Parabolic SARThis is a redesign of the built-in Parabolic SAR indicator. I added a proper input system, an option to highlight initial points for both lines and an option to choose points width. So, customize it as you want.
Parabolic SAR was originally developed by J. Welles Wilder and described in his book "New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems" (1978). It is a trend-following indicator that can be used as a trailing stop loss.

SuperTrendThis is a redesign of the SuperTrend indicator. It removes stupid transitions between SuperTrend states and highlights initial points for both lines.
SuperTrend is a moving stop and reversal line based on the volatility (ATR).
Failure Swing Strategy (stop hunting) V1 (Made on XBT/USD 4h Bitmex)
This strategy is a first attempt to countertrade the false break of a key support/resistance.
If a candle breaks the level, but it comes back before close, it will trigger an order.
The Stop Loss is in %, the Take Profit is near the EMA.
There is a "volatility filter" to block orders when the price is near the EMA and a coefficient to adjust a little the Stop Loss and Take Profit according to the chart condition.
Average True Range Stop Loss CalculatorThis indicator takes the average of a series of ATR to calculate what I would consider an optimum stop loss placement represented in percentage (read below for full overview).
While the data is plotted what is most helpful are the actual numbers presented.
This indicator is most helpful on the daily timeframe but can be used for all timeframes such as the 4HR or 1HR.
This indicator should not be used alone. It should be used in conjunction with proper price action analysis. It’s also a great indicator if you chart using Value Channels. Ideally you want your stop placement to be below at least one core Value Channel boundary range. In addition to standard support and resistance and some key moving averages the market respects. This also works best when trading with the prevailing BIAS of the instrument (bull or bear).
Cryptos: Generally, that means you’re buying on retracements that fit the end of a structured move. The other option is using this in a clear up trending market where the pull backs are clearly being supported with buying.
FOREX: I use this in my FOREX swing trades for my stop placements. Keep in mind I primarily trade my trade system and use this indicator to ensure my stop placements I define based on VCs are within the ATR tolerance. I’ve found that ATR * 1.5 is the best for my trade system.
WTI: Helpful but I have different rules for when I trade WTI. I rely upon VCs and diagnal VCs much more when trading this.
Equities: Helpful but with the increase of volatility as well as uncertainty of Bias of the market-- this should be used as more of a guide than
Indicator Overview:
Value 1 (maroon): 3 Period ATR
Value 2 (green): 7 Period ATR
Value 3 (blue): 30 Period ATR
Value 4 (blue, bold): 90 Period ATR
Value 5 (green): 1 Period ATR
Value 6 – Prime Stop Loss Placement (red): Average of all above ATR multiplied by 1.5
Value 7 (red): Difference between Value 6 (prime stop loss) and current period move. This is an experimental value. Two ways to use this value. Use as a tighter stop loss placement. The other option is to use as a retrace target for purchase and using the Prime Stop Placement value as you’re stop loss.
All ATRs use the LOW price of the period. After testing both the low and close I’ve settled on the low to capture the most volatility you will typically experience.
Once again, this indicator should be used in conjunction with your proven trade system.
Also, by knowing what the values are within the indicator you could just eye ball what would be the best stop placement depending on the ATR or 1 or 2 ATRs you find most represent the volatility of what you are trading.
I will be expanding on this indicator by bringing in average measured moves as well as volume analysis and most likely with color changes and modifications.
Background:
While using and refining my trade system I've noticed that most moves happen in 3 periods. So we start there. The 7 period is good for a 24 hour market such as crypto (although weekend trading can be a hit or miss) and to some extent FOREX. The longer periods of 30 & 90 are to smooth out the data set. The final value of the 1 period is to bring a little more recency to the calculation.
Why multiply the average by 1.5? I've found in my own trading and system I built to be the best placement (in conjunction with VCs) to ensure you're stop isn't to close and is within the instrument you are trading volatility.
I'm looking at making this more intelligent as well as take into account volume and structured moves.
MTF Bollinger Bands, SuperTrend, TEMA Wave and ATR Stop LossThis script is a combination of useful overlay indicators that can be used for day trading or swing trading. You can use it for long term positions as well, but some tweaking may be required. I also added the multi time frame possibility for the majority of settings. This indicator gives you a lot of opportunities and trade setups. Default settings are made for day trading, using intraday time frames.
This script can display the following:
4 independent Bollinger Bands (MTF)
4 independent SuperTrends (MTF)
6 independent TEMAs (MTF)
ATR Stop loss for longs / shorts
Default settings display 3 Bollinger Bands, 2 TEMAs(I have found these two TEMAs particullarly useful, see screenshots below) and a signle SuperTrend.
Do not forget to always use a proper stop loss and risk management.
Here you can see the script in action in different markets:
BTC - BitMex - Setup before the drop from 7400 USD
BTC - BitMex - Setup before the drop from 8400 USD
BTC - BitMex - Setup before the pump to 7800 USD
BTC - BitMex - Setup before the pump to 6800 USD

