Intramarket Difference Index StrategyHi Traders !!
The IDI Strategy:
In layman’s terms this strategy compares two indicators across markets and exploits their differences.
note: it is best the two markets are correlated as then we know we are trading a short to long term deviation from both markets' general trend with the assumption both markets will trend again sometime in the future thereby exhausting our trading opportunity.
📍 Import Notes:
This Strategy calculates trade position size independently (i.e. risk per trade is controlled in the user inputs tab), this means that the ‘Order size’ input in the ‘Properties’ tab will have no effect on the strategy. Why ? because this allows us to define custom position size algorithms which we can use to improve our risk management and equity growth over time. Here we have the option to have fixed quantity or fixed percentage of equity ATR (Average True Range) based stops in addition to the turtle trading position size algorithm.
‘Pyramiding’ does not work for this strategy’, similar to the order size input togeling this input will have no effect on the strategy as the strategy explicitly defines the maximum order size to be 1.
This strategy is not perfect, and as of writing of this post I have not traded this algo.
Always take your time to backtests and debug the strategy.
🔷 The IDI Strategy:
By default this strategy pulls data from your current TV chart and then compares it to the base market, be default BINANCE:BTCUSD . The strategy pulls SMA and RSI data from either market (we call this the difference data), standardizes the data (solving the different unit problem across markets) such that it is comparable and then differentiates the data, calling the result of this transformation and difference the Intramarket Difference (ID). The formula for the the ID is
ID = market1_diff_data - market2_diff_data (1)
Where
market(i)_diff_data = diff_data / ATR(j)_market(i)^0.5,
where i = {1, 2} and j = the natural numbers excluding 0
Formula (1) interpretation is the following
When ID > 0: this means the current market outperforms the base market
When ID = 0: Markets are at long run equilibrium
When ID < 0: this means the current market underperforms the base market
To form the strategy we define one of two strategy type’s which are Trend and Mean Revesion respectively.
🔸 Trend Case:
Given the ‘‘Strategy Type’’ is equal to TREND we define a threshold for which if the ID crosses over we go long and if the ID crosses under the negative of the threshold we go short.
The motivating idea is that the ID is an indicator of the two symbols being out of sync, and given we know volatility clustering, momentum and mean reversion of anomalies to be a stylised fact of financial data we can construct a trading premise. Let's first talk more about this premise.
For some markets (cryptocurrency markets - synthetic symbols in TV) the stylised fact of momentum is true, this means that higher momentum is followed by higher momentum, and given we know momentum to be a vector quantity (with magnitude and direction) this momentum can be both positive and negative i.e. when the ID crosses above some threshold we make an assumption it will continue in that direction for some time before executing back to its long run equilibrium of 0 which is a reasonable assumption to make if the market are correlated. For example for the BTCUSD - ETHUSD pair, if the ID > +threshold (inputs for MA and RSI based ID thresholds are found under the ‘‘INTRAMARKET DIFFERENCE INDEX’’ group’), ETHUSD outperforms BTCUSD, we assume the momentum to continue so we go long ETHUSD.
In the standard case we would exit the market when the IDI returns to its long run equilibrium of 0 (for the positive case the ID may return to 0 because ETH’s difference data may have decreased or BTC’s difference data may have increased). However in this strategy we will not define this as our exit condition, why ?
This is because we want to ‘‘let our winners run’’, to achieve this we define a trailing Donchian Channel stop loss (along with a fixed ATR based stop as our volatility proxy). If we were too use the 0 exit the strategy may print a buy signal (ID > +threshold in the simple case, market regimes may be used), return to 0 and then print another buy signal, and this process can loop may times, this high trade frequency means we fail capture the entire market move lowering our profit, furthermore on lower time frames this high trade frequencies mean we pay more transaction costs (due to price slippage, commission and big-ask spread) which means less profit.
By capturing the sum of many momentum moves we are essentially following the trend hence the trend following strategy type.
Here we also print the IDI (with default strategy settings with the MA difference type), we can see that by letting our winners run we may catch many valid momentum moves, that results in a larger final pnl that if we would otherwise exit based on the equilibrium condition(Valid trades are denoted by solid green and red arrows respectively and all other valid trades which occur within the original signal are light green and red small arrows).
another example...
Note: if you would like to plot the IDI separately copy and paste the following code in a new Pine Script indicator template.

Note it is possible that after printing a buy the strategy then prints many sell signals before returning to a buy, which again has the same implication (less profit. Potentially because we exit early only for price to continue upwards hence missing the larger "trend"). The image below showcases this cenario and again, by allowing our winner to run we may capture more profit (theoretically).
This should be clear...
🔸 Mean Reversion Case:
We stated prior that mean reversion of anomalies is an standerdies fact of financial data, how can we exploit this ?
We exploit this by normalizing the ID by applying the Ehlers fisher transformation. The transformed data is then assumed to be approximately normally distributed. To form the strategy we employ the same logic as for the z score, if the FT normalized ID > 2.5 (< -2.5) we buy (short). Our exit conditions remain unchanged (fixed ATR stop and trailing Donchian Trailing stop)
🔷 Position Sizing:
If ‘‘Fixed Risk From Initial Balance’’ is toggled true this means we risk a fixed percentage of our initial balance, if false we risk a fixed percentage of our equity (current balance).
Note we also employ a volatility adjusted position sizing formula, the turtle training method which is defined as follows.
Turtle position size = (1/ r * ATR * DV) * C
Where,
r = risk factor coefficient (default is 20)
ATR(j) = risk proxy, over j times steps
DV = Dollar Volatility, where DV = (1/Asset Price) * Capital at Risk
🔷 Risk Management:
Correct money management means we can limit risk and increase reward (theoretically). Here we employ
Max loss and gain per day
Max loss per trade
Max number of consecutive losing trades until trade skip
To read more see the tooltips (info circle).
🔷 Take Profit:
By defualt the script uses a Donchain Channel as a trailing stop and take profit, In addition to this the script defines a fixed ATR stop losses (by defualt, this covers cases where the DC range may be to wide making a fixed ATR stop usefull), ATR take profits however are defined but optional.
ATR SL and TP defined for all trades
🔷 Hurst Regime (Regime Filter):
The Hurst Exponent (H) aims to segment the market into three different states, Trending (H > 0.5), Random Geometric Brownian Motion (H = 0.5) and Mean Reverting / Contrarian (H < 0.5). In my interpretation this can be used as a trend filter that eliminates market noise.
We utilize the trending and mean reverting based states, as extra conditions required for valid trades for both strategy types respectively, in the process increasing our trade entry quality.
🔷 Example model Architecture:
Here is an example of one configuration of this strategy, combining all aspects discussed in this post.

Multi-Factor StrategyThis trading strategy combines multiple technical indicators to create a systematic approach for entering and exiting trades. The goal is to capture trends by aligning several key indicators to confirm the direction and strength of a potential trade. Below is a detailed description of how the strategy works:
Indicators Used
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence):
MACD Line: The difference between the 12-period and 26-period Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs).
