!
>>> Turn On/Off: Turn On/Off: Current Position REGULAR SL | Only the SL + Opposite Position Open will trigger if turned on, IF NOT - THERE WILL BE NO STOP-LOSS AT ALL!!! NOTE: It is very dangerous to trade without Stop-Loss!
>>>>> Signal Candle Bar consuming Take-Profits - position/trade signal candle bar is big enough to "consume"/close ahead the first TP setting > the signal can either be skipped, or all Take-Profit areas pushed ahead using smart formula)
>>>>> MULTIPROFIT | TP (Take-Profit) System: 1) Static – Once the trade is open, all Take-Profit target(s) are immediately calculated and set for the trade > once the target(s) is hit > trade will be partially closed (if candle bar closes beyond several Take-Profit targets > trade will be reduced accordingly to the amount of how many Take-Profit targets were hit) ||| 2) Dynamic – Once the trade is open, only the 1st Take-Profit target is calculated, once the 1st Take-Profit is hit > next Take-Profit distance is calculated based on the distance from trade Entry to where 1st Take-Profit was taken, once 2nd Take-Profit is taken > 3rd Take-Profit is calculated per same logic, these are good for price momentum as with price speeding up – profits increase as well!
>>>>> MULTIPROFIT: SL (stop loss) System | Static: SL is set at position open and remains such; Dynamic: Once ANY TP is taken > SL will be moved to Entry; Trailing: SL will be moved along the position (smart trailing stop-loss), at TP1 taken > SL moves to Entry, at TP2 taken > SL moves to TP1, at TP3 taken > SL moves to TP2 and so on.
>>>>> # of TPs (number of take profit targets): Just like it is named, this is where you select the number of Take-Profit targets for your trading system (NOTE: If "OCA (no TP or SL)" Trading System is selected, this setting won’t do anything, since there are no TP or SLs for that system).
>>>>> TP(s) offset: This is a special feature for all Take-Profit targets, where you can turn on a customizable offset, so that if the price is almost hitting the Take-Profit target, but never actually touches it > you will capture it. This is good to use with HHLL (Highest High Lowest Low), which is pretty much a Support/Resistance as often the price will nearly touch these strong areas and turn around…

Dynamic/Static/Trailing Take-Profit and Stop-Loss visual examples:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) Fully Static Take-Profit and Stop-Loss
This one is a fully static setup for both Take-Profit and Stop-Loss, you can also observe how trade is closed right before the Power Hour (trade can be closed right before Power Hour or right before Market Closes or left overnight as desired).
2) Static/Dynamic, Static Take-Profit and Dynamic Stop-Loss
You can see a static Take-Profit set at position open, while Stop-Loss moves to Entry once TP1 target is taken.
3) Static/Trailing, Static Take-Profit and Trailing Stop-Loss
In here with each Take-Profit taken, Stop-Loss moves along the trade to previous Take-Profit level, you can notice how stop-loss literally follows the trade and reduces the potential loss.
4) Dynamic/Trailing, Dynamic Take-Profit and Trailing Stop-Loss
See how Take-Profit distances increase with price momentum. Just like in previous example - Trailing Stop-Loss is following the trade and reducing the riks.

Signal Analysis and Cleanup Settings
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>>>> Candle Analysis | Candle Color signal confirmation: If closed candle bar color does not match the signal direction > no trade will be open.
>>>>> Candle Analysis | Skip opposite candle signals: If closed candle bar color will match the signal direction, but candle structure will be opposite (for example: bearish green hammer, long high stick on top of a small green square) > no trade will be open.
>>>>> Candle Analysis | Skip doji candle signals: If closed candle bar will be the uncertain doji > no trade will be open.
>>>>> Divergence/Oscillator Analysis | EWO (Elliot Wave Oscillator) signal confirmation: LONG will only be open if at signal, EWO is green or will be at bullish slope (you can select which setting you desire), SHORT if EWO is red or will be at bearish slope.
>>>>> Divergence/Oscillator Analysis | VWAP signal confirmation: LONG will only be open if at signal, the price will be above VWAP, SHORT if below.
>>>>> Divergence/Oscillator Analysis | Moving Average signal confirmation: LONG will only be open if at signal, the price will be above selected Moving Average, SHORT if below.