NeoIchi TrailingThis is the separation of moving average parts from NeoIchi indicator with addition of four different ATR setting that can be used for Stop Loss and Trailing Stops. The NeoIchi indicator won't have any moving averages any more, the code is secured but every one have access to use this indicator on their charts.
Ehlers Instantaneous Trendline StrategyInstantaneous Trendline Strategy by John Ehlers from his book "Cybernetic Analysis for Stocks and Futures".
You can choose implementation of stop-loss. Don't forget to define correct spread for your instrument.
BitMex Trailing Stop StrategyThis script is designed for those who want to use BitMex's trailing stop. It's not meant to be used as entry exits, but rather to get an idea of how wide the trailing stop needs to be. I suggest you backtest with different values. The script can also be integrated into an existing strategy which does give entry/exits to act as its stop loss.
Double EMA with stop loss indicatorThis is an updated version of my previous stop loss script.
I've added a double EMA line and modified the stop as below;
In an uptrend....
1. a yellow dot will appear once it's time to move your stop. The yellow dot will display at the level of the stop loss. Place your stop 1 pip below the dot.
2. The yellow dot will only appear if a new higher low has formed and has been confirmed. Also the current candle must have broken the high of a previous bullish candle or the dot will not appear.
3. The dot will also appear if there is a likely reversal of the current trend.
Also works in downtrends.....
EAP Helper IndicatorThis is a basic indicator I am developing to assist with testing and trading the new EAP pullback strategy. If you are not a member of the EAP program by Steven Hart, then this indicator will not be helpful to you.
Features:
S/L Calculator
This displays your stop loss values based on an entry from the currently selected candle.
The S/L is calculated by adding the S/L size in pips to the close of your entry candle + the distance to the swing high (or swing low for shorts). By default, the indicator only looks back 3 candles for highs and lows, but this can be changed in the settings.
If the ATR is <= 19, the S/L is 20 pips above/below swings.
If the ATR is >= 20 but <= 29, the S/L is 20 pips.
If the ATR is >= 30 but <= 49, the S/L is 30 pips.
If the ATR is >= 50 but <= 99, the S/L is 50 pips.
If the ATR is >= 100 the S/L is 100 pips.
-------------------------
I will add more features as I think of them :)
Binque's Stop Loss IndicatorBinque's Stop Loss Indicator is a great way to visualize a trailing stop loss based on a percent from the high. i.e. If the high was $10 of a trading day and your stop loss was set at 5% (percent) then your chart would show a small dot 5% below the high of the day. This is a great way to quickly see a trailing stock idea. Change the color to match your back ground. Adjust your trailing stop loss to fit your trading style.
Note: This indicator is calculated off of the daily high.
XPloRR MA-Buy ATR-Trailing-Stop Long Term Strategy Beating B&HXPloRR MA-Buy ATR-MA-Trailing-Stop Strategy
Long term MA Trailing Stop strategy to beat Buy&Hold strategy
None of the strategies that I tested can beat the long term Buy&Hold strategy. That's the reason why I wrote this strategy.
Purpose: beat Buy&Hold strategy with around 10 trades. 100% capitalize sold trade into new trade.
My buy strategy is triggered by the EMA(blue) crossing over the SMA curve(orange).
My sell strategy is triggered by another EMA(lime) of the close value crossing the trailing stop(green) value.
The trailing stop value(green) is set to a multiple of the ATR(15) value.
ATR(15) is the SMA(15) value of the difference between high and low values.
Every stock has it's own "DNA", so first thing to do is find the right parameters to get the best strategy values voor EMA, SMA and Trailing Stop.
Then keep using these parameter for future buy/sell signals only for that particular stock.
Do the same for other stocks.
Here are the parameters:
Exponential MA: buy trigger when crossing over the SMA value (use values between 11-50)
Simple MA: buy trigger when EMA crosses over the SMA value (use values between 20 and 200)
Stop EMA: sell trigger when Stop EMA of close value crosses under the trailing stop value (use values between 8 and 16)
Trailing Stop #ATR: defines the trailing stop value as a multiple of the ATR(15) value
Example parameters for different stocks (Start capital: 1000, Order=100% of equity, Period 1/1/2005 to now):
BAR(Barco): EMA=11, SMA=82, StopEMA=12, Stop#ATR=9
Buy&HoldProfit: 45.82%, NetProfit: 294.7%, #Trades:8, %Profit:62.5%, ProfitFactor: 12.539