Signal Line: A 9-period EMA of the MACD line.
Usage: The strategy looks for crossovers between the MACD line and the Signal line as entry signals. A bullish crossover (MACD line crossing above the Signal line) indicates a potential upward movement, while a bearish crossover (MACD line crossing below the Signal line) signals a potential downward movement.
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
Usage: RSI is used to gauge the momentum of the price movement. The strategy uses specific thresholds: below 70 for long positions to avoid overbought conditions and above 30 for short positions to avoid oversold conditions.
ATR (Average True Range):
Usage: ATR measures market volatility and is used to set dynamic stop-loss and take-profit levels. A stop loss is set at 2 times the ATR, and a take profit at 3 times the ATR, ensuring that risk is managed relative to market conditions.
Simple Moving Averages (SMA):
50-day SMA: A short-term trend indicator.
200-day SMA: A long-term trend indicator.
Usage: The strategy uses the relationship between the 50-day and 200-day SMAs to determine the overall market trend. Long positions are taken when the price is above the 50-day SMA and the 50-day SMA is above the 200-day SMA, indicating an uptrend. Conversely, short positions are taken when the price is below the 50-day SMA and the 50-day SMA is below the 200-day SMA, indicating a downtrend.
Entry Conditions
Long Position:
-MACD Crossover: The MACD line crosses above the Signal line.
-RSI Confirmation: RSI is below 70, ensuring the asset is not overbought.
-SMA Confirmation: The price is above the 50-day SMA, and the 50-day SMA is above the 200-day SMA, indicating a strong uptrend.
Short Position:
MACD Crossunder: The MACD line crosses below the Signal line.
RSI Confirmation: RSI is above 30, ensuring the asset is not oversold.
SMA Confirmation: The price is below the 50-day SMA, and the 50-day SMA is below the 200-day SMA, indicating a strong downtrend.
Opposite conditions for shorts
Exit Strategy
Stop Loss: Set at 2 times the ATR from the entry price. This dynamically adjusts to market volatility, allowing for wider stops in volatile markets and tighter stops in calmer markets.
Take Profit: Set at 3 times the ATR from the entry price. This ensures a favorable risk-reward ratio of 1:1.5, aiming for higher rewards on successful trades.
Visualization
SMAs: The 50-day and 200-day SMAs are plotted on the chart to visualize the trend direction.
MACD Crossovers: Bullish and bearish MACD crossovers are highlighted on the chart to identify potential entry points.
Summary
This strategy is designed to align multiple indicators to increase the probability of successful trades by confirming trends and momentum before entering a position. It systematically manages risk with ATR-based stop loss and take profit levels, ensuring that trades are exited based on market conditions rather than arbitrary points. The combination of trend indicators (SMAs) with momentum and volatility indicators (MACD, RSI, ATR) creates a robust approach to trading in various market environments.

Bitcoin Futures vs. Spot Tri-Frame - Strategy [presentTrading]Prove idea with a backtest is always true for trading.
I developed and open-sourced it as an educational material for crypto traders to understand that the futures and spot spread may be effective but not be as effective as they might think. It serves as an indicator of sentiment rather than a reliable predictor of market trends over certain periods. It is better suited for specific trading environments, which require further research.
█ Introduction and How it is Different
The "Bitcoin Futures vs. Spot Tri-Frame Strategy" utilizes three different timeframes to calculate the Z-Score of the spread between BTC futures and spot prices on Binance and OKX exchanges. The strategy executes long or short trades based on composite Z-Score conditions across the three timeframes.
The spread refers to the difference in price between BTC futures and BTC spot prices, calculated by taking a weighted average of futures prices from multiple exchanges (Binance and OKX) and subtracting a weighted average of spot prices from the same exchanges.
BTCUSD 1D L/S Performance
█ Strategy, How It Works: Detailed Explanation
🔶 Calculation of the Spread
The spread is the difference in price between BTC futures and BTC spot prices. The strategy calculates the spread by taking a weighted average of futures prices from multiple exchanges (Binance and OKX) and subtracting a weighted average of spot prices from the same exchanges. This spread serves as the primary metric for identifying trading opportunities.
Spread = Weighted Average Futures Price - Weighted Average Spot Price
🔶 Z-Score Calculation
The Z-Score measures how many standard deviations the current spread is from its historical mean. This is calculated for each timeframe as follows:
Spread Mean_tf = SMA(Spread_tf, longTermSMA)
Spread StdDev_tf = STDEV(Spread_tf, longTermSMA)
Z-Score_tf = (Spread_tf - Spread Mean_tf) / Spread StdDev_tf
Local performance
🔶 Composite Entry Conditions
The strategy triggers long and short entries based on composite Z-Score conditions across all three timeframes:
- Long Condition: All three Z-Scores must be greater than the long entry threshold.
Long Condition = (Z-Score_tf1 > zScoreLongEntryThreshold) and (Z-Score_tf2 > zScoreLongEntryThreshold) and (Z-Score_tf3 > zScoreLongEntryThreshold)
- Short Condition: All three Z-Scores must be less than the short entry threshold.
Short Condition = (Z-Score_tf1 < zScoreShortEntryThreshold) and (Z-Score_tf2 < zScoreShortEntryThreshold) and (Z-Score_tf3 < zScoreShortEntryThreshold)
█ Trade Direction
The strategy allows the user to specify the trading direction:
- Long: Only long trades are executed.
- Short: Only short trades are executed.
- Both: Both long and short trades are executed based on the Z-Score conditions.
█ Usage
The strategy can be applied to BTC or Crypto trading on major exchanges like Binance and OKX. By leveraging discrepancies between futures and spot prices, traders can exploit market inefficiencies. This strategy is suitable for traders who prefer a statistical approach and want to diversify their timeframes to validate signals.
█ Default Settings
- Input TF 1 (60 minutes): Sets the first timeframe for Z-Score calculation.
- Input TF 2 (120 minutes): Sets the second timeframe for Z-Score calculation.
- Input TF 3 (180 minutes): Sets the third timeframe for Z-Score calculation.
- Long Entry Z-Score Threshold (3): Defines the threshold above which a long trade is triggered.
- Short Entry Z-Score Threshold (-3): Defines the threshold below which a short trade is triggered.
- Long-Term SMA Period (100): The period used to calculate the simple moving average for the spread.
- Use Hold Days (true): Enables holding trades for a specified number of days.
- Hold Days (5): Number of days to hold the trade before exiting.
- TPSL Condition (None): Defines the conditions for taking profit and stop loss.
- Take Profit (%) (30.0): The percentage at which the trade will take profit.
- Stop Loss (%) (20.0): The percentage at which the trade will stop loss.
By fine-tuning these settings, traders can optimize the strategy to suit their risk tolerance and trading style, enhancing overall performance.