>>>>> Divergence/Oscillator Analysis | ATR signal confirmation: LONG will only be open if at signal, the price will be above ATR, SHORT if below.

TP System - VERY IMPORTANT INFO!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"TP PERCENTAGE" - amount by which current trade/position needs to be reduced/partially closed/sold.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TP System: Dynamic
"TP PERCENTAGE" - will always be the same amount (trade/position size divided by the # of take-profit(TP) targets) and percentage to be closed will always be of the ORIGINAL trade/position.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TP System: Static
"TP PERCENTAGE" - will always be the same amount IF take-profit(TP) targets are hit 1-by-1 (TP1 > TP2 > TP3 > TP4 > TP5), otherwise it will vary and unless it is a 1st take-profit(TP1), the REMAINING trade/position size will always be smaller than original and therefore the percentage to be closed will always be of the REMAINING trade/position and NOT the original one!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"TP PERCENTAGE" CheatSheet (these are the only percentages you may see)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
TP PERCENTAGE---Close/Sell Amount-------------Example (trade size: 50 stocks)
20%-------------trade size * 0.2--------------50 * 0.2 = 10 stocks
25%-------------trade size * 0.25-------------50 * 0.25 = 12.5(~13) stocks
34%-------------trade size * 0.34-------------50 * 0.34 = 17 stocks
40%-------------trade size * 0.4--------------50 * 0.4 = 20 stocks
50%-------------trade size * 0.5--------------50 * 0.5 = 25 stocks
60%-------------trade size * 0.6--------------50 * 0.6 = 30 stocks
66%-------------trade size * 0.66-------------50 * 0.66 = 33 stocks
75%-------------trade size * 0.75-------------50 * 0.75 = 37.5(~38) stocks
80%-------------trade size * 0.8--------------50 * 0.8 = 40 stocks
100%------------trade size--------------------50 = 50 stocks
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
If for any reason a portion of the current/remaining trade closed at such occurrence was slightly wrong, it is not an issue. Such occurrences are rare and with slight difference in partial TP closed is not significant to overall performance of our algorithms.

Improved EMA & CDC Trailing Stop StrategyImproved EMA & CDC Trailing Stop Strategy
Objective: This strategy seeks to exploit potential trend reversals or continuations using Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) and a trailing stop based on the Chande Dynamic Convergence Divergence (CDC) ATR method.
Components:
Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs):
60-period EMA (Blue Line): Faster-moving average that reacts more quickly to price changes.
90-period EMA (Red Line): Slower-moving average that provides a smoother indication of long-term price direction.
MACD Indicator:
Utilized to confirm the trend direction. When the MACD line is above its signal line, it may indicate a bullish trend. Conversely, when the MACD line is below its signal line, it may indicate a bearish trend.
CDC Trailing Stop ATR:
Used to set dynamic stop-loss levels that adjust with market volatility. This stop is based on the Average True Range (ATR) with a user-defined multiplier, providing the strategy with a flexible way to protect against adverse price movements.
Profit Targets:
Based on a multiple of the ATR, this sets an objective level at which to take profits, ensuring gains are captured while potentially still leaving room for further profitable movement.
Trading Rules:
Entry:
Long (Buy) Entry Conditions:
Price is above the 60-period EMA.
The 60-period EMA is above the 90-period EMA.
The MACD line is above its signal line.
Price is above the calculated CDC Trailing Stop ATR level.
Short (Sell) Entry Conditions:
Price is below the 60-period EMA.
The 60-period EMA is below the 90-period EMA.
The MACD line is below its signal line.
Price is below the calculated CDC Trailing Stop ATR level.
Exit:
Long (Buy) Exit Conditions:
Price reaches the predetermined profit target based on the ATR.
Price drops below the CDC Trailing Stop ATR level.
Short (Sell) Exit Conditions:
Price reaches the predetermined profit target based on the ATR.
Price rises above the CDC Trailing Stop ATR level.
Visualization:
The strategy displays the 60-period and 90-period EMAs on the chart.
The CDC Trailing Stop ATR levels for both long and short trades are also plotted for clarity.