Buy&HoldProfit: 2925.86%, NetProfit: 4035.92%, #Trades:10, %Profit:60%, ProfitFactor: 6.36
BEKB(Bekaert): EMA=12, SMA=42, StopEMA=12, Stop#ATR=7
Buy&HoldProfit: 81.11%, NetProfit: 521.37%, #Trades:10, %Profit:60%, ProfitFactor: 2.617
SOLB(Solvay): EMA=12, SMA=63, StopEMA=11, Stop#ATR=8
Buy&HoldProfit: 43.61%, NetProfit: 151.4%, #Trades:8, %Profit:75%, ProfitFactor: 3.794
PHIA(Philips): EMA=11, SMA=80, StopEMA=8, Stop#ATR=10
Buy&HoldProfit: 56.79%, NetProfit: 198.46%, #Trades:6, %Profit:83.33%, ProfitFactor: 23.07
I am very curious to see the parameters for your stocks and please make suggestions to improve this strategy.

Simple Trailing stopSince my exchange doesn't support trailing stop I made a script for it.
It is fully configurable, which means you can set the bars for calculation, the offset and sources for trigger and calculation.
The original purpose for me was to send a command to my bot. If you like it please comment and check out my other scripts.
ATR+ (Stop Loss Indicator)This script is designed to aid in back-testing and trade execution.
It displays three sets of values - the teal colored value is the current ATR, the green colored value is your stop loss distance (in pips) below the most recent swing low for long trades , and the red colored value is your stop loss distance (in pips) above the most recent swing high for short trades .
You can change the stop loss settings to base your stop loss on a set pip amount or by however many multiples of the current ATR as you wish (eg. 1.5x ATR).
Feel free to ask any questions or edit the script without permission :)

B3 Edge Trail-TraderAnswer to the locked strategy... Formerly "High-Low Trader" .. Changed the name to Edge Trail Trader to delineate from the locked version, which is no different. You can add this one to your favorites now.
Similar to SuperTrend or the ATR trailing stop lines that are common-place in chart indicator circles, the B3 High-Low Trail-Trader works as a back-break line to flip binary long and short biasing. Here is the strategy set to 7 bars back. You can find this style of trading system in several books, and there are many ways to come to the trailing stop line, so I imagine the bars back length can be slid around to suit certain charts. This happens to be my favorite trailing line.
CDC ATR Trailing Stop V1Based on the standard ATR trailing stop indicator.
A few minor tweaks as used in Chaloke.com's community
B3 Edge TrailB3 Edge Trail is similar to a SuperTrend or ATR stopline system. It is based on the average of the highs and lows, and when back-broken, the binary bias flips. Simple as pie to use, just set your input to whatever suits your chart. The more "bars back" length the less flipping, then if you lower that input number it will result in an increase in sensitivity.
Enjoy, and now that TradingView has made it easy to do, I will be offering access to the strategies I have made based on my indicators. These will be available on the web eventually.
Parabolic GlitterThis indicator overlays a series of Parabolic Stop And Reverses (SARs) to continuously illustrate trends as they form in addition to a range of good possible levels at which to place stop orders.
The Initial Start argument gives the minimum value for the SAR function's "Start" argument. The Increment/Start Ratio argument gives the ratio of the SAR function's "Increment" and "Start" arguments (i.e. SAR default is Start = 0.02, Increment = 0.02, therefore Increment/Start Ratio = 1). The same logic applies to the Max/Start Ratio Argument (i.e. SAR default is Start = 0.02, Max = 0.2, therefore Max/Start Ratio = 10).
The Adaptive Coloring argument determines whether the plotting points are red in downtrends and green in uptrends, or if all the plotted points are given the same color (defaults to silver).