Double Vegas SuperTrend Enhanced - Strategy [presentTrading]
█ Introduction and How It Is Different
The "Double Vegas SuperTrend Enhanced" strategy is a sophisticated trading system that combines two Vegas SuperTrend Enhanced. Very Powerful!
Let's celebrate the joy of Children's Day on June 1st! Enjoyyy!
BTCUSD LS performance
The strategy aims to pinpoint market trends with greater accuracy and generate trades that align with the overall market direction.
This approach differentiates itself by integrating volatility adjustments and leveraging the Vegas Channel's width to refine the SuperTrend calculations, resulting in a dynamic and responsive trading system.
Additionally, the strategy incorporates customizable take-profit and stop-loss levels, providing traders with a robust framework for risk management.
-> check Vegas SuperTrend Enhanced - Strategy
█ Strategy, How It Works: Detailed Explanation
🔶 Vegas Channel and SuperTrend Calculations
The strategy initiates by calculating the Vegas Channel, which is derived from a simple moving average (SMA) and the standard deviation (STD) of the closing prices over a specified window length. This channel helps in measuring market volatility and forms the basis for adjusting the SuperTrend indicator.
Vegas Channel Calculation:
- vegasMovingAverage = SMA(close, vegasWindow)
- vegasChannelStdDev = STD(close, vegasWindow)
- vegasChannelUpper = vegasMovingAverage + vegasChannelStdDev
- vegasChannelLower = vegasMovingAverage - vegasChannelStdDev
SuperTrend Multiplier Adjustment:
- channelVolatilityWidth = vegasChannelUpper - vegasChannelLower
- adjustedMultiplier = superTrendMultiplierBase + volatilityAdjustmentFactor * (channelVolatilityWidth / vegasMovingAverage)
The adjusted multiplier enhances the SuperTrend's sensitivity to market volatility, making it more adaptable to changing market conditions.
BTCUSD Local picture.
🔶 Average True Range (ATR) and SuperTrend Values
The ATR is computed over a specified period to measure market volatility. Using the ATR and the adjusted multiplier, the SuperTrend upper and lower levels are determined.
ATR Calculation:
- averageTrueRange = ATR(atrPeriod)
**SuperTrend Calculation:**
- superTrendUpper = hlc3 - (adjustedMultiplier * averageTrueRange)
- superTrendLower = hlc3 + (adjustedMultiplier * averageTrueRange)
The SuperTrend levels are continuously updated based on the previous values and the current market trend direction. The market trend is determined by comparing the closing prices with the SuperTrend levels.
Trend Direction:
- If close > superTrendLowerPrev, then marketTrend = 1 (bullish)
- If close < superTrendUpperPrev, then marketTrend = -1 (bearish)
🔶 Trade Entry and Exit Conditions
The strategy generates trade signals based on the alignment of both SuperTrends. Trades are executed only when both SuperTrends indicate the same market direction.
Entry Conditions:
- Long Position: Both SuperTrends must signal a bullish trend.
- Short Position: Both SuperTrends must signal a bearish trend.
Exit Conditions:
- Positions are exited if either SuperTrend reverses its trend direction.
- Additional conditions include holding periods and configurable take-profit and stop-loss levels.
█ Trade Direction
The strategy allows traders to specify the desired trade direction through a customizable input setting. Options include:
- Long: Only enter long positions.
- Short: Only enter short positions.
- Both: Enter both long and short positions based on the market conditions.
█ Usage
To utilize the "Double Vegas SuperTrend Enhanced" strategy, traders need to configure the input settings according to their trading preferences and market conditions. The strategy includes parameters for ATR periods, Vegas Channel window lengths, SuperTrend multipliers, volatility adjustment factors, and risk management settings such as hold days, take-profit, and stop-loss percentages.
█ Default Settings
The strategy comes with default settings that can be adjusted to fit individual trading styles:
- trade Direction: Both (allows trading in both long and short directions for maximum flexibility).
- ATR Periods: 10 for SuperTrend 1 and 5 for SuperTrend 2 (shorter ATR period results in more sensitivity to recent price movements).
- Vegas Window Lengths: 100 for SuperTrend 1 and 200 for SuperTrend 2 (longer window length results in smoother moving averages and less sensitivity to short-term volatility).
- SuperTrend Multipliers: 5 for SuperTrend 1 and 7 for SuperTrend 2 (higher multipliers lead to wider SuperTrend channels, reducing the frequency of trades).
- Volatility Adjustment Factors: 5 for SuperTrend 1 and 7 for SuperTrend 2 (higher adjustment factors increase the responsiveness to changes in market volatility).
- Hold Days: 5 (defines the minimum duration a position is held, ensuring trades are not exited prematurely).
- Take Profit: 30% (sets the target profit level to lock in gains).
- Stop Loss: 20% (sets the maximum acceptable loss level to mitigate risk).

By default, Pine Script operates on the timeframe of the chart it's applied to. However, in trading strategies, it's common to incorporate signals or data from higher timeframes to confirm or validate signals generated on lower timeframes. This helps traders to align their trades with the broader market trend.
Trend Confirmation:
In this script, the confirmationTrendTimeframe parameter allows users to specify a higher timeframe for trend confirmation. The request.security() function fetches the data from this higher timeframe and applies the defined conditions to confirm the trend direction.
Lookahead Behavior:
The lookahead parameter set to barmerge.lookahead_on ensures that the script considers the most up-to-date information available on the higher timeframe when making trading decisions on the lower timeframe. This prevents the script from lagging behind or using outdated data, enhancing the accuracy of trend confirmation.
Usage in confirmationTrendBullish and confirmationTrendBearish:
These variables are assigned the values returned by the request.security() function, which represents the bullish or bearish trend confirmation based on the conditions applied to the data from the higher timeframe.
Wunder False Breakout1. The basic concept for this strategy is to use false breakout logic based on price levels.
2. We will enter a trade when the price exhibits a false breakout, where it initially breaks a level but then reverses direction.
3. The main concept of this strategy is to capitalize on false breakouts of price levels. The strategy involves building levels based on the highs and lows over a certain period. When these price levels appear to break out but then reverse, we use these false breakouts as entry points. You can adjust the period to find setups that suit your trading pair and timeframe.
4. A function for calculating risk on the portfolio (your deposit) has been added to the Wunder False Breakout. When this option is enabled, you get a calculation of the entry amount in dollars relative to your Stop Loss. In the settings, you can select the risk percentage on your portfolio. The loss will be calculated from the amount that will be displayed on the chart.
5. For example, if your deposit is $1000 and you set the risk to 1%, with a Stop Loss of 5%, the entry volume will be $200. The loss at SL will be $10. 10$, which is your 1% risk or 1% of the deposit.
Important! The risk per trade must be less than the Stop Loss value. If the risk is greater than SL, then you should use leverage.
The amount of funds entering the trade is calculated in dollars. This option was created if you want to send the dollar amount from Tradingview to the exchange. However, putting your volume in dollars you get the incorrect net profit and drawdown indication in the backtest results, as TradingView calculates the backtest volume in contracts.