The MACD Histogram is shown to visualize the difference between the MACD line and its signal line.
Recommendations: Before deploying this strategy, traders should backtest it across various historical data sets and market conditions. Regularly reviewing and potentially adjusting the strategy is recommended as market dynamics evolve.
Bollinger Bands & Fibonacci StrategyThe Bollinger Bands & Fibonacci Strategy is a powerful technical analysis trading strategy designed to identify potential entry and exit points in financial markets. This strategy combines two widely used indicators, Bollinger Bands and Fibonacci retracement levels, to assist traders in making informed trading decisions.
Key Features:
Bollinger Bands: This strategy utilizes Bollinger Bands, a volatility-based indicator that consists of an upper band, a lower band, and a middle (basis) line. Bollinger Bands help traders visualize price volatility and potential reversal points.
Fibonacci Retracement Levels: Fibonacci retracement levels are essential tools for identifying potential support and resistance levels in price charts. This strategy incorporates Fibonacci retracement levels, including the 0% and 100% levels, to aid in pinpointing key price levels.
Long and Short Signals: The strategy generates long (buy) and short (sell) signals based on specific conditions derived from Bollinger Bands and Fibonacci levels. Long signals are generated when price crosses above the upper Bollinger Band and when the price is above the Fibonacci low level. Short signals are generated when price crosses below the lower Bollinger Band and when the price is below the Fibonacci high level.
Position Management: To prevent multiple concurrent positions of the same type (long or short), the strategy employs position management logic. It tracks open positions and ensures that only one position type is active at a time.
Exit Conditions: The strategy includes customizable exit conditions to manage and close open positions. Traders can fine-tune exit criteria to align with their risk management and profit-taking strategies.
User-Friendly: This strategy script is user-friendly and can be easily integrated into the TradingView platform, allowing traders to apply it to various financial instruments and timeframes.
Usage:
Traders and investors can apply the Bollinger Bands & Fibonacci Strategy to a wide range of financial markets, including stocks, forex, commodities, and cryptocurrencies. It can be adapted to different timeframes to suit various trading styles, from day trading to swing trading.
Disclaimer:
Trading carries inherent risks, and this strategy is no exception. It is essential to use proper risk management techniques, including stop-loss orders, and thoroughly backtest the strategy on historical data before implementing it in live trading.
The Bollinger Bands & Fibonacci Strategy is a valuable tool for technical traders seeking well-defined entry and exit points based on robust indicators. It can serve as a foundation for traders to build and customize their trading strategies according to their individual preferences and risk tolerance.

Trend Confirmation StrategyThe profitability and uniqueness of a trading strategy depend on various factors including market conditions, risk management, and the strategy's ability to capitalize on price movements. I'll describe the strategy provided and highlight its potential benefits and differences compared to other strategies:
Strategy Overview:
The provided strategy combines three technical indicators: Supertrend, MACD, and VWAP. It aims to identify potential entry and exit points by confirming trend direction and considering the proximity to the VWAP level. The strategy also incorporates stop-loss and take-profit mechanisms, as well as a trailing stop.
Unique Aspects and Potential Benefits:
Trend Confirmation: The strategy uses both Supertrend and MACD to confirm the trend direction. This dual confirmation can increase the likelihood of accurate trend identification and filter out false signals.
VWAP Confirmation: The strategy considers the proximity of the price to the VWAP level. This dynamic level can act as a support or resistance and provide additional context for entry decisions.
Adaptive Stop Loss: The strategy sets a stop-loss range, which helps provide some tolerance for minor price fluctuations. This adaptive approach considers market volatility and helps prevent premature stop-loss triggers.
Trailing Stop: The strategy incorporates a trailing stop mechanism to lock in profits as the trade moves in the desired direction. This can potentially enhance profitability during strong trends.
Partial Profit Booking: While not explicitly implemented in the provided code, you could consider booking partial profits when the MACD shows a crossover in the opposite direction. This aspect could help secure gains while still keeping exposure to potential further price movements.
Key Differences from Other Strategies:
Dual Indicator Confirmation: The combination of Supertrend and MACD for trend confirmation is a unique aspect of this strategy. It adds an extra layer of filtering to enhance the accuracy of entry signals.