To display the correct net profit and drawdown values in Tradingview Backtest results, use the ”Volume in contract” option.
Multi-Timeframe Trend Following with 200 EMA Filter - Longs OnlyOverview
This strategy is designed to trade long positions based on multiple timeframe Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) and a 200 EMA filter. The strategy ensures that trades are only entered in strong uptrends and aims to capitalize on sustained upward movements while minimizing risk with a defined stop-loss and take-profit mechanism.
Key Components
Initial Capital and Position Sizing
Initial Capital: $1000.
Lot Size: 1 unit per trade.
Inputs
Fast EMA Length (fast_length): The period for the fast EMA.
Slow EMA Length (slow_length): The period for the slow EMA.
200 EMA Length (filter_length_200): Set to 200 periods for the primary trend filter.
Stop Loss Percentage (stop_loss_perc): Set to 1% of the entry price.
Take Profit Percentage (take_profit_perc): Set to 3% of the entry price.
Timeframes and EMAs
EMAs are calculated for the following timeframes using the request.security function:
5-minute: Short-term trend detection.
15-minute: Intermediate-term trend detection.
30-minute: Long-term trend detection.
The strategy also calculates a 200-period EMA on the 5-minute timeframe to serve as a primary trend filter.
Trend Calculation
The strategy determines the trend for each timeframe by comparing the fast and slow EMAs:
If the fast EMA is above the slow EMA, the trend is considered positive (1).
If the fast EMA is below the slow EMA, the trend is considered negative (-1).
Combined Trend Signal
The combined trend signal is derived by summing the individual trends from the 5-minute, 15-minute, and 30-minute timeframes.
A combined trend value of 3 indicates a strong uptrend across all timeframes.
Any combined trend value less than 3 indicates a weakening or negative trend.
Entry and Exit Conditions
Entry Condition:
A long position is entered if:
The combined trend signal is 3 (indicating a strong uptrend across all timeframes).
The current close price is above the 200 EMA on the 5-minute timeframe.
Exit Condition:
The long position is exited if:
The combined trend signal is less than 3 (indicating a weakening trend).
The current close price falls below the 200 EMA on the 5-minute timeframe.
Stop Loss and Take Profit
Stop Loss: Set at 1% below the entry price.
Take Profit: Set at 3% above the entry price.
These levels are automatically set when entering a trade using the strategy.entry function with stop and limit parameters.
Plotting
The strategy plots the fast and slow EMAs for the 5-minute timeframe and the 200 EMA for visual reference on the chart:
Fast EMA (5-min): Plotted in blue.
Slow EMA (5-min): Plotted in red.
200 EMA (5-min): Plotted in green.
Trend Crawler with Dynamic TP and Trailing Stop### Description of "Trend Crawler with Dynamic TP and Trailing Stop"
#### Overview
The "Trend Crawler with Dynamic TP and Trailing Stop" is a comprehensive trading strategy designed for medium-frequency trading on various timeframes and markets. It utilizes a combination of trend identification and volatility analysis to determine optimal entry and exit points, aiming to maximize profitability by adapting to changing market conditions.
#### Strategy Mechanics
1. **Moving Averages**: Users can select between Simple Moving Average (SMA) and Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to define the trend. The strategy uses two moving averages (fast and slow) to identify the trend direction. A crossover of the fast MA above the slow MA signals a potential bullish trend, while a crossunder signals a bearish trend.
2. **Volume Analysis**: The strategy incorporates volume analysis to confirm the strength of the trend. It calculates a standard deviation of volume from its moving average to detect significant increases in trading activity, which supports the trend direction indicated by the MAs.
3. **Price Spread and RSI**: It uses the price spread (difference between the close and open of each bar) and the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to filter entries based on market momentum and overbought/oversold conditions. This helps in refining the entries to avoid weak or overly extended moves.
4. **Dynamic Take Profit and Trailing Stop**:
- **Trailing Stop**: As the position moves into profit, the strategy adjusts the stop loss dynamically to protect gains, using a trailing stop mechanism.
- **Dynamic Take Profit**: The take profit levels are adjusted based on the volatility (measured by the standard deviation of the price spread) to capture maximum profit from significant moves.
#### Usage
To use the strategy:
- Set the desired moving average type and lengths according to the asset and timeframe being traded.
- Adjust the RSI thresholds to match the market's volatility and trading style.
- Set the base take profit and stop loss levels along with the trailing stop distance based on risk tolerance and trading objectives.
#### Justification for Originality
While the use of moving averages, RSI, and volume analysis may be common, the integration of these elements with dynamic adjustments for take profit and trailing stops based on real-time volatility analysis offers a unique approach. The strategy adapts not just to trend direction but also to the market's momentum and volatility, providing a tailored trading solution that goes beyond standard indicator-based strategies.
#### Strategy Results and Settings
Backtesting should be conducted with realistic account sizes and include considerations for commission and slippage to ensure that the results are not misleading. Risk per trade should be kept within a sustainable range (ideally less than 5% of account equity), and the strategy should be tested over a sufficient sample size (at least 100 trades) to validate its effectiveness.
#### Chart Presentation
The script’s output includes:
- Colored backgrounds to indicate bullish or bearish market conditions.
- Plots of trailing stops to visually manage risk.
- Entry points are marked with shapes on the chart, providing clear visual cues for trading decisions.
#### Conclusion
This strategy offers traders a robust framework for trend following with enhanced risk management through dynamic adjustments based on real-time market analysis. It's designed to be versatile and adaptable to a wide range of markets and trading styles, providing traders with a tool that not only follows trends but also adapts to market changes to secure profits and reduce losses.
Wunder OI breakout1. The basic concept for this strategy is to breakout open interest levels.
2. Open interest indicates the total number of active positions in the market a sharp increase in which we will use to enter a trade.
3. The main concept of this strategy is to break open interest levels.The strategy is based on building levels based on the highs and lows over a certain period. The breakdown of the set levels is used for entry. You can change the period as well as the percentage of change in open interest to find setups based on your pair and timeframe.
4. A function for calculating risk on the portfolio (your deposit) has been added to the Wunder OI breakout. When this option is enabled, you get a calculation of the entry amount in dollars relative to your Stop Loss. In the settings, you can select the risk percentage on your portfolio. The loss will be calculated from the amount that will be displayed on the chart.
5. For example, if your deposit is $1000 and you set the risk to 1%, with a Stop Loss of 5%, the entry volume will be $200. The loss at SL will be $10. 10$, which is your 1% risk or 1% of the deposit.
Important! The risk per trade must be less than the Stop Loss value. If the risk is greater than SL, then you should use leverage.
The amount of funds entering the trade is calculated in dollars. This option was created if you want to send the dollar amount from Tradingview to the exchange. However, putting your volume in dollars you get the incorrect net profit and drawdown indication in the backtest results, as TradingView calculates the backtest volume in contracts.
To display the correct net profit and drawdown values in Tradingview Backtest results, use the ”Volume in contract” option.