Dynamic VWAP: Incorporating the VWAP level into the decision-making process adds a dynamic element to the strategy. VWAP is often used by institutional traders, and its inclusion can provide insights into the market sentiment.
Adaptive Stop Loss and Trailing: The strategy's use of an adaptive stop-loss range and a trailing stop can help manage risk and protect profits more effectively during changing market conditions.
Partial Profit Booking: The suggestion to consider partial profit booking upon MACD crossovers in the opposite direction is a practical approach to secure gains while staying in the trade.
Caution and Considerations:
Backtesting: Before deploying any strategy in real trading, it's crucial to thoroughly backtest it on historical data to understand its performance under various market conditions.
Risk Management: While the strategy has built-in risk management mechanisms, it's essential to carefully manage position sizes and overall portfolio risk.
Market Conditions: No strategy works well in all market conditions. It's important to be flexible and adjust the strategy or refrain from trading during particularly volatile or unpredictable periods.
Continuous Monitoring: Even though the strategy includes automated components, continuous monitoring of the trades and market conditions is necessary.
Adaptability: Markets can change over time. Traders need to be prepared to adapt the strategy as necessary to stay aligned with evolving market dynamics.
Elliott Wave with Supertrend Exit - Strategy [presentTrading]## Introduction and How it is Different
The Elliott Wave with Supertrend Exit provides automated detection and validation of Elliott Wave patterns for algorithmic trading. It is designed to objectively identify high-probability wave formations and signal entries based on confirmed impulsive and corrective patterns.
* The Elliott part is mostly referenced from Elliott Wave by @LuxAlgo
Key advantages compared to discretionary Elliott Wave analysis:
- Wave Labeling and Counting: The strategy programmatically identifies swing pivot highs/lows with the Zigzag indicator and analyzes the waves between them. It labels the potential impulsive and corrective patterns as they form. This removes the subjectivity of manual wave counting.
- Pattern Validation: A rules-based engine confirms valid impulsive and corrective patterns by checking relative size relationships and fib ratios. Only confirmed wave counts are plotted and traded.
- Objective Entry Signals: Trades are entered systematically on the start of new impulsive waves in the direction of the trend. Pattern failures invalidate setups and stop out positions.
- Automated Trade Management: The strategy defines specific rules for profit targets at fib extensions, trailing stops at swing points, and exits on Supertrend reversals. This automates the entire trade lifecycle.
- Adaptability: The waveform recognition engine can be tuned by adjusting parameters like Zigzag depth and Supertrend settings. It adapts to evolving market conditions.
ETH 1hr chart
In summary, the strategy brings automation, objectivity and adaptability to Elliott Wave trading - removing subjective interpretation errors and emotional trading biases. It implements a rules-based, algorithmic approach for systematically trading Elliott Wave patterns across markets and timeframes.
## Trading Logic and Rules
The strategy follows specific trading rules based on the detected and validated Elliott Wave patterns.
Entry Rules
- Long entry when a new impulsive bullish (5-wave) pattern forms
- Short entry when a new impulsive bearish (5-wave) pattern forms
The key is entering on the start of a new potential trend wave rather than chasing.
Exit Rules
- Invalidation of wave pattern stops out the trade
- Close long trades on Supertrend downturn
- Close short trades on Supertrend upturn
- Use a stop loss of 10% of entry price (configurable)
Trade Management
- Scale out partial profits at Fibonacci levels
- Move stop to breakeven when price reaches 1.618 extension
- Trail stops below key swing points
- Target exits at next Fibonacci projection level
Risk Management
- Use stop losses on all trades
- Trade only highest probability setups
- Size positions according to chart timeframe
- Avoid overtrading when no clear patterns emerge
## Strategy - How it Works
The core logic follows these steps:
1. Find swing highs/lows with Zigzag indicator
2. Analyze pivot points to detect impulsive 5-wave patterns:
- Waves 1, 3, and 5 should not overlap
- Waves 3 and 5 must be longer than wave 1
- Confirm relative size relationships between waves
3. Validate corrective 3-wave patterns:
- Look for overlapping, choppy waves that retrace the prior impulsive wave
4. Plot validated waves and Fibonacci retracement levels
5. Signal entries when a new impulsive wave pattern forms
6. Manage exits based on pattern failures and Supertrend reversals
Impulsive Wave Validation
The strategy checks relative size relationships to confirm valid impulsive waves.