Crypto Punk [Bot] (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Crypto Punk (Zeiierman) is a trading strategy designed for the dynamic and volatile cryptocurrency market. It utilizes algorithms that incorporate price action analysis and principles inspired by Geometric Brownian Motion (GBM). The bot's core functionality revolves around analyzing differences in high and low prices over various timeframes, estimating drift (trend) and volatility, and applying this information to generate trading signals.
█ How to use the Crypto Punk Bot
Utilize the Crypto Punk Bot as a technical analysis tool to enhance your trading strategy. The signals generated by the bot can serve as a confirmation of your existing approach to entering and exiting the market. Additionally, the backtest report provided by the bot is a valuable resource for identifying the optimal settings for the specific market and timeframe you are trading in.
One method is to use the bot's signals to confirm entry points around key support and resistance levels.
█ Key Features
Let's explain how the core features work in the strategy.
⚪ Strategy Filter
The strategy filter plays a vital role in the entries and exits. By setting this filter, the bot can identify higher or lower price points at which to execute trades. Opting for higher values will make the bot target more long-term extreme points, resulting in fewer but potentially more significant signals. Conversely, lower values focus on short-term extreme points, offering more frequent signals focusing on immediate market movements.
How is it calculated?
This filter identifies significant price points within a specified dynamic range by applying linear regression to the absolute deviation of the range, smoothing out fluctuations, and determining the trend direction. The algorithm then normalizes the data and searches for extreme points.
⚪ External AI filter
The external AI filter allows traders to incorporate two external sources as signal filters. This feature is particularly useful for refining their signal accuracy with additional data inputs.
External sources can include any indicator applied to your TradingView chart that produces a plot as an output, such as a moving average, RSI, supertrend, MACD, etc. Traders can use these indicators of their choice to set filters for screening signals within the strategy.
This approach offers traders increased flexibility to select filters that align with their trading style. For instance, one trader might prefer to take trades when the price is above a moving average, while another might opt for trades when the MACD is below the MACD signal line. These external filters enable traders to choose options that best fit their trading strategies. See the example below. Note that the input sources for the External AI filter can be any indicator applied to the chart, and the input source per se does not make this strategy unique. The AI filter takes the selected input source and applies our function to it. So, if a trader selects RSI as an input filter, RSI is not unique, but how the source is computed within the AI functions is.
How is it calculated?
Once the external filters are selected and enabled within the settings panel, our AI function is applied to enhance the filter's ability to execute trades, even when the set conditions of the filter are not met. For instance, if a trader wants to take trades only when the price is above a moving average, the AI filter can actually execute trades even if the price is below the moving average.
The filter works by combining k-nearest Neighbors (KNN) with Geometric Brownian Motion (GBM) involves first using GBM to model the historical price trends of an asset, identifying patterns of drift and volatility. KNN is then applied to compare the current market conditions with historical instances, identifying the closest matches based on similar market behaviors. By examining the drift values of these nearest historical neighbors, KNN predicts the current trend's direction.
The AI adaptability value is a setting that determines how flexible the AI algorithm is when applying the external AI filter. Setting the adaptability to 10 indicates minimal adaptability, suggesting that the bot will strictly adhere to the set filter criteria. On the other hand, a higher adaptability value grants the algorithm more leeway to "think outside the box," allowing it to consider signals that may not strictly meet the filter criteria but are deemed viable trading opportunities by the AI.
█ Examples
In this example, the RSI is used to filter out signals when the RSI is below the smoothing line, indicating that prices are declining.
Note that the external filter is specifically designed to work with either 'LONG ONLY' or 'SHORT ONLY' modes; it does not apply when the bot is set to trade on 'BOTH' modes. For 'LONG ONLY' positions, the filter criteria are met when source 1 is greater than source 2 (source 1 >= source 2). Conversely, for 'SHORT ONLY' positions, the filter criteria require source 1 to be less than source 2 (source 1 <= source 2).
Examples of Filter Usage:
Long Signals: To receive long signals when the closing price is higher than a moving average, set Source 1 to the 'close' price and Source 2 to a moving average value. This setup ensures that signals are generated only when the closing price exceeds the moving average, indicating a potential upward trend.
█ Settings
⚪ Set Timeframe
Choosing the correct entry and exit timeframes is crucial for the bot's performance. The general guideline is to select a timeframe that is higher than the one currently displayed on the trading chart but still relatively close in duration. For instance, if trading on a 1-minute chart, setting the bot's Timeframe to 5 minutes is advisable.
⚪ Entry
Traders have the flexibility to configure the bot according to their trading strategy, allowing them to choose whether the bot should engage in long positions only, short positions only or both. This customization ensures that the bot aligns with the trader's market outlook and risk tolerance.
⚪ Pyramiding
Pyramiding functionality is available to enhance the bot's trading strategy. If the current position experiences a drawdown by a specified number of points, the bot is programmed to add new positions to the existing one, potentially capitalizing on lower prices to average down the entry cost. To utilize this feature, access the settings panel, navigate to 'Properties,' and look for 'Pyramiding' to specify the number of times the bot can re-enter the market (e.g., setting it to 2 allows for two additional entries).
⚪ Risk Management
The bot incorporates several risk management methods, including a regular stop loss, trailing stop, and risk-reward-based stop loss and exit strategies. These features assist traders in managing their risk.
Stop Loss
Trailing Stop
⚪ Trading on specific days
This feature allows trading on specific days by setting which days of the week the bot can execute trades on. It enables traders to tailor their strategies according to market behavior on particular days.
⚪ Alerts
Alerts can be set for entry, exit, and risk management. This feature allows traders to automate their trading strategy, ensuring timely actions are taken according to predefined criteria.
█ How is Crypto Punk calculated?
The Crypto Punk Bot is a trading bot that utilizes a combination of price action analysis and elements inspired by Geometric Brownian Motion (GBM) to generate buy and sell signals for cryptocurrencies. The bot focuses on analyzing the difference between high and low prices over various timeframes, alongside estimates of drift (trend) and volatility derived from GBM principles.
Timeframe Analysis for Price Action
The bot examines multiple timeframes (e.g., daily, weekly) to identify the range between the highest and lowest prices within each period. This range analysis helps in understanding market volatility and the potential for significant price movements. The algorithm calculates the trading range by applying maximum and minimum functions to the set of prices over your selected timeframe. It then subtracts these values to determine the range's width. This method offers a quantitative measure of the asset's price volatility for the specified period.
Estimating Drift (Trend)
The bot estimates the drift component, which reflects the underlying trend or expected return of the cryptocurrency. The algorithm does this by estimating the drift (trend) using Geometric Brownian Motion (GBM), which involves determining an asset's average rate of return over time, reflecting the asset's expected direction of movement.
Estimating Volatility
Volatility is estimated by calculating the standard deviation of the logarithmic returns of the cryptocurrency's price over the same timeframe used for the drift calculation. Geometric Brownian Motion (GBM) involves measuring the extent of variation or dispersion in the returns of an asset over time. In the context of GBM, volatility quantifies the degree to which the price of an asset is expected to fluctuate around its drift.
Combining Drift and Volatility for Signal Generation
The bot uses the calculated drift and volatility to understand the current market conditions. A higher drift coupled with manageable volatility may indicate a strong upward trend, suggesting a potential buy signal. Conversely, a low or negative drift with increasing volatility might suggest a weakening market, triggering a sell signal.
█ Strategy Properties

arpit bollinger bandStrategy Overview:
This strategy utilizes Bollinger Bands based on a 20-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) with a standard deviation multiplier of 1.5. It is designed to generate early trading signals based on the relationship between the price action and the Bollinger Bands.
Bollinger Bands Calculation:
The upper Bollinger Band is calculated as the 20-period EMA of the closing prices plus 1.5 times the standard deviation of the same period.
The lower Bollinger Band is calculated as the 20-period EMA of the closing prices minus 1.5 times the standard deviation.
Entry Criteria:
Buy Signal: A buy signal is generated when the current candle's high exceeds the high of the candle two periods ago, which had closed below the lower Bollinger Band. This condition implies an anticipation of a bullish reversal.
Sell Signal: A sell signal is generated when the current candle's low falls below the low of the candle two periods ago, which had closed above the upper Bollinger Band. This condition suggests an anticipated bearish reversal.
Stop Loss and Take Profit:
The stop loss for a buy order is set slightly below the low of the current candle, and for a sell order, it is set slightly above the high of the current candle.
The take profit level is determined based on a predefined risk-reward ratio of 1:3. This means the take profit target is set at a distance three times greater than the distance between the entry price and the stop loss.
Risk Management:
The strategy includes an input option to adjust the risk-reward ratio, allowing for flexibility in managing the trade's potential risk versus reward.
Trade Execution:
The strategy automatically plots the buy and sell signals on the chart and executes the trades according to the defined conditions. It also visually indicates the stop loss levels for each trade.
Usage Notes:
This strategy is designed for use in the TradingView platform using Pine Script version 5.
It is important to backtest and paper trade the strategy before using it in live trading to understand its performance characteristics and risk profile.
The strategy should be used as part of a comprehensive trading plan, considering market conditions, trader risk tolerance, and personal trading goals.
Long EMA Strategy with Advanced Exit OptionsThis strategy is designed for traders seeking a trend-following system with a focus on precision and adaptability.
**Core Strategy Concept**
The essence of this strategy lies in use of Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) to identify potential long (buy) positions based on the relative positions of short-term, medium-term, and long-term EMAs. The use of EMAs is a classic yet powerful approach to trend detection, as these indicators smooth out price data over time, emphasizing the direction of recent price movements and potentially signaling the beginning of new trends.
**Customizable Parameters**
- **EMA Periods**: Users can define the periods for three EMAs - long-term, medium-term, and short-term - allowing for a tailored approach to capture trends based on individual trading styles and market conditions.
- **Volatility Filter**: An optional Average True Range (ATR)-based volatility filter can be toggled on or off. When activated, it ensures that trades are only entered when market volatility exceeds a user-defined threshold, aiming to filter out entries during low-volatility periods which are often characterized by indecisive market movements.
- **Trailing Stop Loss**: A trailing stop loss mechanism, expressed as a percentage of the highest price achieved since entry, provides a dynamic way to manage risk by allowing profits to run while cutting losses.
- **EMA Exit Condition**: This advanced exit option enables closing positions when the short-term EMA crosses below the medium-term EMA, serving as a signal that the immediate trend may be reversing.
- **Close Below EMA Exit**: An additional exit condition, which is disabled by default, allows positions to be closed if the price closes below a user-selected EMA. This provides an extra layer of flexibility and risk management, catering to traders who prefer to exit positions based on specific EMA thresholds.
**Operational Mechanics**
Upon activation, the strategy evaluates the current price in relation to the set EMAs. A long position is considered when the current price is above the long-term EMA, and the short-term EMA is above the medium-term EMA. This setup aims to identify moments where the price momentum is strong and likely to continue.
The strategy's versatility is further enhanced by its optional settings:
- The **Volatility Filter** adjusts the sensitivity of the strategy to market movements, potentially improving the quality of the entries during volatile market conditions.
The Average True Range (ATR) is a key component of this filter, providing a measure of market volatility by calculating the average range between the high and low prices over a specified number of periods. Here's how you can adjust the volatility filter settings for various market conditions, focusing on filtering out low-volatility markets:
Setting Examples for Volatility Filter
1. High Volatility Markets (e.g., Cryptocurrencies, Certain Forex Pairs):
ATR Periods: 14 (default)
ATR Multiplier: Setting the multiplier to a lower value, such as 1.0 or 1.2, can be beneficial in high-volatility markets. This sensitivity allows the strategy to react to volatility changes more quickly, ensuring that you're entering trades during periods of significant movement.
2. Medium Volatility Markets (e.g., Major Equity Indices, Medium-Volatility Forex Pairs):
ATR Periods: 14 (default)
ATR Multiplier: A multiplier of 1.5 (default) is often suitable for medium volatility markets. It provides a balanced approach, ensuring that the strategy filters out low-volatility conditions without being overly restrictive.
3. Low Volatility Markets (e.g., Some Commodities, Low-Volatility Forex Pairs):
ATR Periods: Increasing the ATR period to 20 or 25 can smooth out the volatility measure, making it less sensitive to short-term fluctuations. This adjustment helps in focusing on more significant trends in inherently stable markets.
ATR Multiplier: Raising the multiplier to 2.0 or even 2.5 increases the threshold for volatility, effectively filtering out low-volatility conditions. This setting ensures that the strategy only triggers trades during periods of relatively higher volatility, which are more likely to result in significant price movements.
How to Use the Volatility Filter for Low-Volatility Markets
For traders specifically interested in filtering out low-volatility markets, the key is to adjust the ATR Multiplier to a higher level. This adjustment increases the threshold required for the market to be considered sufficiently volatile for trade entries. Here's a step-by-step guide:
Adjust the ATR Multiplier: Increase the ATR Multiplier to create a higher volatility threshold. A multiplier of 2.0 to 2.5 is a good starting point for very low-volatility markets.
Fine-Tune the ATR Periods: Consider lengthening the ATR calculation period if you find that the strategy is still entering trades in undesirable low-volatility conditions. A longer period provides a more averaged-out measure of volatility, which might better suit your needs.
Monitor and Adjust: Volatility is not static, and market conditions can change. Regularly review the performance of your strategy in the context of current market volatility and adjust the settings as necessary.
Backtest in Different Conditions: Before applying the strategy live, backtest it across different market conditions with your adjusted settings. This process helps ensure that your approach to filtering low-volatility conditions aligns with your trading objectives and risk tolerance.
By fine-tuning the volatility filter settings according to the specific characteristics of the market you're trading in, you can enhance the performance of this strategy
- The **Trailing Stop Loss** and **EMA Exit Conditions** provide two layers of exit strategies, focusing on capital preservation and profit maximization.