For uptrends, it ensures:
```
Copy code- Wave 3 is longer than wave 1
- Wave 5 is longer than wave 2
- Waves do not overlap
```
Corrective Wave Validation
The strategy identifies overlapping corrective patterns that retrace the prior impulsive wave within Fibonacci levels.
Pattern Failure Invalidation
If waves fail validation tests, the strategy invalidates the pattern and stops signaling trades.
## Trade Direction
The strategy detects impulsive and corrective patterns in both uptrends and downtrends. Entries are signaled in the direction of the validated wave pattern.
## Usage
- Use on charts showing clear Elliott Wave patterns
- Start with daily or weekly timeframes to gauge overall trend
- Optimize Zigzag and Supertrend settings as needed
- Consider combining with other indicators for confirmation
## Default Settings
- Zigzag Length: 4 bars
- Supertrend Length: 10 bars
- Supertrend Multiplier: 3
- Stop Loss: 10% of entry price
- Trading Direction: Both
TASC 2023.09 The Weekly Factor█ OVERVIEW
TASC's September 2023 edition of Traders' Tips features an article written by Andrea Unger titled “The Weekly Factor", discussing the application of price patterns as filters for trade entries. This script implements a sample trading strategy presented in the article for demonstration purposes only. It explores how the strategy's equity curve might benefit from filtering trade entries using a specific price pattern.
█ CONCEPTS
Pattern filters represent valuable tools that assess current market conditions based on price movements and determine when those conditions become more favorable for trade entries.
The filter used and tested in this article is a metric called the "weekly factor", which measures the price range over the last five trading days and compares it to the open of the session five days ago and the close of the session one day ago (i.e., the "body" of the five-day period). When the five-day body is small compared to the five-day range, this could indicate "indecision" or "compression", potentially followed by a price expansion. Thus, the weekly factor metric can help identify areas in the market where a period of compression might signal a potential breakout.
This script demonstrates the use of the weekly factor for a sample intraday trading strategy (intended for educational and exploratory purposes only). In this strategy, the entry signal is triggered when a 15-minute bar breaks out of the previous day's high-low range, and the position is closed at the end of the day.
█ CALCULATIONS
The script uses two timeframes:
• The strategy entries are processed on the 15-minute timeframe.
• The weekly factor is obtained from the daily timeframe using the request.security function and the following formula:
math.abs(open - close ) < RangeFilter * (ta.highest(5) - ta.lowest(5) )
Here, RangeFilter is an input that can be optimized to find the favorable ratio between the five-day body and the five-day range. Smaller RangeFilter values will lead to fewer trade entries. A RangeFilter value of 1 is equivalent to turning off the filtering altogether.
TrendGuard Flag Finder - Strategy [presentTrading]
Introduction and How It Is Different
In the vast world of trading strategies, the TrendGuard Flag Finder stands out as a unique blend of traditional flag pattern detection and the renowned SuperTrend indicator.
- A significant portion of the Flag Pattern detection is inspired by the "Flag Finder" code by @Amphibiantrading, which serves as one of foundational element of this strategy.
- While many strategies focus on either trend-following or pattern recognition, this strategy harmoniously combines both, offering traders a more holistic view of the market.
- The integration of the SuperTrend indicator not only provides a clear direction of the prevailing trend but also offers potential stop-loss levels, enhancing the strategy's risk management capabilities.
AAPL 1D chart
ETHBTC 6hr chart
Strategy: How It Works
The TrendGuard Flag Finder is primarily built on two pillars:
1. Flag Pattern Detection : At its core, the strategy identifies flag patterns, which are continuation patterns suggesting that the prevailing trend will resume after a brief consolidation. The strategy meticulously detects both bullish and bearish flags, ensuring traders can capitalize on opportunities in both rising and falling markets.
What is a Flag Pattern? A flag pattern consists of two main components:
1.1 The Pole : This is the initial strong price move, which can be either upwards (for bullish flags) or downwards (for bearish flags). The pole represents a strong surge in price in a particular direction, driven by significant buying or selling momentum.
1.2 The Flag : Following the pole, the price starts consolidating, moving against the initial trend. This consolidation forms a rectangular shape and is characterized by parallel trendlines. In a bullish flag, the consolidation will have a slight downward tilt, while in a bearish flag, it will have a slight upward tilt.
How the Strategy Detects Flags:
Identifying the Pole: The strategy first identifies a strong price movement over a user-defined number of bars. This movement should meet a certain percentage change to qualify as a pole.
Spotting the Flag: After the pole is identified, the strategy looks for a consolidation phase. The consolidation should be counter to the prevailing trend and should be contained within parallel lines. The depth (for bullish flags) or rally (for bearish flags) of this consolidation is calculated to ensure it meets user-defined criteria.
2. SuperTrend Integration : The SuperTrend indicator, known for its simplicity and effectiveness, is integrated into the strategy. It provides a dynamic line on the chart, signaling the prevailing trend. When prices are above the SuperTrend line, it's an indication of an uptrend, and vice versa. This not only confirms the flag pattern's direction but also offers a potential stop-loss level for trades.
When combined, these components allow traders to identify potential breakout (for bullish flags) or breakdown (for bearish flags) scenarios, backed by the momentum indicated by the SuperTrend.
Usage
To use the SuperTrend Enhanced Flag Finder:
- Inputs : Begin by setting the desired parameters. The strategy offers a range of user-controlled settings, allowing for customization based on individual trading preferences and risk tolerance.
- Visualization : Once the parameters are set, the strategy will identify and visually represent flag patterns on the chart. Bullish flags are represented in green, while bearish flags are in red.
- Trade Execution : When a breakout or breakdown is identified, the strategy provides entry signals. It also offers exit signals based on the SuperTrend, ensuring that traders can capitalize on the momentum while managing risk.
Default Settings
The strategy comes with a set of default settings optimized for general use:
- SuperTrend Parameters: Length set to 10 and Factor set to 5.0.
- Bull Flag Criteria: Max Flag Depth at 7, Max Flag Length at 10 bars, Min Flag Length at 3 bars, Prior Uptrend Minimum at 9%, and Flag Pole Length between 7 to 13 bars.
- Bear Flag Criteria: Similar settings adjusted for bearish patterns.
- Display Options: By default, both bullish and bearish flags are displayed, with breakout and breakdown points highlighted.
Swing Breaker Strategy [v0.1] - Support and resistance breakoutSwing Breaker Strategy - Support and Resistance Breakouts
This strategy has no repainting.
Default settings:
Swing Barsback: 10
Number of Swings: 3
Stoploss Candles Lookback: 5
Why these default settings?
This strategy has been backtested with over 100 trades, and on a larger scale of 1000 trades, it has reported a 1.33 profit factor with a maximum 5% cumulative drawdown, using no leverage. In this backtest, the settings (10,3,5) were used, becoming the default settings as they are more adaptable to different market conditions.
How does this strategy work?
Defining swing lows (support) and swing highs (resistance): We can locate these candles by looking at a symmetrical candle unit around them. For example, the default settings present a 10 swing bars back, which means there is no superior level within a 10-candle radius in the case of a swing high, and the opposite for a swing low. Swings are located a few candles after, just the number of swing bars back (width), because it is needed to ensure it is a swing.
Locating trends: We locate trends by looking at consecutive swings. For example, in the default settings, to determine a bullish trend, we need 3 consecutive ascending swing lows; for a bearish trend, 3 consecutive descending swing highs. You can find this parameter in settings as "Number of swings."
When a trend is formed, a stop entry is placed at the last swing until it is broken.
Just after the entry, the stop is placed at the lowest (in the case of a long) or the highest (in the case of a short) of the last candles. You can define that number in the settings as "Stoploss candles lookback," which default is 5. The take profit is placed at 2 times the stop value, resulting in a 2 risk-reward ratio.
Why is this strategy protected?
No other strategy combines the way of locating swings and turning it into a strategy, including customizable parameters such as stop loss, swing width and introducing the number of swings. That's why we decided to protect it.