**Visualizations**
For clarity and ease of use, the strategy plots the three EMAs and, if enabled, the ATR threshold on the chart. These visual cues not only aid in decision-making but also help in understanding the market's current trend and volatility state.
**How to Use**
Traders can customize the EMA periods to fit their trading horizon, be it short, medium, or long-term trading. The volatility filter and exit options allow for further customization, making the strategy adaptable to different market conditions and personal risk tolerance levels.
By offering a blend of trend-following principles with advanced risk management features, this strategy aims to cater to a wide range of trading styles, from cautious to aggressive. Its strength lies in its flexibility, allowing traders to fine-tune settings to their specific needs, making it a potentially valuable tool in the arsenal of any trader looking for a disciplined approach to navigating the markets.
Octopus Nest Strategy Hello Fellas,
Hereby, I come up with a popular strategy from YouTube called Octopus Nest Strategy. It is a no repaint, lower timeframe scalping strategy utilizing PSAR, EMA and TTM Squeeze.
The strategy considers these market factors:
PSAR -> Trend
EMA -> Trend
TTM Squeeze -> Momentum and Volatility by incorporating Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels
Note: As you can see there is a potential improvement by incorporating volume.
What's Different Compared To The Original Strategy?
I added an option which allows users to use the Adaptive PSAR of @loxx, which will hopefully improve results sometimes.
Signals
Enter Long -> source above EMA 100, source crosses above PSAR and TTM Squeeze crosses above 0
Enter Short -> source below EMA 100, source crosses below PSAR and TTM Squeeze crosses below 0
Exit Long and Exit Short are triggered from the risk management. Thus, it will just exit on SL or TP.
Risk Management
"High Low Stop Loss" and "Automatic High Low Take Profit" are used here.
High Low Stop Loss: Utilizes the last high for short and the last low for long to calculate the stop loss level. The last high or low gets multiplied by the user-defined multiplicator and if no recent high or low was found it uses the backup multiplier.
Automatic High Low Take Profit: Utilizes the current stop loss level of "High Low Stop Loss" and gets calculated by the user-defined risk ratio.
Now, follows the bunch of knowledge for the more inexperienced readers.
PSAR: Parabolic Stop And Reverse; Developed by J. Welles Wilders and a classic trend reversal indicator.
The indicator works most effectively in trending markets where large price moves allow traders to capture significant gains. When a security’s price is range-bound, the indicator will constantly be reversing, resulting in multiple low-profit or losing trades.
TTM Squeeze: TTM Squeeze is a volatility and momentum indicator introduced by John Carter of Trade the Markets (now Simpler Trading), which capitalizes on the tendency for price to break out strongly after consolidating in a tight trading range.
The volatility component of the TTM Squeeze indicator measures price compression using Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels. If the Bollinger Bands are completely enclosed within the Keltner Channels, that indicates a period of very low volatility. This state is known as the squeeze. When the Bollinger Bands expand and move back outside of the Keltner Channel, the squeeze is said to have “fired”: volatility increases and prices are likely to break out of that tight trading range in one direction or the other. The on/off state of the squeeze is shown with small dots on the zero line of the indicator: red dots indicate the squeeze is on, and green dots indicate the squeeze is off.
EMA: Exponential Moving Average; Like a simple moving average, but with exponential weighting of the input data.
Don't forget to check out the settings and keep it up.
Best regards,
simwai

Four WMA Strategy with TP and SLBasically I read a research paper on how they used different moving averages for long entries and short entries, and it kind of dawned on me that I always used the same one for long entry or exit, or even swing trading. So I smashed this together to see what would happen.
The strategy combines the use of four different WMAs for identifying trade entry points, along with a predefined take profit (TP) and stop loss (SL) for risk management. Here's a detailed description of its features and how it operates:
Main Features
1. **WMAs as the Core Indicator**:
- The strategy uses four WMAs with different lengths. Two WMAs (`longM1` and `longM2`) are used for long entry signals, and the other two (`shortM1` and `shortM2`) for short entry signals.
- The lengths of these WMAs are adjustable through input parameters.
2. **Trade Entry Conditions**:
- A long entry is signaled when the shorter WMA crosses under the longer WMA .
- Conversely, a short entry is signaled when the shorter WMA crosses under the longer WMA.
3. **Take Profit and Stop Loss**:
- The strategy includes a take profit and stop loss mechanism.
- The TP and SL levels are set as a percentage of the entry price, with the percentage values being adjustable through input parameters.
4. **Visual Representation**:
- The WMAs are plotted on the chart for visual aid, each with a distinct color for easy identification.
How It Works
- The strategy continuously monitors the crossing of WMAs to detect potential entry points for long and short positions.
- Upon detecting a long or short condition, it automatically enters a trade and sets the corresponding TP and SL levels based on the current price and the specified percentages.
- The strategy then actively manages the trade, exiting the position when either the TP or SL level is reached.
Drawbacks
- **Overreliance on WMAs**: The strategy heavily relies on WMAs for trade signals. While WMAs are useful for identifying trends, they might not always provide timely entry and exit signals.
- **Market Conditions**: It may not perform well in highly volatile or sideways markets where WMA crossovers could lead to false signals.
- **Risk Management**: The fixed percentage for TP and SL might not be suitable for all market conditions. Traders might need to adjust these values frequently based on market volatility and their risk tolerance.
Apparently I need to emphasize to use brains when using indicators and setting them up to achieve the results you can or want. Also risk of 12% is considered very high so I lowered the numbers to 5%, which tanked the profits, try adjusting them on your own.

Conclusion
The "Four WMA Strategy with TP and SL" is suitable for traders who prefer a moving average-based approach to trading, combined with a straightforward mechanism for risk management through take profit and stop loss. However, like all strategies, it should be used with an understanding of its limitations and ideally tested thoroughly in various market conditions before applying it to live trading.
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.
🔶 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: 1 tick
Stop Loss: 0.01 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 strategies built are realistic.

Cyatophilum SmartStrategy MakerThis indicator allows you to use any other indicator from the TradingView library and create complex entry and exit conditions with ease thanks to several external inputs. Add risk management to your strategy and backtest it before creating alerts!
Key Features:
1 — Entry Conditions: Traders can define their entry conditions using up to three sources. They can choose from several options such as "Cross," "Crossover," "Crossunder," "Above," "Below," or "Equal" for comparing the selected sources.
2 — Entry Gates: Users can set logical gates (e.g., "AND," "OR," "XOR," "NAND," "XNOR") to combine multiple entry conditions.
3 — Exit Conditions: Similar to entry conditions, traders can define exit conditions based on two sources and select from various comparison options.
4 — Stop Loss: The indicator allows users to enable or disable a stop-loss feature. The stop-loss value is calculated based on a percentage of the base order price.
5 — Take Profit: Traders can set multiple take-profit levels by specifying the number of take profits, a base percentage, and a step value. Take profits can be defined as a percentage from the total volume or the base order.