Anand's Strategy
First, we identify the trend, the trend will be determined by the daily candles, whenever the daily candle closes above the high of a previous candle the trend becomes positive and the trend remains positive till the time a candle closes below the lowest price of this candle, however, if the cost of any future candle closes above the high of this candle then the bottom of this candle becomes the SL/ trend change point. And vice versa for the opposing side.
Once we have identified the trend we will trade only on the side of the trend in the 15mins candles
If the trend is positive then only positive trades will be initiated when the conditions are fulfilled I.e
Whenever a 15min candle closes above the high of a previous 15min candle then we enter the trade and if any 15min candle closes below the lowest price of this candle then we SL our trade, once any candle closes above the highest price of this candle then the lowest price of that candle becomes our trailing SL
[Volume Profile] Signal Clean Up Analysis with Backtest (TSO) This is a full-cycle trading system indicator, which uses Volume Profile for generating signals using a custom developed algorithm, TP (Take Profit) and SL (Stop Loss) levels. There are 2 SOURCES for signals (each can be used separately or both can be used at the same time, each signal SOURCE is using Volume Profile levels to open optimal trade direction) with chained (NOTE: You can select several or ALL of the features, this is not limited to either one) signal cleanup and analysis approach with scheduling and alerting capabilities. Works with most popular timeframes: 1M, 5M, 15M, 1H, 4H, D, great for intraday trading!
NOTE: Every calculation is done on a confirmed closed candle bar state, so the indicator will never repaint!
===========================================================================

===========================================================================
Labels, plots, colors explanations:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>>>> Signal SOURCE(s): Green/Red arrows, which will be shown unconditionally, outside of trade engine and can be hidden if desired.
>>>>> LONG open: green "house" looking arrow below candle bar.
>>>>> SHORT open: red "house" looking arrow above candle bar.
>>>>> LONG/SHORT take-profit target: green/red circles (multi-profit > TP2/3/4/5 smaller circles).

>>>>> LONG/SHORT stop-loss target: green/red + crosses.
>>>>> LONG/SHORT stop-loss hits: green/red X-crosses.
>>>>> LONG/SHORT EOD close (profitable trade): green/red squares.
>>>>> LONG/SHORT EOD close (loss trade): green/red PLUS(+)-crosses.
===========================================================================
Date Range and Trading Schedule Settings
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>>>> Date Range: Select your start and/or end dates (uncheck “End” for indicator to show results up to the very moment and to use for LIVE trading) for backtesting results, if not using backtesting – uncheck “Start”/“End” to turn it off.
>>>>> Use TradingView “Strategy Tester” to see backtesting results
NOTE: If Strategy Tester does not show any results with Date Ranged fully unchecked, there may be an issue where a script opens a trade, but there is not enough TradingView power to set the Take-Profit and Stop-Loss and somehow an open trade gets stuck and never closes, so there are “no trades present”. In such case you will need to manually check “Start”/“End” dates or use “Depp Backtesting” feature!
>>>>> Trading Schedule: This is where you can setup Intraday Session or any custom session schedule you wish. Turn it ON. Select trading hours. Select EOD (End of Day) setting (NOTE: If it will be OFF, the indicator will assume you are holding your position open until next day!).
>>> Trading Systems: 1) "Open Until Closed by TP or SL": the signal will only open a trade if no trades are currently open/trunning, a trade can only be closed by Take Profit, Stop Loss or End of Day close (if turned on) | 2) "Open Until Closed by TP or SL + OCA": Same as 1), but if there is an opposite signal to the trade which is currently open > it will immediately be closed with new trade open or End of Day close (if turned on) | 3) "OCA (no TP or SL)": There are is Take Profit or Stop Loss, only an opposite signal will close current trade and open an opposite one or End of Day close (if turned on)
>>>>> MULTIPROFIT | TP (Take-Profit) System: Once the trade is open, all Take-Profit target(s) are immediately calculated and set for the trade > once the target(s) is hit > trade will be partially closed (if candle bar closes beyond several Take-Profit targets > trade will be reduced accordingly to the amount of how many Take-Profit targets were hit)
>>>>> MULTIPROFIT | SL (Stop-Loss) System: 1) Static – Once the trade is open, Stop-Loss is calculated and set for the remaining of the trade ||| 2) Dynamic – At trade open, Stop-Loss is calculated and set the same way, however once 1st Take-Profit is taken > Stop-Loss is moved to Entry, reducing the risk.