6 — Safety Orders (DCA): The indicator supports the use of safety orders (Dollar Cost Averaging) to help manage risks. Users can set the number of safety orders, price deviation, step scale, and volume scale.
7 — Backtest Settings: Traders can define the start and end periods for backtesting their strategy. This feature allows them to analyze the performance of their strategy within specific timeframes.
8 — Alerts: The indicator provides the option to create alerts for entry, exit, stop loss, take profit, and safety orders. Users can customize the alert messages using placeholders for dynamic values like price, symbol, and order size.
Wyckoff Range StrategyThe Wyckoff Range Strategy is a trading strategy that aims to identify potential accumulation and distribution phases in the market using the principles of Wyckoff analysis. It also incorporates the detection of spring and upthrust patterns.
Here's a step-by-step explanation of how to use this strategy:
Understanding Accumulation and Distribution Phases:
Accumulation Phase: This is a period where smart money (large institutional traders) accumulates a particular asset at lower prices. It is characterized by a sideways or consolidating price action.
Distribution Phase: This is a period where smart money distributes or sells a particular asset at higher prices. It is also characterized by a sideways or consolidating price action.
Input Variables:
crossOverLength: This variable determines the length of the moving average crossover used to identify accumulation and distribution phases. You can adjust this value based on the market you are trading and the time frame you are analyzing.
stopPercentage: This variable determines the percentage used to calculate the stop loss level. It helps you define a predefined level at which you would exit a trade if the price moves against your position.
Strategy Conditions:
Enter Long: The strategy looks for a crossover of the close price above the SMA of the close price with a length of crossOverLength and a crossover of the low price above the SMA of the low price with a length of 20. This combination suggests the start of an accumulation phase and a potential buying opportunity.
Exit Long: The strategy looks for a crossunder of the close price below the SMA of the close price with a length of crossOverLength or a crossunder of the high price below the SMA of the high price with a length of 20. This combination suggests the end of an accumulation phase and a potential exit signal for long positions.
Enter Short: The strategy looks for a crossunder of the close price below the SMA of the close price with a length of crossOverLength and a crossunder of the high price below the SMA of the high price with a length of 20. This combination suggests the start of a distribution phase and a potential selling opportunity.
Exit Short: The strategy looks for a crossover of the close price above the SMA of the close price with a length of crossOverLength or a crossover of the low price above the SMA of the low price with a length of 20. This combination suggests the end of a distribution phase and a potential exit signal for short positions.
Stop Loss:
The strategy sets a stop loss level for both long and short positions. The stop loss level is calculated based on the stopPercentage variable, which represents the percentage of the current close price. If the price reaches the stop loss level, the strategy will automatically exit the position.
Plotting Wyckoff Schematics:
The strategy plots different shapes on the chart to indicate the identified phases and patterns. Green and red labels indicate the accumulation and distribution phases, respectively. Blue triangles indicate spring patterns, and orange triangles indicate upthrust patterns.
To use this strategy, you can follow these steps:

Wunder Breakout botWunder Breakout bot
1. Wunder Breakout bot is based on the breakout of the trend line. Breakout is a technical trading strategy that is used to determine the moment of a trend line breakout on the price chart. It is based on the assumption that when price crosses a trend line, it signals a change in trend direction and the possible start of a new price movement.
2. The entry points for the trendline breakout strategy are based on the principle of breaking through a set trendline. This means that we look for the moment when the price of the asset crosses the trend line that we have established in order to enter a sell or buy position.
3. We use fixed take-profit and stop-loss, but you can use other risk management systems, based on the suggested settings.
4. Wunder Breakout bot script has added a function to calculate the risk per portfolio (your deposit). When this option is enabled, you get the calculation of the entry amount in dollars relative to your Stop Loss. You can chooseselect the percentage of risk per your portfolio in the settings. the percentage of risk per your portfolio in the settings. The loss will be calculated from the amount that will be displayed on the chart.
For example, if your deposit is $1000 and you set your risk at 1%, with a Stop Loss of 5%, your entry volume would be $200. The SL loss would be $10. $10 is your 1% risk or 1% of your deposit.
*Important! ** The risk per trade must be less than the Stop Loss value. If the risk is more than SL, you should use leverage.
The amount of funds included in the deal is calculated in dollars. This option was created if you want to send a dollar amount from Tradingview to the exchange. However, by specifying the volume in dollars, you will get the net profit and drawdown displayed incorrectly in the backtest results because TradingView calculates the backtest volume in contracts.
To display the correct net profit and drawdown values in Tradingview backtest results, use the "Volume in Contracts" option.
SPY 4 Hour Swing TraderThe purpose of this script is to spot 4 hour pivots that indicate ~30 trading day swings. As VIX starts to drop options trading will get more boring and as we get back on the bull and can benefit from swing trading strategy. Swing trading doesn't make a whole lot of sense when VIX is above 28. Seems to get best results on 4 hour chart for this one. This indicator spots a go long opportunity when the 5 ema crosses the 13 ema on the 4 hour along with the RSI > 50 and the ADX > 20 and Stoichastic values (smoothed line < 80 or line < 90) and close > last candle close and the True Range < 6. It also spots uses a couple different means to determine when to exit the trade. Sell condition is primarily when the 13 ema crosses the 5 ema and the MACD line crosses below the signal line and the smoothed Stoichastic appears oversold (greater than 60) and slop of RSI < -.2. Stop Losses and Take Profits are configurable in Inputs along with ability to include short trades plus other MACD and Stoichastic settings. If a stop loss is encountered the trade will close. Also once twice the expected move is encountered partial profits will taken and stop losses and take profits will be re-established based on most recent close. Also a VIX above 28 will trigger any open positions to close. If trying to use this for something other than SPXL it is best to update stop losses and take profit percentages and check backtest results to ensure proper levels have been selected and the script gives satisfactory results.
SPY 1 Hour Swing TraderThe purpose of this script is to spot 1 hour pivots that indicate ~5 to 6 trading day swings. Results indicate that swings are held approximately 5 to 6 trading days on average, over the last 6 years. This indicator spots a go long opportunity when the 5 ema crosses the 13 ema on the 1 hour along with the RSI > 50. It also spots uses a couple different means to determine when to exit the trade. Sell condition is primarily when the 13 ema crosses the 5 ema and the MACD line crosses below the signal line and the smoothed Stoichastic appears oversold (greater than 60). Stop Losses and Take Profits are configurable in Inputs along with ability to include short trades plus other MACD and Stoichastic settings. If a stop loss is encountered the trade will close. Also once twice the expected move is encountered partial profits will taken and stop losses and take profits will be re-established based on most recent close. Once long trades are exited, short trades will be initiated if recent conditions appeared oversold and input option for short trading is enabled. If trying to use this for something other than SPXL it is best to update stop losses and take profit percentages and check backtest results to ensure proper levels have been selected and the script gives satisfactory results.