>>>>> # of TPs (number of take profit targets): Just like it is named, this is where you select the number of Take-Profit targets for your trading system (NOTE: If "OCA (no TP or SL)" Trading System is selected, this setting won’t do anything, since there are no TP or SLs for that system).
>>>>> TP(s) offset: This is a special feature for all Take-Profit targets, where you can turn on a customizable offset, so that if the price is almost hitting the Take-Profit target, but never actually touches it > you will capture it. This is good to use with HHLL (Highest High Lowest Low), which is pretty much a Support/Resistance as often the price will nearly touch these strong areas and turn around…

Take-Profit and Stop-Loss visual example:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) A simply nice intraday trading day for SPY (S&P500 ETF TRUST) with a single Take-Profit target on each trade.
See how Take-Profit distances increase with price momentum and how Stop-Loss is following the trade reducing the risk!
2) Same intraday trading day for SPY (S&P500 ETF TRUST) with 3 Take-Profit targets with static Stop-Loss.
3) Same intraday trading day for SPY (S&P500 ETF TRUST) with 3 Take-Profit targets with dynamic Stop-Loss.
You can see how Stop-Loss was moved once TP1 is taken!

Trade Analysis and Cleanup Settings
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>>>> Candle Analysis | Candle Color signal confirmation: If closed candle bar color does not match the signal direction > no trade will be open.
>>>>> Candle Analysis | Skip opposite candle signals: If closed candle bar color will match the signal direction, but candle structure will be opposite (for example: bearish green hammer, long high stick on top of a small green square) > no trade will be open.
>>>>> Candle Analysis | Skip doji candle signals: If closed candle bar will be the uncertain doji > no trade will be open.
>>>>> Divergence/Oscillator Analysis | EWO (Elliot Wave Oscillator) signal confirmation: LONG will only be open if at signal, EWO is green or will be at bullish slope (you can select which setting you desire), SHORT if EWO is red or will be at bearish slope.
>>>>> Divergence/Oscillator Analysis | VWAP signal confirmation: LONG will only be open if at signal, the price will be above VWAP, SHORT if below.
>>>>> Divergence/Oscillator Analysis | Moving Average signal confirmation: LONG will only be open if at signal, the price will be above selected Moving Average, SHORT if below.
>>>>> Divergence/Oscillator Analysis | ATR signal confirmation: LONG will only be open if at signal, the price will be above ATR, SHORT if below.
>>>>> Divergence/Oscillator Analysis | RSI + MACD signal confirmation: LONG will only be open if at signal, RSI + MACD will be bullish, SHORT if RSI + MACD will be bearish.
>>>>> Volume signal confirmation: LONG/SHORT will only be open if closing candle volume is 150% above average Volume based on the Volume Length.

NOTE: Below 2 settings, each correspond to only 1 setting of the TP (Take-Profit) System, please pay attention to the above TP system setting before changing SL settings!
>>>>> MULTIPROFIT | SL (Stop-Loss) System : 1) Static – Once the trade is open, Stop-Loss is calculated and set for the remaining of the trade ||| 2) Dynamic – At trade open, Stop-Loss is calculated and set the same way, however once 1st Take-Profit is taken > Stop-Loss is moved to Entry, reducing the risk.

>>>>> # of TPs (number of take profit targets): Just like it is named, this is where you select the number of Take-Profit targets for your trading system (NOTE: If “3) Open Until Opposite Signal or EOD (if turned on)” Trading System is selected, this setting won’t do anything, since there are no TP or SLs for that system).

Hobbiecode - RSI + Close previous dayThis is a simple strategy that is working well on SPY but also well performing on Mini Futures SP500. The strategy is composed by the followin rules:
1. If RSI(2) is less than 15, then enter at the close.
2. Exit on close if today’s close is higher than yesterday’s high.
If you backtest it on Mini Futures SP500 you will be able to track data from 1993. It is important to select D1 as timeframe.
Please share any comment or idea below.
Have a good trading,
